Preprocessing is indispensable to eliminate local granularities prior to region growing. In this paper, we examined the effects of preprocessing in S&M region growing technique. Experimental results show that a modified Nagao filter removes the local granularities well and compensates for the defects of Nagao filter.

The region activation have attracted much attention of politician, government, scholar, local residents and so on, but it is very difficult and delicate. The policy of Inje-Gun government are jump into the lucrative tourism, the strong agriculture, the comfortable welfare and the attentive administration. But the present status is very poor. Economic self-supporting index is only 19%. The policy will achieve by increase of economic self-supporting. I am going to propose some item for region activation in Inje-Gun. The items are medicinal garden construction, green tourism, local festival, residents increase and so on.

Local color transfer is the process of assigning a given color to a local region in a target image. The local region that contains the given color has to be segmented. Conventionally, the segmentation of the corresponding local region in a target image is based on the color distance. The region which is the closest in color distance is separated. However, since the close range of color distance separating a given color from target image is ambiguous and uncertain, color distortion is often generated around a separated local region. Therefore, this paper addresses the problem of segmentation in a local color transfer. To prevent color distortion, a modified color influence map is proposed with color categories. First, the target image is roughly segmented using a color category map, which groups similar colors in color space. It restricts the color transfer to a specific color category according to a given color. Second, modified color influence map assigning different weight to lightness and chroma, respectively, is used instead of Euclidian color distance. Then, by combining a modified color influence map and color category map filtered with anisotropic diffusion, a local region that contains a given color can be segmented more strictly than conventional method.

All kinds of environmental problems are related to each local and geographical environment. For this reason, it is necessary for schools in each region to provide environmental education which suits the geographical character of their particular region. In order to provide solutions to the environmental problems of each school's geographic region, the goal of this research is as follows: 1. We can make students realize the relationship between the human race and the environment by teaching according to the environmental conditions in each local area. 2. By teaching students about the problems in their own local environment, we can increase their concern about the state of their local surroundings. 3. When teaching about the environment, it is useful to use educational material which suits the character of each local region. 4. Students' interest in environmental preservation can be aroused through extracurricular environmental activities. The ares concerned are Chonnam and Kwangju City, which are divided into urban, industrial, rural, coastal, and mountainous areas. The conclusion about considering environmental education in environmental school social studies is as follows: 1. Kwangju and Chonnam should be divided into five sections, each with similar geographical environments. This will be an improvement over the old uniform approach to environmental studies in which all regions were treated as being the same each region will now receive special attention. 2. It is necessary to maximize the efficient use of the Environmental Education Building. When Media, environmental data and special materials for environmental education are used effectively, teachers can lead class effectively and students will be more interested in the class. 3. We can detect the cause of pollution, increase interest in the environment and easily solve environmental problems by collecting and displaying environmental educational materials. 4. An environmental education corner could boost students' interest in environmental problems and could act as a kind of bridge between theoretical and practical education. 5. Media and environmental data must be specialized according to the geographic character of each region. In this way, we can expect to improve the quality of environmental education over the simplistic environmental education of previous years. 6. Students will become interested in the problems of the region in which they live through social studies, and primarily through the environmental curriculum. 7. We can prevent learning deficiencies by making a consistent teaching plan. The teaching and learning methods will be improved and the teachers will be proud of what they teach. 8. The purpose of the Education Procedure Content Analysis is to make teaching and learning concise and easy by systematizing environmental and related subjects. This can be done by adding an environmental unit to the geographic section of social studies. 9. Citizens' interest in their own residential environment can be increased through action by sustaining environmental preservation movements to local region people.

This study reviewed theories on entrepreneurial local governance and inquired the changing regional policy in Chonnam region. The region became exposure as the direct investment unit of global capital by globalization of capital, the inter-regional competition and the relative reduction of the role and function of nation state. Therefore local government have the relative autonomy and the region is effected as the chosen space by capital according to the free movement of capital. It has been argued that there has been a reorientation of urban governance away from the local provision of welfare and services to a more outward-orientated stance designed to foster and encourage local growth and economic development. These profound changes in the way that cities operate have seen the public sector taking over characteristics once distinctive to the private sector leading many commentators to term such modes of governance as entrepreneurial. In Chonnam region, many local governments are introducing entrepreneurial policies for regional development. It appears as place marketing strategy to attract capital and tourists. This strategy is very important to used identity or culture of region in order to make the attractive region. The entrepreneurial characteristics and strategies appear as image unification of region, commodity development of natural or cultural resource, event and business projects. From this point of view, the entrepreneurial policy that is based upon regional growth can cause the problem of social justice like distributional distortion and inequality.

Using fluorescence polarization of 12-(9-anthroyloxy)stearic acid (12-AS) and 2-(9-anthroyloxy)stearic acid (2-AS), we evaluated the differential effects of local anesthetics on differential rotational rate between the surface (in carbon number 2 and its surroundings including the head group) and the hydrocarbon interior (in carbon number 12 and its surroundings) of the outer monolayer of the total lipid fraction liposome extracted from synaptosomal plasma membrane vesicles. The anisotropy (r) values for the hydrocarbon interior and the surface region of the liposome outer monolayer were $0.078{\pm}0.001$ and $0.114{\pm}0.001,$ respectively. This means that the rate of rotational mobility in the hydrocarbon interior is faster than that of the surface region. In a dose-dependent manner, the local anesthetics decreased the anisotropy of 12-AS in the hydrocarbon interior of the liposome outer monolayer but increased the anisotropy of 2-AS in the surface region of the monolayer. These results indicate that local anesthetics have significant disordering effects on the hydrocarbon interior but have significant ordering effects on the surface region of the liposome outer monolayer.

자궁경부진 세포인식 시스템에 있어서 가장 중요한 것이 영상처리를 이용하여 세포핵과 세포질을 추출하여 세포의 형태적인 정보를 알아내는 과정이다. 기존의 전역 thresholding 기법이나 region growing의 경우는 pap smear 검사를 통해 얻어진 세포 영상을 분할할 수 있는 region growing 기법을 제안한다. 제안된 region growing 기법은 초기에 seed를 검출할 때 local threshold growing 기법을 제안한다. 제안된 region growing 기법은 초기에 seed를 검출할 때 local threshold 개념을 도입하여 seed의 검출을 고르게 하고, 2가지 확장 조건을 사용하여 영역을 확장한다. 첫 번째 확장 조건은 비정상 세포나 artifact가 많아서 어둡게 나타나는 영상이나 세포질과 배경의 경계가 뚜렷하지 않아서 세포질의 구별이 어려운 영상의 영역 분할이 가능하도록 그 특성을 반영하고, 두 번째 조건은 세포가 흡수하는 빛의 양이 일정하다는 가정으로 영상에서의 지역 특성(gray level, color 등을 반영한다. 제안된 기법은 정상세포 영상뿐만 아니라 비정상 세포 영상에 대하여 over-segment나 under-segment하는 경우를 줄여서 영역 분할에 좋은 결과를 보인다.

On the framework of Tolman spacetime model, the caustics around a local perturbed region in redshift is due to the local expansion rate induced by a local density inhomogeneity in real space. We have compared the caustics in redshift space, which are analytically obtained, with the observed redshift-distance patterns of galaxies which are belonging to Coma and Perseus clusters. For the Abell density distribution model and polytropic density profiles which are well-fitting the optical and X-ray observations, respectively, the size of caustics which is defined by "turnaround radius" of a local density perturbed region should give constraints on the sizes and masses of rich clusters and give also a clue to understand the state of hot X-ray emitting gas.

The purpose of this research is to develop a decision-making model for the calculation of the National Disaster Management System's standard prevention workforce quota. The final purpose of such model is to support in arranging a rationally sized prevention workforce for local authorities by providing information about its calculation in order to support an effective and efficient disaster management administration. In other words, it is to establish and develop a model that calculates the standard disaster prevention workforce quota for basic local governments in order to arrange realistically required prevention workforce. In calculating Korea's prevention workforce, it was found that the prevention investment expenses, number of prevention facilities, frequency of flood damage, number of disaster victims, prevention density, and national disaster recovery costs have positive influence on the dependent variable when the standard prevention workforce was set as the dependent variable. The model based on the regression analysis-which consists of dependent and independent variables-was classified into inland mountainous region, East coast region, Southwest coastal plain region to reflect regional characteristics for the calculation of the prevention workforce. We anticipate that the decision-making model for the standard prevention workforce quota will aid in arranging an objective and essential prevention workforce for Korea's basic local authorities.

The purpose of this study was to know about the influence of consumers' knowledge level(expert vs novice) on their behavioral intentions by the storytelling about local foods. Reviewing previous storytelling studies related to local foods containing each region's traditional food culture in Korea, it can identify that most studies focused on the necessity of storytelling, the discovery of story materials, the importance of storytelling for food tour. Therefore, this study tried to know about how the storytelling about local foods influenced on the consumers' behavioral intentions, and set the attributes of storytelling and the consumers' local food-purchasing region as adjustable variances. Finally, in case that the consumers' knowledge level was low and their food-purchasing regions were not same, this study suggested the attributes of most preferred storytelling by consumers. By doing so, this study tried to discover the storytelling skills of local foods representing each region or to suggest a method to increase the cultural values of each local food in case of creating a story about the local food.
