Many researchers have developed a series of vision-based technologies to monitor construction sites automatically. To achieve high performance of vision-based technologies, it is essential to build a large amount and high quality of training image database (DB). To do that, researchers usually visit construction sites, install cameras at the jobsites, and collect images for training DB. However, such human and site-dependent approach requires a huge amount of time and costs, and it would be difficult to represent a range of characteristics of different construction sites and resources. To address these problems, this paper proposes a framework that automatically constructs a training image DB using web crawling techniques. For the validation, the authors conducted two different experiments with the automatically generated DB: construction work type classification and equipment classification. The results showed that the method could successfully build the training image DB for the two classification problems, and the findings of this study can be used to reduce the time and efforts for developing a vision-based technology on construction sites.

This study analyzed status and demand of participation in lifelong education for 218 residents of low-income class according to National Basic Livelihood Security Act. The results of the study are as follows. First, among the statuses of participation in lifelong education, the abilities to study of the low-income class were reviewed. They showed 95.3% of foreign language ability, 66.1% of ICT utilization capacity and 75.7% of computer literacy ability. And the lifelong education participation rate of low-income people was 75.7% It was considered as passive participation in education. Voluntary participation was identified and analyzed. The the actual participation rate in lifelong education was very low at 22.9%. Social participation and awareness according to participation in lifelong education was 43.3% higher than that of respondents who had no participation experience. Especially, voluntary participants showed 73.3% higher than those who did not participate. Second, as a result of analyzing lifelong education of low income class, 74.8% of the respondents answered that there is wished education program. And 50.0% of them could not participate because they did not have enough time. The programs that they wanted to participate in were the programs that could help their real lives such as home life, health and medical courses, professional qualification obtaining process, etc. This indicates that the income level plays a significant role in participation in lifelong education. As a result of analyzing the results of this study above, Korean lifelong education is emphasized and the participation rate is increasing rapidly. However, participation of low-income class in lifelong education seems low.

기계 가공품의 정밀화, 경량화 요구로 난색재로 분류되는 비철분야 및 복합재 가공용 공구개발에 대한 수요가 급증하고 있으나, 기존 난삭재 가공 시 절삭공구의 마모가 빠르고, 상대재의 융착 불량 등이 공구 수명 감소의 주요 영향으로 보고된다. 상기문제를 해결하기 위해 절삭가공 공정 중 과다한 절삭유의 사용에 따른 가공비용, 에너지소모 증가, 환경오염 등으로 절삭유의 최소화 또는 절삭유를 사용하지 않는 표면처리기술등의 친환경 가공기술의 개발이 필요하다. 내융착 및 내마모 특성 향상을 위한 표면코팅 방법으로 수소가 포함되지 않은 고경도 비정질 카본 (ta-C)이 있으나, ta-C 코팅 막은 경도 30 - 80 GPa, 잔류응력 3 - 10 GPa 범위로 일반 경질 코팅 막 (AlTiN, TiSiCrN : 평균 3 GPa)에 비해 높고 산업적 활용이 가능한 0.5 - 1.5 um 두께 수준의 후막화가 힘들어 매우 우수한 절삭공구용 코팅 막 특성에도 불구하고 적용사례가 매우 적다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 아크플라즈마 방식 (Filtered Cathode Vacuum Arc Plasma, FCVA)을 활용한 고경도/무수소 카본 코팅 막을 후막형태로 증착하여 비철금속가공용 절삭 공구류의 수명향상 기법을 제시하고자 한다. ta-C 코팅 막의 기초 공정개발 단계에서는 바이어스 전압, 공정시간을 달리하여 ta-C 코팅 막의 기계적 물성(경도: $50{\pm}3GPa$, 잔류응력: $6{\pm}1GPa$, 밀착력: 30N 이상 및 트라이볼로지 특성: 마찰계수 0.1 이하, 마멸량: $1.85{\times}10-14mm^3$)을 확보하여 절삭공구로의 공정실용화 적용검토를 실시하였다. ta-C 코팅 막은 (1) WC 공구 및 기존 상용품인 (2) TiAlN/TiN/WC 구조에 대해 증착을 실시하였으며 코팅 막의 두께 변화에 따른 실제 절삭환경에서의 내수명 관측을 진행하였다. 시험결과, ta-C/WC의 단일막 구조인 절삭공구의 경우, 실제 절삭환경에서 쉽게 박리가 발생하여 코팅 막으로서의 효과를 나타내지 못하였다. 이는, 기초 공정개발 단계에서의 밀착력 기준이 실제 환경과 부합하지 않는 것을 의미하며 추후 공정개선을 통해 극복하고자 한다. 반면에, 상용품인 (2) TiAlN/TiN/WC 구조의 절삭공구 대비 ta-C/TiAlN/TiN/WC 구조에서 내수명 증가는 약 2.5배 (기존 300회, 코팅 후 800회)로 증가하였으며 ta-C 코팅 막의 두께가 $0.6-0.8{\mu}m$일 때 최대치를 취한 후 감소하였다. 이를 통해, 절삭공구로의 ta-C 코팅 막 효과는 최외각 층의 두께 범위와 모재 강도보강을 할 수 있는 적절한 중간층 막 (TiN/TiAlN 층)이 혼합되어 나타난 것으로 사료되며 현재 산업계로의 적용을 위한 대량생산용 코팅장비의 개발 및 비용절감을 위한 공정개발이 진행 중이다.

The objective of this paper is to determine the conditions of road surface by utilizing the images collected from closed-circuit television (CCTV) cameras installed on roadside. First, a technique was examined to detect wet surfaces at nighttime. From the literature reviews, it was revealed that image processing using polarization is one of the preferred options. However, it is hard to use the polarization characteristics of road surface images at nighttime because of irregular or no light situations. In this study, we proposes a new discriminant for detecting wet and dry road surfaces using CCTV image data at night. To detect the road surface conditions with night vision, we applied the wavelet packet transform for analyzing road surface textures. Additionally, to apply the luminance feature of night CCTV images, we set the intensity histogram based on HSI(Hue Saturation Intensity) color model. With a set of 200 images taken from the field, we constructed a detection criteria hyperplane with SVM (Support Vector Machine). We conducted field tests to verify the detection ability of the wet road surfaces and obtained reliable results. The outcome of this study is also expected to be used for monitoring road surfaces to improve safety.

In recent high performance computing system, GPGPU has been widely used to process general-purpose applications as well as graphics applications, since GPU can provide optimized computational resources for massive parallel processing. Unfortunately, GPGPU doesn't exploit computational resources on GPU in executing general-purpose applications fully, because the applications cannot be optimized to GPU architecture. Therefore, we provide GPU research guideline to improve the performance of computing systems using GPGPU. To accomplish this, we analyze the negative factors on GPU performance. In this paper, in order to clearly classify the cause of the negative factors on GPU performance, GPU core status are defined into 5 status: fully active status, partial active status, idle status, memory stall status and GPU core stall status. All status except fully active status cause performance degradation. We evaluate the ratio of each GPU core status depending on the characteristics of benchmarks to find specific reasons which degrade the performance of GPU. According to our simulation results, partial active status, idle status, memory stall status and GPU core stall status are induced by computational resource underutilization problem, low parallelism, high memory requests, and structural hazard, respectively.

This study examined the meaning of instructional materials by observing the daily work of an infant class in a daycare center to make some suggestions on the accreditation and evaluation of instructional materials for early childhood education and educare. Ethnography was chosen to determine in detail what the instructional materials meant for the selected preschoolers. The activities that belonged to each area of free optional activities and made use of instructional materials were observed, and the eating time, nap time, and outdoor play were all observed. The data were gathered by visiting the selected daycare center. A participant observation and teacher interviews were conducted, and notes were taken on the spot. When their verbal expressions and nonverbal expressions needed to be observed owing to their unique characteristics, a camcorder was used to record their words to have a more profound understanding of them. All the collected data that included this researcher's observation note, the teacher interview data, the standard childcare curriculum manual, the daycare center's yearly, and the daily childcare plans and curriculum evaluation data were classified and categorized by performing an inductive analysis. As a result, the instructional materials had three meanings for the infants. The first was "friends who welcomed them and whom they could play with.' The second was "a cozy nest," and the third was "another teacher." Given the findings of the study, the preparation of standards for instructional materials for infants in childcare facilities is required, and even equipment that is used as instructional materials should be taken into consideration when instructional materials for infants are accredited.

The purpose of this study was to investigate changes to visual expressions in apartment sales ads in newspapers since the 2000s. For this purpose, the study compared and examined advertisements in 2010~2018 for their content. Apartment sales ads in the newspapers of Busan were analyzed according to the types of visual expressions and advertisement models. The brands(national and local brands) were categorized according to the types of visual expressions(copywriting-centric, visual-centric, and mixed ones) and whether an advertisement model was used or not(used and not used). The findings show that visual-centric ads were most used in apartment sales ads by national brands in 2010~2011 and recorded a higher usage rate by local brands during the same period. In 2017~2018, mixed forms of visual expressions were used more in the ads. The percentage of visual-centric ads made a considerable decrease among local brands. As for the use of advertisement models, most of the brands used one in 2010~2011, but advertisement models almost disappeared in apartment sales ads in 2017~2018. These differences were more prominent among local brands. The findings indicate that there were differences in expressive strategies in apartment sales ads among brands. The findings are expected to provide useful practical implications for the visual expression strategies of apartment sales ads.

As a follow-up research of a qualitative study conducted by Lee(2015), this study needed to carry out a quantitative research targeting not a group of experts but of working-level staff and verify the validity of the assessment scales. As far as the study learned from an exploratory factor analysis of the preliminary research, these 12 questions that were incorrectly categorized or that presented outliers had to be removed and as a consequence, the researcher of the study was led to an outcome(75 Items) that would correspond to this factor structure which one had temporarily set up. For the next step, in order to carry out a confirmatory factor analysis, the study worked on verification on a four-stage structural equation model with each of the factors which the researcher had established applied by stage. In the end, a result to confirm how the model's goodness of fit eventually increases with the factors which the researcher had set up added was gained and lastly, another outcome to agree to the hair designers' expertise practice model which the researcher had created was obtained. In the meantime, in terms of the assessment scales which this study has discussed, the study assumes that since the scales accepted a self-rating method, it may lead not only to increase in expertise through self-reflection but also to establishment of a rational class system based on results of objective expertise measuring but not of subjective judgment by superiors.

The purpose of this study is to clarify the architectural meaning of the term 'Whole life Department Store' that appeared in newspapers' in the 1980s. A term of 'Whole Life Department Store' is appeared to explain the emergence of department stores, including the space for a wide range of programs and services they need to live, as well as sales. This word, "Whole life", is a compound of the Whole(全) and Life(生活) and word means the entire life. This will assume that you are separated life. So I was thinking that it could be described as regional facilities that classify and distinguish the necessary space for living and building maintenance, etc. in city and architecture since the modern. And Based on this, I would understand the whole life department as regional facilities. Generally a department store is a regional facilities for higher level living area. I analyzed the location and program of department stores at the time of the emergence of the term. Through this analysis department store was located in the daily range around the apartment complex and contained spaces for the daily life of the inhabitants apartment complex. It is significant in this particular department to be valid today and the term of 'Whole Life' department store is not longer used.
