In this paper propose a Koaren character recognition system using a neural network is proposed. This system is a multilayer neural network based on the masking field model which consists of a input layer, four feature extraction layers which extracts type, direction, stroke, and connection features, and an output layer which gives us recognized character codes. First, 4x4 subpatterns of an NxN character pattern stored in the input buffer are applied into the feature extraction layers sequentially. Then, each of feature extraction layers extracts sequentially features such as type, direction, stroke, and connection, respectively. Type features for direction and connection are extracted by the type feature extraction layer, direction features for stroke by the direction feature extraction layer and stroke and connection features for stroke by the direction feature extraction layer and stroke and connection features for the recongnition of character by the stroke and the connection feature extractions layers, respectively. The stroke and connection features are saved in the sequential buffer layer sequentially and using these features the characters are recognized in the output layer. The recognition results of this system by tests with 8 single consonants and 6 single vowels are promising.

A simple method of fabricating out-coupling structures was demonstrated via solution-processing to enhance light extraction from organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs). Scattering layers were easily obtained by spin-coating an $SiO_2$ sol solution that contained $TiO_2$ particles. By introducing the scattering layer and the solution-processible corrugated structure as internal and external extraction layers, the OLEDs showed increased external quantum efficiency without a change in the electroluminescence spectrum compared to conventional devices. Using these solution-processible out-coupling structures, nearly all-solution-processed OLEDs with enhanced light extraction could be fabricated. The light extraction enhancement is attributed to the suppression by the out-coupling structures of the light-trapping that arose at the interface of the glass substrate and the air.

To use the GaN based light-emitting diodes (LEDs) as solid state lighting sources, the improvement of light extraction and internal quantum efficiency is essential factors for high brightness LEDs. In this study, we suggested the new materials system of a zinc tin oxide (ZTO) layer formed on blue LED epi-structures to improve the light extraction. ZTO is a representative n-type oxide material consisted of ZnO and SnO system. Moreover, ZTO is one of the promising oxide semiconductor material. Even though ZTO has higher chemical stability than IGZO owing to its SnO2 content this has high mobility and high reliability. After formation of ZTO layer on p-GaN layer by using the spin coating method, structural and optical properties are investigated. The x-ray diffraction (XRD) measurement results show the successful formation of ZTO. The photoluminescence (PL) and absorption spectrum shows that it has 3.6-4.1eV band gap. Finally, the light extraction properties of ZTO/LED chip using electroluminescence (EL) measurement were investigated. The experimental and theoretical analyses were simultaneously conducted.

Skin color is a very important information for an automatic face recognition. In this paper, we proposed a skin region extraction method using the MLP(Multi-Layer Perceptron) and skin color model. We use the adaptive lighting compensation technique for improved performance of skin region extraction. Also, using an preprocessing filter, normally large areas of easily distinct non-skin pixels, are eliminated from further processing. Experimental results show that the proposed method has better performance than the conventional methods, and reduces processing time by 31~49% on average.

In this paper, we propose a method for recognizing printed Korean characters using the Preceding Layer Driven multi-layer perceptron. The new learning algorithm which assigns the weight values to an integer and makes use of the transfer function as the step function was presented to design the hardware. We obtained 522 Korean character-image as an experimental object through scanner with 600DPI resolution. The preprocessing for feature extraction of Korean character is the separation of individual character, noise elimination smoothing, thinnig, edge point extraction, branch point extraction, and stroke segmentation. The used feature data are the number of edge points and their shapes, the number of branch points, and the number of strokes with 8 directions.

The light extraction technology for improving the light efficiency of OLEDs is the core technology for extracting the light inside the OLEDs to the outside. This study demonstrates a simple method to generate random nanostructures (RNSs) containing high refractive index nanoparticles to improve light extraction and viewing angle characteristics. A simple dry low-temperature process makes the nanostructured scattering layer on the polymer resin widely used in the industry. The scattering layer has the shape of randomly distributed nanorods. To control optical properties, we focused on changing the shape and density of RNSs and adjusting the concentration of high refractive index nanoparticles. As a result, the film of the present invention exhibits a perpendicular transmittance of 85% at a wavelength of 550 nm. This film was used as a scattering layer to reduce substrate mode loss and improve EL efficiency in OLEDs.

A new accurate as well as efficient multi-layer interconnect capacitance extraction method is presented. Since Multi-layer interconnects is too complicated to directly extract capacitances, it is simplified with virtual ground concept. To make the structure tractable, the shielding effects should be separately determined. Since the electric field shielding effects, and the solid-ground-based capacitance matrices can be readily determined from the layout geometry, the accurate as well as efficient quasi-3D capacitances concerned with an objective line can be readily determined. In order to demonstrate its efficiency and accuracy, the parameters and circuit responses were benchmarked with 3D-field-solver-based results.

GaN-based light-emitting diodes (LEDs) of a 405 nm wavelength have been fabricated on a sapphire substrate by metal organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD). In order to reflect the photons, which are generated in the InGaN active region and emitted to the backside, to the front surface, a reflection layer was deposited onto the back of the substrate. Aluminum was used as the reflection layer and Al was deposited on the sample followed by Ti evaporation for firm adhesion of the reflection layer to the substrate. The light extraction efficiency was enhanced 52 % by adoption of the Ti-Al reflection layer.

We optimized the design of the flat encapsulant of a light-emitting diode (LED) package to obtain higher light output power (LOP), both by experiment and simulation using three-dimensional ray-tracing software. In the experiment, the refractive index of the encapsulant was varied (1.41 and 1.53). In addition, double-layer structures with these refractive indices (1.41/1.53) were investigated by varying the shape of the interface between the two among flat, concave, and convex. The experiments showed that the LOP of the double-layer encapsulant with convex interface increased by 13.4% compared to the single-layer encapsulant with a refractive index 1.41, which was explained by the increase of the light extraction efficiency (LEE) in connection with the increase of the critical angle (${\theta}_c$) and the decrease of the Fresnel reflection.

A number of experimental studies have been carried out in order to clarify the question as to how temporomandibular joint adapt to the changes of mandibular movement and occlusal equilibration. Recently, the studies on the interrelations between anatomical structure of temporomandibular joint and the state of occlusion have been actively performed in dentistry particularly in prosthodontic field. Author performed extraction of unilateral mandibular molars in 30 mature male rats, and observed histological changes of temporomandibular joint through the light microscope. Following results were obtained. 1. The loss of unilateral teeth gave rise to the changes in the location of condylar head, that is, interior displacement of condylar head in the extraction side and upper displacement in the non-extraction side. 2. Articular disk was compressed by the interior surface of condylar head, resulting in its extension below the condylar neck in the extraction side, and the histological arrangement of the compressed area showed irregular feature. 3. The extension of articular disk below the condylar neck was accompanied with the contraction of muscle fibers which were originated from the articular disk. 4. The cartilage layer of articular fossa to the exterior of the extraction side showed hypertropy. 5. Early in the experiment, the inernal extremity of condylar head of extract ion side showed bone resorption, and cartilage layer of condylar head showed hypertropy. At 12 weeks after experiment, the condylar surface showed flattened, and the cartilage layer of condylar head was replaced by the compact bone. 6. The articular disk showed the formation of pannus in the extraction side as well as in the non-extraction side. 7. The occlusal disturbance due to unilateral missing teeth has brought about the non-inflammatory retrogressive change and osteoarthrotic change late in the experiment.
