Iris recognition is a biometric technology which can identify a person using the iris pattern. It is important for the iris recognition system to extract the feature which is invariant to changes in iris patterns. Those changes can be occurred by the influence of lights, changes in the size of the pupil, and head tilting. In this paper, we propose a novel method based on Zernike Moment which is robust to rotations of iris patterns. we utilized a selection of Zernike moments for the fast and effective recognition by selecting global optimum moments and local optimum moments for optimal matching of each iris class. The proposed method enables high-speed feature extraction and feature comparison because it requires no additional processing to obtain the rotation invariance, and shows comparable performance to the well-known previous methods.

Pramlintide, a synthetic analogue of human hormone amylin, is the first of a new class of amylinomimetic compounds. Present study was undertaken to compile and analyze the clinical trials of pramlintide, and thereby to facilitate the design of the bridging study for the earlier introduction of the drug, which might be needed by diabetes patients in Korea. Sixty-two articles from Pubmed and MEDLINE search were used to analyze the trials of pramlintide along with prescribing information and New Drug Application packet obtained form the manufacturer. The efficacy of the new drug was attributed to three mechanisms: delay of gastric emptying time, inhibition of post-prandial glucagon secretion, and reduction of food intake by enhanced satiety. Clinical trials consistently identified the effectiveness of the drug for the treatment of type 1and type 2 diabetes who have failed to achieve glycemic control despite optimal therapy with insulin. However, the six pivotal Phase III clinical trials were peformed with mostly caucasian and some black and hispanic people. None of the trials documented the proportion of either Asian or Korean participants. Since Korean diabetes patients show different epidemiology and characteristics in their disease state, it appears that the bridging study of pramlintide should be designed in the level of full scale Phase III clinical trial along with pharmacokinetic and pbarmacodynamic studies.

This study is to verify the effectiveness of initial planning verification using paper prototyping while methodologies are being developed to verify the direction of game planning in a short time at low cost since it is having a hard time to verify the direction and fun of the game by taking a lot of capital and time in the initial planning process as the game development becomes larger. It conducted paper prototyping production for about 40 students who are learning game planning for a semester, and trained them on how to motivate using core mechanical diagrams, scrums, and basic psychological needs that can effectively materialize the ideas of their early game planning. Through this curriculum, board games were completed with eleven paper prototyping, and it was confirmed that students who participated in the class were meaningful in verifying fun and securing gameability through cross-play.

This study is a research study to determine the effect of online lecture substitution for subjects due to COVID-19 on self-directed learning ability, academic achievement, and online learning satisfaction of nursing students. From September to October 2020, the final 113 nursing students of data recovered as enrolled in the Department of Nursing at a university located in G City were analyzed. The data collected were analyzed by performing descriptive statistics and hierarchical regression analysis using the SPSS 21.0 program. The study results are summarized as follows. The average score of self-directed learning was 3.32±0.39, academic achievement 3.32±0.75, and learning satisfaction was 3.31±0.78. Factors affecting online learning satisfaction were found to be preferred learning methods and academic achievement. Based on the results of this study, it is necessary to design instruction and operate classes to improve online learning satisfaction by evaluating the learner's learning method in advance when running nursing school subjects as online lectures for nursing students.

In this paper, we describe the implementation methods and algorithms for the various technologies and devices required for the construction of the engagement HILS(Hardware In the Loop Simulation) in the limited space to simulate the high-speed maneuvering encounter situation of the weapon system in 3-dimensional real world space. Through this research, we have been able to suggest ways to analyze the major design elements of future electronic warfare equipment through experiments simulating actual engagements between various high-speed maneuvering weapons systems and electronic warfare devices in the future battlefield. It was confirmed that the M&S technology could be used to eliminate technical risks, reduce development cost, and shorten development time in the future real system development. The results of this study can be a great assist not only for the field of electronic warfare system research and development, but also for the research & implementation on HILS of various engaging class weapons systems.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the enhancing creative competency and changes in academic challenge for the pre-service teachers. For this purpose, 94 pre-service teachers participated in project learning through the preparation of the convergence instruction and the class demonstration during one semester. The pre and post questionnaire survey was conducted the measurement of creative leader competence and K-NSSE for academic challenge. Analysis of data was performed using the IBM SPSS 18.0 program for the corresponding sample t test. The creative competency included 'higher mental thinking', 'problem solving', 'curiosity', 'sensitivity' 'task commitment', 'the pursuit of social value', and 'co-operations and considerations'. This results was significant(p< .05). Academic challenge, high-order learning domain and learning strategies domain were significant(p< .05). Based on this, in order to generalize the convergence education and convergence lesson, it is necessary to design various convergence lessons and practice study to make a plan and practice it. In addition, the implications for the necessity of correcting and supplementing the effects after repeated convergence lessons were discussed.

In this paper, an equivalent circuit reflecting the internal loss of the LLC resonant half bridge converter was proposed and a steady state characteristic equation including the loss factors was derived. Using the results, the frequency characteristics of I/O voltage gain and input impedance were compared with the lossless model In order to verify the proposed model and the derived equation, the main components of the 1kW class LLC resonant half bridge converter were selected under the same conditions and the steady state characteristics such as voltage gain and input impedance were compared. In particular, to compare more closely the steady state error of the two models, we observed the change in switching frequency with respect to the load current, which is considered to be the most important in the actual circuit design stage. As a result, it is confirmed that the error of the operating frequency is significantly improved from the proposed model and the analysis result.

The one of goals of the 2015 revised national curriculum is the successful application of achievement standards-based assessment, which assesses both the results and process of learning, ensuring that all students have achieved the educational objectives, to schools. Therefore, an achievement standards and evaluation support system is required to manage a whole process of teaching and learning based on achievement standards and provide the personalized assessment feedback to students to improve their achievement levels. In this paper, we perform a design of integrated data model and system of teaching plan, subject content, assessment plan, assessment result, and feedback data is required based on an achievement standards repository. In addition, we create a student's dashboard webpage, which representing different types of achievement of the student, and perform the comparative analysis of data models to evaluate the quality of the proposed model.

This paper presents the high efficiency and high power-factor power supply for LED lighting equipment. The proposed power supply is the single-stage power structure consisted of the full-bridge diode rectifier and flyback converter, and thus the power-factor correction and output voltage regulation are performed simultaneously using only one controller IC and one power semiconductor switch. Furthermore, the proposed power supply reduces the voltage stress and switching loss of main switch using the regenerative snubber, and it improves the system efficiency using the synchronous rectifier. The applied synchronous rectifier is the new voltage-driven type and its operation and construction are simple. In this paper, the operation principle of proposed power supply is explained through the operation analyses of its power-factor correction and main power conversion parts and the operation of synchronous rectifier is described, briefly. Also, a design example of the power circuit of 40W-class prototype is shown and the operation characteristics of proposed power supply are validated through the experimental results of the implemented prototype by the designed circuit parameter.

Draught and trim conditions are highly related to the loading condition of a vessel and are important factors in predicting ship manoeuverability. This paper estimates hydrodynamic coefficients from sea trial measurements with three different trim and draught conditions. A mathematical optimization method for system identification was applied to estimate the forces and moment acting on the hull. Also, fast time simulation software based on the Rheinmetall Defense model was applied to the whole estimation process, and a 4,500 Twenty-foot Equivalent Unit (TEU) class container carrier was chosen to collect sets of measurement data. Simulation results using both optimized coefficients and newly-calculated coefficients for validation agreed well with benchmark data. The results show mathematical optimization using sea measurement data enables hydrodynamic coefficients to be estimated more simply.
