Antarctic King Sejong Station was established in King George Island, the South Pole in 1988, and has been executing the monitoring studies on the change of antarctic natural environment. As an available power, the wind energy generator has been used in the form of hybrid with mainly diesel generator. Because the wind generation power sharply changes by wind energy, it must be careful during the system operation. When the power system becomes stable, the output performance of wind energy generator becomes stable. But, in case of unstable system, the errors frequently occur on the wind energy generator and it badly impacts the power system by output of wind energy generator. The purpose of this paper is to analyze suitability while operating the system of 10kW wind energy generator at Antarctic King Sejong Station, an isolated area, and to analyze the problem and improvements by power quality.

This paper analyzes voltage control method in order to supply high-quality power for stand-alone microgrid. Stand-alone microgrid is composed of battery bank, stand-alone PCS and controllable loads. The main role of stand-alone PCS is to supply high-quality power to loads as main source by using stable voltage method regardless of load conditions. In particularly, output voltage of stand-alone PCS gets severely unbalanced voltage under unbalanced loads. Fundamental positive and negative sequences are transformed by two coordinates transformation which are rotated in each opposite direction, respectively. Each fundamental d-q voltage is regulated by each fundamental PI control. In addition, low-order harmonics are compensated through resonant controllers. Performance of stand-alone microgrid is tested for feasibility, and it is verified that output voltage of THD is improved to 1% from 2.2% under 50 kW balanced load, and is improved to 1.1% from 2.6% under 50 kW unbalanced load.

The lateral-mode characteristics of 850-nm GaAs/(Al,Ga)As multiple-quantum-well laser diodes and their influence on the kinks in output optical power are investigated. For the investigation, self-consistent electro-thermal-optical simulation and measurement of fabricated devices are used. From this investigation, the optimal P-cladding thickness that provides single-lateral-mode operation is determined, so that high beam quality can be achieved even at high output powers.

A genetic improvement program in Korea was implemented to improve the performance of Hanwoo cattle by generating livestock with genetically desirable economic characteristics. In particular, in response to external changes, such as the expansion of Free Trade Agreement (FTA), the livestock genetic improvement program has increased farm income by improving the productivity and quality of Hanwoo cattle. Using production cost data from Statistics Korea, the total input and output indices of Hanwoo feeding cattle from 2008 - 2021 were estimated and the growth and productivity changes were analyzed. The productivity change measures results were used to estimate the cumulative effects of the Hanwoo genetic improvement program on quality improvement, another purpose of the program, using a finite distributed lag model. The average annual increase in output (market weight) of Hanwoo was 0.9%. However, total input increased by 1.6%, resulting in a 0.6% decline in total factor productivity. In contrast, the Hanwoo genetic improvement program contributed significantly to the production of high quality beef, rather than contributing to improved productivity of the cattle. Hanwoo carcass weight, which is used as a performance indicator for the livestock genetic improvement program, has significantly improved and is projected to increase at a slower rate. The collective findings indicate the need for new performance indicators that can comprehensively indicate the performance of the genetic improvement of Hanwoo.

In general, the quality of a welding process tends to vary with depending on the work environment or external disturbances. Hence, in order to achieve the desirable quality of welding, we should have the optimal welding condition that is not significantly affected by these changes in the environment or external disturbances. In this study, we used a dual response surface method in consideration of both the mean output variables and the standard deviation in order to optimize the V-groove arc welding process. The input variables for GMA welding process with the dual response surface are welding voltage, welding current and welding speed. The output variables are the welding quality function using the shape factor of bead geometry. First, we performed welding experiment on the interested area according to the central composite design. From the results obtained, we derived the regression model on the mean and standard deviation between the input and output variables of the welding process and then obtained the dual response surface. Finally, using the grid search method, we obtained the input variables that minimize the object function which led to the optimal V-groove arc welding process.

There is currently a burgeoning demand for image synthesis from photos and videos using deep learning models. Existing video synthesis models solely extract motion information from the provided video to generate animation effects on photos. However, these synthesis models encounter challenges in achieving accurate lip synchronization with the audio and maintaining the image quality of the synthesized output. To tackle these issues, this paper introduces a novel framework based on an image animation approach. Within this framework, upon receiving a photo, a video, and audio input, it produces an output that not only retains the unique characteristics of the individuals in the photo but also synchronizes their movements with the provided video, achieving lip synchronization with the audio. Furthermore, a super-resolution model is employed to enhance the quality and resolution of the synthesized output.

The hotel business should enhance a service quality in order to improve management skills and profits. However, when compared the size of foodservice industry and hotel, it is show that the hotel management systems are insufficient. In this respect, this study examines how the culture of hotel business affects to service quality. The results of the analysis are as follows. First, the culture of hotel business affects restaurant tendency. Consequently, the hotel, which is open-minded culture, copes with the external changes in a flexible manner. Second, the culture of hotel business affects hotel management skills. Good culture of the business creates the positive result toward the employees, customers, prime cost and inventory control. Third, hotel restaurant tendency affects to efficient hotel service quality and management performance. Fourth, change of hotel management skills brings difference of service quality and management performance. Good hotel management skills will be able to raise the competitive power between hotels. In the future, various empirical researches are continuously expected. By doing so, the result of the study helps to scholars and hotel managers.

In this paper, we propose a rate control algorithm for constant quality real time video coding. To achieve constant quality, previous algorithm exploit mean absolute of difference(MAD) as measure of frame complexity. However, if scene is abruptly changed or if quantization parameter is not constant, encoder produces various output bits with same MAD. Therefore we know that MAD does not appropriately reflect characteristic of frame. To solve this problem, we exploit model parameter as measure of frame complexity. Because model parameter means slope between output bits and MAD, it reflects correctly complexity of frame. And because previous model, R-MAD model, is not considered quantization parameter, as quantization parameter increases or decreases, model parameter of frame also vary. So model parameter obtained using previous model cannot reflect internal characteristic of video. We solve this problem using proposed model, which is considered quantization parameter. Experiment results show that our algorithm provide better performance, in terms of quality smoothness than previous algorithm. Especially, when scene is abruptly changed, our algorithm alleviates quality drop.

Super-resolution is the process of converting a low-quality image into a high-quality image. This study was conducted using ESPCN. In a super-resolution deep neural network, different quality images can be output even when receiving the same input data according to the activation function that determines the weight when passing through each node. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to find the most suitable activation function for super-resolution by applying the activation functions ReLU, ELU, and Swish and compare the quality of the output image for the same input images. The CelebaA Dataset was used as the dataset. Images were cut into a square during the pre-processing process then the image quality was lowered. The degraded image was used as the input image and the original image was used for evaluation. As a result, ELU and swish took a long time to train compared to ReLU, which is mainly used for machine learning but showed better performance.
