The need for various approaches to non-face-to-face identification technology for registering and authenticating users online is being required because of the growth of online financial services and the rapid development of financial technology. In general, non-face-to-face approaches can be exposed to a greater number of threats than face-to-face approaches. Therefore, identification policies and technologies to verify users by using various factors and channels are being studied in order to complement the risks and to be more reliable non-face-to-face identification methods. One of these new approaches is to collect and verify a large number of personal information of user. Therefore, we propose a big-data based non-face-to-face Identity Proofing method that verifies identity on online based on various and large amount of information of user. The proposed method also provides an identification information management scheme that collects and verifies only the user information required for the identity verification level required by the service. In addition, we propose an identity information sharing model that can provide the information to other service providers so that user can reuse verified identity information. Finally, we prove by implementing a system that verifies and manages only the identity assurance level required by the service through the enhanced user verification in the non-face-to-face identity proofing process.

With the growing interest being reflected in the FinTech industry, much attention has been paid to mobile easy payment services as well. In the era of mobile commerce, the core advantage of using mobile easy payment services(simplifying complex payment procedures and thus facilitating user convenience and reducing the chance of giving up payment) are being more emphasized. Mobile easy payment service market not only includes mobile easy payment service providers but also users, non-users, affiliates, banks, and credit card companies as main stakeholders. Exploring those stakeholders is thus important to thoroughly understand such market. However, extant literature on mobile easy payment services mostly focuses on examining adoption intention of users or non-users. This study, an exploratory research based on interviews, thus aims to extract driving as well as inhibiting factors of mobile easy payment service use from six different perspectives (i.e., social platform, bank, credit card company, affiliate, user, and non-user) and analyze a sequence of cause and effect for each factor. For this, the causal loop diagram was developed to deduce key issues and propose an alternative. Theoretical and practical implications of this study will also be discussed.

An amphibious inspection robot system (hereafter AIROS) is being developed to visually inspect the in-containment refueling storage water tank (hereafter IRWST) strainer in APR1400 instead of a human diver. Four IRWST strainers are located in the IRWST, which is filled with boric acid water. Each strainer has 108 sub-assembly strainer fin modules that should be inspected with the VT-3 method according to Reg. guide 1.82 and the operation manual. AIROS has 6 thrusters for submarine voyage and 4 legs for walking on the top of the strainer. An inverse kinematic algorithm was implemented in the robot controller for exact walking on the top of the IRWST strainer. The IRWST strainer has several top cross braces that are extruded on the top of the strainer, which can be obstacles of walking on the strainer, to maintain the frame of the strainer. Therefore, a robot leg should arrive at the position beside the top cross brace. For this reason, we used an image processing technique to find the top cross brace in the sole camera image. The sole camera image is processed to find the existence of the top cross brace using the cross edge detection algorithm in real time. A 5-DOF robot arm that has multiple camera modules for simultaneous inspection of both sides can penetrate narrow gaps. For intuitive presentation of inspection results and for management of inspection data, inspection images are stored in the control PC with camera angles and positions to synthesize and merge the images. The synthesized images are then mapped in a 3D CAD model of the IRWST strainer with the location information. An IRWST strainer mock-up was fabricated to teach the robot arm scanning and gaiting. It is important to arrive at the designated position for inserting the robot arm into all of the gaps. Exact position control without anchor under the water is not easy. Therefore, we designed the multi leg robot for the role of anchoring and positioning. Quadruped robot design of installing sole cameras was a new approach for the exact and stable position control on the IRWST strainer, unlike a traditional robot for underwater facility inspection. The developed robot will be practically used to enhance the efficiency and reliability of the inspection of nuclear power plant components.

The local migration or movement behavior of fishes in streams are related to feeding, spawning, growing, dispersing, and refuging. The pale chub (Zacco platypus) is a dominant species that migrates locally and inhabits in river and stream in Korea. However, dams, weirs, culverts and other regulatory structures are physical barriers that limit fish movement and fragment habits and populations. If main stream and off-channel habitats are connected with culverts, they would restrict the small fish as pale chub movement due to the high flow velocities and low depths. But in Korea, there is no experimental study to evaluate the swimming performance of species in Korea. Therefore, it is difficult to proposed that design guidelines for pass fishes through culverts. The purpose of this experimental study is to evaluate the swimming performance of pale chubs. A series of swimming performance test has been used in both of the fixed velocity and the incremental velocity methods in an experimental flume. As a result, the critical swimming speed for pale chub(body length 8.9 cm) was found to be about 0.7 m/s. Therefore, the flow velocity for culvert design in the low flow condition should not be exceed the its swimming ability, especially 0.7 m/s for pale chubs(body length 8.9 cm). And the minimum depth for culvert design in the low flow condition should not be lower than the fish body height add a dorsal fin height.

In this paper, an 1.2V 8b 1GS/s A/D Converter(ADC) based on a folding architecture with a resistive interpolation technique is described. In order to overcome the asymmetrical boundary-condition error of conventional folding ADCs, a novel scheme with an odd number of folding blocks and a fractional folding rate are proposed. Further, a new digital encoding technique with an arithmetic adder is described to implement the proposed fractional folding technique. The proposed ADC employs an iterating offset self-calibration technique and a digital error correction circuit to minimize device mismatch and external noise The chip has been fabricated with a 1.2V 0.13um 1-poly 6-metal CMOS technology. The effective chip area is $2.1mm^2$ (ADC core : $1.4mm^2$, calibration engine : $0.7mm^2$) and the power dissipation is about 350mW including calibration engine at 1.2V power supply. The measured result of SNDR is 46.22dB, when Fin = 10MHz at Fs = 1GHz. Both the INL and DNL are within 1LSB with the self-calibration circuit.

The early life history of Korean bullhead, Pseudobagrus fulvidraco was studied to obtain some information required in aquaculture and reinforcement of natural population. The fertilized eggs were almost spherical in shape and demersal. The egg membranes were transparent with minute folds on the surface, causing them to stick to other substrates. Yolk is yellowish without oil droplets. The eggs just after fertilization were measuring $1.4{\pm}0.03mm$(1.3~1.5mm, n=10) and expanded to $1.7{\pm}0.08mm$(1.6~1.8mm, n=10) in diameter in 1.5 hr. The blastodisc was formed in 30 min and cleavage started in 1 hr after fertilization, and the intervals of each stage of cleavage was about 30 min at $25.0^{\circ}C$. The yolk from 32-cell stage to gastrula stage partly depressed and the depressed part moved clockwise. Hatching occurred in 53 hr after fertilization and hatched embryos had 18~19+20~21(38~40) myomeres measuring 4.2~4.3mm in total length. At the age 7 d after hatching, 4 pairs of barbels were already formed ; 1 pair on the posterior part of the nostril, 1 pair on the upper jaw, and 2 pairs on the lower jaw. And the posterior margin of caudal fin changed into two folds. The lateral band and the form of all fins were completed in 3 weeks.

We investigated to egg development and early life history of Tribolodon brandtii in the Korean peninsula. The fertilized eggs of the T. brandtii were slightly adhesive and separated with a yellow yolk and no oil globule, and they was an average of $2.4{\pm}0.2mm$ in diameter. The hatching of the embryo took place in about 60 hrs after fertilization under water temperature of $20{\pm}1^{\circ}C$ and the newly hatched larvae were average $6.4{\pm}0.4mm$ in total length. At 10 days after hatching, they were average $11.7{\pm}0.2mm$ in total length and their yolk sac were completely absorbed. At 46 days after hatching, they became to juvenile stage and reached $19.6{\pm}2.7mm$ in total length and all their fin rays were formed. At 125 days after hatching, the juvenile were $54.9{\pm}15.8mm$ in total length and their body shape were similar to the adult fish. At 236 days after hatching, they fish were $54.9{\pm}15.8mm$ in total length and their body color were similar to the adult fish.

Population ecology of Cobitis tetralineata was examined at Churyeong Stream, Seomjin River, Korea. C. tetralineata inhabited on the sand bottoms with $10{\sim}20cm/see$ in current velocity, and $30{\sim}150cm$ in water depth. This species was active on the sand during the daylight hours from March to October, but they hibernated in the inside of the sand during the winter season. Sex ratio of female to male was 1:0.57, and female was $20{\sim}30mm$ (TL) larger than male. The age group of C. tetralineata (female) population showed that the $20{\sim}40mm$ group is 0+ years old, the $45{\sim}65mm$ group 1+ years old, the $65{\sim}90mm$ group 2+ years old, and the group longer than 90 mm over 3 years old. Males $13{\sim}14$ months old after hatching had lamina circularis at the base of its pectoral fin as a secondary sexual character. And in its spawning season, lateral color pattern of male was changed as a sexual dimorphism. The spawning season may be from late June to middle July, $22{\sim}26^{\circ}C$ water temperature. The average number of mature eggs in ovary was about $1,288{\pm}583(474{\sim}2,976)$, egg diameter was about $0.98{\pm}0.1mm$. C. tetralineata fed mainly on Chironomidae, Arcellidae, Branchioda and Algae. The feeding rate was the highest in April and September, but they did not fed in the winter.
