In modern society, smart home has become a part of people's daily life. But traditional smart home systems often have problems such as security, data centralization and easy tampering, so a blockchain is an emerging technology that solves the problems. This paper proposes a blockchain-based smart home system which consists in a home and a blockchain network part. The blockchain network with 8 nodes is implemented by HyperLeger Fabric platform on Docker. ECC(Elliptic Curve Cryptography) technology is used for data transmission security and RBAC(role-based access control) manages the certificates of network members. Raft consensus algorithm maintains data consistency across all nodes in a distributed system and reduces block generation time. The query and data submission are controlled by the smart contract which allows nodes to safely and efficiently access smart home data. The experimental results show that the proposed system maintains a stable average query and submit time of 84.5 [ms] and 93.67 [ms] under high concurrent accesses, respectively and the transmission data is secured through simulated packet capture attacks.

Purpose: The study aims were to develop a wearable inertial sensor-based gait analysis device that uses machine learning algorithms, and to validate this novel device using temporal gait parameters. Methods: Thirty-four healthy young participants (22 male, 12 female, aged 25.76 years) with no musculoskeletal disorders were asked to walk at three different speeds. As they walked, data were simultaneously collected by a motion capture system and inertial measurement units (Reseed®). The data were sent to a machine learning algorithm adapted to the wearable inertial sensor-based gait analysis device. The validity of the newly developed instrument was assessed by comparing it to data from the motion capture system. Results: At normal speeds, intra-class correlation coefficients (ICC) for the temporal gait parameters were excellent (ICC [2, 1], 0.99~0.99), and coefficient of variation (CV) error values were insignificant for all gait parameters (0.31~1.08%). At slow speeds, ICCs for the temporal gait parameters were excellent (ICC [2, 1], 0.98~0.99), and CV error values were very small for all gait parameters (0.33~1.24%). At the fastest speeds, ICCs for temporal gait parameters were excellent (ICC [2, 1], 0.86~0.99) but less impressive than for the other speeds. CV error values were small for all gait parameters (0.17~5.58%). Conclusion: These results confirm that both the wearable inertial sensor-based gait analysis device and the machine learning algorithms have strong concurrent validity for temporal variables. On that basis, this novel wearable device is likely to prove useful for establishing temporal gait parameters while assessing gait.

Sign language was designed for the deaf and dumb people to allow them to communicate with others and connect to the society. However, sign language is uncommon to the rest of the society. The unresolved communication barrier had eventually isolated deaf and dumb people from the society. Hence, this study focused on design and implementation of a wearable sign language interpreter. 6 inertial measurement unit (IMU) were placed on back of hand palm and each fingertips to capture hand and finger movements and orientations. Total of 28 proposed word-based American Sign Language were collected during the experiment, while 156 features were extracted from the collected data for classification. With the used of the long short-term memory (LSTM) algorithm, this system achieved up to 99.89% of accuracy. The high accuracy system performance indicated that this proposed system has a great potential to serve the deaf and dumb communities and resolve the communication gap.

It becomes more and more more important for the storage that supports high speed recording and stable access from network environment. As one field of basic science which produces massive astronomical data, VLBI(: Very Long Baseline Interferometer) is now demanding more data writing performance and which is directly related to astronomical observation with high resolution and sensitivity. But most of existing storage are cloud model based for the high throughput of general IT, finance, and administrative service, and therefore it not the best choice for recording of big stream data. Therefore, in this study, we design storage system optimized for high performance of I/O and concurrency. To solve this problem, we implement packet read and writing module through the use of libpcap and pf_ring API on the multi core CPU environment, and build a scalable storage based on software RAID(: Redundant Array of Inexpensive Disks) for the efficient process of incoming data from external network.

Researches on the gesture recognition have become a very interesting topic in the computer vision area, Gesture recognition from visual images has a number of potential applicationssuch as HCI (Human Computer Interaction), VR(Virtual Reality), machine vision. To overcome thetechnical barriers in visual processing, conventional approaches have employed cumbersome devicessuch as datagloves or color marked gloves. In this research, we capture gesture images without usingexternal devices and generate a gesture trajectery composed of point-tokens. The trajectory Is spottedusing phase-based velocity constraints and recognized using the discrete left-right HMM. Inputvectors to the HMM are obtained by using the LBG clustering algorithm on a polar-coordinate spacewhere point-tokens on the Cartesian space .are converted. A gesture vocabulary is composed oftwenty-two dynamic hand gestures for editing drawing elements. In our experiment, one hundred dataper gesture are collected from twenty persons, Fifty data are used for training and another fifty datafor recognition experiment.

As the elderly population increases, real-time personal health monitoring is gaining new ground with advances in wireless communications. Such an approach is particularly beneficial to elderly and physically challenged people, as well as those who live alone and are not be able to seek help in case of medical emergencies. The aim of this study is to implement a wearable band which monitors personal vital signs, such as the body temperature and heart rate, and assists with healthcare decisions using a fuzzy logic based decision support system. Since the vital sign data measured from sensors are imprecise and their normal variation with age is nonlinear and not crisp, a fuzzy system is employed to deal with this imprecise or uncertain information. The proposed wearable band is designed to continuously capture and transmit vital signs and healthcare decisions to suitable apps developed for smartphones. In this way, health alerts can be sent to the guardian or caregiver who is registered in the apps.

Recently, in various fields such as games, movies, and animation, content that uses motion capture to build body models and create characters to express in 3D space is increasing. Studies are underway to generate animations using RGB-D cameras to compensate for problems such as the cost of cinematography in how to place joints by attaching markers, but the problem of pose estimation accuracy or equipment cost still exists. Therefore, in this paper, we propose a system that inputs RGB images into a joint estimation network and converts the results into 3D data to create FBX format animations in order to reduce the equipment cost required for animation creation and increase joint estimation accuracy. First, the two-dimensional joint is estimated for the RGB image, and the three-dimensional coordinates of the joint are estimated using this value. The result is converted to a quaternion, rotated, and an animation in FBX format is created. To measure the accuracy of the proposed method, the system operation was verified by comparing the error between the animation generated based on the 3D position of the marker by attaching a marker to the body and the animation generated by the proposed system.
