With the advent of generative artificial intelligence technology, it became possible to create a virtual human, and produce a lecture video only with textual information. It is expected that the virtual human will enhance the efficient production of educational contents and the student's entertainment experience and satisfaction. However, there have been still few studies that have demonstrated the process of how virtual human technology reaches students' satisfaction. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to empirically examine whether the human likeness, which is the main characteristic of a virtual human based on Uncanny Valley theory, affects human experience and satisfaction. In particular, human likeness of the Uncanny Valley theory was subdivided into human likeness in the visual and verbal dimensions, and the process of reaching satisfaction was understood based on the experience economy model. In particular, human similarity in Uncanny Valley theory was classified as similarity in the visual and language levels, and the process of reaching satisfaction based on the experiential economic model was analyzed with a partial least squares structure model equation (PLS-SEM). The survey was conducted online for a panel of office workers at a specialized research institution in China. The results indicate that both the visual and verbal human likeness had a positive effect on experience economy factors (education, entertainment, esthetic, escape), and then these experiential factors had a significant effect on satisfaction. The results also provide some suggestions to consider when designing educational contents by virtual human.

In this paper, we investigate a Hausdorff distance, which is used for the measurement of image similarity, to see whether it is also effective for document retrieval. The proposed method uses a local crowdedness and a Hausdorff distance to locate text images by determining whether a pair of images scanned at different time comes from the same text or not. To reduce the processing time, which is one of the disadvantages of a Hausdorff distance algorithm, we adopt a local crowdedness for feature point extraction. We apply the proposed method to 190 pairs of the same class and 190 pairs of the different class collected from postal envelop images. The results show that the modified Hausdorff distance proposed in this paper performed well in locating the tort region and calculating the degree of similarity between two images. An improvement of accuracy by 2.7% and 9.0% has been obtained, compared to a binary correlation method and the original Hausdorff distance method, respectively.

There are various image retrieval methods using shape, color and texture features. One of the most active area is using shape and color information. A number of shape representations have been suggested to recognize shapes even under affine transformation. There are many kinds of method for shape recognition, the well-known method is Fourier descriptors and moment invariant. The other method is CSS(Curvature Scale Space). The maxima of curvature scale space image have already been used to represent 2-D shapes in different applications. Because preexistence CSS exists several problems, in this paper we use improved CSS method for retrieval image. There are two kinds of method, One is using RGB color information feature and the other is using HSI color information feature. In this paper we used HSI color model to represent color histogram before, then use it as comparison measure. The similarity is measured by using Euclidean distance and for reduce search time and accuracy, We use DTW for measure similarity. Compare with the result of using Euclidean distance, we can find efficiency elevated.

In times past, simple numeric password was the commonly used method in security system. For complement this method, the security system using biometric information is appeared. But it usually uses the scheme to utilize portion of biometric information, and has limited application fields. This biometric security system has low reliability because of some problems such as steal, robbery, and so on. Furthermore, it is associated secondary crime as leaking personal information. For this reason new security system using the unique individual biometric is required. In this paper, we propose the security scheme which used face image and iris analysis. While face image processing for specific person identification, it calculate some feature points of face image and iris's features in our proposed scheme. After person identification applying RFID tags in doorway, several feature information is extracted from camera image, and these compare with registered information of our system for final identification.

Detection and classification of underwater objects in sonar imagery are challenging problems. This paper proposes a system that detects and identifies underwater objects at the sea floor level using a sonar image and image processing techniques. The identification process of underwater objects consists of two steps; detection of candidate regions and identification of underwater objects. The candidate regions of underwater objects are extracted by image registration through the detection of common feature points between the reference background image and the current scanning image. And then, underwater objects are identified as the closest pattern within the database using eigenvectors and eigenvalues as features. The proposed system is expected to be used in efficient securement of Q route in vessel navigation.

A single specimen (700 mm in disc length) of Plesiobatis daviesi, belonging to the family Plesiobatididae, was firstly collected in the north-eastern coastal waters of Jejudo Island, Korea by using a bottom trawl on 24 October 2010. This species was characterized by having five pairs of gill openings, tail with one to three large spines, long snout length, long caudal fin, and pleated margin of nasal curtain. It is morphologically similar to Urolophus aurantiacus, but the former is distinguished from the latter by having longer caudal fin and snout length. We add P. daviesi to the Korean fish fauna and suggest the new Korean names, "Gin-kko-ri-huin-ga-o-ri-gwa", "Gin-kko-ri-huin-ga-o-ri-sok" and "Gin-kko-ri-huin-ga-o-ri" for the family, genus and species, respectively.

In this paper, the concept of the diversified cultural tourism industry in Korea and China was summarized and the research direction was suggested. Also, the characteristics and status of the cultural tourism industry were analyzed. As a characteristic of the cultural tourism industry in both Korea and China, it exhibited similar cultural tourism forms such as performances, theme parks, festivals, and museums. Korea had a unique cultural tourism form called Hallyu cultural tourism, and China is also a rare cultural arts complex in Korea. And has developed cultural tourism. The strength of the Korean culture and tourism industry is that it is rich in cultural resources and possesses many assets with cultural contents, and the strength of the Chinese culture and tourism industry is that it has abundant tourism resources and huge economic power. As such, Korea and China with many similarities were found to be a country with high interest and potential in the cultural tourism industry, which is growing into a high value-added industry in the future. In addition, in order to continuously and stably develop the cultural tourism industry, continuous efforts and interests and proper research must be conducted so that the two countries can coexist with each other.

정상 성인의 경우, 감성 개념의 내적 차원 구조는 쾌/불쾌 차원과 각성 차원이라는 2차원 구조에 원형의 체계적인 분포를 보이는 것으로 알려져 왔다. 본 연구에서는 이와 같은 2차원 구조가 얼마나 보편적이고 일관된 양상으로 나타나고 있는지를 살펴보고자 하였다 이를 위해 연구1에서는 아동 및 청소년에게 15개의 정서 관련 어휘로 이루어진 10i개의 단어 쌍에 대한 7점 척도의 유사성 평정을 시행하였으며, 연구 2에서는 정신분열증 환자에게 통일한 절차를 시행하였다 다차원 분석 결과, 1차원(초등5년:74%, 중등2 년:72%, 정신분열증 환자: 60%)과 2차원(초등5년: 18%, 중등2년16%, 정신분열증 환자: 11%)이 도출되었다 정상 성인의 경우와 마찬가지로 1차원은 쾌/불쾌 차원, 2차원은 각성 차원으로 해석될 수 있었다. 따라서, 감성 개념의 구조에 있어서 쾌/불쾌 및 각성은 인지적 성숙의 단계나 인지, 정서적 손상에 관계 없이 매우 일관되게 나타나는 비교적 안정적인 차원 구조인 것으로 생각된다. 다만, 발달 단계나 병리적 속성에 따라 각 차원의 비중치는 다소 차이를 보이는데, 아동 및 청소년의 경우, 주로 쾌/불쾌 차원을 통해 감성을 개념화 하는 특징을 보이며, 정신분열증 환자 집단의 경우, 1,2차원 모두 상대적으로 설명량이 낮은 것으로 나타나는데, 의 경우, 비중치가 더욱 낮은 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 결과를 통해 내적 차원 구조의 타당성 및 제한점에 관해 논의하였다.
