Russian language tends to be quite open to borrowing. In Russian it has been for a long time the conventional way of expanding the lexicon, accepting many words from adjacent languages, including Church Slavic. In the contemporary Russian English has been the main source for loanwords. There are several linguistic factors for lexical borrowing: 1. the necessity of denominating new facts, phenomena or concepts, 2. the necessity of differentiating concepts, 3. the necessity of specializing new concepts, 4. the introduction of new international terms, 5. the increase of periphrastic expressions, 6. the needs for the more elegant and modern words. These factors have caused borrowing to enlarge the component of the lexicon and phrasal expressions, but excessive use of foreign words has brought about negative effects such as linguistic pollution. Some borrowed words are assimilated without serious conflicts, but other words undergo semantic changes in confrontation to existing words of similar meanings. These types of semantic changes comprise total change of meaning, reduction of semantic scale and extension of meaning. Semantic changes are caused by linguistic factors such as lexical conflict with existing words or by socio-culural factors such as misunderstanding of foreign words. And extension of meaning shows two types: qualitative extension and quantitative extension. The first means extending the semantic scope of a borrowed word and the latter - increasing the number of its sememe. In contemporary Russian language we can witness two productive phenomena: qualitative extension by socio-cultural factors, in which words with negative nuances are changed into those with positive ones and professional terms become common words, losing their professional meanings. On the other hand, by quantative extension some loanwords change their concrete meanings into abstract ones. In such cases loanwords acquire the additional meanings of abstractness, putting aside their original concrete meanings as the basic. On the contrary, the qualitative extension of adding the special meaning to general words or giving the concrete meaning to abstract words is not productive. And it is rarely witnessed that words of positive nuances are negatively used. It is considered that such cases are partly restricted in the spoken language or the jargon. Such phenomena may happen by the incomplete understanding of English words.

The purpose of this study is to propose a modern use of traditional culture by developing creative fashion designs that combine modern and traditional styles based on an analysis of traditional costumes of women in the Tang Dynasty of China. The characteristics of the Tang Dynasty women's costume are as follows. The Tang Dynasty women's costume consists of a short coat (衫, Shan), skirt (裙, Qun), half-arm shawl (半臂, Banbi), and short embroidered cape (帔, Pei). The colors are succinct and elegant, commonly red, yellow, green and navy blue in its entirety. It may be classified by pattern that blend plant patterns, animal patterns, geometric patterns, and two or more mixed patterns. On the basis of the characteristics for traditional women's costume during the Tang Dynasty, the CLO 3D program is employed to develop digital fashion design for four pairs of 3D digital clothing and the production of two pairs of work product. The results are as follows. First, the development of fashion design reflecting the design characteristics of traditional women's clothing in the Tang Dynasty of China could be expressed as fashion design reflecting unique values while connecting tradition and modernity. Second, the 3D virtual clothing program displays an extremely important effect in design deployment and pattern arrangement by having efficiency and convenience in clothing production. The CLO 3D program is closely combined with the 2D design and 3D effect and heightened efficiency while being appropriate to realize sustainability while saving processing time and energy for the sample products. Third, the production of an actual product by facilitating the 3D virtual clothing design may lead to time savings and an effective economy and may allow for the comparison of digital fashion design and actual products as well as confirming the effects of digital fashion design.

Giorgio Armani has made a huge success with his own persistent unique fashion styles for the last 30 years. But he too went through a transitional period during which he was criticized for lacking the so-called Armani design. Overcoming the confusion, however, he succeeded in recreating his styles of elegant image and fascinating people with his practical and yet sophisticated modern classical styles that he pioneered. The design characteristics of his men's clothing are as follows; functional and comfortable slim silhouettes that bring life to the curves of the human body, grey-based mixed colors in a natural atmosphere, natural materials such as wool, silk, and cashmere that are light and soft and have great drape properties with femininity, solid patterns with stripes, checks, and geometrical figures added, and the elegance expressed in moderate decorations such as a handkerchief and scarf. Armani men's clothing has enjoyed ongoing popularity and success across the world because it transcends time and allows men to maintain their class not being bound by the formality. It's also important to notice that Armani takes into account the perspectives of both men who wear his clothes and women who look at the men in his clothes.

본 논문에서는 감성 기반으로 텍스타일을 자동으로 색인하고 검색 할 수 있는 시스템을 제안한다. 제안된 시스템은 영상 수집기, 감성 색인기, 검색기(Matcher), 질의 인터페이스로 구성되어 있다. 감성 색인기는 텍스타일 영상에 포함된 컬러와 패턴 정보를 기반으로 감성개념을 인식하고, 이를 이용하여 영상을 색인한다. 이때, 감성 어휘로 고바야시가 정의한 8개 (romantic, natural, casual, elegant, chic, classic, dandy, modern)를 사용한다. 질의 인터페이스에서 사용자는 두 가지 방식으로 질의를 선택할 수 있다. 첫 번째 방법은 감성 키워드를 사용하는 것이고, 두 번째는 사용자의 의도를 설명할 수 있는 영상을 이용하는 예제 기반 질의 방식이다. 질의가 주어지면, 검색기는 랭킹 알고리즘을 사용하여 검색 결과를 생성한다. 이 때, 유사도 비교방식은 선택된 질의방식에 따라 달라진다. 제안된 시스템의 성능을 검증하기 위해 웹 검색에 익숙한 50명(남자: 32명, 여자: 18명)을 대상으로 웹에서 수집한 3,416 장에 대해서 3가지 항목으로 사용자 평가를 하였다. 사용자 평가의 항목인 적합도(Relevance), 노력(Search Effort), 만족도(Satisfaction)의 결과로 사용자가 검색한 결과영상에서 적합도의 수치가 낮게 나왔지만, 만족도와 노력의 수치는 높게 평가되었다. 제안된 시스템에서 사용자는 자신이 선호하는 결과 영상을 상위 40개의 영상 내에서 얻을 수 있었다. 이는 제안된 시스템이 사용자들이 원하는 영상을 효율적으로 검색할 수 있다는 것을 증명했다.

본 논문에서는 감성 공간에서 mean shift clustering과 user feedback을 이용하여 영상 검색 결과를 개선하기 위한 시스템을 제안한다. 제안된 시스템은 사용자 인터페이스, 감성 공간 변환, 검색결과 순위 재지정(re-ranking)으로 구성된다. 사용자 인터페이스는 텍스트 형태의 질의 입력과 감성 어휘 선택에 따른 user feedback에 의해 개선된 검색결과를 보인다. 사용된 감성 어휘는 고바야시가 정의한 romantic, natural, casual, elegant, chic, classic, dandy, modern 등의 8개 어휘를 사용한다. 감성 공간 변환 단계에서는 입력된 질의에 따라 웹 영상 검색 엔진(Yahoo)에 의해 검색된 결과 영상들에 대해 컬러와 패턴정보의 특징을 추출하고, 이를 입력으로 하는 8개의 각 감성별 분류기에 의해 각 영상은 8차원 감성 공간으로의 특징 벡터로 변환된다. 이때 감성 공간으로 변환된 특징 벡터들은 mean shift clustering을 통해 군집화 되고, 그 결과로써 대표 클러스터를 찾게 된다. 검색결과 순위 재지정 단계에서는 user feedback 유무에 따라 대표 클러스터의 평균 벡터와 user feedback에 의해 생성된 사용자 감성 벡터에 의해 검색 결과를 개선할 수 있다. 이때 각 기준에 따라 유사도가 결정되고 검색결과 순위가 재지정 된다 제안된 시스템의 성능을 검증하기 위해 7개의 질의의 각 400장, 총 2,800장에 대한 Yahoo 검색 결과와 제안된 시스템을 개선된 검색 결과를 비교하였다.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the aesthetic characteristics of check fashion of the 20th century and to analyze the formativeness for them shown in recent collections. The results of this study are as follows; 1) Before the First World War, check patterns were used for S silhouette dresses and hobble dresses. During the two wars, they were used for garçonne style dresses and military suits. Check patterns were used for mini style in the 1960s, uni-sex style in the 1970s, and power suits in the 1980s. Especially after the 1980s, check patterns have followed the fashion trend of each season and appeared in retro styles. Consequently, the aesthetic characteristics of check dresses of the 20th century are traditionality, ornamentation and eclecticism. 2) Traditionality of check fashion shown in recent collections was implied in the classic styles like suits with its grey glen check, avant-garde styles like boxy coat with its dark blue tartan check, and so forth. Ornamentation was shown in the modern styles like jackets decorated with block check colored white and black, casual styles like bomber jackets with hound tooth check colored white and black, and so forth. Eclecticism was reflected in the romantic styles like one-piece dresses with hound tooth check colored white and light blue, elegant styles like low-cut dress with its dark blue window pane check, ethnic styles like long cape with gingham check colored white and black, and so forth.
