  • The purpose of this study was to measure pH, trimethylamine (TMA), and total volatile basic nitrogen (TVB-N) as indicators of freshness during largehead hairtail Trichiurus lepturus storage, and to compare these indicators with those obtained by the sensory evaluation of quality index method (QIM) sensory evaluation. Largehead hairtail samples were stored at 4℃ and evaluated every 3 days until decay. The QIM sensory evaluation indicated scores of 0, 8.9, and 20 on storage days 0, 6, and 20, respectively. By day 15, the samples were completely decayed. The pH slowly increased during the storage period, reaching a maximum of 7.4. In the day 6, TMA and TVB-N contents were 2.97 and 15.57 mg/100 g, respectively. Thus, at 4℃, the largehead hairtail starts to decay after 6 days and, after 9 days, cannot be consumed safely

  • With the rapid development of the VR industry, many VR contents are produced and circulated, and the need for copyright protection is increasing. In this paper, we propose a method of embedding and extracting watermarks in consideration of VR production process. In embedding, SIFT is performed by selecting the region where distortion is minimized in VR production, and transformed into frequency domain using DWT and embedded into the QIM method. In extracting process, in order to correct the distortion in the projection process, the top and bottom regions are changed to different projection methods and some middle regions are rotated using 3DoF to extract the watermark. After this processing, extracted watermark has higher accuracy than the conventional watermark method, and the validity of the proposed watermark is shown by showing that the accuracy is maintained even in various attacks.

  • This paper proposes a new watermarking scheme in which a logo watermark is embedded into the discrete wavelet transform (DWT) domain of the original image using exact radial basis function neural networks (RBF). RBF will learn the characteristics of the image, and then watermark is embedded and extracted by the trained RBF. A watermark is added to the coefficients at the low frequency band of the DWT of an image and a watermark is embedded into the DWT domain using the trained RBF. The trained RBF also used in watermark extracting process. Experimental results show that the proposed method has good imperceptibility and high robustness to common image processing attacks.

  • 최근 스마트폰과 어플리케이션의 기술 발전으로 일상생활에서 은행의 주거래 혹은 보안인증으로 생체정보를 이용하는 것이 급격히 확대되고 있다. 이러한 생체정보 보호를 위해 디지털 콘텐츠 내에 저작권자의 정보를 삽입하여 정보를 보호하는 기술인 워터마킹 기술을 도입하여 생체정보의 복제 혹은 도용 시에 발생할 수 있는 문제를 예방하는 것이 본 연구의 목적이다. 본 논문에서는 홍채 이미지에 DWT를 적용한후 QIM 방식을 이용해 임의의 QR코드로 워터마크를 삽입하여 홍채 코드를 추출한후 워터마크를 삽입하기 전의 홍채코드와 삽입 후의 홍채코드를 PSNR 통해 비교 분석하고 Stirmark 에서 제공하는 강인성 테스트를 이용해 강인성의 정도를 알아본다.

  • One of the most widely used image media in recent years, omni-directional panorama images are attracting much attention. Since this image is ultra-high value-added, the intellectual property of this image must be protected. In this paper, we propose a blind digital watermarking method for this image. In this paper, we assume that the owner of each original image may be different, insert different watermark data into each original image, and extract the watermark from the projected image, which is a form of service of omni- directional panorama image. Therefore, the main target attack in this paper is the image distortion which occurs in the process of the omni- directional panorama image. In this method, SIFT feature points of non-stitched areas are used, and watermark data is inserted into data around each feature point. We propose two methods of using two-dimensional DWT coefficients and spatial domain data as data for inserting watermark. Both methods insert watermark data by QIM method. Through experiments, these two methods show robustness against the distortion generated in the panorama image generation process, and additionally show sufficient robustness against JPEG compression attack.

  • Digital video content is the most information-intensive and high-value content. Therefore, it is necessary to protect the intellectual property rights of these contents, and this paper also proposes a watermarking method of digital image for this purpose. The proposed method uses the frequency characteristics of 2-Dimensional Discrete Wavelet Transform (2D-DWT) for digital images and digital watermark on global data without using local or specific data of the image for watermark embedding. The method to insert digital watermark data uses a simple Quantization Index Modulation (QIM) and a multiple watermarking method that inserts the same watermark data in multiple. When extracting a watermark, multiple watermarks are extracted and the final watermark data is determined by a simple statistical method. This method is an empirical method for experimentally determining the parameters in the watermark embedding process. The proposed method performs experiments on various images against various attacks and shows the superiority of the proposed method by comparing the performance with the representative existing methods.

  • Extracellular cyclodextrin glucanotransferase (CGTase) from Paenibacillus sp. JK-12 was purified through sev-eral purification steps consisting of ammonium sulfate precipitation and chromatographies on DEAE-sephadex A-50 and Mono QIM HR5/5. The purified CGTase exhibited a single band on SDS-PAGE and was estimated to be approximately 82 kDa. The isoelectric point of the enzyme was 7.2 as determined by isoelectric focusing. The CGTase from Paenibacillus sp. JK-12 had a transglucosylation activity at the C-2 position of L-ascorbic acid. The optimum pH and temperature for the CGTase activity were 8.0 and 5$0^{\circ}C$, respectively. The enzyme activity was stable from pH 6.0 to 9.() and at temperatures up to 55$^{\circ}C$ at pB 8.0, having 80% residual activity. The activity of the CGTase was strongly resistant to metals such as A $g^{+}$ and $Ba^{2+}$ but slightly inhibited by H $g^{+}$, N $i^{2+}$ and $Mg^{2+}$. The enzymeproduced $\alpha$ -cyclodextrin ($\alpha$-CD) and $\beta$-CD as the main products from starch, but not ${\gamma}$-CD.X>-CD.
