Under the inhumane oppression of imperialism, the Third World's political violence has been often represented as an immediate and explosive one with an instant, concentrated visibility. Yet the ecological and psychological exploitation of the Third-World countries by empires, as Rob Nixon insists, shows the relative invisibility of slow violence. This paper is to reveal this slow violence of the marginalized areas symbolized as the lowland. Although Arne Naess' deep ecology promotes the inherent worth of living beings regardless of their instrumental utility to human needs. this paper deals with three postcolonial ecological textbooks which criticize the white-centered deep ecology: Amitav Ghosh's The Glass Palace, Jhumpa Lahiri's The Lowland, and Barbara Kingsolver's The Poisonwood Bible. Through postcolonial critical study, this paper finds out that all these three works have some themes in common. First, these postcolonial works assume a shape of family saga which is parallel to the slow violence of ecological and psychological plundering of empires in the postcolonial countries. Second, like the mangroves which have a tenacious hold on life, these postcolonial people rather overcome the heterogenic challenge with the sturdy and tough mind than defeated. Third, the native people's ethics of earth functions as the stronghold for their respectable lifestyle in their indigenous historicity. Finally, as a big fat brother, the Americanized globalization or neoliberalism is warned as the neocolonialism which is often shown as the disguised pattern of greenwashing. Namely, the people's self-enhancement is always prior to the imperialistic development or neoliberalism in the postcolonial ecological texts which sharply contrast the native's life consciousness and the empire's development theory.

This paper presents perceptual model with a stochastic rnultiresolution characteristic that can be applied with watermark embedding in the biorthogonal wavelet domain. The perceptual model with adaptive watermarking algorithm embed at the texture and edge region for more strongly embedded watermark by the SSQ(successive subband quantization). The watermark embedding is based on the computation of a NVF(noise visibility function) that have local image properties. This method uses non-stationary Gaussian model stationary Generalized Gaussian model because watermark has noise properties. In order to determine the optimal NVF, we consider the watermark as noise. The particularities of embedding in the stationary GG model use shape parameter and variance of each subband regions in multiresolution. To estimate the shape parameter, we use a moment matching method. Non-stationary Gaussian model use the local mean and variance of each subband. The experiment results of simulation were found to be excellent invisibility and robustness. Experiments of such distortion are executed by Stirmark benchmark test.

Depending on the characteristics of each 3D-DCT block, images can be classified into three types: images with motion and textures, images with high textures and little motion, images with little textures and little motion. In this paper, we propose an adaptive watermarking method using these characteristics of each 3D-DCT block. and the human visual system. The proposed method classifies patterns of 3D-DCT blocks based on the motion and texture information, and classifies the image type according to the ratio of these patterns. The watermark is inserted proportional to the 3D-DCT coefficients by using pattern adaptive JND, which. makes the proposed watermarking robust by inserting watermarks in as many blocks as possible. Experimental results show that the proposed method achieves better performance in terms of invisibility and robustness than the previous method.

In this paper, a robust watermarking technique is presented by using a block-based statistics in DCT domain. First, the proposed technique calculates JND threshold value using the global statistics in DCT domain. Then watermark insertion is carried out by inserting one watermark into coefficients which are above the threshold value J within a 2${\times}$2 block. Finally, watermark is estimated by averaging the extracted watermarks from the coefficients which are above the threshold in a window. In experiments it is shown that the proposed techniques can enhance perceptual invisibility and robustness against additive noise and JPEG compression attacks by using the characteristics of JND.

3D 그래픽에서는 실시간 애니메이션을 위하여 이동, 회전, 스케일링 변환 노드로 구성되는 키프레임 애니메이션이 널리 이용되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 VRML 기반의 3D 애니메이션 상에서 CoordIndex 노드 내에 꼭지점 좌표를 이용한 기하학적 워터마킹 기법과 PositionInterpolator 노드 내에 키 값을 이용한 보간기 워터마킹 기법을 제안한다. 실험 결과로부터 제안한 방법이 각종 기하학적 공격 및 타임라인 공격에 대한 강인성 및 비가시성을 가짐을 확인하였다.

We propose a new logo watermark scheme for digital images which embed a watermark by modifying middle-frequency sub-bands of wavelet transform. Independent component analysis (ICA) is introduced to authenticate and copyright protect multimedia products by extracting the watermark. To exploit the Human visual system (HVS) and the robustness, a perceptual model is applied with a stochastic approach based on noise visibility function (NVF) for adaptive watermarking algorithm. Experimental results demonstrated that the watermark is perfectly extracted by ICA technique with excellent invisibility, robust against various image and digital processing operators, and almost all compression algorithms such as Jpeg, jpeg 2000, SPIHT, EZW, and principal components analysis (PCA) based compression.

멀티미디어 데이터의 저작권 주장을 위한 방법으로 사용되고 디지털 워터마킹 중에서 영상에 대한 워터마킹 기법이 많이 연구되어지고 있지만, 칼라영상에서의 워터마킹 연구가 미비하다. 본 논문에서는 효율적 영상 워터마킹을 위해서 칼라모델 중에서 HSI 채널에서의 워터마킹 적용을 분석하였다. 실험 결과, 가중치에 따른 비가시성을 확인할 수 있었고, 추출된 워터마크의 상관도에서 만족할 만한 결과를 확인할 수 있었다.

In this paper, we presented geometric CAD watermarking scheme for Architectural design drawings using line, arc, and circle components to prevent infringement of copyright from unlawfulness reproductions and distribution. The conventional CAD watermarking scheme can be applied to both line and arc components. But the proposed scheme consists of line, arc and circle watermarking schemes for three basic components of CAD design. After extracting line, arc and circle components from designed drawing, the watermark is embedded into the length of Line component, the angle of arc component, and the radius of circle component considering the robustness against various geometric transformations. The embedding strengths in each component are determined to be preserving the transparency of the watermark. By experimental result, we confirmed the robustness and the invisibility of embedded watermarks in several conversions of architectural design drawing.

The modern society of the 21century is becoming a discussion as spaces appearing as ambiguous boundaries caused by complexed cultural phenomenon. As for the spacial factors we recognize, which appears as phenomenon in which is emphasizing the existing system of cognizance and thinking through drawing inviable parts of the effort within escaping the limits of gravity. This Merleau-Ponty and Gilles Deleuze refines it as theories called "Perception" and "Sense", and through the 'visible and invisible' of Merleau-Ponty and the 'Nonsense and paradox' of Gilles Deleuze, this study object is forming these inviable representations into space. Using the similarities of these two theories as a tool, we will analyze the examples of space with drawing the force that forms invisibility into embodiment, building a possibility of improvement in future spaces.
