This study was conducted to compare the quality of the brown rice (BR) and milled rice (MR) during storage. To assess quality, BR and MR were analysed by their fat acidity and flavor pattern using a SMart Nose$^{(R)}$. BR was stored for 30 days at $30^{\circ}C$, and analysed after 5, 15, 20, and 30 days of storage. MR produced in 2005, 2009, and 2010 were also tested. The fat acidity of both rice groups was increased with extended storage and the fat acidity of BR was more rapidly increased than that of MR in general. The flavor patterns from the SMart Nose$^{(R)}$ results were analyzed by the principal component analysis (PCA). The major groups of atomic mass unit (amu) for good discrimination contribution were from 41 to 85 amus. The PCA1 and PCA2 of BR were 95.64% and 2.78%, respectively when the samples were categorized by storage period. The PCA1 and PCA2 of MR were 81.18% and 13.85%, respectively when the samples were compared by production year. Both rice groups could be practically differentiated into flavor patterns by volatile properties for storage period. With regard to the correlation between fat acidity and flavor pattern, we could find that increasing storage period increased fat acidity value and changed flavor pattern from SMart Nose$^{(R)}$. Accordingly, SMart Nose$^{(R)}$ could be successfully used for easy screening and quality evaluation of stored rice.

The IEEE 1451.4 standards defines an architectural model for interfacing smart transducers for sensors & actuators. This standard allows analogue transducers to communicate their identification and calibration data in a digital format. A digital format is called TEDS(transducer electronic data sheet). However, the standard template of IEEE 1451.4 TEDS do not supports gas sensors to use in electronic nose system, such as array sensors. In this paper, a solution to standardize sensors for electronic nose systems is presented.

This paper proposes a tongue and its direction recognition algorithm which compares and estimates pixel distribution in the mouth area. As the size of smart phones grows, facial gesture control technology for a smart phone is required. Firstly, the nose area is detected and the mouth area is detected based on the ratio of the nose to mouth. After detecting the mouth area, it is divided by a pattern of grid and the distribution of pixels having the similar color to the tongue is tested for each segment. The recognition rate was nearly 80% in the experiments performed with five researchers among our laboratory members.

We have investigated the effect of lard fraction extracted with supercritical carbon dioxide (SC-$CO_2$) on the flavor enhancement of maillard reaction product (MRP) based meat flavors. MRP based meat flavors were prepared with low glutamic acid (Glu) hydrolyzed wheat gluten (NaCl concentration: 7.61%(w/v)), ribose, cysteine, garlic juice powder, protease-digested Lentinus edodes powder and lard fractions extracted with SC-$CO_2$. Lard was extracted with SC-$CO_2$ at each of three temperatures (40, 60, and $80^{\circ}C$) and at each of four pressures (30, 40, 50, and 60 MPa). Obtained lard SC-$CO_2$ fractions and MRP based meat flavors with those fractions were analyzed for their total yield, aroma pattern by SMart nose system, and sensorial properties. The extraction yield had no difference as temperature increased from $40^{\circ}C$ to $60^{\circ}C$ and even decreased at $80^{\circ}C$. However, increase in pressure level at $40^{\circ}C$ drastically increased the extraction yield. The aroma patterns of raw lard and lard SC-$CO_2$ fractions with 30 MPa were significantly discriminated from those of SC-$CO_2$ lard fractions extracted with higher pressure by SMart nose system. Aroma pattern of MRP based meat flavors with higher pressure extracted lard fractions also showed significant difference through pattern analysis by the SMart nose system. The MRP based meat flavor with lard SC-$CO_2$ fractions at 50 and 60 MPa were described as less sulfuric, less pungent, and more balanced in roasted meat and sweet attributes from sensory evaluation.

In this paper, we propose 3-factor mobile banking authentication scheme applied to face recognition techniques with existing certificate and OTP. An image of the user's face is captured by smart phone camera and its brightness processing of the contour of a face and background by n of X and Y points. Then, distance between the point of eyes, nose and mouth from captured user's face are compared with stored facial features. When the compared results corresponding to the data that stored in a face recognition DB, the user is authenticated.

The concept of structural vibration control is to absorb vibration energy of the structure by introducing auxiliary devices. Various types of structural vibration control theories and devices have been recently developed and introduced into mechanical systems. One of such devices is damper employing controllable fluids such as ElectroRheological (ER) or MagnetoRheological (MR) fluids. MagnetoRheological (MR) materials are suspensions of fine magnetizable ferromagnetic particles in a non-magnetic medium exhibiting controllable rheological behaviour in the presence of an applied magnetic field. This paper presents the modelling of an MRfluid damper. The damper model is developed based on Newtonian shear flow and Bingham plastic shear flow models. The geometric parameters are varied to get the optimised damper characteristics. The numerical analysis is carried out to estimate the damping coefficient and damping force. The analytical results are compared with the experimental results. The results confirm that MR damper is one of the most promising new semi-active devices for structural vibration control.

High-speed train of push-pull type called as G7 train has been developed and chosen as the model of KTX-II which will be operated on Honam Line nexr year. However, the EMU-type high-speed train appeared to be the recent trend that foreign markets have shown. Also, in the near future, a great number of new train sets are needed to accommodate the increased passengers in our country. Thus, development of the high-speed EMU was decided, planned, and started. In the development, included were almost all fundamental key technologies such as noise and vibration reduction in a passenger cabin, running characteristics, aerodynamic analysis, crashworthiness evaluation, EMI/EMC analysis, design of the cooling system for the propulsion control system, enhanced performance of transformer and switching converters, synchronous traction motor with permanent magnets, new design of front nose and ergonomic interiors, application of advanced information technology(IT) and smart sensors and the cost reduction of construction of railway bridges, etc. Each key technologies are carried out as sub-project independently but under the supervision of a project. The project will develop the high advanced level of technologies and provide necessary know-why's and support the team in charge of the development of the high-speed EMU, Hyundai Rotem Co. Ltd. The high-speed EMU will be successfully developed with the support of the project.

Accurate diagnosis of movement disorders is important for providing right patient care at right time. In general, assessment of motor impairment relies on clinical ratings conducted by experienced clinicians. However, this may introduce subjective opinions into scoring the severity of motor impairment. Digital devices such as table PC and smart band with accelerometer can be used for more accurate and objective assessment and possibly helpful for clinicians to make right decision of patient's states. In this study, we introduce quantification algorithms of motor impairment which uses the digital data acquired during four clinical motor tests (Line drawing, Spiral drawing, Nose to finger and Hand flip tests). The step by step procedure of quantifying metrics (Tremor Frequency, Tremor Magnitude, Error Distance, Time, Velocity, Count and Period) are provided with flowchart. The effectiveness of the proposed algorithm is presented with the result from simulated data (normal, normal with tremor and slowness, poor with tremor, poor with tremor and slowness).
