This study aims to investigate national image of South Korea held by russians. Surveys(based on Free-association Image) and discussion were conducted on LiveJournal (internet blog) with russian netizen. A national image is influenced by a subjective perspective rather than an objective one. Therefore, an image can differ substantially from reality. Futhermore, it takes a long time to change an established image, particularly to a positive image. According to the results, the image of South Korea were dominated by unstable political situations, especially factors related to North Korea. In addition, based on Free-association image, thinking about Korea or Korean, most russians recognize Korea(South) with North Korea. Above all Russians recognize Korea, basing their images on factor of the past or their neighbors-russian korean- or famous Korean brand like Samsung, LG, Hyndai, "Dosirak". Russian netizen did not recognize South Korea as one of leading countries in Asia, paying little attention to South Korea compared to China or Japan. We belive that it is necessary to consider these situations in future efforts to enhance the national image of South Korea.

This study is about the creation of a character art using the free association. Character in proposed artwork induces the viewer's unconscious experience associated with it and creates new meanings to invigorate the character. When a character that performs both a linguistic function and a visual image function goes through a free association process, the viewer can induce interest and convey the meaning of the character more effectively. We proposed two ways to express the dynamic movement of the character more actively. One is drawing using various colors and free lines, and the other is the movement of the character synchronized with the gesture of the viewer. As a result of implementing dynamic character art, we can see that the viewer was actively involved in the free association process and immersed in the artwork. The viewers participated in the creation of the artwork, changing the shape of the character according to their various gestures.

Jacquin에 의해 프랙탈 이론을 이용한 영상 부호화기법이 소개된 이래로, Fisher와Beaumont등에 의하여 낮은 비트율에서도 우수한 화질을 제공하는 프랙탈 영상 압축 기법들이 다수 제안되었다. 그러나 기존에 고안된 기법들이 갖고 있는 하나의 문제점은 복호화가 반복 처리를 통해 구현되며 그 복잡도가 각각의 영상에 따라 상이하다는 것이다. 본 논문에서는 복호 시간을 단축시키기 위해 반복 변환이 필요 없는 프랙탈 영상 복호 알고리즘을 제안하고자 한다. 제안된 방법은 복호기에서 사용할 초기 영상과 동일한 코드북 영상을 부호기에 보유하고 있는 상태에서 부호화 과정에서는 이 코드북 영상과 부호화하려는 영상의 유사성을 찾아 프랙탈 계수를 구한다. 이후, 복호화 과정에서는 수신된 프랙탈 계수와 기설정된 초기 영상을 이용하여 반복 변환 없이 한 번에 영상을 복호함으로써 복호 시간을 현저하게 단축시킬 수 있었다.

This study attempted to make a comparative investigation into architecture and fashion. It was intended to grasp the contemporary meaning of fashion expressed in fashion by investigating the image of lightness expressed in contemporary fashion. With the increasing trend of the characteristics of lightness over the whole field of contemporary design, this study took an opportunity to probe its understanding and a desirable direction of expression. The study results were summarized as follows: First, flexibility conveys comfortableness and lightness that makes people feel wear no costume in a soft and flowing style. This phenomenon is thought to express the desire to depart from the dismal and heavy ideology of the past times. Second, lightness is expressed as the virtual transparency felt from what is spatial. It shows a sense of openness while removing the internal and external boundary. Third, liberalness expresses the unfettered consciousness of freedom by expressing an open, free image through free, thin and transparent fashion.

In this paper we propose a method for verifying video in a video telephony system implemented in DM6446 DaVinci Processor. Each frame is categorized either error free frame or error frame depending on the predefined criteria. Human face is chosen as a basic means for authenticating the video frame. Skin color based algorithm is implemented for detecting the face in the video frame. The video frame is classified as error free frame if there is single face object with clear view of facial features (eyes, nose, mouth etc.) and the background of the image frame is not different then the predefined background, otherwise it will be classified as error frame. We also implemented the image histogram based NCC (Normalized Cross Correlation) comparison for video verification to speed up the system. The experimental result shows that the system is able to classify frames with 90.83% of accuracy.

The purpose of this study is to examine the modern men's fashion coordination to see the image in the center of TV dramas in terms of Habitu that is formed within hierarchy and class. The subjects range is included fashion style, color, accessories, hairstyle and appearance. 950 pictures used in the analysis sheet. In research methods, content analysis and basic statistics were used. The results of this study were as follows. First, the hierarchy image formed by Habitus is significant difference. The upper layer is coordinating elite luxurious and prestigious image of the fashion styles. The middle layer is coordinating neat and capable image. The lower layer does not care about the appearance and image appearing weary life is coordinating. Second, the class image formed by Habitus, CEO often interests in fashion image coordination. Senior executive is represented clean and luxurious image. General white color dresses in a suite such as office look.

이미지 데이터가 증가함에 따라 효율적인 검색을 위해서 이미지 데이터를 구조화해야 할 필요성이 증가하고 있다. 이미지 데이터를 구조화하기 위한 대표적인 방법으로는 클러스터링이 있다. 그러나 기존 클러스터링 방법들은 클러스터링을 수행하기 전에 매개변수로서 클러스터의 개수를 사용자로부터 제공 받아야 되는 어려움이 있다. 본 논문에서는 클러스터의 개수를 사용자에게 제공 받지 않고 이미지 데이터를 클러스터링 하는 방안에 대해서 논의 한다. 제안하는 방안은 객체들 간의 상호 연관관계를 이용하여 매개변수 없이 데이터의 감추어진 구조나 패턴을 찾아내는 방법인 Cross-Association을 기반으로 한다. 이미지 데이터 클러스터링에 Cross-Association을 적용하기 위해서는 먼저 이미지 데이터를 그래프로 변환해야 한다. 그런 후에 생성된 그래프를 Cross-Association에 적용시키고 그 결과를 클러스터링 관점에서 해석한다. 본 논문에서는 또한 Cross-Association을 기반으로 계층적 클러스터링 하는 방법과 아웃라이어 검출 방법을 제안한다. 실험을 통해서 제안하는 방법의 우수성을 규명하고 이미지 데이터를 클러스터링 하는데 적절한 k-최근접 이웃검색에서의 k값과 더 나은 그래프 생성 방법이 무엇인지를 제시한다.

People have more expectations for arts and design and accordingly, various artworks were combined with fashion to meet the consumer needs.

Second, free and active image in Henri Matisse's paintings is easy to express efficiency and popularity. It accords with the feature of casual wear. Third, through adding a flowing curved line in Henri Matisse's paintings to materials and applying various colors putting into a curved line image to a rib section, a decorative effect which goes with the whole shape is obtained. This study presents possibility of emergence of unique design using free color arrangement and motif from the image of paintings and aims development of modern fashion design in accordance with modern fashion giving importance to the difference and sensibility by integration of modern garments and artworks.

This study assessed the effectiveness of brand image communication on consumer perceptions of cruelty-free fashion brands. Brand messaging data were gathered from postings on the official Instagram accounts of three cruelty-free fashion brands and consumer perception data were gathered from Tweets containing keywords related to each brand. Web crawling and natural language processing were performed using Python and sentiment analysis was conducted using the BERT model. By analyzing Instagram content from Stella McCartney, Patagonia, and Freitag from their inception until 2021, this study found these brands all emphasize environmental aspects but with differing focuses: Stella McCartney on ecological conservation, Patagonia on an active outdoor image, and Freitag on upcycled products. Keyword analysis further indicated consumers perceive these brands in line with their brand messaging: Stella McCartney as high-end and eco-friendly, Patagonia as active and environmentally conscious, and Freitag as centered on recycling. Results based on the assessment of the alignment between brand-driven images and consumer-perceived images and the sentiment evaluation of the brand confirmed the outcomes of brand communication performance. The study revealed a correlation between brand image and positive consumer evaluations, indicating that higher alignment of ethical values leads to more positive consumer assessments. Given that consumers tend to prioritize search keywords over brand concepts, it's important for brands to focus on using visual imagery and promotions to effectively convey brand communication information. These findings highlight the importance of brand communication by emphasizing the connection between ethical brand images and consumer perceptions.
