  • As the Privacy Act is in force in Korea, the subject of protection responsibility is increased, and continuous efforts are made to protect privacy in overseas countries, as can be seen by standard drafts related to privacy protection. However, the reality is that a formal privacy manual or guidelines are insufficient to help cope with the rapid changes and privacy leak caused by TGIF(Twitter-Google-iPhone-Facebook) these days, and practical effects cannot be expected, even though measures are taken. This paper propose a standard format for satisfying the ISO/IEC 29101 "Privacy Reference Architecture" and shows an implementation example for equipping with forensic readiness capturing indications of the incident rapidly and coming up with an effective counter measure when privacy information is disclosed.

  • In this paper, we propose a method to manage production system easily for operators when either equipments or products are changed. And we explain the scheduling AI tool which realizes the proposal method. The tool's knowledge expression consists of models, rules, mathematical expression and fuzzy logic. The model expresses the relations between products and manufacture, and properties of products. The models are separated into three type, equipment model, operation model, and product model. These models are classified by applicable fields as the assembly process or continuous plant process, The model expression of each type is based on object oriented paradigm. We report systems utilizing our approach.

  • The intelligent trajectory control method that controls moving direction and average velocity for a prosthetic arm is proposed by pattern recognition and force estimations using EMG signals. Also, we propose the real time trajectory planning method which generates continuous accelleration paths using 3 stage linear filters to minimize the impact to human body induced by arm motions and to reduce the muscle fatigue. We use combination of MLP and fuzzy filter for pattern recognition to estimate the direction of a muscle and Hogan's method for the force estimation. EMG signals are acquired by using a amputation simulator and 2 dimensional joystick motion. The simulation results of proposed prosthetic arm control system using the EMG signals show that the arm is effectively followed the desired trajectory depended on estimated force and direction of muscle movements.

  • This paper takes issue with the idea of language as a 'serial-time structure' as opposed to the 'real-time event' of speech, an idea entrenched in Chomskyan model of linguistic theory. The discussion centers around the leitmotif question: Is language constructed entirely from a finite set of apriori discrete symbol types, as the 'competence vs performance' dichotomy implies\ulcorner A set of linguistic patterns examined in this study, largely with regard to phonological considerations, points to the evidence to the contrary. That is, while the patterns may be said to be linguistically distinct, they are not discretely, different, i.e. not different enough to be reliably differentiated. It is demonstrated that much of current research in phonology, including the most recent Optimality Theory, is misdirected in that it falsely presupposes a discrete universal phonetic inventory. The main thrust of the present study is that there is no sharp boundary between 'competence' defined as the formal, symbolic, discrete time domain of language and human cognition on the one hand and 'performance' as the continuous, fuzzy, real-time domain of human physiology on the other.

  • Globally, civil infrastructures are deteriorating at an alarming rate caused by overuse, overloading, aging, damage or failure due to natural or man-made hazards. With such a vast network of deteriorating infrastructure, there is a growing interest in continuous monitoring technologies. In order to provide a true distributed sensor and control system for civil structures, we are developing a Structural Nervous System that mimics key attributes of a human nervous system. This nervous system is made up of building blocks that are designed based on mechanoreceptors as a fundamentally new approach for the development of a structural health monitoring and diagnostic system that utilizes the recently developed piezo-fibers capable of sensing and actuation. In particular, our research has been focused on producing a sensory nervous system for civil structures by using piezo-fibers as sensory receptors, nerve fibers, neuronal pools, and spinocervical tract to the nodal and central processing units. This paper presents up to date results of our research, including the design and analysis of the structural nervous system.

  • The determination of the associated weights in the theory of ordered weighted averaging (OWA) operators is one of the important issue. Recently, Wang and Parkan [Information Sciences 175 (2005) 20-29] proposed a minimax disparity approach for obtaining OWA operator weights and the approach is based on the solution of a linear program (LP) model for a given degree of orness. Recently, Liu [International Journal of Approximate Reasoning, accepted] showed that the minimum variance OWA problem of Fuller and Majlender [Fuzzy Sets and Systems 136 (2003) 203-215] and the minimax disparity OWA problem of Wang and Parkan always produce the same weight vector using the dual theory of linear programming. In this paper, we give an improved proof of the minimax disparity problem of Wang and Parkan while Liu's method is rather complicated. Our method gives the exact optimum solution of OWA operator weights for all levels of orness, $0\leq\alpha\leq1$, whose values are piecewise linear and continuous functions of $\alpha$.

  • This paper addresses the stochastic control problem of robots within the framework of parameter uncertainty and uncertain noise covariance. First of all, an open circle deterministic trajectory optimization issue is explained without knowing the unequivocal type of the dynamical framework. Then, a Linear Quadratic Gaussian (LQG) controller is intended for the ostensible trajectory-dependent linearized framework, to such an extent that robust hereditary NN robotic controller made out of the Kalman filter and the fuzzy controller is blended to ensure the asymptotic stability of the non-continuous controlled frameworks. Applicability and performance of the proposed algorithm shown through simulation results in the complex systems which are demonstrate the feasible to improve the performance by the proposed approach.

  • Concrete carbonation is a continuous and slow process from the outside to the inside, in which its penetration slows down with the increased depth of carbonation. In this paper, the results of the evaluation of the measurement of concrete carbonation depth using a non-destructive ultrasonic testing method are presented. According to the results, the relative nonlinear parameter caused more sensitivity in carbonation changes compared to Rayleigh's fuzzy velocity. Thus, the acoustic nonlinear parameter is expected to be applied as a quantitative index to recognize carbonation effects. In this research, combo diagrams were developed based on the results of ultrasonic testing and the experiment to determine carbonation depth using a phenolphthalein solution, which could be considered as instructions in the projects involving non-destructive ultrasonic test methods. The minimum and maximum accuracy of this method were 89% and 97%, respectively, which is a reasonable range for operational projects. From the analysis performed, some useful expressions are found by applying the regression analysis for the nonlinearity index and the carbonation penetration depth values as a guideline.

  • For the autonomous movement, the optimal path planning connecting between current and target positions is essential, and the optimal path of mobile robot means obstacle-free and the shortest length path to a target position. Many actual mobile robots should move without any information of surrounded obstacles. Thus, this paper suggests new methods of path planning and obstacle avoidment, suitable in unknown environments. This method of path planning always tracks the local target expected as the optimal one, and the result of continuous tracking becomes the first generated moving path. This path, however, do not regard the collision with obstacles. Thus, this paper suggests a new method of obstacle avoidance resembled with the Potential Field method. Finally, a simulation confirms the performance and correctness of the path planning and obstacle avoidance, suggested in this paper.

  • This paper presents a system which recognizes dynamic hand gesture for virtual reality (VR). A dynamic hand gesture is a method of communication for human and computer who uses gestures, especially both hands and fingers. Since the human hands and fingers are not the same in physical dimension, the produced by two persons with their hands may not have the same numerical values where obtained through electronic sensors. To recognize meaningful gesture from continuous gestures which have no token of beginning and end, this system segments current motion states using the state automata. In this paper, we apply a fuzzy min-max neural network and feature analysis method using fuzzy logic for on-line pattern recognition.
