The family Araneidae is a group of orb-weaving spiders and is one of the most diverse groups among the order Araneae. Eighty-one species belonging to 25 genera have been recorded in Korea to date. In this study, four araneid spiders in three genera, viz., Araneus mayumiae, Araneus ogatai, Cyclosa onoi, and Plebs baotianmanensis, were discovered for the first time in Korea. Additionally, Plebs yebongsanensis is removed from synonymy of Plebs sachalinensis, and treated as a new junior synonym of P. baotianmanensis, based on a morphological comparison of females of three Plebs species. Detailed descriptions of four species are provided with accompanying photographs.

본 논문에서는 구면 파노라마를 기반으로 하는 SLAM 시스템을 제안한다. Vision SLAM은 촬영하는 시야각이 넓을수록 적은 프레임으로도 주변을 빠르게 파악할 수 있고, 많은 양의 주변 데이터를 이용해 더욱 안정적인 추정이 가능하다. 구면 파노라마 비디오는 가장 화각이 넓은 영상으로, 모든 방향을 활용할 수 있기 때문에 Fisheye 영상보다 더욱 빠르게 3D 맵을 확장해나갈 수 있다. 기존의 시스템 중 Fisheye 영상을 기반으로 하는 시스템은 전면 광각만을 수용할 수 있기 때문에 구면 파노라마를 입력으로 하는 경우보다 적용 범위가 줄어들게 된다. 본 논문에서는 기존에 Fisheye 비디오를 기반으로 하는 SLAM 시스템을 구면 파노라마의 영역으로 확장하는 방법을 제안한다. 제안 방법은 카메라의 투영 모델이 요구하는 파라미터를 정확히 계산하고, Dual Fisheye Model을 통해 모든 시야각을 손실 없이 활용한다.

New mobile phones with high tech-camera and a large size memory have been recently launched and people upload pictures of beautiful scenes or unknown flowers in SNS. This paper develops a flower recognition system that can get information on flowers in the place where mobile communication is not even available. It consists of a registration part for reference flowers and a recognition part based on OpenCV for Android platform. A new color classification method using RGB color channel and K-means clustering is proposed to reduce the recognition processing time. And ORB for feature extraction and Brute-Force Hamming algorithm for matching are used. We use 12 kinds of flowers with four color groups, and 60 images are applied for reference DB design and 60 images for test. Simulation results show that the success rate is 83.3% and the average recognition time is 2.58 s on Huawei ALEUL00 and the proposed system is suitable for a mobile phone without a network.

Detecting obstacles and generating a suitable path to avoid obstacles in real time is a prime mission requirement for UAVs. In areas, close to buildings and people, detecting obstacles in the path and estimating its own position (egomotion) in GPS degraded/denied environments are usually addressed with vision-based Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM) techniques. This presents possibilities and challenges for the feasible path generation with constraints of vehicle dynamics in the configuration space. In this paper, a near real-time feasible path is shown to be generated in the ORB-SLAM framework using a chain-based path planning approach in a force field with dynamic constraints on path length and minimum turn radius. The chain-based path plan approach generates a set of nodes which moves in a force field that permits modifications of path rapidly in real time as the reward function changes. This is different from the usual approach of generating potentials in the entire search space around UAV, instead a set of connected waypoints in a simulated chain. The popular ORB-SLAM, suited for real time approach is used for building the map of the environment and UAV position and the UAV path is then generated continuously in the shortest time to navigate to the goal position. The principal contribution are (a) Chain-based path planning approach with built in obstacle avoidance in conjunction with ORB-SLAM for the first time, (b) Generation of path with minimum overheads and (c) Implementation in near real time.

As an application software in distributed computing environment becomes large, the number of objects to be created increases drastically and the interfaces among them become very complex, The concept of group object resolves this problem to some extent by grouping a set of related objects, encapsulating them and controlling their interfaces systematically. In this paper, we propose an implementation model f the group object concept in CORBA, which is a standard middle ware for developing distributed application software on heterogeneous networks. To support group objects we extends CORBA ORB without modifying its internal structure for the compatibility with existing CORBA applications. And we devise an interface definition language by extending CORBA IDL to describe group objects in a language-independent style, which is one of the most important characteristics in CORBA. Finally, we experiment the implementation model on a CORBA ORB compliant product which supports the Java language.

This paper introduces a method for generating model images that can identify specific cylindrical medicine containers in videos and investigates data collection techniques. Previous research had separated object detection from specific object recognition, making it challenging to apply automated image stitching. A significant issue was that the coordinate-based object detection method included extraneous information from outside the object area during the image stitching process. To overcome these challenges, this study applies the newly released YOLOv8 (You Only Look Once) segmentation technique to vertically rotating pill bottles video and employs the ORB (Oriented FAST and Rotated BRIEF) feature matching algorithm to automate model image generation. The research findings demonstrate that applying segmentation techniques improves recognition accuracy when identifying specific pill bottles. The model images created with the feature matching algorithm could accurately identify the specific pill bottles.

This paper compares the combination performance of feature point-based matching algorithms as a study to confirm the matching possibility between image taken by a user and a virtual texture image with the goal of developing mobile-based real-time image positioning technology. The feature based matching algorithm includes process of extracting features, calculating descriptors, matching features from both images, and finally eliminating mismatched features. At this time, for matching algorithm combination, we combined the process of extracting features and the process of calculating descriptors in the same or different matching algorithm respectively. V-World 3D desktop was used for the virtual indoor texture image. Currently, V-World 3D desktop is reinforced with details such as vertical and horizontal protrusions and dents. In addition, levels with real image textures. Using this, we constructed dataset with virtual indoor texture data as a reference image, and real image shooting at the same location as a target image. After constructing dataset, matching success rate and matching processing time were measured, and based on this, matching algorithm combination was determined for matching real image with virtual image. In this study, based on the characteristics of each matching technique, the matching algorithm was combined and applied to the constructed dataset to confirm the applicability, and performance comparison was also performed when the rotation was additionally considered. As a result of study, it was confirmed that the combination of Scale Invariant Feature Transform (SIFT)'s feature and descriptor detection had the highest matching success rate, but matching processing time was longest. And in the case of Features from Accelerated Segment Test (FAST)'s feature detector and Oriented FAST and Rotated BRIEF (ORB)'s descriptor calculation, the matching success rate was similar to that of SIFT-SIFT combination, while matching processing time was short. Furthermore, in case of FAST-ORB, it was confirmed that the matching performance was superior even when 10° rotation was applied to the dataset. Therefore, it was confirmed that the matching algorithm of FAST-ORB combination could be suitable for matching between virtual texture image and real image.

This study was conducted to evaluate the effects of dietary onion supplementation on the growth rate and blood cholesterol level in finishing pigs. Sixty $Duroc\;{\times}\;Yorkshire\;{\times}\;Landrace$ pigs ($69.75{\pm}0.79kg$ average BW) were used in a 50 day growth assay. Dietary treatments included 1) corn-SBM (Con), 2) 1)+dietary onion rice bran 1.0% (ORB1), 3) 1)+dietary onion rice bran 2.0% (ORB2). For overall period, average daily weight gain and average daily feed intake were increased by the addition of dietary onion compared with Con (linear effect; p<0.01). Feed efficiency ratio was successfully improved by supplementation of dietary onion (linear effect; p<0.01). The total cholesterol concentrations in serum decreased as the concentration of onion in the diets was increased (linear effect, p<0.06). Also, LDL-cholesterol concentrations in serum tended to decrease in pigs fed onion than in those fed Con diet group (linear effect, p<0.04; quadratic effect, p<0.09). The HDL-cholesterol and triacylglyceride concentrations in serum were not influenced by the onion supplementation. The results obtained from this feeding trial suggest that the dietary onion supplementation for finishing pigs weighed 70 to 108 kg had improved growth performance and reduced total cholesterol level of serum.

Major space agencies are planning for the rover-based lunar exploration since water-ice was detected in permanently shadowed regions (PSR). Although sunlight does not directly reach the PSRs, it is expected that reflected sunlight sustains a certain level of low-light environment. In this research, the indoor testbed was made to simulate the PSR's lighting and topological conditions, to which low light enhancement methods (CLAHE, Dehaze, RetinexNet, GLADNet) were applied to restore image brightness and color as well as to investigate their influences on the performance of feature extraction and matching methods (SIFT, SURF, ORB, AKAZE). The experiment results show that GLADNet and Dehaze images in order significantly improve image brightness and color. However, the performance of the feature extraction and matching methods were improved by Dehaze and GLADNet images in order, especially for ORB and AKAZE. Thus, in the lunar exploration, Dehaze is appropriate for building 3D topographic map whereas GLADNet is adequate for geological investigation.
