Currently, XML and its schema language have become the standard for data representation and information exchange format on the current web. Unfortunately, problems happen when integrating different data sources since XML mainly supports the document structure but lack consideration on sharing knowledge of data. Meanwhile, Semantic Web technologies, such as Web Ontology Language (OWL), can include the structure as well as the semantics of the data. Therefore, finding a way to integrate XML data as OWL ontology receives a high interest nowadays. In this paper we present a mapping notation to convert XML Schema to OWL domain knowledge and an effective method to transform XML instances into OWL individuals. While keeping the XML original structure, our work also adds more semantics for the XML document. Moreover, whole of the transformation processes are done automatically without any user interference. Further, our transforming approach provides the solution for duplicate element names in XML document which has not mentioned in the previous work. Our results in existing OWL syntaxes can be loaded immediately by OWL editors and Semantic Web applications.

Semantic web technology is the evolution of current World Wide Web including a machine-understandable knowledge database, ontology, it may be enable machine and people to work together. However, problems arise when we try to communicate with different data, which are annotated by different ontologies created by different people with different concepts. Thus, to communicate between ontologies, it needs to align between heterogeneous ontologies. When it is aligned between concept nodes of heterogeneous ontologies, one of main problems is a misalignment situation caused by false negative of automatic ontology mapping. So, in this paper, we present a new method to minimize the false negative error in the process of aligning concept nodes of different ontology.

What is the semantic function of visual image in Contemporary art? This article proposes that representation is semantically still important in post-modernism as well as in modernism. The semantic function of representation has been changed by keeping pace with times. In modernism the 'outer representation' changed to 'inner representation', and in postmodernism the 'inner representation' changed to 'metaphorical representation'. The 'outer representation' means that image indicates a certain object or subject as the classical realism. In this case, the meaning of image is subordinate to an object, and a one-to-one correspond existed between the image and the object. Because this 'outer representation' is focused on an object but subject's intention, the indicative function of meaning is definite and singular. The 'inner representation' means that image exposes the fundamentals or process of an object. In this case, the meaning of image resolves itself into an absolute fundamental, and one-to-many correspond existed between the image and the object. Because this 'inner representation' is focused on essence and substance but an external form, the indicative function of meaning is inclusive and general. The 'metaphorical representation' means that image critically relates social constraint and condition as metaphor and allegory. In this case, the meaning of image is not subordinate to an object and a subject, and the image and the object indicate interactively. Because this 'metaphorical representation' is focused on interaction between subject, object, and interpreter, the indicative function of meaning is differant and ecological. This article focused on the representation because I believe that continuous thinking of totality can be opened by cognitive mapping, even though we never understand the world totally in the chaotic post modern age.

As the penetration of electric vehicles and development of new models, user experience factors are getting more important in designing connectivity systems for car infotainment services. The primary object of this study is to identify commonalities and differences by comparing user experience factors in the Korean and US electric vehicle markets. This study derived connectivity keywords by text mining the vehicle introduction on the market in each country, and performed centrality, cluster analysis and visualization mapping using the semantic network analysis. As a result, the Korean new electric vehicle connectivity service mainly focused on driving functions such as driving, parking assistance, and charging, while US focused on device connection, convenience function control, app use, entertainment viewing. Based on the analysis, this study presented the practical implications in marketing, system design, and HMI design.

온톨로지 매핑 기술은 시맨틱 웹을 비롯한 여러 분야에서 중요한 기술 중 하나이다. 온톨로지 매핑은 두 개의 온톨로지를 입력으로 받고, 이를 몇 개의 매개변수로 구성된 특정 알고리즘을 이용하여 두 온톨로지 간의 매칭 관계를 알아내고 이를 표현하는 절차를 말한다. 온톨로지 매핑을 이용하여 대용량 온톨로지의 통합이나, 지능화된 통합 검색을 구현할 수 있고, 여러 응용프로그램이 하나의 도메인을 공유하는 등 여러가지 방안으로 사용할 수 있다. 일반적으로 온톨로지 매핑의 성능을 판단하는데 있어서 매핑 결과를 측정하는 방법론의 측정 값을 주로 고려해왔다. 본 연구에서는 매핑을 수행할 때 두 개의 파라미터를 사용하였는데 하나는 알파이고 하나는 Threshold이다. 이것은 매핑의 정확성을 판단하는데 많은 영향을 미친다. 앞서 언급했듯이 매핑결과에 대한 측정값을 중요하게 여기기 때문에 많은 매핑관련 연구에서 알고리즘이 좋은 측정값을 도출할 수 있도록 파라미터를 조절하는 것에 초점을 맞춰왔다. 본 연구에서 측정방법에 따른 높은 측정결과를 지향하는 것이 아닌 온톨로지의 성격과 매핑결과의 사용처에 따라 파라미터를 적절히 변화시켜야 한다는 점에 주목하고, 주어진 환경과 매핑의 사용처에 알맞게 파라미터를 조정하는 방법론을 제안하고자 한다.

Many techniques have been proposed for mapping from XML to relations, but most techniques did not negotiate the semantics of XML data. The semantics is important to validate storage, query optimization, modification anomaly in process of schema design. Specially, functional dependencies are an important part of database theory, also it is basis of normalization for relational table in BCNF. This paper propose a new technique that reflect functional dependencies to store relation mapped from XML based on XML Schema. The technique can reduce storage redundancy and can keep up content and structure with constraint described by functional dependencies.

본 연구에서는 인간언어공학에서의 활용을 위해 세종전자사전의 의미부류와 KorLexNoun 1.5의 상위노드 간의 사상을 목표로 전문가의 수작업에 의한 세밀한 사상 방법론(fine-grained mapping method)을 제안한다. 또한 이질적인 두 이종 자원 간의 사상에 있어 각 의미체계의 이질성으로 인해 발생하는 여러 가지 문제점을 살펴보고, 그 해결방안을 제안한다. 본 연구는 세종의미부류체계가 밝히고자 했던 한국어의 의미구조와, Prinston WordNet을 참조로 하여 KorLexNoun에 여전히 영향을 미치고 있는 영어 의미구조를 비교함으로써 공통점과 차이점을 파악할 수 있고, 이를 바탕으로 언어 독립적인 개념체계를 구축하는 데 기여할 수 있다. 또한 향후 KorLex의 용언에 기술되어 있는 문형정보와 세종 전자사전의 용언의 격틀 정보를 통합 구축하여 구문분석에서 이용할 때, 세종 의미부류와 KorLexNoun의 상위노드를 통합 구축함으로써 논항의 일반화된 선택제약규칙의 기술에서 이용될 수 있다. 본 연구에서 제안된 사상방법론은 향후 이종 자원의 자동 사상 연구에서도 크게 기여할 것이다. 아울러 두 이종 자원의 사상을 통해 두 의미체계가 지닌 장점을 극대화하고, 동시에 단점을 상호 보완하여 보다 완전한 언어자원으로써 구문분석이나 의미분석에서 이용될 수 있다.

Recognition of structures in urban environments is a fundamental ability for unmanned ground vehicles. In this paper we propose the geometrical featured voxel which has not only 3-D coordinates but also the type of geometrical properties of point cloud. Instead of dealing with a huge amount of point cloud collected by range sensors in urban, the proposed voxel can efficiently represent and save 3-D urban structures without loss of geometrical properties. We also provide an urban structure classification algorithm by using the proposed voxel and machine learning techniques. The proposed method enables to recognize urban environments around unmanned ground vehicles quickly. In order to evaluate an ability of the proposed map representation and the urban structure classification algorithm, our vehicle equipped with the sensor system collected range data and pose data in campus and experimental results have been shown in this paper.

World Wide Web is not more meaningless sea of information but is becoming the Semantic Web that provides many users with meaningful information. The starting point is the XML and metadata, RDF is a stopover which gives technique to relate arbitrary web resources. And now, the semantic and logic of web resources can be settled in the Ontology. A lot of educational multimedia web resources in Korea have produced their metadata with KERIS's KEM(Korea Educational Metadata). Therefore our country have to start the study of the semantic and logic in web resources. But, many researchers in Korea are more eager to study Dublin Core's DC and SCORM's LOM metadata specification than KEM. Thus the study of method about sharing and integrating these three metadata specifications should be performed before the study of semantic and logic in web resources in Korea. We design the Ontology to integrate these three metadata specifications and implement the prototype system using this Ontology. These three metadata have some elements that have same labels and meanings, and other elements have different labels and same meanings. To match these different labels which have same meanings, we adapted the one-to-one mapping technique in designing our Ontology. This designed Ontology was imported as "integrated schema" in our prototype searching system to integrate three different metadata in databases. Moreover we know that the more specific property design of class in Ontology was needed in order to provide users with more informed searching results such as synonym, antonym, hierarchy and associations.

Recently, there have been increased many 3 dimensional graphic applications in Internet. Thus, a growing number of methods have been proposed for retrieving 3-D graphic data using their 3D features such as color, texture, shape, and spacial relations. However, few researches focus on 3D graphic modeling and database storage techniques. In this paper, we introduce a system that can store 3D graphics data modeled by XML-based 3D graphics markup language, 3DGML, and support content-based retrievals on 3D data by using SQL. We also present a mapping technique of 3DGML to relational database. The mapping process includes the extraction of semantic information from 3DGML and translate it into relational format. Finally, we show examples of SQL queries which use the 3D information contained in a 3D scene such as objects, 3D features, descriptions and scene-object component hierarchy.
