Modern society has been transformed into a digital emotional society that could gradually be seen, felt, and enjoyed by the diversification of personal consumption desires due to digital development. Accordingly, in fashion, an original fashion sense that arose out of classical and conventional thinking has become important and there is an increasing interest in patchwork quilts. The purpose of this study lies in contributing to the development and utilization of creative and emotional fashion design by expanding the mental changes that have emerged in modern society to creative areas after analyzing the classification and expression characteristics of the type cases of patchwork quilt techniques expressed in modern fashion. In addition, it is meaningful to examine how the expressive characteristics of patchwork quilts are expressed in the digital emotion era. This study paralleled literature research and empirical case studies. In the scope and method of research, the theatrical research was centered on literature data. For visual data, website photos were collected, limited to women's clothing among the collections from Fall & Winter 2014 to Spring & Summer 2017. After drawing the expression types of patchwork quilts extracted from the previous research based on the design formative factors, the fashion-related expert group analyzed the expressive characteristics of 501 photographs in which the patchwork quilt of the designer clothing collection were reflected. As a result of analysis, the expressive types appeared in the order of diversification of techniques and materials, extended dual images, new formative composition, and reconstruction of traditional patchwork. In this study, the expressive characteristics of patchwork quilts expressed in contemporary fashion are analyzed and drawn as variability, compromise, convergence, and playfulness. Through this, it is hoped that this study can be used variously in the development of fashion design by expanding the interpretation of costume culture.

For content-based audio retrieval which is one of main functions in audio service, the techniques for extracting fingerprints from the audio source, storing and indexing them in a database are widely used. However, if the fingerprints of new audio sources are continually inserted into the database, there is a problem that space efficiency as well as audio retrieval performance are gradually deteriorated. Therefore, there is a need for techniques to support efficient expansion of audio database without periodic reorganization of the database that would increase the system operation cost. In this paper, we design a content-based audio retrieval system that solves this problem by using MapReduce and NoSQL database in a cluster computing environment based on the Shazam's fingerprinting algorithm, and evaluate its performance through a detailed set of experiments using real world audio data.

Recently, The wide range of the Internet applications and the related technology developments enabled the ease use of the digital multimedia contents (fixed images, movies, digital audios). However, due to the replay ability which the contents may be easily duplicated and not only the duplicates are capable of providing the same original quality. There are mainly the encipher techniques and the watermarking techniques which are studied and used as solutions for the above problem in order to protect the license holders' rights. To the protection of the IP(Intellectual Property) rights of the owner, digital watermarking is the technique that authenticates the legal copyrighter. This paper proposed the watermarking algorithms to watermark the 256 gray logo image and the color image by applying the wavelet transformation to the color stand-still images. The proposed algorithms conducted the watermark insertion at the LH frequency region among the wavelet transformation regions (LL, LH, HL, HH). The interleaving algorithms which applied in data communication was applied to the watermark. the amount of watermark increased which consequently caused the PSNR to decrease but this might provide the perseverance against the external attacks such as extraction, filtering, and crop.

In mapping a texture image into a 3D mesh model for photo-realistic graphic applications, the compression of texture image is as important as geometry of 3D mesh. Typically, the size of the (compressed) texture image of 3D model is comparable to that of the (compressed) 3D mesh geometry. Most 3D model compression techniques are to compress the 3D mesh geometry, rather than to compress the texture image. Well-known image compression standards (i.e., JPEG) have been extensively used for texture image compression. However, such techniques are not so efficient when it comes to compress an image with texture patches, since the patches are little correlated. In this paper, we proposed a preprocessing method to substantially improve the compression efficiency of texture compression. From the experimental results, the proposed method was shown to be efficient in compression with a bit-saving from 23% to 45%.

The illegal copying and redistribution of digitally-stored information is a crucial problem to distributors who electronically sell digital data. Fingerprinting scheme is a techniques which supports copyright protection to track redistributors of electronic information using cryptographic techniques. Anonymous fingerprinting schemes, differ from symmetric fingerprinting, prevent the merchant from framing a buyer by making the fingerprinted version known to the buyer only. And the scheme, differ from asymmetric fingerprinting, allows the buyer to purchase goods without revealing her identity to the merchant. In this paper, a new anonymous fingerprinting scheme based on secret sharing is introduced. The merchant finds a sold version that has been distributed, and then he is able to retrieve a buyer's identity and take her to court. And Schnorr's digital signature prevents the buyer from denying the fact he redistributed. The buyer's anonymity relies on the security of discrete logarithm and secure two-party computations.

This research aimed (1) to study and analyze the ability of current information retrieval (IR) systems based on views of information behavior (IB), and (2) to propose a conceptual framework for an IB model based on the collaboration between the system and user, with the intent of developing an IR system that can apply intelligent techniques to enhance system efficiency. The methods in this study consisted of (1) document analysis which included studying the characteristics and efficiencies of the current IR systems and studying the IB models in the digital environment, and (2) implementation of the Delphi technique through an indepth interview method with experts. The research results were presented in three main parts. First, the IB model was categorized into eight stages, different from traditional IB, in the digital environment, which can correspond to all behaviors and be applied to with an IR system. Second, insufficient functions and log file storage hinder the system from effectively understanding and accommodating user behavior in the digital environment. Last, the proposed conceptual framework illustrated that there are stages that can add intelligent techniques to the IR system based on the collaboration perspective between the user and system to boost the users' cognitive ability and make the IR system more user-friendly. Importantly, the conceptual framework for the IB model based on the collaboration perspective between the user and system for IR assisted the ability of information systems to learn, recognize, and comprehend human IB according to individual characteristics, leading to enhancement of interaction between the system and users.

The mobile devices and cloud computing technology introduced new content services such as N-Screen service. The DRM techniques have been developed to support interoperability and multi-platform for new environment of content service. Nevertheless, it is still inconvenient for the consumers to purchase a new DRM-supported device or to migrate some purchased contents into new device due to the change of the subscription of service. Therefore, in this paper, cloud-based DRM model which is referred as DRMaaS (DRM-as-a-Service) model, is proposed to allow the consumer to freely use and move some DRM-protected contents in various smart devices regardless of subscription of service.

Recently, techniques involving head-mounted displays (HMDs) have attracted much attention from academia and industry owing to the increased demand for virtual reality and augmented reality applications. Because HMDs are positioned near to users' eyes, it is important to solve the accommodation-vergence conflict problem to prevent dizziness. Therefore, holography is considered ideal for implementing HMDs. However, within the Nyquist region, the accommodation effect is limited by the space-bandwidth-product of the signal, which is determined by the sampling number of spatial light modulators. In addition, information about the angular spectrum is duplicated over the Fourier domain, and it is necessary to filter out the redundancy. The size of the exit-pupil of the HMD is limited by the Nyquist sampling theory. We newly propose a holographic HMD with an expanded exit-pupil over the Nyquist region by using the time-multiplexing method, and the accommodation effect is enhanced. We realize time-multiplexing by synchronizing a high-speed digital micromirror device and a liquid-crystal shutter array. We also demonstrate the accommodation effect experimentally.

In XRF systems, various techniques have been developed for the synthesis of pulse shapes using digital methods instead of traditional analog methods. Trapezoidal pulse shaping algorithms can be used for digital multi-channel pulse height analysis in X-ray spectrometer systems. In this paper, an efficient trapezoidal filter architecture is presented. In addition, we present a hardware-efficient peak value detection algorithm. By the proposed algorithm, peak value detection error is decreased by half compared with the conventional algorithm. The proposed Digital Pulse Processing(DPP) algorithm is designed using Verilog HDL and implemented using an FPGA on a test board. It is demonstrated that the implemented DPP board works successfully in practical XRF systems.
