Purpose: When we look at the object, we used the dominant eye mainly. For this reason, a prescription of the dominant eye is an important factor for glasses and contact lenses. This study evaluated visual acuity differences between dominant and nondominant eyes through analyzing refractive power changes in both eyes by the ages. Methods: This study was performed to investigate the relationship between refractive error and dominant eye which had the superiority in the function of binocular. 186 subjects without ocular disease were examined on the dominant eye. The dominant eye was examined by the Hole-in-the-card test. For the consistency of the measurements, we tested refractive power in three times by the same person. Results: Using SPSS, the relationship between vision and the dominant eye was analyzed. 135 people of the whole subjects have the dominant eye on right. The Number of the non-dominant eye is 51. We were divided into 3 types, the group under the age of 10 that begins to expose environment factor affect on vision (the average age $8.8{\pm}1.18$) and the age group of 10 to 20 that begins to change refractive power in earnest (the average age $14.1{\pm}2.58$) and the group after the age 20 that began to stabilize vision (the average age $51.8{\pm}17.51$). The visual acuity of dominant eye was higher than non-dominant eye in all age groups. Nevertheless, these results were not statistically significant. Mean astigmatism of dominant eye was smaller than the non-dominant eye, and this is significant, statistically (p=0.017<0.05). Conclusions: It is expected that the balanced eye with a lower level of astigmatism has a more possibility become a dominant eye.

Purpose: In this study, dominant eye is monitoring and level of dominant was measured in subjective and objective test. Methods: The average age of 21.08 years old of 129 adult (69 male, 60 female) who was no underlying ocular disease were participated in this study. dominant eye was determined by monocular instrument in subjecttive test and using a thin ring ($3.8cm{\times}3.8cm$) in objective test and level of dominant was measured direction of movement of the thin rim. Results: In the subjective test, there are 100 (77.52%) subjects whose dominant eye was right eye, and 29 (22.48%) subjects whose dominant eye was left eye. In the objective test, 90 (69.77%) subjects had right eye d and 33 (25.58%) subjects had left eye, as dominant eye, and 6 (4.65%) subjects had no dominant eye. Comparison of subjective test and objective test by dominant eye were equal in the 104 (80.62%) subjects, unequal in the 19 (14.73%) and center 6 (4.65%) subjects. The level of dominant eye in objective dominant eye test, there were middle 52 (57.78%) subjects, high 38 (42.22%) subjects in the right eye, and middle 25 (75.76%) subjects, high 8 (24.24%) subjects in the left eye. Conclusions: In this study O - Ring Test hasadvantage of direction and level of dominant eye, and middle or center dominant eye was shown in unequal. From this results, testing of dominant eye should be relationship equal and unequal, also required to be study in dominant eye level in binocular vision.

Purpose: The kappa angles of human eye were measured by photographs. The relationship between the dominant eye and far refractivity is studied. Methods: 112 adults participated in this study. The mean age was $22.54{\pm}5.90$ years. The kappa angles were measured by the deviation of the flash image in the photographs of eye. the dominant eye and the far refractivity were analyzed. Results: The distributions of kappa angles were 78.6% (176 eyes) in the positive angle, 15.2% (34 eyes) in the negative angle, and 6.2% (14 eyes) in the $0^{\circ}$. The kappa angles were $4.50{\pm}4.70^{\circ}$ for the dominant eye, $4.93{\pm}4.34^{\circ}$ for the non-dominant eye, $+6.00{\pm}2.22^{\circ}$ for the hypermetropia, $4.91{\pm}4.97^{\circ}$ for the emmetropia, and $+4.61{\pm}4.49^{\circ}$ for the myopia. The biggest kappa angles was odserved in the hypermetropia and the angles was getting smaller in the emmetropia, and the myopia. Conclusions: The kappa angle of the dominant eye was smaller than non-dominant eye. The kappa angle was smaller as the far refractivity is lower. The kappa angle can be directly measured by the photographic method.

Purpose: The purposes of this study are to investigate accommodative response among emmetropes, spectacle wearer and contact lens wearer, and correlation between refractive error and accommodative respons for each group. Methods: The 72 subjects(144 eyes) who do not have any ocular diseases were participate in this study. Subjects were categorized into emmetropes, spectacle wearer and contact lens wearer by refractive error using closed-field auto-refractometer. We measured dominant eye, naked/habitual visual acuity and refractive error of monocular/binocular vision of refractive error for far/near distance with open-field auto-refractometer and calculated accommodative lag. Results: There were no significant difference of accommodative lag between right and left eye dominant and non-dominant eye, monocular and binocular vision, and spectacle lens wearer and contact lens wearer, However the accommodative lag of binocular vision was severe than monocular vision at near. The lag of myopia was larger than emmetropes, and male was larger than female. Significant correlation was found between refractive error and accommodative lag in total subjects and the same result was found in emmetropes and contact lens wearer. However there were no significant correlation in the spectacle wearer. Conclusions: There were significant difference between emmetrops and myopes in terms of accommodative lag, however accommodative lag of spectacle wearer was not different with contact lens wearer in myopes. There were also significant correlation between refractive error and accommodative lag in emmetropes and contact lens wearer, but the accommodative lag of spectacle wearer was not significantly correlated with refractive error.

In order to make 3-D display technique a better tool to provide viewers with realistic stereoscopic experience, various researches have been done in the many relevant fields. This psychophysical study was designed to investigate whether there was any difference in the perceptual processing between a dominant and non-dominant eye when a 3-D cue was provided exclusively to only one eye. We measured the reaction time for detecting a depth change by providing the viewer's each eyes with differential 3-D stimuli, which have systematical patterns. We obtained that there was a consistent 3-D perceptual performance when the 3-D cue was provided to the viewers' left eye regardless of their eye dominance. The result suggests that it might be a better technique to arrange the camera for left eye to carry 3-D cues to get the viewer's consistent 3-D perception.

In the coastal region of Korea, historical tide harmonic constants were collected. Long-term tides and short-term tides observed by the KHOA were analyzed by a tide harmonic analysis method. Based on the harmonic constants, tidal characteristics such as tide asymmetry in Korean coastal waters were investigated. The harmonic constants obtained from the long-term tide data in the western coast have been used to show the relation between tide variation and reclamation project. $M_2$ amplitudes in the western coast have been decreased and $M_2$ phases were faster. $M_4$ amplitudes also were reduced and $M_4$ phases were faster in overall. In Mokpo and Kunsan tidal nonlinearity is relatively conspicuous. Overall, non-linearity of tidal currents is higher in the tidal channels flowing fast. The tidal non-linearity has increased by the development projects including large reclamation. The flood dominant characteristic in the northern and central part of Korean western coastal waters and the ebb dominant characteristic in the southern part have been intensified. The construction of Saemangeum sea dike has significantly changed the tidal characteristic in Korean western coastal waters.

Tidal asymmetry would occur owing to shallow water tides at the Western Coast of macro tidal area. Especially, as ebb dominance of Mokpo coastal zone is known as the most prominent in Korea, it had been studied by domestic researchers. The cause of ebb dominance in Mokpo area is considered due to extensive inter-tidal zone in Muan Bay, and this has been studied based on amplification ratio, relative phase and skewness of tide/tidal flow curves in order to analyze qualitative tidal asymmetry. Furthermore, it was possible to figure out tidal characteristics with the difference of tidal amplitude and phase with Mokpo Harbor by observing the tide for 15 days in Muan Bay, which showed 40 minutes shorter ebbing time than at Mokpo Harbor. In addition, tidal flow prediction data in Mokpo North Harbor and Mokpo-Gu were analyzed. Meanwhile, the basis regarding qualitative interpretation of bed sediment and suspended sediment was provided by examining the qualitative changes in tidal asymmetry for spring-neap tidal cycle through the PCA/SWA indices. In addition, by examining long-term changes of ebb dominance in Mokpo Port, tidal characteristics of the past, present and future in this area, which is related to tidal asymmetry, is also provided.

This paper presents a method that, by using a tree splay, dynamically modifies the fixed table of a VLC used in the standards and thus improves the performance of a video encoder. The previous standards, which drew up tables by using a limited number of images, were not able to accommodate the characteristics of new image input. The new method proposed in this paper employs the probabilistic characteristics of an image input, thus making encoding more effective. Furthermore, the present study also proposes a method to regulate the weight in order that the accumulated probabilities can make a dominant symbol emerge, while keeping the probability adequate and thus maximally accommodating the characteristics of the image input. The results from applying the proposed method to a variety of image sequences showed that, while various types of images yielded slightly different results, it improved the performance up to a maximum of 0.23㏈, compared to MPEG-4 standard.

Grain size analysis have been made for the carbonate-detrital mixed sediments on the continental shelf off the southeastern coast of Korea. The detrital components are well-sorted with mean grain size between 2-3 phi. The detrital components are thought to be deposited in the beach environment during the glacial times when the sea level was low, representing typical 'relict' sediments. Most of the carbonate components consist of shell fragments, and are deeply weathered. They are also interpreted as the relict components that were deposited in the shallow marine environment. The carbonate fraction are coarser-grained and poorly sorted compared to the detrital component. The carbonate components are thought to have experienced the continuous environmental control of fragmentation and selective size sorting after the deposition.
