Colors, as a part of contents, have great implications to consumers. Each individual feels the image of colors as an outcome of the accumulated experience or knowledge of oneself. This study aims to find the personality and meaning of color images through the predicted trend colors and to analyze the consumers' attitude towards them. We found that the 5 major trend colors such as Crystal Sound, Creamy Touch, Mysterious Vintage, Autumn Forest and Carnival seem to have their own personality images. Furthermore, we discovered that Crystal Sound has an image of a self-made man, Creamy Touch a highschool girl, Mysterious Vintage a God father, Autumn Forest the public and Carnival a circus clown as a result of additional adjective image analysis. In addition, customers marked the highest preference for Creamy Touch. The research result shows that the personality of an individual and that of colors are coincide and it might bring about a positive consumer behavior. And this research has a significant meaning since it is a sort of interdisciplinary study in-between fashion and marketing and it should be studied further later.

The purpose of the study is to construct a History Ontology Model for historical person to analyse issues of Korean History Thesaurus and interview history specialists who are use information systems in National Institute of Korean History. This study verifies the difference between both descriptions through comparative analysis of term concept in Korean History Thesaurus and mind-map written by history major. Based on this, we build history ontology model to meet users' information needs and adapt to information retrieval system. First, to organize unique features of history, we define class and attribute and then enlisted considerations for instance input. The study suggests a possibility of new service through combination multiple features using concept extension that is a strength of ontology.

As we enter a new era of Big Data, the amount of semantic data has rapidly increased. In order to derive meaningful information from this large semantic data, studies that utilize the SWRL(Semantic Web Rule Language) are being actively conducted. SWRL rules are based on data extracted from a user's empirical knowledge. However, conventional reasoning systems developed on single machines cannot process large scale data. Similarly, multi-node based reasoning systems have performance degradation problems due to network shuffling. Therefore, this paper overcomes the limitations of existing systems and proposes more efficient distributed inference methods. It also introduces data partitioning strategies to minimize network shuffling. In addition, it describes a method for optimizing the incremental reasoning process through data selection and determining the rule order. In order to evaluate the proposed methods, the experiments were conducted using WiseKB consisting of 200 million triples with 83 user defined rules and the overall reasoning task was completed in 32.7 minutes. Also, the experiment results using LUBM bench datasets showed that our approach could perform reasoning twice as fast as MapReduce based reasoning systems.

As the big data technologies advance, there is an increasing interest in systematic methodologies for data-based policy determination especially in the public health area. This study proposes a method to develop an issue detection model through the collaboration with domain experts in order to intelligently detect major socio-national issues on infectious diseases based on data. At first, the factors influencing the 'domestic inflow of foreign infectious diseases' are determined and variables representing the factors are set. Thereafter, by using system dynamics methods, the causal analysis is made to find causal map indicating main influential factors. In this process, an empirical modeling is conducted through collaboration between data analysts and experts in the infectious disease domain. The proposed issue detection approach based on domain knowledges will make it possible to make a decision on policies more efficiently if the detection system is capable of continuos monitoring of the related issues.

Recently, large-scale streaming sensor data have emerged due to explosive supply of smart phones, diffusion of IoT and Cloud computing technology, and generalization of IoT devices. Also, researches on combination of semantic web technology are being actively pushed forward by increasing of requirements for creating new value of data through data sharing and mash-up in large-scale environments. However, we are faced with big issues due to large-scale and streaming data in the inference field for creating a new knowledge. For this reason, we propose the RDFS rule based parallel reasoning scheme to service by processing large-scale streaming sensor data with the semantic web technology. In the proposed scheme, we run in parallel each job of Rete network algorithm, the existing rule inference algorithm and sharing data using the HBase, a hadoop database, as a public storage. To achieve this, we implement our system and evaluate performance through the AWS data of the weather center as large-scale streaming sensor data.

Ratooning ability is one of the major different traits from perennial to cultivated rice and annual type. We developed a set of 126 introgression lines derived from a cross between Hwayeong and W1944 (O. rufipogon) to gain an insight into the genetic factors underlying differences between common wild rice and cultivated rice. One IL, CR6 among the 126 ILs of $BC_3F_4$ showed a significant difference in rationing ability compared with Hwayeong. To further characterize the rationing ability, CR6 was selected and crossed to Hwayeong to produce three secondary populations, $BC_4F_2$, $BC_4F_3$ and $BC_5F_2$. In the Hwayeong background, the W1944 allele was associated with an increase in rationing ability. QTL analysis showed that the qRAT5 for rationing ability was linked to RM194 ($R^2$=6.6%, 19.6%, and 44.5% in the $BC_4F_2$, $BC_5F_2$, and $BC_5F_3$, respectively). The putative qRAT5 was also tightly linked to QTLs for spikelets per panicle and grain weight indicating that this region harbors a QTL cluster related to domestication. To our knowledge, this is the first report to map the major QTL for ratooning ability in rice. The SSR markers linked to qRAT5 would be useful in marker-assisted selection for breeding lines with enhanced ratooning ability.

Most of earthquake-induced geotechnical hazards have been caused by the site effects relating to the amplification of ground motion, which are strongly influenced by the local geologic conditions such as soil thickness or bedrock depth and soil stiffness. In this study, an integrated GIS-based information system for geotechnical data, called geotechnical information system (GTIS), was constructed to establish a regional counterplan against earthquake-induced hazards at an urban area, Daejeon, which is represented as a hub of research and development in Korea. To build the GTIS for the area of interesting, pre-existing geotechnical data collections were performed across the extended area including the study area and a walk-over site survey was additionally carried out to acquire surface geo-knowledge data. For practical application of the GTIS used to estimate the site effects at the area of interesting, seismic microzoning map of the characteristic site period was created and presented as regional synthetic strategy for earthquake-induced hazards prediction. In addition, seismic zonation for site classification according to the spatial distribution of the site period was also performed to determine the site amplification coefficients for seismic design and seismic performance evaluation at any site in the study area. Based on the case study on seismic zonations at Daejeon, it was verified that the GIS-based GTIS was very useful for the regional prediction of seismic hazards and also the decision support for seismic hazard mitigation.

Maturity models allow organizations to assess and compare their own practices against best practices or those employed by competitors, with the intention to map out a structured path to improvement. This research explores the aspects of the Maturity Models that are relevant to distinguish them from one to another. The different Project Management maturity models for define maturity differently and measure different things to determine maturity. Because of this, organizations should give careful consideration to select appropriate maturity model. The main reason behind this research lies on the modification to the existing Organizational Project Management Maturity Model (OPM3) by adding four knowledge areas, dedicated to construction industry as best practices. These are Safety, Environment, Financial and Claim Management. This Model contains (Yes/No) questions; all of these questions must be answered before the user reviews the results that describe the overall maturity and areas of strength and weakness of an organization. The research presents the implementation of the proposed Model Construction Enterprises Maturity Model (CEM2). All the components of the developed Model have been implemented in Microsoft Access. CEM2 helps Construction Enterprises to assess their Maturity Level and know Areas of Weaknesses for future improvement. The easy to use Yes/No user interfaces help enterprises' employees to assess the maturity level of their enterprises. The Model maintains users' responses in its database; as such, many employees from different enterprise divisions can be involved during assessment phase in several sessions.

Demands for a system which enable users to retrieve any kind of geographic and regional information over the Web have been increasing. However, in order to obtain geographic or regional information over the web, users still need to search web pages related to region by inputting keywords and to arrange the searched results with map. We can solve that problem by using the fact that most of geographic and regional information contain geographic keywords related to location. In this paper, we propose a system to retrieve geographic and regional information efficiently. For the purpose, we present a conceptual model based on three layers of "Real-World", "Knowledge", and "Applications", from the web space and construct the above link process. These layers are connected to each other and enable users to navigation information over the linkage. Especially, users can obtain various correlated information about geographic information and properties.

Background: DNA repair is one of the crucial defense mechanism against mutagenic exposure. Inherited SNPs of DNA repair genes may contribute to variation in DNA repair capacity and susceptibility to cancer. Due to the presence of these variants, inter-individual and ethnic differences in DNA repair capacity have been established in various populations. India harbors enormous genetic and cultural diversity. Materials and Methods: In the present study we aimed to determine the genotypes and allele frequencies of XRCC1 Arg399Gln (rs25487), XRCC3 Thr241Met (rs861539), XPD Lys751Gln (rs13181), and OGG1 Ser326Cys (rs1052133) gene polymorphisms in 186 healthy individuals residing in the Hyderabad region of India and to compare them with HapMap and other populations. Results and Conclusions: The genotype and allele frequency distribution at the four DNA repair gene loci among Hyderabad population of India revealed a characteristic pattern. Comparison of these gene polymorphisms with other populations revealed a distinctiveness of Hyderabad population from the Deccan region of India. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of such DNA repair gene polymorphisms in the Deccan Indian population.
