Recently, information technology has been developed rapidly over than everyone thinks. The computer technology with hardware and software development of artificial intelligent and machine learning would be more interested in the interactive computer technology. In this paper, we propose a new paradigm to implement the system which recognizes human’s emotion and reacts with the emotion, and this will be human interactive and applied in every information technical field. This system implements an intelligent system that analyzes human’s faces following with the recognition of emotion, which will be the intelligent system that reacts in accordance with the emotion. The proposed real-time intelligent system will develop the system that recognizes human’s emotion, with the emotion, and reacts the actions in the field of marketing of enterprises, intelligent games, and intelligent robots.

Recently, application content which is applied by gamification elements has been enhanced. However, gamification elements has not been strongly applied in the life-logging application. Because, this application is not focused on fun, but on the visualization of the data and the records of the user's external or internal information. Therefore, the purpose of this paper is to establish the gamification elements for 'life-logging' service. To do this, the gamification elements were extracted and classified by surveys, exploratory factor analysis and confirmatory factor analysis. As a result, the gamification elements for life-logging applications are formed by three factors; ‘Acting’, ‘Achievement’, and ‘Social’. As the established gamification elements are effectively applied to life-logging applications, it is expected to be a basis for helping to provide enjoyable behavior and usability beyond the common function of user record.

The current study investigated the mediating effect of positive internet game expectancy on the relationship between behavioral activation system and internet game addiction to confirm whether the acquired preparedness model which has been verified in substance addiction field could be applied to internet game addiction field, then tested wether the effect is moderated by game refusal self-efficacy. 349 gamers aged 13 above participated this study. The results showed that the behavioral activation system boosted the positive game expectancy and then increased the risk of internet game addiction, but the effect was buffered by game refusal self-efficacy. Focused on the results, therapeutic suggestions about current study were discussed.

According to the growth of internet technology, people can experience the various internet services. Especially, SNS(Social Network Service) is an online platform that is used by people to build social networks or social relations with other people who share personal interests, activities or real-life connections using their photos. In this paper, we propose a new photomosaic method that considers social network information. The proposed algorithm to make photomosaic using photos belonging to users who were connected to each other in SNS. In order to realized this, matching function is proposed for considering relationship of users who had close connections to the user, and who were annotated in up-loaded image.

The objective of this study was to compare the differences between males and females in the mediating effects of academic failure tolerance on the impact of self-efficacy on game addiction among adolescents. The results are summarized as follows. First, in both men and women, self-regulation, one of sub-variables of self-efficacy, had negative effects on game addiction. Second, in men, both emotion and behavior had negative effects on game addiction, while, in women, only behaviour did so. Third, among sub-variables of self-efficacy, in males, self-regulation and task difficulty had positive effects on academic failure tolerance, while, in women, self-regulation, confidence, and task difficulty did so. Fourth, testing the mediating role of academic failure tolerance in the effect of self-efficacy on game addiction showed that there was a partial mediating effect among males, while there was a perfect mediating effect among females. All this implies that there is a need to develop programs that help students maintain positive emotions and behaviors even after they have experienced academic failure, considering the importance of academic failure tolerance for students.

현행법은 폭력성⋅선정성 등으로부터의 청소 년을 보호하고 사행적인 게임물의 유통을 통제하 고자, 국내에 유통되는 게임물에 대해 사전 등급 분류를 받도록 하고 있다. 하지만 게임 환경의 변 화로 IPTV, 가상현실기기 등 기존의 분류 유형에 속하지 않는 새로운 플랫폼이 등장하자 기존의 법 률 체계를 적용하기 어려워졌다. 이에 2016년 5 월 29일 개정되어 2017년 1월 1일 시행되는 ｢게 임산업진흥에 관한 법률｣은 게임물 자체등급분류 제도를 시행하기로 정했다. 이에 본 연구는 게임 물 자체등급분류제가 안착하기 위해 필요한 사후 관리시스템을 설계하는 데 기여하고자, 관련법들 과 유사한 사례를 검토한다. 먼저 게임물 등급분류 제도의 운영 현황을 살 피고, 이번 개정법에 의해 어떤 변화가 생기는지 정리한다. 정리된 내용을 바탕으로 개정법상 사후 관리시스템이 겪을 것으로 예상되는 문제를 진단한다. 그리고 그 문제를 해결하기 위해 두 종류의 유사한 경우를 살핀다. 첫 번째로 해외에서 게임물 자체등급분류제가 운영되는 양상을 알아본다. 미국의 ERSB, 유럽의 PEGI, 일본의 CERO가 운영되는 상황을 참고하 여, 개정법상 사후관리시스템이 원활히 운영되는 데 도움이 될 사항들을 검토한다. 다음으로 이미 방송사가 자체적으로 등급분류한 바를 사후적으 로 관리하고 있던 방송통신심위원회의 경우를 본 다. 방송심의규정의 근거와 구성을 살핀 후, 이에 근거해 운영되는 사후관리시스템에 대한 학계의 비판과 대안을 검토한다. 그리고 그중 게임물 사 후관리시스템 운영에 참고할 사항들을 정리한다. 이상의 연구를 통해 게임물 자체등급분류제 시 행 시 겪을 문제를 진단하고 대안을 제기한다. 또 그 대안이 유효하게 실행되기 위해 필요한 후속 연구도 제시한다

In most RPG games, gameplay tends to be monotonous due to fixed character skills. This paper proposes a RPG game implementation technique which allows players' skill customization for their own gameplay. Players are allowed to customize their preferred game skills at the beginning of gameplay. We also propose a technique to guarantee game balancing by prohibiting certain skills from dominating gameplay. We implemented the proposed skill customization method together with a simple RPG game testbed. We tested a variety of player-defined skills and confirmed the method provides good game balancing during gameplay. Due to the voluntary and impromptu skill customization, a wide variety of strategy is possible even at the single game stage, which reduces boredom at the repetitive gameplay.

올해 7월, 미국 나이언틱사가 출시한 증강현실 (Augmented Reality, 이하 AR) 게임 ‘포켓몬 고’의 인기로 AR 기술을 접목한 게임에 대한 관 심도 폭증했다. 게임 유저가 AR 기기를 통해, 마 치 현실에 정말 살고 있는 듯이, 디지털 객체들을 시야에 구현하기 위한 과정에서, 현실 정보가 수집, 교환, 재가공 되는 모습을 실시간으로 체험하며 게임을 즐기는 것이 기존 VR 게임과 다른 점이다. 하지만 증강현실 게임과 관련된 법적 문제 분석 및 이에 대한 대비 규제책 마련은 현재로선 다소 부족한 편이다. AR 게임이 게임 콘텐츠의 지적재산권 외에, 기존의 가상 게임 구현 및 게임 유저의 플레이 과정에선 직접적으로 쓰이지 않았던 지리적 정보⋅게임 유저의 개인 정보와 같은, 이미 존재하는 현실의 데이터를 수집⋅가공⋅이용⋅배포하기 때문이다. AR 게임 관련, 이미 발생했거나 발생이 예상되는 문제들은 모두 유저들이 직접 현실에서 AR 게임의 기술과 게임 시스템을 구현하는 과정에서 문제가 발생한다. 이를 가상 공간에서 빚어진 문제로 볼지, 현실 공간에서 빚어진 문제로 다룰지에 대해 복잡한 논의가 대두될 수도 있다. 현재 가상 공간과 현실 공간을 규제하는데 우선적으로 적용하는 법리가 암묵적으로 고정 분류 되어있는 바, 앞으로는 기존의 게임 형태 혹은 공 간의 현실성을 초월해, 발생한 결과 자체의 현실적 구현 정도에 따라, 그에 맞는 법이나 규제를 적 용해야할 것으로 여겨진다. 그리고 이러한 복합적인 고려과정은 종국적으로는 규제 판단 및 적용 과정을 단순화시켜, 유저가 다양한 상황에도 직접 손쉽게 일괄적으로 사안을 해결할 수 있는 단순화된 보호 체계를 마련하는 경향이 대두되는데도 기여할 것으로 여겨진다.

Paper-folding is an educational activity to enhance a creativity of children because a paper-folding game is to create various 2D or 3D shapes by folding a plane square paper with both hands. However, since previous paper-folding games provide folding designs as books, children may need a guidance of a teacher or may degrade interest. In addition, existing computer-based games have simple interfaces with one or two fingers and thus they are difficult to have direct influence on children's physical development and creativity enhancement. In this paper, we propose a computer-based paper-folding game which children fold a real paper with two hands and a computer with a camera gives various feedback. The proposed game is developed based on the CAI concept and contains elements of the Keller's ARCS theory.

All games support the meaningful play, and each mechanism producing meaning is various. In mobile role-playing game, automation of in-game action standardizes movements of avatars and diversify combat challenges. Thereby players reinforce their avatars and make various repertoires so as to cope with different contents. Players predict the result of their own actions based on short-term, juicy feedbacks. In conclusion, mobile role-playing game has 'strategy' as its action mode while the unit time required for meaningful play is highly reduced. This analysis is significant in the sense that it was the first step toward integrated change of game play experiences.

Omni-directional high dynamic range images are used in image-based lighting or environment mapping. In game development environment high dynamic images can be used with shader assets. Recently various 360 VR camera systems are produced which can capture omni-directional images or video images without extra image stitching. In game development environment, shader assets or assets for shaders can be made along very time-consuming complex processes. In this paper, we proposed more simple and autonomous conversion system which can use directly in Unity.

Recently Korea has shown continuous growth in game, character and animation contents industry. To keep this trend in the future, we need to nurture contents related human resources. One of the good methods to nurture those quality resources is to find potential resources in early times. To do this we need to know their potentiality. To evaluate such potentiality of these candidates, we performed short-term education and evaluated contents functional production capabilities of two groups such as 27 Grade 5 students from 17 schools and 5 Grade 6 students from 5 schools in Nowon-gu, Seoul. With the same evaluation methods, they showed 100 and 95 out of 100. In Contents functional production, two groups showed 4.29 and 3.96 respectively. Therefore, we can contribute contents industry and national competitiveness if we recruit and nurture them in early times.

In this paper, it suggests how to input what it needs under gesture based which is able to put its text 3 times faster than an existing way with voice based by a person who is a visually impaired person with a smart device that is flat display without a physical button. The suggesting way is a text input method based on gesture that after setting the touch display of the smart phone to 8 directions, then, it inputs number, English/Korean tests and special characters with initial location and central point of input texts following drag motion of the users or it controls and processes all applications in the smart devices naturally. It tries to prove efficiency of this method through real test to the visually impaired.

GSA (Gaming Standards Association)’s S2S (System to System) standard provides harmonizing protocol between any gaming and non-gaming host systems in the casino back office and Casino business area. Its technical details and implementation is rarely open to the academy and public. This paper discuss our ongoing implementation of S2S protocol engine and systems, which is, to our knowledge, the first case in Korea. Our design leverages open source technologies such as Linux, Python, Django, Tornado, JQuery, and lxml. Describing the architecture and an application scenarios of ‘PlayerInfo’ class, we demonstrate how the open source technology can be utilized in the S2S system design.

CIn this paper, I discuss the minimization of the user interface of the interactive fairy tale content based on BCI and Motion Sensing Technology. For this reason, 3 version intervention interfaces of the interactive fairy tale content with Microsoft's Kinect as a non-contact motion sensing device and NeuroSky's MindWave EEG biosensor device as a BCI interface were produced and experimented. The experiments have been accomplished for four children of the first or the second graders by examining three different interactive intervention interfaces: 1) attention indicator by sparkling light; 2) the attention indicator plus behavior instructions; and 3) an indication bar for the attention level plus behavior instructions. As a result of this experimental observations, it shows that the visualized interface such as icons helps the participating children communicate with the fairy tale content system. In addition, they do communicate well without the visualized graphical interfaces when they are demanded by the realistic actions. Whereas, some communication problems have been found neither the realistic actions are requested nor the attention indicators are provided definitely.

Communication using SNS(Social Network Service) with others has become the trend through quantified-self - users’ explicit and implicit data are measured, recorded and automatically stored- as life-logging application industry has been grown. As the life-logging application is focused on recording and sharing the data, regular and simple interactive functions are used rather than dynamic and tense features. The game elements are used popularly in the mobile applications. Also, funware factors have begun to be applied in life-logging application. This paper intends to analyze for 20 life-logging applications with sorting collection, point, feedback, exchanges, customization in funware factors. The result of this analysis is that ‘Point’ factor is far better than others, and ‘Exchanges’ and ‘Customization’ factor common in the funware. Specially, the data report in the ‘Point’ factor shows the result visually by analyzing the data based on characteristics of life-logging application. However, if Exchanges and Customization factor are used in application development and design, the value of life-logging concept is more increased. Therefore, attempts which is not a simple function as users’records but enjoyable actions are expected in design of life-logging application that is consistently rising.

Internet has become a crucial factor affecting children’s lives. Accordingly, researchers are paying attention to patterns and predictors of Internet use among children. However, little research exists on the relationship between family functioning and Internet use. In response to this gap, this study examines the association between family functioning and Internet use among school-aged children. As primary analyses, structural equation modeling was employed and gender differences were examined. The findings highlight the importance of family functioning on Internet use among school-aged children. Lower levels of family functioning led to more time using the Internet and was mediated by the purposes of Internet usage. The findings suggest that parental and community efforts to improve family functioning may prevent Internet overuse or misuse among school-aged children. Also, there is a need to consider gender differences regarding Internet use within the context of policy-making.

This research is the preliminary study for development of narrative contents for improving reading skills and behavior controlling capabilities of children with ADHD. Microsoft's Kinect, a non-contact motion sensing device, and NeuroSky's MindWave, a BCI device, are connected to Unity 3D engine to capture user's motion and brainwaves, respectively. The given narrative contents interactively respond to children with ADHD while they are reading the contents and performing the given tasks presented in the behavior training game system. This study examines whether the contents are suitable for the first and second grader children. For this, The interaction with the contents is first observed by five adults and two children. Then the system is tested by three ordinary first graders. During the experiments, the children easily figure out the given texts and do what the game contents drive for the player to react. All three kids concentrate on the reading contents without leaving their seats for average 37 minutes. This experiment shows that the contents are properly designed for the first and second graders in terms of reading speed, reading completion time, complexity level, and task performance. Based on this experimental study, the interactive narrative contents will be used to conduct full-scale experiments with children with ADHD.

This study was established the foundation with the expressing method on the context awareness platform by using Sensor of the Smart Phone(SP). The data were used for expressing emotions with different SP. The emotion of SP was influenced with the changing of the several variables generating real time and were determined by interacting a mix of emotion depending on the intensity and causality. First, the SP platform was analyzed, which constituted the situational awareness process that can express emotions. Second, a mathematical model for expressing emotion through the SP event design. Third, when SP have to acknowledge, assess, and respond to the current situation, emotional system is the situation immediately. The user's SP has sense as digitalized data and analysis of data on various sensors. In the point of this article, it was limited that building a two-dimensional table was established by cognitive evaluation, internal emotional state of structural regularities, and using the POMDP model number of the emotional state. In order to influence the emotional perception, the range of influence was limited. Using the tree structure of the way HSVI, the computed time was minimal for matrix operations. Last, the compensation policies were interlocked with the blood type. Designed in advance for optimum algorithms derive scenarios. Using the proposed processing methods, digitized data were applied with SP sensor information. To determine whether the right set of circumstances in order to express appropriate emotion, it was established with the numerical system.

Low-resolution voxel models are widely used in many computer games such as CrossyRoadTM and MinecraftTM and in many block games such as LegoTM. We present a multi-scale voxelization algorithm that abstracts a complex polygonal model to a low-resolution voxel model. Our scheme is distinguished from other voxelization schemes in the point that our scheme controls the level of abstraction according to the complexity of the model. We present a two-stage algorithm: in the first stage, we build a rough voxel model, which is carved to fit the target model in the second stage. We empoly an OpenGL-based slicing algorithm to build a rough model, which is constructed in twofolds. The exterior and interior of the model is constructed separately and merged to complete the rough model. In the second stage, we compute the silhouette of the input model and carve the rough model to improve the completeness of the final result. We test our algorithm for various polygonal models including famous animation character models to prove the excellency of our scheme.
