In this article, we classify the middleschool students' mathematical modeling activities with three types as following: perceptive activity, cognitive activity, and metacognitive activity. And we research model development process through the interaction of perceptive, cognitive, and metacognitive activities. We report three results of our case study as following: First, students understanded the context of the modeling tasks on the base of their own experience and constructed the tasks with perceptive activity operating tool. Second, students developed various models with reorganizing cognitive activity which think and reason about perceptive activity-based model. Third, students were able to create generalizable and reusable models through metacognitive activities. This study revealed that the possible contribution of modeling activity as following. Students are able to understand abstractive mathematical knowledge as connecting between realistic activity and abstractive activity.

GPS와 VLBI와 같은 우주측지 기술을 이용한 정밀 측위는 수 mn 정밀도의 관측소 좌표결정과 1 mm/year 정도의 고정밀 속도결정에 이용된다. 이를 위해서는 여러 가지 오차 요인들과 다양한 물리적 현상에 대한 모델링이 이루어져야 한다. 그 중의 하나가 해수 하중(ocean loading)에 의한 수직방향의 지각변위이다. 특히 한반도의 서해안은 복잡한 리아스식 해안으로 이루어져 있고, 조수간만의 차이가 크기 때문에 현존하는 모델의 정확도가 떨어진다. KVN(Korean VLBI Network)사업에서 추진하는 3기의 VLBI 중 2기가 서울과 제주도에 설치될 계획이므로, 해수하중에 의한 지각변위에 관한 연구가 선행되어야 한다. 또한 국내 GPS상시관측소의 많은 수가 서해안 지역에 설치되어 있다. 본 연구에서는 서해안 지역의 해수하중에 의한 수직방향의 지각변위를 GPS로 관측하고 이를 서해안 해수조류 모델의 정밀도를 향상시키는데 필요한 기초연구를 수행하였다. 서해안의 4개 GPS 관측소 위치에서의 해수하중에 의한 지각변위를 계산해본 결과 인천 지역에는 3 cm에 육박하는 지각변위가 수직으로 발생함을 알 수 있었다. 같은 크기와 위상의 지각변위 진폭을 GPS로 검출하기 위한 여러 가지 오차 보정과 GIPSY를 이용한 고정밀 키네마틱 GPS 자료처리에 대하여 상세히 소개한다.

There have been few geophysical studies on the crustal structure of the continent-ocean zone around the middle eastern part of Korean peninsula, because of the lack of database in both land and ocean. The area for the study on the internal crustal structure using gravity data is bounded by the latitude of 37$^{\circ}$-38"N and longitude of 128$^{\circ}$-132$^{\circ}$E. WCA correction is applied to shipborne gravity data to integrate with gravity anomalies obtained on land. The high frequency components of the shipborne gravity data which are considered as the noise on survey track are effectively removed by means of correlating with satellite gravity data. The corrected shipborne free-air gravity anomaly is integrated with the Bouguer gravity anomaly on land under the same condition. The integrated gravity anomaly is divided into four areas for power spectrum analysis. The depths of Moho discontinuity increases gradually from inland to Ulleung basin. As the result of modeling based on power spectrum analysis, Moho discontinuity depth is about 33-35 km in the continental zone of Korea and 18-28 km at the continental margin. Such structural character is well elucidated in changing gravity data around Ulleung basin. The depths of Moho discontinuity in the southern ocean of Ulleung-island is 16--17 km, which is much lower than in the land. The result of crustal structure modeling in this study is similar to that computed by prior seismic exploration around this area.

Since Augmented Reality (AR) enables users to experience computer-generated content embedded in real environments, AR agents can be visualized among physical objects in the environments where the users exist, and directly interact with them in real-time. We model perceptual attention for autonomous agents in AR environments where virtual and physical objects coexist. Since such AR agents must adaptively perceive and attend to surrounded objects relevant to their goals, our model allows the agents to determine currently visible objects from the description of what virtual and physical objects are configured in the camera's viewing area. A degree of attention is assigned to each perceived object based on its relevance to achieve agents' goals. The agents can focus on a reduced set of perceived objects with respect to the estimated degree of attention. To demonstrate the effectiveness of our approach, we implemented an animated character that was overlaid over a miniature version of campus and that attended to buildings relevant to their goals. Experiments showed that our model could reduce the character's perceptual loads even when surroundings change.

디지털 미디어 기술의 발전은 코딩 분야를 비롯하여 다양하게 발전하고 있다. 특히 오디오 신호 처리 분야에서는 디지털 오디오 신호의 생성, 압축, 복원의 단계가 다양한 형태로 개발되고 있다. 오디오 신호 처리에서 인간의 청각 기관을 모델링한 심리음향 기법은 이용하여 압축뿐만 아니라 잡음 신호의 개선에서도 효과적으로 이용되고 있다. 이러한 심리음향모델을 기반으로 하여 구성된 적응지각필터는 지각필터를 이용하여 적응적으로 잡음에 열화된 신호를 개선한다. 이때, 적응지각필터 반복 수행 계수의 효과적인 결절은 오디오 신호의 청각적 손실을 줄이는 동시에 정확한 잡음 제거를 수행한다. 성능을 확인하기 위해서 SNR 및 NMR 비교를 수행하였다.

The analysis of wide-angle seismic reflection and refraction data plays an important role in lithospheric-scale crustal structure study. However, it is extremely difficult to develop an appropriate velocity structure model directly from the observed data, and we have to improve the structure model step by step, because the crustal structure analysis is an intrinsically non-linear problem. There are several subjective processes in wide-angle crustal structure modelling, such as phase identification and trial-and-error forward modelling. Because these subjective processes in wide-angle data analysis reduce the uniqueness and credibility of the resultant models, it is important to reduce subjectivity in the analysis procedure. From this point of view, we describe two software tools, PASTEUP and MODELING, to be used for developing crustal structure models. PASTEUP is an interactive application that facilitates the plotting of record sections, analysis of wide-angle seismic data, and picking of phases. PASTEUP is equipped with various filters and analysis functions to enhance signal-to-noise ratio and to help phase identification. MODELING is an interactive application for editing velocity models, and ray-tracing. Synthetic traveltimes computed by the MODELING application can be directly compared with the observed waveforms in the PASTEUP application. This reduces subjectivity in crustal structure modelling because traveltime picking, which is one of the most subjective process in the crustal structure analysis, is not required. MODELING can convert an editable layered structure model into two-way traveltimes which can be compared with time-sections of Multi Channel Seismic (MCS) reflection data. Direct comparison between the structure model of wide-angle data with the reflection data will give the model more credibility. In addition, both PASTEUP and MODELING are efficient tools for handling a large dataset. These software tools help us develop more plausible lithospheric-scale structure models using wide-angle seismic data.

We investigated the undulation of Moho depth and the crustal structure of the continental margin in the East Sea along the Korea Peninsula from inversion and modelling using potential data and previous seismic results. Free-air gravity anomalies generally reflect topography effect. Bouguer gravity anomalies increase toward the Ulleung Basin, indicating that Moho depth is shallower under the Ulleung Basin. Positive magnetic anomalies exist along the continental margin and decrease toward the Ulleung Basin. In analytic signal, the small anomaly in the Hupo Bank infers that the Hupo Bank is uplifted by igneous intrusion and the strong anomaly on the continental slope denotes existence of SDR(seaward dipping reflectors), which are in accordance with the location of SDR detected in previous seismic studies. The inversion result of Bouguer gravity anomaly and the 2-dimensional gravity modelling indicate that the undulation of Moho depth shallows from the continental shelf toward the Ulleung Basin. This is in good agreement with the Moho depth calculated by the previous seismic velocity model using ocean bottom seismometer(OBS). The 2-dimensional gravity modelling infers magmatic underplating zone under the lower continental crust on the continental margin of the East Sea, indicating the possible rifiting of the continental margin.

In this preliminary study, dehydration of the subducting slab and behavior of the expelled water are numerically modeled using 2-dimensional model scheme. The hydrated minerals in the oceanic crust of the subducting slab experience dehydration by increases in temperature and pressure and expel their water into the overlying mantle wedge. Behavior of the expelled water is governed by both the corner flow in the mantle wedge and porous flow of the expelled water through the pores of the mantle minerals. The effects of convergence rate and age of the subducting slab as well as grain size of the minerals on the dehydration of the subducting slab and behavior of the expelled water are evaluated. The water solubility of the oceanic crust measured from the laboratory experiments is considered for modeling dehydration of the oceanic crust. The model calculations show most of the hydrated minerals in the oceanic crust is dehydrated by a depth of 100 km and the effects of the convergence rate and age of the subducting slab on the dehydration of the subducting slab and behavior of the expelled water are not significant. The larger grain size allows faster porous flow of the expelled water through the oceanic crust, mantle wedge and overlying continental crust and reduces the volume fraction of the expelled water there. The developed technique will be used for future studies on arc volcanism and has a potential implication for the other fields such as seismic tomographic study.

This article presents a case study in which three middle school students developed models in modeling activity using a tool. We research the interaction of model development process and the activities operating a tool in the modeling. And we investigate whether students are able to create generalizable model, after a tool mediates students' thought process and students internalize the perceptive activity operating a tool. The analysis of our case study led to three results. First, as students were able to integrate perceptive activity operating a tool and cognitive activity, they reasoned about the relationships among changing quantities and developed the model. Second, students corrected and refined developed models with reflecting the perceptive activity operating a tool. Third, as students internalized perceptive activity, students were able to create generalizable model, which is a graph of height as a function of the amount of water that's in the beaker.
