Illumination in church building has played an important role in making workship space more suitable for divine service. As time has changed, however, the worship space of Protestantism is no longer somber and reverent, but changing into practical and multipurpose space with bright and colorful image. This study investigates intensity of illumination of worship space during day and night respectively and figures out the change of psychological change of congregation in accordance with brightness and color temperature in worship space in order to find out preference and look into the usage and change of illumination in recent Protestantism in compliance with the needs of the time and influence. Then, result value is to be compared to Korean Standard intensity of illumination. Also, the correlation between intensity of illumination and color temperature by Kruithof's curve theory is used to identify the comfortableness of the worship space during day and nigh. And it is a common task of space designers and pastors to map out the worship space in terms of illumination suitable for its own purpose with even more modern and Korean sensibility and to create spiritual space for worshippers by collecting opinions from congregation, the main user of the space. With appropriate usage of illumination in Protestantism worship space, the atmosphere and purpose of worship can be enhanced.

This study has tried to develop the modified DRASTIC Model by supplying the parameters,such as structural lineament density and landuse, into conventional DRASTIC medal, and to predict the potential of groundwater contamination using GIS in Whanam 2 Area, Gyeonggi Province, Korea. Since the aquifers in Korea is generally through the joints of rock-mass in hydrogeological environment, lineament denisity affects to the behavior of goundwater and contaminated plumes directly, and land-use reflect the effect of point or non-point source of contamination indirectly. For the statistical analysis, lattice layers of each parameter were generated, and then level of confidence was assessed by analyzing each correlation coefficient. Composite contamination map was achieved as a final result by comparing modified DRASTIC potential and the amount of generation load of several contaminant sources logically. The result could suggest the predictability of the area of contamination potrntial in the respects of hydrogeological aspect and water quality.

In this study, a method for soil moisture estimation was proposed to obtain the nationwide soil moisture distribution map using on-site soil moisture observations, rainfall, surface temperature, NDVI, land cover, effective soil depth, and CART (Classification And Regression Tree) algorithm. The method was applied to the Yong-dam dam basin since the soil moisture data (4 sites) of the basin were reliable. Soil moisture observations of 3 sites (Bu-gui, San-jeon, Cheon-cheon2) were used for training the algorithm and 1 site (Gye-buk2) was used for the algorithm validation. The correlation coefficient between the observed and estimated data of soil moisture in the validation sites is about 0.737. Results show that even though there are limitations of the lack of reliable soil moisture observation for various land use, soil type, and topographic conditions, the soil moisture estimation method using ancillary data and CART algorithm can be a reasonable approach since the algorithm provided a fairly good estimation of soil moisture distribution for the study area.

Objective: In this study, we used resting-state fMRI data to map differences in functional connectivity between a comprehensive set of 8 distinct cortical and subcortical brain regions in healthy controls and Internet addicts. We also investigated the relationship between resting state connectivity strength and the level of psychopathology (ex. score of internet addiction scale and score of Barratt impulsiveness scale). Background: There is a lot of evidence of relationship between Internet addiction and impaired inhibitory control. Clinical evidence suggests that Internet addicts have a high level of impulsivity as measured by behavioral task of response inhibition and a self report questionnaire. Method: 15 Internet addicts and 15 demographically similar non-addicts participated in the current resting-state fMRI experiment. For the connectivity analysis, regions of interests (ROIs) were defined based on the previous studies of addictions. Functional connectivity assessment for each subject was obtained by correlating time-series across the ROIs, resulting in $8{\times}8$ matrixs for each subject. Within-group, functional connectivity patterns were observed by entering the z maps of the ROIs of each subject into second-level one sample t test. Two sample t test was also performed to examine between group differences. Results: Between group, the analysis revealed that the connectivity in between the orbito frontal cortex and inferior parietal cortex, between orbito frontal cortex and putamen, between the orbito frontal cortex and anterior cingulate cortex, between the insula and anterior cingulate cortex, and between amydgala and insula was significantly stronger in control group than in the Internet addicts, while the connectivity in between the orbito frontal cortex and insula showed stronger negative correlation in the Internet addicts relative to control group (p < 0.001, uncorrected). No significant relationship between functional connectivity strength and current degree of Internet addiction and degree of impulsitivy was seen. Conclusion: This study found that Internet addicts had declined connectivity strength in the orbitofrontal cortex (OFC) and other regions (e.g., ACC, IPC, and insula) during resting-state. It may reflect deficits in the OFC function to process information from different area in the corticostriatal reward network. Application: The results might help to develop theoretical modeling of Internet addiction for Internet addiction discrimination.

In this paper, we propose a chaotic correlation delay shift keying(CDSK) using digital retrodirective array antenna (RDA) for improving security and receive performance. Chaotic signals provide improved security due to non-periodic and non-predictable performance of chaotic signals. However, the receive performance of these chaotic signals is degraded due to self-interference and interference signals. Therefore, this paper, we analyze the receive BER performance of chaos communication system which has digital RDA based on CDSK modulation schemes for improving security without receive performance degradation. Simulation results show that the proposed system can get the same receiving performance compared to BPSK modulation schemes when array elements of RDA are 5.

The far ultraviolet (FUV) wavelength (900-1750A) range includes a wealth of important astrophysical information related to the cooling of hot gas, fluorescent emission from H2 molecules, and starlight scattered off dust particles. Among these, we would like to focus on the scattered emission of the central star by dust with the example of the FUV halo surrounding ${\alpha}$ Vir (Spica). While scattering properties of dust have been studied with the GALEX data, the improved dataset of STSAT-1 revealed many detailed structures of this interesting region. For example, the FUV continuum map obtained from the STSAT-1 observations shows enhanced emission in the southern part of the Spica halo region, where the dust level is also high. In fact, the FUV continuum intensity is seen to have a good correlation with the IRAS 100${\mu}m$ emission data. It is also seen that the scattered spectrum is softer than the original one emitted by the central star, which is attributed to the increase in the dust-scattering albedo with wavelength. We have developed a Monte Carlo code that simulates dust scattering of light including multiple encounters. The code is applied to the present Spica halo region to obtain the scattering properties such as the albedo and the phase function asymmetry factor.

The medical informatics for clustering Sasang types with collected clinical data is important for the personalized medicine, but it has not been thoroughly studied yet. The purpose of this study was to examine the usefulness of neural network data mining algorithm for traditional Korean medicine. We used Kohonen neural network, the Self-Organizing Map (SOM), for the analysis of biomedical information following data pre-processing and calculated the validity index as percentage correctly predicted and type-specific sensitivity. We can extract 12 data fields from 30 after data pre-processing with correlation analysis and latent functional relationship analysis. The profile of Myers-Briggs Type Inidcator and Bio-Impedance Analysis data which are clustered with SOM was similar to that of original measurements. The percentage correctly predicted was 56%, and sensitivity for So-Yang, Tae-Eum and So-Eum type were 56%, 48%, and 61%, respectively. This study showed that the neural network algorithm for clustering Sasang types based on clinical data is useful for the sasang type diagnostic test itself. We discussed the importance of data pre-processing and clustering algorithm for the validity of medical devices in traditional Korean medicine.

Block based fast motion estimation algorithm use the fixed search pattern to reduce the search point, and are based on the assumption that the error in the mean absolute error space monotonically decreases to the global minimum. Therefore, in case of many local minima in a search region we are likely to find local minima instead of the global minimum and highly rely on the initial search points. This situation is evident in the motion boundary. In this paper we define the candidate regions within the search region using the motion information of the neighbor blocks and we propose the multiple local search method (MLSM) which search for the solution throughout the candidate regions to reduce the possibilities of isolation to the local minima. In the MLSM we mark the candidate region in the search point map and we avoid to search the candidate regions already visited to reduce the calculation. In the simulation results the proposed method shows more excellent results than that of other gradient based method especially in the search of motion boundary. Especially, in PSNR the proposed method obtains similar estimate accuracy with the significant reduction of search points to that of full search.

Stereo vision system is useful method for inferring 3D depth information from two or more images. So it has been the focus of attention in this field for a long time. Stereo matching is the process of finding correspondence points in two or more images. A central problem in a stereo matching is that it is difficult to satisfy both the computation time problem and accuracy at the same time. To resolve this problem, we proposed a new stereo matching technique using weighted cost aggregation. To begin with, we extract the weight in given stereo images based on features. We compute the costs of the pixels in a given window using correlation of weighted color and brightness information. Then, we match pixels in a given window between the reference and target images of a stereo pair. To demonstrate the effectiveness of the algorithm, we provide experimental data from several synthetic and real scenes. The experimental results show the improved accuracy of the proposed method.

This study gives information for the enterprise to map out a positive marketing strategy and facilitate a new product development by researching and analyzing the specific character of the high income woman-brackets. In order to do that, based upon the materials of the National Statistical office, I made a selection of the high income brackets, subdividing their scholastic ability into four serfs. The subject of the study was the women from twenties to sixties among customers of a high class dress shop in Taejeon. I made up 600 questionnaires for them. using 441 of these for the statistical analysis and making available the correlation analysis, the primary factor analysis, and $X^2$-test. This study is classified into the type of women customers purchasing clothes who are the high-income brackets. Intended to study a special quality of purchasing according to income. 1. The purchasing manner of the high-income brackets customers is exposed the luxurious vain purchasing manner, the rational reasonable manner, and idiosyncrasy individual manner in order 1) The consumer of the high-income brackets in general prefer to a high class clothes. In the contrast, low-income brackets prefer to rational reasonable consumption in spending money on clothes. 2) The favorite consumption manner of the high income brackets is the luxurious vain purchasing manner. This consumption values the more symbolic means the things show than owing the goods. 2. The higher standard of education and younger tends to be high in the luxurious, vain purchasing. 3. The unreasonable purchasing show an high irrelation at the impulse buying arid self-satisfaction. 4. Self-satisfaction shows the highest interrelation than any other variations in the concern of clothes. 5. The symbolic images which exerts an influence upon purchasing manner are the notable elements of constituting as growing older. 6. The high standard of education prefers to the rational resonable purchasing, but on the other hand shows a high rate at the unreasonable individual purchasing manner.
