As an investigation for utilization of ascidian tunic carotenoids as a food color additives, we attempted to collect the volatile thermal degradation compounds from ascidian tunic carotenoids. Oxygenate volatile compounds were extracted by simultaneous distillation and extraction/concentration apparatus and analyzed by gas chromatography and mass spectrometery. Total 63 compounds were identified and some of them were caused by thermal degradation. They included 1,3,5-trimethylbenzene, 3,5,5-trimethyl-3-cyclohexen-1-ol, 3,5,5-trimethyl-3-cyclohexen-1-one, 1,1,2,3-tetramethyl-2-cyclohexen-5-ol, 1,1,2,3-tetramethyl-2-cyclohexen-5-one, 2,3,4,4-tetramethyl-6-hydroxy-2-cyclohexene-1-one, 1,2,3,8-tetrahydro-3,3,6-trimethyl-1-naphtol, dihydroacetinidolide, ${\beta}-ionone$, 2-(1,1,5-trimethyl-3-hydroxy-5-cyclohexen-6-yl)-1-tolylethene, 2,6-dimethyl-8-(1,1,5-trimethyl-3-hydroxy-5-cyclohexen-6-yl)-1,3,5-octatriene-7-yne. Proposed mechanism of formation of some compounds as thermal degradation products of ascidian tunic carotenoids are provided.

LCD is supplied light by BLU(Back Light Unit) and the light represents color by each color filter. Also LCD adjusts the amount of light by controlling liquid crystal between the glass of upper plate and one of lower. However, it is impossible to completely exclude light due to the structural and physical characteristic of liquid crystal. Therefore, on transfering light through optical sheet and liquid crystal, many problems are generated. They are related with energy efficiency and get effective for the contrast of LCD to have lower contrast ratio than other display devices. To solve the problems, many techniques have been studied and developed but don't exist keys to solution for them. Among methods, local dimming is one example to be applied to LCD. In this paper we propose image processing algorithm for local dimming of BLU of LED used as light source. The proposed algorithm extracts maximum luminance signal and lights using each extracted signal on segmented region of BLU. Also the proposed algorithm generates image signal in corresponding to luminance of the segmented region and supplies them with LCD panel to represent image with improving luminance ratio.

The development of Internet technology has brought the era of one-man media. An individual produces content on user own and uploads it to related online services, and many users watch the content of online services using devices that allow them to use the Internet. Currently, most users find and watch content they want through search functions provided by existing online services. These features are provided based on information entered by the user who uploaded the content. In an environment where content needs to be retrieved based on these limited word data, user unwanted information is presented to users in the search results. To solve this problem, in this paper, the system actively analyzes the video in the online service, and presents a way to extract and reflect the characteristics held by the video. The research was conducted to extract morphemes based on the story content based on the voice data of a video and analyze them with big data technology.

본 논문에서는 워터마크가 삽입된 데이터의 저작권 보호를 위하여 데이터의 복제 시 신속한 위치추적을 통한 불법 복제 방지 시스템을 제안하고 시뮬레이션 하였다. 제안된 방법은 복사기, 프린터, 스캐너 등에 부착된 워터마크 검출 장치로부터 워터마크 검출 시 원 워터마크 이미지와 추출된 워터마크이미지가 일정 비 이상의 상관관계가 있을 경우 불법 복제 상황으로 간주하고, 디지털 데이터로 변환된 워터마크 이미지와 주소 정보가 전력선을 통하여 전송된다. 수신단에서는 수신된 데이터의 발신자 정보를 통해 위치정보를 알아내어 불법 복제 작업현장의 위치를 추적한다. 전력선을 통신선로로 이용 시 전송신호는 전력선 채널 환경에서 임펄스 잡음에 많은 영향을 받기 때문에 본 논문에서는 제안한 시스템의 검증을 위해 AWGN과 임펄스 잡음을 고려하고 잡음 특성이 우수하고 신뢰성이 비교적 강한 DS-CDMA/BPSK 시스템을 통해 제안된 시스템을 시뮬레이션 하였다. 또한, 열악한 채널 환경으로부터 수신성능을 개선하기 위해 컨벌루션 부호화기법을 적용하여 성능 개선 전 후의 복원 이미지의 성능을 비교 분석 하였다.

This study presents an analysis of the human body channel as an electric signal path using body impulse response (BIR). The human body communications (HBC) has recently emerged as an effective signal transmission method to create wireless body area networks (WBAN). We provide body channel characteristics based on measured BIR in a proper experimental environment for the HBC using capacitive coupling with a customized channel sounding device, which can be applied as a guideline for the HBC system design. The frequency response of the BIR, extracted by a customized signal processing for the measure signals, shows the channel path loss (CPS) between 0 MHz and 100 MHz with an average CPS of approximately 46.8 dB. In addition, the relative noise power distributions can provide estimations on the signal to noise ratio at the HBC receiver in terms of capacitor and resistor values in the measured frequency band and the frequency band lower than 3 MHz considering the baseband signal detection.

This paper proposes an integration of the ED-H scheduling algorithm, known for optimal real-time scheduling, with the LoRaEnergySim simulator. This integration facilitates the simulation of interactions between real-time scheduling algorithms for tasks with time constraints in Class-A LoRaWAN Class-A devices using a super-capacitor-based energy harvesting system. The time and energy characteristics of LoRaWAN status and state transitions are extracted in a log format, and the task model is structured to suit the time-slot-based ED-H scheduling algorithm. The algorithm is extended to perform tasks while satisfying time constraints based on CPU executions. To evaluate the proposed approach, the ED-H scheduling algorithm is executed on a set of tasks with varying time and energy characteristics and CPU occupancy rates ranging from 10% to 90%, under the same conditions as the LoRaEnergySim simulation results for packet transmission and reception. The experimental results confirmed the applicability of co-simulation by demonstrating that tasks are prioritized based on urgency without depleting the supercapacitor's energy to satisfy time constraints, depending on the scheduling algorithm.

There are several basic classes of recycling methods for FRP boats. The main one is 'Mechanical recycling' which involves shredding and grinding of the scrap FRP in a new product. That is one of the simpler and more technically proven methods. It recently has been reported that FRP can be recycled by separating into layers instead of crushing into powder. Many researchers should be more interested in these mechanical recycling for the eligibility. Nevertheless, because resins is very useful renewable energy, most of waste FRP regenerating methods depend on incineration (reclamation) or thermal recycling (pyrolysis). FRP is made up of laminated glass- fiber (roving cloth layer) which is also very unlikely to break into each layer. If there is an extracting method which is efficient and environment friendly removing glass fiber from waste FRP, it should also solve the another urgent problem. Laminated glass-fiber which is very limited renewable, is a serious barrier to wast FRP boat regenerating. This study is to propose a new extracting method which is efficient and environment friendly waste FRP regenerating system. And it should be applied to renewable energy applications with the waste resins of FRP. Also recycling glass fiber obtained by the separation of the roving layer from waste FRP will be consider to be useful for concrete products or structures.

In this study, we applied terahertz imaging technology to three Korean modern oil paintings ('Boy,' 'Girl,' and 'Hyehwadong Landscape'); investigated the types of inner layer information in the pictures that can be extracted with terahertz imaging technology; and analyzed the conditions for extracting them. The biggest problem in the terahertz imaging analysis we encountered was the image distortion caused by the change of the distance between the target surface and the terahertz detector, depending on the surface curvature of the target paintings. We then developed a 'working distance maintaining device' to solve this problem. As a result, the terahertz imaging technique was used to identify the base material characteristics and any patterns of damage inside, and presented the optimal conditions for identifying each characteristic. In addition, it was useful to employ the terahertz frequency-division image to check the characteristics of the background materials. To confirm coloring techniques such as brush strokes, it is effective to compare the maximum reflection peak image with the cross-section image; and to detect damage information inside the paintings that cannot be observed on the surface, to compare the cross-section image with the frequency-division image. On the other hand, according to the terahertz imaging analysis of the oil paintings, the internal structural damage marks of 'Boy' and 'Girl' were confirmed, and the artist's painting style was confirmed in 'Hyehwadong Landscape.' The above results are expected to be useful for the analysis and diagnosis of Korean modern oil paintings for their preservation.

Biometric recognition is a technology that determines whether a person is identified by extracting information on a person's biometric and behavioral characteristics with a specific device. Cyber threats such as forgery, duplication, and hacking of biometric characteristics are increasing in the field of biometrics. In response, the security system is strengthened and complex, and it is becoming difficult for individuals to use. To this end, multiple biometric models are being studied. Existing studies have suggested feature fusion methods, but comparisons between feature fusion methods are insufficient. Therefore, in this paper, we compared and evaluated the fusion method of multiple biometric models using fingerprint, face, and iris images. VGG-16, ResNet-50, EfficientNet-B1, EfficientNet-B4, EfficientNet-B7, and Inception-v3 were used for feature extraction, and the fusion methods of 'Sensor-Level', 'Feature-Level', 'Score-Level', and 'Rank-Level' were compared and evaluated for feature fusion. As a result of the comparative evaluation, the EfficientNet-B7 model showed 98.51% accuracy and high stability in the 'Feature-Level' fusion method. However, because the EfficietnNet-B7 model is large in size, model lightweight studies are needed for biocharacteristic fusion.
