The wavefront printer records a volume-reflection hologram as a two-dimensional array of elemental holograms from computer-generated holograms (CGHs) displayed on a spatial light modulator (SLM). The wavefront coming from the object is extracted by filtering in the spatial-frequency domain. This paper presents a method to improve color reproduction in a wavefront printer with spatial division of exposures at primary colors, by adaptive partitioning of the SLM in accordance with the color content encoded in the input CGHs, and by the controllable change of exposure times for the recording of primary colors. The method is verified with a color wavefront printer with demagnification of the object beam. The quality of reconstruction achieved by the proposed method proves its efficiency in eliminating the stripe artifacts that are superimposed on reconstructed images in conventional mosaic recording.

The aim of this research is to establish basic materials for fashion merchandising by observing the street fashion of the juveniles and by analyzing their wearing, coordination and fashion trend. We have taken the photograph of the street fashion of 202 male teenagers and 265 female teenagers in Busan, and analyzed in the category of style, item, color, pattern, materials, hair style, shoes and accessories. We have concluded that the most frequent items were shirts (male), turtle neck (female) and jeans. The main style was casual just as jumper-look, sweater-look, gardigan-look. The typical female fashions that were hip-hop-look, twin neat-look, trench coat-look, were more various than male. For the color coordination, contrast color coordination was more dominant than similarity color coordination. Dominant patterns were solid, and also check and stripe patterns were frequently found in upper garment. The representative materials were soft for upper garment, and hard for trousers. Male teenagers prefer middle-length hair style and female teenagers prefer long hair style. The juveniles in Busan are wearing sports shoes and leather shoes in similar frequency. Their favorite accessories are bag, muffler and hat.

Yellow poplar is well known commercial hardwood species in the world because of its availability, rapid growth, large size, excellent form, early natural pruning, and the good working quality of the wood. Therefore, yellow poplar (Liriodendron tulipifera L.) has been adopted in South Korea for decades ago, and its cultivating the saplings and silvicultural system have been studied. However, yellow poplar is still embroiled in controversy for utilization of use and worth. This species has not only advantages such as lower weight, light color, and higher machinability and bending processing, but also has disadvantages which are bad smell and different colors on heartwood and sapwood. In this study, the objective was that use of yellow poplar board as furniture materials by drying and painting process. Thirty years old yellow poplar was cut and dried for 7 days by high-frequency dryness. Adjustment of color tone to walnut color was conducted with multiple colorants and various number of spread times. Uniform color of yellow poplar on heartwood and sapwood was accomplished by applying 1 time stain (green), 2 times transparent primer, 1 time middle-painting (walnut), and 2 times top-painting (walnut) in sequentially. The painted yellow poplar board was used to manufacture table and dressing table. During the furniture manufacture process, no critical issues were occurred on part of jointing and painting. This painting method may be useful data for future use of yellow poplar as furniture materials.

Purpose - This thesis aims to increase the success of Korean fashion brands in the Chinese consumer market by providing basic items in fashion colors preferred by women in their twenties and thirties, having the highest purchasing power, in Beijing and Seoul, in the summer of 2012. Research Methodology - The street fashion color data were retrieved for the case study by taking pictures and recording videos at the famous fashion streets in Beijing and Seoul. The WINDOWS SPSS 18.0 program was applied, to determine the frequency of street fashion colors. Results - The results might be ascribed to the tendency of Chinese women to favor the symbolism of traditional colors. Conversely, women in Seoul have more attachment to international fashion color trends than to the traditional color symbolism. Conclusions - This study suggests that Korean companies should consider the differences in street fashion color preferences when planning to launch a fashion brand in the Chinese consumer market. To gain the long-term perspective, further research on the local Chinese area might be essential to help Korean fashion companies and brands launch into the Chinese consumer market.

In the luminance and chrominance signal, luminance signal creates gray images, and is capable of making each color component compatible with monochrome system. And color components of luminance and chrominance signals are useful to encode or convert the signal because they have low correlation. Each color signal has low correlation statistically, but they are not independent of one another. Therefore, this paper proposes the watermark inserting algorithm for luminance and chrominance signal in the domain of frequency founded on wavelet, considering the interdependent characteristics of color components. Therefore, it can guarantee the robustness and invisible of digital watermark.

This study proposes a new digital watermarking technique based on wavelet transformation on color image. First the $YC_bC_r$ coordinates obtain from RGB color space. then, the correlation of watermark is decreased by Arnold transformation. Next, watermark which has been enlarged by Linear Bit-expansion is inserted at a given intensity in Color images' low frequency sub-bands. When detecting the presence of watermark, F-norm function is applied. As a result of the various experiments on color images, the proposed watermarking technique has outstanding quality in regards to fidelity and robustness.
