Strawberry is a stand-out cultivating fruit in Korea. The optimum production of strawberry is highly dependent on growing environment. Smart farm technology, and automatic monitoring and control system maintain a favorable environment for strawberry growth in greenhouses, as well as play an important role to improve production. Moreover, physiological parameters of strawberry plant and it is surrounding environment may allow to give an idea on production of strawberry. Therefore, this study intends to build a machine learning model to predict strawberry's yield, cultivated in greenhouse. The environmental parameter like as temperature, humidity and CO₂ and physiological parameters such as length of leaves, number of flowers and fruits and chlorophyll content of 'Seolhyang' (widely growing strawberry cultivar in Korea) were collected from three strawberry greenhouses located in Sacheon of Gyeongsangnam-do during the period of 2019-2020. A predictive model, Lasso regression was designed and validated through 5-fold cross-validation. The current study found that performance of the Lasso regression model is good to predict the number of flowers and fruits, when the MAPE value are 0.511 and 0.488, respectively during the model validation. Overall, the present study demonstrates that using AI based regression model may be convenient for farms and agricultural companies to predict yield of crops with fewer input attributes.

Information delivery among young generation has a distinct tendency to prefer visual to text as means of information distribution and sharing recently, and it is natural to distribute information through Youtube or one-man broadcasting on Internet. That is, young generation usually get their information through this kind of distribution procedure. Many young generation are also drastic and more aggressive for decorating themselves very uniquely. It tends to create personal characteristics freely through drastic expression and attempt of face makeup, hair styling and fashion coordination without distinction of sex. Especially, face makeup becomes an object of major concern among males nowadays, and female of course, then it is the major means to express their personality. In this study, to meet the demands of the times, we design and implement the intellectual smart mirror application that efficiently retrieves and recommends the related videos among Youtube or one-man broadcastings produced by famous professional makeup artists to implement the face makeup congruous with our face shape, hair color & style, skin tone, fashion color & style in order to create the face makeup that represent our characteristics. We also introduce the AI technique to provide optimal solution based on the learning of user's search patterns and facial features, and finally provide the detailed makeup face images to give the chance to get the makeup skill stage by stage.

A spontaneous revertant of mutation rbsB103 that is ribose taxis-positive was characterized. This revertant was found to be export-competent in the export of ribose-binding protein shown by the disappearance of accumulated mutant precursor protein and the export of mature ribose-binding protein to the periplasm. The reversional change was shown to be in the region of risB gene that codes for the amino terminal portion of ribose-binding protein. Analysis by high-performance liquid chromatography of peptide patterns of ribose-binding proteins confirmed the relationship between the wild-type and the revertant proteins as shown for the mutant previously (Iida et al., 1985). When the processing rate of presursor proteins from the wild type and the revertant strain in vivo was compared by pulse-chase experiment, it was found that processing is less efficient than normal in the revertant. Purified mature proteins from both wild-type and revertant were subjected to amino acid sequencing. The results confirmed the amino acid changes deduced from the DNA sequencing and showed that processing of the revertant precursor occured in the correct position even though there are two different amino acids present in the signal sequence.

The purpose of this study was to know about the influence of consumers' knowledge level(expert vs novice) on their behavioral intentions by the storytelling about local foods. Reviewing previous storytelling studies related to local foods containing each region's traditional food culture in Korea, it can identify that most studies focused on the necessity of storytelling, the discovery of story materials, the importance of storytelling for food tour. Therefore, this study tried to know about how the storytelling about local foods influenced on the consumers' behavioral intentions, and set the attributes of storytelling and the consumers' local food-purchasing region as adjustable variances. Finally, in case that the consumers' knowledge level was low and their food-purchasing regions were not same, this study suggested the attributes of most preferred storytelling by consumers. By doing so, this study tried to discover the storytelling skills of local foods representing each region or to suggest a method to increase the cultural values of each local food in case of creating a story about the local food.

As software and artificial intelligence education became more and more important, in December 2019, the Ministry of Science and ICT announced plans to expand software and AI education to mandatory education in elementary and secondary schools by 2022. In addition to elementary and secondary schools, most universities are actively engaged in software education for computer non-majors, but research on coding education for computer non-majors is insufficient. The purpose of this paper is to find an efficient teaching and learning method for coding education for computer non-majors. Nowadays, college students, called Millennial and Generation Z, prefer visual information and are familiar with computers as digital natives. Based on these characteristics, this study examined the visual literacy and thinking styles of college students and then examined whether the students' visual literacy and thinking styles influenced coding-based problem solving in coding subjects. Based on this, this paper proposes an alternative to do programming education more efficiently for students who are new to coding.

Uniform navigation of NPCs in computer games is an important factor that can decrease the interest of game players. This problem is particularly noticeable in pathfinding when using a waypoint graph because the NPCs navigate using only predefined locations. In this paper we propose a method that enables adaptive navigations of NPCs by observing player movements. The proposed method involves modification of waypoints dynamically by observing the player's point designation and use of the modified waypoints for NPC's pathfinding. Also, we propose an algorithm to find the NPC-specific path by learning the landform preferences of players. We simulate the implemented algorithm in an RPG game made with Unity 4.0 and confirm that NPC navigations had more variety and improved according to player navigations.

가뭄은 홍수와 달리 진행속도가 비교적 느리기 때문에 초기에 감지한다면 피해를 최소화 할 수 있다. 국내에서는 가뭄전망을 위해 물리적 기반의 기상-수문연계해석 시스템을 구축하여 월 내지 계절전망을 수행하고 있다. 물리적 기반의 가뭄전망은 수치예보모델의 불확실성을 가지고 있으므로 예보 정확도 개선의 측면에서는 통계적 모델을 같이 활용하는 것이 바람직하다. 최근 국외에서는 통계적 방법인 AI (Artificial Intelligence) 기술을 사용하여 가뭄을 전망하는 연구가 활발히 진행 중이나, 아직까지 국내에서는 관련연구가 미흡한 실정이다. 이에 본 연구에서는 ANFIS (Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System) 기반의 댐 유입량 예측 모델을 구축하고 SRI (Standardized Runoff Index)를 활용하여 수문학적 가뭄전망을 수행하였다. 대상유역은 국내 주요 다목적댐이 위치한 충주댐 유역과 소양강댐 유역을 선정하였다. 수문 및 기상자료는 국토 교통부 및 기상청의 관측 댐 유입량, 관측 강수량, 관측 기온 및 장기기상예보 자료를 사용하였다. ANFIS 모델 구축을 위한 훈련 및 보정기간과 검정기간은 각각 1987~2010년과 2011~2016년을 선정하였다. 수문학적 가뭄전망은 지속기간 3개월의 1개월 전망 SRI3를 활용하였으며, SRI3는 관측유입량과 예측유입량을 결합하여 산정하였다. 댐 예측유입량 및 수문학적 가뭄전망의 정확도 평가를 위해 상관계수, 평균제곱근오차를 활용하였다. 댐 예측유입량 평가 결과 예측값과 관측값의 상관계수가 높게 나타났으며, 평균제곱근오차는 낮아 예측성이 뛰어났다. SRI3의 경우 관측값과 예측값의 가뭄발생시기가 유사하여 가뭄을 적절하게 반영하는 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구의 결과는 통계적 기반의 수문학적 가뭄전망기법을 개발하였다는 측면에서 의의가 있으며, 향후 물리적 기반의 가뭄전망정보와 결합한다면 보다 실효성이 향상될 것으로 기대된다.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the users' expectation and expectation gap about the attributes of smart speaker as an intelligent agent, ie autonomy, sociality, responsiveness, activeness, time continuity, goal orientation. To this end, semi-structured interviews were conducted for smart speaker users and analyzed based on ground theory. Result has shown that people have huge expectation gap about the sociality and human-likeness of smart speakers, due to limitations in technology. The responsiveness of smart speakers was found to have positive expectation gap. For the memory of time-sequential information, there was an ambivalent expectation gap depending on the degree of information sensitivity and presentation method. We also found that there was a low expectation level for autonomous aspects of smart speakers. In addition, proactive aspects were preferred only when appropriate for the context. This study presents implications for designing a way to interact with smart speakers and managing expectations.

With increasing airtight building construction aimed at reducing energy consumption, indoor relative humidity is increasing which can lead to condensation and moisture damage in multi-family residential buildings. This has led to increased implementation of mechanical ventilation to control indoor moisture. However mechanical ventilation systems consume additional energy and generate noise. As this leads to occupant discomfort, it is necessary to select a ventilation system that addresses the energy and noise issues. This research measured the ventilation performance, energy consumption, and noise level of mechanical ventilation devices in multi-family residential buildings. TOPSIS, a multi-criteria decision making technique was used to determine appropriate ventilation strategies in addition to occupant ventilation system operation preference.

In this paper, we developed a design thinking-based artificial intelligence education program for middle school students and applied it to verify the impact on creative problem-solving skills. The inspection tool used the Creative Problem Solving Profile Inventory (CPSPI), an inspection tool for measuring creative thinking type ability based on the CPS theory of Hwasun Lee, Jungmin Pyo, Insoo Choe(2014). CPSPI included the steps of evaluating cognitive preferences and cognitive abilities by supplementing the limitations of existing tests, and sharing and persuading one's ideas with others. Before and after applying the design thinking-based artificial intelligence education program, as a result of analyzing the creative problem-solving ability, it increased significantly in all areas. As a result of analyzing the creative problem-solving ability of middle school students, significant results were found in the areas of Problem Detection and Analysis, Idea Generation, Action plan, Execution, Persuasion and Communication. The effect of design thinking was confirmed as a teaching and learning method to improve creative problem-solving ability in artificial intelligence education.
