2007년 이후 세계적으로 해적 사건이 증가하고 있으며, 최근에는 기니만 해역을 포함하여 서아프리카 해역이 세계에서 가장 위험한 해역으로 대두되고 있다. 한국 정부에서는 우리 선원과 선박의 해적피해를 예방하기 2021년 8월 17일 「해적피해예방법」을 개정 하여 해적 고위험해역 및 위험해역을 새롭게 정의하고, 고위험해역에 선박의 진입제한 근거를 마련하였다. 본 연구의 목적은 개정 법률에 따라 정부에서 고시해야 할 해적 위험해역 및 고위험해역 설정 방안을 검토하여 제시하는 것이다. 본 연구에서는 해적사고 동향, 국제적 고위험해역 설정 현황 및 해적퇴치에 관한 국제적 대응 현황을 조사 및 분석하여 고위험해역 등을 설정시 고려해야 할 사항을 도출하고 이를 바탕으로 위험해역과 고위험해역의 지리적 범위를 제시하였다. 본 연구의 결과로 제시된 해적 고위험해역 등에 관한 자료는 해적피 해 예방에 관한 정부의 정책 개발뿐만 아니라 학술적 기초자료도 활용될 수 있을 것으로 기대한다.

디지털 전환(digital transformation)은 디짓화(digitisation)와 디지털화(digitalisation) 의 경제적 및 사회적 효과를 의미한다. 디지털 전환은 경제/사회 발전 및 삶의 편의성을 향상 시키는 유용한 도구로 작용하지만 부정적 영향(개인정보 오남용, 윤리문제 야기, 사회적 격 차 심화 등)을 미칠 수도 있는 양면성을 보유하고 있다. 한편 정부는 산업 경쟁력 및 기술 패 권 확보 등을 위하여 디지털 전환 촉진정책은 적극적으로 추진하고 있는 반면, 디지털 전환 관련 위험이슈에 대한 이해와 이를 방지할 수 있는 정책 추진에는 상대적으로 소극적인 상황 이다. 이에 본 연구는 디지털 전환이 초래할 수 있는 미래사회 위험이슈를 Embedded Topic Modeling 방법론 기반의 언론기사 빅데이터 정량분석으로 체계화 및 구체화하고, 정책적 대 응 방향을 제시하였다. 이를 위하여 먼저 주요국의 디지털 전환 역기능 세부 이슈들을 규명 하였다. 다음으로 디지털 전환의 핵심 기술인 인공지능을 중심으로 주요국과 한국의 디지털 전환 역기능 세부이슈를 구체화하고, 비교분석하였다. 아울러 분석결과들을 종합하여 향후 정부의 디지털 전환 역기능 대응 정책 수립 방향을 제시하였다. 분석 결과에 근거한 정책적 함의는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 디지털 전환의 역기능은 기술 분야에만 한정되어 나타나지 않고 국가안보 및 사회 전반에 영향을 미치기 때문에 정부는 디지털 전환의 순기능 촉진뿐만 아니 라 역기능 대응을 위한 정책도 마련해야 한다. 둘째, 디지털 전환의 미래사회 위험 세부이슈 들은 국가에 따라 상이하게 나타나므로 정부는 국가적/사회적 맥락을 고려하여 디지털 전환 역기능 대응 정책을 수립해야 한다. 마지막으로 정부는 이해관계자들의 혼선을 최소화할 수 있도록 디지털 전환 역기능 대응 정책의 큰 방향을 설정하고, 실효성 있는 정책 수단을 마련 해야 한다.

With the rapid development of artificial intelligence, the use of artificial intelligence in the field of employment, especially in recruitment, is gradually increasing. Artificial intelligence judges applications for employment of applicants and analyzes interview videos to determine emotional intelligence, communication skills, cognitive ability, and problem-solving ability. However, there is a risk of discrimination in evaluating humans in hiring by these automated decisions made by artificial intelligence. Discrimination in hiring according to gender, race, or disability is prohibited by various laws such as the Constitution, Labor Standards Act, Framework Act On Employment Policy, and Employment Security Act in Korea. In particular, the Act On The Prohibition Of Discrimination Against Persons With Disabilities, Remedy Against Infringement Of Their Rights and the Act On The Employment Promotion And Vocational Rehabilitation Of Persons With Disabilities require special protection for people with disabilities. Discrimination against persons with disabilities can be divided into direct discrimination against persons with disabilities without justifiable grounds, and indirect discrimination that results in disadvantageous consequences for persons with disabilities by applying standards that do not take disabilities into account even though they are not formally treated unfavorable. When hiring according to automated decision-making, (i) intentional discrimination that intentionally sets applicants with elements of the disablity to be excluded from recruitment, (ii) making an automated decision not to hire the disabled through the existing data which prejudice against the disabled is already reflected, and (iii) if the existing data lacks or does not have information on the disabled, the data itself lacks representativeness, leading to distorted decisions, there is a risk that will be judged as discrimination for the disabled. In Korea, the Credit Information Use And Protection Act has proposed the definition of automated evaluation for owner of credit information and protection standards, but it is limited to the protection of credit information, and a recent amendment of the Personal Information Protection Act suggests protection measures from decisions made by automated systems, but it is criticized for the scope of protection being reduced than that of the GDPR. In addition, special protection measures for workers, such as the ILO’s Code of Practice for Protection of Workers’ Personal Data, are not mentioned separately, so it is necessary to devise legal protection measures in the hiring process according to automated decision-making of disabled workers.

본 연구는 머신러닝 기법을 토대로 15개 환경 변수를 활용하여 소나무재선충병의 위험지역 분포를 예측하였다. 연구는 최대 엔트로피 모델을 머신러닝 기법으로 활용하였고, 연구 지역은 경주이며 연구 기간은 2018∼2020년이다. 모델의 평가에는 AUC(area under the curve)를 이용하였다. 연구 지역에서 소나무재선충병의 감염목 핵심 분포 지역은 2018년 대비 2019년과 2020년에 각각 2.5배와 4.7배 확대되었다. 소나무재선충병의 감염목 분포 추정 모델의 AUC는 모든 해에 최소 0.86 이상이었다. 모델에서 가장 중요한 변수는 직전 해의 감염목 근접도 이었다. 지형과 도로와의 인접성, 목조건물 인접성, 5월 평균 기온도 중요한 변수이었다. 인간 활동과 매개충의 생장 환경이 소나무재선충병의 공간적 분포에 중요한 역할을 한다는 것을 의미한다. 나아가 연구의 결과는 감염목 분포 정보의 지속적인 구축과 공유가 소나무재선충병 예방을 위한 정책과 연구에 중요하다는 것을 시사한다.

Using the frequency-based decomposition, I decompose the consumption growth to explain well-known patterns of stock returns in the Korean market. To be more specific, the consumption growth is decomposed by its half-life of shocks. The component over four years of half-life is called the business-cycle consumption component, and the components with half-lives under four years are short-run components. I compute the long-run and short-run components of stock excess returns as well and use component- by-component sensitivities to price stock portfolios. As a result, the business-cycle consumption risk with half-life of over four years is useful in explaining the cross-section of size-book-to-market portfolios and size-momentum portfolios in the Korean stock market. The short-run components have their own pricing abilities with mixed direction, so that the restricted one short-term factor model is rejected. The explanatory power with short- and long-run components is comparable to that of the Fama-French three-factor model. The components with one- to four-year half-lives are also helpful in explaining the returns. The results about the long-run components emphasize the importance of long-run component in consumption growth to explain the asset returns.

Military aircraft R&D projects require large-scale investment in cost and time, and involve a complex coordination process in decision-making. The R&D project manager should determine the development management priorities as accurately as possible and focus on R&D capabilities, thereby reducing the risks of the aircraft R&D project. To this end, this study aims to reduce R&D risk by prioritizing cost, schedule, and performance, which are basic management factors used in R&D project management in defense project management regulations. Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) is applied using a questionnaire for managers in charge of aviation R&D under the Defense Acquisition Program Administration. As a primary result, the importance of the factors that the aircraft R&D project manager should consider was derived in the order of performance, cost, and schedule, and the priorities of performance and cost in the lower layer were also identified. In addition, in order to provide practical risk management measures to aircraft R&D project managers, the results of analyzing 28 cases of US National Transportation Safety Board accidents were compared and analyzed with the AHP analysis results, and management measures suitable for the situation were specified.

In this study, dual drainage system based runoff model was established for W-drainage area in G-si, and considering the various rainfall characteristics determined using Huff and Mononobe methods, the degree of flooding in the target area was analyzed and the risk was compared and analyzed through the risk matrix method. As a result, the Monobe method compared to the Huff method was analyzed to be suitable analysis for flooding of recent heavy rain, and the validity of the dynamic risk assessment considering the weight of the occurrence probability as the return period was verified through the risk matrix-based analysis. However, since the definition and estimating criteria of the flood risk matrix proposed in this study are based on the return period for extreme rainfall and the depth of flooding according to the results of applying the dual drainage model, there is a limitation in that it is difficult to consider the main factors which are direct impact on inland flooding such as city maintenance and life protection functions. In the future, if various factors affecting inland flood damage are reflected in addition to the amount of flood damage, the flood risk matrix concept proposed in this study can be used as basic information for preparation and prevention of inland flooding, as well as it is judged that it can be considered as a major evaluation item in the selection of the priority management area for sewage maintenance for countermeasures against inland flooding.
