Clipart is artificial visual contents that are created using various tools such as Illustrator to highlight some information. Here, the style of the clipart plays a critical role in determining how it looks. However, previous studies on clipart are focused only on the object recognition [16], segmentation, and retrieval of clipart images using hand-craft image features. Recently, some clipart classification researches based on the style similarity using CNN have been proposed, however, they have used different CNN-models and experimented with different benchmark dataset so that it is very hard to compare their performances. This paper presents an experimental analysis of the clipart classification based on the style similarity with two well-known CNN-models (Inception Resnet V2 [13] and VGG-16 [14] and transfers learning with the same benchmark dataset (Microsoft Style Dataset 3.6K). From this experiment, we find out that the accuracy of Inception Resnet V2 is better than VGG for clipart style classification because of its deep nature and convolution map with various sizes in parallel. We also find out that the end-to-end training can improve the accuracy more than 20% in both CNN models.

Movement technique is comprised of the movement status of the circulation differentiation rate (CDR) and rotation differentiation rate (RDR) on the shiver movement form. Condition of the differentiation rate by the shiver movement form is to be modified the teetering movement system. As to fix the movement of signal on the material of body, we compared a shiver value of the circulation differentiation rate on the circulation state. The concept of rotation differentiation rate was identified the reference of rotation differentiation signal and rotation differentiation signal by the rotation state. For detecting a alteration of the CDR-RDR of the maximum and average in terms of the movement form, and shiver movement value that was a shiver value of the top alteration of the Top-фMAX-AVG with 12.80±1.27 units, that was a shiver value of the peripheral alteration of the Per-фMAX-AVG with 4.38±1.15 units, that was a shiver value of the limbus alteration of the Lim-фMAX-AVG with 1.65±0.25 units, that was a shiver value of the center alteration of the Cen-фMAX-AVG with 0.25±0.01 units. The teetering movement will be to assess at the ability of the movement form for the control degree of differentiation rate on the CDR-RDR that was shown the circulation and rotation form by the differentiation rate system. Teetering differentiation system was modified of a form by the special movement and was included a shiver data of teetering movement rate.

In this paper, an contemplate the direction for Usable Security in IT security and User Experience. To evaluate how the user interface is convenient to use, we examine the components such as the property, learnable property, memory simplicity, faults and satisfaction level. By considering for the security, we should bring positive effects on the user experience. By emphasizing usability and security at the same time, we should increase the satisfaction level of the user experience and then produce the valuable experience through participation, use and observation. The positive user experience is the important task for the software engineering, business administration and others., and this will result satisfaction of the users, brand trust, and success in the market. On the other hand, for the negative user experience, the users cannot achieve their desired goal and therefore, are unsatisfied due to emotional, rational and economic inconvenience. Due to this, we should try to maintain a certain level of usability and security of the system in IT security and User Experience.

In this paper, we propose an automatic segmentation method of left and right heart in computed tomography angiography (CTA) using separating energy function. First, we smooth the images by applying anisotropic diffusion filter to remove noise. Then, the volume of interest (VOI) is detected by using k-means clustering. Finally, we extract the left and right heart with separating energy function which we proposed to split the heart. We tested our method in ten CT images and they were obtained from a different patient. For the evaluation of the computational performance of the proposed method, we measured the total processing time. The average of total processing time, from first step to third step, was 14.39±1.17 s. We expect for our method to be used in cardiac diagnosis for cardiologist.

Sensor Networks (WSNs) can be defined as a self-configured and infrastructure- less wireless networks to monitor physical or environmental conditions, such as temperature, sound, vibration, pressure, motion or pollutants and to cooperatively pass their data through the network to a main location or base-station where the data can be observed and analyzed. Typically a wireless sensor network contains hundreds of thousands of sensor nodes. The sensor nodes can communicate among themselves using radio signals. A wireless sensor node is equipped with sensing and computing devices, radio transceivers and power components. The individual nodes in a wireless sensor network (WSN) are inherently resource constrained: they have limited processing speed, storage capacity, communication bandwidth and limited-battery power. At present time, most of the research on WSNs has concentrated on the design of energy- and computationally efficient algorithms and protocols In order to extend the network life-time, in this paper we are looking into a routing protocol, especially LEACH and LEACH-related protocol. LEACH protocol is a representative routing protocol and improves overall network energy efficiency by allowing all nodes to be selected to the cluster head evenly once in a periodic manner. In LEACH, in case of movement of sensor nodes, there is a problem that the data transmission success rate decreases. In order to overcome LEACH’s nodes movements, LEACH-Mobile protocol had proposed. But energy consumption increased because it consumes more energy to recognize which nodes moves and re-transfer data. In this paper we propose the new routing protocol considering nodes’ mobility. In order to simulate the proposed protocol, we make a scenario, nodes’ movements randomly and compared with the LEACH-Mobile protocol.

To understand whether Falling, which is one of the causes of injuries, occurs, various behavior recognition research is proceeding. However, in most research recognize only the fact that Falling has occurred and provide the service. As well as the occurrence of the Falling, the risk varies greatly based on the type of Falling and the situation before and after the Falling. Therefore, when Falling occurs, it is necessary to infer the user's current situation and provide appropriate services. In this paper, we propose to base on Fog Computing and Cloud Computing to design Context-aware System using analysis of behavior data and process sensor data in real-time. This system solved the problem of increase latency and server overload due to large capacity sensor data.

This paper deals with the improvement of cluster head selection method in L-SEP for heterogeneous nodes among hierarchical routing protocols of wireless sensor network. Wireless sensor networks are classified into homogeneous and heterogeneous network. In heterogeneous network, SEP, L-SEP are mainly used because cluster head selection probability is different depending on node type. But, since protocol based on SEP has different cluster head selection probabilities depending on the node type, clusters that transmit data inefficiently can be formed. to improve this, it is necessary to select the cluster head that minimizes the transmission distance of member node and the cluster head. Therefore, we propose a protocol that improve the cluster head selection method.

Cloud computing has evolved into a core computing infrastructure for the internet that encompasses content, as well as communications, applications and commerce. By providing powerful computing and communications capabilities in the palm of the hand everywhere with a variety of smart devices, mobile applications such as virtual reality, sensing and navigation have emerged and radically changed the patterns people live. The data that is generated is getting bigger. Cloud computing, on the other hand, has problems with system load and speed due to the collection, processing and control of remote data. To solve this problem, fog computing has been proposed in which data is collected and processed at an edge. In this paper, we propose a system that dynamically selects a fog server that acts as a cloud in the edge. It serves as a mediator in the cloud, and provides information on the services and systems belonging to the cloud to the mobile device so that the mobile device can act as a fog. When the role of the fog system is complete, we provide it to the cloud to virtualize the fog. The heterogeneous problem of data of mobile nodes can be solved by using mDBaaS (Mobile DataBase as a Service) and we propose a system design method for this.
