북한은 비대칭 전력으로 다양한 사거리의 미사일을 개발해 실전 배치했다. 이들 미사일 가운데 단거리 탄도미사일은 정확도를 향상시켜 적은 수의 미사일로 우리 군의 주요시설을 타격해 전술목표를 달성하는 것을 목표로 할 것으로 예상된다. 이는 전시 북한의 주요 공격 대상 중에 하나인 비행장에 대한 중대한 위협으로, 만약 공격을 받을 경우 전시 항공 우위 확보에 필수적인 공군 전투기의 운용을 제한할 수 있다. 이에 따라 위협이 되는 단거리탄도탄을 기반으로 군 비행장별 피해확률을 시뮬레이션하였고, 소극적인 방어의 일환으로 전력배치 변화를 통해 전투력 손실 감소 방안을 연구하였다. 그 결과 현재 배치에 비해 전력의 손실량을 줄일 수 있는 배치방안을 도출할 수 있었다.

The multi-scenario topology of multi-channel hybrid ubiquitous sensor networks (USNs) is studied and a novel link auto-diversity cross-layer cooperative scheduling scheme is proposed in this paper. The proposed scheme integrates the attributes of the new performance evaluation link auto-diversity air-time metric and the topology space in the given multi-scenario. The proposed scheme is compared with other schemes, and its superiority is demonstrated through simulations. The simulation results show that relative energy consumption, link reception probability, and end-to-end blocking probability are improved. The addressing ratio of success with unchanged parameters and external information can be increased. The network can tolerate more hops to support reliable transportation when the proposed scheme is implemented. Moreover, the scheme can make the network stable. Therefore, the proposed scheme can enhance the average rate performance of the hybrid USN and stabilize the outage probability.

Facial expression recognition systems using video devices have emerged as an important component of natural human-machine interfaces which contribute to various practical applications such as security systems, behavioral science and clinical practices. In this work, we present a new method to analyze, represent and recognize human facial expressions using a sequence of facial images. Under our proposed facial expression recognition framework, the overall procedure includes: accurate face detection to remove background and noise effects from the raw image sequences and align each image using vertex mask generation. Furthermore, these features are reduced by principal component analysis. Finally, these augmented features are trained and tested using Hidden Markov Model (HMM). The experimental evaluation demonstrated the proposed approach over two public datasets such as Cohn-Kanade and AT&T datasets of facial expression videos that achieved expression recognition results as 96.75% and 96.92%. Besides, the recognition results show the superiority of the proposed approach over the state of the art methods.

Event detection in wireless sensor networks is a key requirement in many applications. Acoustic sensors are one of the most frequently used sensors for event detection in sensor networks, but they are sensitive and difficult to handle because they vary greatly depending on the environment and target characteristics of the sensor field. In this paper, we propose a learning-based improvement of CFAR algorithm for increasing node-level event detection performance in acoustic sensor networks, and verify the effectiveness of the designed algorithm by comparing and evaluating the event detection performance with other algorithms. Our experimental results demonstrate the superiority of the proposed algorithm by increasing the detection accuracy by more than 45.16% by significantly reducing false positives by 7.97 times while slightly increasing the false negative compared to the existing algorithm.

The electric motor is essential to drive turbo machinery. In order to overcome the speed limitations of general motors, the inverter is used to perform high speed to tens of rpm. The high speed drives are widely used in many applications such as turbo blower, turbo centrifugal compressors, and pump using air bearing technique. Starting of high speed motor can cause step out, stall, oscillation of motor because the phase inductance is much smaller than that of ordinary motor. This paper studied on the starting characteristic of variable speed centrifugal chiller considering high speed motor characteristics. Finally, the superiority of the inverter is verified by experimental results.

This study was carried out to evaluate the performance of two sampling methods, i.e., adsorbent tubes and canisters, for the measurement of ambient volatile organic compounds (VOCs). A total of 24 target VOCs were selected from a list of 48 priority hazardous air pollutants (HAPs) in Korea. The two sampling methods were investigated with a wide range of performance criteria such as repeatability, linearity, and lower detection limits. In addition, mean relative errors (MRE) and mean duplicate precisions (MDP) were estimated by inter-lab comparison studies for duplicate field samples. Precisions for the two methods appeared to be well comparable with the performance criteria recommended by USEPA TO-15 and TO-17 for canister and adsorbent methods, respectively. Correlations and variations between the VOCs concentrations determined by the two methods were generally good in most cases. However, MREs and MDPs for individual VOCs appeared to be widely ranged, depending on each VOC. This implies that the two methods have its own advantages and disadvantages in determining a variety of VOCs in ambient air, and neither of which has absolute superiority. Finally, 9 of 24 VOCs were found to be difficult to determine by either methods due to their unstability in a canister, and lack of appropriate standard materials. Thus, it is suggested that development of measurement methods for such unstable VOCs is an urgent task from a viewpoint of HAPs management.

This article is focused how the maritime strategy between continental powered country(the Soviet, the China) and maritime powered country(the U.S.) interact with attack and defense theory. We will know, what is the maritime strategy that the U.S. of military superiority has pursued with the point of view of attack, on the other hand, relatively what is the maritime strategy that the Soviet-Sino of military inferiority has pursued with the point of view of defense. In cold war, the Soviet has counteracted to 'blue belt defense' in active defense as to the U.S. 'sea strike' and in post cold war, the China counteract to 'A2/AD' as to the U.S. 'Air-Sea Battle'. The difference between the Soviet-Sino maritime strategy is that the China has emerged the second an economic power and their leadership has a strong's will to strengthen their navy's power. although the U.S. declare the pivot to Asia, the influence on Asia of the U.S. tend to decrease because of sequest. therefore, the China will seek to the more active defense beyond the first island chain. Meanwhile, the U.S. has reinforced of 'hub and spoke strategy' to solidify the U.S. formal allies to band together regional powers and to overcome the A2/AD challenge, the U.S. has been developed that the Air-Sea Battle concept meshes with Washington's 'rebalancing' policy toward the Asia-Pacific as its vital missions to safeguard core island or semi-island allies-namely, Korea and Japan-and crucial sea lanes of communication in the region are conducted mostly from or over the sea.

본 논문에서는 군용 항공기의 시각 탐지(visual detection)를 지연시키는 위장기술에 대하여 조사하였다. 위장(camouflage)이란 관찰자에게 드러나 보이지 않도록 어떤 물체를 거짓으로 꾸미는 것으로 정의할 수 있다. 그러나 군사적 관점에서의 위장은 완전히 사라지게 하는 것이라기보다는 관찰자의 탐지시간을 연장하거나 탐지가능성(detectability)을 낮추는데 목적이 있다. 기본적으로 항공기 위장은 항공기 위치 탐지를 지연시킬 뿐만 아니라, 관측자에게 항공기의 속도와 고도, 진행방향에 대한 혼란을 유발하여야 한다. 따라서 저(低)탐지기술 또는 위장기술은 군용 항공기의 생존성 향상에 많은 영향을 미치므로 많은 연구가 지속적으로 진행되었다. 근접 지원 항공기 및 제공 전투기의 경우는 다색(multi-tone) 위장패턴과 반음영(counter-shaded) 위장패턴이 일반적으로 적용되고 있다. 아울러, 단색(mono-tone) 위장패턴 역시 색상(hue)과 명도(brightness)가 적절히 조절 및 조합되었을 때 위장효과가 큰 것으로 나타났다. 항공기의 위장 성능 향상을 위한 능동 시각 위장 기술(active camouflage techniques)에 관한 연구도 진행되었다. 특히, 발광 반사율이 높은 발광 장치를 사용하는 Counter-illumination 기술은 항공기 표면과 배경 하늘의 명도차를 최소화하여 위장 효과를 향상시켰다. 이와 같은 능동 시각 위장 기술은 시각 탐지에 비교적 취약한 저고도 무인기의 생존성 향상에 기여할 것으로 기대된다.

Ambient Air Vaporizer (AAV) is an essential facility in the process of generating natural gas that uses air in the atmosphere as a medium for heat exchange to vaporize liquid natural gas into gas-state gas. AAV is more economical and eco-friendly in that it uses less energy compared to the previously used Submerged vaporizer (SMV) and Open-rack vaporizer (ORV). However, AAV is not often applied to actual processes because it is heavily affected by external environments such as atmospheric temperature and humidity. With insufficient operational experience and facility operations that rely on the intuition of the operator, the actual operation of AAV is very inefficient. To address these challenges, this paper proposes an artificial intelligence-based model that can intelligent AAV operations based on operational big data. The proposed artificial intelligence model is used deep neural networks, and the superiority of the artificial intelligence model is verified through multiple regression analysis and comparison. In this paper, the proposed model simulates based on data collected from real-world processes and compared to existing data, showing a 48.8% decrease in power usage compared to previous data. The techniques proposed in this paper can be used to improve the energy efficiency of the current natural gas generation process, and can be applied to other processes in the future.

Background: No consensus exists regarding whether volatile anesthetics are superior to intravenous anesthetics for reducing postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs) in patients undergoing general anesthesia for surgery. Studies of this issue focused on anatomic pulmonary resection are lacking. This study compared the effects of total intravenous anesthesia (TIVA) versus volatile anesthesia on PPCs after anatomic pulmonary resection in patients with lung cancer. Methods: This retrospective study examined the medical records of patients with lung cancer who underwent lung resection at our center between January 2018 and October 2020. The primary outcome was the incidence of PPCs, which included prolonged air leak, pneumonia, acute respiratory distress syndrome, empyema, atelectasis requiring bronchofiberscopy (BFS), acute lung injury (ALI), bronchopleural fistula (BPF), pulmonary embolism, and pulmonary edema. Propensity score matching (PSM) was used to balance the 2 groups. In total, 579 anatomic pulmonary resection cases were included in the final analysis. Results: The analysis showed no statistically significant difference between the volatile anesthesia and TIVA groups in terms of PPCs, except for prolonged air leak. Neither of the groups showed atelectasis requiring BFS, ALI, BPF, pulmonary embolism, or pulmonary edema after PSM. However, the length of hospitalization, intensive care unit stay, and duration of chest tube indwelling were shorter in the TIVA group. Conclusion: Volatile anesthetics showed no superiority compared to TIVA in terms of PPCs after anatomical pulmonary resection in patients with lung cancer. Considering the advantages of each anesthetic modality, appropriate anesthetic modalities should be used in patients with different risk factors and situations.
