Various decipherment technologies, including manual rubbing, have been continuously applied to the Goguryeo Stele in Chungju. However, an official document for advanced decipherment is required as there remain characters to be deciphered. This study focuses on interdisciplinary digital decipherment using digital visualization results based on reflectance transformation imaging and three-dimensional scanning. On that basis, the joint decipherment document in 2019 is classified into eight types according to character changes from 1979 to 2000, and decipherment achievements are discussed. Important outcomes of the joint decipherment document include a new interpretation of four existing characters and the identification of 28 new characters. Additionally, 68 characters on the front face and 20 on the left face, which are listed differently in previous decipherment documents, are determined to be a single character through a consensus process. Compared to the previous decipherment document, the "decision" character is increased by a total of 89 characters (22.6%), and the "different opinion" character is decreased by 126 characters (32.0%). Thus, this digital decipherment greatly contributes to the reexamination of the Goguryeo Stele in Chungju and complements the previous decipherment document through reflectance transformation imaging and three-dimensional scanning. However, continuous research is necessary to enhance decipherment rates, since 123 characters (31.3%) are yet to receive decipherment. In the future, decipherment advancement regarding the Goguryeo Stele in Chungju should be based on convergence research between the humanities and science. Furthermore, it seems that researchers must make constant efforts to apply new imaging analysis technology and to develop customized technology for decipherment.

In this paper a new approach of digitalized ‘Takbon’ is introduced. By image signal processing, the letters which were written on stones can be deciphered. Epigraphic letter is detected by digital image device, digital camera. The two dimensional digital image is preprocessed because of sensor noise and detective turbulence. Color image is transformed into grey level. The letter image is analyzed in time/frequency domain. By the resultant analysis data decisive functions are calculated. Signal Processing techniques, such as scaling, clipping, digital negative, high/low filter, morphology and so on, provide algorithms that can extract letter from stones.

The importance of protection for information is increasing by the rapid development of information communication and network. Asymmetric crypto-system is the mainstream in encryption system rather than symmetric cryptosystem by above reasons. But asymmetric cryptosystem is restricted in applying to application fields by the reason it takes more times to process than symmetric cryptosystem. In this paper, the proposed cryptosystem uses an algorithm that combines block cipherment with stream ciphcrment. Proposed cryptosystem has a high stability in aspect of secret rate by means of transition of key sequence according to the information of plaintext while asymmetric /symmetric cryptosystern conducts encipherment/decipherment using a fixed key Consequently, it is very difficult to crack although unauthenticator acquires the key information. So, the proposed encryption system which has a certification function of asymmetric cryptosystcm and a processing time equivalent to symmetric cryptosystcm will be highly useful to authorize data or exchange important information.

금속이나 암석에 음각(陰角)으로 각인된 문자나 그림들은 날씨나 주변 빛 환경에 따라 시각으로 입력되는 정보에 큰 차이를 보인다. 이를 이미지검출장치를 통해 읽어드려 디지털 이미지 신호로 만들고자 할 때는 더욱 그 정도가 심하여 대상체가 위치하는 빛 환경이나 검출기 특성에 각별한 신경을 써야한다. 자연광이나 전구 그리고 기후나 날씨에 의해 조성되는 빛 환경은 조도(照度), 조사각도(照射角度), 그림자 및 대상체 표면 상태 등이 중요한 결정 인자들이다. 빛 환경이 디지털 이미지 질(質)에 끼치는 영향을 최소화하기 위한 실험실 차원의 빛환경조정실을 구축하였다. 외부 유입 광선을 모두 차단하고 지향성이 있는 조명에 의해서만 대상체에 빛이 조사되도록 하고 디지털 카메라로 대상체의 이미지를 담았다. 음각 문자를 새긴 샘플석문(石文)을 제작하고 실험실 안의 정량화된 빛환경 하에서 석문의 이미지를 취득하였다. 전처리 과정을 통해 노이즈를 제거하고 이미지의 질을 향상시켰다. 처리된 이미지를 분석하여 문자영역과 바탕영역의 신호패턴을 추출한 다음 룩업 테이블, 조도 레벨 슬라이징, 중첩의 원리 및 Morphology 등의 기법을 알고리즘화하여 2진 형태의 음각문자를 판독 및 복원하는데 성공하였다.

금석문의 영상데이터를 디지털 형태로 검출하고, 영상신호처리 알고리즘을 사용하여 신호의 특성을 분석하고 그 결과를 제시하였다. 대상체는 비석에 음각된 문자로 하였다. 대전 주변의 백제권에서 몇몇 유형의 음각 문자를 형태별로 분류하여 디지털 이미지화한 다음, 문자가 각인된 정보영역과 바탕영역의 신호패턴을 추출하였다. 먼저 칼라 이미지를 grey tone으로 변환한 후, 전처리 과정을 거쳐 이미지의 노이즈나 불명확성을 제거하고 히스토그램 전 영역에 걸쳐 스케일 확장시켰다. 문자가 각인된 정보영역과 바탕영역을 구분하여 무작위로 소이미지 샘플을 취득하고 각 소이미지의 신호패턴을 분석하였다. 그 결과를 중첩의 원리를 이용하여 합성한 후 영역별 신호분석 패턴을 정형화하였다. 유형별로 다소 차이를 보이나 두 영역의 이미지 분석 결과는 차별성을 보였다. 문자 영역은 grey level 범위가 좁고 한정되며 일관성을 보이는데 비해, 바탕영역은 범위가 넓고 광범위하였다. 두 영역의 교차 레벨 범위는 극히 제한적이었으며 패턴 분리에 큰 영향을 끼치지 못하였음이 밝혀졌다. 이 일련의 과정은 알고리즘화되어, 1-2분 정도의 사전 작업만 하면 프로그램에 의해 문자를 추출할 수 있다. 이러한 사실들은 종래 무리한 탁본 작업에만 전적으로 의존하던 금석학 분야의 디지털화를 가능케 할 수 있다.

The manufacture date of the number 198 wooden tablet excavated at Anapji is estimated to be between year 751 and 774. As medical artifacts around this period of time is scarce, the discovery of an artifact with distinct medical information such as names of medicinal drugs recorded in hand writing holds great value in the history of medicine. This wooden tablet was presumably a prescription for a medicinal formula. That the '灸' character which is a method of processing drugs is found after '甘草' indicates the possibility of this wooden tablet to be a practical form of prescription. On this slip, a certain sign can be found at the upper right corner of the names of drugs. This is thought to be an additional sign added to the original text. It seems to have been originated from the letter '了', based on the composition and finishing touches of the strokes, presumably to confirm the end of a work by adding the letter '了' which means 'to finish'. The base material of 靑黛 and 藍淀 are the same, and the two often took each other's place in a prescription. It is difficult to find an example of a formula where both drugs are included. Therefore, the prescription on the front with 靑黛, and the one on the back with 藍淀 of tablet 198 can be understood as separate formulas.

ROC(Receiver Operating Characteristic)curve is the method that estimate detected insignificant signal from the human's sense of sight, it has been raised excellent results. In this study, we evaluate image quality and equipment character by obtaining a chest image from CR(Computed Radiography) and DDR(Direct Digital radiography) using the human chest phantom, The parameter of exposure for obtaining chest image was 120 kVp/3.2 mAs and the SID(Source to Image Distance) was 180cm. The images were obtained by CR(AGFA MD 4.0 General plate, JAPAN) and DDR(HOLOGIC nDirect Ray, USA). Using some pieces of Aluminum and stone for expressing regions, then attached them on the heart, lung and thoracic vertebrae of the phantom. 29 persons hold radiology degrees were participated in ROC analysis. As a result of the ROC analysis, TPF(true positive fraction) and FPF(false positive fraction) of DDR and CR are 0.552 and 0.474 and 0.629 and 0.405, respectively. By using the results, the ROC curve of CR has higher image quality than DDR. According to the theory, DDR has the higher image quality than CR in chest X-ray image. But, CR has the higher image quality than DDR. quality of DDR inserted the enhance board. The results confirmed that image post-processing is important element decipherment of clinical.

This paper describes ATM cell encipherment method using Rijndael Algorithm adopted as an AES(Advanced Encryption Standard) by NIST in 2001. ISO 9160 describes the requirement of physical layer data processing in encryption/decryption. For the description of ATM cell encipherment method, we implemented ATM data encipherment equipment which satisfies the requirements of ISO 9160, and verified the encipherment/decipherment processing at ATM STM-1 rate(155.52Mbps). The DES algorithm can process data in the block size of 64 bits and its key length is 64 bits, but the Rijndael algorithm can process data in the block size of 128 bits and the key length of 128, 192, or 256 bits selectively. So it is more flexible in high bit rate data processing and stronger in encription strength than DES. For tile real time encryption of high bit rate data stream. Rijndael algorithm was implemented in FPGA in this experiment. The boundary of serial UNI cell was detected by the CRC method, and in the case of user data cell the payload of 48 octets (384 bits) is converted in parallel and transferred to 3 Rijndael encipherment module in the block size of 128 bits individually. After completion of encryption, the header stored in buffer is attached to the enciphered payload and retransmitted in the format of cell. At the receiving end, the boundary of ceil is detected by the CRC method and the payload type is decided. n the payload type is the user data cell, the payload of the cell is transferred to the 3-Rijndael decryption module in the block sire of 128 bits for decryption of data. And in the case of maintenance cell, the payload is extracted without decryption processing.
