This paper proposes a novel method for content-based watermarking based on feature points of an image. At each feature point, watermark is embedded after affine normalization according to the local characteristic scale and orientation. The characteristic scale is the scale at which the normalized scale-space representation of an image attains a maximum value, and the characteristic orientation is the angle of the principal axis of an image. By binding watermarking with the local characteristics of an image, resilience against affine transformations can be obtained. Experimental results show that the proposed method is robust against various image processing steps including affine transformations, cropping, filtering, and JPEG compression.

ZnO thin films on glass substrate were depostied by RF magnetron reactive sputter with various argon/oxygen gas ratios and substrate temperatures. Crystallinities, surface morphologies, chemical compositions, and electrical properties of the films were investigated by XRD, SEM, XPS and electrometer(keithley 617). All films showed a strong preferred orientation along the c-axis on glass substrate, and the chemical stoichiometry was obtained at Ar/O$_2$.=50/50. The propagation velocity of ZnO SAW filter was about 2,590 m/sec and insertion loss was a minimum value of abut -21dB.

Numerous types of SIS (Strategic Information Systems) have been developed based on certain strategic frameworks. This paper reviews those traditional SIS frameworks, and points out the ignorance of customer-orientation. Also, this paper addresses a new SIS framework based on customer-orientation: i.e., transaction visibility. This paper proposes that computer systems can increase customer value by changing visibility in transactions with customers. Relevant cases are also presented for sake of clear understanding of this new framework.

$RuO_2$ thin films were prepared with various deposition conditions by rf magnetron sputtering. The films were annealed in vacuum, air, and air-vacuum, after that, the structural and electrical properties of the films were investigated. As the substrate temperature increases, the preferred orientation of the films changes from (101) to (200), and the grain size increases; especially, at $500^{\circ}C$, the size considerably increases. The preferred orientation of the films changes from (200) to (101) and the roughness of surface increase with the increase in oxygen partial pressure. The lowest value of resistivity of $RuO_2$ we prepared is $1.5\times 10^{-5}\Omega\codt\textrm{cm}$ at the conditions of $400^{\circ}C$ and 10% of oxygen partial pressure. After the processes of annealing, the films deposited at $400^{\circ}C$ and a oxygen partial pressure of 10% were relatively stable. The films deposited at $500^{\circ}C$ have denser structure and smoother surface when the films are annealed in vacuum after annealing in air.

Recrystallization textures of ferritic stainless steel sheets of STS 430 were varied by means of different cold rolling procedures. The conventional normal rolling led to the evolution of strong through-thickness texture gradients in the final recrystallization texture, while the cross-rolling led to a decrease in texture gradients. Micro-texture observation by EBSD revealed that the formation of band-like orientation colonies formed close to the center layer was responsible for ridging. Modification of the recrystallization texture and microstructure by cross-rolling destroyed band-like orientation colonies and consequently reduced the ridging height.

To follow a sound source by a mobile robot, the relative position and orientation of the sound source from the mobile robot have been estimated using a microphone array. In this research, the difference among the traveling times of the sound source to each of three microphones has been used to calculate the distance and orientation of the sound source from the mobile robot which carries the microphone array. The cross-correlation between two signals has been applied for detecting the time difference between two signals, which provides reliable and precise value of the time difference comparing to the conventional methods. To generate the tracking direction to the sound source, fuzzy rules are applied and the results are used to control the mobile robot in a real-time. The efficiency of the proposed algorithm has been demonstrated through the real experiments comparing to the conventional approaches.

In wind power generating system connected in power grid, the value of stator flux has almost constant because the stator side of doubly fed induction machine(DFIM) is connected to power grid. Using the stator and rotor current, it is possible to estimate the slip angle and rotor speed. A stator flux orientation scheme and rotor slip estimator are employed to achieve control of generating power in stator side. To verify the theoretical analysis, a 5-hp DFIM prototype system and PWM power converter are built. Results of computer simulation and experiment are presented to support the discussion.

The purpose of this research was to analyze the correlation between the Apartment Purchase Price Decision Factor and Amenity decision Factor with cognition of the Consumer. The result are as follows; 1. The correlation coefficient between the Apartment Price Decision Factor and Amenity decision Factor with cognition of the Consumer was 0.587. 2. The ranking of the purchase price factor which it prefers were analyzed orientation > sunlight > view > the rising price expectation > natural environment etc. And the ranking of the amenity were analyzed orientation > natural environment > view > sunlight > noise etc. 3. Consumer group was classified the location, sex, year of ages and unit scale. The rank correlation coefficient of (the significant was below 0.05) sex was 0.617~0.644, year of ages was 0.62~0.771 and unit scale was 0.762~0.852. This research proved the fact that the amenity correlated with the apartment purchase price decision factor, so amenity contained an economic value. And this result will be used in decision-making-process of apartment construction.

This paper describes the algorithm that lowers the dimension, maintains the object recognition and significantly reduces the eigenspace configuration time by combining the edge orientation histogram and principle component analysis. By using the detected object region as a recognition input image, in this paper the object recognition method combined with principle component analysis and the multi-layer network which is one of the intelligent classification was suggested and its performance was evaluated. As a pre-processing algorithm of input object image, this method computes the eigenspace through principle component analysis and expresses the training images with it as a fundamental vector. Each image takes the set of weights for the fundamental vector as a feature vector and it reduces the dimension of image at the same time, and then the object recognition is performed by inputting the multi-layer neural network.

The process of political and economic transformation of Germany following reunification has been well documented, but the question of psychological reunification is addressed by the present study. In order to analyze how East German adolescents adapted to the changing socialization context following reunification, questionnaires on values orientation, self-efficacy, subjective well being, coping, attitude toward violence and toward reunified German society were administered to 149 high school students. Results indicated that subjects had high scores on value orientation in private life and used active coping strategies. They had high scores in self-efficacy and subjective well being. Their political attitudes were complex and diverse. There were group differences by gender and type of school attended.
