In recent years, service discovery is one of the major technologies of home networks which head for a pervasive computing environment. However, existing service discovery techniques are difficult to understand semantics, and they only provide syntactic level service matching. To solve these problems, we have designed and developed ontology for semantic service discovery. Our ontology could enrich the amount of devices and services representations with semantics, and the relation of devices and service could be efficiently described through primitive service. For representing context information of devices, we describe attributes of device including location information, device status and etc. To determine whether the developed ontology can be applied to service discovery systems, we have implemented a semantic service discovery system by extension of the existing Jini lookup service. Also, we have evaluated our ontology with associated software environment according to some experiment scenarios, and have proved the usefulness of our ontology-based semantic service discovery system.

Human mobility estimation plays a key factor in a lot of promising applications including location-based recommendation systems, urban planning, and disease outbreak control. We study the human mobility estimation problem in the case where recent locations of a person-of-interest are unknown. Since matrix decomposition is used to perform latent semantic analysis of multi-dimensional data, we propose a human location estimation algorithm based on matrix factorization to reconstruct the human movement patterns through the use of information of persons with correlated movements. Specifically, the optimization problem which minimizes the difference between the reconstructed and actual movement data is first formulated. Then, the gradient descent algorithm is applied to adjust parameters which contribute to reconstructed mobility data. The experiment results show that the proposed framework can be used for the prediction of human location and achieves higher predictive accuracy than a baseline model.

In this paper, we propose a automation of the classification process for reusable software component and construction method of structured software components library. In order to efficient and automatic classification of software component, we decide the facets to represent characteristics of software component by acquiring semantic and syntactic information from software components descriptions in natural language, and compose the software component identifier or automatic extract terms corresponds to each facets. And then, in order to construct the structured software components library, we sore in the near location with software components of similar characteristic according to semantic similarity of the classified software components. As the result of applying proposed method, we can easily identify similar software components, the classification process of software components become simple, and the software components store in the structured software components library.

In this study, we select and analyze the slang that is represented in Elistratov's "Dictionary of Russian slang". Through the above analysis, some conclusions were drawn as follows: First, as a social and psychological phenomenon appears universal in all languages, the study of slang generates strict criteria for the analysis. Unlike literary language, listed in the dictionary slang expressions can become obsolete for their short period of usage by native speakers. Therefore, in the following research of the actual data, we have to validate words targeted for analysis. Second, as the result of the analysis it is metaphor for the most part studied rather than metonymy. The semantic derivations as a result of metonymy are used very frequently in real life. But in this study we mainly analyze words, therefore the number of words was less in metonymy than was expected. Third, the basic types of metaphor are appeared as similarity by form, function, and location, and there are varieties of intervening of subjectivity in similarity of emotional impression. Fourth, the metonymy is divided into three cases: the part meaning the whole, the whole meaning the part, and some thing meaning the reality of where it exists. Fifth, not only literary language, but also slang as the 'transitional process' is the most active way of development of new meanings, and there are two methods to transfer main meaning to second meaning.

As the amount of the wireless mobile products like a 'Smart phone' used increases, the studies about the Location Based Service (LBS) is highly increasing. Outdoor location determination can use the GPS which is built-in in the wireless mobile products. However, it is not possible to use GPS inside the huge cruise bigger than a normal building, it is regarded to consider Indoor location determination which is appropriate at the inside environment. Wi-Fi (Wireless Fidelity) does not need an extra installation process because it is already installed here and there inside the building. In this respect, Wi-Fi has low price competitiveness compared to other wireless sensor products. In this paper, I will introduce 'Bayesian Algorithm' which can recognize useful space with Wi-Fi signal.

In the future, the ubiquitous computing environment will provide users with context-aware services, intelligently interacting with omnipresent resources and surrounding environments at any location and time. Therefore, the ubiquitous computing environment requires context-aware applications in order to gather and analyze context information in various situations. However, existing context-aware applications have mainly focused on providing services and adapting themselves to users based on user related contexts. But this environment requires not only user related contexts but also Quality-of-Service (QoS) related contexts. In this paper we propose a frame-work for supporting user-oriented QoS in ubiquitous environments. The proposed approach adopts a semantic ontology and a neural network algorithm in order to reason about explicit and uncertain contexts. We also show the possibility of applying the framework to real environments such as collaborative engineering service, automobile maintenance service and ubiquitous home service.

There is mounting evidence that complex computer system displays in control rooms contribute to cognitive complexity and, thus, to the probability of human error. Research shows that reaction time increases and response accuracy decreases as the number of elements in the display screen increase. However, in terms of supporting the control room operator, approaches focusing on addressing display complexity solely in terms of information density and its location and patterning, will fall short of delivering a properly designed interface. This paper argues that information complexity and semantic complexity are mandatory components when considering display complexity and that the addition of these concepts assists in understanding and resolving differences between designers and the preferences and performance of operators. This paper concludes that a number of simplified methods, when combined, can be used to estimate the impact that a particular display may have on the operator's ability to perform a function accurately and effectively. We present a mixed qualitative and quantitative approach and a method for complexity estimation.

A protein's subcellular localization is considered an essential part of the description of its associated biomolecular phenomena. As the volume of biomolecular reports has increased, there has been a great deal of research on text mining to detect protein subcellular localization information in documents. It has been argued that linguistic information, especially syntactic information, is useful for identifying the subcellular localizations of proteins of interest. However, previous systems for detecting protein subcellular localization information used only shallow syntactic parsers, and showed poor performance. Thus, there remains a need to use a full syntactic parser and to apply deep linguistic knowledge to the analysis of text for protein subcellular localization information. In addition, we have attempted to use semantic information from the WordNet thesaurus. To improve performance in detecting protein subcellular localization information, this paper proposes a three-step method based on a full syntactic dependency parser and WordNet thesaurus. In the first step, we constructed syntactic dependency paths from each protein to its location candidate, and then converted the syntactic dependency paths into dependency trees. In the second step, we retrieved root information of the syntactic dependency trees. In the final step, we extracted syn-semantic patterns of protein subtrees and location subtrees. From the root and subtree nodes, we extracted syntactic category and syntactic direction as syntactic information, and synset offset of the WordNet thesaurus as semantic information. According to the root information and syn-semantic patterns of subtrees from the training data, we extracted (protein, localization) pairs from the test sentences. Even with no biomolecular knowledge, our method showed reasonable performance in experimental results using Medline abstract data. Our proposed method gave an F-measure of 74.53% for training data and 58.90% for test data, significantly outperforming previous methods, by 12-25%.

웹에서 다양한 웹 지리 지역 정보를 검색할 수 있는 시스템에 대한 요구가 증가하고 있다. 그러나 현재의 웹 검색 시스템은 사용자가 키워드로 지역 웹 문서를 검색하고 해당 웹 문서를 지도와 비교하여 공간정보를 취득하며, 다른 관련 정보를 얻기 위해서는 검색과 비교를 반복해야 하는 어려움이 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 비구조화 된 텍스트 웹 자원으로부터 지리정보 온툴로지(geo-ontology)를 확장할 수 있는 통합된 검색시스템을 제안한다. 이를 위해 문서의 정보에서 위치 정보를 추출하고 공간정보 위치 맵핑 기법을 적용하여 텍스트의 공간정보를 추출한다.

본 논문에서 제안하는 XMF(XML-based Mediation Framework)는 인터넷상의 이질적이고 분산되어 있는 정보 자원에 대하여 사용자에게는 위치 투명성(location transparency)과 접근 투명성(access transparency)을 보장하면서 통합시 발생하는 구조적 충돌(structural conflict)과 의미적 충돌(semantic conflict)을 해결하는 기능을 가지고 있다. 또한 XMF는 통합 모델로써 XML을 채택함으로써 모든 정보 자원에 대하여 모델링 할 수 있게 된다. 본 논문은 이러한 XMF를 기반으로 인터넷에 산재하는 정보 자원, 그리고 DBMS에 저장, 관리되는 데이터를 통합하여 사용자에게 가상 멀티미디어 문서(virtual multimedia document)를 제공하는 시스템을 구축하는 것이다.
