In order to make the vertical-axis cross flow wind turbine commercially feasible, a guide vane is adopted and the effect of the guide vane shape is examined in order to improve the wind turbine performance. CFD analysis on the performance and internal flow of the turbine is carried out for the wind turbine model. The result shows that when the guide nozzle is installed, almost over two times of power coefficient are achieved in comparison with the case of no guide nozzle installation. The guide nozzle acts as a role of suppressing the flow resistance at the blade passage, which is found when the guide nozzle is installed. Moreover, in this study, two kinds of the guide vane with a straight type and a curved type are adopted and compared. The curved guide vane nozzle produces higher power coefficient in comparison with that of straight guide vane nozzle.

This study compared cross-national Twitter use between Korea and Japan. The main exploratory variables were a) cultural traits and b) disclosure of geographic information. Twitter use was measured by the degree of reciprocity and the numbers of Tweets, followings, and followers. Data were collected using API-based software and analyzed with independent samples t-tests. Content analysis was conducted to validate the findings. The results indicate that Korean and Japanese users employ their own communication strategies reflecting their cultural orientation.

In this study, cross-cultural comparison of sound sensation for Korean traditional silk fabrics between Korea and America was performed and prediction models for sound sensation by objective measurements including sound parameters such as level pressure of total sound (LPT), Zwicker's psychoacoustic characteristics, and mechanical properties by Kawabata Evaluation System were established for each nation to explore the objective parameters explaining sound sensation of the Korean traditional silk. As results, Koreans felt the silk fabric sounds soft and smooth while Americans were revealed as perceiving them hard and rough. Both Koreans and Americans were pleasant with sounds of Gongdan and Newttong and especially Newttong was preferred more by Americans in terms of sound sensation. In prediction models, some of subjective sensation were found as being related mainly with mechanical properties of traditional silk fabrics such as surface and compressional characteristics.

This paper presents the mean streamline analysis using the empirical loss correlations for performance prediction of cross-flow fans. Comparison of overall performance predictions with test data of a cross-flow fan system with a simplified vortex wall scroll casing and with the published experimental characteristics for a cross-flow fan has been carried out to demonstrate the accuracy of the proposed method. Predicted performance curves by the present mean streamline analysis agree well with experimental data for two different cross-flow fans over the normal operating conditions. The prediction method presented herein can be used efficiently as a tool for the preliminary design and performance analysis of general-purpose cross-flow fans.

This paper discusses general methods of modelling magnetic saturation in steady-state, two-axis (d & q) frame models of dual stator induction generators (DSIG). In particular, the important role of the magnetic coupling between the d-q axes (cross-magnetizing phenomenon) is demonstrated, with and without cross-saturation. For that purpose, two distinct models of DSIGs, with and without cross-saturation, are specified. These two models are verified by an application that is sensitive to the presence of cross-saturation, to prove the validity of these final methods and the equivalence between all developed models. Advantages of some of the models over the existing ones and their applicability are discussed. In addition, an alternative is given to evaluate all saturation factors (static and dynamic) by just calculating the static magnetizing inductance which is simply the magnitude of the ratio of the magnetizing flux to the current. The comparison between the simulation results of the proposed model with experimental results gives a good correspondence, especially at startup.

In general, background subtraction based methods are used to detect the moving objects in visual tracking applications. In this paper we employed background subtraction based scheme to detect the temporarily stationary objects. We proposed two schemes for stationary object detection and we compare those in terms of detection performance and computational complexity. In the first approach we used single background and in the second approach we used dual backgrounds, generated with different learning rates, in order to detect temporarily stopped object. Finally, we used normalized cross correlation (NCC) based image comparison to monitor and track the detected stationary object in a video scene. The proposed method is robust with partial occlusion, short time fully occlusion and illumination changes, as well as it can operate in real time.

This paper proposes a simple sound source localization (SSL) method based on signal energies comparison and partial cross correlation for TDOA computation. Many sound source localization methods include multiple TDOA computations in order to eliminate front-back confusion. Multiple TDOA computations however increase the methods' computation times which need to be as minimal as possible for real-time applications. Our aim in this paper is to achieve the same results of localization using fewer computations. Using three microphones, we first compare signal energies to predict which quadrant the sound source is in, and then we use partial cross correlation to estimate the TDOA value before computing the azimuth value. Also, we apply a threshold value to reinforce our prediction method. Our experimental results show that the proposed method has less computation time; spending approximately 30% less time than previous three microphone methods.

데이터 불균형은 분류 문제에서 흔히 마주치는 문제로, 데이터셋 내의 클래스간 샘플 수의 현저한 차이에서 기인한다. 이러한 데이터 불균형은 일반적으로 분류 모델에서 과적합, 과소적합, 성능 지표의 오해 등의 문제를 야기한다. 이를 해결하기 위한 방법으로는 Resampling, Augmentation, 규제 기법, 손실 함수 조정 등이 있다. 본 논문에서는 손실 함수 조정에 대해 다루며 특히, 불균형 문제를 가진 Multi-Class 블랙박스 동영상 데이터에서 여러 구성의 손실 함수(Cross Entropy, Balanced Cross Entropy, 두 가지 Focal Loss 설정: 𝛼 = 1 및 𝛼 = Balanced, Asymmetric Loss)의 성능을 I3D, R3D_18 모델을 활용하여 비교하였다.

Asian food and the Asian restaurant market have grown rapidly in the international market. It has become one of the major trends in the restaurant industry in the world. However, there has been little attempt to develop a scale for measuring customer's motivation to experience Asian restaurants, and cross-cultural approaches are very rare. From this point of view, this study examined an instrument to measure motivation to visit Asian restaurants developed by Jang and Kim (2015), which was originally developed based on UK customers, by applying the population from another cultural background, Thailand. A total of 308 valid responses were obtained in Thailand. CFA was performed with a Thai sample to test internal and external consistency of the scale with another population, and a comparison was made between UK and Thai customers.

본 연구는 KOMPSAT-3 위성의 방사학적 품질 평가를 위해 다중분광 및 초분광 센서을 사용하여 복사학적 교차 검증을 수행하였다. PICS site 에서 촬영된 EO-1 Hyperion과 Landsat-8 OLI 센서의 영상을 이용하였고, 서로 다른 특성을 지닌 토지 피복으로 구성된 2개 지역을 선정하여 항공 초분광 센서와 대기상층 반사도 기반 교차 검증을 수행하였다. EO-1 Hyperion, CASI-1500과의 대기상층 반사도를 비교한 결과, 전체적으로 약 4 % 이내의 차이를 보였다. 이는 일반적으로 타 위성과의 비교를 통한 반사도 차이가 5 % 내에 들어올 경우 방사학적 품질기준에 적합하다고 판단된다. Landsat-8 센서와의 대기상층 반사도를 비교한 결과 Blue, Green, Red밴드는 약 3% 내외의 반사도 차이를 보였으나, NIR band에서 Landsat-8에 비해 상대적으로 낮게 나타났다. 이는 NIR 밴드에서 두 센서간 밴드대역폭의차이가 존재하고, KOMPSAT-3 센서의 경우 수증기에 의한 흡수가 강하게 나타나는 940nm 부근도 밴드대역폭이 포함되고 있기 때문에 상대적으로 낮은 반사도를 보이는 것으로 판단되며, 이를 극복하기 위해 Spectral Bandwidth Adjustment Factor (SBAF)와 같은 rescale method를 적용한 보다 세밀한 분석이 시도될 필요가 있다.
