Nowadays, lots of requirements are changed quickly and variously. So, we need the ability to support the change of business process which is the asset of a company. To support this ability, the core asset that supports analyzing and describing about changes of business process should be exist from generating phase of a business process model. And a business process model that is satisfied the changed requirements should be automatically generated using core assets. In this paper, we present a business process family model (BPFM) which represents the commonalities and the variabilities of a set of business processes, we propose the automated tool using variabilities of BPFM and decision-making information for generation of business process model that is satisfied the changed requirements.

Rapid advances in technology and changes in human and cultural activities bring about changes to the earth surface in terms of spatial extension as well as time frame of the changes. Such advances introduce shorter updating frequency of maps and geospatial database. To satisfy these requirements, recent research efforts in the geoinformatics field have been focused on the automation and speeding up of the mapping processes which resulted in products such as the digital photogrammetric workstation, GPSIINS, applications of satellite imagery, automatic feature extraction and the LiDAR system. The possibility of automatically extracting buildings and generating contours from airborne LiDAR data has received much attention because LiDAR data produce promising results. However, compared with the manually derived building footprints using traditional photogrammetric process, more investigation and analysis need to be carried out in terms of accuracy and efficiency. On the other hand, generation of the contours with LiDAR data is more efficient and economical in terms of the quality and accuracy. In this study, the effects of various conditions of the pre-processing phase and the subsequent building extraction and contour generation phases for digital mapping have on the accuracy were investigated.

In Recent times, Netizens have frequently use virtual character 'Avatar' schemes in order to present their own identity, there is a strong need for avatars to resemble the user. This paper proposes an extraction technique for facial region and features that are used in generating the avatar automatically. For extraction of facial feature component, the method uses ACM and edge information. Also, in the extraction process of facial region, the proposed method reduces the effect of lights and poor image quality on low resolution pictures. this is achieved by using the variation of facial area size which is employed for external energy of ACM. Our experiments show that the success rate of extracting facial regions is $92{\%}$ and accuracy rate of extracting facial feature components is $83.4{\%}$, our results provide good evidence that the suggested method can extract the facial regions and features accurately, moreover this technique can be used in the process of handling features according to the pattern parts of automatic avatar generation system in the near future.

In the paper, a wireless charger with the function of auto-shutdown for fully implantale middle ear hearing devices (F-IMEHD) has been designed. The wireless charger can communicate with an implant module to be turned off automatically shutdown after an internal rechargeable battery has been fully-charged by electromagnetic coupling using two coils. For the communication with an implant module, the wireless charger uses the load shift keying (LSK) method. But, the variation of the mutual inductance due to the different distance between two coils can cause the communication error in receiving the fully-charged signal from an implant module. To solve the problem, the implemented wireless charger has a variable reference generator for LSK communication. The wireless charger generates proper level of the reference voltage for a comparator using an ADC (analog-to-digital converter) and a DAC (digital-to-analog converter). Through the result of experiment, it has been confirmed that the presented wireless charger can detect signals from implantable module. And wireless charger can stop generating electromagnetic flux after an implanted battery has been fully charged in spite of variable coil distance according to different skin thickness.

Due to the insufficiency of training data in large vocabulary continuous speech recognition, similar context dependent phones can be clustered by decision trees to share the data. When the decision trees are built and used to predict unseen triphones, a phonetic question set is required. The phonetic question set, which contains categories of the phones with similar co-articulation effects, is usually generated by phonetic or linguistic experts. This knowledge-based approach for generating phonetic question set, however, may reduce the homogeneity of the clusters. Moreover, the experts must adjust the question sets whenever the language or the PLU (phone-like unit) of a recognition system is changed. Therefore, we propose a data-driven method to automatically generate phonetic question set. Since the proposed method generates the phone categories using speech data distribution, it is not dependent on the language or the PLU, and may enhance the homogeneity of the clusters. In large vocabulary speech recognition experiments, the proposed algorithm has been found to reduce the error rate by 14.3%.

Packet filtering is to filter out potentially malicious network packets. In order to test a packet filtering function we should verify whether security policies are performed correctly as intended. However there are few existing tools to test the function. Besides, they need user participation when generating test cases or deciding test results. Many security administrators have a burden to test systematically new security policies when they establish new policies or modify the existing ones. To mitigate the burdens we suggest a new test method with minimal user articipation. Our tool automates generation steps of the test cases and the test oracles, respectively. By using the test oracles generated automatically, deciding test results is possible without user intervention. Our method realizes an automatic testing in three phases; test preparation phase, test execution, and test evaluation. As a result it may enhance confidence of test activities more highly. This paper describes the design and implementation of our test method and tool.

In this paper, we observe various syntactic information for Korean parsing and propose a method to learn constraints and improve the efficiency of a parsing model by using the constraints. The proposed method has the following three characteristics. First, it improves the parsing efficiency since we use constraints that can prevent the parser from generating unsuitable candidates. Second, it is robust on a given Korean sentence because the attributes for the constraints are selected based on the syntactic and lexical idiosyncrasy of Korean. Third, it is easy to acquire constraints automatically from a treebank by using a decision tree learning algorithm. The experimental results show that the parser using acquired constraints can reduce the number of overgenerated candidates up to 1/2~1/3 of candidates and it runs 2~3 times faster than the one without any constraints.

The light source is an important visual component that empirically affects the color and illumination of graphic objects, and it is necessary to precisely store and appropriately employ the information of all light sources in the real world in order to obtain photo-realistic composition results. The information of real light sources can be accurately stored in HDR environment maps; however, it is impossible to create new environment maps corresponding to dynamic virtual light sources from a single HDR environment map captured under a fixed lighting situation. In this paper, we present a technique to dynamically generate well-matched information for arbitrarily selected virtual light sources using HDR environment maps created under predefined lighting position and orientation. Using the information obtained from light intensity and distribution analysis, our technique automatically generates HDR environment maps for virtual light sources via image interpolation. By applying the interpolated environment maps to an image-based lighting technique, we show that virtual light can create photo-realistically rendered images for graphic models.

In this paper, we propose a stereo image composition method based on Poisson image editing. If we synthesize images without considering their depth values, it may lead to unwanted consequences. When we segment an image into its background and foreground regions using Grabcut, we take into account their geometric positions to mix color tones; thus, the image is composited more naturally. After synthesizing images, we apply a blurring operation around object boundaries; then, the foreground object and background are composited more seamlessly. In addition, we can adjust the distance of the object by setting arbitrary depth values and generating right color and depth images automatically. Experimental results show that the proposed stereo image composition method provides naturally synthesized stereo images. Improved portions were subjectively confirmed as well.

Clustering technology is used to deal efficiently with many searched documents in information retrieval system. But the accuracy of the clustering is satisfied to the requirement of only some domains. This paper proposes two methods to increase accuracy of the clustering. We define a common-word, that is frequently used but has low weight during clustering. We propose the method that automatically gathers the common-word and calculates its weight from the searched documents. From the experiments, the clustering error rates using the common-word is reduced to 34% compared with clustering using a stop-word. After generating first clusters using average link clustering from the searched documents, we propose the algorithm that reevaluates the similarity between document and clusters and reclassifies the document into more similar clusters. From the experiments using Naver JiSikIn category, the accuracy of reclassified clusters is increased to 1.81% compared with first clusters without reclassification.
