A number of video indexing and retrieval algorithms have been proposed to manage large video databases efficiently. The video similarity measure is one of most important technical factor for video content management system. In this paper, we propose the luminance characteristics model to measure the video similarity efficiently. Most algorithms for video indexing have been commonly used histograms, edges, or motion features, whereas in this paper, the proposed algorithm is employed an efficient similarity measure using the luminance projection. To index the video sequences effectively and to reduce the computational complexity, we calculate video similarity using the key frames extracted by the cumulative measure, and compare the set of key frames using the modified Hausdorff distance. Experimental results show that the proposed luminance projection model yields the remarkable improved accuracy and performance than the conventional algorithm such as the histogram comparison method, with the low computational complexity.

Contamination of groundwater resources by organic chemicals has become an issue of increasing environmental concern. Surfactant-enhanced aquifer remediation (SEAR) is widely recognized as one of the most promising techniques to remediate organic contaminations in-situ. Solutions of surfactant or surfactant with polymer are used to dramatically expedite the process, which in turn, may reduce the treatment time of a site compared to use of water alone. In the design of surfactant-based technologies for remediation of organic contaminated aquifers, it is very important to have a considerable analysis using extensive numerical simulations prior to full-scale implementation. This study investigated the formation and flow of microemulsions during SEAR of organic-contaminated aquifer using the finite difference model UTCHEM, a three-dimensional, multicomponent, multiphase, compositional model. The remediation process variables considered in this study were the sequence of injection fluids, the injection and extraction rate, the concentrations of polymer in surfactant slug and chase water, and the duration of surfactant injection. For each variable, temporal changes in injection and production wells and spatial distributions of relative saturations in the organic phase were compared. Cleanup time and cumulative organic recovery were also quantified. The study would provide useful information to design strategies for the remediation of nonaqueous phase liquid-contaminated aquifers.

A mixed forest community of Abies holophylla and broad-leaved trees in Odaesan National Park was studied to determine the adequate number of plots of shrub stratum for investigating forest community structure. Thirty 5m*5m plots were set up in the shrub stratum, and species-area curve and performance curve were made out. The minimum number of plots where a given percentage increase in number of plots produce in number of plots produced less than the same percentage increase in number of species was six. The minimum number of plots where a given percentage increase in number of plots produced less than the half of the percentage increase in number of plots was eleven. The minimum number of plots where the dominant species was distinguished from the subdominant species was five. The minimum numver of plots where the first subdominant species was distinguished from other subdominant species was ten. The diffrence of species diversity(H') between five or more plots and total thirty plots was less than 0.05. Similarity index was more than 70% between five or more plots and total thirty plots, and more than 80% between ten or more plots and total thirty plots. The conclusion is that the adequate number of 5m*5m plots for the shrub stratum was about 5 in general case and about 10 in case of requiring more accuracy.

3D reconstruction of a scene structure from un-calibrated image sequences has been long one of the central problems in computer vision. For 3D reconstruction in Euclidean space, projective reconstruction, which is classified into the merging method and the factorization, is needed as a preceding step. By calculating all camera projection matrices and structures at the same time, the factorization method suffers less from dia and error accumulation than the merging. However, the factorization is hard to analyze precisely long sequences because it is based on the assumption that all correspondences must remain in all views from the first frame to the last. This paper presents a new projective reconstruction method for recovery of 3D structure over long sequences. We break a full sequence into sub-sequences based on a quantitative measure considering the number of matching points between frames, the homography error, and the distribution of matching points on the frame. All of the projective reconstructions of sub-sequences are registered into the same coordinate frame for a complete description of the scene. no experimental results showed that the proposed method can recover more precise 3D structure than the merging method.

이 연구는 수자원 환경을 전반적으로 객관화, 계량화하는 새로운 방법이 성공적임을 소개한다. 기존의 계량법이 일강수량, 월 강수량, 년 강수량 등등, 단순한 수학적 합계에 치중한 결과 가중 중요한 강수의 시간 분포를 간과하였다. 이 단점을 해결하여, 1) 구체적으로 매 시간, 매일 남아 있다고 추정되는 물의 양 만을 합산하는 방법을 택했다. 시간적 감소함수를 이용하여, 강수 후 유출과 증발 등으로 사라지는 물의 양을 고려한 것이다. 2) 합산기간을 객관화하였다. 기본 합산 기간을 365일로 하고, 물 부족 또는 물 과잉이 지속될 경우는 지속되는 기간만큼, 합산기간을 늘이는 방법을 택했다. 따라서 다른 지수들이 임의로 3개월 또는 12개월 등등으로 기간을 결정하는 단점을 해결했다. 이렇게 계산되는 4차원 강수지수(4-Dimensional Rain Index, 4RI)는 1) 일별유효강수지수 (AWRI), 2) 일별가뭄지수(EDI), 3) 일별 홍수지수(FI), 4) 시간별 장기 물지수(LWI), 5) 시간별 단기 물지수(SWI) 등 5개가 기본지수이다. AWRI는 매일 남아 있는 물의 양이다. 이로 인해, 전 지구의 수자원과 재해위험의 시공간적 분포의 정량화 분석이 정밀해졌다. 지구상에서 물 집중이 가장 강한 곳은 캄보디아 내의 한 지점이며 시기는 7월 말이고, 가장 약한 곳은 사하라 사막의 한 지역임이 확인되었다. 또 한국에서 발생하는 갈수기와 풍수기가 정의되었고, 이들의 각 지역별 특성과 차이가 정량적으로 드러났다. 시간적 분포 또한 명확하게 드러나, 각종 저수지의 물 관리나 농?임산물의 생산관리에 획기적 전환점이 마련되었다. 각 국가별로, 각 지역별로 이런 분석은 향후도 무수히 시도되어야 할 것이다. EDI는 매일의 AWRI를 그 날짜의 평균치와 비교한 값이다. 장기가뭄 및 단기가뭄의 강도를 모두 가장 정밀하게 표현한다. FI는 일별로 홍수, 산사태, 침수, 토사 (이하 홍수 등이라 칭함)의 위험을, LWI는 장기 누적된 강수량에 의한 돌발적 홍수 등의 위험을, SWI는 단기 누적된 강수량에 의한 돌발적 홍수 등의 위험을 잘 반영한다. 이들은 모두 시간적으로 산발적인 호우에 의한 홍수 등의 위험을 한 개의 지수로 표현해 주는 장점이 있다. 강수 후 홍수가 발생하기 까지는 시간차이가 있기 때문에, 특히 호우 경보에는 SWI가, 홍수 경보에는 LWI가 아주 효과적이다. 결론적으로 5개의 4차원 강수지수는 물환경의 시공간적 분포진단과 예측, 그리고 조기경보에 혁명적 진화를 초래함이 확인되었다. 따라서 추후 모든 강수기후와 연관된 연구는 연강수량 등의 단순 합산보다, 4차원 강수지수를 먼저 사용하는 것이 바람직 할 것임이 제안되었다.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to retrospectively investigate the survival and success rate of implant-supported fixed prosthesis according to the materials in the posterior area. Other purposes were to observe the complications and evaluate the factors affecting failure. Materials and methods: Patients who had been restored implant prosthesis in the posterior area by the same prosthodontist in the department of prosthodontics, dental hospital, Chonbuk National University, in the period from January 2011 to June 2018 were selected for the study. The patient's sex, age, material, location, type of prosthesis and complications were examined using medical records. The KaplanMeier method was used to analyze the survival and success rate. The Log-rank test was conducted to compare the differences between the groups. Cox proportional hazards model was used to assess the association between potential risk factors and success rate. Results: A total of 364 implants were observed in 245 patients, with an average follow-up of 17.1 months. A total of 5 implant prostheses failed and were removed, and the 3 and 5 year cumulative survival rate of all implant prostheses were 97.5 and 91.0, respectively. The 3 and 5 year cumulative success rate of all implant prostheses were 61.1% and 32.9%, respectively. Material, sex, age, location and type of prosthesis did not affect success rate (P>.05). Complications occurred in the order of proximal contact loss (53 cases), retention loss (17 cases), peri-implant mucositis (12 cases), infraocclusion (4 cases) and so on. Conclusion: Considering a high cumulative survival rate of implant-supported fixed prostheses, regardless of the materials, implant restored in posterior area can be considered as a reliable treatment to tooth replacement. However, regular inspections and, if necessary, repairs and adjustments are very important because of the frequent occurrence of complications.

This research wanted to examine what narratives and discourse were being formed in web drama contents young generations were going crazy about. To understand the characteristics of such love epics and to know what narratives were being formed based on narrative structures and comments, this research specifically used the web drama produced up to the season 4 for the first time in Korean web drama history with a large number of accumulated views. It was found that the narratives of the drama composed the romantic relationships of four couples as independent episodes, and realistically highlighted separations and reunions of those couples, and suggested concrete methods to solve agonies and conflicts they would experience in such relationships. And, in user comments, there emerged relational narratives confusing friendship and love between partners of opposite sex, narratives regarding the third person as enemy, and narratives on typical sex roles in such romantic relations. And, the culture seeking subjective love style and sharing and sympathizing with the love histories also appeared.

For teaching-learning activities to be effective, the teaching methods need to reflect the contents of instructional materials and the characteristics of the learners. The purpose of this paper is to investigate the effective ways of teaching computer programming languages. The main components of teaching computer programming languages might be the characteristics of the language itself, the function of design, and general problem-solving capacity. But the analysis of the Quality and environments of learners is much more important. To improve the Quality of teaching computer programming languages, the structured syllabus needs to be provided and a variety of teaching methods such as project-based approach, problem-based approach, cooperative learning, peer tutoring and case study should be applied selectively, depending upon the instructional situations. In addition, procedural and constructive evaluation process needs to be developed to monitor each stage of learning and to give the guidelines of completing the course projects.

Rotor blades are important devices that affect the power performance, efficiency of energy conversion, and loading and dynamic stability of wind turbines. Therefore, considering the characteristics of a wind turbine system is important for achieving optimal blade design. When a design is complete, a design evaluation should be performed to verify the structural integrity of the proposed blade in accordance with international standards or guidelines. This paper presents a detailed exposition of the evaluation items and acceptance criteria required for the design certification of wind turbine blades. It also presents design evaluation results for a 2-MW blade (KR40.1b). Analyses of ultimate strength, buckling stability, and tip displacement were performed using FEM, and Miner's rule was applied to evaluate the fatigue life of the blade. The structural integrity of the KR40.1b blade was found to satisfy the design standards.
