The crop damage caused by strong wind was predicted using the wind speed data available from Korean Meteorological Administration (KMA). Wind speed data measured at 19 automatic weather stations in 2012 were compared with wind data available from the KMA's digital forecast. Linear regression equations were derived using the maximum value of wind speed measurements for the three-hour period prior to a given hour and the digital forecasts at the three-hour interval. Estimates of daily maximum wind speed were obtained from the regression equation finding the greatest value among the maximum wind speed at the three-hour interval. The estimation error for the daily maximum wind speed was expressed using normal distribution and Weibull distribution probability density function. The daily maximum wind speed was compared with the critical wind speed that could cause crop damage to determine the level of stages for wind damage, e.g., "watch" or "warning." Spatial interpolation of the regression coefficient for the maximum wind speed, the standard deviation of the estimation error at the automated weather stations, the parameters of Weibull distribution was performed. These interpolated values at the four synoptic weather stations including Suncheon, Namwon, Imsil, and Jangsu were used to estimate the daily maximum wind speed in 2012. The wind damage risk was determined using the critical wind speed of 10m/s under the assumption that the fruit of a pear variety Mansamgil would begin to drop at 10 m/s. The results indicated that the Weibull distribution was more effective than the normal distribution for the estimation error probability distribution for assessing wind damage risk.

자동화 기술을 통한 한국형 스마트팜의 발전이 비약적으로 이루어지고 있는 가운데 무인화를 위한 지능적인 스마트 시설환경 관찰 및 분석에 대한 요구가 점점 증가 하고 있다. 스마트 시설환경에서 취득 가능한 시계열 데이터는 온도, 습도, 조도, CO2, 토양 수분, 환기량 등 다양하다. 시스템의 경계가 명확함에도 해당 속성의 특성상 타임도메인과 공간도메인 상에서 정확한 추정 또는 예측이 난해하다. 시설 환경에 접목이 증가하고 있는 지능형 관리 기술 구현을 위해선 시계열 공간 데이터에 대한 신속하고 정확한 정량화 기술이 필수적이라 할 수 있다. 이러한 기술적인 요구사항을 해결하고자 시도되는 다양한 방법 중에서 공간 분해능 향상을 위한 다지점 계측 메트릭스를 실험적으로 구성하였다. $50m{\times}100m$의 단면적인 연동 딸기 온실을 대상으로 $3{\times}3{\times}3$의 3차원 환경 인자 계측 매트릭스를 설치하였다. 1 Hz의 주기로 4가지 환경인자(온도, 습도, 조도, CO2)를 계측하였으며, 계측 하는 시점과 동시에 병렬적으로 공간통계법을 이용하여 미지의 지점에 대한 환경 인자들을 실시간으로 추정하였다. 선행적으로 50 cm 공간 분해능에 대응하기 위하여 Kriging interpolation법을 횡단면에 대하여 분석한 후 다시 종단면에 대하여 분석하였다. 3 Ghz에 해당하는 연산 능력을 보유한 컴퓨터에서 1초 동안 획득한 데이터에 대한 분석을 마치는데 소요되는 시간이 15초 내외로 나타났다. 이는 해당 알고리즘의 매우 높은 시간 복잡도(Order of $O=O^3$)에 기인하는 것으로 다양한 시설 환경의 관리 방법론에 적절히 대응하기에 한계가 있다 할 수 있다. 실시간으로 시간 복잡도가 높은 연산을 수행하기 위한 기술적인 과제를 해결하고자, 근래에 관심이 증가하고 있는 NVIDIA 사에서 제공하는 CUDA 엔진과 Apple사의 제안을 시작으로 하여 공개 소프트웨어 개발 컨소시엄인 크로노스 그룹에서 제공하는 OpenCL 엔진을 비교 분석하였다. CUDA 엔진은 GPU(Graphics Processing Unit)에서 정보 분석 프로그램의 연산 집약적인 부분만을 담당하여 신속한 결과를 산출할 수 있는 라이브러리이며 해당 하드웨어를 구비하였을 때 사용이 가능하다. 반면, OpenCL은 CUDA 엔진이 특정 하드웨어에서 구동이 되는 한계를 극복하고자 하드웨어에 비의존적인 라이브러리를 제공하는 것이 다르며 클러스터링 기술과 연계를 통해 낮은 하드웨어 성능으로 인한 단점을 극복하고자 하였다. 본 연구에서는 CUDA 8.0(https://developer.nvidia.com/cuda-downloads)버전과 Pascal Titan X(NVIDIA, CA, USA)를 사용한 방법과 OpenCL 1.2(https://www.khronos.org/opencl/)버전과 Samsung Exynos5422 칩을 장착한 ODROID-XU4(Hardkernel, AnYang, Korea)를 사용한 방법을 비교 분석하였다. 50 cm의 공간 분해능에 대응하기 위한 4차원 행렬($100{\times}200{\times}5{\times}4$)에 대하여 정수 지수화를 위한 Quantization을 거쳐 CUDA 엔진과 OpenCL 엔진을 적용한 비교한 결과, CUDA 엔진은 1초 내외, OpenCL 엔진의 경우 5초 내외의 연산 속도를 보였다. CUDA 엔진의 경우 비용측면에서 약 10배, 전력 소모 측면에서 20배 이상 소요되었다. 따라서 우선적으로 OpenCL 엔진 기반 하드웨어 가속 기술 최적화 연구를 통해 스마트 시설환경 실시간 시뮬레이션 기술 도입을 위한 기술적 과제를 풀어갈 것이다.

전산유체역학(CFD: Computational Fluid Dynamics)를 이용한 스마트팜 환경 내부의 정밀 제어 연구가 진행 중이다. 시계열 데이터의 난해한 동적 해석을 극복하기위해, 비선형 모델링 기법의 일종인 인공신경망을 이용하는 방안을 고려하였다. 선행 연구를 통하여 환경 데이터의 비선형 모델링을 위한 Tensorflow활용 방법이 하드웨어 가속 기능을 바탕으로 월등한 성능을 보임을 확인하였다. 그럼에도 오프라인 일괄(Offline batch)처리 방식의 한계가 있는 인공신경망 모델링 기법과 현장 보급이 불가능한 고성능 하드웨어 연산 장치에 대한 대안 마련이 필요하다고 판단되었다. CFD 해석을 위한 Solver로 SU2(http://su2.stanford.edu)를 이용하였다. 운영 체제 및 컴파일러는 1) Mac OS X Sierra 10.12.2 Apple LLVM version 8.0.0 (clang-800.0.38), 2) Windows 10 x64: Intel C++ Compiler version 16.0, update 2, 3) Linux (Ubuntu 16.04 x64): g++ 5.4.0, 4) Clustered Linux (Ubuntu 16.04 x32): MPICC 3.3.a2를 선정하였다. 4번째 개발환경인 병렬 시스템의 경우 하드웨어 가속는 OpenCL(https://www.khronos.org/opencl/) 엔진을 이용하고 저전력 ARM 프로세서의 일종인 옥타코어 Samsung Exynos5422 칩을 장착한 ODROID-XU4(Hardkernel, AnYang, Korea) SBC(Single Board Computer)를 32식 병렬 구성하였다. 분산 컴퓨팅을 위한 환경은 Gbit 로컬 네트워크 기반 NFS(Network File System)과 MPICH(http://www.mpich.org/)로 구성하였다. 공간 분해능을 계측 주기보다 작게 분할할 경우 발생하는 미지의 바운더리 정보를 정의하기 위하여 3차원 Kriging Spatial Interpolation Method를 실험적으로 적용하였다. 한편 병렬 시스템 구성이 불가능한 1,2,3번 환경의 경우 내부적으로 이미 존재하는 멀티코어를 활용하고자 OpenMP(http://www.openmp.org/) 라이브러리를 활용하였다. 64비트 병렬 8코어로 동작하는 1,2,3번 운영환경의 경우 32비트 병렬 128코어로 동작하는 환경에 비하여 근소하게 2배 내외로 연산 속도가 빨랐다. 실시간 CFD 수행을 위한 분산 컴퓨팅 기술이 프로세서의 속도 및 운영체제의 정보 분배 능력에 따라 결정된다고 판단할 수 있었다. 이를 검증하기 위하여 4번 개발환경에서 운영체제를 64비트로 개선하여 5번째 환경을 구성하여 검증하였다. 상반되는 결과로 64비트 72코어로 동작하는 분산 컴퓨팅 환경에서 단일 프로세서 기반 멀티 코어(1,2,3번) 환경보다 보다 2.5배 내외 연산속도 향상이 있었다. ARM 프로세서용 64비트 운영체제의 완성도가 낮은 시점에서 추후 성공적인 실시간 CFD 모델링을 위한 지속적인 검토가 필요하다.

NDSM (Normalized Digital Surface Model) is key information for the detailed analysis of remote sensing data. Although NDSM can be simply obtained by subtracting a DTM (Digital Terrain Model) from a DSM (Digital Surface Model), in case of UAV (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle) data, it is difficult to get an accurate DTM due to high resolution characteristics of UAV data containing a large number of complex objects on the ground such as vegetation and urban structures. In this study, RGB-based UAV vegetation index, ExG (Excess Green) was used to extract initial seed points having low ExG values for region growing such that a DTM can be generated cost-effectively based on high resolution UAV data. For this process, local window analysis was applied to resolve the problem of erroneous seed point extraction from local low ExG points. Using the DSM values of seed points, region growing was applied to merge neighboring terrain pixels. Slope criteria were adopted for the region growing process and the seed points were determined as terrain points in case the size of segments is larger than 0.25 ㎡. Various slope criteria were tested to derive the optimized value for UAV data-based NDSM generation. Finally, the extracted terrain points were evaluated and interpolation was performed using the terrain points to generate an NDSM. The proposed method was applied to agricultural area in order to extract the above ground heights of crops and check feasibility of agricultural monitoring.

Old archived film shows two major defects: line scratch and blobs. In this paper, we present a design and implementation of an automatic video restoration system for line scratches observed in archived film. We use autoregressive (AR) image model because we can make stochastic and specifically autoregressive image generation process with our PAST-PRESENT model and Sampling Pattern. We designed locality maximizing scanning pattern, which can generate nearly stationary time-like series of pixels, which is a strong requirement for a stochastic series to be autoregressive. The sampled pixel series undergoes filtering and model fitting using Durbin-Levinson algorithm before interpolation process. We designed three-stage film restoration system, which includes (1) film acquisition from VHS tapes, (2) simple line scratch detection and restoration, and (3) manual blob identification and sophisticated inpainting scheme. We implemented film acquisition and simple inpainting scheme on Texas Instruments DSP board TMS320DM642 EVM, and implemented our AR inpainting scheme on PC for sophisticated restoration. We experimented our scheme with two old Korean films: "Viva Freedom" and "Robot Tae-Kwon-V", and the experimental results show that our scheme improves Bertalmio's scheme for subjective quality (MOS), objective quality (PSNR), and especially restoration ratio (RR), which reflects how much similar to the manual inpainting results.

A review has been made of mortality trends in Korea from 1958 to 1967 analyzing the data by sex, age and cause of death. The crude death rates and age specific death rates were estimated by the model of N. Keyfitz life table which had been developed by the data of the 1960's national census. The cause specific death rates shown in this article are based on the following: all deaths occurring in the death-registration are expressed as a numberator, while the denominator was estimated from the regular national census data by interpolation method. It is estimated that only an average of about 40% of deaths which occurred during a year were registered during 1958 to 1967. The validity and the reliability of the diagnosis of causes of death seem to be extremely poor in this country. Therefore the cause specific death rates in this article are aimed to reveal trends of causes of registered death ana not for the actual level of death rates. For 10 years very interesing mortality trends were observed : 1. The trend in the crude death rates was downward slowly. 2. The estimated death rate for the infant in 1960 was still high up to 100 per 1,000. 3. The rates for mortality attributed to such infectious diseases as pneumonia, bronchitis, gastroenteritis and measles decreased an average 40-60%. 4. The death rates for over-all tuberculosis decreased only 9.8%. 90% of the decrease was contributed by those in the less-than-15 year age group. 5. The death rates for chronic diseases, such as vascular diseases affecting the central nervous system, malignant neoplasm, major heart diseases and all accidents rose about 40-60%. 6. The rank order of the 10 leading causes of death showed large changes over the years, except for pneumonia and tuberculosis which occupyed 1st and 2nd places respectively. Vascular diseases affecting the central nervous system moved from 5th to 3rd place and malignant neoplasm from 6th to 4th place, The major heart diseases moved from 10th to 6th place and all accidents from 10th to 7th place. On tile other hand, gastroenteritis moved from 3rd to 5th place and influenja from 4th to 8th place.

Animation works have been peformed by the objective sensitivity and experience so far. Software designs have been also manufactured based on intelligent data because they are easy to objectify and digitalize. In contrast, there are many elements, which human senses are hard to objectify and digitalize. This study investigates how to digitalize and objectify human senses and how to use them as the quantitative data and its subject is a flying path. In the experiment, this study collects some sensitive words for how human beings express the living path. The evaluation words for sensitivity through the collected sensitive words are extracted and the sketch images for the flying path are collected from the extracted evaluation words for sensitivity. Based on the collected sketch images, the samples of real moving image, which are the core of this study, are manufactured. Then, quantification theory III and I are used in order to analyze the correlation between the sensitive words representing the flying path and the samples of moving image. As a result, this study can figure out the structure of sensitive words and the samples of moving image and analyze the physical stimulating elements for the flying path. The flying path corresponds to the path that the object has passed. Some unique sensitive words are expressed by means of interacting some sensitive stimulating elements after looking at such a path. There are some elements that stimulate the senses and they include the physical elements such as speed, rotation, pattern and length of arc. The purpose of this study is to objectify and quantify the animation works that are created by animators' subjective thought and experience and to use them in animation works in the future.

It is indispensable to use the process and device simulation tool in order to analyze accurately the electrical characteristics of ULSI CMOS devices, in addition to developing and manufacturing those devices. The 3D Monte Carlo (MC) simulation result is not efficient for large-area application because of the lack of simulation particles. In this paper is reported a new efficient simulation strategy for 3D MC ion implantation into large-area application using the 3D MC code of TRICSI(TRansport Ions into Crystal Silicon). The strategy is related to our newly proposed split-trajectory method and ion-splitting method(ion-shadowing approach) for 3D large-area application in order to increase the simulation ions, not to sacrifice the simulation accuracy for defects and implanted ions. In addition to our proposed methods, we have developed the cell based 3D interpolation algorithm to feed the 3D MC simulation result into the device simulator and not to diverge the solution of continuous diffusion equations for diffusion and RTA(rapid thermal annealing) after ion implantation. We found that our proposed simulation strategy is very computationally efficient. The increased number of simulation ions is about more than 10 times and the increase of simulation time is not twice compared to the split-trajectory method only.
