Abstract:
Provided is an image search method, including: receiving query image information associated with at least one query image; computing feature information based on color information of the query image information; and retrieving similar image information using feature information of raw image information associated with at least one raw image and feature information of the query image information.
Abstract:
A semiconductor device includes a substrate, a gate insulation layer, a gate structure, a gate spacer, and first and second impurity regions. The substrate has an active region defined by an isolation layer. The active region has a gate trench thereon. The gate insulation layer is formed on an inner wall of the gate trench. The gate structure is formed on the gate insulation layer to fill the gate trench. The gate structure has a width smaller than that of the gate trench, and has a recess at a first portion thereof. The gate spacer is formed on sidewalls of the gate structure. The first and second impurity regions are formed at upper portions of the active region adjacent to the gate structure. The first impurity region is closer to the recess than the second impurity region. Related methods are also provided.
Abstract:
A backlight assembly is provided. The backlight assembly includes a mold frame having a tetragonal frame shape and including four side parts and a bottom part extending from bottoms of the side parts, a printed circuit board disposed on the bottom part of the mold frame, at least one light source disposed on the printed circuit board, and a light guide sheet disposed at a side of the light source and accommodated in the mold frame.
Abstract:
A state client is configured to allow a user to specify a meeting-specific state, such as that the user is running late for a meeting, checked in to the meeting, or unable to attend the meeting. A state service stores data identifying the user's meeting-specific state. The state service also responds to requests for the state of the user. In one implementation, when such a request is received, the state service determines whether the user is an invitee to the same meeting as the user requesting the state. If not, the state service returns a general-purpose state indicator for the user. If both users are invitees to the same meeting, the state service returns the meeting-specific state indicator, which may then be displayed by a state client.
Abstract:
Architecture that facilitates the ability to trigger the capture and storing of meeting state (or context) by way of a single user interaction (a “one-click” operation), referred to herein as a bookmark operation, and then to store and access the state for subsequent use. The state is captured relative to a point of reference, such as time, user, keywords, and reference to a document, for example. Thus, all state elements such as meeting activities, participants, and content (e.g., audio, video, images, text, documents, etc.). The bookmark assigned to the state at a particular reference can be selected to rehydrate all the state elements captured and associated with that bookmark (e.g., getting back to the point in the meeting to perceive a relevant portion of a document, part of the meeting video, or other recorded feed), as well as all other allowed state elements.
Abstract:
A system and method for data analysis and digital forensics is provided. The system for data analysis and digital forensics may include: an online data forensic server for collecting and analyzing usage history information from an object device, which is subject to data collection, downloading and collecting data on the Internet based on the usage history information, requesting issuance of a timestamp token for the collected data, and receiving the issued timestamp token; a timestamp token issuing server for issuing the timestamp token for the collected data in response to the request for issuance of the timestamp token and proving the issued timestamp token to the online data forensic server; and a storage device for storing the collected data.
Abstract:
Provided is a visible light communication apparatus. The visible light communication apparatus includes: a display unit that displays an image according to an image signal; a light source unit that operates as a backlight for the display unit, generates an optical signal by driving a light source based on a data signal, and outputs the generated optical signal to the display unit; a sensor unit that detects a region corresponding to a shape of a terminal which touches or approaches the display unit; and an image signal conversion unit that converts the image signal such that an image displayed in the region detected by the sensor unit is converted to a bright image having a gray level higher than a predetermined reference gray level.
Abstract:
A recessed channel transistor includes a single crystalline silicon substrate having a recessed portion, a bottom surface of the recessed portion including an elevated central portion, a channel doping region in the single crystalline silicon substrate, the channel doping region being under the bottom surface of the recessed portion, a gate structure in the recessed portion, and source/drain regions in the single crystalline silicon substrate at both sides of the recessed portion, the source/drain regions being spaced apart from the bottom surface of the recessed portion.
Abstract:
Provided are an index analysis apparatus and method, and an index search apparatus and method. The index analysis apparatus extracts indexes from digital data, which is included in a disk image of a virtual drive, by using pattern matching, and the index search apparatus receives the extracted indexes and searches the digital data, which includes the received indexes, using a keyword keyed in by a user. Accordingly, the accuracy of digital forensic analysis can be increased, and digital forensic search can be sped up.
Abstract:
A liquid crystal display (LCD) apparatus time-divides a frame into a plurality of fields, in which lights having a color different from each other, are generated. The LCD apparatus includes a backlight unit. The backlight unit includes n of light-generating units sequentially generating the lights in the fields. An initial light-generating time of an nth light-generating unit being delayed by a predetermined time gap relative to the (n-1)th light-generating unit so that each of the fields includes a first period, in which one of the lights is generated, and a second period, in which at least two of the lights are generated. The light-generating units generate a peak light having a peak intensity in the first period. Thus, the intensity of light or the time period for which the light is generated, is controlled so that color mixing is minimized and color purity is improved.
