Identification of individuals is a standard tool used to study animal behavior and ecology. Numerous studies based on photographic identifications of various marine mammal populations have been successfully conducted. The objective of this study was to validate a photo-identification method for spotted seals. We tested the method using 4,939 photographs gathered in 30 field surveys from 2006 to 2008 on Baekryongdo, Korea. In 2006, 20 individuals were identified and cataloged using unique spot patterns on their left chick pelages as a natural marker. In 2007 and 2008, three and nine individuals, respectively, were recaptured, with six individuals continually recaptured during the entire survey period. We confirmed that the spot patterns of spotted seal pelages were constant in shape and location throughout time. These characteristics offered an opportunity to consistently identify individuals within a population over the long survey period. The use of photo-identification has great potential for mark-recapture studies.

Recently, bottlenose dolphins have frequently appeared in coastal waters of the Jeju Islands. To determine whether these individuals belong to one or more pods, the Cetacean Research Institute (CRI) established visual and photo-identification surveys in the Jeju Islands from November 2007 to July 2009. During visual surveys, pods composed of 10 to 80 individuals were sighted mainly in the northeastern and northwestern of Jeju Islands. Eighty-nine individuals were identified and cataloged by photo-identification using natural nicks and notches on their dorsal fins. Thirty-six individuals were identified three times or more, and nine individuals were identified five times during seven surveys. One individual appeared in November 2007, August 2008, October 2008, April 2009, and July 2009. The results of our study confirm that these dolphins represent a coastal resident stock. Futhermore, we will establish dolphin abundance, management, and usage studies using continuous visual and photo-identification surveys.

The feasibility of photo-identification techniques for the bottlenose dolphins from Jeju Island, Korea, and the potential for dolphin watching were simultaneously evaluated in this study. During the sighting survey, a pod of bottlenose dolphins composed of approximately 30 individuals was observed in the southwestern coastal area of Jeju Island. Among 35 suitable photographs, five bottlenose dolphin individuals were identified and cataloged using unique nicks and notches on their dorsal fins. This shows that the Jeju Island dolphins can be individually identified by the nicks and notches on their dorsal fins using photo-identification techniques. Furthermore, the Jeju Island population appears to be suitable for long-term population biology studies using this technique. The potential for dolphin watching around the island would be higher if more information on the seasonal distribution, movement, and residency of this population were obtained.

Conclusion: The results of this study are encouraging for the development of a set of interpretable diagnostic criteria for a reasonably reliable identification of some species. The present study has been limited in the characteristics studied and was made on relatively poor photography. Further study on high quality photography, over wider areas and including such additional characteristics as crown texture and shadow intensity should prove useful. A preliminary examination has been made of some photo-image characteristics of a number of important tree species on large scale (1:9,000) contact prints of panchromatic mm. The characteristics studied were crown image tone, and shape. Image tone was estimated against a standard grey-scale and shows within-species consistency and a range between species. Crown shapes were subjectively assessed but there appears to be a within-species consistency and interpretable between-species differences. The results of this trial suggest that it should be practicable to make a number of important species distinctions by photo-interpretation with a useful degree of reliability. Other characteristics beside those studied might be usefully examined. Photography: Hand-printed glossy contact prints of vertical 1:9,000 scale panchromatic photography of Kwangnung Experimental Forest flown May 1964. The filter used is unknown (probably minus-blue). The camera is unknown but was probably a military type K-17 or K-22 with 6"(apostfophy) lens. The photography shows notably poor resolution. Species: 143 individual trees ranging through 11 species (7 softwood, 4 hardwood) were included in the study. A range of size classes were included for each species.

최근 국내 조선 산업과 IT융합기술에 대한 연구가 활발한 가운데 선박 안전운항을 위한 위성탐지 기술 발달로 선박에서는 장거리 식별추적 장치 및 자동식별 장치의 의무화로 선박이동 상황을 모니터링 할 수 있어 안전항해에 도움을 주고 있으나, 무중항해 시 시정 상태를 레이다에 의존하는 항해사에게 위험을 경보해 줄 수 있는 안전장치 개발이 필요하다. 이에 광센서를 이용하여 감지하고 알려주는 해무 감지 경보 시스템을 개발하였다. 제작된 해무 감지 경보 시스템은 소형, 저 전력의 광센서 송수신기와 센싱 데이터 처리 모듈로 구성되었다. 시험을 통해 해무가 있는 경우와 없는 경우 각각에 대해 제작된 해무 경보 시스템은 해무 농도를 검출하는 것을 확인하였다. 또한 해무 농도에 따라 선박 엔진 RPM 조절이 가능하고, 결과적으로 선박의 안전 운항을 보조 장치로 활용 가능함을 확인하였다.

본 논문에서는 신분증에 활용되는 사진의 위변조를 방지하기 위해서 사진 이미지에 신분증 소유자의 특정 정보를 은닉할 수 있는 새로운 워터마킹 알고리즘을 제안한다. 제안된 알고리즘은 이미지 분할과 확산 스펙트럼의 상관도 피크 위치를 변조하는 위치 코딩 기법을 이용하였다. 사진에 삽입된 워터마트는 인쇄와 스캔과정에서도 깨지지 않도록 강인성을 확보하였으며, 작은 사진에 주민등록번호와 같은 고유번호를 숨길 수 있는 충분한 삽입 용량을 확보하였다. 제안 알고리즘의 또 하나의 장점은 정보의 삽입과 추출을 $1{\times}1$ 화소 단위가 아닌 $2^h{\times}2^w$ 샘플 단위로 함으로써, 일정 범위내의 회전에 대해 보정없이 정보를 정확하게 추출할 수 있다는 장점을 가지고 있다. 22명의 사진에 대해 300dpi의 스캐너와 프린터를 이용한 실험에서 $256{\times}256$ 크기의 신분증 사진에 40 비트의 정보가 0% BER로 삽입되고 추출될 수 있었다. 결론적으로, 제안 알고리즘은 인쇄, 스캔 과정에서 발생되는 잡음과 회전 에러에 대해 강인성을 보여준다.

In this paper, we used optoelectronic feedback to generate the carrier frequency for the ASK modulation of a lighting LED. A solar cell was used for photo-detector in the feedback circuit, and the LED light was ASK modulated by controlling the ON/OFF state of the switch that is installed in the feedback loop. The oscillation frequency of the optoelectronic feedback loop was about 50 kHz and the data rate of the ASK modulation was 9.6 kbps. In experiments, the optoelectronic feedback circuit was used for the ASK modulation of a lighting LED in the transponder of a visible light identification system, and data exchange between the transponder and the reader was successfully carried out.

A method is described for measuring clinically relevant levels of glucose in a pH 7.4 phosphate buffer by nearinfrared (NIR) absorption spectroscopy. Three types of NIR spectrometer, dispersive type, photo-diode array (PDA) type, and fourier transform (FT) type spectrometer were used and the performance was compared. Spectra were collected with a cuvette cell or quartz liquid fiber of 1 mm or 2 mm optical pathlength as transmittance method. Glucose absorption band appeared at second overtone, first overtone, and combination region for all systems. By use of the multivariate technigue of partial least squares (PLS) regression, glucose concentrations can be determined with a 16, 44, and 9.1 mg/d l standard error of prediction for dispersive type, photo-diode array type, and fourier transform type system, respectively. Sensitivity of spectrometer was evaluated by absorbance for the difference of 10 mg/d l glucose. Three absorption bands, second overtone, first overtone, and combination region were suited to three types systems, dispersive type, photo-diode array type, and fourier transform type systems, respectively. This investigation showed that three types NIR spectrometer were proper method for identification and quantitative analysis of glucose and possible for noninvasive blood glucose monitoring.

We have studied a method for the preparation of hybrid $carbon/TiO_2$ complexes involving pitch coating, pitch binding and the penetration of titanium n-butoxide(TNB) solution with porous carbon. The photocatalysts were investigated with surface textural properties and SEM morphology, structural crystallinity and elemental identification between porous carbon and $TiO_2$, and dye decomposition performance. For the all $carbon/TiO_2$ complexes prepared by some kinds of different methods, the excellent photocatalytic effect for dye degradation should be attributed to the both effects between photo-decomposition of the supported $TiO_2$ and adsorptivity of the porous carbons.

최근 복합 문화 시설이 증가하면서 지하 공간 활용이 확대됨에 따라, 사용자의 실내 위치에 따른 주변 정보만을 무선으로 제공해주는 맞춤형 서비스에 대한 요구도 확산되고 있다. LED 조명을 이용한 가시광 통신 방식의 경우, GPS를 사용할 수 없는 실내 공간에서 위치 기반 서비스를 구현하기에 적합하다. 이에 본 논문에서는 가시광 통신을 이용한 실내 위치 기반 서비스를 구현하기 위해 기준 위치를 구분하는 실험에 대해 다룬다. LED 조명의 특성을 고려하여 LED와 PD 간의 각도 및 거리에 따라 LED 조명별로 서로 다른 식별 패턴을 ASCII 코드로 전송한 결과 최대 1.75m의 거리까지 LED 조명의 식별자를 수신할 수 있음을 확인한다. 이러한 실험 결과를 통하여 LED 조명을 이용한 실내 네비게이션의 가능성을 확인해볼 수 있다.
