The purpose of this study is to recognize the importance of 'character', which is an important keyword in the era of the 4th revolution, and to approach the teaching method through the life of Haydn and his music among various methods of character education. The purpose of this study was to investigate the research hypothesis that the convergence education of music and character brings positive changes in pre-and post-recognition of sub-elements of character virtues. As a research method, character education was conducted through class activities using Haydn's life and music for a total of 6 times. The result shows the change in pre-and post-cognition of sub-elements of personality virtues, and statistically significant (p<0.01) in all virtues of character education. Activity-oriented classes through the life and music of a composer were worthy for the effective character education. A further study would be meaningful by applying various teaching activities if the scope of study is expanded.

Purpose: This study compares and analyzes the characteristics and progress of existing voice phishing and new voice phishing to present a basic policy plan to prepare countermeasures against new voice phishing based on psychological descriptions. Method: The criminal progress and characteristics of the two were compared and analyzed through damage cases on various portal sites centered on voice phishing crime scenarios. Result: As a result of analyzing the progress of the third stage of new voice phishing, the scenario of new voice phishing that can deceive victims was written more carefully and the scope of the crime was expanded. In the crime execution stage, the victim was socially isolated, reducing the victim's judgment ability, making it more difficult for investigative agencies to investigate, and in the final stage, the continuity and expansion of criminal damage such as extortion of money and valuables are shown. Conclusion: There were differences in the target and scope of the crime and the method of the crime strategy between the two, and the possibility of damage is much greater, so a more efficient response strategy should be prepared.

In this paper, we designed and implemented a graph assessment module that can evaluate graphs in an programming assessment system based on text and numbers. The assessment method of the graph assessment module is self-evaluation that outputs two graphs generated by codes submitted by learners and by answers, automatic-evaluation that converts each graph image into an array, and gives feedback if it is wrong. The data used to generate the graph can be inputted directly or used from external data, and the method of generatng graph that can be evaluated is MATLAB style in matplotlib, and the graph shape that can be evaluated is presented in mathematics and curriculum. Through expert review, it was confirmed that the content elements of the assessment module, the possibility of learning, and the validity of the learner's needs were met. The graph assessment module developed in this study has expanded the evaluation area of the programming automatic asssessment system and is expected to help students learn data visualization.

This paper proposed a novel method for constructing quasi-cyclic low-density parity-check (QC-LDPC) codes of medium to high code rates that can be applied in cloud data storage systems, requiring better error correction capabilities. The novelty of this method lies in the construction of sparse base matrices, using a girth greater than 4 that can then be expanded with a lift factor to produce high code rate QC-LDPC codes. Investigations revealed that the proposed large-sized QC-LDPC codes with high code rates displayed low encoding complexities and provided a low bit error rate (BER) of 10^-10 at 3.5 dB E_b/N₀ than conventional LDPC codes, which showed a BER of 10^-7 at 3 dB E_b/N₀. Subsequently, implementation of the proposed QC-LDPC code in a softwaredefined radio, using the NI USRP 2920 hardware platform, was conducted. As a result, a BER of 10^-6 at 4.2 dB E_b/N₀ was achieved. Then, the performance of the proposed codes based on their encoding-decoding speeds and storage overhead was investigated when applied to a cloud data storage (GCP). Our results revealed that the proposed codes required much less time for encoding and decoding (of data files having a 10 MB size) and produced less storage overhead than the conventional LDPC and Reed-Solomon codes.

When a saturated clay is sampled in an undisturbed manner from a bore hole, the sample extends vertically and shrinks horizontally under undrained conditions due to stress release. The conventional consolidation test specimen is trimmed from the expanded sample so that its diameter is equal to the inner diameter of the consolidation test ring, and this test procedure does not reproduce the actual consolidation behavior. The measurement of sample extension was conducted by means of overcoring method showed that the extension strains were 1 to 2%. To simulate the in-situ consolidation behavior, we proposed the consolidation test method that uses a specimen with a slightly smaller diameter than the inside diameter of consolidometer so that the specimen expands laterally to the inside of the ring.

This paper explores the use of machine learning in game production to create goal-oriented, realistic animations for skeleton monsters. The purpose of this research is to enhance realism by implementing intelligent movements in monsters within game development. To achieve this, we designed and implemented a learning model for skeleton monsters using reinforcement learning algorithms. During the machine learning process, various reward conditions were established, including the monster's speed, direction, leg movements, and goal contact. The use of configurable joints introduced physical constraints. The experimental method validated performance through seven statistical graphs generated using machine learning methods. The results demonstrated that the developed model allows skeleton monsters to move to their target points efficiently and with natural animation. This paper has implemented a method for creating game monster animations using machine learning, which can be applied in various gaming environments in the future. The year 2024 is expected to bring expanded innovation in the gaming industry. Currently, advancements in technology such as virtual reality, AI, and cloud computing are redefining the sector, providing new experiences and various opportunities. Innovative content optimized for this period is needed to offer new gaming experiences. A high level of interaction and realism, along with the immersion and fun it induces, must be established as the foundation for the environment in which these can be implemented. Recent advancements in AI technology are significantly impacting the gaming industry. By applying many elements necessary for game development, AI can efficiently optimize the game production environment. Through this research, We demonstrate that the application of machine learning to Unity and game engines in game development can contribute to creating more dynamic and realistic game environments. To ensure that VR gaming does not end as a mere craze, we propose new methods in this study to enhance realism and immersion, thereby increasing enjoyment for continuous user engagement.

Bacterial soft rot caused by Pectobacterium carotovorum subsp. carotovorum (Pcc) is one of the most severe diseases in radish cultivation. To control this plant disease, the most effective method has been known to cultivate resistant cultivars. Previously, we developed an efficient bioassay method for investigating resistance levels with 21 resistant and moderately resistant cultivars of radish against a strain Pcc KACC 10421. In this study, our research expanded to investigate the resistance of radish cultivars against six Pcc strains, KACC 10225, KACC 10421, ATCC 12312, ATCC 15713, LY34, and ECC 301365. To this end, the virulence of the six Pcc strains was determined based on the development of bacterial soft rot in seedlings of four susceptible radish cultivars. The results showed that the Pcc strains exhibited different virulence in the susceptible cultivars. To explore the race differentiation of Pcc strains corresponding to the resistance in radish cultivars, we investigated the occurrence of bacterial soft rot caused by the six Pcc strains on the 21 resistant and moderate resistant cultivars. Our results showed that the average values of the area under the disease progress curve were positively correlated with the virulence of the strains and the number of resistant cultivars decreased as the virulence of Pcc strains increased. Taken together, our results suggest that the resistance to Pcc of the radish cultivars commercialized in Korea is more likely affected by the virulence of Pcc strains rather than by race differentiation of Pcc.

This paper came up with the theoretical modelling of the metrology for the acoustic power using ultrasonic radiation force and showed some theoretical results. In order to do this, a scattering model for a rigid circular cone based upon the Kirchhoff approximation was made, which was followed by the calculation of acoustic power, and then, was converted to the radiation force. From these works, it provided the accuracy and limitation of the conventional method using a circular cone, and the expanded metrology modelling that can be applied to a circular cone with arbitrary apex angle. Using these, this study provided the dependence of the metrology for the acoustic power using ultrasonic radiation force on the frequency and the size of the target. As a result, the correction was yielded in the value of the acoustic power calculated by the suggested International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) method, which needs to be added when the frequency and the size of the target was considered.

Digital transformation has been actively evolving through the use of digital platforms. The fashion industry also utilizes digital platforms and significant changes have become particularly evident in fashion shows. Therefore it is essential to research digital fashion shows. The purpose of this study is to analyze the evolution of digital fashion shows in terms of their form and characteristics in response to changes in digital platforms. The research method consisted of literature research and case analysis. In this study, the development stages of digital platforms were divided into four stages: Internet platforms, SNS platforms, Metaverse platforms, and Artificial Intelligence platforms. Results were derived by analyzing digital fashion shows published on digital platforms at each stage. Internet digital fashion shows were used as an ancillary implement for fashion shows. SNS digital fashion shows expanded the fashion presentation method by experimenting with various fashion show formats. The Metaverse Digital Fashion Show offers a unique experience by integrating Virtual Reality and digital technology to create visual effects customized for the virtual environment. The Artificial Intelligence digital fashion show used virtual graphics created using Artificial Intelligence. Digital fashion shows will continue to evolve and become a significant digital strategy for fashion content and brands. The change in the format of digital fashion shows clearly showcases the characteristics of each stage, but the formats appear to merge during the development process.

This study was carried out to study the survival rate of thawed Hanwoo embryos frozen by the slow-rate freezing or the cryotop vitrification method. Hanwoo cumulus-oocyte complexes were recovered from ovaries at a slaughter house, matured for 20~22 hours, fertilized with Hanwoo semen for 5~6 hours, and cultured for 7~9 days in $38.5^{\circ}C$, 5% $CO_2$ incubator. For freezing, Day 7~9 blastocysts were collected. Embryos for the slow-rate freezing were equilibrated in 1.8 M ethylene glycol (EG) with Dulbecco's phosphate-buffered saline (D-PBS). Programmable cell freezer was precooled down to $-7^{\circ}C$, and the straw was seeded during 8 minutes-holding time, and was cooled to $-35^{\circ}C$ at the cooling rate of $0.3^{\circ}C/min$, and then was plunged and stored in liquid nitrogen. Embryos for the cryotop vitrification were treated in TCM199 with 0.5 M sucrose, 16% EG, 16% dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO). Embryos were then loaded individually onto cryotop and plunged directly into liquid nitrogen. The survival rates of embryos frozen by these two freezing methods were evaluated at 12 to 24h post-thawing. The survival rates of frozen/thawed Hanwoo embryos by the cryotop vitrification method ($56.86{\pm}26.53%$) were slightly higher than those by the slow-rate freezing method ($55.07{\pm}26.43%$) with no significant difference. Using the cryotop vitrification and the slow-rate freezing of Hanwoo blastocysts on Day 7 following in-vitro fertilization (IVF) treatment, the survival rates of frozen/thawed Hanwoo embryos were $72.65{\pm}18.3%$ and $79.06{\pm}17.8%$, respectively. The survival rates by the cryotop vitrification were higher than those by the slow-rate freezing on both Day 8 and 9 with significantly higher survival rate on Day 9 (p<0.05). Using the cryotop vitrification and the slow-rate freezing of Hanwoo embryos to compare between three different blastocyst stages, the survival rates of the blastocyst stage embryos were $66.22{\pm}18.8%$ and $45.76{\pm}12.8%$, respectively with higher survival rate by the vitrification method (p<0.05). And the survival rate of expanded blastocysts was higher than those of early blastocysts and blastocysts in two freezing methods with significantly higher survival rate by the slow-rate freezing method (p<0.05).
