This study produces quantitatively weather entropy and information ratio using information theory about frequency in the appearance of precipitation phenomenon and monthly change, and then applies them to observation of the change of their space scale by time. As a result of these, this study defines Pusan, Chongju and Kwangju's weather representativeness and then establishes the range of weather representativeness. Based on weather entropy (statistical parameter)-the amount of average weather information-and information ratio, we can define each area's weather representativeness, which can show us more constant form included topographical, geographical factors and season change. The data used for this study are the daily precipitotion and cloudiness during the recent five years($1990{\sim}1994$) at the 69 stations in Korea. It is divided into class of no precipitation, that of precipitation. The results of this study can be summarized as follows: (1) The four season's mean value of information ratio is the highest value. as 0.641, on the basis of Chongju. It is the lowest as 0.572, on the basis of Pusan. On a seasonal basis, the highest mean value of information rate is April's (spring) in Chongju, and the lowest is October's(fall) in Pusan. Accordingly weather representativeness has the highest in Chongju and the lowest in Pusan. (2) To synthesize information ratio of decaying tendancy and half-decay distance, Chonju's weather representativeness has the highest in April, July and October. And kwangju has the highest value in January and the lowest in April and July. Pusan's weather representativeness is not high, that of Pusan's October is the lowest in the year. (3) If we establish the weather representative character on the basis of Chongju-Pusan, the domain of Chongju area is larger than that of Pusan area in October, July and April in order. But Pusan's is larger than Chongju's in January. In the case of Chongju and Kwangju, the domain of Chongju area is larger than that of Kwangju in October, July and April in order, but it is less than that of Kwangju area in January. In the case of Kwangju-Pusan, the domain of Kwangju is larger than that of Pusan in October, July in order. But in April it is less than Pusan's.

The defining of weather forecasting regions is possible. since the representativeness of regional weather can by reasonably clarified in terms of weather entropy and the use of information ratio. In this paper, the weather entropy and information ratio were derived numerially from using the information theory. The typical weather characteristics were clarified and defined in the homogeneous weather forecasting regions of the southern parts of Korea. The data used for this study are the daily precipitation and cloudiness during the recent five years (1990-1994) at 42 stations in southern parts of Korea. It is divided into four classes of fine, clear, cloudy and rainy. The results are summarized as follows: 1. The maximum value of weather entropy in study area is 2.009 vits in Yosu in July, and the minimum one is 1.624 bits in Kohung in October. The mean value of weather entropy is maximal in July, on the other hand, minimal in October during four season. The less the value of entropy is, the stabler the weather is. While the bigger the value of entropy is, the more changeable the weather is. 2. The deviation from mean value of weather entropy in southern parts of Korea, with the positive and the negative parts, shows remarkably the distributional tendency of the east (positive) and the west (negative) in January but of the south (positive) and the north (negative) in July. It also clearly shows the distributional tendency of the east (postive) and the west(negative) in the coastal region in April, and of X-type (southern west and northern east: negative) in Chiri Mt. in October. 3. In southern parts, the average information ratio maximaly appear 0.618 in Taegu area in July, whereas minimally 0.550 in Kwangju in October. Particularly the average information ratio of Pusan area is the greatest in April, but the smallest in October. And in Taegu, Kwangju, and Kunsan, it is the greatest in April, January, and July, but the smallest in Jyly, July, and pril. 4.The narrowest appreance of weather representativeness is in July when the Kwangju is the center of the weather forecasting. But the broadest one is in April when Taegu is the center of weather forecasting. 5. The defining of weather forecasting regions in terms of the difference of information ratio most broadly shows up in July in Pusan including the whole Honam area and the southern parts of Youngnam when the Pusan-Taegu is the basis of the application of information ratio. Meanwhile, it appears most broadly in January in Taegu including the whole southern parts except southern coastal area.

Geographic factors and mathmatical location of the Korean Peninsula have great influences on the variation patterns and appearances over a period of ten days of summer precipitation. In order to clarify the influence of several climate factors on precise climate classification in the middle part region of the Korea, weather entropy and the information ratio were calculated on the basis of information theory and of the data of 25 site observations. The data used for this study are the daily precipitation phenomenon over a period of ten days of summer during the recent thirteen years (1991-2003) at the 25 stations in the middle part region of the Korea. It is divided into four classes of no rain, $0.1{\sim}10.0mm/day,\;10.1{\sim}30.0mm/day$, 30.1mm over/day. Their temporal and spatial change were also analyzed. The results are as follows: the maximum and minimum value of calculated weather entropy are 1.870 bits at Chuncheon in the latter ten days of July and 0.960 bits at Ganghwa during mid September, respectively. And weather entropy in each observation sites tends to be larger in the beginning of August and smaller towards the end of September. The largest and smallest values of weather representative ness based on information ratio were observed at Chungju in the beginning of June and at Deagwallyeong towards the end of July. However, the largest values of weather representativeness came out during the middle or later part of September when 15 sites were adopted as the center of weather forecasting. The representative core region of weather forecasting and climate classification in the middle part region of the Korea are inside of the triangle region of the Buyeo, Incheon, and Gangneung.

일반적으로 미래 기후자료를 산출하기 위하여 기후 시스템을 수치화한 GCM에 의한 결과를 사용한다. 하지만 GCM의 시공간적인 해상도의 문제로 기후변화에 따른 수자원 영향 분석을 위해서는 축소기법의 적용과정이 필요하다. 이를 위하여 전세계적으로 통계학적 방법에 의한 일기발생기를 이용한 축소기법 방법이 많이 이용되고 있다. 하지만 일기발생기에 의한 방법은 월 평균값의 연간 변동성이나 계절적 변화를 재현하는데 한계가 있는 것이 사실이다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 일기 발생기의 한계가 강우의 발생 특성이 평균과 표준편차로 대표되는 통계학적 기법에 근거하고 있기 때문이라고 파악하였다. 따라서 최저온도, 최고온도, 강수량, 상대습도, 풍속, 일사량과 같이 6개의 기상자료를 선정하여 비선형 관계를 고려할 수 있는 기법을 적용하고자 하였다. 이를 위하여 SRES A1B 기후변화 시나리오에 의한 CNCM3 기후모형의 결과를 이용하였고 각 관측소 마다 다양하게 발생하는 강우 특성은 과거의 강우 특성과 유사할 것이라는 가정하에 공간적 축소기법으로 인공 신경망(ANN: Artificial Neural Network) 을 적용하고 시간적 축소기법으로 최근린(NN: Nearest Neighbor) 방법과 유전자 알고리즘(GA: Genetic Algorithm)을 적용하는 기법을 함께 제시하였다. 이러한 기법들을 실제 남한강 유역의 기상관측소 지점으로 적용하여 검증한 결과 모의된 대부분의 기상자료가 관측치를 비교적 잘 재현하였다. 본 연구에서 제시한 비선형 축소기법은 추후 기후변화 연구에 중요한 방법론으로 활용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

청각장애인을 위한 지상파방송 서비스 중 자막방송은 100%에 가까운 편성 비율을 달성하고 있지만, 수화방송은 방송화면을 가리는 특성과 비용 등의 문제로 5% 수준의 편성에 그치고 있다. 본 연구에서는 자막방송을 수화로 번역하여 그래픽 수화 방송을 생성함으로써 수화방송의 비율을 높이고자 한다. 일기예보에 한정하여 수화방송을 생성한 기존 연구 결과를 바탕으로 모든 방송 프로그램에 적용 가능한 그래픽 수화방송 시스템을 제안한다. 자막방송 문장을 형태소별로 분석한 다음 중요 품사 위주로 단어 단위로 번역하고, 한국어 어휘의미망을 이용하여 수화사전에 없는 단어를 대표어로 대체하였다. 형제어와 문맥 정보를 이용하여 중의성 단어를 성공적으로 번역하였다. 기존 일기예보 수화방송 시스템의 수화 사전과 수화 모션 데이터베이스를 추가 구축하였다. 자동번역 기술이 전문 수화 통역사의 수준을 따라잡을 수는 없지만 향후 수화방송도 선택적 서비스가 가능해지고 수화통역사의 수화방송이 모든 프로그램에 편성될 때까지 본 시스템이 보조적 시청 수단으로 사용 가능할 것이다.
