This paper makes a preparatory attempt to reconstruct 'the Korean Science Culture' toward which I think the Koreans should direct and orient themselves rather than describe the history of the science culture in Korea. This task requires us to define 'science culture.' So I propose, based on the definitions of science culture so far made, to consider the model of 'Humanized Science Culture' as a regulating ideal of the Korean Science Culture. To support the model, analyzing the concept of 'science literacy' of the 2061 Project, I posit the model of KDSC (Korean Designer of Science Culture) as the Koreans who will actually come to design the Korean Science Culture. KDSC refers to 'a reasonable man' who will represent a desirable Korean, rather than to a natural Korean. Then I spell out the conditions of becoming a KDSC and scrutinize the philosophical backbones of those conditions. Finally, I make a few suggestions for developing a program of designing and implementing the Korean Science Culture from the viewpoint of a model of KDSC.

We need to establish a systematic and consistent program in order to enhance 'science culture.' Such a program cannot be obtained without understanding the methods of doing science, with which the philosophers of science have been concerned. I divide the historical development of the philosophical understandings of doing science into three as follows: 1) the 'normative' philosophy of science, 2) the 'historical' philosophy of science and 3) the 'naturalized' philosophy of science. Based upon the classification, I propose the 'critical constructionism' and explicate its theses. I then argue that critical constructionism can incorporate the strengths of the above schools of philosophies of science. Considering the cross-disciplinary nature of the science studies, it is claimed that critical constructionism alone can mediate and facilitate the collaborative understanding of science and contribute to enhancing the science culture because of its comprehensive understandings of the methods of doing science.

최근의 자연과학 책들은 몇가지 특징을 보인다. 우선 양적인 팽창과 내용의 다양화를 들 수 있다. 또 국내 저술이 늘고 있는 가운데 정보과학.환경문제에 관한 책에도 관심이 높았다. 학제간 연구의 결과물도 여러 분야의 학자들에게 의미있는 일이었다.

Science cultures in the dimension of social interaction must be correlated with science cultures or science literacy in the dimension of psychological interaction. In order to develop a mature science culture, it must be assumed 1) that a science culture in a society ran be evaluated and 2) that we have to set up the criteria for evaluating it. This paper, based on the assumptions, makes an attempt to analyze the concept of science literacy underlying the PISA (Programme for International Student Assessment) conducted by OECD. The analyses are driven by the questions such as 'which philosophical backgrounds are absorbed into the concept of PISA' science literacy?' and 'What suggestions can be found with respect to the goal of enhancing the science culture?' In conclusion, the science literacy in PISA reflects the elements proposed by logical empiricism, naturalized philosophy of science, and social constructivism, which are being incorporated by the 'collaboration research program' conducted by the newly-emerging interdisciplinary field of 'science of science.' Finally, some further suggestions are added to the analyses to pursue more positive directions to induce mature science cultures in our society.

기존 초해상화 방법들은 주로 자연 영상에 대해서는 많이 다뤄져 왔지만 단조$로운 배경과 복잡한 문양, 질감을 가진 문화재 영상에 대해 적용한 사례가 많지 않다. 또한 대부분의 초해상화 기술은 현재 딥러닝을 적용하고 있지만 복잡도와 구현 난이도에서 상대적으로 수월한 비딥러닝 방법을 사용하여 4 배와 8 배로 초해상화를 실현하는 연구 또한 많지 않다. 본 연구에서는 선형 매핑을 이용한 SI (Super Interpolation)을 기반으로 하여 2 배까지 초해상화에 특화된 기존 연구를 문화재 영상에 대하여 4 배 및 8 배로 초해상화 하였다. 간단한 윤곽선 방향 분석 및 선형 매핑으로 4 배 초해상화에서는 PSNR 값을 0.44dB 가량 개선하였으며, 8 배 초해상화에서는 PSNR 값을 0.31dB 가량 개선하였다. 또한 결과 영상에서도 단순 보간법인 Bicubic Interpolation 보다 더욱 선명하고 질감을 잘 표현하는 것을 알 수 있다.

문화재 영상 데이터는 방대한 양으로 인해 고해상도로 모두 저장이 어렵거나 시간이 지나 상대적으로 화질이 낮은 영상들이 다수 존재하기에 초해상화가 필요한 상황이 많다. 따라서 본 논문에서 처음으로 문화재 영상에 특화된 4 배 및 8 배 딥러닝 기반 초해상화 방식을 제안한다. 문화재 영상 데이터는 배경이 단조롭고 물체가 영상 중간에 위치한다는 특징이 있어 이를 고려해 중간 부분에서만 패치를 추출하는 방식을 적용하여 의미 있는 패치로 학습이 되도록 한다. 또 자연 영상 데이터 셋인 DIV2K 를 사용해 학습하는 방식과 직접 구성한 문화재 데이터 셋을 이용해 학습하는 방식, 그 둘을 적절히 함께 사용하여 학습하는 전이 학습 방법까지 세 가지로 학습하여 초해상화의 성능을 향상시키는 방법을 제안한다. 그 결과, 쌍삼차 보간법(Bicubic interpolation)보다 4 배 초해상화에서는 약 1.25dB, 8 배 초해상화에서는 약 1.26dB 의 성능 개선을 확인하였으며, 단순 DIV2K 로 학습한 방식보다는 4 배에서는 0.06dB, 8 배에서는 0.17dB 의 성능 개선을 확인하였다.

Since ancient times, legends and tales have been handed down with a spirituality, shamanistic meaning, and imagination. Among many tales about people and animal footprints that are handed down in various parts of Korea, Changnyeong's 'Munhojang Footprint' is the first case in which the physical evidence(footprints) that the main character has left was identified as a dinosaur footprint. In this study, we performed a scientific analysis based on the basic data collection, distribution pattern of 'Munhojang Footprint', three-dimensional digital recording and visualization, as well as case analysis and humanitic review of footprints in tales and legends. The Munhojang Footprints has long been known as human footprints left in the natural rock due to its shape and preservation status. A new analysis that the Munhojang footprints (composed of 13 footprints) are dinosaur tracks shows social perceptions of the ancient people, characterized by the fear of supernatural beings and the limits of scientific interpretation. Through this scientific and humanistic exploration of Munhojang Footprint that are passed down from generation to generation as legends, pray for peace and well-being of the village through rituals and rituals every year, and have been preserved and managed as practical evidence, it is expected that traditional culture and natural heritage will be linked and mutual value will be enhanced.

This thesis investigates the complex functions of the magic lantern in illusionism and enlightment which was the most popular visual media and the direct ancestor of cinema. Especially, the thesis focuses on the characteristics of magic lantern's images which had been varied with the scientific and technological development. During the early period of the magic lantern, from the late 18th century to the beginning of the 19th century, it frightened viewers by showing magic images with ghosts and spectres, 'phantasmagoria', and wondered with images of natural catastropes and interesting stories like fables and fairy tales, which fulfilled the entertainment function. Since the mid 19th century the magic lantern began to show not only pictures of the 'scientific themes' on the earth, nature and human, but also them of the ethnological on the far, exotic worlds like Africa, Amazon and Syberia etc. from the European perspective. These contents conducted the educative function and contributed to the process of Enlightment to the peoples in the pre-modern age. The two functions of the magic lantern such as entertainment and education had been neither historically followed, nor clearly divided, but the one was predominant according to the development of lantern techniques as well as the changes of the world view and the culture of the time. The entertainment function of the magic lantern based on the visual fantacy did exist in the late 19th century further, and also in the late industrial society, even in the age of highly developed science and technology, viewers want rather 're-enchantment' by illusionism than facts and truths on the reality. This is an essential characteristic of the moving image media, as it had already been presented in the images of the magic lantern.
