실종자는 계속 늘어나는 추세이다. 경찰에서의 실종자 찾는 인력이 부족한 상황이다. 특히 청소년 실종과 달리 성인 실종의 경우 위치정보 파악과 같은 지원을 받기 힘들다. 또한 성인 실종의 경우 단순 가출의 경우가 많아 범죄 가능성이 없을 경우 실종자 탐색에 있어 후순위로 밀린다. 그에 따라 본 논문은 실종자 웹 탐색 시스템을 개발하여 실종자 가족은 실종자를 등록할 수 있게 제공해주며, 실종자정보를 손쉽게 공유할 수 있도록 하였다. 또한 목격자는 실종자를 목격했을 경우 제보하기를 통해서 목격된 정보를 추가할 수 있도록 하였다. 목격자가 제보를 할 경우에는 해당 실종자 가족에게 연락을 가도록 구현하였다.

The purpose of this article was to propose improvement of countermeasure for missing person cases. While current related other studies examined practice of the countermeasure from inner viewpoint of police authorities itself, this study focused on and analyzed concern or criticism expressed through mass media, outside of the authorities. For this purpose, we analyzed newspaper articles dealing with missing person issued during past 5 years with qualitative data analysis software. The analysis revealed that civil community demands immediacy of coping with missing, phased expertise, systemicity of the countermeasure, improvement of relating policy, and active liaison with community. According to the needs, we proposed advancing risk assessment procedure, enlarging dedicated team for missing case, improving profiling-input system, adding duty for family of missing person, and enhancing of function of control tower.

This study estimates the socioeconomic costs of missing children in Korea. The costs were classified as direct costs and indirect costs. The direct costs consisted of direct costs for searching for missing child such as making posters, transportation, and medical costs. The indirect costs were computed by the opportunity costs caused by child missing. The total costs that could be attributable to missing child were estimated to be about 570 million won per long-term missing child. This provides strong evidence that prevention of child missing is the most important and quick recovery after child is missing is the second most important. Missing child incurs substantial socioeconomic costs to the Korean society. Therefore, this study provides strong need for more interest from people who are indifferent to missing child issues and strong support for more government interventions to solve missing child problem in Korea. Further studies are needed to calculate socioeconomic costs of child missing more exactly.

The purpose of this study is to suggest legalization of private investigation system by giving an example of Japanese detective investigation on people who have been missing for a long time. To accomplish the research purpose, this study reviewed literature and used preceding researches on Japanese detective system to complete theoretical background. This study also identified the missing people in Korea and Japan to accomplish the research purpose. Conclusion: In Japan, about 80,000 people are reported to be missing every year. Although most of them are found on that day or within a week, some of them are not found for more than a week. There even a case where the person was missing for more than 3 years. In such case, the Japanese citizens requests detectives to find the missing person instead of depending on the police. When Japanese detectives are paid by their client, they provide the security service requested by the client. Japanese detectives receive about 100,000 yen to 700,000 yen for finding missing person and they find the missing person through investigation on voluntary or involuntary missing person. Such activities of Japanese detectives point out the necessity of introducing private investigation system in Korea. Currently, most missing people are not found in Korea. Introduction of private investigation system will help in finding the missing person, reducing the excessive workload of police, and creating jobs.

In investigating missing persons cases, the focus is on strengthening the efficiency of detectives' work in investigating missing persons cases. Disappearance cases are seen as a problem that directly affects social safety and individual well-being. The research has the following structure. The introduction presents the necessity, scope, and methodology of the study. Next, we analyze the definition, causes, types and actual conditions of disappearance cases. In terms of problems in the process of handling missing persons cases, the initial response process, problems in the response of related agencies after reporting, problems due to the prolongation of the case, and problems due to legal restrictions are analyzed. In the plan to improve the work efficiency of detectives for disappearance cases, the revitalization of public interest investigation networks, strengthening of capacity related to disappearance case investigation, professional public interest detective certification system, and establishment of exception provisions for detective activities are discussed. In the conclusion, we present what is necessary for the activities of public interest detectives specializing in missing persons cases.

본 논문에서는 실종자 데이터베이스에 등록된 실종자에 대한 색인으로 텍스트 기반의 통제 색인만을 사용할 때 발생하는 문제점에 대한 해결책을 다룬다. 기존 실종자를 등록할 때 함께 등록하게 되는 실종자에 대한 이미지는 정형화 할 수 없어 실종자 조회에 사용될 수 없었다. 이러한 문제점을 해결하고자 OpenCV와 TensorFlow 를 이용하여 영상의 유사도를 추출함으로써 실종자의 이미지를 정형화시켜 유의미한 정보로 변경하여 사용하고자 하는 방법을 제안한다.

실종자를 찾는 빈번한 안전재난문자로 인해 피로도가 높아짐에 따라 본 연구에서는 실종자 탐색 문자 발송량을 줄이기 위해 드론과 인공지능을 활용하여 도시에서의 실종자 탐색의 가능성을 제시한다. 실시간으로 얼굴을 인식하여 실종자를 탐색하는 접근 방식을 사용하여 구현해 실종자 탐색이 가능함을 보였고 이를 통해 인구 밀집 지역에서의 실종자 탐색이 효율적일 것으로 기대한다.

본 논문에서는 수중 초음파 전송을 이용하여 해양 사고 발생 시 수중 실종자의 신원과 위치를 파악할 수 있는 재난 대응 시스템을 제안한다. 실종자 몸에 부착된 초음파 발생기에서 나온 신호를 해상에 배치된 다수의 하이드로폰 센서 노드에서 감지, 분석해 저전력 통신으로 선박 등에 설치된 중앙 제어시스템에 보내면 이를 분석해 실종자의 위치 등을 판별할 수 있어 수색 작업에 큰 도움이 될 것으로 기대된다.

This paper proposes color segmentation for detecting missing persons in a smart lighting system using radar and camera sensors. Recently, smart lighting systems built-in radar and cameras have been efficient in saving energy and searching for missing persons, simultaneously. In smart lighting systems, radar detects moving objects and then the lights turn on and camera records. The video recorded is useful to find out missing persons. The color of their clothes worn in missing persons is one of critical hints to look for missing persons. Therefore, color segmentation is an effective means for detecting the color of their clothes. In this paper, during the color segmentation step, the ROI(Region of interest) setting based on the size of an object is applied and the background is reduced. According to experimental results, the color segmentation has good accuracy of more than 97%.
