The concept of 'Edu-Tech', which is rapidly reorganized around e-Learning, has been spreading along with the development of intelligent information technology according to the fourth industrial revolution such as Artificial Intelligence (AI), Internet of Things (IoT), BigData. Currently, leading companies are conducting online education services, but real-time two-way communication is difficult. In addition, in the case of off-line class, there are many students, and not only the time is limited, but also they often miss the opportunities to ask questions. In order to solve these problems, this paper develops a real - time interactive question and answer management system that can freely questions both on - line and off - line by combining the benefits of offline instant answers and the advantages of online openness. The developed system is a real-time personalized education system that enables the respondent to check the situation of the questioner in real time and provide a customized answer according to the inquirer's request. In addition, by measuring and managing the system usage time in seconds, the questioner and the respondent can efficiently utilize the system.

Purpose: Vital sign are used to help assess the general physical health of a person, give clues to possible diseases, and show progress toward recovery. Researchers are using vital sign data and AI(artificial intelligence) to manage a variety of diseases and predict mortality. In order to analyze vital sign data using AI, it is important to select and extract vital sign data suitable for research purposes. Methods: We developed a method to visualize vital sign and early warning scores by processing retrospective vital sign data collected from EMR(electronic medical records) and patient monitoring devices. The vital sign data used for development were obtained using the open EMR big data MIMIC-III and the wearable patient monitoring device(CareTaker). Data processing and visualization were developed using Python. We used the development results with machine learning to process the prediction of mortality in ICU patients. Results: We calculated NEWS(National Early Warning Score) to understand the patient's condition. Vital sign data with different measurement times and frequencies were sampled at equal time intervals, and missing data were interpolated to reconstruct data. The normal and abnormal states of vital sign were visualized as color-coded graphs. Mortality prediction result with processed data and machine learning was AUC of 0.892. Conclusion: This visualization method will help researchers to easily understand a patient's vital sign status over time and extract the necessary data.

Object recognition is to identify the location and class of a specific object by analyzing the given image when a specific image is input. One of the fields in which object recognition technology is actively applied in recent years is autonomous vehicles, and this paper describes the trend of image-based object recognition artificial intelligence technology in autonomous vehicles. The image-based object detection algorithm has recently been narrowed down to two methods (a single-step detection method and a two-step detection method), and we will analyze and organize them around this. The advantages and disadvantages of the two detection methods are analyzed and presented, and the YOLO/SSD algorithm belonging to the single-step detection method and the R-CNN/Faster R-CNN algorithm belonging to the two-step detection method are analyzed and described. This will allow the algorithms suitable for each object recognition application required for autonomous driving to be selectively selected and R&D.

Robot Process Automation (RPA) is a computer technology called Robotic Process Automation, a form of business process automation based on the concept of software robots or artificial intelligence (AI) walkers. In general, in traditional workflow automation tools, software developers design software that creates a set of actions to automate tasks and interfaces for the back-end systems using internal APIs or dedicated script languages. However, in RPA software, automation can be implemented by configuring an operating processor as if the general user is directly performing the task of the application. In other words, it can be said that it is a suitable development method for automating simply repetitive tasks rather than developing specific programs in which all necessary functions are implemented, as in general software development. Thus, this is more appropriate for configuring and automating RPA software in traditional manufacturing companies that are not easy to develop and apply smart factories or high-end AI software. Therefore, this research aims to analyze the requirements required at the actual manufacturing companies, focusing on the manufacturer's case in Changwon, Gyeongsangnam-do, called SinceWin Co., Ltd., and to examine the possibility of RPA software in the manufacturing companies by implementing actual RPA software that supports office automation. Through the research, it was confirmed that the actually implemented RPA software met the requirements of the company and helped manufacturer practice significantly by automating the parts that were worked error-prone and manually periodically.

Recently, research and system using AI is rapidly increasing in various fields. Smart farm using artificial intelligence and information communication technology is also being studied in agriculture. In addition, data-based precision agriculture is being commercialized by convergence various advanced technology such as autonomous driving, satellites, and big data. In Korea, the number of commercialization cases of facility agriculture among smart agriculture is increasing. However, research and investment are being biased in the field of facility agriculture. The gap between research and investment in facility agriculture and open-air agriculture continues to increase. The fields of fruit trees and plant factories have low research and investment. There is a problem that the big data collection and utilization system is insufficient. In this paper, we are proposed the system for determining the fruit tree growth stage using a deep learning-based object detection model. The system was proposed as a hybrid app for use in agricultural sites. In addition, we are implemented an object detection function for the fruit tree growth stage determine.

As deep learning-based autonomous driving technology develops, artificial intelligence models for various purposes have been studied. Based on these studies, several models were used simultaneously to develop autonomous driving systems. It can occur by increasing hardware resource consumption. We propose a multi-tasks model using a shared backbone to solve this problem. This can solve the increase in the number of backbones for using AI models. As a result, in the proposed lightweight model, the model parameters could be reduced by more than 50% compared to the existing model, and the speed could be improved. In addition, each lane can be classified through lane detection using the instance segmentation method. However, further research is needed on the decrease in accuracy compared to the existing model.

With the recent application of deep learning to Natural Language Processing (NLP), the performance of NLP has improved significantly and NLP is emerging as a core competency of organizations. However, when encountering NLP use cases that are sporadically reported through various online and offline channels, it is often difficult to come up with a big picture of how to understand and interpret them or how to connect them to business. This study presents a framework for systematically analyzing NLP use cases, considering the characteristics of NLP techniques applicable to almost all industries and business functions, environmental changes in the era of the Fourth Industrial Revolution, and the effectiveness of adopting NLP reflecting all business functional areas. Through solving research questions based on the framework, the usefulness of it is validated. First, by accumulating NLP use cases and pivoting them around the business function dimension, we derive how NLP techniques are used in each business functional area. Next, by synthesizing related surveys and reports to the accumulated use cases, we draw implications for each business function and major NLP techniques. This work promotes the creation of innovative business scenarios and provides multilateral implications for the adoption of NLP by systematically viewing NLP techniques, industries, and business functional areas. The use case analysis framework proposed in this study presents a new perspective for research on new technology use cases. It also helps explore strategies that can dramatically improve organizational performance through a holistic approach that encompasses all business functional areas.

Virtual humans are implemented with dedicated modeling tools like Unity 3D Engine in virtual space (virtual reality, mixed reality, metaverse, etc.). Various human modeling tools have been introduced to implement virtual human-like appearance, voice, expression, and behavior similar to real people, and virtual humans implemented via these tools can communicate with users to some extent. However, most of the virtual humans so far have stayed unimodal using only text or speech. As AI technologies advance, the outdated machine-centered dialogue system is now changing to a human-centered, natural multi-modal system. By using several pre-trained networks, we implemented an emotion-based multi-modal dialogue system, which generates human-like utterances and displays appropriate facial expressions in real-time.

As the technology of machine learning and deep learning became common, it began to be applied to research on anomaly(abnormal) detection of industrial control systems. In Korea, the HAI dataset was developed and published to activate artificial intelligence research for abnormal detection of industrial control systems, and an AI contest for detecting industrial control system security threats is being conducted. Most of the anomaly detection studies have been to create a learning model with improved performance through the ensemble model method, which is applied either by modifying the existing deep learning algorithm or by applying it together with other algorithms. In this study, a study was conducted to improve the performance of anomaly detection with a post-processing method that detects abnormal data and corrects the labeling results, rather than the learning algorithm and data pre-processing process. Results It was confirmed that the results were improved by about 10% or more compared to the anomaly detection performance of the existing model.
