Historical data from comparable projects can serve as benchmarking data for an ongoing project's planning during the project scoping phase. As project owners typically store substantial amounts of data generated throughout project life cycles in digitized databases, they can capture appropriate data to support various project planning activities by accessing digital databases. One of the most important work tasks in this process is identifying one or more past projects comparable to a new project. The uniqueness and complexity of construction projects along with unorganized data, impede the reliable identification of comparable past projects. A project scope document provides the preliminary overview of a project in terms of the extent of the project and project requirements. However, narratives and free-formatted descriptions of project scopes are a significant and time-consuming barrier if a human needs to review them and determine similar projects. This study proposes an Artificial Intelligence-driven model for analyzing project scope descriptions and evaluating project similarity using natural language processing (NLP) techniques. The proposed algorithm can intelligently a) extract major work activities from unstructured descriptions held in a database and b) quantify similarities by considering the semantic features of texts representing work activities. The proposed model enhances historical comparable project identification by systematically analyzing project scopes.

This paper proposes an ontology-based context aware system model for the purpose of storing and managing agricultural products using ubiquitous sensors to share and distribute information. In these days, according to penetrating ubiquitous technologies into our way of life, the importance of information is increasing gradually. The importance of ontology in a domain is getting as well. Therefore, this paper designs and build an ontology-based agricultural products warehouse model using context aware state information obtained by using wireless sensors. Also, it shows the result described by graphical ontology results to share common understanding on the structure of context information among users, devices and services to enable semantic interoperability owing to the information of the context aware state of the warehouse.

Online product reviews are a vital source for companies in that they contain consumers' opinions of products. The earlier methods of opinion mining, which involve drawing semantic information from text, have been mostly applied in one dimension. This is not sufficient in itself to elicit reviewers' comprehensive views on products. In this paper, we propose a novel approach in opinion mining by projecting online consumers' reviews in a multidimensional framework to improve review interpretation of products. First of all, we set up a new framework consisting of six dimensions based on a marketing management theory. To calculate the distances of review sentences and each dimension, we embed words in reviews utilizing Google's pre-trained word2vector model. We classified each sentence of the reviews into the respective dimensions of our new framework. After the classification, we measured the sentiment degrees for each sentence. The results were plotted using a radar graph in which the axes are the dimensions of the framework. We tested the strategy on Amazon product reviews of the iPhone and Galaxy smartphone series with a total of around 21,000 sentences. The results showed that the radar graphs visually reflected several issues associated with the products. The proposed method is not for specific product categories. It can be generally applied for opinion mining on reviews of any product category.

To use multimedia contents in restricted resources, any management method of MPEG-7 documents is needed. At this time, some XML clustering methods can be used. But, to improve the performance efficiency better, new clustering method which uses the characteristics of MPEG-7 documents is needed. In this paper, we suggest a new clustering method to manage MPEG-7 documents efficiently, which uses some semantic relationships among elements of MPEG-7 documents. And also we compare it to the existed clustering methods.

In this paper, a user-friendly mobile photo album system and albuming functions to support it are introduced. Stand-alone implementation in a mobile device is considered. The main idea of user-friendly photo browsing for albuming functions is to enable users to organize and browse their photos along semantically meaningful axes of events, personal identities, and categories. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method would be sufficiently useful and efficient for browsing personal photos in mobile environment.

The main purpose of this study was to investigate preschoolers understanding whether thinking influences emotion with cognitive cueing. The subjects were 75 preschoolers of the J, Y, & K kindergartens located in Taegu. They were 4-(12 boys and 13 girls), 5-(12 boy and 13 girls), and 6-years(13 boys and 12 girls) old. The instruments were 4 stories and 11 pictures per a story used in Lagattuta, Wellman & Flavell(1997). The responses given from preschoolers were classified in terms of cognitive cueing response. The major results showed that an initial understanding of cognitive cueing in some preschoolers revealed the evidence of significantly developmental changes during the preschool years. Cognitive cueing responses were significantly different according to thinking prompt which is the question to help preschoolers explanations. This result suggested that the instruments of measurement for preschoolers should be improved as possible as they can understand.

This study was to analyze amenity of the port landscapes for North port, South port, and Gamcheon port in Busan. Amenity related variables came from Semantic Differential(SD) method and then were conducted by the factor analysis. Multiple regression was done for the relationship between the amenity and factors. The result found 3 factors, including dynamics, stability, and familarity. Much importance was placed on dynamics among them. Therefore, building port landscapes and their image attracting tourists should consider dynamics in terms of port landscape plan and tourist attraction development for amenity quality management.

The purpose of this paper is to propose a securely personalized context-aware cooperative query that supports a multi-level data abstraction hierarchy and conceptual distance metric among data values, while considering privacy concerns around user context awareness. The conceptual distance expresses a semantic similarity among data values with a quantitative measure, and thus the conceptual distance enables query results to be ranked. To show the feasibility of the methodology proposed in this paper we have implemented a prototype system in the area of site search in a large-scale shopping mall.

상황 정보 관리 시스템은 외부에서 입력된 상황 정보의 숨겨진 의미를 파악하여 상황인지 에이전트 및 상황인지 브로커가 효과적으로 상황정보를 획득하도록 한다. 본 논문에서는 외부 환경으로부터 받은 상황정보의 숨겨진 의미를 파악하기 위해 DL 추론과 시간적 추론을 적용한 상황 정보 관리 시스템을 제안한다. 이를 위해서 3가지 부분에 초점을 두었다. 첫 번째, 외부에서 입력된 상황 정보를 효율적으로 표현하고 여러 에이전트간의 상황 정보 공유가 가능하도록 온톨로지 모델을 적용한다. 온톨로지로 표현된 상황정보는 정보의 속성을 제약함으로써 숨겨진 상황 정보를 추론할 수 있도록 해준다. 두 번째로 상황 정보의 관계를 추론할 수 있도록 서술 논리(Description Logic)를 적용한다. 마지막으로 상황 정보의 시간적 관계를 추론할 수 있도록 시간 논리(Temporal Logic)을 적용한다. 따라서 본 논문에서의 최종 목표는 상황 정보 관리 시스템 연구를 통해 상황인지 에이전트 및 상황인지 브로커에 활용이 가능한 온톨로지 기반 추론 기능을 보유하는 지능형 모듈의 기본 프레임워크를 구축하는 것이다.
