Underwater images are very much different from images taken on land, due to the presence of a higher disturbance ratio caused by the presence of water medium between the camera and the target object. These distortions and noises result in unclear details and reduced quality of the output image. An underwater image restoration method is proposed in this paper, which uses blurriness information, background light neutralization information, and red-light intensity to estimate depth. The transmission map is then estimated using the derived depth map, by considering separate attenuation coefficients for direct and backscattered signals. The estimated transmission map and estimated background light are then used to recover the scene radiance. Qualitative and quantitative analysis have been used to compare the performance of the proposed method against other state-of-the-art restoration methods. It has been shown that the proposed method can yield good quality restored underwater images. The proposed method has also been evaluated using different qualitative metrics, and results have shown that method is highly capable of restoring underwater images with different conditions. The results are significant and show the applicability of the proposed method for underwater image restoration work.

배전망은 그 구조가 매우 복잡하고, 수용가와 인접되어 있으므로 송전망에 비하여 사고의 발생도 매우 빈번하다. 또한 배전망에서의 사고는 수용가에게 직접적인 피해를 발생시킬 수 있다. 따라서 수용가의 피해를 줄이고 전력공급의 안정성 확보를 위한 배전망에서의 고장진단과 정전복구는 필수적으로 요구되는 기능이다. 배전망의 정전복구는 시간적인 제약성에 종속되며, 정전복구 과정에서 발생하는 스위칭 수를 최소화하는 것이 가장 중요한 요소이다. 폭, 모든 정전구역을 한번의 스위칭으로 복구하는 것이 가장 이상적이며, 그렇지 못한 경우 여러 번의 스위칭으로 복구하여야 한다. 본 논문에서는 조작되는 스위치의 수를 최소화시키기 위한 배전망의 정전 복구 시스템을 제안하였다. 제안된 시스템에서는 휴리스틱 탐색방법과 메타-알고리즘의 동적분할 기법의 계층구조를 사용하고 있다. 제안된 정전복구 시스템의 성능을 검증하기 위하여 모의 배전망을 대상으로 성능평가를 수행하였다.

Vegetation and riverine structures were compared among urban and several semi-natural rivers by applying direct gradient analysis and ordination method. Urban rivers showed different species composition from the semi-natural ones. Species composition of semi-natural rivers depended on the geographical positions, such as the upstream, midstream, and downstream and on micro-topographies, such as the waterside, flooding bed, and embankment. Semi-natural rivers showed gentle change in micro-topography, whereas urban one did not so. Our restoration plan to improve the ecological quality of the degraded urban river by imitating semi-natural river was prepared based on those data.

Geotextile containers for restoration of slopes form the interface between the containers during the restored to lost slopes, and therefore the relation displacements are developed including the sliding on the surface. Since, the shear strength on these interfaces is less than that of fill material in the container, the characteristics of shear strength on the interface governs the behavior of the restoration slopes. In general, a lot of natural properties of geotexiles is required to evaluate the safty of the geotextiles, Among the properties, the shear characteristics between geotextiles and soil is a important variable to assess the safety. From the results of full scale direct shear test, the residual shear strength is recommanded to use for design factors since a large deformation possibly occures on the geotextile containers.

The improvement of esthetic dentistry has been accelerated from the development of composite resin and dentin-enamel adhesive since 1980's. The indirect composite resin restorations have more accurate proximal contact point and occlusal form than direct restoration. And the side effect of resin shrinkage is minimal because the amount of composite used in oral cavity is limited in cement space. As a results, marginal leakage, hypersensitivity, secondary caries, and discoloration are significantly diminished. The first generation laboratory composite resin used in indirect resin restoration had been widespread in 1980's and the second generation laboratory composite resins were developed in 1990's. The second generation laboratory composite resins are called Ceramic Polymer. The physical properties of Ceramic Polymer are improved because of high content of inorganic filler, and the esthetics and biocompatibility are better than that of the first generation resin. So the application range using composite resin have been broadened. The purpose of this paper is to introduce Targis & Vectris system that is classified to second generation laboratory composite and to report several cases in which the system was utilized for restoration.

Coastal wetlands are among the most productive biomes in the Earth. The economic values include the direct use of a coastal wetland's ecosystem services, such as food, raw materials, recreation, and tourism. Other values comprise the indirect use of a coastal wetland's ecosystem services, such as carbon sequestration, waste-water treatment, and erosion prevention. In particular, Suncheon Bay is recently attracting attention as the most successful case of the preservation and restoration. This study applies Travel Cost Method (TCM) to estimate the economic value by drawing the demand curve for trips to Suncheon Bay. The TCM is an approach used for economic valuation of non-market goods and services. Based on the results of TCM, this study shows that the economic benefit from recreational uses of the site adds up to \174.7 billion per year. It is also significant in the sense that monetary information is suggested to help local policy makers evaluate the realistic values of coastal wetlands.

본 연구의 목적은 소구치부에 발생한 치외치의 치료방법, 결과, 시기, 각 치료방법의 실패시 임상 증상과 징후 등에 대해 분석하는 것이다. 연구에는 151명의 환자와 417개의 치아가 포함되었다. 치료방법에는 예방적 치료인 레진 수복, 직접 치수복조와 근관 치료인 치수 재혈관화, 치근단 형성술, 전통적인 근관치료가 포함되었다. 예방적 레진 수복은 치외치 결절이 온전한 상태에서 성공적인 결과를 보였으며, 결절이 파절된 경우에도 효과적이었다. 직접 치수복조는 치근단 병소 없이 저작통만 존재할 때 임상 증상의 해소와 치근 성장을 보였다. 치수 재혈관화, 치근단 형성술, 전통적인 근관치료 시 가장 많이 나타난 치료 전 상태는 치근단 병소이었다. 치수 재혈관화는 대부분에서 성공적인 결과를 보였다. 하지만 일부에서 치근 길이 또는 치근벽 두께 증가가 나타나지 않은 경우가 있었다. 치근단 형성술과 전통적인 근관치료는 모두 효과적이었다. 치외치의 예방적 치료 성공률을 높이기 위해 치외치가 교합력을 받지 않을 때이거나 온전한 결절이 존재하는 상태에서 레진 수복이 시행되어야 한다. 결절이 파절된 경우 성공적인 치료를 위해서는 치근발육단계와 치수 상태가 고려되어야 한다.

The purpose of this study is to provide basic data for habitat restoration by implementing a series of processes of capturing and translocating Kaloula borealis and managing them in artificial breeding facilities. The study site in Samcheon, Jeonju-si, Jeollabuk-do was a waste landfill site in the past, and Kaloula borealis was found during the Samcheon Ecological River Restoration Project around March 2018. To restore the habitat, a plan was established to capture, translocate, artificially breed, and release Kaloula borealis at the site. The capture methods of adult Kaloula borealis were pitfall trap and drift fence, direct capture, and deep barrels. During 2018-2019, 86 adults of Kaloula borealis were captured and translocated to artificial breeding facilities. VIE-tagging was inserted under the skin for monitoring. For artificial breeding, Gryllus bimaculatus with oyster powder and vegetables were regularly supplied to feed Kaloula borealis. At the end of October 2020, 150 young Kaloula borealis raised in artificial breeding facilities were found not entering hibernation, so they were managed in a separate artificial breeding facility. Some young and adult Kaloula borealis currently hibernating will be scheduled to be continuously managed in artificial breeding facilities and released to the restored habitat in the spring of 2021.
