  • 본 논문에서는 실시간 동적 환경에 효과적인 L-CAA 에이전트 구조를 제안한다. L-CAA 에이전트 구조는 변화하는 환경에 대한 적응성을 높이기 위해, 선행 연구를 통해 개발된 행위기반 에이전트 구조인 CAA에 강화학습 기능을 추가하여 확장한 것이다. 안정적인 성능을 위해 L-CAA 구조에서는 행위 선택과 실행을 학습에 전적으로 의존하지 않고 학습을 보조적으로 이용한다. L-CAA에서 행위 선택 메커니즘은 크게 두 단계로 나뉜다. 첫 번째 단계에서는 사용자가 미리 정의한 각 행위의 적용 가능 조건과 효용성을 검사함으로써 행위 라이브러리로부터 실행할 행위들을 추출한다. 하지만 첫 번째 단계에서 다수의 행위가 추출되면, 두 번째 단계에서는 강화학습의 도움을 받아 이들 중에서 실행 할 하나의 행위를 선택한다. 즉, 강화학습을 통해 갱신된 각 행위들의 Q 함수값을 서로 비교함으로써, 가장 큰 기대 보상값을 가진 행위를 선택하여 실행한다. 또한 L-CAA에서는 실행 중인 행위의 유지 가능 조건을 지속적으로 검사하여 환경의 동적 변화로 인해 일부 조건이 만족되지 않는 경우가 발생하면 현재 행위의 실행을 즉시 종료할 수 있다. 그 뿐 아니라, L-CAA는 행위 실행 중에도 효용성이 더 높은 다른 행위가 발생하면 현재의 행위를 일시 정지하였다가 복귀하는 기능도 제공한다. 본 논문에서는 L-CAA 구조의 효과를 분석하기 위해, 대표적인 동적 가상환경인 Unreal Tournament 게임에서 자율적으로 동작하는 L-CAA 기반의 에이전트를 구현하고, 이를 이용한 성능 실험을 전개해본다.

  • This study was undertaken to investigate the general characteristics of students, which include the degree of satisfaction, motives of admission, the recognition of advantages and disadvantages, opinion of students on self-directed learning, and planning and anticipatory effects after graduation. Data was collected through a questionnaire survey over a period of four months, from May 1997 to August 1997. The subjects used for this study consisted of 322 RN students sampled from six RN-to-BSN programs in Korea using the census sampling method. Statistical methods employed for this study included discriptive statistics, M ANOVA, and F-test. The results of the study are as follows 1. The RN students' motives of admission to RN-to-BSN programs were ‘for personal advancement’, ‘to earn a BSN degree’, and ‘for professional development’ in this order. 2. The RN students' responses to the advantages of RN-to-BSN programs were ‘acquisition of new knowledge and a BSN degree’ and ‘to gain professional thinking and a broader view’, while as the disadvantages of RN-to-BSN programs were ‘geographical isolation of institutions’, ‘limitation of information’, and ‘underdeveloped school environments’ in this order. 3. The survey based on opinions toward self-directed learning showed that there was a need of detailed guidelines for self-directed learning. Most agreed that it was a very effective learning method for a RN student, and the self-directed learning method Increases motives for learning. 4. The students' anticipatory effect after graduation were ‘self-achievement’, ‘development of professional skills’, and ‘admission to post-graduate school or programs to study abroad’. 5. The students were very satisfied with the quality of faculty members, and satisfied with the quality of lectures and teaching. However, students were unsatisfied with rented lecture rooms, and very unsatisfied with self-directed learning methods. 6. School nurses showed higher statistical significances in the need for teaching material and anticipatory effect after graduation than other RN students working in hospitals and public health agencies. Also, school nurses, public health nurses, and industry nurses showed higher statistical significances in motives of admission than RN students working in hospitals. Further more, staff nurses, school nurses, and industry nurses showed higher levels of satisfaction toward a RN-to-BSN programs than nurses in higher positions, such as administrators or directors of nursing. 7 City residents were more satisfied with RN-to-BSN programs than rural residents. Otherwise, the rural residents had higher motives for admission, a bigger need for teaching materials, and recognition of the disadvantages of RN-to-BSN programs than city residents. Finally, RN students who earned below a monthly income of ₩1,000,000 showed higher motivation for admission than those who earned more than ₩1,000,000.

  • In this paper, we propose a layer structure of a pest image classifier model using CNN (Convolutional Neural Network) and background removal image processing algorithm for improving classification accuracy in order to build a smart monitoring system for pine wilt pest control. In this study, we have constructed and trained a CNN classifier model by collecting image data of pine wilt pest mediators, and experimented to verify the classification accuracy of the model and the effect of the proposed classification algorithm. Experimental results showed that the proposed method successfully detected and preprocessed the region of the object accurately for all the test images, resulting in showing classification accuracy of about 98.91%. This study shows that the layer structure of the proposed CNN classifier model classified the targeted pest image effectively in various environments. In the field test using the Smart Trap for capturing the pine wilt pest mediators, the proposed classification algorithm is effective in the real environment, showing a classification accuracy of 88.25%, which is improved by about 8.12% according to whether the image cropping preprocessing is performed. Ultimately, we will proceed with procedures to apply the techniques and verify the functionality to field tests on various sites.

  • 본 연구는 현재 정보통신기술 시대에 요구하는 문제해결 능력을 갖춘 몽골의 인재를 양성하기 위하여 효율적으로 학습할 수 있도록 하기 위한 방안으로 몽골 공학대학에서 적합한 Blended PBL 모형을 제시한다. BPBL은 학습자 중심의 교육 방법이다. 현재 몽골에서 빠르게 변화하는 교육환경과 학생의 요구에 부응하기 위해 공학 교수법의 변화가 필요하다. 따라서 몽골 공학 교육의 발전을 위한 BPBL 학습을 도입하며 공학 교수자들에게 더 많은 교육의 기능성을 제공 할 것이다. 최근에는 몽골에서 대학 내에 '교수학습센터'를 설립하여 '가르치는 방법'에 대한 교육과 지원을 교수자들에게 제공하고 있지만, 아직도 단편적이고 일회적인 특강 형식의 지원이 대부분이다. 이런 이유로 많은 교수들은 '그저 자신이 배운 방식대로' 가르친다. 아직도 공학 교수방법은 교수자 중심으로 이루어지고 있다. 앞으로 급변하는 미래 정보사회를 전망할 때, 몽골공과대학의 목표해야 할 기본적인 방향은, 규제의 철폐, 완화를 통해서 진정으로 풍요롭고 활력 있는 사회를 형성하고 있으며 최근의 공과대학 강사와 사회는 익숙한 구식 방법 말고 다른 공학 교육 방법을 요구하고 있다. 새로운 공학 교육 방법의 개발에 효과적인 엔지니어링 전략을 사용하는 것은 성공으로 이어질 것입니다.

  • With information technology's rapid development, the Internet faces serious security problems. Studies have shown that malware has become a primary means of attacking the Internet. Therefore, adversarial samples have become a vital breakthrough point for studying malware. By studying adversarial samples, we can gain insights into the behavior and characteristics of malware, evaluate the performance of existing detectors in the face of deceptive samples, and help to discover vulnerabilities and improve detection methods for better performance. However, existing adversarial sample generation methods still need help regarding escape effectiveness and mobility. For instance, researchers have attempted to incorporate perturbation methods like Fast Gradient Sign Method (FGSM), Projected Gradient Descent (PGD), and others into adversarial samples to obfuscate detectors. However, these methods are only effective in specific environments and yield limited evasion effectiveness. To solve the above problems, this paper proposes a malware adversarial sample generation method (PixGAN) based on the pixel attention mechanism, which aims to improve adversarial samples' escape effect and mobility. The method transforms malware into grey-scale images and introduces the pixel attention mechanism in the Deep Convolution Generative Adversarial Networks (DCGAN) model to weigh the critical pixels in the grey-scale map, which improves the modeling ability of the generator and discriminator, thus enhancing the escape effect and mobility of the adversarial samples. The escape rate (ASR) is used as an evaluation index of the quality of the adversarial samples. The experimental results show that the adversarial samples generated by PixGAN achieve escape rates of 97%, 94%, 35%, 39%, and 43% on the Random Forest (RF), Support Vector Machine (SVM), Convolutional Neural Network (CNN), Convolutional Neural Network and Recurrent Neural Network (CNN_RNN), and Convolutional Neural Network and Long Short Term Memory (CNN_LSTM) algorithmic detectors, respectively.

  • In the past, design has been recognized as a means to determine colors, shapes, and functions Recently, however, it has been accepted in a wider sense, namely designing the entire service, including product and user experience design. In this way, in addition to creativity and expressive power that designers have as their main competence, according to the expansion of this design object, designers are required to have comprehensive abilities in related fields and accompanying technical professional abilities. If designing as a technology application as a direction toward this situation, design education can be carried out by approaching technology as a method of expression or design subject. It can also be an effective alternative towards improving the understanding of technology. Meanwhile, many small microcontroller board products with advanced functions and multi-functional specialized programming integrated development environments (IDEs) are becoming widespread due to their open source, low cost, and scalable features. However, students in the design department who lack the basic knowledge of science and engineering have difficulties learning, which requires considerable time and is required for practical use. From this point of view, we have made advancements in the technical understanding of design education by conducting fundamental research to the effectiveness of microcontroller-based prototyping tools as means of expression. We also conducted basic education of microcontroller boards for a certain period of time on students who majored in design in conjunction with the basic survey and investigated the obstacle factors using a questionnaire. Through these surveys, we have confirmed the necessity of designing microcontroller boards of low difficulty, which simplify the coding process that can act as a barrier in difficulty for design students to apply smoothly in design education. In addition, we intend to carry out a basic study on the guideline of microcontroller design for design education and composition of education programs.

  • The birth of the scientific revolution, brought forth by Vesalius and Copernicus in 1543, marked the beginning of a new age. However, the changes such as treatment effectiveness, survival rate, prevalence of specific diseases, etc. had not yet become clear during the 16th century. In the early 17th century, Boerhaave emphasized bedside teaching and practice. His attitude influenced numerous students and educators, so many medical students visited hospital wards where he worked. From the late 18th to 19th centuries, Jenner's smallpox vaccination, Pasteur's anthrax and rabies vaccinations, and Koch's four postulates used to detect pathogens were developed using the scientific research method, which initiated big changes for medicine. Flexner, credited for reporting the new medical education system, adopted scientific medicine. He believed medical students must study basic medical science since it could be the foundation of clinical medicine and lead to a revolution in the field. He proposed a new medical curriculum composed of two-years of basic medicine and two-years of clinical medicine, which has been used more than 100 years. During the late 20th century, bedside teaching rounds decreased gradually as scientific medicine has become popular. Many medical educators in many articles have proposed bedside education as an effective method for medical learning. Despite the advent of the age of artificial intelligence and the changing of medical environments in the near future, bedside education will be more useful and important for medical students, educators, and patients as it is a traditional method and essential for patients who desire a more personal approach.

  • Because students majoring in construction-related fields must develop a broad repository of knowledge and skills, effective transferal of these is the primary focus of most academic programs. While inculcation of this body of knowledge is certainly critical, actual construction projects are complicated ventures that involve levels of risk and uncertainty, such as resistant neighboring communities, unforeseen weather conditions, escalating material costs, labor shortages and strikes, accidents on jobsites, challenges with emerging forms of technology, etc. Learning how to develop a level of discernment about potential ways to handle such uncertainty often takes years of costly trial-and-error in the proverbial "school of hard knocks." There is therefore a need to proactively expedite the development of a sharpened intuition when making decisions. The AGC Education and Research Foundation case study committee was formed to address this need. Since its inception in 2011, 14 freely downloadable case studies have thus far been jointly developed by an academics and industry practitioners to help educators elicit varied responses from students about potential ways to respond when facing an actual project dilemma. AGC case studies are typically designed to focus on a particular concern and topics have thus far included: ethics, site logistics planning, financial management, prefabrication and modularization, safety, lean practices, preconstruction planning, subcontractor management, collaborative teamwork, sustainable construction, mobile technology, and building information modeling (BIM). This session will include an overview of the history and intent of the AGC case study program, as well as lively interactive demonstrations and discussions on how case studies can be used both by educators within a typical academic setting, as well as by industry practitioners seeking a novel tool for their in-house training programs.

  • 본 논문에서는 시야의 좌측과 우측만 가리는 시야 가리개를 이용하여 주변 시야 가림에 따른 집중력 향상 효과에 대한 연구를 수행하였다. 사용한 시야 가리개는 가로와 세로 5 cm × 4.8 cm 의 사다리꼴 모양으로 안경의 좌측과 우측에 고정 클립으로 부착할 수 있도록 하였다. 재질은 검정색의 폴리프로필렌(Polyprolylene)소재를 이용하였으며 클립을 포함하여 무게는 2.3 gram이었다. 건강한 20대 대학생 50명을 대상으로 15일간 시야 가리개를 사용하도록 한 후 정성평가와 정량평가를 수행하였다. 정성평가는 집중력 향상과 시야 가리개의 구조에 대한 설문조사로 진행하였다. 정량평가를 위하여 주의력 집중이 필요한 학습 동영상을 시청하도록 하면서 뇌파를 측정하였고 전두엽(frontal lobe) 영역인 F4 위치에 대한 Mid β 밴드(15~20Hz) 신호의 파워(power)와 ERD/S 분석을 수행하였다. 분석 결과 50명 중 80%인 40명이 시야 가리개를 착용하였을 때 집중력이 향상되었다고 보고하였다. 정량평가 결과 시야 가리개를 착용하고 동영상을 시청하였을 때 ERS peak(p=.023)와 ERD+ERS peak 값이 유의(p=.017)한 차이를 나타내었다. 결론적으로 좌측과 우측의 시야 가리개만을 사용하여도 집중력이 향상되는 결과를 도출하였다. 시야를 모두 가리는 덮개 형태 또는 시야의 상측과 하측을 가리지 않더라도 집중력을 향상시킬 수 있기 때문에 향후 간편한 방법으로 집중이 필요한 다양한 환경에서 활용이 가능할 것으로 기대된다.
