인터넷의 급속한 발달과 이미지 콘텐츠 개발 기술의 발달로 현재 누구나 쉽게 이미지 콘텐츠의 공유 및 배급이 용이해졌다. 그러나 이로 인해 누드나 포르노와 같은 불건전한 유해 이미지들의 접근 역시 쉬워지고 있다. 특히, 스마트 폰이나 스마트 TV 등 멀티미디어 기능이 가능한 휴대장치 및 단말기의 비약적인 발전으로 인하여, 언제 어디서나 우리들은 유해 이미지의 노출되어 있다. 따라서 유해 이미지 시청이 적당하지 않은 연령층까지 무방비 상태에 놓여 있기 때문에 이를 막을 수 있는 시급한 대책이 요구되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 이중 피부 화소 검출에 이용하여 인체 영역 검출해내고 이것을 이용하여 유해 이미지 분류를 위한 방법을 제안하고자 한다. 일반적으로 피부 화소 검출 기법은 오차율을 가지고 있기 때문에 정확한 검출이 힘들다. 따라서 우리는 검출에 대한 강도를 조절하여 이중으로 피부 화소를 검출하여 좀더 정확한 피부 영역을 획득한다. 또한 기존의 방법들은 대체로 일차적인 피부 영역 검출에 초점을 둔 반면, 유해 판별의 주된 기준이 되는 가슴이나 성기, 엉덩이 등을 좀 더 중점적으로 찾으려 하지 않았다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 검출된 피부 영역에서 유해 부위를 좀 더 집중적으로 찾아 유해 판별 성능을 높이는 방법을 제안하고 실험으로 증명을 하고자 한다.

This study identifies the factor structure of sociocultural attitudes toward appearance, appearance management attitudes, fashion behaviors, and the effects of sociocultural attitudes toward appearance and appearance management attitudes on fashion behaviors. Questionnaires were administered to 255 college students living in Daegu Metropolitan City and Kyungbook province. The data collected were analyzed using frequency, factor analysis, multiple regression, and t-test. The findings were as follows. Sociocultural attitudes toward appearance were composed of two factors (body internalization and appearance recognition). Appearance management attitudes were composed of four factors (shape management recognition, weight management, appearance satisfaction, and health care). Fashion behaviors were composed of six factors (convenience, fashion following, self-satisfaction, attractiveness, pursuit of change, and pleasure). Gender of college students showed a distinction between the sub-variables of sociocultural attitudes toward appearance factors (body internalization) and appearance management attitudes (weight management) and fashion behaviors (convenience, fashion following, self-satisfaction, and pleasure). Women had more desire to have a similar looking body of TV celebrities than men. The effects of sociocultural attitudes toward appearance and appearance management attitudes on each fashion behavior variables (convenience, fashion following, self-satisfaction, attractiveness, pursuit of change, and pleasure) were explained by the factors of body internalization and appearance recognition, and weight management, appearance satisfaction, and health care. College students produced fashion appropriate to the situation. Strategies of fashion marketing based on these results are as follow. Through mass media, advertisers help university students realize a healthy outlook and create a social atmosphere that can promote healthy body attractions.

In this paper, we propose an intelligibility enhancement algorithm for multimedia contents using spectral shaping. The dialogue signals is essential to understand the plot of audio-visual media contents such as movie and TV. However, the non-dialogue components as like sound effects and background music often degrade the dialogue clarity. To overcome this problem, this paper tries to improves the dialogue clarity of audio soundtracks which contain important cues for the visual scenes. In the proposed method, the dialogue components are first detected by soft masker based on speech presence probability (SPP) which is widely used in speech enhancement field. Then, extracted dialogue signals are applied to the spectral shaping method. It reallocate the spectral-temporal energy of speech to enhanced the intelligibility. The total energy is maintained as unchanged via a loudness normalization process to prevent saturation. The algorithm was evaluated using the modeled and real movie soundtracks and it was shown that the proposed algorithm enhances the dialogue clarity while preserving the total audio power.

The fast advances in digital video processing and multimedia processing technology over the last decade enabled various non-linear video browsing techniques. Based on the machine-understanding of the video content, non-linear video brows ing interfaces such as key-frame based content summarization have been introduced. The key-frame based user interfaces, such as storyboard or table of content, however, are still very hard for conventional TV users to use, and are very hard to implement without the service providers providing additional information for the construction of the key-frame based interfaces. In this paper, non-linear video browsing techniques, which not only overcome previously described drawbacks but also are easy-to-use, and real-time video indexing technology to support the proposed browsing techniques are proposed. The structure-based skipping and skimming help users easily find interesting scene and understand the content in a very short time, using real-time video indexing technology.

Attitude toward the advertising is widely used in studies of traditional mass media advertising. As internet marketing becomes more important, attitude toward the website will gain parallel status in evaluating effectiveness. And also, studies on relationship among attitude toward the website, attitude toward the advertising, attention to the commercial, attitude toward the brand, & purchase intention was needed. This study sets a hypothetical model about the relationship among attitude toward the website, attitude toward the advertising, attention to the commercial, attitude toward the brand, & purchase intention. And to testify this model, 10 hypotheses were set. The results of the analysis, all variables were related significantly.

The survey was carried out with a random sample of adults living in Busan and Gyeongnam. The collected material is used by the SPSS version 12.0. The frequency, percentage, examination were applied for studying. We separated the group of safety, general management, real hair management according to characteristic about scarp and hair problems. There is highly understanding about the hair problem that if someone has really sensitive scalp or who has dandruff or who has thin hair or who has someone has hair losing problem in their family. Usually, the group has highly understanding of hair problem, they consult about their hair and scalp with expert. They have a really good attention about the mass media(TV, Internet, Newspaper, Magazine) for scalp and hair health. They reduce using hair products. They always read hair product brochure first and use it. They don't eat fast food frequently. The survey has shown high levels of article. Now the research showed us that s have a strict connection between self-recognition and scalp treatments. That means someone has understanding hair problem then start treatment first.

This paper proposes an efficient depth-map coding method for generating virtual-view images in 3D-Video. Virtual-view images can be generated by the view-interpolation based on the depth-map of the image. A conventional video coding method such as H.264 has been used. However, a conventional video coding method does not consider the image characteristics of the depth-map. Therefore, this paper proposes an adaptive depth-map coding method that can select between the H.264/AVC coding scheme and the proposed gray-coded bit plane-based coding scheme in a unit of block. This improves the coding efficiency of the depth-map data. Simulation results show that the proposed method, in comparison with the H.264/AVC coding scheme, improves the average BD-rate savings by 7.43% and the average BD-PSNR gains by 0.5dB. It also improves the subjective picture quality of synthesized virtual-view images using decoded depth-maps.

The purpose of this study was to research healthy food behavior and food recognition for each Asian country after subjects had visited Asian restaurants. The subjects of the study were university students from Griffith university and Queensland university, Australia. The survey was conducted from June 1 to 28, 2010. The summary of the analysis is as follows. Firstly, for dietary behavior related to healthy food, 'average' was the most common answer at 41.0% (102 respondents). Regarding the standard of selecting healthy food, 'if it is good for health' was the most common answer, regarding the reasons to like healthy food, 'because it is good for health', was the most common, and for information about healthy food, 'obtain from TV or media' was the most common. Regarding eating healthy food at home or dining out, most respondents answered 'once or twice a week', whereas regarding thinking of eating healthy food while dining out, 'average' was the most common answer. Secondly, the recognition of six Asian cuisines were ranked in the order of Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Thai, Indian, and Vietnamese. Representative well-being food by country, Bibimbap of Korea, Sushi of Japan, Shark's Fin of China, Tom Yum Kung of Thailand, Curry of India and Goi Cuon of Vietnam were selected. Thirdly, regarding recognition of well-being food, disease effect factor, health-oriented factor, nutrition factor and vegetarian diet factor were extracted. We found that disease effect factor and nutrition factor had positive (+) effects on visiting Asian restaurants due to recognition of well-being foods. Therefore, it is expected that more local people will eat at Asian restaurants if the public relations for Asian restaurants emphasizes harmony between well-being food and Asian food.

The purpose of this study was to investigate eating habits, healthy eating behaviors, food preference etc. of university students for them to enjoy delightful and healthy campus life and offer preliminary data to the related educational facilities and households for them to make use of the data for making out a menu. We conducted survey aiming at 4-year-course students in Jeonbuk area and survey period was from May 6th of 2013 to May 24th of 2013. The result are as followings. First, food habit evaluation with 10 questions shows that they are inclined to have refreshments, water, vegetables, fruits, grains and protein food often and also eat food blandly. So, we consider this finding is generally positive. Second, through the research on their healthy eating behaviors, we learned their interests in healthy food is average and their selection criteria for healthy food is nutrition value. Information sources for healthy food are mainly TV or mass media and good healthy food in their opinion is Korean food. Third, the findings of food preference show university students like the white rice most but don't like the rice with beans most in terms of rice type. We also found their favorite food is fried rice, favorite noodle is spaghetti, favorite soups are thick beef soups, favorite broth is potato and pork rib broth, favorite stew is kimchi stew, favorite steamed dish is braised short ribs and favorite meat is pork.
