This paper aims to propose a research framework of analyzing voting activities of a national assembly on the basis of member-level voting similarity and provides a case study in the $18^{th}$ national assembly in South Korea. First, we propose a bill contentiousness measure that gives a higher score to bills for which ayes and noes are more diversified in both conservative and progressive parties. Based on the bill contentiousness measure, the top 5%, 10%, and 20% bills were identified and used for further analyses. Moreover, we propose a member-level voting similarity measure that compensates for the lower frequency of noes, and evaluate the pair-wise voting similarities for all lawmakers. Then, voting similarity differences to the affiliated/non-affiliated parties were analyzed for the members in the two major parties according to some internal/external key factors. Finally, similar voting groups were identified and their affiliations were investigated based on the multi-dimensional scaling (MDS) and network analysis techniques. A case study on the $18^{th}$ national assembly of South Korea showed that the cohesion of the members in the 'Hanara' party becomes higher than that of the 'Minju' party as the bill contentiousness increases, whereas the number of elected, local constituency versus proportional representation, and the competition intensity in a local constituency were found to be partially influential to the voting activities of lawmakers. In addition, MDS and network analysis showed that there is a distinctive difference between two parties when all bills are analyzed, whereas the diversity of parties increases in the same group as the bill contentiousness increases.

Objectives: Civic participation, that which directly influences important decisions in our personal lives, is considered necessary for developing a society. We hypothesized that civic participation might be related to self-rated health status. Methods: We constructed a multi-level analysis using data from the World Value Survey (44 countries, n=50 859). Results: People who participated in voting and voluntary social activities tended to report better subjective health than those who did not vote or participate in social activities, after controlling for socio-demographic factors at the individual level. A negative association with unconventional political activity and subjective health was found, but this effect disappeared in a subset analysis of only the 18 Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) countries. Moreover, social participation and unconventional political participation had a statistically significant contextual association with subjective health status, but this relationship was not consistent throughout the analysis. In the analysis of the 44 countries, social participation was of borderline significance, while in the subset analysis of the OECD countries unconventional political participation was a stronger contextual determinant of subjective health. The democratic index was a significant factor in determining self-rated health in both analyses, while public health expenditure was a significant factor in analysis of 18 countries. Conclusions: Our investigation suggests that civic participation, including unconventional political activity at the contextual level, might be a significant determinant of health status of a country.

스마트폰은 다양한 고성능의 센서가 포함되어 있으며 센서에서 발생하는 데이터를 이용하여 인간의 활동을 분석하는 연구가 진행되어왔다. 이러한 인간 활동 인식은 생활 패턴 분석, 운동량 측정, 위험 상황 감지 등 다양한 분야에서 활용될 수 있다. 그러나 기존 연구의 경우 인간의 기본 행동의 인식에 초점을 두거나 효율적인 배터리 사용을 위해 최적의 인식 결과를 내는 방법을 연구하는 경우가 많았다. 본 논문에서는 기본 행동에 건강 관리 목적으로 실내 및 실외에서 행해지는 운동 동작을 총 10가지로 정의하여 인식하도록 하였다. 이를 위해 가속도, 자이로 및 위치 센서의 값을 수집하고 데이터 전처리 과정을 거치고, 활동을 인식하기 위해서 SVM 모델 외에 안정적인 성능을 가진 앙상블 기반의 랜덤 포레스트, 그라디언트 부스팅 모델을 결합하여 투표 기반으로 인식 결과를 결정하였다. 그 결과 높은 정확도로 정의된 활동의 인식이 가능하였으며 특히 유사한 종류의 실내 및 실외 운동 활동의 분류가 가능하였다.

다시기 위성 영상을 이용한 변화탐지 분석은 인간 활동의 변화를 직접 반영하는 지표이다. 변화탐지는 크게 화소 기반 변화탐지(PBCD: Pixel-Based Change Detection)와 객체 기반 변화탐지(OBCD: Object-Based Change Detection)로 구분한다. 화소 기반 변화탐지는 알고리즘이 간단하고 비교적 쉽게 정량적 분석이 가능해 전통적으로 많이 쓰여온 기법이나 고해상도 영상에서의 화소 기반 변화탐지는 오탐지나 노이즈(noise)가 발생하기 때문에 고해상도 영상에서의 활용도가 떨어진다. 또한, 고해상도 다시기 영상은 취득 당시 센서의 자세나 지형적 특성으로 인해 영상 등록(image registration)을 수행한 이후에도 지형적 불일치가 발생한다. 등록오차(registration noise)라고 불리는 이 지형 불일치는 고해상도 다시기 영상 활용을 위한 공간정보 추출 시 정확도를 떨어뜨리는 방해요인으로 작용한다. 이에 본 연구에서는 등록오차를 고려한 고해상도 영상의 객체 기반 변화탐지를 수행하였다. 이 때, 다양한 화소 기반 변화탐지 결과를 모두 고려한 객체 기반 변화탐지 결과를 도출하였으며 이 과정에서 분할 영상(segmentation image)과의 major voting을 적용하였다. 제안 기법과 화소 기반 변화탐지 결과, 그리고 화소 기반 변화탐지 결과를 객체 기반 변화탐지로 확장한 결과의 비교를 통해 제안 기법의 우수성을 평가하였다.

In this study, demands of smart technology development were analyzed for rural village communities. Questionnaire items were derived by grasping the current status of information and communication technology. 49 villages in 8 regions were selected and surveys and statistical analysis were conducted. The main results of the study are as follows. First, 92% of community leaders use smartphones, search for information (38%), communicate with the Internet (36%) using smartphones, use KakaoTalk (31%), and Facebook (24%). Second, in the rural and urban exchange activities, promote support information service (51%) and promote method suggestion service (48.5%) showed that the demand for services in promote field was high. It is linked to the creation of economic opportunities. Third, in the income and production activities, demand for distribution services technology (39.3%) was high in the field of production and distribution, and cold chains that help maintain freshness until food, such as meat, fish, and vegetables are delivered to consumers when agricultural products are distributed. The constant temperature control system needs to be actively introduced. Fourth, autonomy activities showed the highest demand for air conditioning and control systems (34.2%) of community building, and the lowest demand for electronic voting (9.4%) and videoconferencing (9.4%) services. Lastly, in the general activity area of the community, the demand for technology of emergency services (37.1%) and health self-diagnosis service (35.4%), which are technologies in the welfare sector, ranked first and second respectively.

Background: To investigate political participation by dental hygiene students and analyze the differences therein based on the learning efficacy of dental hygiene policy. Methods: A total of 239 dental hygiene students who were expected to graduate responded to the survey. The data were collected online using a structured questionnaire consisting of 6 items on general characteristics, 10 on political participation, and 15 on the learning efficacy of dental hygiene policy. Statistical analysis was performed using SPSS 23.0. Political participation based on the learning efficacy of dental hygiene policy was analyzed using independent t-tests, ANOVA, and multiple regression analysis (p<0.05). Results: Among the dental hygiene students, 60.7% voted in all three recent presidential, general, and local elections, and 14.2% did not. For political parties supported, 65.7% responded that they had "no supporting party," and 34.3% indicated that they had a "supporting party." In terms of the level of political participation of dental hygiene students (0~50 points), the average score was 25.8 points, with the average passive political participation (0~25 points) score at 15.6 points and the average active political participation (0~25 points) score at 10.2 points. With an increase in dental hygiene policy learning efficacy, both passive and active political participation showed higher scores (p<0.05). Conclusion: Dental hygiene students showed low political participation. The presence of a supporting party, higher voting participation, and higher learning efficacy of dental hygiene policy were associated with higher passive and active political participation. Therefore, to increase this population's interest in political participation, various opportunities for related learning need to be promoted and provided in academia, leading to the enhancement of their political capabilities. In this manner, dental hygienists should expand their capabilities in various roles such as advocates, policy makers, and leaders.
