Artificial Intelligence (AI) has been inserted into people's lives through Intelligent Virtual Assistants (IVA), like Alexa. Moreover, intelligent systems have expanded to design studios. This research delves into designers' perspectives on developing AI-based practices and examines the challenges of adopting future intelligent design assistants. We surveyed UX/UI professionals in Brazil to understand how they use IVAs and AI design tools. We also explored a scenario featuring the use of Alexa Sensei, a hypothetical voice-controlled AI-based design assistant mixing Alexa and Adobe Sensei characteristics. The findings indicate respondents have had limited opportunities to work with AI, but they expect intelligent systems to improve the efficiency of the design process. Further, majority of the respondents predicted that they would be able to collaborate creatively with AI design systems. Although designers anticipated challenges in natural language interaction, those who already adopted IVAs were less resistant to the idea of working with Alexa Sensei as an AI design assistant.

Artificial intelligence technology in the medical field initially focused on analysis and algorithm development, but it is gradually changing to web application development for service as a product. This paper describes a Urinary Stone segmentation model in abdominal CT images and an artificial intelligence web application based on it. To implement this, a model was developed using U-Net, a fully-convolutional network-based model of the end-to-end method proposed for the purpose of image segmentation in the medical imaging field. And for web service development, it was developed based on AWS cloud using a Python-based micro web framework called Flask. Finally, the result predicted by the urolithiasis segmentation model by model serving is shown as the result of performing the AI web application service. We expect that our proposed AI web application service will be utilized for screening test.

The purpose of this study is to revitalize rehabilitation treatment for people with physical disabilities by presenting a convergence plan between e-sports and rehabilitation exercises using AI-based metaverse. Metaverse-based e-sportscan be useful in providing sports experiences to people with physical disabilities who are unable to participate in society, and this also allows individuals with disabilities to experience sports that are difficult to actually experience. The use of metaverse will enable effective rehabilitation exercise links in vulnerable communities such as hospitals and farming and fishing villages, and provide integrated services of medical and rehabilitation movements that allow exercise data to be managed in an integrated manner. To this end, interdisciplinary experts should participate in the convergence development of e-sports and rehabilitation exercise.

The importance of combat drones has been highlighted through the recent outbreak of the Russia-Ukraine war. The combat drones play a significant role as a a game changer that alters the conventional wisdom of traditional warfare. Many pundits expect the role of combat swarm drones would be more crucial in the future warfare. In this regard, this paper aims to analyze the development of artificial intelligence-enabled combat swarm drones. To transform the human-operated swarm drones into fully autonomous weaponry system our suggestions are as follows. Developments of (1) AI algorithms for optimized swarm drone operations, (2) decentralized command and control system, (3) inter-drones' mission analysis and allocation technology, (4) enhanced drone communication security and (5) set up of ethical guideline for the autonomous system. Specifically, we suggest the development of AI algorithms for drone collision avoidance and moving target attacks. Also, in order to adjust rapidly changing military environment, decentralized command and control system and mission analysis allocation technology are necessary. Lastly, cutting-edging secure communication technology and concrete ethical guidelines are essential for future AI-enabled combat swarm drones.

The purpose of this study is to develop and analyze the effects of an educational program that can cultivate artificial intelligence(AI) convergence education competency for future education and enhance students' understanding of pre-service teachers. For this end, an AI convergence education program using Machine Learning for Kids and Scratch 3 was developed for 15 weeks under the theme of classifying the state of matter. The developed program were treated by K University pre-service teachers who participated voluntarily. As a result, pre-service teachers were able to metaphorically understand the learning process of students through understanding of machine learning training process. In addition, the pre-post t-test result of AI teaching efficacy showed a statistically significant improvement with t=-7.137 (p<.000). Therefore, it is suggested that the AI convergence education program developed in this study can help to increase the understanding of the pre-service teacher's students in an indirect way other than practice teaching, and can contribute to foster AI education competency.

In this study, a transdisciplinary convergence education program was developed to enhance the understanding for classification of reptiles and amphibians in biology education and also to increase AI (Artificial Intelligence) capability by using artificial intelligence education. The main content is to solve the classification of reptiles and amphibians that has been dealt with for a long time in biology education, using a decision tree and ML4K (Machine Learnig for Kids), it was designed for a total of 3 lessons. Experts review was conducted on the developed education program, as a result, the I-CVI(Item Content Validity Index) value was .88~1.00 so that can secure content validity. This education program has the advantage of being able to simultaneously learn about the learning contents of artificial intelligence in informatics and the classification of vertebrates in the biological education. In addition, since it is configured to minimize the cognitive load in the AI using part, it is characterized by the fact that all of any teachers can apply it their lesson easily.

This research addresses sound command based human tracking problems for autonomous cleaning mobile robot in a networked AI space. To solve the problem, the difference among the traveling times of the sound command to each of three microphones has been used to calculate the distance and orientation of the sound from the cleaning mobile robot, which carries the microphone array. The cross-correlation between two signals has been applied for detecting the time difference between two signals, which provides reliable and precise value of the time difference compared to the conventional methods. To generate the tracking direction to the sound command, fuzzy rules are applied and the results are used to control the cleaning mobile robot in a real-time. Finally the experiment results show that the proposed algorithm works well, even though the mobile robot knows little about the environment.

본 논문에서는 노후화된 목조·석조 건축물의 균열을 탐지하는 기법을 소개한다. 본 기법의 목적은 석조·목조 문화재의 시간의 흐름에 따른 관리 소홀, 균열(벌레, 날씨, 기온 등), 배부름 현상에 의한 문화재의 손상을 사전에 방지하기 위함이다. 기존에 존재하는 목조·석조 건축물의 균열, 노후, 배부름 등 다양한 결함과 변형의 탐지 방법은 접촉식 센서를 이용하여 탐지를 해왔지만, 문화재 자체의 미관을 해칠 뿐 아니라 문화재를 추가로 훼손할 가능성이 있다는 문제점이 제시되었다. 이 문제를 해결하기 위해 문화재 비 접촉형 탐지 기법을 사용한다. CCTV 및 DSLR과 같은 관측장비로 촬영한 영상정보를 기반으로 문화재의 결함과 변형을 AI 영상분석 기반 방법으로 판단하는 문제를 제안한다.
