By inputting consumer satisfaction as an exogenous variable into the value-based adoption model, this study explored the factors that influence the user's intention to continue using image-centered generative AI. Briefly presenting the main results, first, enjoyment did not significantly affect perceived value, but usefulness had a positive effect on perceived value. Second, Fee and technicality had a negative effect on perceived value. Third, perceived value had a positive effect on consumer satisfaction and continuous use intention. Fourth, consumer satisfaction had a positive effect on continuous use intention. Based on the above results, it is important to recognize the usefulness of image-centered generated AI and enjoyment in the process of use in order to increase the user's intention to continue using image-centered generated AI, and at the same time, it will be important to increase the user's perceived value and satisfaction by minimizing the reasonable fee and complexity in the method of use at the level acceptable to the users.

Since ChatGPT was released in 2022, the generative artificial intelligence (AI) industry has seen massive growth and is expected to bring significant innovations to cognitive tasks. AI-based image generation, in particular, is leading major changes in the digital world. This study investigates the technical foundations of Midjourney, Stable Diffusion, and Firefly-three notable AI image generation tools-and compares their effectiveness by examining the images they produce. The results show that these AI tools can generate realistic images of tomatoes, strawberries, paprikas, and cucumbers, typical crops grown in greenhouse. Especially, Firefly stood out for its ability to produce very realistic images of greenhouse-grown crops. However, all tools struggled to fully capture the environmental context of greenhouses where these crops grow. The process of refining prompts and using reference images has proven effective in accurately generating images of strawberry fruits and their cultivation systems. In the case of generating cucumber images, the AI tools produced images very close to real ones, with no significant differences found in their evaluation scores. This study demonstrates how AI-based image generation technology can be applied in agriculture, suggesting a bright future for its use in this field.

In this paper, we investigated the implementation of a hairstyle recommendation system based on big data and deepfake technology. The proposed hairstyle recommendation system recognizes the facial shapes based on the user's photo (image). Facial shapes are classified into oval, round, and square shapes, and hairstyles that suit each facial shape are synthesized using deepfake technology and provided as videos. Hairstyles are recommended based on big data by applying the latest trends and styles that suit the facial shape. With the image segmentation map and the Motion Supervised Co-Part Segmentation algorithm, it is possible to synthesize elements between images belonging to the same category (such as hair, face, etc.). Next, the synthesized image with the hairstyle and a pre-defined video are applied to the Motion Representations for Articulated Animation algorithm to generate a video animation. The proposed system is expected to be used in various aspects of the beauty industry, including virtual fitting and other related areas. In future research, we plan to study the development of a smart mirror that recommends hairstyles and incorporates features such as Internet of Things (IoT) functionality.

In this study, a process of re-creating Jindo Buk Chum, one of the traditional Korean arts, into digital art using various artificial intelligence technologies was proposed. The audience's emotional data, quantified through artificial intelligence language analysis technology, intervenes in various object forms in the projection mapping performance and affects the big story without changing it. If most interactive arts express communication between the performer and the video, this performance becomes a new type of responsive performance that allows the audience to directly communicate with the work, centering on artificial intelligence emotion analysis technology. This starts with 'Chuimsae', a performance that is common only in Korean traditional art, where the audience directly or indirectly intervenes and influences the performance. Based on the emotional information contained in the performer's 'prologue', it is combined with the audience's emotional information and converted into the form of images and particles used in the performance to indirectly participate and change the performance.

As digital·AI-based teaching and learning is emphasized, discussions on the educational use of generative AI are becoming more active. This study analyzed the mathematical performance of ChatGPT 4, Claude 3 Opus, and Gemini Advanced on solving examples and problems from five first-year high school math textbooks. As a result of examining the overall correct answer rate and characteristics of each skill for a total of 1,317 questions, ChatGPT 4 had the highest overall correct answer rate of 0.85, followed by Claude 3 Opus at 0.67, and Gemini Advanced at 0.42. By skills, all three models showed high correct answer rates in 'Find functions' and 'Prove', while relatively low correct answer rates in 'Explain' and 'Draw graphs'. In particular, in 'Count', ChatGPT 4 and Claude 3 Opus had a correct answer rate of 1.00, while Gemini Advanced was low at 0.56. Additionally, all models had difficulty in explaining using Venn diagrams and creating images. Based on the research results, teachers should identify the strengths and limitations of each AI model and use them appropriately in class. This study is significant in that it suggested the possibility of use in actual classes by analyzing the mathematical performance of generative AI. It also provided important implications for redefining the role of teachers in mathematics education in the era of artificial intelligence. Further research is needed to develop a cooperative educational model between generative AI and teachers and to study individualized learning plans using AI.

최근 딥러닝 기술의 발달로 물체 탐지를 위한 객체 인식 분야가 기계학습을 접목한 연구가 급격히 증가하고 있다. 하지만, 탐지하려는 물체가 다른 객체에 가려진 경우와 같이 특수한 상황에 대한 데이터의 수량이 부족하여 성능 저하를 야기한다는 점과, 객체 탐지 수행 과정에서 작은 객체의 탐지가 어렵다는 한계점이 있다. 본 연구는 전술한 문제점을 보완할 방법을 제안한다. 데이터 증강 기법을 이용하여 클래스가 부족한 데이터의 양을 늘려 학습 데이터를 증강시켰다. 한편, SRGAN을 사용하여 작은 객체를 확대시킨 뒤 이미지를 합성시켜 데이터를 구성하였다. 제안된 방법은 PyTorch 환경에서 YOLOv5를 수행한 결과, 객체 탐지 성능이 향상되는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.
