In this paper, we propose a new digital audio watermarking scheme In the cepstrum domain. We insert a digital watermark signal Into the cepstral components of the audio signal using a technique analogous to spread spectrum Communications, hiding a narrow band signal in a wade band channel. In our proposed method, we use pseudo-random sequences to watermark the audio signal. The watermark Is then weighted in the cepstrum domain according to the distribution of cepstral coefficients and the frequency masking characteristics of the human auditory system. The proposed watermark embedding scheme minimizes audibility of the watermark signal. and the embedded watermark is robust to mu1tip1e watermarks, MPEG audio ceding and additive noose.

A method to determine quinine in aqueous solution by chemiluminescence method using a stopped flow system has been studied. The method is based on the increased chemiluminescence intensity with the addition of quinine to a solution of lucigenin and hydrogen peroxide. The effects of KOH concentration, flow rate of reagents, $H_{2}O_{2}$ concentration used for the masking of quinine on the chemiluminescence intensity have been investigated. The calibration curve for quinine was linear over the range from $1.0{\times}10^{-7}$ M to $1.0{\times}10^{-3}$ M, coefficient of correlation was 0.993 and the detection limit was $3.0{\times}10^{-8}$ M under the optimal experimental conditions of 1.0 M, 1.5 M, 3.0 mL/min for the concentration of $H_{2}O_{2}$, KOH and flow rate of reagents, respectively.

토지피복은 지표면의 물리적 상태 및 사용 용도에 따른 특성을 나타내는 기본적인 정보로 농업, 환경, 재해, 수자원 등 다양한 분야에서 이용되고 있다. 식생활동으로 인해 생기는 증산과 토양에서 일어나는 증발을 증발산이라 통칭하며, 이의 정확한 산정은 수리, 수문학적 유역 분석에 중요하다. 정확한 증발산의 산정을 위해서는 기압, 온도 등 기상 인자의 역할이 중요하지만 토지피복 특성 역시 증발산에 큰 영향을 주므로 중요한 요소 중 하나이다. 이는 인간의 활동에 의해 점차적으로 빠르게 변화하는 추세이므로 인공위성 영상을 이용하여 효율적인 정보의 취합 및 관리가 필수적이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 Landsat 5 TM(Thematic Mapper) 영상을 기반으로 무감독 분류법을 이용하여 ISODATA Training과 Masking기법을 사용하여 한강 유역의 토지피복도를 산정하였다. 본 연구에서는 연구 대상 지역의 영상을 사용하였고, 토지의 분류는 수역, 시가, 나지, 습지, 초지, 산림, 농지의 7가지로 분류하였다. 그 결과 우리나라의 대다수를 이루는 수역, 시가, 산림, 농지에 대한 높은 정확도를 갖는 토지피복도를 얻을 수 있었으며, 이는 군사경계 외부의 지역도 포함된 결과이다. 단, 나지와 습지, 초지 부분의 정확도는 비교적 떨어지나, 우리나라의 토지특성상 많은 비율을 차지하고 있지 않으므로 신뢰할 만한 결과라 할 수 있겠다. 이 결과와 외부 자료를 이용하여 보다 향상된 토지피복도를 만들 수 있을 것이다. 이를 토대로 군사지역 등 접근이 어려운 지역의 토지피복 현황을 파악하여 정확한 증발산 산정에 도움이 되고자 한다.

This paper is second part on the auditory thresholds and fish behaviors to the underwater sounds for luring of target species at the set-net in the coast of Cheju. In order to obtain the critical ratio of yellow tails(Seriola quinqueradiata) and the emission level of underwater sound for luring of them, we make experiments to measure the auditory threshold of them using conditioning with electric shock. In state that the white noise with 10dB higher sound pressure level than ambient noise is emitted, the auditory thresholds of yellow tails are measured with 100~116.5dB and they are higher than those in state of no emission of white noise by the masking effects of it. Although sound pressure level of background noise go down, the auditory thresholds go up with frequency above than 300Hz.The critical ratio of yellow-tails in frequency of 80Hz, 100Hz, 200Hz, 500Hz, 800Hz are 46dB, 40dB, 50dB, 52dB, 60dB, 70dB respectively. The sound pressure level of which the signal sound is recognized by yellow tails under the ambient noise is above 100dB and the critical ratio of them is above 40dB.

The extraction and recognition of shipping container's identifier is difficult since the scale or the location of identifiers are not fixed-form and input images have some external noises. In this paper, based on these facts, first, edges are detected from input images using canny masking, and regions of container's Identifiers are extracted by applying horizontal and vertical histogram method to canny masked images. We use a fuzzy thresholding method to binaries the extracted container's identifier regions, and contour tracking algorithm to extract individual identifiers. In experimental results, we confirmed that the proposed method is superior In performance.

One of the problems of the currently used IPv4 addressing-structure is the fact that there is a shortage of IP addresses and many addresses are being wasted, especially on sub-netting design. The variable subnet masking is a resolution to reduce IP address wasting. We propose an effective subnet W address calculation and management method on VLSM. Also, with the proposed subnet IP address management method, a web based subnet allocation and management system is introduced.

Ocean Color Monitor (OCM) onboard the Indian Remote Sensing Satellite IRS-P4 has been used to retrieve chlorophyll concentration in the Bay of Bengal and the Arabian Sea using a bio-optical algorithm. Cloud masking and atmospheric corrections have been performed before applying mapping function to derive chlorophyll concentration from IRS-P4 OCM data. We have retrieved chlorophyll concentration from OCM, and MODIS during the summer and winter season along the eastern and western coast of India at every 1 degree latitude at increasing distance (25, 50, 100, 150 and 200km) away from the coast as well as near river mouths for the period 2000-2003. We have also studied spatial and temporal dynamics of monthly MODIS Aqua (for period July 2002-April 2004). The seasonal dynamics of chlorophyll concentration over the Bay of Bengal and the Arabian Sea have been discussed using OCM and MODIS for both the coastal region and the open sea.

Ship detection in synthetic aperture radar(SAR)imagery has long been an active research topic and has many applications. In this paper,we propose an efficient method for detecting ships from SAR imagery using filtering. This method exploits ship masking using a median filter that considers maximum ship sizes and detects ships from the reference image, to which a Non-Local means (NL-means) filter is applied for speckle de-noising and a differential image created from the difference between the reference image and the median filtered image. As the pixels of the ship in the SAR imagery have sufficiently higher values than the surrounding sea, the ship detection process is composed primarily of filtering based on this characteristic. The performance test for this method is validated using KOMPSAT-5 (Korea Multi-Purpose Satellite-5) SAR imagery. According to the accuracy assessment, the overall accuracy of the region that does not include land is 76.79%, and user accuracy is 71.31%. It is demonstrated that the proposed detection method is suitable to detect ships in SAR imagery and enables us to detect ships more easily and efficiently.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to identify the characteristics of anger expression in middle-aged Korean women by categorizing their patterns of expression while considering the complexity and multidimensionality of anger, and by investigating the characteristics relative to the patterns. Methods: The research design was a descriptive design using Q methodology, which is a method of measuring subjectivity. A convenience sample of 42 participants aged 40-60 years and living in the community in Korea was recruited. The PC-QUANL software program (a factor analysis program for the Q technique) was used to analyze the Q-sort data. Results: Four factors were extracted that described different expressions of anger among middle-aged Korean women; these factors explained 50.1% of the total variance. The frames of reference of the four factors were a) direct diversion, b) silent masking with remaining anger, c) self digestion, and d) controlling anger with objectification. Conclusion: In this study has identified patterns and characteristics of anger expression among middle-aged Korean women were identified, which will aid the development of effective anger-management programs for controlling anger in this population. In future studies, it would be helpful to investigate how the patterns of anger expression established herein are associated with specific health problems such as cardiovascular disorder and cancer.

Al(III) and Cr(III) were determined selectively by colorimetry of Bismark Brown R {4,4'[(4-methyl-1,3-phenylene)bis(azo)]-bis(6-methyl-1,3-benzenediamine) dihydrochloride} in the presence of the various cations and anions without the using of any masking agents, but tartrate and citrate ions were interfered. The ligand of Bismark Brown R and complexes of Al(III) and Cr(III) were shown the maximum absorbance at the same wavelength together and both metallic ion were interfered to determine each other, but Al(III) were able to determine after oxidation of Cr(III) to Cr(VI).
