Lucy Snowe, the heroine and narrator of Charlotte Brontë's Villette, has oftentimes been studied in terms of her silence. However, the critics' approach to Lucy's silence has been mostly negative as her silence has often been interpreted as an illustration of her sense of absence, powerlessness, unreliability, or mental deprivation. Lucy's silence, however, is complex in nature as the functions and meanings of her silence vary depending on when, why, and how silence is performed. This article particularly looks into the moments in which Lucy's silence generates multifarious meanings and resonances depending on the contexts in and the purpose for which it is exercised, such as a sense of wholeness, marginality, power and individuality. First of all, Lucy's silence about herself during the recount of her childhood days at Bretton implies the feeling of entirety and peacefulness where the identification of the "I" becomes unnecessary. Second, Lucy's silence in relation to Paulina at Bretton denotes her social marginality and powerlessness. Third, as an older self/narrator, Lucy chooses to be silent in order to exert power over the readers. And lastly, Lucy's conscious refusal to tell the readers what she already knows also serves to reveal her sense of individuality. Through the instances of Lucy Snowe's silence in Bronte's Villette, I demonstrate the possibility to reveal various aspects of one's self through silence.

본 논문에서는 deconvolution 알고리즘 중에 하나인 Richardson-Lucy deconvolution 의 개선된 알고리즘을 제시한다. Richardson-Lucy deconvolution 의 단점인 반복횟수가 증가할수록 노이즈도 같이 증폭되는 현상을 소개하고 이를 개선하기 위해 기존 알고리즘에 전, 후처리 필터를 이용하여 노이즈 증폭을 억제한다. 또한 다른 노이즈 증폭을 억제하는 알고리즘과 제안된 알고리즘의 비교를 통해서 제안된 알고리즘의 성능을 보여준다.

In this paper, restoration methods were applied to restore analog medicine images with an aged image added and then blurred by noises. To restore the aged image blurred by the blurring function and added by noises, it was applied to the restoration methods which are inverse filtering and wiener filtering which are linear restoration techniques and Lucy-Richardson's algorithm which is nonlinear restoration technique. Moreover, ROC curve, a subjective evaluation method, was applied to evaluate the image quality of the restoration image. The wiener filtering using the ratio of constants acquired better image than the inverse filtering, but both of them couldn't improve ability to make a diagnosis. The restoration image applied to Lucy-Richardson algorithm was the best performance of the applied techniques and its sensitivity and specitivity were improved by 15[%] as much performance as the original aged image.

본 논문에서는 Non-blind 디컨벌루션 알고리듬 중 하나인 Richardson-Lucy(RL) 디컨벌루션을 영상 분할을 통해 성능을 향상시킨 알고리듬을 제안한다. RL 디컨벌루션은 영상의 크기가 커질수록 연산 양이 크게 증가한다. 따라서 크기가 큰 영상의 RL 디컨벌루션은 계산에 많은 시간을 필요로 한다. 이를 개선하기 위하여 영상을 적절한 크기로 분할하여 각각 RL 디컨벌루션을 계산한다. 또한 분할 시 생기는 왜곡을 줄이기 위해 리플 제거를 위한 알고리듬을 추가한다. 이를 통해 기존의 알고리듬보다 연산 양을 줄여 빠른 RL 디컨벌루션이 가능하도록 개선한다.

In Jamaica Kincaid's novel Lucy, the narrator grows up with the burden of colonial legacies embedded with Englands' imperial disciplinary projects, its language, educational institutions, discourses. Colonial education interpellates the narrator into a colonial subject through its multiple ideological discourses and systems. Teaching the literature of England is the most insidious form of the Empire's disciplinary colonial projects, more powerful than military enforcement: Its mode of operation is creating phantasy and instigating and planting desire for such phantasy. As Homi Bhabha aptly theorizes as colonial mimicry and ambivalence, the narrator as colonial subject grows up split and confused as an ambivalent subject, simultaneously mimicking and desiring for the phantasized England as real, while resisting and criticizing such up-bringing and mimetic desire. This paper explores Kincaid's rhetorical strategy of employing Wordsworth's poem, "I Wandered as a Lonely Cloud," especially her use of the flower "daffodil." Employing the concept of "daffodil gap" suggested by postcolonial critics, this paper closely examines two episodes involving the flower daffodil in the novel, one in a colonial classroom and the other in a garden in a new world and suggests that Kincaid accomplishes intertextual critique of colonial education and imperial projects.

This paper aims at studying about spatial structures and formative characteristics of Lucy Orta's fashion design. Her works utilizes the thought related on the architectural space that has been revealed sharp change of the paradigm since the late of 20th century. Lucy Orta against individualism of the urban life, and manufactures portable and moving housing and multi-functional fashion that is paved with individual rest unit and give a sense of security through simple combination among the units. Besides, she has development multiple portable clothing and equipments for the rescuethrough exploiting pioneering high technology. The results of this study can be summarized as the following: 1) refuge habitant creates individual space for physical and mental protection from the urban surrounding, 2) nomadic dwelling shows multi-functional fashion space fit for digital nomads' life style aims at continuous movement, 3) connective nexus and urban life guard are comprise of detachable individual unit in public space for remaking of the bonds, affinity, and relationship, and the complex of rescue clothing and equipments for meeting a challenge of the threat about human existence from uncertain environmental change in the future.
