The current study was conducted to examine the temporal and spatial activation sequences related to morphosyntactic, semantic and orthographic-lexical sentences, focusing on the morphological-orthographic and lexical-semantic deviation processes in Korean language processing. The Event-related Potentials (ERPs) of 15 healthy students were adopted to explore the processing of head-final critical words in a sentential plausibility task. Specifically, it was examined whether the ERP-pattern to orthographic-lexical violation might show linear precedence over other processes, or the presence of additivity across combined processing components. For the morphosyntactic violation, fronto-central LAN followed by P600 was found, while semantic violation elicited N400, as expected. Activation of P600 was distributed in the left frontal and central sites, while N400 appeared even in frontal sites other than the centro-parietal areas. Most importantly, the orthographic-lexical violation process revealed by earlier N2 with fronto-central activity was shown to be complexes of morphological and semantic functions from the same critical word. The present study suggests that there is a linear precedence over the morphological deviation and its lexical semantic processing based on the immediate possibility of lexical information, followed by sentential semantics. Finally, late syntactic integration processes were completed, showing different topographic activation in order of importance of ongoing sentential information.

The letter transposition effect is crucial for understanding whether letter position coding within words is fixed. Despite the recognized importance of syllables in Korean word recognition, studies on syllable transposition effects have been inconsistent, indicating a lack of clarity on its mechanisms. Our study aims to address this by analyzing the syllable transposition effect, with a particular focus on distinguishing the influences of orthographic from morphological processing. This focus is due to Korean syllables serving simultaneously as units of orthography and elements of morphology. Through a masked priming lexical decision task with bisyllabic words, we conducted two experiments. Experiment 1 examined the effect across various word types to assess the impact of word origin, while Experiment 2 directly compared the influences of morphological and semantic processing. Results from both experiments showed a significant syllable transposition effect across all word types, pointing to orthographic processing as the key factor in the effect, rather than morphological or semantic factors. This underscores the flexibility of syllable position coding in the early stages of word processing and emphasizes orthographic processing as the primary influence on the syllable transposition effect.

At what level of orthographic representation is phonology linked in thelexicon? Is it at the whole word level, the syllable level, letter level, etc? This question can be addressed by comparing the two scripts used in Korean, logographic Hanmoon and alphabetic/syllabic Hangul, on a task where judgements must be made about the phonology of a visually presented word. Four experiments are reported using a "homophone decision task" and manipulating the sub-lexical relationship between orthography and phonology in Hanmoon and Hangul, and the lexical status of the stimuli. Hangul words showed a much higher error rate in judging whether there was another word identically pronounced than both Hangul nonwords and Hanmoon words. It is concluded that the relationship between orthography and phonology in the lexicon differs according tn the type of script owing to the availability of sub-lexical information: the process of making a homophone derision is based on a spread of activation exclusively among lexical entries, from orthography to phonology and vice versa (called "Orthography-Phonology-Orthography Rebound" or "OPO Rebound"). The results are explained within the mulitilevel interactive activation model with orthographic units linked to phonological units at each level.

The present study discusses some of important issues in the word recognition such as the roles of the form(orthographic & phonologic) and semantic information by investigating the processes of Korean heteronym. The priming paradigm has been applied to see whether or not there would be facilitatory effect from form and/or semantic information. In experiment 1, orthographically-related or phonologically-related prime stimuli were presented and a lexical decision task for Korean heteronym was conducted. The same procedure was applied for the experiment 2, except the prime stimulus which was semantically-related. The results showed that orthographic and phonologic information did not influence the processing of the heteronym while semantic information facilitated its processing, suggesting that the semantic information plays an important role in the processes of the Korean heteronym.

This paper proposes a 3D structure recovery and registration method that uses four or more common points. For each frame of a given video, a partial structure is recovered using tracked points. The 3D coordinates, camera positions and camera directions are computed at once by our improved scaled orthographic factorization method. The partially recovered point sets are parts of a whole model. A registration of point sets makes the complete shape. The recovered subsets are integrated by transforming each coordinate system of the local point subset into a common basis coordinate system. The process of shape recovery and integration is performed uniformly and linearly without any nonlinear iterative process and without loss of accuracy. The execution time for the integration is significantly reduced relative to the conventional ICP method. Due to the fast recovery and registration framework, our shape recovery scheme is applicable to various interactive video applications. The processing time per frame is under 0.01 seconds in most cases and the integration error is under 0.1mm on average.

Two experiments were conducted to support the suggestion that the same information processing was used in both input modalities, visual and auditory modality in Wonil Choi & Kichun Nam(2003)'s paper. The primed lexical decision task was performed and pseudoword prime stimuli were used. The result was that priming effect did not occur in any experimental condition. This result might be interpreted visual facilitative information and phonological inhibitory information cancelled each other.

This paper presents an automatic focal length estimation method to correct the fisheye lens distortion in a spatially adaptive manner. The proposed method estimates the focal length of the fisheye lens by generating two reference focal lengths. The distorted fisheye lens image is finally corrected using the orthographic projection model. The experimental results showed that the proposed focal length estimation method is more accurate than existing methods in terms of the loss rate.

Recognition of 3D objects using computer vision is complicated by the fact that geometric features vary with view orientation. An important factor in designing recognition algorithms in such situations is understanding the variation of certain critical features. The features selected in this paper are the angles between landmarks in a scene. In a class of polyhedral objects the angles at certain vertices may form a distinct and characteristic alignment of faces. For many other classes of objects it may be possible to identify distinctive spacial arrangements of some readily identifiable landmarks. In this paper given an isotropic view orientation and an orthographic projection the two dimensional joint density function of two angles in a scene is derived. Also the joint density of all defining angles of a polygon in an image is derived. The analytic expressions for the densities are useful in determining statistical decision rules to recognize surfaces and objects. Experiments to evaluate the usefulness of the proposed methods are reported. Results indicate that the method is useful and powerful.

People read in different settings, including when music is playing in the background. Whether the presence of music facilitates, hinders, or does not affect language processing is an on-going debate in the current literature. The present study used ERPs to examine the influence of music on orthographic, semantic, and syntactic processing by inspecting P2, N400, and P600 responses, respectively. A total of 60 participants judged the correctness of visually presented sentences while listening to music with lyrics, music without lyrics, or in silence. The results showed that the P2 and P600 effects were larger in the silent condition than in the music-with-lyrics condition, while there were no N400 differences among the conditions. This indicates that only lyrical music interferes with orthographic and syntactic language processing, while it has no, or minimal, effect on semantic processing. The results are discussed in relation to the background music interference effect.

This Paper describes a fast and stable camera pose estimation method for real-time augmented reality systems. From the feature tracking results of a marker on a single frame, we estimate the camera rotation matrix and the translation vector. For the camera pose estimation, we use the shape factorization method based on the scaled orthographic Projection model. In the scaled orthographic factorization method, all feature points of an object are assumed roughly at the same distance from the camera, which means the selected reference point and the object shape affect the accuracy of the estimation. This paper proposes a flexible and stable selection method for the reference point. Based on the proposed method, we implemented a video augmentation system that inserts virtual 3D objects into the input video frames. Experimental results showed that the proposed camera pose estimation method is fast and robust relative to the previous methods and it is applicable to various augmented reality applications.
