The purpose of this study is to investigate the sensory characteristics of Toha-jeot added cabbage kimchi by Koreans and Japanese. The sensory evaluation was conducted for the following 9 items such as color, savory taste, carbonated taste, sour taste, hot taste, salty taste, off flavor, texture and overall preference. Sensory evaluation of kimchi was tested by Koreans or Japanese whose ages vary from 30 to 50 years old and each group had 25~30 evaluators. Kimchi at different stages of fermentation day 0, 10 and 18th was evaluated. Saltiness of kimchi was 1.5~2.1% through the fermentation period and pH of kimchis was decreased from pH 5.4~5.6 to 4.3~4.4 during the fermentation. The sensory evaluation of Toha-jeot added cabbage kimchi by Koran and Japanese showed the differences in evaluation as the fermentation proceeded. The color, texture and overall preference of Toha-jeot added cabbage kimchi fermentation for 10th days was scored significantly high by Korean group while the score for the savory taste was increased as the fermentation proceeded. The hot taste preference of Toha-jeot added cabbage kimchi fermented 18th days scored significantly high and also increased as the fermentation proceeded by Japanese group. The overall preference of Toha-jeot added cabbage kimchi by Japanese group was higher than that of control cabbage kimchi tested at 10 and 18th days fermentation.

Keeping abreast with the latest consumer's trends, industries are focusing on sensibility aspects of products to meet consumer's needs. The car(?) seat cover fabrics are more closely related to human senses than anything else. This study attempted to investigate which seat cover fabric can give good feeling to consumers and to analyze their characteristics. Twelve kinds of jacquard fabric used for seat cover were selected. The Kawabata Evaluation System was used to measure the mechanical properties of 12 jacquard fabrics, and tactile sensibility(TS), and preference(P) determined by subjective evaluation of 160 participants were also utilized. The stepwise regression analysis was made to select the most significant mechanical properties, and some models for predicting tactile sensibility and preference was developed. The results are briefly summarized as follows: the most important parameter to choose seat cover fabric is a "hygienic property" and the other parameters are 'materials with color fastness', 'compressive property', 'color', 'antibacterial property', 'easy-care property'. The LogSMD, LogB, LC, EM were selected as significant mechanical properties affecting tactile sensibility. Also, the LC, LogB, LogSMD, LogWC, LogMMD were selected as significant mechanical properties affecting preference.

Given a directed graph, we can determine how the user's preference moves from one product item to another. In this graph called "preference transition network", each node represents the product item while its edge pointing to the other nodes represents the transition of user's preference. However, with the large number of items make the network become more complex, unclear and difficult to be interpreted. In order to address this problem, this paper proposes a visualization technique in preference transition analysis based on recency and frequency. By adapting these two elements, the semantic meaning of each item and its transition can be clearly identified by its different types of node size, color and edge style. The experiment in a sales data has shown the results of the proposed approach.

Recently, researches to improve a quality and a color of a display are being actively studied because of the prosperous growth of the flat panel displays such as LCD, PDP and OLED. Automatically adjusting color temperatures based on user preferences is the one of the researches to provide the optimum display color. In this paper, along with defining the problems of prior methods, the user preferences against the priori defined ranges proposed by the MPEG-7 color temperature descriptor are inspected. Based on the analysis of user preferences, an optimal color temperature conversion curve is proposed. As a result of an analysis by ANOVA, tendencies of the user preferences against each range are proven to be similar to the prior research results. The repetition of the color temperature conversion against an image is not statistically significant.

With a view to making comparative study and promoting the interchange of food culture between Korea and Japan, a sensory test was given to 60 female college students (30 Koreans and as many Japanese) in order to find out differences in preference of various teas between the two nations. The findings are as follows: 1. The correlation between each specific tea and total evaluation: Significant level of high positive correlation was indicated in case of color, taste, and aftertaste by both Koreans and Japanese. In case of odor, and flavor the Koreans indicated insignificant level of nought, and the Japanese significant level of high negative correlation one. In sweetness and total evaluation the Koreans indicated positive correlation and the Japanese insignificant level of nought. 2. Comparison of preference of various teas by the Koreans and the Japanese 1) Ginseng tea A and Ginseng tea B As to Ginseng tea A and Ginseng tea B the Koreans liked odor best while the Japanese liked flavor best. In general preference the Koreans liked them better than the Japanese, and both groups indicated significant level (p <.001). 2) Black tea A: As to Black tea A the Koreans liked odor best while the Japanese taste, and in general preference the Japanese liked them better than the Koreans and both groups indicated significant level (p <.001). 3) Black tea B. As to Black tea B the Koreans liked odor best while the Japanese color, and in general preference the Japanese liked them better than the Korean and both groups indicated significant level (p <.01). 4) Coffee A. The Koreans liked odor best while the Japanese flavor, and neither of the groups indicated significant level (p <.05). 5) Coffee B. The Koreans liked color best while the Japanese flavor, and neither of the groups indicated significant level (p <.05). 6) Green tea A and Green tea B. As to Green tea A and Green tea B, the Koreans liked odor best while the Japanese taste. In general preference the Japanese liked them better than the Koreans, both indicated significant level (p <.001). 7) Malcha (a kind of traditional Green tea) Both groups liked flavor best, in general preference the Japanese liked it better than the Koreans, and both groups indicated significant level (p <.001).

Color-normal observers (CNOs) and color-deficient observers (CDOs) have different preferences and emotions for color images. A color-image quality-enhancement algorithm for a CDO is developed to easily adjust images according to each observer's preference or image quality factors. The color-perception differences between CDO and CNO are analyzed and modeled in terms of the YCbCr chroma ratio and hue difference; then the color-shift method is designed to control the degree of color difference.

The objective of this study is to test the influence of the landscape meaning illustrated to subjects on their landscape preference and to investigate the difference of the response(Influence Value;IV) between cultural landscape and natural landscape. For this, color-slide surrogates for cultural and natural landscape are shown to Experimental Group(EG) and Control Group(CG)(between-subject design). And Experimental Group is divided into meaning illustrated Before and After Group(within-subject design). For given 45 slide scenes of cultural and natural landscape, the subjects were asked to measure their preference on ten point scale. The results are as follows; 1. The influence of value illustration is positive in the preference. Specifically, this effect was more powerful for the low beauty landscape than for the high beauty landscape. 2. The relation between the IV and the preference of non illustrated group was deeply correlated. And IV of cultural landscape was higher than that of natural landscape. 3. It is identified that the meaning illustration about high naturalness landscape such as the swamp and alpine landscape is more effective than other natural landscape. 4. Also, the preference was more influenced by the personal task associated with landscape experience. But the statistical significance between the preference and experience about landscape didn't exist. Accordingly, it was suggested by this study that the illustrated meanings of landscape and perceived landscape form were also major influential factors on the landscape preference.

Purpose: This study chose Vaccinium oldhamii as a material to complement the redness of Sansuyu, which is unstable to heat, to Sansuyu pudding. Methods: The level of browning and hunter color of Corni fructus juice supernatant (CFS) and Vaccinium oldhamii extract (VOE) were examined and dependent on heating time and storage period. Results: A value (redness) of VOE was high, browning was moderate during the storage period, and though the storage period was extended, the value stayed stable, meaning overall redness was maintained. With the increase in the amount of added VOD, the color preference of Sansuyu pudding, and D (VOE 10.0%) was marked the highest at 5.80. As for the preference of texture, B (VOE not added) was the highest at 5.35, but C (VOE 5.0%) was marked the highest at 5.10 for overall preference. The DPPH radical scavenging ability of Sansuyu pudding was 15.86-21.39% at a concentration of 1,000 ppm, and the total polyphenol content was 136.76-139.62 mg/100 g. Since the redness of Sansuyu is unstable to heat and then is heated, its degree of browning and b value (degree of yellowness) increases. Conclusion: So if a material with a red color that is stable to heat is added to Sansuyu, the preference of Sansuyu products will improve.
