Culture technology (CT) becomes important in the recent environment where digital technology drives content-based innovations. However, technological trends of CT have not been systematically discussed. Especially, the trends of CT should be analyzed from the national perspective, because CT has grown with the help of government-driven innovation. Therefore, this paper aims to analyze CT trends focusing on national research projects. We collected data on CT from the national science and technology information service (NTIS) database, analyzed the keyword co-occurrence network, and identified the patterns of technological innovation using a clustering analysis. As a result, we found that CT has contributed to the digital content and cultural media, and has been actively developed with the help of machine learning technique. Especially, due to the rise of Covid-19, the non-face-to-face online content is rapidly increasing. This study provides important clues for understanding, analyzing CT trends.

Drought forecasting is crucial to minimize the damage to food security and water resources caused by drought. Satellite-based drought research has been conducted since 1980s, which includes drought monitoring, assessment, and prediction. Unlike numerous studies on drought monitoring and assessment for the past few decades, satellite-based drought forecasting has gained popularity in recent years. For successful drought forecasting, it is necessary to carefully identify the relationships between drought factors and drought conditions by drought type and lead time. This paper aims to provide an overview of recent research trends and challenges for satellite-based drought forecasts focusing on lead times. Based on the recent literature survey during the past decade, the satellite-based drought forecasting studies were divided into three groups by lead time (i.e., short-term, sub-seasonal, and seasonal) and reviewed with the characteristics of the predictors (i.e., drought factors) and predictands (i.e., drought indices). Then, three major challenges-difficulty in model generalization, model resolution and feature selection, and saturation of forecasting skill improvement-were discussed, which led to provide several future research directions of satellite-based drought forecasting.

Satellite-based land surface temperature (LST) has been used as one of the major parameters in various climate and environmental models. Especially, Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) LST is the most widely used satellite-based LST product due to its spatiotemporal coverage (1 km spatial and sub-daily temporal resolutions) and longevity (> 20 years). However, there is an increasing demand for LST products with finer spatial resolution (e.g., 10-250 m) over regions such as urban areas. Therefore, various methods have been proposed to produce high-resolution MODIS-like LST less than 250 m (e.g., 100 m). The purpose of this review is to provide a comprehensive overview of recent research trends and challenges for the downscaling of MODIS LST. Based on the recent literature survey for the past decade, the downscaling techniques classified into three groups-kernel-driven, fusion-based, and the combination of kernel-driven and fusion-based methods-were reviewed with their pros and cons. Then, five open issues and challenges were discussed: uncertainty in LST retrievals, low thermal contrast, the nonlinearity of LST temporal change, cloud contamination, and model generalization. Future research directions of LST downscaling were finally provided.

This paper measures the operational efficiency of domestic online game companies and analyze its trends and patterns by using data envelopment analysis (DEA). DEA is a non-parametric approach to measuring the relative efficiency of decision-making units (DMUs) with multiple inputs and outputs. 14 online game companies are selected as DMUs and three inputs (number of employees, capital and asset) and three outputs (sales, operating profit and net profit) are selected as DEA variables. First, the output-oriented BCC model and super-efficiency model are employed to measure the static operational efficiency of the online game companies from 2003 to 2012. We also conduct the dynamic analysis with DEA window model to capture the trends of their operational efficiency influenced by internal and external environmental changes. The results are expected to provide fruitful implications for strategic decision making of online game companies and policy making for the online game industry.

Plastics are comparatively new polymeric materials that are manufactured by chemical synthesis, making them different from natural materials such as wood, paper, stone, metal, and glass. Due to a wide range of properties, including processing capabilities and duration, plastics have become rapidly ubiquitous, being used in all industries, and have improved our quality of life. However, it is true that plastics cause environmental contamination problems that have become important social issues, such as environmental hormone leakage due to incineration or reclamation, difficulty in securing reclamation sites, and deadly poisonous dioxin generated by the incomplete incineration of waste plastic materials. To solve these problems, it is urgent to develop and commercialize degradable plastics that can be stably and conveniently used just as general plastics, and that are easily decomposed by sunlight, soil microbes, and heat generated from reclaimed land after use. This review presents recent worldwide trends in the development and marketing of environmentally degradable plastics.

Yogurt is a food produced by bacterial fermentation of milk and the bacteria used to make it are known as "yogurt cultures". Most of them belong to probiotics such as Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus and Streptococcus thermophilus bacteria. Domestic fermented milk market is increasing and about 30 companies are producing yogurt. The purpose of this study was to analyze the quality characteristics of domestic commercial semisolid type yogurt. We collected 20 types of commercial yogurt at local markets. Physicochemical properties including pH, sugar content, acidity, viscosity and microbial characteristics of lactic acid bacteria counts were measured. The yogurt showed pH 4.5, 7.4~18.1% of sugar contents, 0.6~1.3% of total acids and 282~748 cP of viscosities. In the microorganism populations, lactic acid bacteria count were 6.5~11.5 Log CFU/mL and anaerobic lactic acid bacteria count were 7.2 ~ 11.1 Log CFU/mL. The quality characteristics were different depending on the constituents of the sample and the microorganisms used. These results are related to the quality characteristics of yogurts which are useful information about identifying new trends in domestic fermented milk industry.

Companies and Governments have Mainly used the Delphi Technique to Understand Research or Technology Trends. Because this Technique has the Disadvantage of Consuming a Large Amount of Time and Money, this Study Attempted to Understand and Predict Science and Technology Trends using the Topic Modeling Technique Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA). To this end, 20 Specific Artificial Intelligence (AI) Technologies were Extracted From the Abstracts of the US Patent Documents on AI. With Regard to the Extracted Specific Technologies, Core Technologies were Identified, and then these were Divided into Hot and Cold Technologies though a Trend Analysis on their Annual Proportions. Text/Word Searching, Computer Management, Programming Syntax, Network Administration, Multimedia, and Wireless Network Technology were Derived From Hot Technologies. These Technologies are Key Technologies that are Actively Studied in the Field of AI in Recent Years. The Methodology Suggested in this Study may be used to Analyze Trends, Derive Policies, or Predict Technical Demands in Various Fields such as Social Issues, Regional Innovation, and Management.
