This paper proposes adaptive reference structure decision method to improve the performance of HEVC (High Efficiency Video Coding) encoder. When an event occurs in the input sequence, such as scene change, scene rotation, fade in/out, or light on/off, the proposed algorithm changes the reference structure to improve the inter prediction performance. The proposed algorithm divides GOP (Group Of Pictures) into two sub-groups based on the picture that has such event and decides the reference pictures in the divided sub-groups. Also, this paper proposes fast encoding method which changes the picture type of first encoded picture in the GOP that has such event to CRA (Clean Random Access). With the statistical feature that intra prediction is selected by high probability for the first encoded picture in the GOP carrying such event, the proposed fast encoding method does not operate inter prediction. The experimental result shows that the proposed adaptive reference structure decision method improves the BD-rate 0.3% and reduces encoding time 4.9% on average under the CTC (Common Test Condition) for standardization. In addition, the proposed reference structure decision method with the picture type change reduces the average encoding time 12.2% with 0.11% BD-rate loss.

Silica- or titania-filled poly (vinylidene fluoride-co-hexafluoropropylene)-based polymer electrolytes were prepared by phase inversion technique using N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone and dimethyl acetamide as solvent and water as non-solvent. The polymer electrolytes were adopted to the lithium metal polymer battery using high-capacity cathode $Li[Ni_{0.15}Co_{0.10}Li_{0.20}Mn_{0.55}]O_2$ and lithium metal anode. After the repeated charge-discharge test for the cell, it was proved that the cell adopting the polymer electrolyte based on the phase-inversion membrane containing 40~50 wt% silica showed the highest discharge capacity (180 mAh/g) until 80th cycle and then abrupt capacity fade was just followed. The capacity fade might be due to the deposition of lithium dendrite on the polymer electrolyte, in which the capacity retention was no longer sustainable.

The effect of draw ratio (8, 10, 12, 14 times) and additive CaCO₃ content (0, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, and 3.0 wt%) on the properties of high-performance PE monofilament was investigated in this study. As the draw ratio increased (8-14 times), the melting enthalpy (ΔHf), crystallinity, specific gravity, and tensile strength increased significantly. However, the draw ratio had little effect on the melting temperature (Tm) and crystallization temperature (Tc). The seawater fastness (stain and fade) of the hydrophobic PE monofilament prepared in this study showed an excellent grade of 4-5 in all draw ratios. To investigate the effect of the additive CaCO₃ content on the properties of high-performance PE monofilament, the draw ratio was fixed at 14 times. It was found that the tensile strength of the PE monofilament sample containing 0.5 wt% of CaCO₃ was much greater compared to the sample without CaCO₃, but the elongation of the sample containing 0.5 wt% of CaCO₃ was much less than the sample with 0 wt% CaCO₃. However, in the case of the sample containing more than 0.5 wt% CaCO₃, the tensile strength slightly decreased and the elongation slightly increased as the CaCO₃ content increased. The seawater fastness (stain and fade) of the hydrophobic PE monofilament showed excellent grades of 4-5, regardless of the amount of additives. From the above results, it was found that the maximum draw ratio of 14 times with an additive of 0.5 wt% CaCO₃ are the optimal conditions for manufacturing high-performance marine fusion materials with various fineness (denier) with high strength and low elongation.

In this study, electrostatic behavior of polyester and nylon fabric treated with anti-static agents were investigated. The effects of the concentration of the agents and curing conditions on the electrostatic charge of the fabrics were studied. And washfastness, lightfastness and physicalproperties of the treated fabrics were also investigated. The results were as follows: 1) Polyethylene glycol alkylester was more effective in antistatic behavior than polyethylene laurylphosphate, and polyester is more effective in anti-static behavior than nylon. 2) Concentration of anti-static agents were suitable in concentration of $4\%$. 3) Glyoxal resin was more effective in anti-static behavior than melamine resin, and it was also good in the retaing anti-static behavior after treatments of lightfastness and washfastness. 4) As the condition of curing treatment, $190^{\circ}C$, 1min. for glyoxal resin and $130^{\circ}C$, 4min. for melamine resin is appropriate. 5) In comparison of anti-static behavior according to treating conditions, the simultaneous treatment was more effective than any other treatments. 6) Change of electrostatic charge of anti-static nylon cloths after treatments of lightfastness and washfastness increased greatly in above 10 laundering time and 20 fade-O-meter time. 7) In physical properties according to concentration of treating agents. decrease of physical properties scarcely appeared in concentration of treating agents $4\~5\%$.

The brake performance of sintered friction materials for the high speed train was studied. In this study, newly developed sintered materials based on copper were compared with the commercial products for high speed trains. They were tested on a 1/5 scale dynamometer using low carbon steel disks. Effectiveness, fade, and recovery tests were carried out to examine friction performance and the change of disk thickness variation (DTV) during brake applications and noise propensity were also evaluated. Results showed that the two sintered friction materials exhibit similar friction coefficients and braking performance, whereas the newly developed friction material was superior in terms of DTV generation and noise propensity to the commercial friction material. The improvement of the newly developed friction material was attributed to the high graphite content which reduced the stick-slip phenomena and prevented uneven disk wear by producing friction films on the counter disk.

The purpose of this study is to find the character of Cleopatra (69 B.C-30 B.C) by analyzing materials about Cleopatra, and to figure out symbolism and costume presented in movie . Costume of the main character, Cleopatra, compound the type of Egyptian traditional clothes, the change of it, and the trend in the 1960's. And, the symbolic meaning of it is also reinforced by adding ancient Egyptian myth to it. This kind of symbol is usually represented in Cleopatra clothing, especially in weaving pattern, embroidery, and ornament. And color of the clothes not only have their on predominance, but also can have their meaning fade away by mixed with each other, and also the shape has relation with the meaning of color. To sum up, the color and pattern of ancint Egyptian Cleopatra as alive formalize the power that come from coherence with the sun god in the center, which a used to maintain the power of the king. Costume in movie also contained color and pattern as a symbol of religion to symbolize the absolute power of king. These kinds of symbols are reemerging through historical recurrences and exotic interests.

Mc-OFDM(Multi code-Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) modulation has been developed for high-speed data transmission over wireless channels. However, this system suffers critical problem from relatively high PAPR(Peak to Average Power Ratio). To reduce PAPR, we suggest a new technique, called Mapping using (N+1)PSK and demonstrate the performance of mapped Mc-OFDM system. On the other side, in OFDM system, each sub-carrier experiences different fading, thus some sub-carriers may be completely lost because of deep fade. To solve a above mention problem, we propose cooperative communications that improve the reliability of sub-carriers through spatial diversity.

In the comprehension of English texts, Korean students generally try to translate English into Korean in accordance with the word order of Korean language. As a result, the comprehension of English texts is made in a regressive way, which results in slower reading. In order to enhance the reading speed, it is necessary for students to practice progressive reading. Also, while reading English texts, most readers' eyes tend to look at one word at a time, which actually cuts down on the reading speed. Reading by the sense group of as many words as possible at a glance, however, can help a reader more efficiently in less time. This research aims at developing the Powerpoint program for progressive reading by the sense group according to the student's level. In this program, as for methodology, the technique of rooking it fade-away is introduced to force a reader's eyes to move fast. Through this technique, it is possible to make a line of the texts disappear on the screen and make another line appear, which enables a reader to sweep the words across each and every line of the reading material smoothly without regression.

In this paper, we introduce an interface for exploring music using emotional model. First, we survey arousal-valence factors of various music and calculate a correlation between audio fefatures of music and arousal-valence factors to build an AV model. Then, various music is aligned and arranged using the AV model and the user can explore music in this interface. To select the desired music more intuitively, we introduce new fade in/out function based on the location of the user's mouse point. We also offer several mode of selecting music so user can explore music using most suitable mode of interface. With our interface, the user can find the emotionally desired music more easily.

Pt/Ti/Si 기판 위에 성장시킨 박막 전지용 비정질 산화 바나듐 박막에 고상 전해질 박막 LiPON을 이용하여 전고상형 박막전지를 제작하여 충-방전 시험을 시행하였다. 이렇게 제작된 전고상형 박막전지는 500 사이클 이상까지 평균 15$\mu$Ah의 방전용량을 나타내었으나 초기 사이클 영역부터 방전 용량의 감소가 일어나기 시작했다. 박막 전지의 방전 용량 감소에 따른 비정질 산화 바나듐 박막의 구조적 특성 변화를 관찰하기 위하여 고분해능 현미경 분석을 시행하였다. 충-방전을 하지 않은 초기의 산화 바나듐 박막은 입계를 갖지 않고 다결정 특성을 보이지 않는 완전한 비정질 특성을 보였고 이는 TED 결과와 일치하였다. 그러나 450번의 반복적인 충-방전을 시행한 후의 비정질 산화 바나듐 박막 내에는 microcrystalline 형태의 산화 바나듐의 형성됨을 고분해능 전자 현미경 분석을 통해 발견할 수 있었다. 비정질 산화바나듐 박막의 방전 용량 감소의 원인인 Li의 비가역적 탈-삽입은 비정질 내에 형성된 microcrystalline에 의해 유발된다고 사료된다. 또한 LiPON 전해질 박막과 산화 바나듐 박막사이의 계면에 Li 이온과 산화바나듐과의 반응에 의해 형성된 계면 층에 발견할 수 있었는데 이러한 계면 층 역시 Li 확산과 계면 저항에 영향을 주어 방전 용량 감소에 원인으로 작용한다.
