This study investigates the characteristic of the Tsushima Warm Current from an assimilated high resolution global ocean prediction model, $1/12^{\circ}$ Global HYbrid Coordiate Ocean Model (HYCOM). The model results were verified through a comparison with current measurements obtained by acoustic Doppler current profiler (ADCP) mounted on the passenger ferryboat between Busan, Korea, and Hakata, Japan. The annual mean transport of the Tsushima Warm Current was 2.56 Sverdrup (Sv) (1 Sv = $10^6m^3s^{-1}$), which is similar to those from previous studies (Takikawa et al. 1999; Teague et al. 2002). The volume transport time series of the Tsushima Warm Current from HYCOM correlates to a high degree with that from the ADCP observation (the correlation coefficient between the two is 0.82). The spatiotemporal structures of the currents as well as temperature and salinity from HYCOM are comparable to the observed ones.

As the occurrence of a crime is dependent on different factors, their correlations are beyond the ordinary cognitive range. Owing to this limitation, systems face difficulty in correlating various factors, thereby requiring the assistance of artificial intelligence (AI) to overcome such limitations. Therefore, AI has become indispensable for crime prediction. Crimes can cause severe and irrevocable damage to a society. Recently, big data has been introduced for developing highly accurate models for crime prediction. Prediction of night crimes should be given significant consideration, because crimes primarily occur during nights, when the spatiotemporal characteristics become vulnerable to crimes. Many environmental factors that influence crime rate are applied for crime prediction, and their influence on crime rate may differ based on temporal characteristics and the nature of crime. This study aims to identify the environmental factors that influence sex and theft crimes occurring at night and proposes an artificial neural network (ANN) model to predict sex and theft crimes at night in random areas. The crime data of A district in Seoul for 12 years (2004-2015) was used, and environmental factors that influence sex and theft crimes were derived through multiple regression analysis. Two types of crime prediction models were developed: Type A using all environmental factors as input data; Type B with only the significant factors (obtained from regression analysis) as input data. The Type B model exhibited a greater accuracy than Type A, by 3.26 and 9.47 % higher for theft and sex crimes, respectively.

Spatiotemporal changes of brain rhythmic activity at a certain frequency have been usually monitored in real time using scalp potential maps of multi-channel electroencephalography(EEG) or magnetic field maps of magnetoencephalography(MEG). In the present study, we investigate if it is possible to implement a real-time brain activity monitoring system which can monitor spatiotemporal changes of cortical rhythmic activity on a subject's cortical surface, neither on a sensor plane nor on a standard brain model, with a high temporal resolution. In the suggested system, a frequency domain inverse operator is preliminarily constructed, considering the individual subject's anatomical information, noise level, and sensor configurations. Spectral current power at each cortical vertex is then calculated for the Fourier transforms of successive sections of continuous data, when a single frequency or particular frequency band is given. An offline study which perfectly simulated the suggested system demonstrates that cortical rhythmic source changes can be monitored at the cortical level with a maximal delay time of about 200 ms, when 18 channel EEG data are analyzed under Pentium4 3.4GHz environment. Two sets of artifact-free, eye closed, resting EEG data acquired from a dementia patient and a normal male subject were used to show the feasibility of the suggested system. Factors influencing the computational delay are investigated and possible applications of the system are discussed as well.

In this work, we study the problem of privacy-preservation data publishing in moving objects databases. In particular, the trajectory of a mobile user in a plane is no longer a polyline in a two-dimensional space, instead it is a two-dimensional surface of fixed width $2A_{min}$, where $A_{min}$ defines the semi-diameter of the minimum spatial circular extent that must replace the real location of the mobile user on the XY-plane, in the anonymized (kNN) request. The desired anonymity is not achieved and the entire system becomes vulnerable to attackers, since a malicious attacker can observe that during the time, many of the neighbors' ids change, except for a small number of users. Thus, we reinforce the privacy model by clustering the mobile users according to their motion patterns in (u, ${\theta}$) plane, where u and ${\theta}$ define the velocity measure and the motion direction (angle) respectively. In this case, the anonymized (kNN) request looks up neighbors, who belong to the same cluster with the mobile requester in (u, ${\theta}$) space: Thus, we know that the trajectory of the k-anonymous mobile user is within this surface, but we do not know exactly where. We transform the surface's boundary poly-lines to dual points and we focus on the information distortion introduced by this space translation. We develop a set of efficient spatiotemporal access methods and we experimentally measure the impact of information distortion by comparing the performance results of the same spatiotemporal range queries executed on the original database and on the anonymized one.

Traditional approaches to surface moisture problems in the context of aeolian research have focused on the initiation of sand movement, developing various models for predicting threshold velocity on a wet surface. They have been unsatisfactory, however, in explaining field observations because they have not incorporated spatiotemporal variability of surface moisture, the interactions between transported sand grains and surface, and the role of aeolian transport in controlling surface moisture. As Nield (2011) showed, a simplified numerical model can be used to investigate this issue. This research aims to explore the feedback structures between aeolian transport and surface moisture using a modified sand slab model. Key modifications are the introduction of simultaneous updating scheme for all the slabs and moisture-assigning procedures with and without aeolian transport. The major findings are as follows. Moist surface conditions suppress sand slab movement, leading to the development of smaller-scale topography. Available sands for aeolian transport are determined by the vertical patterns of moisture content with its variations from groundwater to the surface. Sand patches on a wet surface act as a localized source area. Sand movement drives immediate changes in surface moisture rather than time-lag reponses, mostly when moist conditions are dominant.

산업 전반에 적용되는 과학, 공학 분야에는 그 목적에 따라 다양한 형태의 정보가 발생한다. 정보는 이용하는 목적에 따란 가공하는 형식과 표현하는 방식이 달라지며, 정보에 직접적으로 접근하는 사용자에게 어떻게 효과적으로 전달할 것인가 하는 문제는 정보 관리 분야에서 매우 중요한 이슈가 되고 있다. 정보를 사용자에게 보다 명확하게 전달하고, 관리하기 위해서는 원천 데이터를 가공하여 가시화(visualization)하는 과정을 거친다. 정보가시화는 원천데이터를 데이터모델로 정리한 후, 가시화구조(visual structure)로 재정의 한다. 실질적인 가시적 결과는 가시화 구조의 데이터들을 정보모델(information model)상에 반영할 때 이루어진다. 본 논문에서는 건물내부에서 진행되는 행사에 대한 시간-공간적인 정보를 정리한 도표 메타포(table metaphor)를 초기 데이터 모델로 사용하여 가시화 하는 과정을 수행한다. 정보 가시화 과정과 저작 과정은 증강현실(augmented reality) 환경에서 이루어진다. 행사가 진행되는 장소의 건물 구조도(map)상에서 각 장소에서 발생하는 정보들을 재배열하고 정리함으로써, 저작자로 하여금 정보 그 자체에 대한 이해뿐만이 아니라, 해당 정보에 대한 공간적인 이해도 함께 가능하게 한다. 이 같은 몰입형(immersive) 저작시스템은 정보에 대한 공간적인 분배가 필요한 저작에서는 매우 유용하며, 저작하는 환경 자체가 가시화의 결과물이 되므로 정보 저작에 대한 가시적 이해를 최대화 시킬 수 있다.

A one-dimensional fluid model has been established for Raman amplification of a short laser pulse in a plasma by a counter-propagating pump. The laser pulse is amplified with a large gain and also may be compressed by nonlinear three-wave Interactions. The spatiotemporal evolutions of the seed and the pump pulses were visualized for linear and nonlinear regimes, and the transition from regular to chaotic behavior of subsidiary pulses was investigated with variation of pump intensity.

Due to the development of information technologies and new businesses related to moving objects, the need for the storage and analysis of moving object data is increasing rapidly. Moving object data have a spatiotemporal nature which is different from typical business data. Therefore, different methods of data storage and analysis are required. This paper proposes a multidimensional data model and data visualization to analyze moving object data efficiently and effectively. We expect that decision makers can understand the movement pattern of moving objects more intuitively through the proposed implementation.

감시 카메라 환경에서 자동으로 그룹 행동을 인식하는 기술이 최근 많은 관심을 받고 있다. 본 논문에서 제안하는 그룹 해동 인식 시스템은 다른 추가 정보 없이 비디오 프레임만을 인풋으로 받아들여, 자동으로 보행자 탐지, 추적, 행동 인식까지 모두 포괄하는 시스템이다. 시공간 모션 패턴을 만들고 연결 요소들로 모델링 한 뒤 Hidden Markov Model (HMM)을 이용해 그룹 행동을 인식한다. 실험 결과, 기본 논문과 비교하였을 때, 비슷한 인식률을 보이면서 수행 시간을 약 25 배 정도로 획기적으로 단축하였다.

This paper presents a comprehensive overview of recent model developments and practical issues in spatial downscaling of coarse resolution satellite-derived products. First, theoretical aspects of spatial downscaling models that have been applied when auxiliary variables are available at a finer spatial resolution are outlined and discussed. Based on a thorough literature survey, the spatial downscaling models are classified into two categories, including regression-based and component decomposition-based approaches, and their characteristics and limitations are then discussed. Second, open issues that have not been fully taken into account and future research directions, including quantification of uncertainty, trend component estimation across spatial scales, and an extension to a spatiotemporal downscaling framework, are discussed. If methodological developments pertaining to these issues are done in the near future, spatial downscaling is expected to play an important role in providing rich thematic information at the target spatial resolution.
