This study has showed verified results on 'Survey into Observer Preference for Table Decoration for Eating and Drinking'. It is a preliminary study to look into interrelation of preference to color tables, image adjectives, aesthetic value, by giving color changes in a certain regularity to each influential factor in functional table decoration. The result has demonstrated that, as for color image and preference,'observers prefers mid/low dark-toned brown which gives a feeling of 'high-quality, and like to eat', and orange tone with a fooling of 'warm and colorful'. In evaluating interrelation between preference and aesthetic value, the study has revealed that ordinary people take the influential factor of 'unity and Gestalt' seriously, while non-professionals preferred 'uniqueness'. Stimulant No. 7 is one of constituent factors of functional table decoration, eliciting significance of images on colors ant aesthetic value. This study also has practical problems about insufficiency or inadequateness in producing mood suitable to T P O, according to depending upon color changes in picking up stimulants, or other problems in selecting stimulants, according to time, seasons and generational parameter in which the inquiry is conducted, but it will serve as a stepping stone for developing new design using both qualitative and quantitative data in 려nctional table decoration.

Today the importance of color image is increasing for the brands as well as the products. This study was performed to classily the color image of baby's wear brands and to suggest how the color is effectively planned for the image. In order to classify the color image of 7 baby's wear brands, color palettes of 7 brands were also made by 6 subgroups, each season(summer, fall) by gender(boy, girl, new-born) and based on manufactured garments which were collected by on-line shops. Questionaries were organized with 40 pieces of the color palettes prints for 6 subgroups by 7 brands and 20 baby's wear image adjectives. The total 320 copies were used in the survey to students majored in fashion design. Questionaries were analyzed by factor analysis from SPSS 12.0 package program. There are 4 main factors for the color images of baby's wear brands, 'liveliness', 'loveliness', 'chic', 'neatness'. Not hue, but tone is more important to express the characteristics of color images of baby's wear brands. Also white and black are importantly used for baby's wear. The consistency of the brand color image across gender and season is very important to identify and strengthen the color image of brand.

This research was conducted to see the impact of brightness, polarity, and hue diference on legibility and emotional effcts of the word. In the experiment 1, stimuli with three levels of brightness difference and two-typed polarity were used. The results showed that legibility, aesthetics, and preference increased with increasing brightness difference. In the experiment 2, the same stimuli if experiment 1 included four hues: red, green, blue, yellow. As a result, the effects of brightness and polarity and the interaction effect of brightness and polarity on legibility were significant. Also, the effects of brightness, polarity, and hue and the interaction effect of brightness and hue on aesthetics and preference were significant. These results showed that legibility, aesthetics, and preference increased with increasing brightness difference of word and background and positive polarity was better than negative. Aesthetics and preference rating increased according to the following order: red, blue, green, yellow. In addition, the interaction effect of brightness and polarity on legibility was because reaction time of negative polarity was longer than positive at the small brightness difference condition. The interaction effect of brightness and hue on aesthetics and preference ws because the aesthetics rating of hue at the large brightness difference condition had significant difference compared with small brightness difference. In the experiment 3, participants rated text designs and simple color stimuli with 18 emotional adjectives to see the similarity of their emotion. The conclusion was that to reflect the subjective feelings of a rotor on the text design, it would be appropriate to use the rotor on background of the text design.

This study intended to provide basic data for the future naming of outdoor areas in apartment complexes by conducting research into the causes, lengths of time, trends, and characteristics of the changes of outdoor space names of apartment complexes and by analyzing current images of outdoor space names. In order to explore the causes and intervals of changes of outdoor spaces in apartment complexes, related literature was surveyed, with on-site inspections being made to examine outdoor space names by time intervals. At the site selected for this study, a case study was conducted to determine the outdoor space names and to understand the trends in the changes of these name in the apartment complexes. Moreover, a questionnaire survey incorporating selected adjectives was administered to investigate the perceived images of outdoor space names and finished construction spaces. The results are as follows: 1. Causes driving changes in apartment outdoor space names included changes in apartment complex planning concepts, changes in the values and demands of apartment buyers, social values, and changes of brand. Intervals of changes were divided into two with the 1997 IMF financial restructuring of the Korean economy as the division. 2. In regards to trends in changes of apartment outdoor space names and their characteristics, various features applied to spaces have caused many changes, which resulted in the phrase $'\bigcirc\;\bigcirc+garden'$, expressions suggesting various images, and Korean names. 3. The results of the analysis of apartment outdoor space names and finished construction images revealed that there was a difference in all the spaces. This is thought to be mainly due to such issues as paved min, the use of ready-made goods, and figurative expressions. The results of the study above indicate that changes in outdoor space names of apartment complexes have been made simply as part of marketing strategies, with no consideration of the residents. Apartments, an important means of housing in Korea, account for more than 50% of Korea's total housing, and the naming of outdoor space serves as an essential element for residents. Therefore, outdoor spaces of apartment complexes should be named in consideration of the final appearance after construction is completed, with effort by the industry being required.

Subcategorization, defining dependency relation between predicates and their complements, is an important source of knowledge for resolving syntactic and semantic ambiguities arising in analyzing sentences. This paper describes a Korean subcategorization dictionary, particularly annotated with semantic roles of complements coupled with thesaural semantic hierarchy as well as syntactic dependencies. For annotating roles, we defined 25 semantic roles associated with surface case markers that can be used to derive semantic structures directly from syntactic ones. In addition, we used more than 120,000 entries of thesaurus to specify concept markers of noun complements, and also used 47 and 17 predicate patterns for verbs and adjectives, respectively, to express dependency relation between predicates and their complements. Using a full-fledged thesaurus for specifying concept markers makes it possible to build an effective selectional restriction mechanism coupled with the subcategorization dictionary, and using the standard predicate patterns for specifying dependency relations makes it possible to avoid inconsistency in the results and to reduce the costs for constructing the dictionary. On the bases of these, we built a Korean subcategorization dictionary for frequently used 13,000 predicates found in corpora with the aid of a tool specially designed to support this task. An experimental result shows that this dictionary can provide 72.7% of predicates in corpora with appropriate subcategorization information.

The purpose of this research is to compare and analyze visual images between the Real garment and the 3D garment simulation with the various fabrics of flare skirts and to analyze the correlation between mechanical properties and visual images. The picture images (printed on paper) of the Real garment and the 3D garment simulation of experimental flare skirts were shown to the evaluation group of women in their 20s majoring in clothing and textiles, and were evaluated by questionnaires with 32 adjectives. SPSS Version 12.0 statistics program was utilized to analyze data. Factor analysis, One Way ANOVA, T-test and Duncan test were used to investigate visual effect of the Real garment and the 3D garment simulation. As the result of conducting factor analysis on the visual appearance, the images were driven with five factors: 'drapeability', 'attractive', 'body compensation', 'bulkiness', 'activeness'. Visual images were significantly related with mechanical properties of various fabrics, and the visual images between 3D garment simulations and real garment differed with various fabrics and their mechanical properties. Visual images of silk and polyester group, cotton, linen and wool group were significantly related with weight and thickness of kinds of fabrics.

The purpose of this study is to investigate sensibility words related with eco-friendly in the two media fashion magazines and internet newspapers and to analysis their appearance frequency and changes by the year through 1999~2010. Most frequently used words are 'nature, eco, cotton, natural fiber, health, fresh, clear, preservation, harmony, com fiber, and Lohas'. The words are divided in 4 groups: 'Nature/Environment, Material/Fiber, Human, and Adjectives/Micell'. A point of appearing time is analyzed: 'ecology, memory-shape material, organic, spa' were used before 2000, 'nature environment, eco-friendly, stretch material, wellbeing, substitute, recycling' were in 2000-2001, 'smart material, eco material, green' in 2002-2003, 'coolbiz, Lohas, natural dye' in 2004-2005, 'herb medicine, sustainable, warmbiz' in 2006-2007, 'greensumer, greenlife, solar energy, forest bath' in 2008-2009. Looking into their changes, in early 2000, the words of eco-friendly emotion and sensibility had appeared frequently relatively, but later on they decreased, and again recently increased showing highest appearing frequency. 'Nature/Environment' words have appeared recently very much, while 'Human' sensibility words have not changed much or decreased a little. 'Adjective/Micell' words has increased little bit recently. 'Material/Fiber' words showed decrease at fashion magazine, while they increased at the pages of internet news.

The lexical semantic system should be built to grasp lexical semantic information more clearly. In this paper, we studied a semantic clustering of predicates that is one of the steps in building the lexical semantic system. Unlike previous studies that used argument of subcategorization(subject and object), selectional restrictions and interaction information of adverb, we used sense tagged definition in dictionary for the semantic clustering of predicate, and also attempted hierarchical clustering of predicate using the relationship between the generic concept and the specific concept. Most of the predicates in the dictionary were used for clustering. Total of 106,501 predicates(85,754 verbs, 20,747 adjectives) were used for the test. We got results of clustering which is 2,748 clusters of predicate and 130 recursive definition clusters and 261 sub-clusters. The maximum depth of cluster was 16 depth. We compared results of clustering with the Sejong semantic classes for evaluation. The results showed 70.14% of the cohesion.

An Information Retrieval (IR) is to retrieve relevant information that satisfies user's information needs. However a major role of IR systems is not just the generation of sets of relevant documents, but to help determine which documents are most likely to be relevant to the given requirements. Various attempts have been made in the recent past to use syntactic analysis methods for the generation of complex construction that are essential for content identification in various automatic text analysis systems. Unfortunately, it is known that methods based on syntactic understanding alone are not sufficiently powerful to Produce complete analyses of arbitrary text samples. In this paper, we present a document ranking method based on two-level ranking. The first level is used to retrieve the documents, and the second level to reorder the retrieved documents. The main keywords used in the first level can be defined as nouns and/or compound nouns that possess good document discrimination powers. The sub-keywords used in the second level can be also defined as adjectives, adverbs, and/or verbs that are not main keywords, and function words. An empirical study was conducted from a Korean encyclopedia with 23,113 entries and 161 Korean natural language queries collected by end users. 850% of the natural language queries contained sub-keywords. The two-level document ranking methods provides significant improvement in retrieval effectiveness over traditional ranking methods.

If game images use colors improper for certain ages, the characteristics of games disappear, and the efficiency of image expression drops. thus a study in color is very important. Nevertheless, there is a lack of research on this subject. In this study, we investigated the difference of color of game images according to users. User group is divided into all users and users over 18 years old. Among the rank of games,10 each from games for all ages and games for non-teen-rated are selected, and the game-playing images are taken as snapshots to have 100 each images each, A total of 2000 images were extracted and the mean values of RGB and HSB of each game were obtained and independent sample t test was performed. The results showed that the RGB color values between the two users were significantly significant. In the future, it is expected that it will be helpful in color selection when developing psychotherapy games and emotional games using color psychology. Furthermore, we will use color image scales to express colors as adjectives, analyze colors in a variety of ways, and investigate the difference in color of game images in each country.
