$Cu(In_xGa_{1-x})Se_2$ thin films were prepared and characterized with various Ga contents. As the Ga content increased, the grain size of CIGS film became smaller. The 2 $\theta$ values in XRD patterns were shifted to larger values and the overlapped peaks were splitted. The energy bandgap increased from 1.04 to 1.67 eV and the resistivity decreased. The solar cell fabricated with ZnO/CdS/$Cu(In_{0.7}Ga_{0.3})Se_2/Mo$ structure yielded an efficeincy of 14.48% with an acitive area of 0.18 $cm^2$. The efficiency decreased with further increase of Ga content.

With ever more popularity of video web-publishing, popular content is being compressed, reformatted and modified, resulting in excessive content duplication. Such overlapped data can cause problem of search speed and rate of searching. However, duplicated data on other site can provide alternatives while specific site cause problem. This paper proposes the efficient method, for retrieving. similar video data in large database. In this research we have used the method to compare summarized video image instead of the raw video data, and detected similar videos through clustering in that dimension feature vector through PCA(principle component analysis). We show that our proposed method is efficient and accurate through our experiment.

Mulberry fruits were semi-dried using hot air ($60-100^{\circ}C$) or cool air ($20-40^{\circ}C$), and the effects of the drying temperature and processing time on the quality of the final dried mulberry fruits were investigated. Response surface methodology was employed to establish a statistical model and predict the conditions resulting in minimal loss of the total phenolic content (TPC) and ascorbic acid. Thus, using overlapped contour plots, the optimal conditions for producing semi-dried mulberry fruits, which reduced the moisture residue to 45% and minimized the nutrient losses of TPC and ascorbic acid, were determined for the hot-air process ($60.7^{\circ}C$ for 5.4 h) and cool-air process ($34.8^{\circ}C$ for 23.3 h). Plus, a higher drying temperature was found to lead to a faster loss of moisture and ascorbic acid, while the TPC was significantly decreased in the cool-air dried mulberry fruits due to the higher activity of polyphenol oxidase between 30 and $40^{\circ}C$.

Recently, though mulberry's superiority as a functional food has been proven, its use as a food material is limited. Therefore, in this study, to develop jelly using mulberry that is compatible with Korean tastes as health functional food by grafting the method to manufacture jelly consumed as a dessert or a snack in the west, according to the central composite design, mulberry jelly was produced by varying the content of citric acid ($X_1$), sucrose ($X_2$), and gelatin ($X_3$) at 5 levels. And by applying the response surface methodology, rheology and sensory preference experiment results were analyzed, the optimization of mulberry jelly manufacturing condition was carried out, and studies on the analysis of composition were performed. As the sensory preference of mulberry jelly, except the flavor, the remaining hardness, elasticity, sweetness, color, and the overall quality were found to be significant. And similarly, it was found to be influenced greatly by gelatin content generally. Based on the overlapped part of categories, in the range of factors that satisfy all the sensory categories, the value located in the middle was calculated, the optimization point was obtained, and it was found to be 6.2 g citric acid, 141.0 g sugar, and 13.5 g gelatin.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to suggest an improved version of Proof-of-Nonce (PoN) algorithm, which is a distributed consensus algorithm used for block chain system. Methods: First, we used response surface method for design of experiment that is to generate experimental points considering non-linear relationship among variables. Then, we employed overlapped contour plots for visualizing the impact of control variables to performance target. Results: First, we modified the consensus procedure of the existing PoN algorithm by diminishing the content of the exchanged message. Then, we verified the performance improvement of the new PoN algorithm by performing a numerical experiment and paired t-test. Finally, we established new regression models for consensus time and Transactions per second (TPS) and proposed a method for optimizing control variables for obtaining performance target. Conclusion: We could improve the performance of the previous version of PoN algorithm by modifying the content of the exchanged message during 4-steps of consensus procedure, which might be a stepping stone for designing an efficient and effective consensus algorithm for blockchain system with dynamic operation environment.

The purposes of this study were to analyze the duplicated contents of 'family life' unit of home economics and other subject textbooks for the middle school students. It focused on the 'family life' area in the home economics textbook compiled following the 2009 revised curriculum, and textbooks of other subjects compiled in the same period. To achieve the purpose of this study, "Home economics I II", "Ethics I II", "Social studies I II", "Science I II III", and "Physical education"were analyzed. The results were as follows. The contents in 'family life' area of "Home economics I II" were overlapped most in the textbook on Ethics, and then Science, Physical education, and social studies in order. In Ethics textbook the contents in family life area and those throughout the whole chapters of home economics textbook are overlapped most. The contents of home economics textbook are overlapped at the content of 'Juvenile's sexual development' of 'Human development process' in science and physical education, and at the content of 'Juvenile's emotional and social development' of 'Understanding of human development' in social studies. Seen from this study the 'family life' area of home economics is overlapped in science, physical education, and social studies, but, home economics has comprehensive contents with the goal of managing healthy individual and family life compared with other subjects, and it induces students' moral practices in their real life on the basis of scientific knowledge different from morality, social studies, and physical education. Hence, the instruction of 'family life' area might be done more effectively by focusing on home economics and integrating the connections of duplicated contents in Ethics, Science, Physical education, and Social studies.

Image retrieval is one of the most exciting and fastest growing research fields in the area of multimedia technology. As the amount of digital contents continues to grow users are experiencing increasing difficulty in finding specific images in their image libraries. This paper proposes an efficient image descriptor which uses a local color and texture in the non-overlapped block images. To evaluate the performance of the proposed method, we assessed the retrieval efficiency in terms of ANMRR with common image dataset. The experimental trials revealed that the proposed algorithm exhibited a significant improvement in ANMRR, compared to Dominant Color Descriptor and Edge Histogram Descriptor.

This letter proposes a robust feature extraction method using a spatially normalized mean for temporal ordinal measurement. Before computing a rank matrix from the mean values of non-overlapped blocks, each block mean is normalized so that it obeys the invariance property against linear additive and subtractive noise effects and is insensitive against multiplied and divided noise effects. Then, the temporal ordinal measures of spatially normalized mean values are computed for the feature matching. The performance of the proposed method showed about 95% accuracy in both precision and recall rates on various distortion environments, which represents the 2.7% higher performance on average compared to the temporal ordinal measurement.

In this paper, we propose a watermarking method for protecting the ownership of three-dimensional (3D) content generated from depth and texture images. After selecting the target areas to preserve the watermark by depth-image-based rendering, the reference viewpoint image is moved right and left in the depth map until the maximum viewpoint change is obtained and the overlapped region is generated for marking space. The region is divided into four subparts and scanned. After applying discrete cosine transform, the watermarks are inserted. To extract the watermark, the viewpoint can be changed by referring to the viewpoint image and the corresponding depth image initially, before returning to the original viewpoint. The watermark embedding and extracting algorithm are based on quantization. The watermarked image is attacked by the methods of JPEG compression, blurring, sharpening, and salt-pepper noise.

A mention has a noun or noun phrase as its head and constructs a chunk that defines any meaning, including a modifier. Mention detection refers to the extraction of mentions from a document. In mentions, coreference resolution refers to determining any mentions that have the same meaning. Pointer networks, which are models based on a recurrent neural network encoder-decoder, outputs a list of elements corresponding to an input sequence. In this paper, we propose mention detection using pointer networks. This approach can solve the problem of overlapped mention detection, which cannot be solved by a sequence labeling approach. The experimental results show that the performance of the proposed mention detection approach is F1 of 80.75%, which is 8% higher than rule-based mention detection, and the performance of the coreference resolution has a CoNLL F1 of 56.67% (mention boundary), which is 7.68% higher than coreference resolution using rule-based mention detection.
