  • Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) plays a vital role in economic growth of the countries. The present study analyses the impact of the FDI on economic growth of South Asian Association of Regional Cooperation countries by using the pooled data for the period 1990-2014. Neo-classical production function has been used for analysis and getting stock-to-flow estimation, Taylor series approximation has applied. Fixed Effects Model has been used to investigate the impact of FDI, domestic capital, labour and government expenditures on economic growth. It is the evident from the results that both domestic investment and FDI have been a positive effect on economic growth. The study finds that the contribution of domestic private investment is more trustworthy than the contribution of FDI. Consequently, FDI loses its attraction as an engine of growth if the adverse balance of payment consequence of the resulting profit repatriating is also taken into account. The labour has positive and significant association with GDP. The effect of government expenditure is negligible on economic growth. The findings suggest that growth strategy cannot yield the long term benefits if it neglects investments on human capital.

  • The use of practical management factors to maximize pig health improvement cannot guarantee freedom from diseases. Moreover, because of health safety concerns, the use of antibiotics has been restricted in livestock, including pigs. Therefore, the swine industry has been looking for various alternatives to antibiotics to improve pig's health and performance. Clay is a dietary factor generally accepted for improving pig health. It is a naturally occurring material and is primarily composed of fine-grained minerals. It has a specific structure with polar attraction. Because of this structure, clay has the ability to lose or gain water reversibly. In addition, clay has beneficial physiological activities. First, clay has anti-diarrheic and antibacterial effects by penetrating the cell wall of bacteria or inhibiting their metabolism. Second, it can protect the intestinal tract by absorbing toxins, bacteria, or even viruses. When added to the diet, clay has also been known to bind some mycotoxins, which are toxic secondary metabolites produced by fungi, namely in cereal grains. Those beneficial effects of clay can improve pigs' health and performance by reducing pathogenic bacteria, especially pathogenic Escherichia coli, in the intestinal tract. Therefore, it is suggested that clay has a remarkable potential as an antibiotics alternative.

  • Tax is the main revenue of Government, so fighting tax evasion and sustainable growth have been the primary macroeconomic goals being pursued by every developing country, Vietnam included. The existence and development of the shadow economic sector are synonymous with the national budget losing out. In Vietnam, foreign direct investment projects do not promote economic growth and is also a sector that gives way to tax evasion.The purpose of this study is to investigate the impact of foreign direct investment, the quality of the informal institution on the size of the shadow economy in Vietnam, during the period 1991-2015. By applying the Autoregressive Distributed Lag approach and Toda and Yamamoto test, we found evidence to conclude that the quality of the informal institution harms the size of the shadow economy. The results of the causality test show that there is a unidirectional causality running from the shadow economy and the quality of the informal institution to foreign direct investment attraction in Vietnam. Political solutions need to be implemented carefully to counter the harmful effects of the shadow economy. Policymakers should adopt several economic policies to improve the 'human capital' and drive the shadow economy into the formal economy.

  • The main purpose of this study is to obtain spatial image information toward forest thinning process in Larix forest stands. Thirteen different alternatives were simulated to visualize on the basis of actual thinning work photos. The options were illustrated as photos produced by photoshop program. Each alternatives were evaluated by forest visitor group with total 244 respondents after reliability test. Spatial images of 13 thinning photos were measured by 12 semantic differential scale as broad -narrow, ordered-tangled, friendly-unfriendly, monotonous-divers, dry-refreshing, relieved -stifling, healthy-sickly, uniform-scattered, dead-alive, opened-closed, bent-straight, and beautiful-ugly. In comparison with thinning stands and natural stands, thinning works were visual improvement effects of spatial images. Seemingly, this trend is due to definite form beauty, straight and clear length form of coniferous forest, As can be expected, slash and downwood were negatively related to improvement effects of spatial images. The 60% ratio of stem/ tree height and 450-950 trees/ha was positive in attraction of spatial images. Results indicate how to conduct forest thinning system for spatial images on Larix forest stands.

  • 컴퓨터가 우리의 일상적 환경으로 스며드는 유비쿼터스 컴퓨팅 환경에서는 사용자 인터페이스로서 인터페이스 에이전트의 중요성이 높아지고 있다. 특히 이러한 인터페이스 에이전트는 사용자와 사회적인 관계를 형성할 수 있어야 한다. 본 연구에서는 사용자-에이전트 관계를 형성하기 위한 수단으로 인간관계를 형성, 유지하는 데 중요한 요소인 자기노출을 도입할 것을 제안하고, 에이전트의 자기노출 정도에 대한 사용자의 사회적 반응을 측정하였다. 실험은 2(에이전트의 자기노출 깊이: 높음/낮음)${\times}\;2$(에이전트의 자기노출 양: 많음/적음)의 피험자간 요인설계를 실시하였다. 실험 결과, 1) 에이전트로부터 깊은 수준의 자기노출을 받은 피험자들은 자신에 대해 보다 개인적인 정보를 노출하였으며, 많은 양의 자기노출을 받은 피험자들은 자신에 대해 보다 많이 이야기하였다. 2) 에이전트의 자기노출 깊이가 낮은 경우보다 깊은 경우에 에이전트에 대한 호감, 신뢰, 친밀성에 대한 기대는 감소하였다. 본 연구의 결과는 에이전트의 자기노출 깊이가 사용자의 정보획득과 사용자-에이전트의 사회적 관계형성에 다르게 영향을 미친다는 것을 보여주었다. 즉 사용자의 정보획득을 위해서는 에이전트의 깊은 노출이, 사용자-에이전트의 긍정적인 사회적 관계 형성을 위해서는 에이전트의 적절한 자기노출이 더 유용하였다.

  • This article aims to evaluate the visual effects and images according to the changes in the width of pleats of accordion pleats skirt. I altered the width of the pleats to seven categories in changes of 0.5cm, 0.7cm, l.0cm, 1.3cm, 2.0cm, 2.5cm and 3.0cm. For the visual evaluation, seven stimuli had been placed in mannequins, and had been estimated by experts in fashion design. For the visual evaluation according to changes in the width of pleats of according pleats skirt. I used 11 pairs of items to find their visual effects, and 17 pairs of adjectives to measure the visual images. Those stimuli and adjectives had been randomly given to evaluators and had been evaluated by the seven-point Likert type scale. The data have been analyzed by frequency, factor analysis, ANOVA, Scheffes test and correlation analysis. According to factor analysis of the visual effects of the accordion pleats skirt, the result was classified into three factors: the verticality of the lower body, flexuosity of the lower body, and shape of the abdomen. According to factor analysis of the visual image of the accordion pleats skirt, the result was classified into the following three factors: activity, attraction and neatness. In visual effects, the verticality of the lower body had been assessed as the most important factor of all. The visual effect was positive when the width of pleats had been narrowed. In visual image, activity had been assessed as the most important factor. In the case of accordion pleats skirt, as the width of pleats became wider, it had a stronger image in being active and casual.

  • 본 연구는 애니메이션 영화에서 빈번히 사용되고 있는 더빙 번역전략이 흥행에 미치는 영향을 스코포스 이론의 틀에서 실증적으로 연구 분석하였다. 한국영화진흥위원회의 2차 자료를 이용한 연구결과 더빙은 자막에 비해 매출액에 유의한 정(+)의 영향을 미쳤으며 이 영향은 성수기일 때, 연령등급이 낮을 때, 미국작품이 아닌 때 유의하게 더 높은 것으로 나타났다. 또한 연예인이 더빙에 참여했을 때 자막을 사용하거나 일반성우만이 참여한 경우보다 매출액이 유의하게 더 높은 것으로 나타났다. 이 결과는 스코포스의 이론에 기반한 번역전략인 더빙이 애니메이션의 관객을 고려할 때 자막보다 더 높은 품질의 번역이며 목표관객에 의해 더 선호되며 높은 매출로 이어진다는 것을 보여준다. 본 연구결과는 더빙의 긍정적인 영향을 사례분석에만 의존했던 기존의 연구와는 달리 실제 데이터를 이용해 실증적으로 검증하였다는 점에서 시사점이 있으며 향후 외국 애니메이션의 번역전략에 있어서도 목표관객의 특성 파악이 중요함을 시사한다.

  • Multi-view video has recently gained much attraction from academic and commercial fields because it can deliver the immersive viewing of natural scenes. This paper presents multi-view video processing being composed of intermediate view reconstruction (IVR), graphics composition, and multi-view video viewer. First we generate virtual views between multi-view cameras using depth and texture images of the input videos. Then we mix graphic objects to the generated view images. The multi-view video viewer is developed to examine the reconstructed images and composite images. As well, it can provide users with some special effects of multi-view video. We present experimental results that validate our proposed method and show that graphic objects could become the inalienable part of the multi-view video.
