In this paper, we conducted cross-cultural studies on digital images, which is an important element of the user interface. We brought in the schema theory to explain the cross-cultural difference in expressing and perceiving digital images. Participant-ethnography, in-depth interview, and card sorting were conducted to explore how expression and perception of images are influenced by schemas. Our results of qualitative studies indicate that there are differences in schemas between cultures depending on the topic of expression and perception. With these results, we suggest globalization and localization strategies for websites.

Purpose : To develop a new subtraction program for registering digital periapical images based on the correspondence of anatomic structures. Materials and Methods: The digital periapical images were obtained by Digora system with Rinn XCP equipment after translation of 1-16 mm, and rotation of 2-20° at the premolar and molar areas of the human dried mandible. The new subtraction program, NIH Image program and Emago/Advanced program were compared by the peak-signal-to noise ratio (PSNR). Results : The new subtraction program was superior to NIH Images program and Emagol Advanced program up to 16 mm translation and horizontal angulation up to 4°. Conclusion: The new subtraction program can be used for subtracting digital periapical images.

The purpose of this study was to aid in the use of the digital images by edge-detect interpolation for direct digital periapical images using edge-detect interpolation. This study was performed by image processing of 20 digital periapical images; pixel replication, linear non-interpolation, linear interpolation. and edge-sensitive interpolation. The obtained results were as follows : 1. Pixel replication showed blocking artifact and serious image distortion. 2. Linear interpolation showed smoothing effect on the edge. 3. Edge-sensitive interpolation overcame the smoothing effect on the edge and showed better image.

Purpose : In a PACS(Picture Archiving Communications System) environment, which is a very important component in a digital medical environment, the compression of digital medical images is a necessary and effective feature. In a current system where JPEG is applied to the compression of medical images, this study is to examine effectiveness and suitability when the JPEG2000, a more advanced compression algorithm for still images, is applied to the compression of medical images. In this thesis, we attempt to address the compressibility for effective clinical usage when compressing medical images, applying the objectivization of clinical evaluation as a function of compressibility. In the experiment al method, the compression was applied at a fixed rate using JPEG2000, and the n the result was compared with compressed images by JPEG. Method : For the performance evaluation, we choose SNR(Signal to Noise Ratio) measurement of an objective evaluation of definition and analyze a subjective evaluation by the ROC(Receiver Operating Characteristic) method. The results of the experiment showed that in the case of JPEG2000 there is hardly any distortion of images, even at high compression ratio(100:1), while regarding noise, the SNR remains around about 40dB, which is also relatively high. Before reading by reference to evaluative materials concerning objective compressed images, it is impossible to apply high compression to images : however, after reading, this can be applied to images that have already existed for some time.

철학과 사상, 서사와 효과, 문화와 예술 영역으로 양분되어 논의되었던 포스트모더니즘의 담론은 디지털 테크놀로지의 발전으로 인하여 그 영역이 모호해졌다. 디지털 테크놀로지의 발전은 문화예술전반에 걸쳐 매체예술을 비롯하여 미학적 접근에 대하여도 변화를 가져왔다. 리얼리즘을 중심으로 디지털 이미지에 대한 해석은 기존의 이미지의 재현논리의 중심에서 디지털 기술이 만들어내는 이미지에 대한 특징 분석 및 해석과 함께 디지털 이미지들을 어떻게 수용해야하는가의 문제로 변화하고 있다. 하이퍼 리얼리티를 강조하는 디지털 이미지는 기존의 영화의 미학적 접근방식이 아닌 쇼트 단위로의 접근이 이루어져야 한다. 디지털 이미지는 프레임 단위 안에서 이미지의 현실 재현성을 강조하고 있으므로 기존의 총체적인 내러티브상의 영화 이미지의 미학적 특성에 대한 접근과는 다르게 이루어져야한다. CGI가 만들어내는 디지털 이미지는 프레임단위에서 재현되는 핍진성의 척도와 시뮬레이션, 극사실주의 개념으로써 해석이 이루어져야 하며 특히 환영성이 강조되는 영화에서는 내러티브상의 사실주의적 접근보다는 회화적 차원에서의 현실 재현적 차원으로의 미학적 접근이 이루어져야 한다.

KOMPSAT-2 is the seventh high-resolution satellite in the world that provides both 1m panchromatic images and 4m multispectral images of the GSD. It is expected to be used across many different fields including digital mapping, territorial and environmental monitoring. However, due to the complexity and security concern involved with the use of the MSC, the use of KOMPSAT-2 images are limited in terms of geometric data, such as satellite orbits and detailed mapping information. This study aims to generate the DEM and orthoimage by using the stereo images of KOMPSAT-2 and to explore the applicability of geo-spatial information with KOMPSAT-2. In order to ensure generation of DEMs of optimal accuracy, the RPCs data and a suitable number of GCPs were used. The accuracy of DEM generated in this research compared with DEM generated from 1:5,000 digital map. The mean differences between horizontal position of the orthoimage and the digital map data are found to be ${\pm}$3.1m, which is in the range of ${\pm}$3.5m, within the permitted limit of a 1:5,000 digital map. The results suggest that DEM can be adequately used to produce digital maps under 1:5,000 scale.

This study aim to suggest how alter the korean traditional image design for umbrellas by sublimation transfer digital textile printing. Umbrellas are highly depend on design and made from polyester fiber which is proper item to utilize sublimation transfer digital textile printing. Sublimation transfer digital textile printing system can use computer system to create the delicate high dense images and one full layout through the hole umbrella. It can create distinctive style of design compare with former screen printing umbrella design. As a result of this study, Korean traditional images were adopted and recreated for umbrellas as the modern practical item. 7 of umbrella designs were developed and sample umbrellas could be produced in short period comparing with screen printing process. Through this study, as green printing process, sublimation transfer digital textile printing will be more applied to manufacture high quality textile products along with design development, thus it is expected as an alternative plan to leads growth of umbrella industries.

디지털애니메이션은 기본적으로 애니메이션 장르만이 갖는 캐릭터성과 그리고 실사적 영상의 재현구조를 가능하게 하는 기술적 특징을 동시에 가지고 있다. 하지만 그럼에도 불구하고 아직까지 디지털애니메이션으로 제작되어진 극사실주의적 작품들은 관객에게 낯선 존재로 인식되어지고 있다. 최첨단 기술과 인력 그리고 자본으로 탄생된 극사실주의 할리우드 디지털애니메이션에 대한 관객들의 이러한 차가운 반응은 바로 기술적 문제에서라기보다는 미학적 측면에서의 접근법에 그 문제가 존재해 있기 때문이다, 그러므로 본 연구는 디지털애니메이션의 장치적 특성을 기존의 실사영화와의 비교를 통해 기술과 미학에 대한 새로운 접근방법을 제시하고 또한 새로운 리얼리즘으로서 디지털애니메이션의 고유성을 찾아보고자 한다.

The dimensions of the human body vary by age, sex, and race. The internal structure and outer dimensions of a body exposed to an electromagnetic field is important for accurate dosimetry. The average physical size of Korean adult males between the ages 18 to 24 was investigated, and a male volunteer was selected whose physical condition is within the physical standards, ${\pm}5%$. Magnetic resonance images and partially computerized tomography images of the volunteer were acquired. The intervals between the transverse images were 1 mm for the head and 3 mm for the rest of the body. About 30 different tissues were manually classified by an anatomist on the raw images, and the segmented images were implemented in the form of a text file appropriate for numerical formulation.

Topology optimization is widely accepted as a conceptual design tool for the product design. Since the resulted layout of the topology optimization is a kind of digital images represented by the density distribution, the seamless process is required to transform digital images to the CAD model for the practical use. In this paper, the general process to construct a CAD model is developed to apply for topology images based on elements. The node density and the morphology technique are adopted to extract boundary contour of the shape and remove the noise of images through erosion and dilation operation. The proposed method automatically generates point data sets of the geometric model. The process is integrated with Pro/Engineer, so that the engineer in practice can directly handle with curves or surfaces form digital images.
