This study aims to measure the emotional effects of pet plants, which have become popular in recent years. A questionnaire regarding perceptions of these indoor plants was administered to 78 university students. Thirty of these students took care of two species of pet plants for 90 days, and the emotional effects of this exercise were determined based on the type of words used in their daily records. The questionnaire results showed that the general recognition of emotional effects was low, though awareness of the term "pet plants" was high. However, after gardening for 90 days, participants began to consider their pet plants friends or family members, noting feelings of affection and sympathy in their daily writeups. These participants also experienced positive changes in their emotional well-being, including feelings of joy, hope, relaxation, confidence, and accomplishment. This study argues that pet plants can have positive effects on emotional stability and suggests that their adoption would be beneficial to humanity at large.

최근, 유비쿼터스 관련 산업이 비약적으로 발전하고 있으며, 특정 구역을 대상으로 유비쿼터스 환경을 구축하는 u-Zone의 개발이 추진되고 있다. 특히 헬스케어 시스템의 관점에서 보면, u-Zone을 활용하여 정신질환자나 거동이 불편한 환자를 관리하기 위한 비용과 노력을 감축시킬 수 있다. 하지만 아직 헬스케어 시스템은 특정 개인을 대상으로 하거나 병원 내부 시스템을 확장하는 수준에 그치고 있다. 정신질환자 중에는 알코올, 마약 등의 약물에 중독된 환자의 비율이 높지만, 일상적인 데이터의 수집이 어려워 체계적인 관리나 정확한 진단이 어렵다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 u-Zone 내에서 중독환자에게 생체신호 측정 센서를 통해 지속적인 정보를 수집하고, 모니터링할 수 있는 시스템을 제안하였다. 맥박, 체온, 가속도 센서를 이용하여 환자 상태정보를 수집하고, 이를 기반으로 감정 상태를 판별하여 정확한 진단의 근거가 될 수 있도록 한다.

Regardless of their intention, listeners tend to assess speakers' personalities based on the sounds of the speech they hear. Assessment criteria, however, have not been fully investigated to indicate whether there is any relationship between the acoustic cue of produced speech sounds and perceived personality impression. If properly investigated, the potential relationship between these two will provide crucial insights on the aspects of human communications and further on human-computer interaction. Since human communications have distinctive characteristics of simultaneity and complexity, this investigation would be the identification of minimum essential factors among the sounds of speech and perceived personality impression. The purpose of this study, therefore, is to identify significant associations between the speech sounds and perceived personality impression of speaker by the listeners. Twenty eight subjects participated in the experiment and eight acoustic parameters were extracted by using Praat from the recorded sounds of the speech. The subjects also completed the Neo-five Factor Inventory test so that their personality traits could be measured. The results of the experiment show that four major factors(duration average, pitch difference value, pitch average and intensity average) play crucial roles in defining the significant relationship.

On account of the increasing crime rates annually and the consequent rising anxiety, safety has become an important topic in the aspect of environmental formation to provide decent lives to urban dwellers. As a result, great emphasis has been placed in the importance of Crime Prevention through Environmental Design (CPTED), a design method which utilizes physical environmental design to prevent crime. The definition of CPTED encompasses the technological level of crime prevention as well as comprehensive environmental design which takes into consideration fear or terror in view of human recognition and emotion. However, the current application method of CPTED in Korea is still limited to the technical supplementation of facilities, such as CCTV and streetlight, and fragmental modification like village mural paintings. Moreover, the guideline for CPTED in Korea is only a theoretical adaptation of foreign books and does not offer sufficient studies for a practical design method that will improve the life of city dwellers. The purpose of this study is to examine design methods for safe environment construction in accordance with the changing concept of CPTED by understanding the characteristic of space and analyzing the how the methods of light are expressed. This study aims to provide basic material which will serve as a guideline in creating a safe environment in the future.

As we recognize the space, humans will experience a process to synthesize elements of cognitive various methods, come to understand the environment. It is intended that on humans to recognize the space, it is intended to act directly under study how to recognize. Humans can know that the determining action based on the values and physical condition, based on the space in which they have been recognized, there are differences in the behavior of the human as a result. Social and arrangement of components - physical region that is cultural difficulties constitute experience specific areas therein. Space for human activities and human, can know that it is not a memory of human behavior, to have a closer relationship with human perception. That is, the description will be aware of the space via the perceptual phenomenon of man due to physical elements performed in the space, what acts about what happens. Through an understanding of the potential for this, and emotion space production consisting only of physical visual element future, and use act of the area to be expressed from his recognition, through the expansion of the perceptual elements, diverse experience richer and more it is a case where deemed necessary access space configuration capable of a broad depth study of this portion is happening, in order to constitute a space, a new interpretation for human behavior is progressing.

Verbal communication is the most commonly used mean of communication. A spoken word carries a lot of informations about speakers and their emotional states. In this paper we designed a model to recognize emotional states in a speech, a first phase of two phases in developing a toy machine that recognizes emotional states in a speech. We conducted an experiment to extract and analyse the emotional state of a speaker in relation with speech. To analyse the signal output we referred to three characteristics of sound as vector inputs and they are the followings: frequency, intensity, and period of tones. Also we made use of eight basic emotional parameters: surprise, anger, sadness, expectancy, acceptance, joy, hate, and fear which were portrayed by five selected students. In order to facilitate the differentiation of each spectrum features, we used the wavelet transform analysis. We applied ANFIS (Adaptive Neuro Fuzzy Inference System) in designing an emotion recognition model from a speech. In our findings, inference error was about 10%. The result of our experiment reveals that about 85% of the model applied is effective and reliable.

The following are summary and result of this study. The purpose of this study was to research into TV makeup types focusing on Korean aesthetics with recognizing importance of Korean thought amid what the global interest pays attention to South Korea thanks to the recent influence of Hanryu(Korean wave). The humorous beauty reflects Korean people's optimistic attitude dubbed the realization of joy, anger, sorrow, and pleasure through opposition and convergence in ambivalent emotion with the superb attitude available for escaping from a stoic life. This is being indicated in the shocking form of embracing the avant-garde experiment through transforming and distorting by positively accepting humor and ugliness, which are the form of distortion and exaggeration, which strive for departing from sorrow through TV entertainment programs. This trend is being shown similarly to the tendency of giving mental satisfaction to human being with amusement while accepting ugliness as new beauty with the de-centralized recognition in the late 20th century. Accordingly, as the makeup of focusing on presenting character begins to be noted even in makeup, the similarity was being shown to the recent trend. This study is expected to contribute to continuous development in our country's makeup and TV broadcasting art field by being expanded the atmosphere of more systematic and in-depth research.
