Pre-existing pattern recognition techniques, in the case of character recognition, have limited on the application field. But CAI character learning system and writer's recognition system are very important parts. The application field of pre-existing system can be expanded in the content that the learning of characters and the recognition of writers in the proposed paper. In order to achieve these goals, the development contents are the following: Firstly, pre-processing method by understanding the image structure is proposed, secondly, recognition of characters are accomplished b the histogram distribution characteristics. Finally, similarity measure functions are defined from standard character pattern for matching of the input character pattern. Also the effectiveness of this system is demonstrated by experimenting the standard primitive image.

Star characters play a key role in the background of contents that secure global competitiveness. In this study, we study the growth factors and transitional forms of Nintendo Super Mario Bros. and suggest the direction of nurturing Korean star characters. As a result of the analysis of Super Mario Bros., it was possible to derive the growth factors of Originality, repeatability, Continuity, Pertain, and Star Fame and the transition result of step development method. Robot Taekwon V was presented as a reference model while Korean game characters with global competitiveness were excavated. Robot Taekwon V, which combines the features of friendly, unique, symbolism, and narrative, could be used to present a development model of the type of jump development. In the jump development model, character development and Upbringing, diversification of genre, pioneering of new markets combined with new technology, and fostering of characters through linkage with other industries were presented.

Characters have been frequently used as a symbol or an icon in above the line advertising for generations. It has become an essential factor for companies to research about the experience that consumers have by engaging with the products that are partnered with famous or brand characters before introducing a product to the market. The character trademark has become more popular and interesting than the product itself. Therefore, products have become dependent on its character trademark. The ultimate purpose of this research is to find effective ways of increasing the value of the brand by observing various characters and how people interact with these characters, depending on the consumer's age, gender, and so forth. One would be able to collect data or information from documents as a method of this research and grasp different contents, components, concepts, and contexts of character collaboration and affiliate characters from well-known messengers, such as Kakaotalk and Line. In addition, by re-analyzing Peter Morville's Honeycomb tool, its method would set the scale of the user experience and one would be able to conduct interviews with those who are using collaboration products. This study reveals extensive guidelines for character partnership or collaboration that have been successful and creating effective marketing skills.

This study explored the development and applicability of a classics book reading program in the nursing curriculum as a character education program in order to enhance nursing students' holistic growth and development. An increasing number of universities in Seoul have introduced a classics book reading program as part of the curriculum and some have even designated it as an essential subject. Various such programs have been developed in addition to the regular education curriculum. The following aspects are important to consider in a classics book reading program for nursing students: trust, respect, responsibility, fairness, caring, citizenship, endurance, healthy self-concept, and self-sustained growth performance. Classics book selections need to take into account the level of the students, and the efforts should be made to ensure the accuracy of the translation and the level of students' understanding. It is difficult to form character through short-term education. Despite difficulties, character formation requires continued interest and systemic education that will lead nursing students to show inbuilt positive characteristics. Inclusion of character education in the nursing curriculum should be considered with the agreement of the university, based on political decision-making.

Recently, the importance of the efficient production pipeline design has been increased for 3D animation, which becomes more delicate. In this paper, we propose 3D animation character development pipeline using 3D printing technology. We introduce 3D printing procedure into each step of the classical 3D animation and character development pipeline to incorporate the feed-back from the designer immediately. Specially, during the production step, we can find the design errors and minimize the period of production by using 3D printing of approximate shape of designed character. Using proposed method, eight DreaMegg characters were developed and their quality was very high with respect to 3D virtual graphics and real product. Using our method, high-quality 3D animation character can be developed with the minimized time and cost for development by reflecting the feed-back into production line from designers and researchers immediately.

This article studies on the character design of North Korea's puppet animation around 1985. At that time North Korea's puppet animation are improved glaringly in quantitative side and qualitative side of modeling. There has been constant support nationalistically to puppet animation from the initial period of animation production in North Korea unlike South Korea, and North Korea communicated lively with European socialist countries where tradition of puppet animation is strong. We can discover structural and figurative change of distinct feature in character design in 1985. Structurally, experimental forms and correct movement of joint were possible, because they used ball and socket armature. Expressively, they established own esthetics of character design in puppet animation applying technique of korean traditional painting to character design: laconism, perspicuity, delicacy.

This study aims to analyze comparatively the structure of conflict between parents and children in terms of their character with Pixar's and from the aspects of MBTI's type dynamics. Thus, the paper infers the hierarchy of the characters' personality type and psychological function and also analyzes the structure of conflict and reconciliation based on type dynamics. The study has drawn conclusions with the work analysis as follows: (1) The structure shows that the parents' thinking function restricts the children's intuitive function, and it is metaphorized as 'collision between reality and possibility', (2) As the extroverted psychological function of the character having a complementary role complements the underdeveloped tertiary function of the character with deficiency and contributes to the type development, (3) In , the subject of conflict realizes direct, unidirectional complementation, (4) And in , not because of the subject of conflict but because of the mirror character, indirect, bidirectional complementary methodology differs.
