  • In order to establish an effective forest management plan, it is necessary to investigate tree management information such as tree height and DBH(Diameter at breast height). However, research on convergence and application of data acquisition technology to improve the efficiency of existing forest survey methods is insufficient. Therefore, in this study, tree management information was constructed and analyzed using point cloud data acquired through a 3D scanner. Data on the study site was acquired using fixed and mobile 3D scanners, and the efficiency of the mobile 3D scanner was presented through comparison of working hours. In addition, tree management information for object management was constructed by classifying vegetation by object using point cloud data, and by constructing information on chest height diameter and height. As a result of the accuracy evaluation compared with the conventional measurement method, the difference in tree height was 0.02-0.09m and DBH was 0.01-0.04m. If information on the location of vegetation and crowns of each object is constructed through additional research in the future, the efficiency of the work related to forest management information construction can be greatly increased.

  • Fiber-optic strain sensors based on Bragg reflection gratings produce the change of reflection spectrum when an external stress is applied on the sensor. To measure the Bragg reflection wavelength in high speed, an arrayed waveguide grating device is incorporated in this work. By monitoring the output power from each channel of the AWG, the peak wavelength corresponding to the applied strain could be obtained. To enhance the accuracy of the AWG wavelength interrogation system, a chirped fiber Bragg grating with a 3-dB bandwith of 5.4 nm is utilized. The high-speed response of the proposed system is demonstrated by measuring a fast varying strain produced by the damped oscillation of a cantilever. An oscillation frequency of 17.8 Hz and a damping time constant of 0.96 second are obtained in this measurement.

  • Crystals of nicotine dihydroiodide, are orthorhombic with space group $p2_12_12_1$.The unit cell of dimensions a=7.61, b=11.01, e=17.27${\AA}$, contains four formula units. The structure has been determined by X-ray diffraction method and has been refined to give the R-index, ${\sum}{\mid}{\mid}F_{\circ}{\mid}-{\mid}F_c{\mid}{\mid}{\div}{\sum}{\mid}F_{\circ}{\mid}$, of 0.16 and 0.14 for $F_{okl}\;and\;F_{hol}$ respectively.The mean lengths of C-C and C-N bonds in pyridine ring are 1.40 and $1.35{\AA}$ and those in pyrolidine ring 1.56 and $1.48{\AA}$ respectively, though accurate measurement of bond length has not been attempted. The six atoms in the pyridine ring are coplanar and on the other hand $C_6,\;C_7,\;C_8$ and $N_2$ atoms in pyrrolidine ring form a plane within accuracy of the analysis, and $C_9$ atom is distant $0.22{\AA}$ out of the plane consist of $C_6,\;C_7,\;C_8$ and $N_2$ aoms. The normals to the two planes form an angle of $94^{\circ}$ with each other. Iodine atom is distant $3.55{\AA}$ from nitrogen atom in pyridine ring and the other iodine atom $3.58{\AA}$ from nitrogen atom in pyrrolidine ring, so that the nitrogen and iodine atoms are firmly linked.It seems that the only forces binding nicotine dihydroiodide molecules together in the crystal are Van der Waals forces.

  • The accuracy of small and low cost CCD camera is insufficient to provide data for precisely tracking unmanned aerial vehicles(UAVs). This study shows how UAV can hover on a human targeted tracking object by using CCD camera rather than imprecise GPS data. To realize this, UAVs need to recognize their attitude and position in known environment as well as unknown environment. Moreover, it is necessary for their localization to occur naturally. It is desirable for an UAV to estimate of his attitude by environment recognition for UAV hovering, as one of the best important problems. In this paper, we describe a method for the attitude of an UAV using image information of a maker on the floor. This method combines the observed position from GPS sensors and the estimated attitude from the images captured by a fixed camera to estimate an UAV. Using the a priori known path of an UAV in the world coordinates and a perspective camera model, we derive the geometric constraint equations which represent the relation between image frame coordinates for a marker on the floor and the estimated UAV's attitude. Since the equations are based on the estimated position, the measurement error may exist all the time. The proposed method utilizes the error between the observed and estimated image coordinates to localize the UAV. The Kalman filter scheme is applied for this method. its performance is verified by the image processing results and the experiment.

  • A sleep disorder is being recognized as one of the major health issues related to high levels of stress. At the same time, interests about quality of sleep are rapidly increasing. However, diagnosing sleep disorder is not a simple task because patients should undergo polysomnography test, which requires a long time and high cost. To solve this problem, an accelerometer embedded wrist-worn device is being considered as a simple and low cost solution. However, conventional methods determine a state of user to "sleep" or "wake" according to whether values of individual section's accelerometer data exceed a certain threshold or not. As a result, a high miss-classification rate is observed due to user's intermittent movements while sleeping and tiny movements while awake. In this paper, we propose a novel method that resolves the above problems by employing a dynamic classifier which evaluates a similarity between the neighboring data scores obtained from SVM classifier. A performance of the proposed method is evaluated using 50 data sets and its superiority is verified by achieving 88.9% accuracy, 88.9% sensitivity, and 88.5% specificity.

  • Accurate correction of surface effect from back scattered solar radiance is one of key issue to retrieve aerosol information from satellite measurements. In this study, two different methods are applied to retrieve surface reflectance by using single visible channel measurement from meteorological imager onboard COMS. The first one is minimum reflectance method, which composes the minimum value among previously measured reflectances at each pixel over a certain search window length. This method assumes that the darkest pixel corresponds to the aerosol-free condition, and deduces surface reflectance by correcting atmospheric scattering from the measured visible reflectance. The second method, named as the "atmospheric correction method" in this study, estimates the result by correcting aerosol and atmospheric scattering with ground-based observation of aerosol optical properties. The purpose of this study is to investigate the retrieval accuracy of the widelyused minimum reflectance method. Also, the retrieval error caused by the loading of background aerosol is mainly estimated. The comparison between surface reflectances retrieved from the two methods shows good agreement with the correlation coefficient of 0.87. However, the results from the minimum reflectance method are slightly overestimated than the values from the atmospheric correction method when surface reflectance is lower than 0.2. The average difference between the two results is 0.012 without the background aerosol correction. By considering the background aerosol effect, however, the difference is reduced to 0.010.

  • In our study, we investigated the effects of position of endorser and endorser's gaze direction(direct/averted_image/averted_text) on advertising attitude, purchase intent and brand recognition using eye-tracking method. Focusing on the printed cosmetic ads which the role of endorser is important and indirect persuade route is relatively is emphasized, we conducted experiment on 36 participants in 20s. As prior studies, our results shows that participants paid attention to more and faster on specific element which the endorser is gazing at. But it was not reflected to ad attitude and purchase intent directly. When the endorser is positioned in left the side, the highest purchase intent was shown in direct gaze condition, while when the endorser is on the right side, the highest ad attitude was shown in gazing image condition. Additionally, the brand recognition task following eye-tracking experiment shows that recognition accuracy was higher only in condition which the endorser is in the left side looking at the product image. These results demonstrated that the gaze direction of endorser plays a role as attentional guidance, which means it can lead customer's attention to particular region in the printed ad, but the effect can be varied depending on the position of endorser and which type of information the endorser is gazing at. Therefore, ultimately, to increase customer's ad attitude and purchase intent, complex consideration of not only the gazing direction of the endorser, but the position of endorser and other diverse elements is necessary.

  • This study conducts survey on currently working police officers to examine the actual utilization of HUMINT and suggest measures for strengthening the effective intelligence police activity, Intelligence Led Policing. For the completeness of study, this study presented evidences based on survey data from police officers at sites and this study also suggested improvement measures. in regulating the scope of duty, "Act on the Performance of Duties by Police Officers" regulates that 'Gathering, preparation, and distribution of public safety information' is the duty of police officer and defines the information gathering activity of police as the unique work of police officer. Thus, in accordance with "Act on the Performance of Duties by Police Officers", police officers gather various information to prevent crimes and maintain orders. Among the information gathering methods used by police officer, HUMINT is the oldest measure and it is still utilized. HUMINT has the advantages of low expense, high accuracy, and critical impact on the other. Nevertheless, due to limitations in data objectification, measurement, and responses to double attack, HUMINT is underappreciated. With awareness on such HUMINT issues, this study conducted survey on in-service police officers and examined the actual state of HUMINT. Based on the survey result, this study suggested Intelligence-Led Policing as the effective application method.

  • One of the most important factors in predicting tomato growth and yield is the leaf area. Estimating leaf area accurately is the beginning of an effective tomato plant growth assessment model. To this end, this study was conducted to identify the most effective model for estimating plant leaf area through the measurement of tomato plant leaves. Leaf area (LA), leaf length (L), leaf width (W), and lamina length (La) were measured for all leaves of 5 plants at two-week intervals. The correlation between LA and tomato-leaf-independent variables showed a strong positive relationship with the formulas La × W, L × W, La + W, and L + W. For LA estimation, a linear model using the formula LA = a + b (La2 + W2) gave the most accurate estimation (R2 = 0.867, RMSE = 88.76). After examining the positions of upper, middle, and lower leaves from September to December, the coefficient of determination (R2) values for each model were 0.878, 0.726, and 0.794 respectively. The most accurate estimation came from the model that used the upper leaves of the plants. The high accuracy of the upper-leaf-based model is judged by the 50% defoliation performed by farmers after October.

  • In this study, DNN-based models were learned using air quality determination data for 2017, 2019, and 2020 provided by the National Measurement Network (Air Korea), and this models evaluated using data from 2016 and 2018. Based on Pearson correlation coefficient 0.2, four items (SO2, CO, NO2, PM10) were initially modeled as independent variables. In order to improve the accuracy of prediction, monthly independent modeling was carried out. The error was calculated by RMSE (Root Mean Square Error) method, and the initial model of RMSE was 5.78, which was about 46% betterthan the national moving average modelresult (10.77). In addition, the performance improvement of the independent monthly model was observed in months other than November compared to the initial model. Therefore, this study confirms that DNN modeling was effective in predicting PM2.5 concentrations based on air pollutants concentrations, and that the learning performance of the model could be improved by selecting additional independent variables.
