  • As a growing number of individuals are exposed to surveillance cameras, the need to prevent captured videos from being used inappropriately has increased. Privacy-related information can be protected through video encryption during transmission or storage, and several algorithms have been proposed for such purposes. However, the simple way of evaluating the security by counting the number of brute-force trials is not proper for measuring the security of video encryption algorithms, considering that attackers can devise specially crafted attacks for specific purposes by exploiting the characteristics of the target video codec. In this paper, we introduce a new attack for recovering contour information from encrypted H.264 video. The attack can thus be used to extract face outlines for the purpose of personal identification. We analyze the security of previous video encryption schemes against the proposed attack and show that the security of these schemes is lower than expected in terms of privacy protection. To enhance security, an advanced block shuffling method is proposed, an analysis of which shows that it is more secure than the previous method and can be an improvement against the proposed attack.

  • In this study, the university conducted an inspection of the classes of students in the school-grain classes of liberal arts classes and conducted a thorough classification. Each of the students' characteristics is divided into those who have experienced programming in elementary and secondary schools. As a result, classes were classified and followed by Scratch programming classes. The difference between pre-scan and post-test is the identification of the centre of gravity and the different methods of teaching the teaching methods accordingly. Through this study, we learned how to understand and appreciate the difficulties we face while studying computing.

  • In this article, I have analyzed the signification of the death of Don Quijote from the oriental religious and philosophical point of view, comparing with the novels of Kim, DongRi. We are able to read Cervantes' hope for his absolute ideal to be lasting forever via the death of Don Quijote, in the base of a strong will named of Gukyeong's life. In the same time, we can also discovery death as lasting of life in the basis of buddhist idea and death as the unification with nature via the meeting between the living and the dead in the Montesinos Cave. Montesinos Cave symbolizes a unclassified and chaotic space, which the Shamanist can meet the dead with a extatic ceremony and both supernatural life and daily life coexist. Therefore, the symbolic death of Don Quijote in Montesinos Cave is abe to be explained by approaching to absolute freedom named of Hatal, in other words, voluntary and conscious death to escape from the yugo of being. Considering the fact that Kim, Dongri emphasized on the unification of sky, earth and human being, keeping a racial identification in the face of the stream of occidental materialism in the time of Japanese conquest, we can look for the similarity with Cervantes' ideal. Contrary to the religious dogmatic ideal, Cervantes treated to recover the human nature and vitality, transcending the occidental rationalism and religious ideology in the time of Counter-reformation.

  • Purpose: This study was done to develop and test a scale to measure the homeboundness for low-income aged who live in the community. Methods: This was nursing methodology research. Homeboundness Scale development process was composed of construct identification based on concept analysis using the Hybrid model, 35 initial items. This number was reduced to 31 items through face validity tests by 7 experts. The preliminary Homeboundness Scale for low-income aged was administered to 240 aged who registered and received visiting health care service in the community health center located in S city. Data were analyzed using item analysis, factor analysis, Pearson correlation coefficients, and Cronbach's alpha. Results: Twenty-two items were selected for the final scale. Three factors evolved from the factor analysis, which explained 66.0% of the total variance. The internal consistency, Cronbach's alpha, was .945 and reliability of the subscales ranged from .890 to .934. Conclusion: Homeboundness Scale demonstrated acceptable validity and reliability. It can be used to assess the Homeboundness of the low-income aged in practice and research.

  • The design of safe and economical structures depends on the reliable live load from load survey. Live load surveys are traditionally conducted by randomly selecting rooms and weighing each item on-site, a method that has problems of low efficiency, high cost, and long cycle time. This paper proposes a deep learning-based method combined with Internet big data to perform live load surveys. The proposed survey method utilizes multi-source heterogeneous data, such as images, voice, and product identification, to obtain the live load without weighing each item through object detection, web crawler, and speech recognition. The indoor objects and face detection models are first developed based on fine-tuning the YOLOv3 algorithm to detect target objects and obtain the number of people in a room, respectively. Each detection model is evaluated using the independent testing set. Then web crawler frameworks with keyword and image retrieval are established to extract the weight information of detected objects from Internet big data. The live load in a room is derived by combining the weight and number of items and people. To verify the feasibility of the proposed survey method, a live load survey is carried out for a meeting room. The results show that, compared with the traditional method of sampling and weighing, the proposed method could perform efficient and convenient live load surveys and represents a new load research paradigm.

  • Purpose: Compared to cities, rural areas are in a medical blind spot and face difficulties in accessing medical services due to inconvenient transportation facilities, lack of medical facilities, and the heavy burden of medical expenses. This study was carried out to identify the problems relating to the musculoskeletal system of the elderly in rural and fishing villages, which are medically vulnerable areas, and sought to present a regionally differentiated healthcare model. Methods: The study was conducted in 80 elderly people in two rural villages and two fishing villages after seeking inputs regarding medically vulnerable groups in the Gyeongnam Province. Postural balance and muscle flexibility were assessed and postural evaluation was conducted to identify musculoskeletal problems and gait stability. Strength and range of motion for each body segment were assessed for evaluating functional motion. Results: The elderly in both rural areas showed forward head posture characteristics. The strength level of the elderly in both rural areas was higher than the average, but their flexibility and balance ability were lower than the average. Conclusion: The musculoskeletal problems of the elderly in rural and fishing villages in this study did not show regional characteristics according to the area of residence. However, overall flexibility and balance ability appeared to be reduced. Therefore, a new management model connecting the region and the university is necessary in preparation for the coming era of community care.

  • Despite several studies focusing on the facial arteries variable courses, the findings have significantly differed. The divergent findings have made it increasingly challenging to establish consistent correlations. Thus, as a vital artery, the facial artery is prone to numerous variations, which makes the identification of the variations vital to clinical practice, particularly for the orofacial and rhinoplastic surgery, and the increasingly selective chemotherapy procedures. The present research uses angiography images for analysis in studying the bilateral facial artery variations noted in patients undergoing carotid angiography for the evaluation of congenital anomalies, cerebral vascular malformations, and intra-arterial procedures. Conventional angiography was used, as it is a vital assessment tool that helps in the assessment of variations in the facial arteries and is suitable in evaluating smaller vascular anatomy, due to the perfect spatial resolution and portrayal of vascular anatomy. Thus, rather than normal ending of the facial artery as an angular artery, the study disclosed that in certain instances, the artery termination took the form of a superior labial artery with a small lateral nasal artery branch located closer to the midline compared to the normal cases. Also, the study has disclosed a conspicuous pre-masseteric branch with small branches originating from the infraorbital artery and providing potential compensation for the facial artery's shortness. Regardless of the infrequency of such variations, it is vital that they are considered during the performance of any facial surgical procedure.

  • Labor attendance management has traditionally been carried out by writing a table for checking an attendance of labor, which requires a lot of time and effort. As electronic devices with additions such as barcodes, Quick Response codes, and Radio Frequency Identification(RFID) have been developed, however, automated labor attendance management systems have appeared. Recently, various types of labor recognition devices converged with biometrics (fingerprint, vein, face recognition, etc.) have been released. However, although these devices can be used to check attendance automatically, there is insufficient guidance when it comes to selecting the appropriate labor attendance management system for construction sites. Therefore, this study proposed a decision framework to determine which labor attendance management system would be suitable for a construction site and to select the labor recognition device. This study investigated different labor recognition devices, focusing on how they worked, and tested the performance of devices and their usability for construction labor attendance management. The test results showed that RFID is most suitable when verifying the attendance of many laborers over a short period of time. The devices for hand vein and fingerprint recognition did not function when there was a foreign material such as cement or paint on the laborer's hand, except for a deformed finger. Reflecting these test results, this study suggested a framework for selecting a labor attendance system and recognition device; this is expected to contribute to the development of more efficient labor management systems.

  • Due to the development of IT technology and the spread of infectious diseases, online non-face-to-face services are rapidly expanding. In particular, the information delivery process is also changing from the past postal branch-based to an information delivery system using mobile devices. This change is due to the change from the information delivery using the telephone line to the information delivery system using the Internet. Mobile notification service is a service that sends electronic notices to mobile devices held by users to deliver information and is validated for delivery, which has the advantage of reducing the benefits of unnecessary mail production, exposure to personal information, and misdelivery. However, user identification information must be provided to operators that provide mobile electronic notification services. In this paper, the current state of use of the mobile electronic notice service, which has been in effect since 2019, is investigated and analyzed, and the current mobile electronic notice service is to be safely provided and to take appropriate protection measures for personal information. In providing the mobile electronic notification service to users, it is possible to identify the service standards required by the sending agency, and based on this, prepare the technical standards for the mobile electronic notification service that the sending agency must comply with in advance and use it for the mobile electronic notification service.

  • This study aimed to discuss mental health services for children and adolescents that are being implemented as initiatives of the Korean government and to review the functions and roles of these projects during the COVID-19 pandemic. Three government departments are in charge of providing mental health services for children and adolescents: Ministry of Education, Ministry of Gender Equality and Family, and Ministry of Health and Welfare. The Ministry of Education has implemented several policies to facilitate the early detection of mental health issues among school students (from preventive interventions to selective interventions for high-risk students). The Ministry of Gender Equality and Family additionally serves out-of-school children and adolescents by facilitating early identification of adolescents in crises and providing temporary protection or emergency assistance (as required) through the Community Youth Safety-Net Project. Furthermore, the Ministry of Health and Welfare operates relevant mental health agencies for individuals of all ages including children and adolescents. Any high-risk students who have been screened through the projects of the Ministry of Education are supported through referrals to the following institutions for appropriate treatment of their symptoms: specialized hospitals, the Youth Counseling and Welfare Center operated by the Ministry of Gender Equality and Family, the National Youth Healing Center, the Mental Health Welfare Center operated by the Ministry of Health and Welfare, the Suicide Prevention Center, and the Child Welfare Center. To assist students who are facing any psychological difficulties because of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Ministry of Education has established a psychiatric support group for providing emergency mental health care; furthermore, schools are promoting psychological surveillance (e.g., provision of non-face-to-face counseling services that are centered around the Wee Center). The Ministry of Education, Ministry of Gender Equality and Family, and Ministry of Health and Welfare have provided varied mental health support services in order to address the challenges faced by children and adolescents during the pandemic. Nevertheless, the mental health services operated by each ministry do show some limitations because their service provision system is insufficiently collaborative. The present study discussed the positive effects of each initiative as well as its limitations; furthermore, it suggested improvements for facilitating the healthy development of children and adolescents' mental health.
