Currently, large-scale, deep construction is being carried out adjacent to subway tracks in korea. when excavating adjacent to each other, it is very important to ensure the safety of earth retaining structures and underground structures. therefore, we are managing the safety of the subway by introducing an automated measurement system. deformation of the subway track during adjacent excavation may affect train running stability. this is a factor that can be linked to train derailments. however, current subway track safety evaluation using automated measurement systems relies only on the maximum value of measured data. therefore, a method to improve the usability of automated measurement system results is needed. in this study, we utilized a technique that can quantitatively evaluate the measurement results of a large amount of subway track deformation. a safety evaluation was conducted on subway track deformation due to adjacent excavation using a vast amount of data using probabilistic statistical analysis techniques.

At present, the traditional concrete surface inspection methods based on artificial vision have the problems of high cost and insecurity, while the computer vision methods rely on artificial selection features in the case of sensitive environmental changes and difficult promotion. In order to solve these problems, this paper introduces deep learning technology in the field of computer vision to achieve automatic feature extraction of structural damage, with excellent detection speed and strong generalization ability. The main contents of this study are as follows: (1) A method based on DeepLabV3+ convolutional neural network model is proposed for surface detection of post-earthquake structural damage, including surface damage such as concrete cracks, spaling and exposed steel bars. The key semantic information is extracted by different backbone networks, and the data sets containing various surface damage are trained, tested and evaluated. The intersection ratios of 54.4%, 44.2%, and 89.9% in the test set demonstrate the network's capability to accurately identify different types of structural surface damages in pixel-level segmentation, highlighting its effectiveness in varied testing scenarios. (2) A semantic segmentation model based on DeepLabV3+ convolutional neural network is proposed for the detection and evaluation of post-earthquake structural components. Using a dataset that includes building structural components and their damage degrees for training, testing, and evaluation, semantic segmentation detection accuracies were recorded at 98.5% and 56.9%. To provide a comprehensive assessment that considers both false positives and false negatives, the Mean Intersection over Union (Mean IoU) was employed as the primary evaluation metric. This choice ensures that the network's performance in detecting and evaluating pixel-level damage in post-earthquake structural components is evaluated uniformly across all experiments. By incorporating deep learning technology, this study not only offers an innovative solution for accurately identifying post-earthquake damage in civil engineering structures but also contributes significantly to empirical research in automated detection and evaluation within the field of structural health monitoring.

The aim of this research is to review recent trends in weather and climate research in North Korea. We selected North Korean journal 'Weather and Hydrology' for the last 10 years (2007-2016), and identified trends in research subject, researchers, and affiliations. Furthermore, we analyzed the major achievements and trends by research sector. Our main results are same as follows. The largest number of researches on 'modernization and informatization on prediction' have been carried out in North Korea's recent meteorological and climatological research. This could be implicated that the scope of national science policy directly affected the promotion of specific research field. Especially, North Korea was evaluated to be concentrating its efforts on numerical model research and development. The numerical model which enables very short-term (6 hours) rainfall forecast which using ensemble Kalman filter data assimilation method (4D EnKF) was developed. In addition, development of automatic weather system and improvement of the data transfer system were promoted. However, the result reveals that the automated real-time data transfer system was not fully equipped yet. These results could be used as a basic data for meteorological cooperation between South and North Korea.

Computerized visual database construction of architectural precedents has just begun in some research institutes in the world. In Korea the first visual database has shown its testl version by S architectural design firm in september 1996. In this article the author discusses the historical contexts and the recent computerization cases, the traits, the uses and the limits of architectural visual database system of precedents. The forms and contents of data fields in two cases are compared with a focus on the description of architectural traits of each data entry. Compared to the KIA format, the S database has better performance for architectural design reference because it collects more pictures and drawings and larger texts for the field of architectural chracteristics. But this latter also is constrained by its capacity of memory and so lacks the reciprocity of the DOORS in the Graduate School of Design, Harvard University. A visual database system which has more flexible allocation of memory and respondent with the users is yet to be prepared. But this system also should be maintained by some experts in architectural history, theory and criticism, because their knowledge is essential for selection of precedents and revision of the data description. A full-fledged electronic visual database in architecture will not only save much effort for the architect, but also will change the architects' design behavior. Nevertheless this does not mean the automatic promotion of architects' creativity.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of real-time remote video instruction using zoom on learners' English reading achievement. The study also sought to identify the efficiency of zoom video lectures and consider supplementing them by surveying learners' opinions and satisfaction regarding zoom video lectures. To this end, control and experimental groups were set up, and two achievement tests and a questionnaire were conducted. The study's results demonstrated that zoom video lectures have a positive effect on learners' English reading achievement. The questionnaire found that learners are satisfied with zoom video lectures for the following reasons: 'increased interest in and motivation towards learning', 'self-directed learning', 'active interaction', 'ease of access', 'ease of information retrieval'. At the same time, the questionnaire also found that some learners are dissatisfied with zoom video lectures due to 'mechanical errors or defects', 'poor audio quality', and 'the need to add customized functions for efficient classes'. In practice, zoom video lectures must be supplemented with automatic attendance processing, convenient data upload and download, and more efficient video screen management. Given the recent increase in online classes, we, as instructors, must develop teaching activities and/or strategies for video lectures that can encourage active participation by learners.

Precast concrete apartments were main stream of domestic industrialized housing around 90's, and Steel Houses applying Steel Stud technique with light weighted steel have been dominant portion since 1995. On the other hand, various building techniques including Steel Stud method and highly prefabricated and industrialized Unit method are prevailing in developed countries like Japan. Steel stud and unit box have their own merits and demerits, but the more crucial aspect is that the constant design standard should be applied in each design procedure. It entails the necessity of industrial housing development on the open system basis. In this study, the design standard for unit house will be established coping with the established preparing standard for design specifications defined by architectural law and promotion law of housing construction. That is for design standard of industrialized private housing on the open system basis. This study attempts to propose the design automation, with the method of unit construction of which the rate of pre-fabrication is the biggest, that can cope with the demand of user on the basis of open-system. Ticky-tacky is the biggest technical problem in suppling industrialization housing. Therefore, we will suggest a basic plan for design automation of unit modular housing which can raise the productivity of industrialization housing by applying open system, utilized by DB of component and unit, and solve the problem concerned about ticky-tacky.

Color chart area is automatically extracted in image that captured a crop such as fruits with the color chart, and an approximation formula is obtained for the change in feature value of the color indexes. Comparison is made with the color value of the crop area, and the growing degree is assessed according to the correlation. Using a compact PC equipped with the program, image of fruits is captured, and the output value obtained by the system is compared to the rating by expert. In the automatic recognition of the color chart out of doors, the complete color indexes is correctly acquired in 22 of 29 images. And indoors, they are correctly acquired in all of 34 images. In the color value judgment of the Japanese pear, indoors, 32 of 34 images is within 1.0 of the judgment error (compared the value read off by experts), the average error is about 0.5. These results indicate a practicable value.
