This study purposed to interpret subjectivity, which centers on the concept of virtuality embedded in the process of virtualizing contextual awareness and mixing the boundary between realities and virtual realities for renewing the feeling of time and space represented by augmented realities in daily spaces, from the viewpoint of traditional media. By explaining how the reflection of reality is exposed focusing on immediacy and hypermediacy from the viewpoint of media remediation, we found that, different from conventional media, augmented reality enables the screen to function as a part of subject and play a role and, by doing so, converts it to the complete subject of digital media comprehending observers and operators.

We describe the development of an interactive aerobic training system using vision-based motion capture and multimedia technology. Unlike the traditional one-way aerobic training on TV, the proposed system allows the virtual trainer to observe and interact with the user in real-time. The system is composed of a web camera connected to a PC watching the user moves. First, the animated character on the screen makes a move, and then instructs the user to follow its movement. The system applies a robust statistical background subtraction method to extract a silhouette of the moving user from the captured video. Subsequently, principal body parts of the extracted silhouette are located using model-based approach. The motion of these body parts is then analyzed and compared with the motion of the animated character. The system provides audio feedback to the user according to the result of the motion comparison. All the animation and video processing run in real-time on a PC-based system with consumer-type camera. This proposed system is a good example of applying vision algorithms and multimedia technology for intelligent interactive home entertainment systems.

Apurinic/apyrimidinic endonuclease 1 (APE1) is an enzyme responsible for the initial step in the base excision repair pathway and is known to be a potential drug target for treating cancers, because its expression is associated with resistance to DNA-damaging anticancer agents. Although several inhibitors already have been identified, the identification of novel kinds of potential inhibitors of APE1 could provide a seed for the development of improved anticancer drugs. For this purpose, we first classified known inhibitors of APE1. According to the classification, we constructed two distinct pharmacophore models. We screened more than 3 million lead-like compounds using the pharmacophores. Hits that fulfilled the features of the pharmacophore models were identified. In addition to the pharmacophore screen, we carried out molecular docking to prioritize hits. Based on these processes, we ultimately identified 1,338 potential inhibitors of APE1 with predicted binding affinities to the enzyme.

During launch a spacecraft is subjected to a variety of dynamical loads transmitted through the launcher to spacecraft interface or air-born transmission excitations in the acoustic pressure field inside the fairing. As a result, spacecraft are tested on ground to ensure and demonstrate the global integrity of the structure against these loads, to screen the flight hardware for quality of workmanship and to validate mathematical models. This paper addresses the numerical modelling and simulation of the low frequency sine and random vibration tests performed on electrodynamic shaker facilities to comprise the mechanical-borne transmission loads through the launcher to spacecraft interface. Consequently, the paper reviews techniques and methodologies to derive a reliable and representative coupled virtual vibration testing simulation environment based on experimental data. These technologies are explored with the main objectives to ensure a stable, reliable and accurate control while testing. As a result, the use of the derived simulation models in combination with the added value of improved control and signal processing algorithms can lead to a safer and smoother vibration test control of the entire environmental test campaign.

반도체 기술의 비약적 발전에 힘입어 현재의 개인용 컴퓨터는 고성능 CPU를 탑재하고 1990대의 텍스트 기반의 운영체제에서 벗어나 그래픽 기반의 운영체제에서 다양한 멀티미디어 기능을 제공 한다. 이를 위한 입력장치로 텍스트 기반 운영체제에서 주로 사용된 키보드뿐 아니라 마우스, 카메라, 터치스크린 등의 다양한 장치들이 사용되고 있다. 그러나 빔 프로젝터를 이용한 프레젠테이션의 경우 아직도 레이저포인터를 이용한 발표가 일반적이며 발표자와 빔 프로젝트용 PC와의 인터랙션이 없기 때문에 다양한 멀티미디어 기능 구현이 제한적이다. 본 논문에서는 USB 웹 카메라를 이용하여 프로젝터 화면을 촬영한 후 영상처리 라이브러리인 OpenCV를 기반으로 레이저 포인터의 위치와 동작을 검출하여 원거리에서도 사용자가 레이저 포인터를 이용하여 마우스 동작을 재현할 수 있는 시스템을 개발하고자 한다. 이를 활용하면 레이저 포인터를 사용하여 발표자가 별도의 입력장치 없이 PC와의 인터랙션이 가능해져서 다양한 멀티미디어 기반의 프레젠테이션이 가능해진다.

본 논문에서는 AR 보드 게임을 위한 FTIR 방식의 멀티 터치 스크린 시스템을 제안한다. 기존 보드 게임은 카드의 정보나 위치등 다양한 정보를 보여주면서 사용자와의 상호작용에 있어서 버튼과 같은 단순한 형태의 입력을 요구한다. 이러한 낮은 상호작용을 보완하기 위해서 다양한 형태의 패턴 등을 입력할 수 있는 멀티 터치 스크린 시스템을 적용한 텐저블 사용자 인터페이스를 제공하여 사용자로 하여금 더 많은 상호작용과 높은 몰입감을 제공하고자 한다. 본 논문에서 제안하는 시스템은 다음과 같이 구성된다. 먼저, 텐저블 사용자 인터페이스를 위해서 Jefferson Y. Han이 제안한 시스템과 유사한 형태의 FTIR 방식의 멀티 터치 스크린을 테이블 탑 형태로 제작한다. 또한, 스크린 위의 카드를 인식하기 위해서 특정한 모양의 패턴을 적용한 적외선 반사지를 카드에 입힌 후, DI 방식을 사용하여 카드의 고유한 정보를 인식할 수 있도록 하였다. 마지막으로 사용자에게 인터페이스의 확장뿐만 아니라 시각적으로 높은 몰입감을 제공하기 위해 Bimber가 제안한 Virtual Showcase를 적용하였다. 이러한 시스템을 통해 사용자는 이전의 단조로운 형태의 게임에서 벗어나 훨씬 다양하고 높은 몰입감을 즐길 수 있게 되었다.

This study evaluates the difference of visual effect according to pant style and geometric pattern. The researcher made 28 stimuli-combination of four pant Stiles (classic, baggy, skinny, and bell-bottom) and seven geometric pattern (large vertical stripe, small vertical stripe, large horizontal stripe, small horizontal stripe, large check, small check, and hound's tooth check). The test involved 96 female college students. The stimuli were made with the i-Designer computer program. The panels tested the computer screen images of all manikins wearing pants. A 7-point scale was used to evaluate each image. For the data analysis, ANOVA and Duncan-test were applied along with an SPSS program. The results of this study are as follows. Three factors (lower-body compensation, abdomen highlight, and length compensation) influenced the visual effect pant styles and geometric patterns. The skinny style and large vertical stripe evaluated positively in elongated height and leg length and a slimmer overall body. It was shown that the vertical stripe pattern was evaluated as more positive than the horizontal stripe pattern in the visual effect; particularly, the results showed distinct aspects in the classic pants style. The mutual influence of the visual effect (according to pants style and geometric pattern) were indicated as two factors of lower-body compensation and length compensation. A more positive visual effects resulted in a higher mutual influence on pant style and geometric pattern.

The purpose of this study was to propose the method to recognize gestures based on inertia sensor which recognizes the movements of the user using inertia sensor and lets the user enjoy the game by comparing the recognized movements with the pre-defined movements for the game contents production. Additionally, it was tried to provide users with various data entry methods by letting them wear small controllers using three-axis accelerator sensor. Users can proceed the game by moving according to the action list printed on the screen. They can proceed the experiential games according to the accuracy and timing of their movements. If they use multiple small wireless controllers together wearing them on the major parts of hands and feet and utilize the proposed methods, they will be more interested in the game and be absorbed in it.

Ship handling simulator is a virtual ship navigating system with three dimensional screen system and simulation programs. FTS simulation can produce theoretically infinite experiment tests without time constraint, but which results in collecting determinstic observations. RTS simulation can collect statistical observations but has disadvantage of spending at least 30 minutes for a single experiment. The previous studies suggested that the number of experiment conditions to be tested could be reduced to obtain random data with RTS simulation by focusing on highly difficult experiment condition for ship handling. It has the limitation of not estimating the distribution of ship handling difficulty for the route. In this paper, similarity and clustering analysis are suggested for reduction methodology of experiment conditions. Similarity of experiment conditions are measured as follows: euclidean distance of ship handling difficulty index and correlation matrix of distance differences from the designed route. Clustering analysis and multi-dimensional scaling are applied to classify experiment conditions with measured similarity into reducing the number of RTS simulation conditions. An empirical result on Dangin harbor is shown and discussed.
