MPEG-V(ISO/IEC 23005) standardizes normative sensory effects metadata and sensory devices command for adapting the sensory effects between the virtual world and the real world. MPEG-V(Virtual) standardization has been carried out by 3DG(Dimensional Graphics) ad-hoc group inside MPEG Working Group(ISO IEC JTC1/SC29/WG11). For the scent effect, one of the sensory effects within MPEG-V, we proposed an olfactory interaction model including electronic nose and scent display to the ad-hoc group. Recently, we proposed types and elements related to the electronic nose as a sensor defined in MPEG-V standard for olfactory interaction. At the 114th MPEG meeting, the types and elements were consequently reflected on MPEG-V CD(Committee Draft) 4th edition. In this paper, we implement an electronic nose system applicable to MPEG-V standard by using MPEG-V schema, encoder, and decoder in order to assess their adequacy.

Although wireless devices ar the most suitable for ubiquitous environment, they have restrictive capacities when using internet services than desktop environment. Considering different system features of mobile devices such as small display and limited input capability, an alternative scheme to access the Web efficiently is required. In the paper, we propose a mobile service method of S&T information content to support ubiquitous environment though the case study of KISTI's Scent of Science content service based on mobile.

This study was carried out to find the effects of aromatherapy using natural fragrance on reducing stress and improving job satisfaction of transportation workers in the taxi industry. A total of 120 workers were divided into the experimental group and the control group according to the inhalation of the fragrance and tested for 2 weeks. After 2 weeks, the difference of emotional change, stress analysis, and evaluation of job satisfaction according to aromatherapy were compared between the two groups. The result showed that the experimental group had a higher interest in scent products than the control group and that they wanted to encounter a lot of real scents, indicating that aromatherapy caused positive interest in general scent likability. In addition, the experimental group said that the inhalation of fragrance would refresh the feeling of the passengers in the vehicle and smoothly communicate with the passengers. Especially, it showed a significant difference between the two groups in terms of tension relief, pleasure and good mood by inhalation of fragrance, indicating the positive effect on job satisfaction.

The study showed test results of Teriyaki sauce produced by apple concentrate instead of sugar in order to reduce the sugar content. We created four batches of soy sauce for testing. The Control batch was normal soy sauce. S1, S2, S3, and S4 were sauces made with different amounts of apple concentrate. The test results for the moisture contents, color value, sugar content, salinity, viscosity, pH and sensory evaluation (QDA, acceptance test) of all the types of sauce are as follows. The moisture contents of the Control was 50.80%, and for S4 was 35.14%. In chromaticity results, the L value of the Control was 10.85 which was the highest compared to samples which were in the range of 8.35~8.55. The value of a and b was highest in S4 and was lowest in Control. The sugar content was 53.53 $^{\circ}Brix$ in the Control, and 43.73 $^{\circ}Brix$ in S1. S1 showed 6.77% salinity, and S4 showed 5.37% salinity. The viscosity of S4 was highest at 60.33 cp, and Control showed the highest pH value of 4.82. The QDA of S4 showed the most intense brown color, which was 5.36. For gloss and soy sauce scent, no significant difference was found between the samples. Control showed a mild apple scent which was 1.45, and S1 showed the saltiest flavor which was 5.18. The sweet flavor for Control was 4.64, and S3 showed the strongest aftertaste from the test. No significant difference of appearance and acceptance was found between samples. S2 showed a scent of 5.09, which was the best. The savory taste of S3 was best, and was worst for S1. S3 showed the best overall interest which was 4.55. According to these results, S3 had the lowest sugar content, at 4%, and therefore had the highest possibility of being produced.

In this paper, we consider two kinds of the Levenberg-Marquardt method for solve a system of nonlinear equations. We use line search on every iteration to guarantee that the Levenberg-Marquardt methods are globally convergent. Under mild conditions, we prove that while the de- scent condition can be satisfied at the iteration of the Levenberg-Marquardt method, the global convergence of the method can be established.

In this paper we develop algorithms in programming lan-guage SCHEME for implementation of the main first order gradient techniques for unconstrained optimization. Implementation of the de-scent techniques which use non-optimal descent steps as well as imple-mentation of the optimal descent techniques are described. Also we investigate implementation of the global problem called optimization along a line. Developed programs are effective and simpler with re-spect to the corresponding in the procedural programming languages. Several numerical examples are reported.

Signals reduced from the brain had been considered as a noise that is caused by the stochastic process until 1980. The recent non-linear dynamic theory researches, however, reported that these signals are meaningful and deterministic chaos signals in which they show how the brain deals with various information Since this report, a wide range of researches has been carried out and still in progress. Thus, by using the correlational dimension, one of the non-linear analytical methods, the characteristics of the brain signals can be analyzed. In this thesis, the scent of lavender, which stimulates the olfactory sense, is introduced to measure EEG with the International 10-20 electrode system on 16 channels, and to analyze the interrelationship between the original signals before the stimulation and the changed signals after the stimulation. Finally, the effect of the scent stimulation to the brain is analyzed. The purpose of this thesis is to apply these analyzed results to the computerized mapping of the brain signals and possible ways of specifying the source of the brain signals through various medical applications.

In the retail environment where online-shopping malls are growing, offline store are find it difficult to survive simply by selling their products. As a result, offline retailers are trying to find unique services that are appealing to their customers. In such a market environment, marketing strategies that stimulate the five senses other than the sight can be an alternative. Therefore, this research is aimed at observing the effect of the senses on emotion and purchase intention in a fashion retail context. A two by two experimental design (existence vs non-existence of scent x existence vs. nonexistence of eating chocolate) between subjects was used. A total of 120 participants were randomly assigned to the four situations, and they were asked to complete the questionnaires about emotion and purchase intention. The survey data were statistically analyzed using SPSS 23.0, and results are as follows. After a two-way ANOVA, we observed a statistically significant effect of the scent service on pleasure and purchase intention the sweet offering service on purchase intention. Moreover, when scents service and sweet offering service were provided at the same time, the highest purchase intention was obtained among other services. In addition, we studied the effects of emotions on purchase intentions, and the pleasant emotions resulting from the services have a positive effect of on purchase intentions.
