  • 정부에서는 전국에 설치된 공공 CCTV를 이용하여 실종아동 등 범죄 예방을 위하여 많은 노력을 하고 있다. 하지만, 운용인력의 부족과 장시간 집중에 따른 집중력 약화 그리고 추적의 어려움 등이 나타나고 있다. 또한, 딥러닝 알고리즘을 통하여 실시간 객체 탐색 및 재인식 그리고 추적을 적용하는 것은 복잡한 신경망 분석의 사유로 파라미터가 증가하고 속도감소 메모리 부족이라는 현상을 나타냈다. 본 논문에서는 실시간 객체 인식이 가능한 Yolo의 적용과 Batch 및 TensorRT 기술 적용을 통하여 신경망을 경량화를 통하여 속도 개선 및 메모리 절약이 가능하도록 설계하였다. 이 논문에서는 이러한 발전된 알고리즘의 연구를 바탕으로 K-reciprocal nearest neighbor 알고리즘, Jaccard distance 비유사도 측정 알고리즘, 산출물 알고리즘 등을 개발하여 공공 CCTV 식별추적시스템 구축을 제시하였다. 그 결과, 비교분석을 통한 알고리즘 조합을 통해 공공 다중CCTV환경에서 실시간으로 객체를 인식하고 재식별하여 객체를 추적할 수 있는 한국형 공공 추적시스템을 제안하였다.

  • 본 연구는 건축시 발생되는 폐기물의 자동분류를 위해 딥러닝 알고리즘을 활용해 건출 폐기물 데이터를 각각 목재 폐기물, 플라스틱 폐기물, 콘크리트 폐기물로 분류하는 두 모델들을 통해서 성능 비교를 한다. 건축 폐기물의 분류를 위해 사용된 딥러닝 알고리즘은 합성곱 신경망 이미지 분류 알고리즘 VGG-16과 NLP를 기반으로 이미지를 시퀀스화 시킨ViT, Vision Transformer 모델을 사용했다. 건축 폐기물 데이터 수집을 위해 이미지 데이터를 전 세계 검색엔진에서 크롤링 하였고, 육안으로도 명확히 구분하기 어렵거나, 중복되는 등 실험에 방해되는 이미지는 전부 제외하여 각 분류당 1천장씩 총 3천장의 이미지를 확보했다. 또한, 데이터 학습시에 모델의 정확도 향상에 도움을 주기 위해 데이터 확대 작업을 진행해 총 3만장의 이미지로 실험을 진행 하였다. 수집된 이미 데이터가 정형화 되어있지 않은 데이터 임에도 불구하고 실험 결과는 정확도가 VGG-16는 91.5%, ViT 는 92.7%의 결과가 나타났다. 이는 실제 건축폐기물 데이터 관리 작업에 실전 활용 가능성을 제시한 것으로 보인다. 본 연구를 바탕으로 추후에 객체 탐지 기법이나 의미론적 분할 기법까지 활용한다면, 하나의 이미지 안에서도 여러 세밀한 분류가 가능해 더욱 완벽한 분류가 가능할 것이다.

  • 1, The Purpose of Study This is a study on the Evaluation of the operating of Fisheries Extension Services of Korea, for performing the activities such as guiding fisheries technique as well as offering industrial information to the fishermen in fishing village. By doing so, the Fisheries Extension Sevices(FES) can materialize the continued growth of fisheries, the social and economic development of fishing village, and the increase in income by enhancing the knowledge level of Fishermen, etc. In performing fisheries policy, this activity plays a great role on the research and development activity, and it has become practical since 1976 in Korea. In order to meet immediately with the problem of fisheries technical innovation and rapid environmental changes surrounding the fisheries, the fishermen should not only enhance their scientific and comprehensive capacity in fisheries technique but abtain various effective information. Generally, as most of all the fishemen are poor in the managerial structure and scattered in fishing villages, they have little opportunity in the contact of information. As a result, it is nessessary for the FES to perform the fishing business by the extension service officials who has received special training and acquired fisheries know-how in these fields. And yet, FES is under the unfullfilled circumstance in such factors as manpower, technical know-how, equipment, and the service system etc., which is required in promoting the social, economic development of fishing village and in resolving the high technique demand of fisherman. This study on the fisheries extension services have been studied from those backgrounds. 2. Research Method The data of collecting methods which were necessary in carrying out this study was adopted by the questionaire research on the present extension service activity, through the subject of the extension services (driving agency of the work and the officials), the object(fishemen) and the 3rd observers to the extension services (the authorities concerned). The research sample was taken by the sampling extraction of total 1, 774 men from the above 3 groups. And the research was carried out from August, 1986 to October, 1986, supported from the Fisheries Extension Office (FEO) located in field during the research process. In this study, the levels of the extension operating were determined and estimated in accordance with the extension service method, morale of extension service officials and the extension service system, etc. through the collected data of the research questionaire paper. And based on this result, the essential conditions of the extension services were grasped, and also we tried to present the various activity plan necessary to promote the operating of the extension services. The questionaire research data was calculated by the computer center of National Fisheries University of Pusan, and the total result was again tried on the one demension analysis along with two dimension analysis to search out the relativity between the questionaire, and the statistical test was done $\chi$$^2$test in significance level of l~5%. 3. Contents of Study This study consists of 7 chapters and the contents are as follows : Chapter I : The object and method of the study Chapter II : The assessment and analysis of the extension services Chapter III : The contents and method of the extension services Chapter IV : Analysis of the essential conditions for the extension services Chapter V : The evaluation of activities of extension services Chapter Ⅵ : Conclusion.4. Results and RecommendationTherefore, the results of this study estimated by logical process and analysis are as follows : 1) Most of Korean fishing villages and coastal fishermen have shown much concerns about fisheries technique and social changes, thus many of them were confronted with new problems on how to adapt and to meet changes. 2) Majority of fishermen estimated FEO as an organization of specific technologies with all the thing concerning the fisheries technique in general. Therefore the fishermen wanted to utilize the FEO as an adaptable method for the modern fisheries techniques as well as the environmental changes. 3) In contrast with the fast changes of the fisheries technique, the complexity and variety of technical system and the broadness of fishing village and fishermen, it was revealed that the necessary factors such as the facilities, manpower, budget, and the level of applying techniques of the FEO located in field were highly insufficient. Accordingly, the guiding efficiency was low and the extension services did not provide full solution to the various request from fishermen. 4) It is possible to classify the activation factor for the extension service into two large dimension ; personal dimension relevant to guidance officials and work dimension relevant to the organization. And it was found that the activation level of the work dimension was far lower than the personal dimension between them. So, the activation should be done first in the dimesion to promote the activation of the extension services. 5) The extension services officials are now demoralized in general, thus it is necessary to take reality into consideration : the expense of activity, the adequate endowment of activity scope and the reasonable operation of the position class, etc to enhance its morale. However, in order to do the FES activation, first of all, the systems should be established which is lain unsettled stage until now. And there must be change in the understanding of government i.e. the fisheries extension services are the essential policy subject to build up the base of fisheries growth and modernize the fisheries management. And it should be driven positively with the recognition of the "lasting project".g project".uot;.

  • 본 연구는 질의 응답(QA) 시스템에서 사용하는 개체명 인식(NER)의 성능을 향상시키기 위하여 시퀀스 태깅 방법론을 적용한 새로운 방법론을 제안한다. 사용자의 질의를 입력 받아 데이터베이스에 저장된 정답을 추출하기 위해서는 사람의 언어를 컴퓨터가 알아들을 수 있도록 구조화 질의어(SQL)와 같은 데이터베이스의 언어로 전환하는 과정이 필요한데, 개체명 인식은 사용자의 질의에서 데이터베이스에 포함된 클래스나 데이터 명을 식별하는 과정이다. 기존의 데이터베이스에서 질의에 포함된 단어를 검색하여 개체명을 인식하는 방식은 동음이의어와 문장성분 구를 문맥을 고려하여 식별하지 못한다. 다수의 검색 결과가 존재하면 그들 모두를 결과로 반환하기 때문에 질의에 대한 해석이 여러 가지가 나올 수 있고, 계산을 위한 시간복잡도가 커진다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 단점을 극복하기 위해 신경망 기반의 방법론을 사용하여 질의가 가지는 문맥적 의미를 반영함으로써 이러한 문제를 해결하고자 했고 신경망 기반의 방법론의 문제점인 학습되지 않은 단어에 대해서도 문맥을 통해 식별을 하고자 하였다. Sequence Tagging 분야에서 최신 기술인 Bidirectional LSTM-CRF 모델을 도입함으로써 신경망 모델이 가진 단점을 해결하였고, 학습되지 않은 단어에 대해서는 온톨로지 기반 특성치를 활용하여 문맥을 반영한 추론을 사용하였다. 음악 도메인의 온톨로지(Ontology) 지식베이스를 대상으로 실험을 진행하고 그 성능을 평가하였다. 본 연구에서 제안한 방법론인 L-Bidirectional LSTM-CRF의 성능을 정확하게 평가하기 위하여 학습에 포함된 단어들뿐만 아니라 학습에 포함되지 않은 단어들도 포함한 질의를 평가에 사용하였다. 그 결과 L-Bidirectional LSTM-CRF 모형을 재학습 시키지 않아도 학습에 포함되지 않은 단어를 포함한 질의에 대한 개체명 인식이 가능함을 확인하였고, 전체적으로 개체명 인식의 성능이 향상됨을 확인할 수 있었다.

시맨틱 웹 자원의 랭킹을 위한 알고리즘: 클래스중심 접근방법 (A Ranking Algorithm for Semantic Web Resources: A Class-oriented Approach)

  • We frequently use search engines to find relevant information in the Web but still end up with too much information. In order to solve this problem of information overload, ranking algorithms have been applied to various domains. As more information will be available in the future, effectively and efficiently ranking search results will become more critical. In this paper, we propose a ranking algorithm for the Semantic Web resources, specifically RDF resources. Traditionally, the importance of a particular Web page is estimated based on the number of key words found in the page, which is subject to manipulation. In contrast, link analysis methods such as Google's PageRank capitalize on the information which is inherent in the link structure of the Web graph. PageRank considers a certain page highly important if it is referred to by many other pages. The degree of the importance also increases if the importance of the referring pages is high. Kleinberg's algorithm is another link-structure based ranking algorithm for Web pages. Unlike PageRank, Kleinberg's algorithm utilizes two kinds of scores: the authority score and the hub score. If a page has a high authority score, it is an authority on a given topic and many pages refer to it. A page with a high hub score links to many authoritative pages. As mentioned above, the link-structure based ranking method has been playing an essential role in World Wide Web(WWW), and nowadays, many people recognize the effectiveness and efficiency of it. On the other hand, as Resource Description Framework(RDF) data model forms the foundation of the Semantic Web, any information in the Semantic Web can be expressed with RDF graph, making the ranking algorithm for RDF knowledge bases greatly important. The RDF graph consists of nodes and directional links similar to the Web graph. As a result, the link-structure based ranking method seems to be highly applicable to ranking the Semantic Web resources. However, the information space of the Semantic Web is more complex than that of WWW. For instance, WWW can be considered as one huge class, i.e., a collection of Web pages, which has only a recursive property, i.e., a 'refers to' property corresponding to the hyperlinks. However, the Semantic Web encompasses various kinds of classes and properties, and consequently, ranking methods used in WWW should be modified to reflect the complexity of the information space in the Semantic Web. Previous research addressed the ranking problem of query results retrieved from RDF knowledge bases. Mukherjea and Bamba modified Kleinberg's algorithm in order to apply their algorithm to rank the Semantic Web resources. They defined the objectivity score and the subjectivity score of a resource, which correspond to the authority score and the hub score of Kleinberg's, respectively. They concentrated on the diversity of properties and introduced property weights to control the influence of a resource on another resource depending on the characteristic of the property linking the two resources. A node with a high objectivity score becomes the object of many RDF triples, and a node with a high subjectivity score becomes the subject of many RDF triples. They developed several kinds of Semantic Web systems in order to validate their technique and showed some experimental results verifying the applicability of their method to the Semantic Web. Despite their efforts, however, there remained some limitations which they reported in their paper. First, their algorithm is useful only when a Semantic Web system represents most of the knowledge pertaining to a certain domain. In other words, the ratio of links to nodes should be high, or overall resources should be described in detail, to a certain degree for their algorithm to properly work. Second, a Tightly-Knit Community(TKC) effect, the phenomenon that pages which are less important but yet densely connected have higher scores than the ones that are more important but sparsely connected, remains as problematic. Third, a resource may have a high score, not because it is actually important, but simply because it is very common and as a consequence it has many links pointing to it. In this paper, we examine such ranking problems from a novel perspective and propose a new algorithm which can solve the problems under the previous studies. Our proposed method is based on a class-oriented approach. In contrast to the predicate-oriented approach entertained by the previous research, a user, under our approach, determines the weights of a property by comparing its relative significance to the other properties when evaluating the importance of resources in a specific class. This approach stems from the idea that most queries are supposed to find resources belonging to the same class in the Semantic Web, which consists of many heterogeneous classes in RDF Schema. This approach closely reflects the way that people, in the real world, evaluate something, and will turn out to be superior to the predicate-oriented approach for the Semantic Web. Our proposed algorithm can resolve the TKC(Tightly Knit Community) effect, and further can shed lights on other limitations posed by the previous research. In addition, we propose two ways to incorporate data-type properties which have not been employed even in the case when they have some significance on the resource importance. We designed an experiment to show the effectiveness of our proposed algorithm and the validity of ranking results, which was not tried ever in previous research. We also conducted a comprehensive mathematical analysis, which was overlooked in previous research. The mathematical analysis enabled us to simplify the calculation procedure. Finally, we summarize our experimental results and discuss further research issues.

  • Robert Rauschenberg's artistic career has often been regarded as having reached its culmination when the artist won the first prize at the 1964 Venice Biennale. With this victory, Rauschenberg triumphantly entered the pantheon of all-American artists and firmly secured his position in the history of American art. On the other hand, despite the artist's ongoing new experiments in his art, the seemingly precocious ripeness in his career has led the critical discourses on Rauschenberg's art to the artist's early works, most of which were done in the mid-1950s and the 1960s. The crux of Rauschenberg criticism lies not only in focusing on the artist's 50's and 60's works, but also in its large dismissal of the significance of the imagery that the artist employed in his works. As art historians Roger Cranshaw and Adrian Lewis point out, the critical discourse of Rauschenberg either focuses on the formalist concerns on the picture plane, or relies on the "culturalist" interpretation of Rauschenberg's imagery which emphasizes the artist's "Americanness." Recently, a group of art historians centered around October has applied Charles Sanders Peirce's semiotics as art historical methodology and illuminated the indexical aspects of Rauschenberg's work. The semantic inquiry into Rauschenberg's imagery has also been launched by some art historians who seek the clues in the artist's personal context. The first half of this essay will examine the previous criticism on Rauschenberg's art and the other half will discuss the artist's 1955 work Rebus, which I think intersects various critical concerns of Rauschenberg's work, and yet defies the closure of discourses in one direction. The categories of signs in the semiotics of Charles Sanders Peirce and the discourse of Jean-Francois Lyotard will be used in discussing the meanings of Rebus, not to search for the semantic readings of the work, hut to make an analogy in terms of the paradoxical structures of both the work and the theory. The definitions of rebus is as follows: Rebus 1. a representation or words or syllables by pictures of object or by symbols whose names resemble the intended words or syllables in sound; also: a riddle made up wholly or in part of such pictures or symbols. 2. a badge that suggests the name of the person to whom it belongs. Webster's Third New International Dictionary of the English Language Unabridged. Since its creation in 1955, Robert Rauschenberg's Rebus has been one of the most intriguing works in the artist's oeuvre. This monumental 'combine' painting($6feet{\times}10feet$ 10.5 inches) consists of three panels covered with fabric, paper, newspaper, and printed reproductions. On top of these, oil paints, pencil and crayon drawings connect each section into a whole. The layout of the images is overall horizontal. Starting from a torn election poster, which is partially read as "THAT REPRE," on the far left side of the painting. Rebus leads us to proceed from the left to the right, the typical direction of reading in a Western context. Along with its seemingly proper title. Rebus, the painting has triggered many art historians to seek some semantic readings of it. These art historians painstakingly reconstruct the iconography based on the artist's interviews, (auto)biography, and artistic context of his works. The interpretation of Rebus varies from a 'image-by-image' collation with a word to a more general commentary on Rauschenberg's work overall, such as a work that "bridges between art and life." Despite the title's allusion to the legitimate purpose of the painting as a decoding of the imagery into sound, Rebus, I argue, actually hinders a reading of it. By reading through Peirce to Rauschenberg, I will delve into the subtle anxiety between words and images in their works. And on this basis, I suggest Rauschenberg's strategy in playing Rebus is to hide the meaning of the imagery rather than to disclose it.

영공(領空)과 우주공간(宇宙空間)의 한계(限界)에 관한 법적(法的) 고찰(考察) ("Legal Study on Boundary between Airspace and Outer Space")

  • One of the first issues which arose in the evolution of air law was the determination of the vertical limits of airspace over private property. In 1959 the UN in its Ad Hoc Committee on the Peaceful Uses of Outer Space, started to give attention to the question of the meaning of the term "outer space". Discussions in the United Nations regarding the delimitation issue were often divided between those in favour of a functional approach ("functionalists"), and those seeking the delineation of a boundary ("spatialists"). The functionalists, backed initially by both major space powers, which viewed any boundary as possibly restricting their access to space(Whether for peaceful or military purposes), won the first rounds, starting with the 1959 Report of the Ad Hoc Committee on the Peaceful Uses of Outer Space which did not consider that the topic called for priority consideration. In 1966, however, the spatialists, were able to place the issue on the agenda of the Outer Sapce Committee pursuant to Resolution 2222 (xxx1). However, the spatialists were not able to present a common position since there existed a variety of propositions for delineation of a boundary. Over the years, the funtionalists have seemed to be losing ground. As the element of location is a decisive factor for the choice of the legal regime to be applied, a purely functional approach to the regulation of activities in the space above the Earth does not offer a solution. It is therefore to be welcomed that there is clear evidence of a growing recognition of the defect inherent to such an approach and that a spatial approach to the problem is gaining support both by a growing number of States as well as by publicists. The search for a solution of the problem of demarcating the two different legal regimes governing the space above the Earth has undoubtedly been facilitated, and a number of countries, among them Argentina, Belgium, France, Italy and Mexico have already advocated the acceptance of the lower boundary of outer space at a height of 100km. The adoption of the principle of sovereignty at that height does not mean that States would not be allowed to take protective measures against space activities above that height which constitute a threat to their security. A parallel can be drawn with the defence of the State's security on the high seas. Measures taken by States in their own protection on the high seas outside the territorial waters-provided that they are proportionate to the danger-are not considered to infringe the principle of international law. The most important issue in this context relates to the problem of a right of passage for space craft through foreign air space in order to reach outer space. In the reports to former ILA Conferences an explanation was given of the reasons why no customary rule of freedom of passage for aircraft through foreign territorial air space could as yet be said to exist. It was suggested, however, that though the essential elements for the creation of a rule of customary international law allowing such passage were still lacking, developments apperaed to point to a steady growth of a feeling of necessity for such a rule. A definite treaty solution of the demarcation problem would require further study which should be carried out by the UN Outer Space Committee in close co-operation with other interested international organizations, including ICAO. If a limit between air space and outer space were established, air space would automatically come under the regime of the Chicago Convention alone. The use of the word "recognize" in Art. I of chicago convention is an acknowledgement of sovereignty over airspace existing as a general principle of law, the binding force of which exists independently of the Convention. Further it is important to note that the Aricle recognizes this sovereignty, as existing for every state, holding it immaterial whether the state is or is not a contracting state. The functional criteria having been created by reference to either the nature of activity or the nature of the space object, the next hurdle would be to provide methods of verification. With regard to the question of international verification the establishment of an International Satelite Monitoring Agency is required. The path towards the successful delimitation of outer space from territorial space is doubtless narrow and stony but the establishment of a precise legal framework, consonant with the basic principles of international law, for the future activities of states in outer space will, it is still believed, remove a source of potentially dangerous conflicts between states, and furthermore afford some safeguard of the rights and interests of non-space powers which otherwise are likely to be eroded by incipient customs based on at present almost complete freedom of action of the space powers.

  • 유방암 환자의 감시림프절 생검을 위하여 현재 방사성동위원소와 blue dye를 이용한 감시림프절 매핑(Mapping)이 선행되고 있다. 현재 모든 환자에 대하여 일괄적인 검사방법이 적용되므로 환자의 유방의 크기나 비만도와 같은 특성이 고려되지 않아 림프절의 흐름이 느린 환자의 경우, 림프절을 충분히 형성하지 못한 채 검사가 종료되는 경우가 종종 발생한다. 본 연구에서는 환자의 신체적 특성인 체질량지수와 유방의 크기에 따른 림프액의 속도차이를 관찰하였다. 이를 통해 방사성동위원소를 이용한 유방의 감시림프절 신티그래피 에서 환자의 특성을 고려한 최적의 검사시간을 도출하는데 목적을 두었다. 본 연구는 2011년 10월부터 2011년 12월까지 수술직전 유방의 감시림프절 신티그래피를 시행한 100명(여성 100명, 평균연령 $50.34{\pm}10.26$)를 대상으로 하였다. 장비는 감마카메라 Forte (Philips Medical Systems, Nederland B.V.)를 사용하였으며, 방사성의약품은 $^{99m}Tc$-Phytate 18.5 MBq, 0.5 ml를 피내주사하였다. 먼저 80명의 환자를 대상으로 기존의 5분 검사방법대신 충분히 림프절을 형성할 때까지 시간의 제한 없이 영상을 획득하였다. 이를 통해 환자의 유방크기와 체질량지수 별 그룹을 나누어 평균 검사시간을 구하였다. 이 결과를 바탕으로 검사시간을 변화시킨 변형 유방 림프신티그래피를 20명의 환자에게 시행하여 유용성을 확인하였다. 80명의 대상 중 유방의 크기에 따른 평균 검사시간은 A그룹 2.48분, B그룹 7.69분, C그룹 10.43분이었다. 80명의 대상 중 체질량지수에 따른 평균 검사시간은 저 체중 1.35분, 표준 2.56분, 과 체중 5.62분, 비만 15분이었다. 앞서 얻어진 정보를 바탕으로 각 그룹별 적절한 검사시간을 적용하여 검사를 시행하였다. 결과는 20명 중 성공평가를 받은 경우는 17회 실패평가를 받은 경우는 3회로 총 85% 성공률을 나타내었다. 유방의 크기와 체질량지수에 따른 총 검사 시간은 체질량지수가 높을수록, 유방의 크기가 클수록 증가하였으며, 얻어진 정보를 바탕으로 기존 검사방법에서 검사시간만을 변화시킨 변형 유방 림프신티그래피를 적용하였을 때 대부분의 경우 검사시간 내 림프절을 형성할 수 있었다. 이를 통해 모든 환자에게 일괄적으로 적용하던 검사방법보다 개인의 신체적 특성을 고려한 적절한 검사시간을 각각 다르게 적용하였을 때 검사에서 높은 성공률을 보임을 알 수 있었다.
