  • 본 논문에서는 생체인식 수단 중 하나인 손금을 이용한 생체인식에서 Attention U-Net을 기반으로 손금을 추출하는 방법을 제안한다. 손바닥의 손금 중 주요선이라 불리는 생명선, 지능선, 감정선은 거의 변하지 않는 특징을 가지고 있다. 기존의 손금 추출 방법인 비슷한 색상에서 손금 추출, 제한된 Background에서 손금을 추출하는 것이 아닌 피부색과 비슷하거나, 다양한 Background에서 적용될 수 있다. 이를 통해 사용자를 인식하는 생체인식 방법에서 사용할 수 있다. 본 논문에서 사용된 Attention U-Net의 특징을 통해 손금의 Segmentation 영역을 Attention Coefficient를 업데이트하며 효율적으로 학습할 수 있음을 확인하였다.

  • The United States Department of Energy (US DOE) is conducting research and development (R&D) activities under the Used Fuel Disposition Campaign (UFDC) to support storage, transportation, and disposal of used nuclear fuel (UNF) and wastes generated by existing and future nuclear fuel cycles. R&D activities are ongoing at nine national laboratories, and are divided into storage, transportation and disposal. Storage R&D focuses on closing technical gaps related to extended storage of UNF. Transportation R&D focuses on ensuring transportability of UNF following extended storage, and addressing data gaps regarding nuclear fuel integrity, retrievability, and demonstration of subcriticality. Disposal R&D focuses on identifying geologic disposal options and addressing technical challenges for generic disposal concepts in mined repositories in salt, clay/shale, and granitic rocks, and deep borehole disposal. UFDC R&D goals include increasing confidence in the robustness of generic disposal concepts, reducing generic sources of uncertainty that may impact the viability of disposal concepts, and developing science and engineering tools to support the selection, characterization, and licensing of a repository. The US DOE has also initiated activities in the Nuclear Fuel Storage and Transportation (NFST) Planning Project to facilitate the development of an interim storage facility and to support transportation infrastructure in the near term.

  • Over the past centuries, industrialization in developed and developing countries has had a negative impact on global warming, releasing $CO_2$ emissions into the Earth's atmosphere. In recent years, the transportation sector, which emits one-third of total $CO_2$ emissions in the United States, has adapted by implementing a climate change action plan to reduce $CO_2$ emissions. Having an environmental policy might be an essential factor in mitigating the man-made global warming threats to protect public health and the coexistent needs of current and future generations; however, to my best knowledge, no research has been conducted in such a context with appropriate statistical validation process to evaluate the effects of climate change policy on $CO_2$ emission reduction in recent years in the U.S. transportation. The empirical findings using an entity fixed-effects model with valid statistical tests show the positive effects of climate change policy on $CO_2$ emission reduction in a state. With all the 49 states joining the climate change action plans, the U.S. transportation sector is expected to reduce its $CO_2$ emissions by 20.2 MMT per year, and for the next 10 years, the cumulated $CO_2$ emission reduction is projected to reach 202.3 MMT, which is almost equivalent to the $CO_2$ emissions from the transportation sector produced in 2012 by California, the largest $CO_2$ emission state in the nation.

  • This paper reviews both network representation schemes of transportation network and algorithms for findings the shortest path between two points in the network. Two types of network representation schmes for considering U-Turn have been proposed along with some modifications of the vine-based Dijkstra shoretest path algorithm. The traditional Sioux-Fall network has been chosen and modified with the introduction of left-turn prohibitions and U-Turns for the purpose of evaluating the peroformance of two modified algorithms and network representation schemes(NA1 an d NA2 ). This type of modification in both network representation scheme (including network data) and algorithms is not only supposed to be needed for route guidance but supposed to contribute to finding more realistic path and estimating more accurate traffic voulume thorughout the entire network.

  • To study the effects of corner braces on fatigue performance of the U-rib and roof weld in steel bridge decks, the fatigue experiment was carried out to compare characteristics of the crack shape with and without corner braces. The improvement of fatigue life and stress variation after setting corner braces were also analysed. Different parameters of corner brace sizes, arrangements, and detail types were considered in the FEM models to obtain stress distribution and variation at the weld. Furthermore, enhancement of the fatigue performance by corner braces was evaluated. The results demonstrated that the corner brace could improve the fatigue life of the U-rib and roof weld, which exerted even no influence on the crack shape. Moreover, stress of the roof weld was decreased and the crack position was transferred from the root weld to U-rib and corner brace weld. It was suggested no weld scallop should be drilled on the corner brace. A transverse rib with lower height which was set between U-ribs was favourable for improvement of fatigue performance.

  • 본 논문에서는 u-TSN 서비스 제공을 위한 통신모듈의 구현과 성능 평가를 통해 u-TSN 서비스와 지능형 교통 시스템 및 인포테인먼트의 구현 가능성을 확인한다. 통신모듈은 IEEE 802.11a와 11g 기반으로 구현되었고 차량장치와 노변장치에 이용된다. 실제 도로환경에서 개발된 시스템은 최대 약 15Mbps, 원거리 고속 이동상황에서 10Mbps의 데이터 전송율을 나타내었다. 이는 u-TSN 서비스 중 교통흐름 제어를 위한 통신용량을 충분히 수용할 수 있는 수준이다.
