This paper presents the Web service generation system using virtual environments and databases. Main features include that the environments and databases are generated and maintained correspondingly. It means that the virtual environments are changed automatically if the databases are updated, and also that the databases are maintained accordingly as the information about the environments are modified at the scene End users can modify the property of the virtual environments in the scene directly using the VRML edit interface, which visualizes the structures of virtual environments. Each object can be accessed through the VRML editor, its property be modified directly, and the information is updated in the database automatically. Web service pages are maintained accordingly. In addition, we define a texture mapping method based on weighted view interpolation using 2 photo images for a scene. A texture mapping interface Is also provided for end users to generate realistic images themselves.

This paper presents a SFF(shape from focus) algorithm using a new focus measure based on higher order statistics for the exact depth estimation. Since conventional SFF-based 3D depth reconstruction algorithms used SML(sum of modified Laplacian) as the focus measure, their performance is strongly depended on the image characteristics. These are efficient only for the rich texture and well focused images. Therefore, this paper adopts a new focus measure using HOS(higher order statistics), in order to extract the focus value for relatively poor texture and focused images. The initial best focus area map is generated by the measure. Thereafter, the area refinement, thinning, and corner detection methods are successively applied for the extraction of the locally best focus points. Finally, a 3D model from the carefully selected points is reconstructed by Delaunay triangulation.

BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES: While plate waste has been widely investigated in hospitals, there have been minimal studies specific to the texture-modified diet (TMD). This study aims to determine the percentage of plate waste among patients prescribed with TMD and its contributory factors. SUBJECTS/METHODS: This was a single-centre study conducted in the university hospital on three types of TMD (blended diet, mixed porridge, minced diet) during lunch and dinner meals. Weighing method and visual estimation method assisted by digital photograph were adopted in this study. Face to face interview was carried out to investigate on 1) the food/food service quality factors in terms of patients' satisfaction level towards sensorial quality of food and food services provided and 2) the clinical/external factors including appetite, the provision of oral nutrition support, time taking the diet, the need for feeding assistance and the length of hospital stay. RESULTS: The mean percentage of overall plate waste of 95 patients receiving TMD was high (47.5%). Blended diet was identified as the most wasted diet (65%) followed by minced diet (56%) and mixed porridge (35%). Satisfaction level among patients was moderate. Patients on TMD in general had higher satisfaction level on the aspect of food service as compared to food quality. Substantial association between sensorial qualities of food and plate waste were varied according to individual TMD type. A multiple linear regression showed that only the satisfaction level toward the aspects of appearance and variety of foods were the predictors of TMD plate waste (R² = 0.254, P < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS: A significant relationship between the percentage of plate waste and the overall satisfaction level of patients receiving TMD suggests that vigorous strategies are needed to reduce the food waste of TMD which will lead to a better nutritional status and clinical outcomes among the patients.

Packages of different atmospheres (air (control), 100% CO₂, vacuum, and vacuum + O₂ absorber) were prepared for 0.4 kg rice cake (ddukgukdduk) using gas-barrier plastic film and stored at 10℃ for 11 days. The stored products were evaluated in their packages atmosphere, total aerobic bacteria, yeast and molds, texture and sensory quality during storage period. In the air package, the O₂ concentration decreased from initial 21% to 16% on storage 4 days and the CO₂ concentration increased to 23% on storage of 11 days, which resulted from the growth of microorganisms. CO₂ concentration decreased from initial 98% to 36% on storage 11 days in the 100% CO₂ package. It is reasoned that CO₂ was dissolved into the product reducing the volume of the package. Vacuum and vacuum +O₂ absorber package maintained shrunk vacuum condition until 11 days of storage. Total aerobic bacteria count increased significantly in the control package (6.41 log (cfu/g) after 11 days) compared to the 100% CO₂ package (4.96 log (cfu/g) after 11 days). Yeast and molds were 6.66 in control package, 3.43 in 100% CO₂ package, 4.66 in vacuum package, and 3.78 in vacuum + O₂ absorber package after 11 days. There was no significant difference between control and the other treatments for the texture of the stored products. Sensory quality was the worst in control package on the storage of 8 days. All treatment groups except control improved the quality preservation, but vacuum and vacuum + O₂ absorber packages suffered from cracking of the product. Thus 100% CO₂ flushing is suggested as a desired packaging condition.

Highly textured MgO template by ion-beam-assisted deposition(IBAD) was successfully fabricated using a continuous reel-to-reel(R2R) mode. To enlarge the deposition area, the previous IBAD system was modified into the system with 14-pass and five heating zone. Every processing step was carried out using this multi-turn IBAD system. The overall process consists of R2R electropolishing of a hastelloy C276 tape, deposition of $Al_2O_3$ diffusion barrier, $Y_2O_3$ seed layer, IBAD-MgO and homoepi-MgO layer. The IBAD-MgO templates were fabricated using the IBAD system with 216 cm-length deposition zone and 32 cm diameter ion source. The texture of MgO films developed during the IBAD process was monitored by in-situ reflection high energy electron diffraction(RHEED) to optimize the IBAD process. Recently, 100 m long IBAD-MgO tape with in-plane texture of $\Delta{\phi}<10^{\circ}$ was successfully fabricated using the modified IBAD system. In this report, the detailed deposition condition of getting a long length IBAD-MgO template with a good epitaxy is described.

I observed the meaning and the symbolic charaeters about the color and style of clothes appearing at "GER GA JAP BOK GO" written by Kyu Soo Park. The black color of Hyun Eui as a ceremonial dress of man symbolizes Heaven and Virtue. The yellow color of Whang Sang as a ceremonial dress of man symbolizes the Earth and the Impartiality. The blue or black decoration line over white ground of Sim Eui as ordinary dress of man symbolizes also Filial Piety. In woman ordinary upper garment, So Eui, black texture edging with blue line implies the mutual symmetricity with her husband's. Besides, white color texture lining So Eui symbolical to a Devine Nature and Homage implies also the deep concealment of feminine body. The black ground color of child dress "Chi Po Eui" symbolizes Naivety, and the red silk color of it's decoration line, belt and tress ornaments implies the praise of the Virtue & Learning and also "Expel the Evil" of our traditional national characteristics. As described above the meaning and symbolic characters about the color and style of clothes appearing at "GER GA JAP BOK GO" has a very Chinese disposition, but it's author Kyu Soo Park modified somewhat to be in harmony with the real social situation of our Country during that latest stage of Yi Dynasty, because he was one of the prominent pragmatist at that time.

Moving object detection is a fundamental technique in visual surveillance. Robust technique to enhance performance of moving object detection is required for several bad conditions in real external circumtance. In case of sudden illumination change in outdoor condition, many objects are determined as moving object though they are not really moving, but just their illumination changes. This makes the detection result untrustworthy. In this paper, robust moving object detection to sudden illumination change using gaussian mixture background model and new texture information using background from the weighted sum of recent images is proposed.

The three-dimensional orientation distribution function of a conical shaped tungsten liner prepared by the thermo-mechanical forming process was analyzed by 1.525$\AA$ neutrons to carry out the Rietveld refinement. The pole figure data of three reflections, (110)(220) and (211) were measured. The orientation distribution functions for the normal and radial directions were calculated by the WIMV method. The inverse pole figures of the normal and radial directions were obtained from their orientation distribution functions. The Rietveld refinement was performed with the RIETAN program that was slightly modified for the description of preferred orientation effect. We could successfully do the Rietveld refinement of the strongly textured tungsten liner by applying the pole density of each reflection obtained from the inverse pole figure to the calculated diffraction pattern. The correction method of preferred orientation effect based on the inverse pole figures showed a good improvement over the semi-empirical texture correction based on the direct usage of simple empirical functions.

The effect of Ca addition on the microstructure evolution and deformation behavior of AZ31 magnesium alloy produced by hot extrusion was investigated. For this purpose, Ca was added into AZ31 melts to the level of 0.7 and 2.0 wt.% Ca. Then, AZ31 base alloy and Ca modified AZ31 alloys were extruded at $383^{\circ}C$. Ca added alloys showed finer grain size and increased hardness value rather than AZ31 base alloy. After isothermal hot compression, the shape of tested specimen exhibited a noticeable anisotropy due to the crystallographic texture effect. The ratio of major and minor axes of ovality was not directly related to test condition and Ca amount. Flow stress level increases with the increase of Ca addition at temperature below $300^{\circ}C$ because of fine microstructure. However, at high temperature and low strain rate region ($400^{\circ}C$ and $10^{-3}s^{-1}$), reverse tendency was observed since main deformation mechanism changes from dislocation slip to grain boundary sliding or diffusional process at high temperature.

Image identification is the process of checking whether the query image is the transformed version of the specific original image or not. In this paper, image identification method based on feature composition is proposed. Used features include color distance, texture information and average pixel intensity. We extract color characteristics using color distance and texture information by Modified Generalized Symmetry Transform as well as average intensity of each pixel as features. Individual feature is quantized adaptively to be used as bins of histogram. The histogram is normalized according to data type and it is used as the signature in comparing the query image with database images. In matching part, Manhattan distance is used for measuring distance between two signatures. To evaluate the performance of the proposed method, independent test and accuracy test are achieved. In independent test, 60,433 images are used to evaluate the ability of discrimination between different images. And 4,002 original images and its 29 transformed versions are used in accuracy test, which evaluate the ability that the proposed algorithm can find the original image correctly when some transforms was applied in original image. Experiment results show that the proposed identification method has good performance in accuracy test. And the proposed method is very useful in real environment because of its high accuracy and fast matching capacity.
