In this paper, we propose a floral scent recognition using odor sensors and a odor display using odor distribution system. Proposed odor recognition has method of correlation coefficient between sensors that select optimal sensors in floral scent recognition system of selective multi-sensors. Proposed floral scent recognition system consists of four module such as floral scent acquisition module, optimal sensor decision module, entropy-based floral scent detection module, and floral scent recognition module. Odor distribution system consists of generation module of distribution information, control module of distribution, output module of distribution. We applied to floral scent recognition for performance evaluation of proposed sensors decision method. As a result, application of proposed method with floral scent recognition obtained recognition rate of 95.67% case of using 16 sensors while applied floral scent recognition system of proposed sensor decision method confirmed recognition rate of 96% using only 8 sensors. Also, we applied to odor display of proposed method and obtained 3.18 thorough MOS experimentation.

In this paper, we propose data format for smell, taste, touch with speech and vision which can be transmitted and implement a floral scent detection and recognition system. We provide representation method of data of smell, taste, and touch. Also, proposed floral scent recognition system consists of three module such as floral scent acquisition module using Metal Oxide Semiconductor (MOS) sensor array, entropy-based floral scent detection module, and floral scent recognition module using correlation coefficients. The proposed system calculates correlation coefficients of the individual sensor between feature vector(16 sensors) from floral scent input point until the stable region and 12 types of reference models. Then, this system selects the floral scent with the maximum similarity to the calculated average of individual correlation coefficients. To evaluate the floral scent recognition system using correlation coefficients, we implemented an individual floral scent recognition system using K-NN with PCA and LDA that are generally used in conventional electronic noses. In the experimental results, the proposed system performs approximately 95.7% average recognition rate.

Among the human senses, olfactory information still does not have a proper data presentation method unlike that regarding vision and auditory information. It makes presenting the sense of smell into multimedia information impossible, which may be an exploratory field in human computer interaction. In this paper, we propose an olfactory information presentation method, which is a way to use smell as multimedia information, and show an application for scent generation and odor display using a web service. The olfactory information can present smell characteristics such as intensity, persistence, hedonic tone, and odor description. The structure of data format based on olfactory information can also be organized according to data types such as integer, float, char, string, and bitmap. Furthermore, it can be used for data transmitting via a web service and for odor display using a scent generator. The scent generator, which can display information of smell, is developed to generate 6 odors using 6 aroma solutions and a diluted solution with 14 micro-valves and a micropump. Throughout the experiment, we confirm that the remote user can grasp information of smell transmitted by messenger service and request odor display to the computer controlled scent generator. It contributes to enlarge existing virtual reality and to be proposed as a standard reference method regarding olfactory information presentation for future multimedia technology.

This paper presents an implementation of a scent collector to collect various scent using a multi-gas sensor. The proposed scent collector is implemented with a solenoid valve, a vacuum pump, a chamber containing four gas sensors, and a Raspberry Pi. To verify the functionality of the proposed scent collector, experiments were conducted to collect five scent sources.

Will orange scent enhance video reality if it is presented with a video which vividly illustrates orange juice? Or, will romantic scent improve video reality if it is presented along with a date scene? Whereas the former is related to reality improvement when concrete objects or places are present in a video, the latter is related to a case when they are absent. This paper reviews previous research which tested diverse videos and scents in order to answer the above two different questions, and discusses implications, limitations, and future research directions. In particular, this paper focuses on measurement methods and results regarding acceptability of olfactory information, perception of scent similarity, olfactory vividness and video reality, matching between scent vs. color (or color temperature), and description of various scents using emotional adjectives. We expect this paper to help researchers or engineers who are interested in using scents for video reality.

For measuring EEG with the international 10-20 electrode system on 16 channels, and to analyze the interrelationship between the original signals and the changed signals after the stimulation, we use the scent of lavender which stimulates the olfactory sense. Moreover, the effect of the scent stimulation to the brain is analyzed. The purpose of this analysis is to apply these results to the computerized mapping of the brain signals and to find possible ways of specifying the source of the brain signals through various medical applications.

In this paper, we propose method of correlation coefficients between sensors by statistical analysis that selects optimal sensors in odor recognition system of selective multi-sensors. The proposed sensor decision method obtains odor data from Metal Oxide Semiconductor(MOS) sensor array and then, we decide optimal sensors based on correlation of obtained odors. First of all, we select total number of 16 sensors eliminated sensor of low response and low reaction rate response among similar sensors. We make up DB using 16 sensors from input odor and we select sensor of low correlation after calculated correlation coefficient of each sensor. Selected sensors eliminate similar sensors' response therefore proposed method are able to decide optimal sensors. We applied to floral scent recognition for performance evaluation of proposed sensors decision method. As a result, application of proposed method with floral scent recognition using correlation coefficient obtained recognition rate of 95.67% case of using 16 sensors while applied floral scent recognition system of proposed sensor decision method confirmed recognition rate of 94.67% using six sensors and 96% using only 8 sensors.

We investigated the intensity and pattern of the scent produced by diploid and tetraploid Cymbidium flowers, using an electronic nose with 6 metal oxide sensors (MOS). The MOS responses were evaluated by principal component analysis, discriminant function analysis, and sensor data. These analyses revealed that tetraploid flowers had a stronger scent than diploid flowers in Cymbidium Golden Elf 'Sundust'. Furthermore, among the different flower parts-column, lip, and petals-the column produced the strongest scent. There was no significant difference between the flowering periods of diploid and tetraploid potted Cymbidium Golden Elf 'Sundust' and Cymbidium Elma 'Orient Toyo' grown in a greenhouse. Moreover, there were no significant differences between the number of flowers per flower stem and the length of flower stems on the diploid and tetraploid plants of these two Cymbidium cultivars. This study provides potentially useful information for the breeding of polyploidy Cymbidium in the floriculture industry.

Although wireless devices ar the most suitable for ubiquitous environment, they have restrictive capacities when using internet services than desktop environment. Considering different system features of mobile devices such as small display and limited input capability, an alternative scheme to access the Web efficiently is required. In the paper, we propose a mobile service method of S&T information content to support ubiquitous environment though the case study of KISTI's Scent of Science content service based on mobile.

Success or failure depends on the customer relationships from information services. Recently, as strengthening the customer relationships, marketing with the customer relationships through the web-site is being important factor. In the web-site, applying the service brand or the sense of community in online is the core. In the order to apply the sense of community in online to KISTI's Scent web-site, it is operated KISTI's Scent supporters and proposed the management of customer group plans.
