Large-scale three-wheeled cleaning robots are utilized to clean large spaces such as warehouses and manufacturing plants where significant floor contamination occurs. Although there are autonomous cleaning robots, user-operated cleaning robots are often preferred because they are easy to repair and inexpensive. Therefore, workers have to spend extra time on cleaning, which reduces work efficiency. In this paper, we propose an autonomous driving system designed to automate the operation while maintaining the structure of existing cleaning robots. The contributions of this paper are as follows: 1) Hardware modules that control the driving and steering components. 2) A LiDAR-based autonomous driving system and path point generation system considering the mechanical characteristics of the cleaning robot. 3) The proposed system is implemented on an actual cleaning robot and driving tests are performed. As a result, when path planning is performed to cover the cleaning area, the average RMSE for each straight path is 0.0802 m, which is smaller than the minimum cleaning overlap of 0.3 m that occurs during the straight cleaning of the robot. This shows that the proposed system effectively covers the entire cleaning area.

In Suwon, the overall hygiene of the city is threatened by the emergence of the rook(Corvus fugilegus) in the city. Rooks began to appear in November of 2016 and has continued to appear from November to March every year. In order to eradicate or to prepare an alternative habitat for rooks, this study aimed to identify the preferred habitat and specific environmental variables. Therefore, in this work, we aim to understand the predicted distribution of rooks in Suwon City with citizen science and through MaxENT, the most widely utilized habitat modeling using citizen science to analyze the preferred habitat of harmful tides appearing in urban areas. In this study, seven environmental variables were chosen: biotope group complex, building floor, vegetation, euclidean distance from farmland, euclidean distance from streetlamp, and euclidean distance from pole and DEM. Among the estimated models, after the time period of sunrise (08:00~18:00) the contribution percentage were as following: euclidean distance from arable land(39.2%), DEM(25.5%), euclidean distance from streetlamp(22.3%), euclidean distance from pole(7.1%), biotope group complex(4.9%), building floor(1%), vegetation(0%). In the time period after sunset(18:00~08:00) the contribution percentage were as following: biotope group complex(437.4%), euclidean distance from pole(26.8%), DEM(13.4%), euclidean distance from streetlamp(11.8%), euclidean distance from farmland(7.9%), building floor(1.4%), vegetation(1.3%).

화상병은 전정 도구 등에서 장시간 생존이 가능하고 작업 도구를 통해 화상병균이 전파될 수 있다. 특히, 우리나라에서는 꽃이나 어린 과실, 도장지 등을 제거하기 위해 전정 작업이 수시로 이루어지는데 이런 농작업이 화상병 확산의 주요인으로 알려져 있다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 전정 가위에 묻어 있는 화상병균을 완전히 멸균하기 위하여 국내에 유통되는 소독제의 소독 효과를 검증하고 이를 이용하여 효과적인 소독 방법을 구명하였다. 화상병균을 가위 날에 접종 후에 침지 소독할 경우 70% 에탄올 및 1%와 0.2% 차아염소산나트륨의 경우에는 침지 후 10초가 지나면 바로 멸균되는 반면, 30% 이산화염소는 소독 효과가 거의 보이지 않았다. 분무 처리로 소독할 경우에는 70% 에탄올은 분무 1초 후에는 바로 멸균이 되었지만 1%와 0.2% 차아염소산나트륨은 각각 10초와 60초 후에 멸균되었다. 자연적으로 화상병이 발병한 가지를 5회 및 100회 절단한 후 전정 가위 날 표면에 묻어 있는 화상병균에 대한 침지 소독 시간에 따른 제거 효과를 검증한 결과, 70% 에탄올에 30초 동안 침지 처리한 경우 완전히 세균이 멸균되지 않았지만 60초 이상에서는 세균이 멸균되었다. 이런 결과를 볼 때 현장에서 전정 작업 시 전정 가위를 70% 에탄올에 60초 이상 수시로 침지하여 소독할 것을 제안한다.

This study aimed to predict the effects of water ecology on the supply of hydrothermal energy to model a housing complex in Eco Delta Smart Village in Busan. Based on the results, engineering measures were recommended to minimize problems due to possible temperature variations on the supply of hydrothermal energy from the river. The current distribution of fish, benthic macroinvertebrates, and phytoplankton in the Pyeonggang Stream was monitored to determine their effects on water ecology. In the research area, five species and three families of fish were observed. The dominant species was Lepomis macrochirus, and the subdominant species was Carassius auratus. Twenty-five species and 21 families of benthic macroinvertebrates were found. The distribution of aquatic insects was poor in this area. The dominant species were Chironomidae sp., Lymnaea auricularia, Appasus japonicus, and Caridina denticulata denticulata in February, May, July, and October. Dominant phytoplankton were Aulacoseira ambigua and Nitzschia palea in February and May. Microcystis sp. was dominant in July and October. The health of the ecology the Pyeonggang Stream was assessed as D (bad) according to the benthic macroinvertebrate index (BMI). Shifts in the location of the discharge point 150 m downstream from intake points and discharge through embedded rock layer after adding equal amounts of stream water as was taken at the beginning were suggested to minimize water temperature variations due to the application of hydrothermal energy. When the scenario (i.e., quantity of water intake and dilution water, 1,600 m³/d and water temp. difference ±5 ℃) was realized, variations in water temperature were assessed at -0.19 ℃ and 0.59 ℃ during cooling and heating, respectively, at a point 10 m downstream. Water temperatures recorded at -0.20 ℃ and 0.68 ℃ during cooling and heating, respectively, at a point 10 m upstream. All stream water temperatures after the application of hydrothermal energy recovered within 24 hours. Future work on the long-term monitoring of ecosystems is suggested, particularly to analyze the influence of the water environment on hydrothermal energy supply operations.

The RGB Bayer filter system consists of a mosaic of R, G, and B filters on the grid of the photo sensors which typical commercial DSLR (Digital Single Lens Reflex) cameras and CCD cameras are equipped with. Lot of unique astronomical data obtained using an RGB Bayer filter system are available, including transient objects, e.g. supernovae, variable stars, and solar system bodies. The utilization of such data in scientific research requires that reliable photometric transformation methods are available between the systems. In this work, we develop a series of equations to convert the observed magnitudes in the RGB Bayer filter system (RB, GB, and BB) into the Johnson-Cousins BVR filter system (BJ, VJ, and RC). The new transformation equations derive the calculated magnitudes in the Johnson-Cousins filters (BJcal, VJcal, and RCcal) as functions of RGB magnitudes and colors. The mean differences between the transformed magnitudes and original magnitudes, i.e. the residuals, are (BJ - BJcal) = 0.064 mag, (VJ - VJcal) = 0.041 mag, and (RC - RCcal) = 0.039 mag. The calculated Johnson-Cousins magnitudes from the transformation equations show a good linear correlation with the observed Johnson-Cousins magnitudes.

Indirect determination of pan evaporation (PE) has been highly regarded, due to the advantages of intelligent models employed for this objective. This work pursues improving the reliability of a popular intelligent model, namely multi-layer perceptron (MLP) through surmounting its computational knots. Available climatic data of Fresno weather station (California, USA) is used for this study. In the first step, testing several most common trainers of the MLP revealed the superiority of the Levenberg-Marquardt (LM) algorithm. It, therefore, is considered as the classical training approach. Next, the optimum configurations of two metaheuristic algorithms, namely cuttlefish optimization algorithm (CFOA) and teaching-learning-based optimization (TLBO) are incorporated to optimally train the MLP. In these two models, the LM is replaced with metaheuristic strategies. Overall, the results demonstrated the high competency of the MLP (correlations above 0.997) in the presence of all three strategies. It was also observed that the TLBO enhances the learning and prediction accuracy of the classical MLP (by nearly 7.7% and 9.2%, respectively), while the CFOA performed weaker than LM. Moreover, a comparison between the efficiency of the used metaheuristic optimizers showed that the TLBO is a more time-effective technique for predicting the PE. Hence, it can serve as a promising approach for indirect PE analysis.
