This paper presents an image retrieval algorithm based on feature vector using color of histogram refinement for a faster and more efficient search in the process of content based image retrieval. First, we segment each of R, G, and B images from RGB color image and extract their respective histograms. Secondly, these histograms of individual R, G and B are divided into sixteen of bins each. Finally, we extract the maximum pixel values in each bins' histogram, which are calculated, compared and analyzed, Now, we can perform image retrieval technique using these maximum pixel value. Hence, the proposed algorithm of this paper effectively extracts features by comparing input and database images, making features from R, G and B into a feature vector table, and prove a batter searching performance than the current algorithm that uses histogram matching and ranks, only.

This study aims to investigate the research trends of disaster in Korea through a bibliometric analysis. To do that, it analyzed 772 scholarly articles published from 2002 to 2016, retrieved from KCI (Korean Citation Index) database. For analysis, discipline profiling analysis, journal profiling analysis, and co-word analysis methods were used. The study found that the number of scholarly articles on disaster has increased, especially after Sewol ferry disaster occurred in 2004. The major discipline areas were identified as 'policy sciences/public administration' area, 'engineering' area, 'GIS/telecommunication' area, and 'medical/humanities/social sciences' area. In terms of time series, the proportion of scholarly articles published in 'policy sciences/public administration' area has decreased since 2014 and at the same time, discipline areas have been diversified including law, medical, and journalism.

In the post-genomic era, researches on proteins as well as genes have been increasingly required. Particularly, work on protein-protein interaction and protein network construction have been recently establishing. Most biologists publish their research results through papers or other media. However, biologists do not use the information effectively, since the published research results are very large. As the growth of internet, it becomes easy to access very large research results. It is significantly important to extract information with a biological meaning from varisous media. Therefore, in this research, we efficiently extract protein-protein interaction information from many open papers or other media and construct the database of the extracted information. We build a protein network from the established database and then design and implement various pathway analysis algorithms which find biological meaning from the protein network.

Vast amount of XML documents raise interests in how they will be used and how far their usage can be expanded. This paper has two central goals: 1) easy and fast retrieval of XML documents or relevant elements; and 2) efficient and stable management of large-size XML documents. The keys to develop such a practical system are how to segment a large XML document to smaller fragments and how to store them. In order to achieve these goals, we designed SCOF(Service-centric Object Fragmentation) model, which is a semi-decomposition method based on conversion rules provided by XML database managers. Keyword-based search using SCOF model then retrieves the specific elements or attributes of XML documents, just as typical XML query language does. Even though this approach needs the wisdom of managers in XML document collection, SCOF model makes it efficient both retrieval and management of massive XML documents.

The function of a protein is closely co-related with its subcellular location(s). Given a protein sequence, therefore, how to determine its subcellular location is a vitally important problem. We have developed a new prediction method for protein subcellular location(s), which is based on n-gram feature extraction and k-nearest neighbor (kNN) classification algorithm. It classifies a protein sequence to one or more subcellular compartments based on the locations of top k sequences which show the highest similarity weights against the input sequence. The similarity weight is a kind of similarity measure which is determined by comparing n-gram features between two sequences. Currently our method extract penta-grams as features of protein sequences, computes scores of the potential localization site(s) using kNN algorithm, and finally presents the locations and their associated scores. We constructed a large-scale data set of protein sequences with known subcellular locations from the SWISS-PROT database. This data set contains 51,885 entries with one or more known subcellular locations. Our method show very high prediction precision of about 93% for this data set, and compared with other method, it also showed comparable prediction improvement for a test collection used in a previous work.

In a general tendency that DBMS is used as a tool for storing large size of triple knowledge, it still remains in issue that which DBMS schema should be designed for storing, managing, inferring, and querying the triple knowledge efficiently. In this paper, we present, in the view point of efficient query process, a method that processes a query using Expanded Class-Property Views (ECPV) and, as a result, improvement in response time. The response time of DBMS-based inference systems is proportioned to table size and the number of table join operations. The more query is complex, the more join operations it requires, and the longer response time it requires. ECPV is a table obtained by processing possible join operations before queries. To use ECPV in the query process, SPARQL queries should be converted into corresponding ECPV-based SQL queries. This paper describes the conversion process and shows the improvement in response time by experiments.

Recently there are many people who suffer from a mental problem like depression or anxiety caused by the stress of employment or school works. Some mental care agencies serve a campaign for them, but it's less accessible due to the geographic distance. And before taking the service, people should find out what is a better psychological test for them to diagnose the problem. Furthermore, it is inconvenient that keeping the diagnosis which is written in some papers. In his paper, in order to solve these problems, suggests the novel platform that serves psychological tests to users and stores results into database so that involved agencies could contact quickly. The psychological tests BAI, BDI, PHQ-15, and Q-15 were used to verify the reliability and effectiveness of the platform.

인간과 컴퓨터간의 전통적인 인터페이스는 인간이 요구하는 다양한 인터페이스를 제공하지 못한다는 점에서 점차 사용하기 불편하게 되었고 이는 새로운 형태의 인터페이스에 대한 요구로 이어지게 되었다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 추세에 맞추어 카메라를 통해 인간의 손 제스처를 인식하는 새로운 인터페이스를 연구하였다. 손은 자유도가 높고 3차원의 view direction에 의해 형상이 매우 심하게 변한다. 따라서 윤곽선 기반방법과 같은 2차원으로 투영된 영상에서 contour나 edge의 정보로 손 제스처를 인식하는 데는 한계가 있다. 그러나 모델기반 방법은 3차원 정보를 이용하기 때문에 손 제스처를 인식하는데 좋으나 계산량이 많아 실시간으로 처리하기가 쉽지 않다. 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위해 손 형상에 대한 대규모 데이터베이스를 구성하고 정규화된 공간에서 Feature 간의 연관성을 파악하여 훈련 데이터 모델을 구성하여 비교함으로써 실시간으로 손 포즈를 구별할 수 있다. 이러한 통계적 학습 기반의 알고리즘은 다양한 데이터와 좋은 feature의 검출이 최적의 성능을 구현하는 것과 연관된다. 따라서 배경으로부터 노이즈를 최대한 줄이기 위해 피부의 색상 정보를 이용하여 손 후보 영역을 검출하고 검출된 후보 영역으로부터 HLF(Haar-like Feature)를 이용하여 손 영역을 검출한다. 검출된 손 영역으로부터 패턴 분류 과정을 거쳐 손 포즈를 인식 하게 된다. 패턴 분류 과정은 HLF를 이용하여 손 포즈를 인식하게 되는데 미리 학습된 각 포즈에 대한 HLF를 이용하여 손 포즈를 인식하게 된다. HLF는 Violar가 얼굴 검출에 적용한 것으로 얼굴 검출에 좋은 결과를 보여 주었으며, 이는 적분 이미지로부터 추출한 HLF를 이용한 Adaboost 학습 알고리즘을 사용하였다. 본 논문에서는 피부색의 색상 정보를 이용 배경과 손 영상을 최대한 분리하여 배경의 대부분이 Adaboost-Haar Classifier의 첫 번째 스테이지에서 제거되는 방법을 이용하여 그 성능을 더 향상 시켜 손 형상 인식에 적용하였다.

도심지 터널의 설계, 시공 그리고 유지관리에 있어서 지반 변위 억제와 변형거동 예측은 중요하다. 국내 외 연구자들은 다양한 수치해석적인 기법과 현장 계측 결과를 이용하여 터널 시공과 관련된 변형거동 예측을 시도하였다. 하지만, 설계물성치의 산정과 지반 모델링 그리고 수치해석기법과 관련된 사용상의 어려움에 의해 아직까지 만족스러운 결과를 얻지는 못하였다. 본 논문은 수치해석적인 기법과 인공신경망을 이용하여 도심지 NATM 터널의 설계 물성치 산정과 변형거동 예측에 관한 방법을 제안하였다. 인공신경망 모델 개발을 위한 학습과 테스트과정은 데이터베이스된 수치해석결과를 이용하였다. 개발된 인공신경망 모델은 입력변수인 지반변위와 결과변수인 설계 물성치 간의 상호관계를 적절히 인식할 수 있다. 수치해석은 지반의 연화거동을 모사할 수 있는 변형률 연화모델을 적용하였다. 사례분석에 있어서 굴착 초기단계의 계측 값을 개발된 인공신경망 모델에 입력하여 설계 물성치를 계산하였으며, 수정된 설계 물성치는 수치해석을 통하여 다음 굴착단계에서의 터널 주변의 지반 변형거동을 예측하였다. 본 논문에서 제안된 방법을 토대로 시공조건이 엄밀한 도심지 터널의 설계물성치의 정량적인 평가 및 변형거동 예측이 계측이 입수된 초기 굴착단계에서 가능할 것으로 기대된다.
