Four experiments were conducted to examine whether maintaining the same conceptual context across study and test would affect performance on a perceptual implicit memory task. The sense-specific theory of priming (Lewandowsky et al., 1989) predicts greater priming from a match in conceptual context across study and test compared with a condition in which the conceptual context is mismatched, whereas the transfer-appropriate-processing view (e.g., Blaxton, 1989) predicts no difference. In experiment 1 and 2, little or no effect of varying context was observed on a implicit task. In experiment 3 and 4, a process-dissociation procedure (proposed by Jacoby, 1991) was used to separate automatic influences from consciously controlled influence in implicit memory, which was measured by Korean word completion task. The results showed that conceptual context effect was observed in consciously controlled parts of implicit memory. These results suggest that only consciously controlled processing parts of implicit memory is sensitive to conceptual context.

유비쿼터스 컴퓨팅 환경에서 가장 중요한 이슈중의 하나는 상황인지(Context-Aware)가 가능한 환경을 구축하는 것이다. Context-Aware 환경이 구축되면 주변의 상황을 감지하여 특정 어플리케이션을 실행한다거나, 시스템을 재구성하는 등의 일을 수행할 수 있다. 그동안 이런 상황인지가 가능한 환경을 Context-Aware 미들웨어를 통해 구현하려는 연구가 많이 수행되었다. Context-Aware 미들웨어를 구현하기 위해 무엇보다도 중요한 것은 실제 세계의 다양한 종류의 상황을 컴퓨팅 환경에 적용시키는 것이다. 그러나 현실 세계에서 Context의 종류는 거의 무한하다고 할 수 있다. 기술이 발전하게 되면서 인지 가능한 Context의 종류도 무한정 늘어나게 될 것이다 또한 실제 세계에서의 Context들은 추상적인 경우가 많이 있다. 그러나 Context가 추상적이라 해도 다른 Context 정보를 이용해서 구체화 할 수 있다. 이런 과정을 위해 Conte지들을 계층적으로 관리해야 할 필요가 있다. 본 논문에서는 Context-Aware 미들웨어를 구현할 때 Context들의 이런 여러 가지 특성들을 고려해서 Context Type을 관리랄 수 있는 하나의 객체를 제안하고, 다른 방법들과 비교, 분석해 보았다.

With the recent increase in the number of households raising pets, various engineering studies have been underway for pets. The final purpose of this study is to automatically generate situation-sensitive captions that can express implicit intentions based on the behavior and sound of cats by embedding the already mature behavioral detection technology of pets as basic element technology in the video capturing research. As a pilot project to this end, this paper proposes a high-level capturing system using optical-flow, RGB, and sound information of cat videos. That is, the proposed system uses video datasets collected in an actual breeding environment to extract feature vectors from the video and sound, then through hierarchical LSTM encoder and decoder, to identify the cat's behavior and its implicit intentions, and to perform learning to create context-sensitive captions. The performance of the proposed system was verified experimentally by utilizing video data collected in the environment where actual cats are raised.

This discovery-oriented study explored 31 social workers' perceptions of discrepancies between explicit and implicit rules in their work places that are supposed to affect the quality of social work services, and identified eight categories of dilemmas: (a) confused accountability or purpose, (b) ambiguous principle, (c) improper authority, (d) confused role of social workers, (e) conflict between ideal and reality, (f) confused work ethics, (g) confused boundary of workers' rights, and (h) binds. These eight categories revealed the real philosophy and purposes of social work agencies, work ethics and values prevalent among social work agencies, agencies' orientation toward clients, and the conditions of social support from the society in large. Instead of searching for discrete variables as separately responsible for inefficient social work services, this approach probed malfunctioning implicit rules in a holistic context to see if inefficient or ineffective provision of social work services is a logical response to a much larger and deeper nexus. Insight into discrepant rules does not solely ensure the improvement of social work practice in the field, particularly if their identification is simply used as another opportunity to blame and avoid self-responsibility. However, such discrepancies between implicit and explicit rules are real enough to the staff workers and agency administrators that they may want to begin the dialogue of contradictory rules as a way of sanctioning discussion of previously forbidden topics. This study provided the ground-work for the dialogue.

Current smartphone authentication systems are deemed inconvenient and difficult for users on remembering their password as well as privacy issues on stolen or forged biometrics. New authentication system is demanded to be implicit to users with very minimum user involvement being. This idea aims towards a future model of authentication system for smartphones users without users realizing them being authenticated. We use the most frequent activity that users carry out with their smartphone, which is the calling activity. We derive two basics related interactions that are first factor being arm's flex (AF) action to pick a phone to be near ones' ears and then once getting near ear using second factor from ear shape image. Here, we combine behavior biometrics from AF in first factor and physical biometrics from ear image in second factor. Our study shows our dual-factor authentication system does not require explicit user interaction thereby improving convenience and alleviating burden from users from persistent necessity to remember password. These findings will augment development of novel implicit authentication system being transparent, easier, and unobtrusive for users.

The purpose of this study is to deal with vocabulary in KFL. As a result of this study, learners learned vocabulary on average 43 points through contextual inference and introduction of the class to activate background knowledge. In particular, the implicit method showed the highest learning rate of 52 points, and the thematic method had a 41 point-learning rate. In contrast, the semantic method was the lowest with a 25 point-learning rate. There was no significant difference in the improvement rate of upper vocabulary learners, but in the case of the lower learner, there was significant difference in the improvement rate. The difference was not significant in the post-test relative gain rate of upper learners, but there was significant in lower learners. In the delayed test relative gain rate, the difference was significant in all groups. There was correlation between vocabulary difficulty and score, but there was no correlation with the thematic method. And there was no correlation between vocabulary difficulty, improvement rate and relative gain rate in all three classes. However, content understanding, lexical grade, improvement rate, and relative gain rate showed a significant correlation.

In this research, we propose a dynamic decision making using social context based on ontology. Dynamic adaptation is adopted for the high qualified decision making, which is defined as creation of proper information using contexts depending on decision maker's state of affairs in ubiquitous computing environment. Thereby, the context for the dynamic adaptation is classified as a static, dynamic and social context. Static context contains personal explicit information like demographic data. Dynamic context like weather or traffic information is provided by external information service provider. Finally, social context implies much more implicit knowledge such as social relationship than the other two-type context, but it is not easy to extract any implied tacit knowledge as well as generalized rules from the information. So, it was not easy for the social context to apply into dynamic adaptation. In this light, we tried the social context into the dynamic adaptation to generate context-appropriate personalized information. It is necessary to build modeling methodology to adopt dynamic adaptation using the context. The proposed context modeling used ontology and cases which are best to represent tacit and unstructured knowledge such as social context. Case-based reasoning and constraint satisfaction problem is applied into the dynamic decision making system for the dynamic adaption. Case-based reasoning is used case to represent the context including social, dynamic and static and to extract personalized knowledge from the personalized case-base. Constraint satisfaction problem is used when the selected case through the case-based reasoning needs dynamic adaptation, since it is usual to adapt the selected case because context can be changed timely according to environment status. The case-base reasoning adopts problem context for effective representation of static, dynamic and social context, which use a case structure with index and solution and problem ontology of decision maker. The case is stored in case-base as a repository of a decision maker's personal experience and knowledge. The constraint satisfaction problem use solution ontology which is extracted from collective intelligence which is generalized from solutions of decision makers. The solution ontology is retrieved to find proper solution depending on the decision maker's context when it is necessary. At the same time, dynamic adaptation is applied to adapt the selected case using solution ontology. The decision making process is comprised of following steps. First, whenever the system aware new context, the system converses the context into problem context ontology with case structure. Any context is defined by a case with a formal knowledge representation structure. Thereby, social context as implicit knowledge is also represented a formal form like a case. In addition, for the context modeling, ontology is also adopted. Second, we select a proper case as a decision making solution from decision maker's personal case-base. We convince that the selected case should be the best case depending on context related to decision maker's current status as well as decision maker's requirements. However, it is possible to change the environment and context around the decision maker and it is necessary to adapt the selected case. Third, if the selected case is not available or the decision maker doesn't satisfy according to the newly arrived context, then constraint satisfaction problem and solution ontology is applied to derive new solution for the decision maker. The constraint satisfaction problem uses to the previously selected case to adopt and solution ontology. The verification of the proposed methodology is processed by searching a meeting place according to the decision maker's requirements and context, the extracted solution shows the satisfaction depending on meeting purpose.

The smooth handoff supported by the route optimization extension to the mobile IP standard protocol should support a packet buffering mechanism at the base station (BS), in order to reduce the degradation in TCP performance caused by packet losses within mobile network environments. The purpose of packet buffering at the BS is to recover the packets dropped during intersubnetwork handoff by forwarding the packets buffered at the previous BS to the new BS. However, when the mobile host moves to a congested BS within a new foreign subnetwork, the buffered packets forwarded by the previous BS are likely to be dropped. This subsequently causes global synchronization to occur, resulting in the degradation of the wireless link in the congested BS, due to the increased congestion caused by the forwarded burst packets. Thus, in this paper, we propose an implicit priority forwarding (IPF) packet buffering scheme as a solution to this problem within mobile IP based networks. In the proposed IPF method, the previous BS implicitly marks the priority packets being used for inter-subnetwork handoff. Moreover, the proposed modified random early detection (M-RED) buffer at the new congested BS guarantees some degree of reliability to the priority packets. The simulation results show that the proposed IPF packet buffering scheme increases the wireless link utilization and, thus, it enhances the TCP throughput performance in the context of various intersubnetwork handoff cases.
