While recognition of isolated units of writing, such as a character or a word, has been extensively studied, emphasis on the segmentation itself has been lacking. In this paper we propose an active segmentation method for handwritten Hangul address strings based on the Run-length code. A slant correction algorithm, which is considered as an important preprocessing step for the segmentation, is presented. Three fundamental candidate estimation functions are introduced to detect the clues on touching points, and the classification of touching types is attempted depending on the structural peculiarity of Hangul. Our experiments show segmentation performance of 88.2% on touching characters with minimal over-segmentation.

파장 다중 분할 Ethernet PON(Passive Optical Network)은 최근 들어 활발하게 연구되고 있는 경제적이고 효율적인 가입자망 구조이다. 가입자망의 구조가 다양하게 진화하고 광 이더넷 기술이 발전하면서 가입자에게 최적의 대역폭을 할당하기 위해 파장 다중 분할 Ethernet PON에서도 서비스별 대역폭 할당방식을 제공해야 할 필요성이 커지고 있다. 따라서, 본 논문에서는 사용자의 대역폭 요구에 따라 OLT(Optical Line Termination)가 각 ONU(Optical Network Unit)에게 서로 다른 방식으로 대역폭을 할당하는 과장 다중 분할 Ethernet PON 모델을 제시하고 구현한다. 그리고, ONU의 큐잉 지연과 단대단 Etherent 지연에 대한 분석을 통해 모델의 효율성을 제시한다.

심장질환을 예방하기 위하여 정기적인 검진을 통한 심장 운동기능 분석과 관찰이 중요하며, 심장 기능의 분석은 좌심실의 수동윤곽분할을 통하여 혈류량과 심박구출률 계산을 통해 이루어진다. 본 논문에서는 심장단축 자기공명영상에서 좌심실을 자동분할하기 위한 연구에 대하여 설명한다. 관측자의 간섭을 최소화하고 심장기능 분석을 자동화하기 위한 자동 초기점을 추출한 후에, 그래프 탐색을 통하여 복잡한 심장 구조와 다양한 촬영환경에 적용할 수 있는 좌심실 분할 알고리즘을 제안한다. 실험 결과에 따르면 자동 초기점 추출 알고리즘의 성능은 86.8%로 나타났고, 진행 중인 그래프 탐색 알고리즘도 유용한 결과를 나타내고 있다.

Procurement System for Korean construction industry has mainly been controlled by the complicated regulatory system which has been recognized as unflexible and remotely separated from the global standard. This has been identified by many Korean construction experts as one of the main reasons that hamper the Korean construction industry becoming the global leader. One commonly discussed regulatory system is the compulsory multiple contracting system that has been enforced for a long time. According to the Korean governmental contracting law 68-3, all construction projects cannot be divided into separate contracting packages with a few exceptions. Exceptions stated in the law include construction activities related electrical, Information communication, fire-fighting, and cultural assets which all are governed by the separate laws/acts controlled by the different governmental bodies. This research is to closely investigate multiple prime contracting system that has been compulsory in Korean construction industry and to provide policy recommendations to these restrictions. Although, there has been a long history of this compulsory contracting system, this study attempted to provide objective analysis on current status of the system as well as global standard on the issue. This study suggests main considerations when considering different contracting system such as rights of owners, flexibilities of regulatory systems, and efficiencies of conducting a construction project. It is envisioned that recommendations from this study, if accepted by the regulatory bodies, would improve the Korean construction contraction system by making it more compatible with global standard. Moreover, these would help making the Korean industry more effective in terms of regulatory restrictions.

In this paper, we suggest a new direct method for mage segmentation using texture and color information combined through a multivariate linear discriminant algorithm. The color texture is computed in nin 3${\times}$3 masks obtained from each 3${\times}$3${\times}$3 spatio-spectral neighborhood in the image using the classical haralick and Pressman texture features. Among these 9${\times}$28 texture features the best set was extracted from a training set. The resulting set of 10 features were used to segment an image into four different regions. The resulting segmentation was Compared to classical color and texture segmentation methods using both box classifiers and maximum likelihood classification. It compared favourably on the test image from a Fastred-Lightgreen stained prostatic histological tissue section based on visual inspection. The classification accuracy of 97.5% for the new method obtained on the training data was also among the best of the tested methods. If these results hold for a larger set of images, this method should be a useful tool for segmenting images where both color and texture are relevant for the segmentation process.

Living donor liver transplantation is increasingly performed as an alternative to cadaveric transplantation. Preoperative screening of the donor candidates is very important. The quality, size, and vascular and biliary anatomy of the liver are best assessed with magnetic resonance (MR) imaging or computed tomography (CT). In particular, the volume of the potential graft must be measured to ensure sufficient liver function after surgery. Preoperative liver segmentation has proved useful for measuring the graft volume before living donor liver transplantations in previous studies. In these studies, the liver segments were manually delineated on each image section. The delineated areas were multiplied by the section thickness to obtain volumes and summed to obtain the total volume of the liver segments. This process is tedious and time consuming. To compensate for this problem, automatic segmentation techniques have been proposed with multiplanar CT images. These methods involve the use of sequences of thresholding, morphologic operations (ie, mathematic operations, such as image dilation, erosion, opening, and closing, that are based on shape), and 3D region growing methods. These techniques are complex but require a few computation times. We made a phantom for volume measurement with pig and evaluated actual volume of spleen and liver of phantom. The results represent that our semiautomatic volume measurement algorithm shows a good accuracy and repeatability with actual volume of phantom and possibility for clinical use to assist physician as a measuring tool.

Despite rapid growth of the global SW market, the Korean market still has a long way to go to impact global power nations. What is the reason that holds back of the No. 1 high-speed Internet country in terms of SW development? It is lack of the foundation for development of the Korean SW industry. In this context, the Korean government declared SW-oriented society and developed polices for each sector; Regarding movement that tries to apply the SW partitioning order institution in public sector to IT projects, this research aims to study SI project problems expected when conducting the SW partitioning order institution and improvements focusing on the public sector that accounts for about 30% of the entire SW industry. SW partitioning order institution is divided into planning-design and development-realization stages, which may cause problems when it is applied to SI projects. As such, the study analyzed SI projects and separate and partitioning order, exemplary cases and examples of industrial projects related to partitioning order, and drew improvement measures from institutional, technological and managerial viewpoints. The research aims to help people involved in IT projects sell SW at proper prices and improve the environment, and presents directions to create a system that strengthens competitiveness of the SW industry and SI projects by providing solutions to problems that suppliers and demanders should recognize before implementing the SW partitioning order institution.
