The establishment of a production pipeline imported 30 computer graphics is suggested in this paper to improve the efficiency of existing production pipeline of clay animation. The point is that the process of building clay characters that remains labor intensive among the existing procedures is replaced by the process of creating computer generated characters. In order to create characters out of clay by means of 30 computer graphics, a diffuse map and displacement map are made of an oil-based clay according to the UVW coordination of polygon modeling, which is the same color and kind of clay used to make a clay character. In addition, a panoramic HDRI recording system is developed to record the lighting information of shooting environment for miniature sets, which is imported in 3D computer graphic tools as digital light source. On account of the new production pipeline, a hyper realistic rendering image can be produced, and at the same time it improves the traditional pipeline of stop motion animation that is know-how based procedure of a complete artist by the engineering approach to the automatic process.

Knowledge map is widely used to represent knowledge in many domains. This paper presents a method of integrating the national R&D data and assists of users to navigate the integrated data via using a knowledge map service. The knowledge map service is built by using a lightweight ontology and a topic modeling method. The national R&D data is integrated with the research project as its center, i.e., the other R&D data such as research papers, patents, and reports are connected with the research project as its outputs. The lightweight ontology is used to represent the simple relationships between the integrated data such as project-outputs relationships, document-author relationships, and document-topic relationships. Knowledge map enables us to infer further relationships such as co-author and co-topic relationships. To extract the relationships between the integrated data, a Relational Data-to-Triples transformer is implemented. Also, a topic modeling approach is introduced to extract the document-topic relationships. A triple store is used to manage and process the ontology data while preserving the network characteristics of knowledge map service. Knowledge map can be divided into two types: one is a knowledge map used in the area of knowledge management to store, manage and process the organizations' data as knowledge, the other is a knowledge map for analyzing and representing knowledge extracted from the science & technology documents. This research focuses on the latter one. In this research, a knowledge map service is introduced for integrating the national R&D data obtained from National Digital Science Library (NDSL) and National Science & Technology Information Service (NTIS), which are two major repository and service of national R&D data servicing in Korea. A lightweight ontology is used to design and build a knowledge map. Using the lightweight ontology enables us to represent and process knowledge as a simple network and it fits in with the knowledge navigation and visualization characteristics of the knowledge map. The lightweight ontology is used to represent the entities and their relationships in the knowledge maps, and an ontology repository is created to store and process the ontology. In the ontologies, researchers are implicitly connected by the national R&D data as the author relationships and the performer relationships. A knowledge map for displaying researchers' network is created, and the researchers' network is created by the co-authoring relationships of the national R&D documents and the co-participation relationships of the national R&D projects. To sum up, a knowledge map-service system based on topic modeling and ontology is introduced for processing knowledge about the national R&D data such as research projects, papers, patent, project reports, and Global Trends Briefing (GTB) data. The system has goals 1) to integrate the national R&D data obtained from NDSL and NTIS, 2) to provide a semantic & topic based information search on the integrated data, and 3) to provide a knowledge map services based on the semantic analysis and knowledge processing. The S&T information such as research papers, research reports, patents and GTB are daily updated from NDSL, and the R&D projects information including their participants and output information are updated from the NTIS. The S&T information and the national R&D information are obtained and integrated to the integrated database. Knowledge base is constructed by transforming the relational data into triples referencing R&D ontology. In addition, a topic modeling method is employed to extract the relationships between the S&T documents and topic keyword/s representing the documents. The topic modeling approach enables us to extract the relationships and topic keyword/s based on the semantics, not based on the simple keyword/s. Lastly, we show an experiment on the construction of the integrated knowledge base using the lightweight ontology and topic modeling, and the knowledge map services created based on the knowledge base are also introduced.

The self-driving roller conveyor system, which transports target products by controlling multiple rollers with a motor, is a logistics system suitable for branching and joining logistics and controlling the alignment of target products, and its utilization is increasing, especially in the food manufacturing process. In this paper, we build a simulation environment using Unity software based on 3D graphic modeling of a self-driving roller conveyor system. In a situation where target products are supplied irregularly in terms of time, a method is proposed that can align products to maintain constant spacing by controlling the rollers. Simulation results show that effective alignment of products is possible by controlling the motor that drives the roller based on sensor data of the product position.

This paper presents a parallel object-oriented programming (OOP) platform for efficient visualization of three-dimensional content in CUDA environments. For this purpose, this paper discusses the features and limitations in implementing C++ object-oriented codes using CUDA and proposes the solutions. Also, it presents how to implement a 3D parallel visualization platform based on the MVC (Model/View/Controller) design pattern. Also, it provides sample implementations for integral MLS (iMLS) and signed distance fields (SDFs) based on the Marching Cubes and Raytracing. The proposed approach enables GPU parallel processing only by implementing simple interfaces. Based on this, developers can expect general benefits that are common in general OOP techniques including abstractization and inheritance. Though I implemented only two specific samples in this paper, I expect my approach can be widely applied to general computer graphics problems.

An object-oriented system is organized by a set of interacting objects and the system behavior is represented by the cooperating interaction bet ween objects. The characteristics of object-oriented software. such as inheritance and polymorphism, increase the difficulty of the object-oriented software testing. At running time of a program, one call from a member function can bind to other member functions because of the dynamic characteristics such as concurrence, dynamic binding and interaction. Therefore, there need the research about considering the characteristics of object-oriented software and concurrently testing the interaction between objects. In this paper, we propose the techniques as follows. First, we construct a flattened state chart diagram by considering the inheritance and polymorphism. Next, we model the system with CPN(Colored Petri Net) that usually is applying the system modeling and simulation. Last, we propose a test case generation techniques for testing the interaction between objects in object-oriented software by applying a Design/CPN tool.

많은 건설 현장에서 카메라와 CCTV(Closed-circuit Television)와 같은 장비를 활용하여 건설 현장의 상황을 모니터링 하고 있다. 하지만 많은 작업이 실외에서 이루어지는 토목 건축공사의 특성상 적절한 수준의 영상 데이터를 축적하는 것은 쉽지 않은 일이다. 특히, 이미지 프로세싱기법을 사용 하여 자동화된 건설 관리의 수행 시, 영상 데이터의 품질에 따라 에러가 발생하여 건설 관리자가 잘못된 정보를 얻게 될 경우도 발생하게 된다. 본 연구에서는 케니엣지(Canny Edge) 인식기법과 워터쉐드(Watershed) 변환, 그리고 3D CAD Mask를 이용한 건축 구조물 기둥의 시공 상황 분석 기법에 근거하여, 영상 데이터 분석 시 오류를 최소화하기 위한 에러 제거 알고리즘을 제시한다. 실제 데이터와 비교를 통하여 그 활용 가능성 또한 검증한다.

현대 영상산업에서 컴퓨터 그래픽스가 차지하는 비중은 크게 늘어나고 있다. 컴퓨터 그래픽스 기술의 발달로 인한 디지털 영화나 애니메이션이 점차 증가함에 따라 이러한 장면이 등장하는 가상캐릭터를 쉽게 접할 수 있다. 이런 가상 캐릭터를 이용하여 가상 해저 환경을 생성하기 위해서는 3D 모델링 및 애니메이션 기술을 개발해야 한다. 국내에서는 가상 해저 환경을 구축하여 실감 체험을 할 수 있는 VR 콘텐츠 기술 개발에 관련하여 군중 장면 처리 및 군중 행동 시스템의 설계 및 구현 등의 연구가 있었으나 군중 행동 모델러 기술 개발을 실용화 할 단계까지는 미치지 못하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 가상 해저환경에 존재하는 다수의 캐릭터의 움직임을 수작업으로 제공하는 것이 시간과 비용이 많이 소요되기 때문에 이를 자동화하여 보다 사실적이고 효율적인 가상 해저환경 속에서 군중 행동 장면을 생성하기 위해서 Fish 군중 행동 모델러 기술을 개발한다.

A software interface called CGI-K including device driver routines and graphics primitives for the grphic board "K" was designed, implemented in the Design Automation Laboratory of KAIST and installed on IBM PC/AT, using assembly and C language supported by TMS 34010 grphics processor. Several algorithms generating the graphics primitives such as box, circle, pie chord are proposed. The drawing speed of CGI-K on the graphic board K was found out to be three to ten times faster than that of the EGA for several examples. A 2-D graphics editor called GRIM (graphics input and modification) and a 3-dimensional graphics renderer called IPCHE which can draw 3-D objects were developed as two major application programs running on CGI-K. The graphics primitives supported in GRIM include polygon, box, circle, and ace. The IPCHE receives a 3-D objects data file and displays the 3-D object on the screen with hidden surface removal, shading, and perspective scaling.
