The use of gestures provides an attractive alternate to cumbersome interface devices for human-computer interaction. This has motivated a very active research area concerned with computer vision-based analysis and interpretation of hand gestures The most important issues in gesture recognition are the simplification of algorithm and the reduction of processing time. The mathematical morphology based on geometrical set theory is best used to perform the processing. The key idea of proposed algorithm is to track a trajectory of center points in primitive elements extracted by morphological shape decomposition. The trajectory of morphological center points includes the information on shape orientation. Based on this characteristic we proposed the morphological gesture sequence recognition algorithm using feature vectors calculated to the trajectory of morphological center points. Through the experiment, we demonstrated the efficiency of proposed algorithm.

Rock Mass Rating has been widely applied to the underground tunnel excavation and many other practical problems in rock engineering. However, Rock Mass Rating is hard, even by the experts of tunnel assessment owing to lack of investigation system. In this study, using multivariate analysis we presented rock mass rating system that is objective and easy to use. The constituents of RMR are decided to RQD, condition of discontinuities, groundwater conditions, intact rock strength, orientation of discontinuities, spacing of discontinuities in important order. In each step, we proposed the best multiple regression model for RMR system.

Various fluoride films on a glass substrate were prepared and characterized in order to determine the best seed layer for a microcrystalline silicon (${\mu}c$-Si) film growth. Among the various group-IIA-fluoride systems, the $CaF_2$films on glass substrates illustrated (220) preferential orientation and a lattice mismatch of less than 0.7% with Si. $CaF_2$ films exhibited a dielectric constant between $4.1{\sim}5.2$ and an interface trap density ($D_{it}$ as low as $1.8{\times}10^{11}\;cm^{-2}eV^1$. Using the $CaF_2$/glass structure, we were able to achieve an improved ${\mu}c$-Si film at a process temperature of 300 $^{\circ}C$. We have achieved the ${\mu}c$-Si films with a crystalline volume fraction of 65%, a grain size of 700 ${\AA}$, and an activation energy of 0.49 eV.

Biosensors consist of biochemical recognition agents like antibodies immobilized on the surfaces of transducers that change the recognition into a measurable electronic signal. Here we report a piezoelectric immunosensor made to detect Vibrio vulnificus. A 9MHz AT-cut piezoelectric wafer attached with two gold electrodes of 5mm diameter was used as the transducer of the QCM biosensor with a reproducibility of ${\pm}0.1Hz$ in frequency response. We have tried different approaches to immobilize antibody on the sensor chip. Concerning the orientation of antibody for the best antigen binding capacity, the antibody was immobilized by specific binding to protein G or by cross-linking through hydrazine. In addition, protein G was cross-linked on glutaraldehyde activated immine layer (PEI) or EDC/NHS activated sulfide monolayer (MPA). PEI was found to be more effective to immobilize protein G following glutaraldehyde activation than MPA. However, hydrazine chip showed a better capability to immobilize more IgG than protein G chip and a higher sensitivity. The sensor system was able to detect V. vulnificus in dose dependent manner and was able to detect bacterial cells within 5 minutes by monitoring frequency shifts in real time. The detection limit can be improved by preincubation to enrich the bacterial cell number.

We fabricated a tin sulfide (SnS) layer with Sn/Mo/glass layers followed by a RTP (rapid thermal processing), and studied the film growth and structural characteristics as a function of annealing temperature and time. The elemental sulfur (S) was cracked thermally and applied to form SnS polycrystalline film out of the Sn percursor at pre-determined pressures in the RTP tube. The sulfurization was done at the temperature from $200^{\circ}C$ to $500^{\circ}C$ for a time period of 10 to 40 min. At ${\leq}300^{\circ}C$, 20 min., p-type SnS thin films was grown and showed the best composition of at.% of [S]/[Sn] $${\sim_=}$$ 1 and [111] preferred orientation as investigated from using XRD (X-ray diffraction) analysis and EDS (energy dispersive spectroscopy) and SEM (scanning electron microscopy), and optical absorption by a UV-VIS spectrometer. In this paper, we report the details of growth characteristics of single phase SnS thin film as a function of annealing temperature and time associated with the pressure and ambient gas in the RTP tube.

In this study, the three-dimensional finite element method is used to determine the stress intensity factor in Mode I and Mixed mode of a centered crack in an aluminum specimen repaired by a composite patch using contour integral. Various mesh densities were used to achieve convergence of the results. The effect of adhesive joint thickness, patch thickness, patch-specimen interface and layer sequence on the SIF was highlighted. The results obtained show that the patch-specimen contact surface is the best indicator of the deceleration of crack propagation, and hence of SIF reduction. Thus, the reduction in rigidity of the patch especially at adhesive layer-patch interface, allows the lowering of shear and normal stresses in the adhesive joint. The choice of the orientation of the adhesive layer-patch contact is important in the evolution of the shear and peel stresses. The patch will be more beneficial and effective while using the cross-layer on the contact surface.

The University students learn their major or a general education in lecture rooms. In these days, lecturer use frequently various multimedia in lecture room. Appropriate control lighting environment in lecture room should be essential and related in efficient studying. Daylighting on front-side of lecture room will cause glare and students are hard to read contents on white-board at their seat. Therefore, in order to preventing glare we simulated daylighting of lecture room with using computer software in this study. Results from simulation and analysis as follows: The first, if students' left-side is east-oriented in lecture room, best daylighting condition about glare in lecture room. The second, architectural designers can use simulation data of daylighting or simulate data in designing university buildings with lecture rooms. Finally, if reducing size of windows (narrow and deep daylight: more closing vertically, from up to down daylighting: more closing horizontally) we will be able to reduce energy from lecture room.

Recently cosmetic enterprises make rapid progress try to make well-known brands to perceive an image marketing. As the result, the brand's reliability continues to grow, beyond a medium of expression in two-dimensional, but through tridimensional, on brand's image runs strategies. In a strategic point suchlike visual as a shop's image give a stimulus to customers for increase invalue in corporate image and value of commodities. In the strategy of increase in sales, it is on the rise immediate constituent to consumers. Through cosmetic brand shops, cosmetic industries are provide personalized services and cultural facilities, rather than just selling products and to help revitalization of the cosmetic markets, and the pursuit of customer-oriented segmentation strategy to make changes for the better image for the shops. Each cosmetic brand shops' image of segmentation strategy has an effect on individual organizations and designs. As of today in Korea, cosmetic brand shop's designs, start to appear in the late 2000,will try to fine segmentation strategy for strengthen shop's image and research about unique quality of cosmetic brand shops into consumer orientation space, and make the best of significant prepare on the basis of directions for cosmetic brand shop which have ability to function as cultural facilities.

The fire hazards and combustion heat of puzzle mats in group day care home were analysed using variable external irradiation level. The fire hazards such as ignition time, ignition temperature, mass loss rate, and flame temperature profile were measured. Incident heat fluxes of $15kW/m^2$, $20kW/m^2$, $25kW/m^2$, $35kW/m^2$, $50kW/m^2$ and $75kW/m^2$ were selected for these experiments. All samples were tested in the horizontal orientation and were wrapped in a single layer of aluminium foil. Each sample was nominally 20mm thick and 100mm square. Five samples of puzzle mat were tested in the study : Type A, B, C, D and E. Type A, B and C are all general grades whereas Type D and E are both Flame retardant grades. As results, Type E of FR-grade showed the best characteristics in safety of the early fire from ignition time, critical heat flux, and ignition and flame temperature data of this study. All specimen of G-grade(Type A, B and C), however, showed the weak in safety of fire.

The application of simulated KOMPSAT-2 imagery to monitor graveyards is to be developed. Positions calculated from image were compared with those obtained from Geographic Positioning System. With 24 checkpoints, the position of graveyards showed within 5-meter range. Unsupervised classification, supervised classification, and objected-orientation classification algorithms were used to extract the graveyard. Unsupervised classification with masking processes based on National topographic data gives the best result. The graveyards were categorized with four types in field studies while the two types of graveyards were shown in descriptive statistics. Cluster Analysis and discriminant analysis showed the consistency with two types of tombs. It was hard to get a specific spectral signature of graveyards, as they are covered with grasses at different levels and shaded from the surrounding trees. The slopes and aspects of location of graveyards did not make any difference in the spectral signatures. This study gives the basic spectral characteristics for further development of objected-oriented classification algorithms and plausibility of KOMPSAT-2 images for management of mountainous areas in the aspect of position accuracy and classification accuracy.
