Mobile phone has become one of the essential items in our daily life. In Korea, it is estimated that more than 20 million cell phones are discarded each year due to advancement in technology, thus creating disposal and environmental pollution. In order to conserve the resources, their proper recycling is essential as it contains both valuable and toxic metals. The economics of the recycling will depend on the amount and value of the metals. Therefore, it is necessary to determine the composition of the metals present in the different cell phones. In the present study, a report is presented on the variation of metal content per year of waste mobile phones. A review has been made for the mobile phones manufactured during the period 2000-2009 and metal content of the printed circuit boards (PCBs) by analyzing their metals. An example of the precious metal palladium and of the heavy metal lead shows the decreasing trend.

Atmospheric aerosols, small particles in the atmosphere, are one of the important parameters in climate change and human health. Additionally, accurate estimates of aerosol species are increasingly important in environmental impact assessment studies. Recent advances in global satellite remote sensing provide powerful tool for air quality monitoring. This study explores the potential usage of satellite derived data such as atmospheric aerosols for air quality monitoring as well as climate change study. The objectives of this study is to understand the general features of the global distribution of type dependent aerosols. A detailed spatio-temporal variability of the each different satellite dataset shows the variation of the global zonal average and specific geographical regions where the strong emission sources are located. Especially, significantly large aerosol amounts are observed in Asia and Africa because of the desert dust storm, anthropogenic and biomass burning emissions.

Glycyrrhizae Radix is an herbal medicine vulnerable to fungi. So there are regulations on mycotoxins. Therefore, in this study, the affect of various drying methods and additional gamma irradiation (10 kGy) was studied to suppress the microbial generation of Glycyrrhizae Radix. As a result of detecting and comparing microorganisms using the dry film method for samples prepared by each of natural, hot air, freezing, microwave drying and gamma irradiation, the affect of reducing microorganisms by microwave drying and gamma irradiation was confirmed. There was no statistically significant change in the content of the active compounds between the treatment groups.

We present a method that can recognize face images using independent component analysis that is used mainly for blind sources separation in signal processing. We assumed that a face image can be expressed as the sum of a set of statistically independent feature images, which was obtained by using independent component analysis. Face recognition was peformed by projecting the input image to the feature image space and then by comparing its projection components with those of stored reference images. We carried out face recognition experiments with a database that consists of various varied face images (total 400 varied facial images collected from 10 per person) and compared the performance of our method with that of the eigenface method based on principal component analysis. The presented method gave better results of recognition rate than the eigenface method did, and showed robustness to the random noise added in the input facial images.

현재 내용 기반 검색에 대해서 많은 연구가 이루어지고 있다. 본 논문은 이러한 내용기반 검색 방법중에서 영상의 방향 성분을 이용한 텍스쳐 영상 검색 방법을 제안한다. 본 논문에서 제안하는 검색방법은 웨이블릿(Wavelet) 변화후에 생기는 고대역 부밴드들의 Energy 값을 가지고 텍스쳐 영상의 방향 성분을 구한 다음에 방향 성분에 따른 고대역 부밴드의 Energy와 저대역 부밴드의 GLCM(Gray Level Co-occurence Matrix) Energy 값을 가지고 텍스쳐 영상을 검색하도록 하는 방식으로, 실험을 통해서 검색시 좋은 결과를 보여주는 것을 알 수 있었다.

매년 4월경 기장 대변항에서는 기장 멸치회 축제가 열리며, 전국 각지에서 기장 지역에서만 맛 볼수 있는 멸치회를 즐기기 위해 모여든다. 기장 지역의 멸치회는 쑥갓, 마나리 등의 신선한 야채와 양념장을 버무려서 먹는 형태이며, 이로 인하여 여러 가지 야채들의 영양성분과 칼슘과 양질의 아미노산, 고도불포화 지방산, 비타민, 정미성분 등을 함유하고 있는 멸치를 섭취함으로써 영양적으로 대단히 우수하다. (중략)
