The purpose of this study was to analyze the difference in bakery choice attributes according to consumers' general characteristics and purchasing behavior. Among 350 questionnaires distributed to bakery consumers, 277 complete questionnaires (79.1%) were analyzed. Bakery choice attributes were classified into five factors: "environment and image", "bakery product features", "location", "employee service", and "price and sales promotion"; the mean scores of these factors' importance levels were 3.59, 3.58, 3.49, 3.36, and 3.00, respectively. Males considered 'employee service' factor significantly more than did females. Further, the importance level of 'employee service' factor was significantly greater as consumer's age increased. The importance levels of 'bakery product features' and 'employee service' factors were considered significantly more by consumers who spent KRW10,000-15,000 than those who spent KRW5,000 or less. 'Price and sales promotion' was considered to be more important by consumers who obtained information from the Internet than from the TV and radio. 'Location' factor was considered to be more significant as purchasing frequency increased. Such differences in importance level of bakery choice attributes according to consumers' gender, age, job, and purchasing behavior should be considered and applied to the development of marketing strategies targeted at consumers.

최근 UHDTV(ultra high definition television) 등의 고해상도 디스플레이가 시장에 등장하면서, 기존의 저해상도 FHD(full high definition) 영상을 고해상도 영상으로 변환할 수 있는 초해상화(super-resolution, SR) 기법들이 각광을 받고 있다. 그 중, 선형 매핑(linear mapping)을 사용하여 저해상도 패치(patch)로부터 고해상도 패치를 복원하는 초해상화 기법은 상대적으로 낮은 복잡도로 좋은 품질의 고해상도 영상을 생성한다. 그러나 이러한 기법은 단순한 선형 매핑을 기반으로 하기 때문에 복잡한 비선형적(nonlinear) 저해상도-고해상도 관계를 예측하기 힘든 단점이 있다. 최근 각광받는 딥러닝(deep learning) 기술은 다층(multi-layer) 네트워크를 쌓아 입력과 출력 간의 복잡한 비선형 관계를 훈련시켜 좋은 성능을 보이는데, 이를 바탕으로 본 논문에서는 다중의 레이어로 구성된 다층 선형 매핑(multi-layer linear mappings, MLLM)을 기반으로 하는 초해상화 기법을 새롭게 제안한다. 제안하는 다층 선형 매핑은 기존 선형 매핑보다 비선형적 관계를 더 잘 예측하여 높은 품질의 고해상도 영상을 생성할 수 있게 한다. 제안된 초해상화 기법은 딥러닝 기반 초해상화 기법과 필적하는 품질의 고해상도 영상을 생성하면서도 더 낮은 복잡도를 지니는 것을 확인하였다.

Paik Nam-June is known as a Video Artist. Video is a presentation tool with the feature of recordability. However, it is not only a video which has been applied as an art presentation tool by him. Nevertheless, the existing researches fail to notice the aesthetic concept which is shown as the rest contents or forms, as they focus on the media features of Paik Nam-June's video. Therefore, this article aims at contemplating the art world of Paik Nam-June with its contents as 'visualization of music' and its form as 'hypermediacy' Therefore, 1. Sound is shown as the visualization of music, with the direct influence of absolute hollowness and noise of John Cage, originated from Zen Buddhism, while the foundation of it is known to be from the liberation of dissonance of Arnold Schoenberg and creative impromptu of shamanic sound. 2. The from of TVs influence of the orchestra, originated from Culture of a dining table in Korean. and indicated hypermediacy 3. Paik Nam-June indicated 'Text-interpretation' us to text analytics of 'how to read', rather than the question of 'what to tell' by intermedia as the visualization of music & hypermediacy.

This paper presents a capacity estimation of a storage system accumulating all data sensed during the lifetime of an individual human being. The calculation assumes modern data compression and data collection schemes based on wearable or implanted devices under ubiquitous environment. More than 76% of the storage area is found to be used for video data storage of common TV image quality. The remaining storage area is for data from other sensing organs including audio, taste, olfactory and tactual systems in addition to indexing information. Total storage area of around 600 tera bytes is needed to cover 100 years of human life including his fetal period.

In this Paper, we present a new 3D viewing device based on field-sequential stereoscopic system. To extract signals for synchronization, common field-sequential stereoscopic system should insert extra equipment in the system(usually PC), or use internal signal of the system with software drivers. It causes several problems such as inconvenience, compatibility with hardware or OS, and reversed view of left and right image. In this paper, we propose new system that uses photo sensor sensing the light stimulus on the screen to extract synchronization and R/L distinction signals. This system will solve these problems and moreover it can operate in the internet or HDTV.

This study analyzed the effect of the intrinsic and extrinsic attributes of gochujang, Korean red chili paste, on purchasing intention and recommendation intention for consumption. Survey participants were female, married, aged 30 - 39 years, and highly educated with graduation from a university. Most participants purchased gochujang 1 - 2 times per year, most commonly at a shopping mall, and acquired information on the gochujang product from an advertisement or sponsored TV shows. For the factor analysis, five variables for intrinsic quality were considered: namely, healthiness, economics, convenience, diversity, and sense, whereas three variables were considered for extrinsic quality: trust, external appearance, and image. The factor analysis also confirmed the correlation between the validity and the reliability of the purchasing and recommendation intentions. The effect of intrinsic quality of gochujang on purchasing and recommendation intentions was tested through a multiple regression analysis. The purchase intention was most significantly affected by healthiness, cost, and convenience. On the other hand, the recommendation intention was most significantly affected by the diversity and, to a lesser degree, by the healthiness of the product. Among the extrinsic qualities, trust of consumers and the product appearance had a significant effect on purchasing intention. Recommendation intention was significantly affected by the appearance. And trust significantly influenced the recommendation. Therefore, a concrete and systematic marketing approach considering these factors.

This paper presents the concept of "interactive teleprompter", which provides the user with interaction with oneself or other users for live television broadcasts or smart mirrors. In such interactive applications, eye contacts between the user and the regenerated image or between the user and other persons are important in handling psychological processes or non-verbal communications. Unfortunately, it is not straightforward to address the eye contact issues with conventional combination of normal display and video camera. To address this problem, we propose an "interactive" teleprompter enhanced from conventional teleprompter devices. Our interactive teleprompter can recognize the user's gestures by applying infra-red (IR) depth sensor. This paper also presents test results for a beam splitter which plays a critical role for teleprompter and is designed to handle both visual light for RGB camera and IR for Depth sensor effectively.

This study examines Korea's international development volunteer program as a citizen diplomacy initiative. Informed by a cultural perspective of transmission and relational models of public diplomacy, I examine the ways in which volunteer training incorporates cultural-learning into its program. The study finds that volunteer training is largely based on an instrumentalist approach to culture that places emphasis on learning the "explicit" side of culture, such as Korean traditional dance, art, and food as a strategy to promote the country's national image. In contrast, much less covered in the training program is a relational approach to culture-learning that is guided by a reflexive understanding of the "implicit" side of culture, or the values and beliefs that guide the worldviews and behavior of both volunteers and host constituents. Whereas the value of the volunteer program as a citizen diplomacy initiative is in its potential to build relationships based on two-way engagement, its conception of culture is mostly guided by that of the transmission model of public diplomacy. Based on the findings, this study calls for an integrated approach to culture-learning in volunteer training program to move the citizen diplomacy initiative forward.

The purpose of this study is to examine the state of the character fashion which is worn everyday by people regardless of their sex, class, and age after the 1960's, and to look at its significance. Under the influence of mass media, TV, film, comic and popular music exercised its power over the modern living after the 1960's. Such culture has its character in youth, aspiration of wide spread and overflow of the visual image. While active life style and increase of time spent on sports and leisure created the casual trend in fashion. In addition to Pop Art leads to the usage of sign and symbol on clothes, and this created a trend called 'character fashion'. Character fashion can be divided into 'motive' and 'expression'. Motive then is segmented by the 'person' that includes an impersonated figure and 'symbol' of picture or figure with a special meaning. However, expression can be classified by 'one's belonging' which can be a sports team, school or a group. Also, by the 'message' of the phrase or letter. The meaning contained in character fashion by the various motive and expression can be classified as unisex, ego screaming, and escapism.
