Recently, as the demand for multimedia services based on the wireless technologies and mobile devices increases, Full-touch screen mobile devices adopting touch screen keyboards are emerging to cope with the limited display size and take advantage of the flexibility in the design of user interfaces. However, the text entry task, which is one of the main features of the mobile devices, decreases the competitive advantages of the touch screen keyboards over the physical keyboards or keypads due to the lack of physical feedbacks and the frequent occurrence of mistyping. This study aims to introduce a novel text entry method named Fuzzy Touch and compare this method with the conventional text entry method on a touch screen keyboard in terms of the performance (time, number of touch) and the subjective ratings (ease of use, overall preference).

The recent trend of logistics demands for improved monitoring system of the inside of containers including current temperature and other environmental conditions. This paper presents an information processing technique with fuzzy logic that recognizes the current situations inside the target container and can be implemented on intelligent container systems. The ZigBee modules are used to collect information such as temperature, humidity, and shock inside the container in ubiquitous environment. The information processing system using fuzzy logic and the InTouch, one of SCADA(Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition) systems, is implemented to monitor the inside of the container and predict the emergency state.

Recently, need for the development of the quantification of subjective evaluation is growing for the production of high-touch and high-tech textile products. In this study, Fuzzy theory is utilized for the evaluation of the wear comfort of the various blouses. Result of a new evaluation method and factor scores, validity of the new evalution technique adopted fuzzy theory was crosschecked with the results of fator analysis and factor scores. As results, fuzzy theory was proved to be adequate methodology to objectify the subjective evaluation of the adequacy of clothing which is worn. When DUNCAN'S multiple comparion among median of the fuzzy composite score were compared with the results of factor score, the sensitivity of the test methods tends to increase. Therefore, it is suggested that fuzzy weighted checklist is an alternative evaluation scale for the subjective comparison of the textile products. In addition, individual median of fuzzy composite score value should be treated by statistical for the sensitive analysis of subjective evalution.

This paper describes a novel way of applying capacitive sensing technology to a mobile user interface. The key idea is to use grip-pattern, which is naturally produced when a user tries to use the mobile device, as a clue to determine an application to be launched. To this end, a capacitive touch sensing system is carefully designed and installed underneath the housing of the mobile device to capture the information of the user's grip-pattern. The captured data is then recognized by dedicated recognition algorithms. The feasibility of the proposed user interface system is thoroughly evaluated with various recognition tests.

Pre-existing authentication system such as token based method, knowledge-based and hybrid method have problems such as loss and wiretapping. for this, this paper describes the biometric authentication system which have the excellent convenience and security. In particular, a new biometric system by human face biometric features which have the non-enforcement and non-touch measurement is proposed. Firstly, facial features are extracted by Y- histogram and tilted face images we corrected by coordinate transformation and scaling has done for achieving independent of the camera positions. Secondly, feature vectors are extracted such as distance and intersection angles and similarities we measured by fuzzy relation matrix. finally, the effectiveness of this paper is demonstrated by experiments.

A comfort evaluation of car seat clothing has been proposed for high comforts interior seat clothing. Car seat covers have received wide spread attention due to their man-machine interface working. And then, it will be necessary for measurements on delicate basic mechanical-properties, which closely relate with human touch feeling of its materials. In this research, we have utilized $KES-FB^{(R)}$(Kawabata Evaluation System) series, $^ST300{(R)}$ analogue softness tester and friction tester for measurement a physical properties. In order to consider both kansei and physical properties on interior seat covers, we firstly have established subjective words of judgement for the seat covers. Secondly, related them to the objective measurement of physical properties. Each kansei-language has clearly defined as 'Softness', 'Elasticity', 'Volume' and 'Stickiness' for the adjectives of leather car seat covers. These technical terms have correlated to physical properties in other words, h (mm), bending moment ($gf^*$cm/cm), To-Tm (mm) and ${\mu}$. At this time, fuzzy logic has utilized to predict the value of kansei language through physical values. On the basis of this result, finally it is possible to predict quality index of car seat covers using neural networks technique. In short, we develop a quality evaluation system of car seat clothing combining four physical quantities with kansei engineering.

Major quality features of the beef carcass in most countries including Korea are size, marbling state of the lean tissue, color of the fat and lean tissue, and thickness of back fat of the 13th rib. To evaluate the beef quality, extracting loin parts from the sectional image of the 13th beef rib is crucial and is the first step. However, because of the inhomogeneous distribution and fuzzy pattern of the fat and lean tissues on the beef cut, it is difficult to extract automatically the proper contour of the lean tissue. In this paper, a prototype mobile beef quality measurement system, which can be implemented practically at the beef processing site was developed. The developed system was composed of the hand held image acquisition unit and mobile processing unit mounted with touch-pad screen. Algorithms to extract the boundary of the lean tissue and a proper tool to evaluate the marbling status have been developed using color image processing. The boundary extraction algorithm showed successful results for the beef cuts with simple and moderate patterns of the lean tissue and fat. However, it had some difficulty in eliminating complex pattern of the extraneous tissues adhered to the lean tissue in the boundary extraction. The developed algorithms were implemented to the prototype mobile processing unit.
