The fractal image compression partitions an original image into blocks of equal size and searches a do-main block having self-similarity. This method of compression achieves high compression ratio because it is unnecessary to transmit the additional codebook to receiver and it provides good quality of reconstructed images. In spite of these advantages, this method has a drawback in which encoding time increase due to a complicated linear transformation for determining a similar-domain block. In this paper, a fast fractal image compression method is proposed by decreasing the number of transformation usings AC(alternating current) coefficients of block. The proposed method also has a good quality as compared with the well-known fractal codings. Furthermore, method also has a good quality as apply the video steganography that can conceal an important secret data.

Human palms contain discriminative features for proving the identity of each person. In this paper, we present a novel method for user verification based on palmprints and palm veins. Specifically, the region of interest (ROI) is first determined to be forced to include the maximum amount of information with respect to underlying structures of a given palm image. The extracted ROI is subsequently enhanced by directional patterns and statistical characteristics of intensities. For multispectral palm images, each of convolutional neural networks (CNNs) is independently trained. In a spirit of ensemble, we finally combine network outputs to compute the probability of a given ROI image for determining the identity. Based on various experiments, we confirm that the proposed ensemble method is effective for user verification with palmprints and palm veins.

The measurement of meat freshness at meat markets is important for the health of consumers. Currently a variety of sensors have been studied for the measurement of the meat freshness. Therefore, the analysis of sensor data is needed for the reduction of measurement errors. In this paper, we analyze the freshness measurement data of ten sensors based on deep learning. The measured data are composed of beef, pork and chicken, whose reliability and noise-robustness are examined by a deep neural network. Further, to search for multiple sensors better than a torrymeter, PCA (principle component analysis) is carried. Then, we validated that the performance of the three sensors outperforms the torrymeter in the experiment.

This study presents a 3-dimensional flow-structure interaction analysis of subsea risers in water flows. Two structural connectors (flat and circular couplers) were intentionally devised and numerically tested using ANSYS CFX to investigate how these couplers behave under the water flows. In the flow analysis, the water field was constructed with an inlet, outlet, and symmetric boundary conditions. As a result, the responses (drag coefficients and pressure fields) were obtained and the pressure fields were applied for the structural analysis. Finally, the structural responses (displacements and equivalent stresses) of the risers were measured to demonstrate the efficiency of the riser connectors.

A well designed disabled home needs to consider various design principles and variables. It should consider not only physical accessibility but also psychological aspects. Previous research studies have shown that barrier-free/universal designs which were primarily focused on physical access and usage of facilities and building operations. This research paper will examine, a selection of refurbished disabled homes, introduced by the Korean Disabled People's Development Institutes in 2013. The plan samples are to be analyzed using the Visual Access and Exposure spatial analysis program coupled with supporting information extracted from consultations and feedback from experienced professional disabled home staff members. This research paper aims to propose the usage and viability of VAE Analysis in the design and planning of disabled home layouts. The purpose of this study is to specify the differences in visual spatial relationships between the plans before and after refurbishment in accordance to staff and user requirements. This will ensure a bettered environment for the users and ensuring an optimized of spatial programming and building operation and usage.

The alternative energy has lately attracted considerable attention due to the high oil price and environment problem. Deep sea water that is one of the natural energy sources should be getting popular continually to reduce the environment problem. In this study, cooling system of deep sea water using heat exchangers of two hotels where is located in near Hae-undae Bay has been analyzed on the quantity of electricity comparison between existing cooling system and deep seawater cooling system. As shortly, the results of study showed that the first building approximately saves 370 millions won per year, also the second building saves 248 millions won per year. It means that the cooling system by using deep sea water has great worth to reduce the ratio of fossil fuel.

This study is a qualitative study to understand the meaning and the nature of catharsis experienced by the participants of the psychodrama group. Participants were four experts who had a long history of participating in the psychodrama group. In-depth interviews were held one by one from February to June 2018, and each interview took 1-2 hours. Data collected through in-depth interviews were analyzed using Colaizzi's phenomenological research method. The result is four categories and eight theme clusters. Intrinsic structure is represented by 'physical purification', 'psychological stability', 'cognitive insight', 'Spontaneous expansion'.

Deep-learning-based Super-Resolution (SR) methods were evaluated to reconstruct pressure fields with a high resolution from low-resolution images taken from a coarse grid simulation. In addition to a canonical SRCNN(super-resolution convolutional neural network) model, two modified models from SRCNN, adding an activation function (ReLU or Sigmoid function) to the output layer, were considered in the present study. High resolution images obtained by three models were more vivid and reliable qualitatively, compared with a conventional super-resolution method of bicubic interpolation. A quantitative comparison of statistical similarity showed that SRCNN model with Sigmoid function achieved best performance with less dependency on original resolution of input images.

본 연구에서는 국가가뭄정보통계집 내 실제 농경지 피해 사례를 바탕으로 농경지 피해영향지수라는 새로운 개념을 정의하고, 이를 산정하기 위한 방법론을 제안하였다. 먼저, 전국 15개 광역시·도를 대상으로 2018년부터 2021년까지 실제 발생한 가뭄피해 사례들을 심층 분석하고, 대상 지역 내 전체 농경지 면적 대비 농경지 피해 면적의 비율을 대표적인 농업가뭄 피해 인자로 선정하였다. 평년 대비 영농기 강수량 및 저수율을 가뭄영향인자로 고려한 후, 실제 가뭄 발생 당시 인자들 간의 직간접적인 관계를 파악하고, 그 영향 정도를 수치화하여 농경지 피해영향지수를 정의하였다. 추가로, 가뭄피해 발생시기의 농업용수 비상지원 사례에 주목하여 농업용수 비상지원 여부에 따른 가뭄인자의 조건별 농업가뭄 발생확률을 산정하고, 그 결과로부터 대상 지역별 상대위험도 및 농업가뭄 취약 정도를 비교·평가하였다. 본 연구를 통해 산정한 농경지 피해영향지수와 상대위험도는 국내 농업가뭄 취약지역을 선정하는 기준 마련에 도움을 줄 수 있고, 지역별 농업용수 지원의 효율성을 평가하는 요소로써 활용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

최근 호우의 빈도와 규모는 증가하는 추세이며 이에 따른 홍수 피해는 많은 피해를 야기하고 있다. 이러한 관점에서 홍수 피해에 대한 선제적 대응을 위한 요소로써 초단시간 강우예측 정보의 중요성은 매우 높다. 특히, 레이더 자료 기반의 강우예측은 수치예보모델과 비교하여 3시간 이내의 짧은 선행시간 이내의 높은 정확도를 갖고 있어 홍수예보에 다수 활용되고 있다. 최근에는 강우자료의 복잡한 관계와 특징을 고려하기 위해 딥러닝 기반의 강우예측 활용 사례가 증가하고 있으나 국내 적용 사례는 적어 관련 연구가 요구되는 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 레이더 강우를 활용한 딥러닝 기반의 강우예측 기법을 제안하고 이에 대한 적용성을 평가하고자 한다. 2차원 레이더 강우자료의 특징과 시계열 특성을 고려하기 위한 심층신경망 구조를 제안하였으며 기존 딥러닝 모형과의 비교를 통해 활용 가능성을 제시하고자 하였다. 적용 대상지역은 한강 유역으로 선정하였다. 정성적 평가를 위해 임계성공지수(CSI)를 활용하여 예측 강우에 대한 정확도를 평가하였으며 정량적 평가를 위해 예측 강우와 관측 강우의 상관관계를 분석하였다. 평가 결과, 제안하는 방법이 기존 모형과 비교하여 예측오차의 범위가 적고 강우의 위치 변화를 잘 반영하는 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구결과는 초단기간 강우예측 자료를 활용하는 홍수예보의 정확도 향상에 기여할 것으로 기대된다.
