The purpose of this study is to investigate the words that represent the human sensibility for the water space. The selection of certain words for human sensibility valuation is very important things because of make standard for human sensibility valuation in water bodies. At the first step of the research, 129 words were collected from the subjects by imagination in group of specialist, studies on water space, studies on landscape valuation and studies on human sensibility valuation in out door environmental. At the second step, the suitability test was done and 39 words collected over an average 3.5 point. This words test was 5 point measure to similarity water bodies. At the third step, the factor analysis, cluster analysis, Multi Dimensional Scaling was performed on data, and 9 words were selected from the analysis. Finally, selected comfortable words for human sensibility valuation in water space is hands-on experience, natural, sensibility, harmony, clear, good-feeling, dynamic, free-heart, romantic. The significance of the present study is that it contributes the progress of uncovering the axis of the human sensibility by carefully selecting the words that represent the human sensibility.

This paper deals with the difference between human sensibility collected from real product and that through graphic image(photographs and graphic images on CRT monitor) on the same automotive interior. The objective of this study is to verify the possibility that, If there are some restrictions in collecting human sensibility through real product directly, they can be overcome by using graphic image instead, making it easy to collect and analyze human sensibility so as to reflect consumers sensibility in the design of automotive interior, and also comparing the result between real product and graphic image on CRT monitor in order to confirm the potentiality of developing a remote human sensibility survey system through Internet. Therefore two experiments were conducted and the object for experiments was limited to automotive interior. The analysis results showed that there were significant differences between graphic image and real product in case of total interior and IPC(Instrument Panel Center) and no significant difference in case of display panel. Also, there were no significant difference when the subject group was female(housewife). To conclude, we can infer, in case of display panel, that it is possible to replace real product with graphic image to extract similar results on human sensibility and to collect human sensibility through Internet.

Conventionally the subjective assessment for measuring the human sensibility is always performed after an experiment or a stimulus is terminated. This aftermath method can not. exactly, reflect the human sensibility which is produced at the moment of the presentation of the stimulus. In the present study, a new real-time subjective assessment system is developed. The system is composed of two parts: the sensibility input part and the sensibility evaluation part. The sensibility input part gets the values, which are recorded on the input board using pen-mouse, from the evaluation of each subject on his/her own subjective sensibility for the stimulus. The sensibility evaluation part displays the level of the pleasantness and arousal on one and two dimension in real time. An experiment on the design of the input board that any subject can easily and exactly evaluates one's own sensibility is also included in this study. The system can be used for evaluating the human subjective sensibility in real time, and, also, can be applied to other subjective assessment tests that require real time evaluation.

Driving simulators have been developed for evaluating users' reaction to various driving situations. Dynamic simulators have, however, limitations of the motion feedback in space. Therefore, this paper presents a driving simulator and suggests a human sensibility ergonomics (kansei engineering) method to be used in improving sense of motion through a vehicle simulator. Human sensibility ergonomics(kansei engineering) is defined as translating technology of the customer' feeling about a new product into design elements. Constituents of the simulator were defined and the virtual world was generated by the object modeling technique. Senses perceived were classified into feelings of velocity, acceleration, rotation, and vibration based on the human sensibility associated with driving. And the most frequent verbal expressions were collected from 17 male subjects to define complex human sensibility.

Human Sensibility Engineering System (HSES) has been applied to product development for customer's satisfaction based on ergonomic technology. The system is composed of three parts such as human sensibility analysis, inference mechanism, and presentation technologies. Inference mechanism translating human sensibility into design elements plays an important role in the HSES. In this paper, we propose a rule-based inference model for HSES. The rule-based inference model is composed of five rules and two inference approaches. Each of these rules reasons the design elements for selected human sensibility words with the decision variables from regression analysis in terms of forward inference. These results are evaluated by means of backward inference. By comparing the evaluation results, the inference model decides on product design elements which are closer to the customer's feeling and emotion. Finally, simulation results are tested statistically in order to ascertain the validity of the model.

This study presents a human sensibility evaluation method using neural network and multiple-template method on electroencephalogram(EEG). We used a multi-layer perceptron type neural network as the sensibility classifier using EEG signal. For our research objective, 10-channel EEG signals are collected from the healthy subjects. After the necessary preprocessing is performed on the acquired signals, the various EEG parameters are estimated and their discriminating performance is evaluated in terms of pattern classification capability. In our study, Linear Prediction(LP) coefficients are utilized as the feature parameters extracting the characteristics of EEG signal, and a multi-layer neural network is used for indicating the degree of human sensibility. Also, the estimation for human comfortableness is performed by varying temperature and humidity environment factors and our results showed that the proposed scheme achieved good performances for evaluation of human sensibility.

This paper presents how to build a human sensibility database by multivariate method. And, we discribe a fuzzy based inference system which converts human sensibility data to design factors using the human sensibility database. We are able to obtain the values of multiple correlation coeffcient, partial correlation coefficient, and categories by the quantification theory which is multivariate analysis. So, the human sensibility database is constructed from those values. The inference system will be more useful, if the human sensibility database and graphic design factor database were integrated.

In the preliminary design stage of an automotive interior, human sensibility is first analyzed and applied to design parameters for satisfying consumers needs using optimization and engineering judgement. Then designers try to design components that meet these needs using empirical and trial-and-error procedures. This process usually yields poor results because it is difficult to find a feasible design that satisfies the targets by trial-and-error (a feasible design is one that satisfies consumers needs and design constraints). To improve this process, we need tools to link the human sensibility with the design parameters that define the geometry of the components of an automotive interior. A methodology is presented for developing a tool for design guidance of an automotive interior. This tool translates the human sensibility into the design parameters that define the geometry of the components of an automotive interior. This tool, called interpreter, rapidly predicts the human sensibility of a given automotive interior and presents design parameters that meet or exceed given human sensibility to satisfy consumers needs and design constraints. The methodology is demonstrated on the interior design of an actual automotive.

A large number of indices are produced from human sensibility ergonomic data, which are accumulated by the project "Study on the Development of Web-Based Database System of Human Sensibility and its Support". Since the research in this field will be increased rapidly, it is necessary to automate the index processing of human sensibility ergonomic data. From the similarity between indexation and summarization, we propose the automation of this process. In this paper, we study on extraction of keywords, information types and expression features that are considered as basic elements of following techniques for automatic summarization: classification of documents, extraction of information types and linguistic features. This study can be applied to automatic summarization system and knowledge management system in the domain of human sensibility ergonomics.rgonomics.
