This study investigated the effects of the urban forest and street trees on flow and temperature distribution in the Daegu National Debt Redemption Movement Memorial Park. For this, we implemented tree-drag and tree-cooling parameterization schemes in a computational fluid dynamics (CFD) model and validated the simulated wind speeds, wind directions, and air temperatures against the measured ones. We used the wind speeds, wind directions, air temperatures predicted by the local data assimilation and prediction system (LDAPS) as the inflow boundary conditions. To investigate the flow and thermal characteristics in the presence of trees in the target area, we conducted numerical experiments in the absence and presence of trees. In the absence of trees, strong winds and monotonous flows were formed inside the park, because there were no obstacles inducing friction. The temperature was inversely proportional to the wind speed. In the presence of trees, the wind speeds(temperatures) were reduced by more than 40 (5)% inside the park with a high planting density due to the tree drag (cooling) effect, and those also affected the wind speeds and temperatures outside the park. Even near the roadside, the wind speeds and temperatures were generally reduced by the trees, but the wind speeds and air temperatures increased partly due to the change in the flow pattern caused by tree drag.

In this study, we analyzed the effects of trees planted in urban areas on PM_2.5 reduction using a computational fluid dynamics (CFD) model. For realistic numerical simulations, the meteorological components(e.g., wind velocity components and air temperatures) predicted by the local data assimilation and prediction system (LDAPS), an operational model of the Korea Meteorological Administration, were used as the initial and boundary conditions of the CFD model. The CFD model was validated against, the PM_2.5 concentrations measured by the sensor networks. To investigate the effects of trees on the PM_2.5 reduction, we conducted the numerical simulations for three configurations of the buildings and trees: i) no tree (NT), ii) trees with only drag effect (TD), and iii) trees with the drag and dry-deposition effects (DD). The results showed that the trees in the target area significantly reduced the PM_2.5 concentrations via the dry-deposition process. The PM_2.5 concentration averaged over the domain in DD was reduced by 5.7 ㎍ m^-3 compared to that in TD.

In this paper, we propose SAAnnot-C3Pap, a semi-automatic annotation method for obtaining ground truth of a player's posture. In order to obtain ground truth about the two-dimensional joint position in the existing music domain, openpose, a two-dimensional posture estimation method, was used or manually labeled. However, automatic annotation methods such as the existing openpose have the disadvantages of showing inaccurate results even though they are fast. Therefore, this paper proposes SAAnnot-C3Pap, a semi-automated annotation method that is a compromise between the two. The proposed approach consists of three main steps: extracting postures using openpose, correcting the parts with errors among the extracted parts using supervisely, and then analyzing the results of openpose and supervisely. Perform the synchronization process. Through the proposed method, it was possible to correct the incorrect 2D joint position detection result that occurred in the openpose, solve the problem of detecting two or more people, and obtain the ground truth in the playing posture. In the experiment, we compare and analyze the results of the semi-automated annotation method openpose and the SAAnnot-C3Pap proposed in this paper. As a result of comparison, the proposed method showed improvement of posture information incorrectly collected through openpose.

Chickens are a species of vertebrate with varying colors. Various colors of chickens must be classified to find color-related genes. In the past, color scoring was performed based on human visual observation. Therefore, chicken colors have not been measured with precise standards. In order to solve this problem, a computer vision approach was used in this study. Image quantization based on k-means clustering for all pixels of RGB values can objectively distinguish inherited colors that are expressed in various ways. This study was also conducted to determine whether plumage color differences exist in the reciprocal cross lines between two breeds: black Yeonsan Ogye (YO) and White Leghorn (WL). Line B is a crossbred line between YO males and WL females while Line L is a reciprocal crossbred line between WL males and YO females. One male and ten females were selected for each F₁ line, and full-sib mating was conducted to generate 883 F₂ birds. The results indicate that the distribution of light and dark colors of k-means clustering converged to 7:3. Additionally, the color of Line B was lighter than that of Line L (P<0.01). This study suggests that the genes underlying plumage colors can be identified using quantification values from the computer vision approach described in this study.

To understand an underlying geological structure via seismic imaging, the velocity information of the subsurface medium is crucial. Although the full-waveform inversion (FWI) method is considered useful for estimating subsurface velocity models, 3D FWI needs a lot-of computing power and time. Herein, we compare the calculation efficiency and accuracy of frequency-domain 2D and 3D acoustic FWIs. Thereafter, we demonstrate that the artifacts from 2D approximation can be partially suppressed via frequency-domain 2D FWI by employing diffraction angle filtering (DAF). By applying DAF, which employs only big reflection angle components, the impact of noise and out-of-plane reflections can be reduced. Additionally, it is anticipated that the DAF can create long-wavelength velocity structures for 3D FWI and migration.

Recently, With the recent rapid development of technology, the amount of data generated by various systems is increasing, and enterprise servers and data centers that have to handle large amounts of big data need to apply high-stability and high-performance storage devices even if costs increase. In such systems, SSD(solid state disk) that provide high performance of read/write are often used as storage devices. However, due to the characteristics of reading and writing on a page-by-page basis, erasing operations on a block basis, and erassing-before-writing, there is a problem that performance is degraded when duplicate writes occur. Therefore, in order to delay this performance degradation problem, over-provision technology of SSD has been applied internally. However, since over-provided technologies have the disadvantage of consuming a lot of storage space instead of performance, the application of inefficient technologies above the right performance has a problem of over-costing. In this paper, we proposed a method of measuring the performance and cost incurred when various over-provisions are applied in an SSD and predicting the system-optimized over-provided ratio based on this. Through this research, we expect to find a trade-off with costs to meet the performance requirements in systems that process big data.

Although domestic public libraries achieved quantitative growth based on the 1st and 2nd comprehensive library development plans, there were some qualitative shortcomings, and various studies have been conducted to improve them. Most of the preceding studies have limitations in that they are limited to social and economic factors and statistical analysis. Therefore, in this study, by applying the spatiotemporal concept to quantitatively calculate the decrease in public library loan demand due to rainfall and heatwave, by clustering areas with high demand for book loan due to weather changes and areas where it is not, factors inside and outside public libraries and After the combination, changes in public library loan demand according to weather changes were analyzed. As a result of the analysis, there was a difference in the decrease due to the weather for each public library, and it was found that there were some differences depending on the characteristics and spatial location of the public library. Also, when the temperature was over 35℃, the decrease in book loan demand increased significantly. As internal factors, the number of seats, the number of books, and area were derived. As external factors, the public library access ramp, cafe, reading room, floating population in their teens, and floating population of women in their 30s/40s were analyzed as important variables. The results of this analysis are judged to contribute to the establishment of policies to promote the use of public libraries in consideration of the weather in a specific season, and also suggested limitations of the study.

Human equivalent phantoms manufactured using 3D printers are cheaper and can be manufactured in a short time than conventional human phantoms. However, many phantoms are manufactured with less than 100 % of Infill Density, one of the 3D printer output setting variables. Therefore, this study compared the Bone Phantom CT number, which differs from the ratio of five Infill Density produced using a 3D printer, to the CT number of the actual human body Bone. In addition, the usefulness of the manufactured phantom was evaluated by producing a 100 % elbow joint phantom with Infill Density and setting the Infill Density to 100 % through CT number comparison for each tissue on computed tomography (CT). As a result, the Bone Phantom printed with 100 % Infill Density did not show the most statistically significant difference from the CT number value of the actual human Bone, and the CT number of each tissue did not show a statistically significant difference from the CT number value of each tissue of the actual human elbow joint.
