Three-dimensional (3D) video technologies are becoming increasingly popular, as it can provide users with high quality and immersive experiences. However, color inconsistency between the camera views is an urgent problem to be solved in multi-view imaging. In this paper, a perception-based color correction method for multi-view images is proposed. In the proposed method, human visual sensitivity (VS) and visual attention (VA) models are incorporated into the correction process. Firstly, the VS property is used to reduce the computational complexity by removing these visual insensitive regions. Secondly, the VA property is used to improve the perceptual quality of local VA regions by performing VA-dependent color correction. Experimental results show that compared with other color correction methods, the proposed method can greatly promote the perceptual quality of local VA regions greatly and reduce the computational complexity, and obtain higher coding performance.

Herein, we propose a simple fabrication method for MXene-coated V-groove sensors for applications. To enhance the sensitivity of this sensor, we applied MXene particles, instead of conventional metal layers, as a sensing material on the sensor's surface. This allows for an easier fabrication, as well as higher sensitivity of the sensor compared to those of our previously demonstrated metal-based V-groove sensor. Additionally, polyurethane-acrylate, a UV-curable liquid polymer, can be easily applied using micro-electromechanical systems-based surface-texture micromachining. The sensor sensitivity is approximately 0.08 /mm, and it can be improved by increasing the number of V-grooves. We believe that the proposed MXene-based wearable sensor offers a great potential in detecting various types of motions characteristic of human activities.

Although consumer needs for better products force manufactures to put emphasis on design, often development of a product has been done without the formal process to consider consumer needs. In order to identify the implicit needs of customers and the areas of potential demand on a product, several analysis scheme such as QFD (Quality Function Deployment) has been developed. QFD, also known as the House of Quality, is the efficient tool ever created to tie product and service design decisions directly to customer wants and needs, i.e. VoC (Voice of Customer) To utilize this tool on a product design, first of all, the consumers attributes and the engineering characteristics must be exactly investigated. However there were only few studies about them on shoe design. Hence in this paper we developed an innovative framework for shoes design based on QFD. As a result, we uncovered 29 dominant human satisfaction dimensions as the consumers attributes for customer-oriented quality evaluation of a comfortable shoes. Here, 29 human satisfaction dimensions for a shoe design were identified as the dimensions that represent the human sensitivity and psychological feeling on comfortable shoes. Also, we proposed 60 human interface elements as the engineering characteristics. The relationships between human satisfaction dimensions and human interface elements were investigated. This study will help the designers and manufacturers clarify the conceptual and abstract aspect of the design evaluation by proposing a more systematic and process-oriented method.

본 연구는 터널이 갖는 다양한 특성 가운데 운전자의 심리적 안정성과 쾌적성 등 경관을 구성하는 설계요인과 운전자의 감성적 요인간의 관계를 파악하여, 터널경관에 대한 평가방법을 제시하고, 이를 위하여 터널경관을 구성하는 물리적인 구성요소와 운전자의 감성인지 변화와의 관계를 파악하여 경관적 환경을 조성할 수 있는 방안을 제시하는데 연구의 목적이 있다. 터널경관에 대한 감성인지특성을 파악하기 위한 LISREL 모형을 구축한 결과 터널경관 영향요인은 터널경관 구성요소 조화에 의한 감성 이미지인 것으로 분석되었다. 이러한 감성이미지는 설계요인과 개인속성에 의하여 설명며, 설계요인의 영향이 개인속성의 영향보다 크게 나타났다. 개인 속성과 설계요인 모두의 관계는 (+)의 관계로 나타났고 "안정성"과 "변화성"간에는 서로 밀접한 상관관계가 있는 것으로 분석되었다. 이때, "안전성" 요인이 "변화성" 요인보다 경관인지도에 좀 더 영향을 미치는 것으로 분석되어, 경관 평가 시 운전자는 기본적으로 "안전성"을 중시하나 "변화성"에 대하여도 요구하고 있는 것으로 분석되었다.

The analysis of human movement requires the knowledge of the Hill type muscle parameters, the muscle-tendon and moment arm length change as a function of joint angles. However, values of a subject's muscle parameters are very difficult to identify. It turns out from a sensitivity analysis that the tendon slack length and maximum muscle force are the two critical parameters among the Hill-type muscle model. Therefore, it could be claimed that the variation of the tendon slack length and maximum muscle force from the Delp's reference data will change the muscle characteristics of a subject remarkably. A numeric optimization method to search these tendon parameters specific to a subject is proposed, and the accuracy of the developed algorithm is evaluated through a numerical simulation.

최근 정보기술을 이용하여 인간의 감정을 인식하고 소통할 수 있는 ICT(Information and Communication Technology)의 연구가 증가하고 있다. 예를 들어 상대방의 마음을 읽기 위해서 그 사람과의 관계를 형성하고 활동을 해야만 하는 시대에서 사회의 디지털화로 그 경험이 디지털화 되어가며 마인드를 리딩 할 수 있는 디지털기기들이 출현하고 있다. 즉, 인간만이 예측할 수 있었던 감정을 디지털 기기가 대신해 줄 수 있게 된 것이다. 얼굴에서의 감정인식은 현재 연구되어지는 여러 가지 감정인식 중에서 효율적이고 자연스러운 휴먼 인터페이스로 기대되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 감성 ICT에 대한 고찰을 하고 그 사례로서 얼굴감정 인식 시스템에 대한 메카니즘을 살펴보고자 한다.

This paper proposes a dynamic recursive model with the effect analysis of machine state considering human factor(human skillfulness) In a single lot man-machine production system. This model obtained using Kalman Filtering Algorithm Is based on input state, output state, machine state. For sensitivity analysis, this model constructed is examined according to the impact of human skillfulness with computer simulation. The model studied in this paper has a great advance from the point of view a combination of three factors( human engineering, dynamic control theory, quality control ) and can also be extended in several applications.

AVI (Automatic Vision Inspection) systems automatically detect defect features and measure their sizes via camera vision. Defect detection is not an easy process because of noises from various sources and optical distortion. In this paper the acquired images from a TFT panel are enhanced with the adoption of an HVS (Human Visual System). A human visual system is more sensitive on the defect area than the illumination components because it has greater sensitivity to variations of intensity. In this paper we modified an MTF (Modulation Transfer Function) in the Wavelet domain and utilized the characteristics of an HVS. The proposed algorithm flattens the inner illumination components while preserving the defect information intact.

This study aimed to investigate the association between p53 Arg72Pro polymorphism and the risk of human papillomavirus (HPV)-related head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) by conducting meta-analysis. The PubMed database was searched for relevant studies until May 30, 2013. Relevant studies were selected and data were extracted by two independent authors. Overall, subgroup, and sensitivity analyses were then conducted using the Comprehensive Meta-Analysis v2.2 software. Wild-genotype ArgArg was considered as reference [odds ratio (OR) = 1.00]. Nine studies involving 1071 HNSCC cases were obtained. Meta-analysis results indicated no association between p53 Arg72Pro polymorphism and the risk of HPV-related HNSCC: for Pro/Pro vs. Arg/Arg, OR = 1.17, 95% confidence interval (CI) = 0.70-1.98; for Arg/Pro vs. Arg/Arg, OR = 1.25, 95% CI = 0.97-1.72; and for (Pro/Pro + Arg/Pro) vs. Arg/Arg, OR = 1.28, 95% CI = 0.95-1.70. These meta-analysis results were supported by subgroup and sensitivity analysis results. In conclusions, p53 Arg72Pro polymorphism is a potential marker of HP infection-related HNSCC rather than a susceptibility gene polymorphism.

pH sensitive polymers have long been utilized as one important type among many interesting drug delivery systems. This is due to the reason of different pH environments in human organs, which requires different pH control mechanism depending upon the organs. In the present study the pH sensitivity was investigated for both pH sensitive and pH insensitive biopolymers using the diffusion effect along with the swelling effect. NMR microscopy was performed along with optical microscopy. For the analysis of diffusion effect, UMR Microscopy was perFormed to measure diffusion coefficients for various liquids such as distilled water, acetone and DMSO(dimethyl sulfoxide). Also, this technique is expected to contribute to the studies for many pH drug delivery systems.
