인공위성영상을 이용하여 벡터 지도 생성은 지형에 따른 건물, 도로, 농지 등에 관한 벡터를 추출하는 작업이 필요하다. 이 작업의 정확도는 지도의 정확도와 상관관계가 있기 때문에 건물 추출의 정확성이 달라진다. 따라서 건물추출의 정확성을 향상시키기 위해 본 연구에서는 위성영상에서 건물 추출 알고리즘을 제안하였다. 이 알고리즘은 인공신경망을 이용하여 건물의 그림자를 추적하고 이를 중심으로 건물위치와 외형을 추정하는 알고리즘을 제안하고 실험하였으며, 양호한 결과를 얻었다.

While artificial intelligence is rapidly replacing human jobs, the art field where human creativity is important is considered an exception. There are currently several AI mastering services in the field of mastering music, a profession at the border between art and technology. In general, the quality of AI mastering is considered to be inferior to the work of a human professional mastering engineer. In this paper, acoustic analysis, listening experiments, and expert interviews were conducted to compare AI and human experts. In the acoustic analysis, In the analysis of audio, there was no significant difference between the results of professional mastering engineers and the results of artificial intelligence. In the listening experiment, the non-musicians could not distinguish between the sound quality of the professional mastering engineer's work and the artificial intelligence work. The group of musicians showed a preference for a specific sound source, but the preference for a specific mastering did not appear significantly. In an expert interview, In expert interviews, respondents answered that there was no significant difference in quality between the two mastering services, and the biggest difference was the communication method between the mastering service provider and the user. In addition, as data increases, it is expected that artificial intelligence mastering will achieve rapid quality improvement and further improvement in communication.

Although the technology for prediction or analysis using artificial intelligence is constantly developing, a black-box problem does not interpret the decision-making process. Therefore, the decision process of the AI model can not be interpreted from the user's point of view, which leads to unreliable results. We investigated the problems of artificial intelligence and explainable artificial intelligence using Blockchain to solve them. Data from the decision-making process of artificial intelligence models, which can be explained with Blockchain, are stored in Blockchain with time stamps, among other things. Blockchain provides anti-counterfeiting of the stored data, and due to the nature of Blockchain, it allows free access to data such as decision processes stored in blocks. The difficulty of creating explainable artificial intelligence models is a large part of the complexity of existing models. Therefore, using the point cloud to increase the efficiency of 3D data processing and the processing procedures will shorten the decision-making process to facilitate an explainable artificial intelligence model. To solve the oracle problem, which may lead to data falsification or corruption when storing data in the Blockchain, a blockchain artificial intelligence problem was solved by proposing a blockchain-based explainable artificial intelligence model that passes through an intermediary in the storage process.

If the Nakdong River estuary is to be sustainable, land use management practices need to consider bird habitat requirements, especially given that the area serves as an important migratory bird sanctuary. In this study, bird habitats found in the Nakdong River estuary were classified into 11 different types including Phragmites australiss, mud flat, farmland, open surface in freshwater, sand bar, riparian forest, Scirpus planiculmis, waterway, construction, grasslands, and open surface in sea or brackish water. Taking into consideration the regional characteristics, habitat properties, and landscape indices, a total of 12 study sites were analyzed. Mud flat, construction, farmland, and P. australis account for 80% of the total land area. The high area ratio of construction and farmland to other types of habitat revealed a high amount of historical human activity and intervention in the area. Both patch numbers as well as patch density were high in West Nakdong River, Samrak Waterfront, Maekdo River, and Daejeo Floodgate, with these areas showing the greatest fragmentation as well. Total numbers of species and individuals had a positive correlation with the area and the number of habitat types. Findings suggest that protecting the habitat area, especially in S. planiculmis, is the most important factor for bird habitat management and that future development could result in habitat loss, having a profoundly adverse impact on bird populations. Therefore, it is important that the total area should be carefully protected by land use regulations in order to ensure that the Nakdong River estuary maintains its functional integrity as a migratory bird sanctuary.

MRI is superior when contrasted to help the organization generate artifacts resolution, but also affect the diagnosis and create a image that can not be read. Metal is inserted into the tooth, it is necessary to often be inhibited in imaging by causing the geometric distortion due to the majority and if the difference between the magnetic susceptibility of a ferromagnetic material or paramagnetic reducing them. The purpose of this study is to conduct a metal artefact in accordance with the analysis using a diamagnetic material. The magnetic material include a wire for the orthodontic bracket and a stainless steel was used as a diamagnetic material was used copper, zinc, bismuth. Testing equipment is sequenced using 1.5T, 3T was used was measured using a SE, TSE, GE, EPI. A self-produced phantom material was used for agarose gel (10%) to a uniform signal artifacts causing materials are stainless steel were tested by placing in the center of the phantom and cover inspection of the positive cube diamagnetic material of 10mm each length.After a measurement artefact artifact zone settings area was calculated using the Wand tool After setting the Low Threshold value of 10 in the image obtained by subtracting images, including magnetic material from a pure tool phantom images using Image J. Metal artifacts occur in stainless steel metal artifact reduction was greatest in the image with the bismuth diamagnetic materials of copper and zinc is slightly reduced, but the difference in degree will not greater. The reason for this is thought to be due to hayeotgi offset most of the susceptibility in bismuth diamagnetic susceptibility of most small ferromagnetic. Most came with less artifacts in image of bismuth in both 1.5T and 3T. Sequence-specific artifact reduction was most reduced artifacts from the TSE 1.5T 3T was reduced in the most artifacts from SE. Signal-to-noise ratio was the lowest SNR is low, appears in the implant, the 1.5T was the Implant + Bi Cu and Zn showed similar results to each other. Therefore, the results of artifacts variation of diamagnetic material, magnetic susceptibility (${\chi}$) is the most this shows the reduced aspect lower than the implant artificial metal artifacts criteria in the video using low bismuth susceptibility to low material the more metal artifacts It was found that the decrease. Therefore, based on the study on the increase, the metal artifacts reduction for the whole, as well as dental prosthesis future orthodontic materials in a way that can even reduce the artifact does not appear which has been pointed out as a disadvantage of the solutions of conventional metal artifact It is considered to be material.

In this paper, we theoretically examine the characteristics of an Artificial Magnetic Conductor (AMC) constructed of a perfect electric conductor and a normal material having permittivity ε_r, permeability μ_r, and thickness L. First, we derived rigorous equations to describe the infinite AMC structure. Then, we studied how the AMC's characteristics are affected by changes in ε_r, μ_r and L. The operating center frequency exhibiting a 0° reflection coefficient phase occurs when L is one quarter of a guide wavelength. Therefore, the AMC thickness can be reduced by using a material having a high product of ε_r and μ_r. As the ratio μ_r/ε_r increases, the bandwidth of the AMC increases (maximum value: 200 %), and its operating frequency decreases. We also find out he bandwidth of the AMC is improved by introducing a loss in the material. To validate the AMC, we design a dipole antenna on the AMC and demonstrate a relationship between AMC phase and dipole antenna's operating frequency by investigating the dipole on the AMC with different pairs of ε_r and μ_r.

This study was to examine music preferences of school-aged cochlear implant(CI) recipients in comparison with normal hearing(NH) children. Participants were 12 CI recipients and 155 NH children. CI children were recruited from a hospital in Seoul and they had cochlear implants for longer than two years(M = 4.7). NH children were randomly sampled. All participants were asked to respond to a questionnaire and rate their music preferences. The results showed that while 58.33% of CI recipients preferred child voices, 71.61% of NH children preferred adult voices. For preferred frequency range, both of CI and NH groups preferred higher frequency. With regard to preferred musical styles, while CI children gave the highest rating(M = 3.58) to Korean folk songs on the 5-point Likert scale, popular music and TV and soundtrack music were found to be the highest-rated styles(M = 3.83) for NH children. These results indicate that self-rated music preferences of CI recipients may be affected by a musical environment that these children have experienced. The results also implies that the provision of appropriate musical input and experiences would significantly affect future music preferences and appreciation of CI children. Providing useful information about music preferences of CI recipients in comparison with NH children, this study has significant implications for further studies on this population.

In 2021, AI basics were introduced in the high school curriculum. There are many worries that the problem of utilization-oriented education will be repeated with the introduction of artificial intelligence education rather than the principles that occurred when ICT was applied to education in the past. Most of the existing AI education platforms focus only on the use of AI. For artificial intelligence education of middle school students, there are difficulties in learning about the process by which artificial intelligence derives results and learning the principles of artificial intelligence algorithms. Recently, as the educational application of metaverse has become a hot topic, research has been started to improve learning achievement by arousing students' immersion and interest. This research developed educational game contents about decision tree algorithm using metaverse as educational contents that can be used in middle school AI education. By applying games to education, it was intended to increase students' interest and immersion in artificial intelligence, and to increase educational effectiveness. In this paper, the educational effectiveness, difficulty, and level of interest were analyzed for pre-service teachers regarding the developed game content. Based on this, a future principle-oriented artificial intelligence education method was suggested.

For given the importance of elementary school students developing the ability to solve problems using artificial intelligence (AI), problem-solving abilities should be developed using AI along with education to develop problem-solving abilities. Such students need a form that allows them to understand the concepts and principles of AI and to be easily educated in a fun way to understand basic understanding of how AI works. To this end, this study planned an 8-hour AI convergence program and operated based on self-driving cars, demonstrating that it was effective in improving elementary school students' problem-solving abilities, creativity, and AI understanding. As a result of operating the camp, students' understanding of AI was 3.56 (standard deviation 0.85), 4.00 (standard deviation 0.71), and t-value was -5.412 (p<0.001), indicating statistically improved understanding of AI, and high satisfaction and interest of students. In the future, it will be necessary to develop an educational program that allows elementary school students to devise their own ideas and create products to which AI models can be applied.

This study aimed to present a method to effectively suppress metal artifacts caused by spinal fusion surgery during spinal MRI study. For this purpose, a phantom made of spinal surgery screws was created to reproduce the metal artifact. Then, images were acquired with 1.5T and 3.0T MRI to evaluate changes in metal artifacts according to magnetic field strength. In addition, metal artifacts were evaluated by increasing the receive bandwidth to 200, 400 and 800 Hz/PX. As a result, metal artifacts occurring in images obtained from the 1.5T MRI decreased by approximately 52.2% compared to images obtained from the 3.0T MRI, showing a significant difference (p<0.05). In particular, the signal loss and signal pile up areas were reduced by approximately 52.81% and 42.71%, respectively, showing a significant effect in suppressing metal artifacts. On the other hand, when images were acquired while increasing the receive bandwidth from 200 to 800 Hz/PX, there was no significant effect, with a decrease of up to 8.93% for the 1.5T MRI and up to 10.98% for the 3.0T MRI (p>0.05). As a result of this study, increasing the receive bandwidth reduced signal loss and reduced some metal artifacts, but did not have a significant effect because it did not suppress signal pile up. However, when the magnetic field strength was reduced from 3.0T to 1.5T, signal loss and signal pile up were greatly reduced, effectively improving the metal artifact. Therefore, in order to suppress metal artifacts caused by spinal fusion surgery, study using a low magnetic field MRI can be said to be the most effective method.
