  • 지능적인 감시 체계에 대한 필요성이 증대됨에 따라 많은 곳에서 지능화된 군중에 대한 모니터링을 요구하고 있다. 이는 비단 철도 분야에 있어 예외가 되지 않으며, 철도 서비스 구간 내에서의 필요성 또한 증대되고 있다. 철도 승강장 내에는 보안 감시에 사용되는 CCTV가 설치되어 있다. 이렇게 설치되어 있는 CCTV를 통해 철도 승강장의 영상 정보를 취득할 수 있으며 이것을 이용하여 군중 밀도 추정에 도움이 될 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 철도 승강장 내 군중 밀도를 군중의 움직임으로부터 발생되는 모션벡터를 검출하여 군중 밀도와 모션 벡터와의 상관관계에 대해 연구하였다.

  • 본 논문은 대형 건축물 내에서의 보행자 대피 시뮬레이션을 위해, 광범위한 네트워크 모델과 세밀한 네트워크 모델을 통합하는 방법과보행자가 자연스럽게 벽이나 장애물을 피하면서 이동할 수 있도록 하는 개선된 보행자 이동 모델을 제안한다. 제안하는 네트워크 모델을 통해 기존의 광범위 네트워크 모델에서 분석할 수 없는 보행자 개개인의 이동정보를 세밀한 네트워크보다 적은 양의 연산으로 계산할 수 있었고, 개선된 보행자 이동 모델을 통해 보행자가 자연스럽게 벽이나 장애물을 피하면서 이동할 수 있도록 하였다. 제안하는 방법을 대형 건축물인 코엑스 몰에 적용하여 대피 시뮬레이션을 수행한 결과, 3000명의 보행자에 대해 초당 10번 이상의 시뮬레이션 정보를 계산할 수 있었고, 대피 시의 방향 유도에 따른 대피 시간을 확인할 수 있었다.

  • Ideation is a process of generating new ideas or solutions using online crowd-sourcing technologies. This process has the potential to change the ways by which government agencies innovate and solve problems. Although increasingly more government agencies are implementing online ideation programs to tap into their employees' ideas and creativity, little is known about the unique challenges and effective practices of such programs. Thus, many government agencies are undergoing trial and error and often reinventing the wheel. This research aims to address this problem. By analyzing a focus group session and four cases of U.S. federal government ideation programs designed for their employees, this research identifies important organizational and technological challenges and effective practices. Furthermore, effective practices are grouped into different phases of ideation process and strategic vs. tactical levels to provide more meaningful and actionable insights. This research is an important step towards building a theoretical foundation for government ideation programs. The implications and limitations of this study are discussed.

  • Demand for air transportation in Korea keeps increasing, and the number of airport operations also grows as a result. The major two airports in Korea, Incheon International Airport and Gimpo International Airport, share the metropolitan airspace, which is crowd with air traffic. As air traffic increases in the metropolitan airspace, the demand for the airport operations would outnumber the capacities of these airports. However, there is a room to efficiently manage the shortage of the airport capacity due to the different distributions of operations in these airports. This study presents a dynamic slot allocation that allows exchanging slots according to the traffic demand. The dynamic allocation mitigates the airports' capacity problem but the airspace capacity itself should be increased in order to tackle the problem fundamentally.

  • The CCTV, closed circuit television, system is the most popular method to monitor some specific area. The CCTV-based monitoring system is composed of a lot of cameras installed the areas, and monitors to display the vision through the cameras. However, these systems have limitations to prevent some problems or to cope with the problems promptly, because they can carry out only the function that shows us the analogue images of the cameras. Especially, urban transit service area is the space where many people crowd in all at the same time and the space is not only wide but also distributed sporadically. This paper presents the efficient plan for video-based monitoring system to monitor urban transit service area. To build the efficient monitoring system, it is necessary to devide the monitoring area to appropriate sectors that should be composed to be displayed at a time. If the proposed method is used to construct the video-based monitoring system, the operating officers in the urban transit have the more direct and real images.

  • In order to estimate people crowdedness in public area, the texture based method or motion based method can be used. In this paper we have proposed a mixed method. By designating the region of interest, we made the degree of crowdedness more accurate. The feature normalization also reduced the image distortion which results from difference of camera angle. The proposed system was optimized to real time embedded hardware system.

  • The Intelligent Space(ISpace) provides challenging research fields for surveillance, human-computer interfacing, networked camera conferencing, industrial monitoring or service and training applications. ISpace is the space where many intelligent devices, such as computers and sensors, are distributed. According to the cooperation of many intelligent devices, the environment, it is very important that the system knows the location information to offer the useful services. In order to achieve these goals, we present a method for representing, tracking and human following by fusing distributed multiple vision systems in ISpace, with application to pedestrian tracking in a crowd. And the article presents the integration of color distributions into particle filtering. Particle filters provide a robust tracking framework under ambiguity conditions. We propose to track the moving objects by generating hypotheses not in the image plan but on the top-view reconstruction of the scene. Comparative results on real video sequences show the advantage of our method for multi-object tracking. Also, the method is applied to the intelligent environment and its performance is verified by the experiments.

  • 본 논문에서는 영상 감시 등의 응용을 위해 영상에서 자동으로 사람 수를 측정하는 군중 수 측정 방법을 제안한다. 제안한 방법에서는 전처리 과정으로 전경영상과 경계영상을 검출하여 객체의 픽셀 크기 히스토그램과 경계 방향 히스토그램을 특징으로 이용하고 카메라 투영행렬을 통해 픽셀 크기와 경계 방향에 대한 특징 정규화를 수행한다. 실제 사람 수와 얻어진 특징 히스토그램 간의 선형성은 사상 함수의 구성에 적용되며, 훈련 데이터를 통해 얻어진 사상 함수는 사람 수 측정에 이용되었다. 제안한 방법의 성능은 건물 내에서 촬영된 영상에 대한 실험 결과로 나타났으며 이 방법이 영상 감시 분야에 다양하게 적용될 수 있음이 확인되었다.

  • In considering the issue of safely during emergency building evacuations, it is important to be able to make accurate predictions about evacuation conditions and to be able to assess safety levels. Simulation techniques are often used to make predictions regarding evacuation conditions. The two main types of prediction models are crowd flow models and discrete models. We have developed an evacuation simulation system based on the discrete model which attempts to address the implementation problems of existing evacuation models. Our model incorporates characteristics such as evacuee profiles and spatial considerations, and is capable of dynamically predicting the behavior of individual evacuees. The simulation system is primarily designed for buildings in which many people are incapacitated and require helpers in order to evacuate, such as hospitals and facilities fur the elderly. We show the results that the evacuation simulation system was used to perform two trial simulations.

  • Foresight, a major methodological tool in the STI policy toolbox, has recently featured new directions in methodological development, becoming influenced by progress in information and communication technologies and online tools. However, no overview of these directions has been available so far. Based on a literature review, an interactive workshop, and an international expert survey as well as expert interviews, the research presented here attempts to shed light onto some of the relevant issues by providing a structured overview of recent changes in order to further the debate on the future directions of methodological development in foresight. The paper outlines four clusters of emerging approaches in foresight:Integrated qualitative and quantitative approaches, IT-based and automated foresight, experiential foresight including new forms of communication and interaction such as visualization and gaming, and open and crowd-sourced approaches. The benefits and challenges of the approaches known so far are categorized and summarized, and areas of potential use for each of the clusters in STI contexts are identified.
