  • For the economic management of photovoltaic power plants, it is necessary to regularly monitor the panels within the plants to detect malfunctions. Thermal infrared image cameras are generally used for monitoring, since malfunctioning panels emit higher temperatures compared to those that are functioning. Recently, technologies that observe photovoltaic arrays by mounting thermal infrared cameras on UAVs (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle) are being developed for the efficient monitoring of large-scale photovoltaic power plants. However, the technologies developed until now have had the shortcomings of having to analyze the images manually to detect malfunctioning panels, which is time-consuming. In this paper, we propose an automatic photovoltaic panel area extraction algorithm for thermal infrared images acquired via a UAV. In the thermal infrared images, panel boundaries are presented as obvious linear features, and the panels are regularly arranged. Therefore, we exaggerate the linear features with a vertical and horizontal filtering algorithm, and apply a modified hierarchical histogram clustering method to extract candidates of panel boundaries. Among the candidates, initial panel areas are extracted by exclusion editing with the results of the photovoltaic array area detection. In this step, thresholding and image morphological algorithms are applied. Finally, panel areas are refined with the geometry of the surrounding panels. The accuracy of the results is evaluated quantitatively by manually digitized data, and a mean completeness of 95.0%, a mean correctness of 96.9%, and mean quality of 92.1 percent are obtained with the proposed algorithm.

  • Purpose: Although there is a lot of secondary data available for comparing community health status and planning health policies in terms of large area such as metropolitan cities or provinces, there is restricted data for establishing community health policies of the small areas such as towns, Gun(i.e., districts), and Gu. Specifically, the problems of producing a valuable index for health promotion in small areas are three fold: First, there is not an appropriate index model for measuring a small community health status. Second, a large part of secondary data in the small areas has been produced in an irregular time interval. In addition, all valuable data can not be integrated without time consuming work. Thus this study tries to establish a health promotion index model for assisting community health promotion initiatives of local governments. Methods and materials: Literature review, community health specialist consultation and a questionnaire survey was performed. Results: Based on Dever's model, a prototype of health promotion indicators was proposed and modified by the community health specialists. 15 classification scheme of statistical yearbook reorganized into the six areas. Those six areas were comprised in 24 indicator class with 96 specific indicators. Through further modification processes by a questionnaire survey, we developed a health promotion indicator model that contains six areas with 23 indicator class encompassed by 87 specific indicators. Conclusions: This study proposed a model of health promotion indicator comprised in the six areas with 23 indicator classes for measuring small area health promotion status. However, more specific or additional data in human biology, environment, and socioeconomic data is essential for producing a stronger model for health promotion measurement.

  • In this study, an architecture for 262K-color TFT-LCD source driver. In this paper proposed the chip consumes smaller area and static current which is suitable for QVGA resolutions. In the conventional structures, all of them need large number of OPAMP buffers to drive the pixels, Therefore, highly resistive R-DACs are needed to generate gamma voltages to reduce the static current. In this study, our design only used two OPAMPs and low resistance RDACs without increasing the quiescent current. Thus, it was experted that chip would be more in consuming lower static power for longer battery lifetime. The source driver were implemented by the 3.3 V $0.35\;{\mu}m$ CMOS technology provided by TSMC. The area of the core OPAMP circuit was about $110\;{\mu}m\;{\times}\;150\;{\mu}m$ and that of the source driver was $880\;{\mu}m\;{\times}\;430\;{\mu}m$. As compared to the conventional structure, approximately 64.48 % in area was achieved.

  • 본 논문에서는 연산 시간이 긴 곱셈기 패스를 낮은 주파수에서 동작하는 저면적의 HEVC(High Efficiency Video Coding)용 다중 모드 일차원 변환 블록을 구현하는 효율적인 방법을 제시하였다. 제시한 방법은 전체 면적을 줄이기 위하여 일반적인 변수와 변수를 입력으로 받는 곱셈기 대신 행렬의 계수 특성을 이용한 상수와 변수를 입력으로 받는 상수 곱셈기를 사용하였다. 상수 곱셈기 사용으로 인하여 전체적인 처리량을 증가시켰으며 늘어난 처리량으로 인해 남는 동작 사이클을 이용하여 연산시간이 많이 걸리는 곱셈기 부분에 멀티 사이클 패스를 구성하여 곱셈기의 동작 주파수를 낮게 하면서 전체 연산량은 유지시켰다. TSMC 0.18um CMOS 공정 라이브러리를 이용하여 실제 하드웨어를 구현한 결과 4k($3840{\times}2160$) 영상을 기준으로 최소 동작 주파수는 186MHz이고 최대 동작 주파수는 300MHz이다.

  • Carbon storage is one of the regulating ecosystem services provided by urban street trees. It is important that evaluating the economic value of ecosystem services accurately. The carbon storage of street trees was calculated by measuring the morphological parameter on the field. As the method is labor-intensive and time-consuming for the macro-scale research, remote sensing has been more widely used. The airborne Light Detection And Ranging (LiDAR) is used in obtaining the point clouds data of a densely planted area and extracting individual trees for the carbon storage estimation. However, the LiDAR has limitations such as high cost and complicated operations. In addition, trees change over time they need to be frequently. Therefore, Structure from Motion (SfM) photogrammetry with unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) is a more suitable method for obtaining point clouds data. In this paper, a UAV loaded with a digital camera was employed to take oblique aerial images for generating point cloud of street trees. We extracted the diameter of breast height (DBH) from generated point cloud data to calculate the carbon storage. We compared DBH calculated from UAV data and measured data from the field in the selected area. The calculated DBH was used to estimate the carbon storage of street trees in the study area using a regression model. The results demonstrate the feasibility and effectiveness of applying UAV imagery and SfM technique to the carbon storage estimation of street trees. The technique can contribute to efficiently building inventories of the carbon storage of street trees in urban areas.

  • Cultural value is widely accepted as the crucial concept in understanding consumer behavior: cultural values influence consumption values, which determine choices of consuming everyday products and services. The objectives of this study were to (a) identify the difference between cultural and consumption values in the Korean fashion industry and (b) to explain the difference using the existing theories introducing fashion system, which are Solomon(2002)'s cultural production model in marketing area and Hamilton(1997)'s fashion system arbiter in clothing area. The qualitative data used to identify cultural values were 160 apparel advertisements listed in a fashion magazine issued in 2002. Utilizing the convenient sampling method, the quantitative data used to identify consumption values were gathered by surveying female university students aged over 20 living in the Seoul metropolitan area. Of 369 returned questionnaires, 255 were used in factor analysis and paired t-test. Cultural value ignored functional aspect of apparel while it was one of the most salient factors for consumption value. With respect to success and fashion orientation factors, cultural value highly appreciated them while they were the least considered factors for consumption value. These implicate that the Korean fashion industry can be explained by Hamilton's macro-level cultural and fashion system arbiters and cultural production model as well. Introducing macro-level perspectives about fashion system, this study encourages researchers to expand their research spectrum from micro-level consumers to macro-level fashion industry, which has long been neglected by the fashion marketing researchers in Korea.

  • This study was performed to compare the dietary behaviors of university students in Incheon area by residence types. The population was divided into 4 groups by residence types: family home in Incheon, family home in another area except Incheon, boarding house and, university dormitory. The general subject, health behavior, and dietary behavior of each group were investigated using a one-week questionnaire and the results were as follows. The average height, weight, and BMI were 175.67 cm, 69.8 kg, and 22.61, respectively, for males and 161.84 cm, 51.51 kg, and 19.66, respectively, for females. The most common residence type of the students was the family home in Incheon. Smoking rate of the students living in a boarding house was higher than the other groups. The rate of exercising and consumption of supplements were lower than the other groups. Most of the students frequently skipped breakfast. Boarding and dormitory students missed breakfast more than any of the other groups. The main reason for skipping meals was lack of time. The favorite snack type was confectionery and ice cream. Most of the students had snacks between lunch and dinner or after dinner. The frequency of consuming beans, fruits and, dairy products among 13 food items for boarding and dormitory students were lower than the other groups. The results of this study suggest that nutritional education for university students is needed to improve their dietary behavior and to maintain their health.

  • 현재 녹지 연결성 조사는 대부분 현지조사에 의존하고 있어, 특정시기의 특정지점에서 조사된 결과에 주안점을 두고 있다. 그리하여 조사지점의 대표성에 한계가 있고 많은 시간이 소요되고, 조사 대상물 위치의 부정확, 경제적 비효용 등이 문제점으로 지적되어왔다. 본 연구는 이러한 문제에 대한 대안을 제시하기 위해 Landsat TM (Thematic Mapper) 영상의 픽셀에 의거한 녹지 연계망을 평가하고자 출발하였다. 그리하여 원격탐사 기법이 녹지 연계망을 평가할 수 있는 도구로서의 가능성을 지니고 있는 지를 평가하고자 특정 사례 연구지역에 대해 실증적인 연구가 수행되었다. 조사지점에만 국한된 현지조사 방식과 달리 픽셀 기반의 평가는 광역적인 녹지 연계망의 분포실태를 단시간에 제시하였다. 녹지 연계망 훼손 추세 평가는 다양한 시기의 녹지 변화 실태를 정량적으로 제시하고 있기 때문에 그 결과가 녹지 연계망 보전과정에서 설득력을 지닌 근거자료로 활용될 수 있을 것으로 판단된다. 본 연구가 녹지 연계망 감시에서 객관적인 데이터에 의거한 정책결정이 아닌 직관에 의존하여 왔던 관행을 개선될 수 있는 계기가 되어 향후 녹지 연계망 보전관련 중요한 참고자료가 될 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

  • Thin films of polycrystalline silicon (poly-Si) is a promising material for use in large-area electronic devices. Especially, the poly-Si can be used in high resolution and integrated active-matrix liquid-crystal displays (AMLCDs) and active matrix organic light-emitting diodes (AMOLEDs) because of its high mobility compared to hydrogenated _amorphous silicon (a-Si:H). A number of techniques have been proposed during the past several years to achieve poly-Si on large-area glass substrate. However, the conventional method for fabrication of poly-Si could not apply for glass instead of wafer or quartz substrate. Because the conventional method, low pressure chemical vapor deposition (LPCVD) has a high deposition temperature ($600^{\circ}C-1000^{\circ}C$) and solid phase crystallization (SPC) has a high annealing temperature ($600^{\circ}C-700^{\circ}C$). And also these are required time-consuming processes, which are too long to prevent the thermal damage of corning glass such as bending and fracture. The deposition of silicon thin films on low-cost foreign substrates has recently become a major objective in the search for processes having energy consumption and reaching a better cost evaluation. Hence, combining inexpensive deposition techniques with the growth of crystalline silicon seems to be a straightforward way of ensuring reduced production costs of large-area electronic devices. We have deposited crystalline poly-Si thin films on soda -lime glass and SiOz glass substrate as deposited by PVD at low substrate temperature using high power, magnetron sputtering method. The epitaxial orientation, microstructual characteristics and surface properties of the films were analyzed by TEM, XRD, and AFM. For the electrical characterization of these films, its properties were obtained from the Hall effect measurement by the Van der Pauw measurement.
