Japan and Korea have developed forest therapy policies, but their policies differ in several respects. First, Forest therapy projects are managed by local governments and residents in Japan, while they are operated by Korea Forest Service. Second, Japan adopts the certification system of forest therapy areas, emphasizes medical and scientific evidences, maintains the quality of forest therapy by inducing competitive participation of local governments and residents, and cultivates forest therapists through Forest Therapy Society. In contrast, Korea has adopted the licence system, improved institutional framework, and cultivated therapists, but it is at early stage. Third, Japanese forest therapy policy aims at regional development of the mountain villages, overlapping with other local policies. However, in Korea, the primary policy goal is to expand forest services and thereby having its own policy framework and being promoted strongly.

We suggest that HSV Color Space may be used to detect a vehicle detecting system at nighttime. It is essential that a licence plate should be extracted when a vehicle is under surveillance. To do so, a licence plate may be enlarged to certain size after the aimed vehicle is taken picture from a distance by using Pan-Tilt-Zoom Camera. Either Mean-Shift or Optical Flow Algorithm is generally used for the purpose of a vehicle detection and trace, even though those algorithms have tendency to have difficulty in detection and trace a vehicle at night. By utilizing the fact that a headlight or taillight of a vehicle stands out when an input image is converted in to HSV Color Space, we are able to achieve improvement on those algorithms for the vehicle detection and trace. In this paper, we have shown that at night, the suggested method is efficient enough to detect a vehicle 93.9% from the front and 97.7% from the back.

In the purpose of suggesting the necessity and proper method of providing the standard reference material for acquiring the aircraft pilot license, this study provides the FAA and ROKAF case study, and positively analyzes the materials of 178 pilots and student pilots who acquired the aircraft pilot license. The result of case study shows that compared to the case of Korea which the restriction on the standard reference material providing exists, the FAA(Federal Aviation Administration) and ROKAF are currently providing the standard reference material. Additionally, the result of positive analysis indicates the fact that the necessity of standard reference material providing is well recognized and its importance also found to be remarkably high. These results represent that the standard reference material providing is necessary for training competent aircraft pilots. Also, this will mitigate the current shortage of aircraft pilots due to the rapid growth of air transportation industry, and this will play an important role in preventing diverse aircraft-related accidents.

Dopamine agonists are commonly used in the medical treatment of prolactinomas. Bromocriptine has been the most widely used ergot derivative for two decades. Its oral administration, at a daily dose of $2.5{\sim}7.5mg$, restored normal gonadal function and normoprolactinemia in about 80% of patients. Nevertheless, a subset of patients could not achieve normal prolactin levels or resume normal gonadal function despite $15{\sim}30mg$/day bromocriptine for at least 6 months. Subsequently, these prolactinomas were consedered to be resistant to bromocriptine. The percentage of bromocriptine - resistant prolactinoma patients reported in the literature varies between 5 and 17% according to the series. Patients with bromocriptine resistance or bromocriptine intolerance have, however, been treated with other dopamine agonists, such as lysuride, pergolide, cabergoline, or quinagolide. Until cabergoline recently gained a product licence in the UK, there was no alternative dopamine agonist with a licence for this purpose. Quinagolide (CV $205{\sim}502$, Norprolac, Sandoz) is a nonergot dopamine agonist with improved selectivity for the D2 receptor, designed to retain the active pharmacophore of bromocriptine without the ergot moiety that might be responsible for side - effects. We have experienced a case of bromocriptine resistant hyperprolactinemia which was reponsive to pergolide. So we report this case with a brief review of literatures.

In the modern world, where the number of people moving from country to country is sharply increasing, domestic and international driver's licenses are easily fabricated or forged, and distinguishing if a driver's license is legitimate or not is often a difficult task. Furthermore, this would require different countries to mutually share and administer the driving records of individuals, making it a much more complex task (Added to it is the complicated matter of countries having to mutually share and administer the driving records of individuals.) However, the authenticity and security of a driver's license has become the first priority since driver's licenses are also used as identification cards in most countries, thus requiring measures to prevent inappropriate uses arising from theft and embezzlement. In this paper, we propose the mutual authentication mechanism which, can provide enhanced security and efficient operation that is administration of personal information contained within ISO Compliant Driving licence(IDL).

This paper presents how to recognize the new-type vehicle license plate using multi-link recognizer after extract the features from characters. In order to assist this task, this paper proposed FE-MCBP to recognize each character that got through image preprocess, extract range of vehicle license plate and extract process of each character. FE-MCBP is the recognizer based on the features of the character, The recognizer is employed to identify the new-type vehicle licence plates which have both the hangul and the arabic numeral characters. And its recognition rate is improved 9.7 percent than the back propagation recognizer before. Also it makes use of extract of linear component and region coordinate generation technology to normalize a image of the tilted vehicle license plate. The recognition system of the new-type vehicle license plate make possible recognize a image of the tilted vehicle license plate when using this system. Also, this system can recognize the tilted or imperfect vehicle licence plates.

In this paper, we propose a novel method to extract an area of car licence plate and codes of vehicle number from a photographed car image using features on vertical edges and a new Fuzzy neural network algorithm to recognize extracted codes. Prewitt mask is used in searching for vertical edges for detection of an area of vehicle number plate and feature information of vehicle number palate is used to eliminate image noises and extract the plate area and individual codes of vehicle number. Finally, for recognition of extracted codes, we use the proposed Fuzzy neural network algorithm, in which FCM is used as the learning structure between input and middle layers and Max_Min neural network is used as the learning structure within inhibition and output layers. Through a variety of experiments using real 150 images of vehicle, we showed that the proposed method is more efficient than others.

Most recognition methods of car licence plate have difficulties concerning plate recognition rates and system stability in that restricted car images are used and good image capture environment is required. To overcome these difficulties, I proposed a new recognition method of car licence plates, in which both intensity variation and color information are used. For a captured car image, multiple candidate plate-bands are extracted based on the number of intensity variation. To have an equal performance on abnormally dark and bright Images. plate lightness is calculated and adjusted based on the brightness of plate background. Candidate plate regions are extracted using contour following on plate color pixels in oath plate band. A candidate region is decided as a real plate region after extracting character regions and then recognizing them. I recognize characters using template matching since total number of possible characters is small and they art machine printed. To show the efficiency of the proposed method, I tested it on 200 car images and found that the method shows good performance.
