최근 스마트 폰의 발전으로 위치 정보의 활용도가 높아지고 있다. 기존에 측위 시스템은 GPS를 이용한 위치 측위를 하였다. 하지만 실내는 GPS 신호를 사용할 수 없으며, GPS 사용할 경우 위치 부정확의 문제점이 발생된다. 실내에서의 측위 문제를 해결하기 위하여 실내를 기반으로 하는 위치 측위 기법이 연구되었다. 실내를 기반으로 하는 많은 측위 기법으로는 RFID, UWB, WLAN 등의 다양한 기법이 존재한다. 하지만 WLAN를 이용한 위치 측위기법이 실생활에 활용하기 가장 접합하다. WLAN을 이용한 실내 측위 기법은 크게 2가지로 나뉘는데 첫째는 삼각 측량 기법이고, 둘째는 핑거프린트 기법이다. 그중 핑거 프린트 기법이 정확도가 높기 때문에 많이 쓰인다. 하지만 핑거 프린트 기법을 사용하기 위해서 구축하는 시간이나 구축을 위한 자원 소모가 많은 단점이 있다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위한 실내 환경에서 WLAN 기반의 가상의 핑거 프린트 구축 기법을 제안한다. 제안된 기법은 기존의 실내 환경을 셀 환경으로 구분하였으며, 각각의 셀 안의 핑거 프린트 위치 점을 가상의 그리드 맵으로 나타내었다. 그리고 가상의 위치점에 예측된 가상의 시그널 값을 넣어줌으로써 빠르게 핑거프린트 시스템을 구축한다. 또한 이렇게 구축된 시그널 값들은 실측위 값과는 다른 값을 가질수 있기 때문에 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위한 Splite-tree를 이용한 보정 기법을 제안한다. 보정 기법을 통하여 짧은 시간 동안 정확도가 향상됨을 보인다.

In this paper, we analyze the location accuracy of real-time locating systems (RTLSs) in multipath environments in which the RTLSs comply with the ISO/IEC 24730-2 international standard. To analyze the location error of RTLS in multipath environments, we consider a direct path and indirect path, in which time and phase are delayed, and also white Gaussian noise is added. The location error depends strongly on both the noise level and phase difference under a low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) regime, but only on the noise level under a high SNR regime. The phase difference effect can be minimized by matching it to the time delay difference at a ratio of 180 degrees per 1 chip time delay (Tc). At a relatively high SNR of 10 dB, a location error of less than 3 m is expected at any phase and time delay value of an indirect signal. At a low SNR regime, the location error range increases to 8.1 m at a 0.5 Tc, and to 7.3 m at a 1.5 Tc. However, if the correlation energy is accumulated for an 8-bit period, the location error can be reduced to 3.9 m and 2.5 m, respectively.

본 논문에서는 모바일 로봇이 주어진 환경에서 물건 객체를 찾기 위해 RFID(Radio Frequency IDentification) 태그의 위치를 추정할 수 있는 지능형 시스템을 설계하고 구현하였다. 개발된 지능형 시스템은 인공 신경망 시스템으로 RSSI(Received Signal Strength Indication)값을 입력으로 하고 절대 위치 좌표 값을 목표 값으로 하는 학습 시스템이다. 위치 추정을 위하여 수동형 RFID를 사용하였으며 능동형으로의 확장도 고려하였다. 실내에서 위치 추정을 위한 환경을 구축하여 사용될 수 있도록 시스템을 설계하였다. 또한 설계된 시스템을 소프트웨어 개발을 하였고, 실험을 통해 테스트베드 상에서 시스템 학습과 관련된 결과를 보여준다. 실제 현장과 유사한 환경에서 학습데이터 생성에서부터 실시간 위치 추정과 관련된 다양한 실험 결과를 보여준다. 실험 결과를 통해 모바일 로봇이 실내에서 원하는 객체를 쉽게 찾을 수 있음을 확인하였다.

We present a novel method for eye location by means of a two-level classifier scheme. Locating the eye by machine-inspection of an image or video is an important problem for Computer Vision and is of particular value to applications in biomedical imaging. Our method aims to overcome the significant challenge of an eye-location that is able to maintain high accuracy by disregarding highly variable changes in the environment. A first level of computational analysis processes this image context. This is followed by object detection by means of a two-class discrimination classifier(second algorithmic level).We have tested our eye location system using FERET and BioID database. We compare the performance of two-level classifier with that of non-level classifier, and found it's better performance.

A special case of the probabilistic multi-location problem is studied in a two-echelon logistic system for deteriorating items. The objective is to determine the location of the minimum number of supply centers among a discrete set of location sites of supply centers, such that the probability each retailer being covered by some supply center is not less than a specified value. A logistic cost is introduced as performance measure of the system, and leads us to analyze the impact of deterioration rate on the location problem. The results obtained from numerical examples are discussed, which provides effective guidelines that can be used for the logistic managerial decisions.

Location-based services are a recent concept that integrates a mobile device's location with other information in order to provide added value to a user. Although Location-based Services provide users with comfortable information, it is a complex task to manage and share heterogeneous and numerous data in decentralized environments. In this paper, we propose the Semantic LBS Model as one of the solution to resolve the problem. The Semantic LBS Model is a LBS middleware model that includes an ontology-based data model for LBS POI information and its processing mechanism based on Semantic Web technologies. Our model enables POI information to be described and retrieved over various domain-specific ontologies based on our proposed POIDL ontology. This mechanism provide rich expressiveness, interoperability, flexibility in describing and using information about POls, and it can enhance POI retrieval services.

The objective of this study is to suggest DARE (Decision Alternative Ratio Evaluation) Method, which is usually using in VE(Value Engineering), as one of the evaluating alternatives techniques, especially deciding location. The process of solving location problem consists of 4 stages which are Data gathering and Confirming check list, Design of evaluating methodology, Evaluating, and Conclusion. In second stage which is the most important one among those, DARE method is adopted to solve location problem as a objective and scientific technique. The members who are participated workshop extremely agree to whole procedure of methodology and also their own conclusion through Workshop. This case study shows DARE method fits with select optimal location.

Purpose In 2016, the market size of mobile(m-) shopping goes beyeond more than half of a total of online shopping. People use smartphones as the main device for m-commerce. Under the circmustances, this study attempts to address why people prefer to use smartphone-based m-commerce. In other words, it is necessary to understand the main value that smartphone-based m-commerce creates. Drawing on the studies of consumption value, this study focuses on utilitarian value in predicting customers' continuance intention in the context of smartphone-based m-commerce, recognizing that utilitarian value is a key extrinsic motivation in the goal-oriented, performance-oriented shopping contexts. Furthermore, this study identifies factors affecting customers' utilitarian value from the perspective of benefits and costs, following the notion that it represents the result of evaluating a trade-off of benefits and costs caused by smartphone-based m commerce. More specifically, in this study, ubiquitous service, location-based service (LBS), transaction speed, and price utility belong to the benefit dimension, whereas technology anxiety and cognitive effort belong to the cost dimension. Design/methodology/approach To test the proposed hypotheses, the study conducted partial least squares (PLS) analysis with a total of 294 data collected on users with experience in smartphone-based m-commerce. Findings The results show that first, utilitarian value is increased by the benefits, such as ubiquitous service, transaction speed, and price utility. However, LBS has no direct effect on utilitarian value. Second, the noteworthy finding is that ubiquitous service and LBS greatly increase transaction speed. Third, technology anxiety and cognitive effort considered as the cost dimension are negatively associated with utilitarian value but their impacts on it are non-significant. Finally, the results support the argument that utilitarian value is a determinant of continuance intention. Overall, the findings imply that utilitarian value greatly depends on the peception on benefits rather than the aspect of cost in smartphone-based m-commerce. Overall, the findings offer new insight into the studies of m-commerce by considering and verifying the impacts of its benefits and costs simultaneously.

The aim of this study is to investigate the pH threshold value for the corrosion of steel reinforcement in concrete. A method was designed to attain the pH value of the pore solution on the location of the steel in concrete. Then the pH values of the pore solution on the location of steel in concrete were changed by exposing the samples to the environment (CO25%, RH 40%) to accelerate carbonation with different periods. Based on this, the pH threshold value for the corrosion of steel reinforcement had been examined by the methods of half-cell potential and electrochemical impedance spectra (EIS). The results have indicated that the pH threshold value for the initial corrosion of steel reinforcement in concrete was 11.21. However, in the carbonated concrete, agreement among whether steel corrosion was initiatory determined by the detection methods mentioned above could be found.
