In oriental paintings, there is Luo-kuan that expressed in a single picture by compressing the artist's information. Such Luo-kuan includes various information such as the title of the work or the name of the artist. Therefore, information about Luo-kuan is considered important to those who collect or enjoy oriental paintings. However, most of the letters in the Luo-kuan are difficult kanji, kanzai, or various shapes, so it is difficult for the ordinary people to interpret. In this paper, we developed an Luo-kuan search application to easily check the information of the Luo-kuan. The application uses a search algorithm that analyzes the captured Luo-kuan image and sends it to the server to output information about the Luo-kuan candidates that are most similar to the Luo-kuan images taken from the database in the server. We also compared and analyzed the accuracy of the algorithm based on 170 Luo-kuan data in order to find out the ranking of the Luo-kuan that matched the Luo-kuan among the candidates. Accuracy Analysis Experimental Results The accuracy of the search algorithm of this application is confirmed to be about 90%, and it is anticipated that it will be possible to develop a platform to automatically analyze and search images in a big data environment by supplementing the optimizing algorithm and multi-threading algorithm.

원자력 발전소 계측 제어 시스템, 의료 관련 시스템, 항공 관련 시스템 등 실생활과 밀접한 시스템에 소프트웨어의 사용이 점차 증가하고 있다. 이러한 시스템에서 소프트웨어의 오류는 예기치 않는 사고를 유발하여 인명, 재산상의 심각한 타격을 줄 수 있다. 그러므로 고신뢰도 소프트웨어의 개발 시에는 반드시 시스템의 안전성을 보장해 주어야 한다. 역방향 안전성 분석 방법은 시스템의 안전성을 분석하는 한가지 방법으로서 시스템의 위험 상태를 정의하고 그 위험의 원인들을 추적, 분석함으로써 안전성에 대한 효율적인 분석을 수행할 수 있는 장점을 갖는다. 이 논문에서는 소프트웨어 개발 초기 단계에서 안전성을 분석할 수 있는 방법으로 Colored Petri Nets(CPN)에 기반을 둔 역방향 안전성 분석 방법을 제시한다. 또한 CPN 역방향 안전성 분석 도구인 SAC(Safety Analyzer for CPN)의 설계 및 구현에 대해 언급한다. SAC은 기존의 상용 CPN 모델링 도구인 Design/CPN과 연계하여 사용될 수 있으므로 CPN으로 모델링된 시스템의 안전성을 분석할 수 있다는 장점이 있다. 이 논문에서는 예제로 자동 교통 제어 시스템의 일부를 CPN으로 모델링하고 SAC을 이용한 분석 과정을 기술한다.Abstract In safety-critical systems such as nuclear power plants, medical machines, and avionic systems which are closely related with our livings, the usage of software in the controlling part is growing rapidly. Since software errors in safety-critical systems may cause serious accidents leading to financial or human damages, system safety should be ensured during and after development of a system. A backward safety analysis technique defines system hazards and tries to trace their causes by analyzing system states backward. In this paper, we provide a backward safety analysis technique based on Colored Petri Nets(CPN), which is applicable to the early software development phase. Also Safety Analyzer for CPN(SAC), the supporting tool, is designed and implemented. Since SAC is compatible with Design/CPN, a commercial tool for supporting CPN, it can be applicable to analyze safety in practical problems. As an example, we model a part of the traffic light control system using CPN and analyze safety properties of the model using the SAC tool.

An experimental study was performed estimating COP(Coefficient of Performance) of air-conditioning cycle using inverter scroll compressor with and without $Al_2O_3$ nano particle. All experiments were done for various compressor speeds from 1000~4000 rpm and used the inverter controller called CANDY to change the compressor rpm. The air-conditioning cycle components in the apparatus were used as same with components of YF hybrid car. To estimate the COP, this study measured the temperature and pressure at inlets and outlets of compressor, condenser, and evaporator. And also measured the compressor input power using Powermeter. Through the experiments, the maximum error to estimate COP was shown about ${\pm}6.09%$ at 3500rpm. The COP of refrigeration cycle with $Al_2O_3$ nano-particle was similar with that of the base cycle without nano-particle between 1000~3000 rpm of the compressor speed. But, This study showed that the COP of the cycle with $Al_2O_3$ over 3000 rpm of the compressor speed was higher than that of the base cycle due to the higher heat transfer rate increased in the evaporator from the higher oil flow rate inside the cycle as well known. Those results can be used the basic and fundamental data to design the air-conditioning cycle using inverter scroll compressor with $Al_2O_3$ nano particle.

In this paper, we implemented a three dimensional image display system using stereogram and holographic optical memory techniques which can store many images and reconstruct them automatically. In this system, to store and reconstruct stereo images, incident angle of reference beam must be controlled in real time, so we used BPH(binary phase hologram) and LCD(liquid crystal display) for controlling reference beam. The reference beams are acquired by Fourier transform of BPHs which designed with SA(simulated annealing)algorithm, and the BPHs are represented on the LCD with the 0.05 seconds time interval using application software for reconstructing the stereo images. And input images are represented on the LCD without polarizer/analyzer for maintaining uniform beam intensities regardless of the brightness of input images. The input images and BPHs are edited using application software(Photoshop) with having the same recording scheduled time interval in storing. The reconstructed stereo images are acquired by capturing the output images with CCD camera at the behind of the analyzer which transforms phase information into brightness information of images. In output plane, we used a LCD shutter that is synchronized to a monitor that display alternate left and right eye images for depth perception. We demonstrated optical experiment which store and reconstruct four stereo images in BaTiO$_3$ repeatedly using the proposed holographic optical memory techniques.

Recently, neural network-based speech recognition has been studied to utilize the adaptivity and learnability of neural network models. However, conventional neural network models have difficulty in the co-articulation processing and the boundary detection of similar phonmes of the Korean speech. Also, in case of using one phonotopic map, learning speed may dramatically increase and inaccuracies may be caused because homogeneous learning and recognition method should be applied for heterogenous data. Hence, in this paper, a neural net typewriter has been designed using a hierarchical self-organizing classifier(HSOC), and related algorithms are presented. This HSOC, during its learing stage, distributed phoneme data on hierarchically structured multiple phonotopic maps, using Kohonen's self-organizing feature maps(SOFM). Presented and experimented in this paper were the algorithms for deciding the number of maps, map sizes, the selection of phonemes and their placement per map, an approapriate learning and preprocessing method per map. If maps are divided according to a priorlinguistic knowledge, we would have difficulty in acquiring linguistic knowledge and how to alpply it(e.g., processing extended phonemes). Contrarily, our HSOC has an advantage that multiple phonotopic maps suitable for given input data are self-organizable. The resulting three korean phonotopic maps are optimally labelled and have their own optimal preprocessing schemes, and also confirm to the conventional linguistic knowledge.

The final goal of this research is to develop a botanical biofiltration system, which combines green interior, biofiltering, and automatic irrigation, which can purify indoor air pollutants according to indoor space and the size of biofilter. The biofilter used in this experiment was designed as an integral form of water metering pump, water tank, blower, humidifier, and multi-level planting space in order to be more suitable for indoor space utilization. This study was performed to compare indoor air quality between the space adjacent to a botanical biofilter and the space away from the biofilter (control) without generation of artificial indoor air pollutants, and to evaluate plant growth depending on multiple floors within the biofilter. Each concentration of indoor air pollutants such as TVOCs, monoxide, and dioxide in the space treated with the biofilter was lower than that of control. Dracaena sanderiana ‘Vitoria’ and Epipremnum aureum ‘N Joy’ also showed normal growth responses regardless of multiple floors within the biofilter. Hence, it was confirmed that the wall-typed botanical biofilter suitable for indoor plants was effective for indoor air purification.

Existing attending management systems require a high cost and are lack of convenience. In this paper, we propose a convenient and practical attending management system as follows: First, our system allows us to construct an attendance book in an easy and simple way. A professor does not have to provide the information of students using the small screen of his smartphone. Instead, each student manages his own information via the app designed for a student in our system. Then the professor can construct the attendance book using another app designed for the professor by confirming the requests from the app designed for a student. Second, our system enables a professor to utilize the pictures of students as well as other information of students to have a good relationship with students. Third, our system provides a functionality of checking attendance automatically by calling the names of students via the app designed for the professor. Then the professor has only to match the name with the face of each student. Fourth, our system provides a functionality of checking attendance in a very fast manner. Our system can complete this behavior within a short time since all students can join the attendance simultaneously by using the app designed for the student. Fifth, our system can prevent an illegal attendance easily by utilizing the distance information.

The user interfaces of electronic-book (e-book) readers in the e-book market are highly diverse, and this has led to major usability issues. In this paper, we analyze user preferences in terms of feature-setting options and the use of touchscreen actions in the six most commonly used e-book readers for smartphnoes. We identify alternatives for these features, which can enhance the usability of e-book readers, based on these user preferences. The survey results for the feature-setting options show that it is desirable to support at least eight background colors, as well as the ability to specify the color of the background icons. Adjusting the screen brightness using a setting bar with the support of an auto-brightness option is desirable, as in using +/- buttons to adjust the font size, as well as approximately 10 font faces. We find that it is desirable to support fade, slide, scroll and curl page-turing options, in addition to a simple non-animated page-turning effect, and that page movement should be accomplished using a scroll bar with the support of the page movement features by entering a page number, and by using the table of contents as well as bookmarks. The survey results on the use of touchscreen options indicated that it is useful to be able to configure the screen layout of an e-book reader by dividing it into three areas: left, right, and center. And then, when users briefly touch the left and right areas, it is ideal to move to the previous and subsequent pages, respectively; and when they briefly touch the center region, it is desirable to display a touch feature menu. We believe that the results of this study may provide guidance in the design of user interfaces for e-book readers.

In order to reduce the uncertainties and improve the air flow field, objective analysis using asynoptic observational data is chosen as a method that enhances the reality of meteorology. In surficial data and their numerical interpolation for improving the interpretation of meteorological components, objective analysis scheme should perform a smooth interpolation, detect and remove the bad data and carry out internal consistency analysis. For objective analysis technique which related to data reliability and error suppression, we carried out two quality control methods. In site quality control, asynoptic observational data at urban area revealed low representation by the complex terrain and buildings. In case of wind field, it was more effective than temperature field when it were interpolated near waterbody data. Many roads, buildings, subways, vehicles are bring about artificial heat which left out of consideration on the simulation of air flow field. Therefore, in temperature field, objective analysis for more effective result was obtained when surficial data were interpolated as many as possible using value quality control rather than the selection of representative site.
