국제법학방법의 서설적 고찰

박배근(Park Pae Keun) 국제법평론회 2014 국제법평론 Vol.0 No.40

Method is problematic in two ways to scholars of international law. First, a scholar of international law needs a method to systemize knowledge of international law. Second, to understand the meaning of texts in which some statements about a method of international law are included, an international law scholar must have some knowledge about the method. For example, if an international law scholar does not have any knowledge about 'Policy Oriented Theory of International Law', he / she cannot understand such proposition as "McDougal's theory will be helpful in explaining the differences of the States' position with regard to a delimitation of maritime boundaries." Therefore, it is inevitable for a student of international law to have basic understanding and knowledge of methods adopted by scholars of international law. Because there are so various kinds of methods of international law, we need a framework through which we can grasp the contents and characteristics of certain method of international law. As such framework, this review suggest that methods of international law must be understood according to the order of their appearance and in relation with general methods of jurisprudence. Moreover, this review emphasizes that methods of international law are necessary to be examined under the perspective on the object of international law which a scholar adopting certain method of international law pursues. To expose the differences among methods of international law, asking questions about most problematic issues of international law would be very useful method. Such issues may include the source of validity of international law, elements of formation of customary international law, state practice constituting an element of customary international law, existence and significance of 'soft-law', peremptory norms of international law, principles of treaty interpretation, legal character of the right of self-determination, function of international judiciary organs in international law, humanitarian intervention, imperialist character of international law, etc.

Development of Pareto strategy multi-objective function method for the optimum design of ship structures

Na, Seung-Soo,Karr, Dale G. The Society of Naval Architects of Korea 2016 International Journal of Naval Architecture and Oc Vol.8 No.6

It is necessary to develop an efficient optimization technique to perform optimum designs which have given design spaces, discrete design values and several design goals. As optimization techniques, direct search method and stochastic search method are widely used in designing of ship structures. The merit of the direct search method is to search the optimum points rapidly by considering the search direction, step size and convergence limit. And the merit of the stochastic search method is to obtain the global optimum points well by spreading points randomly entire the design spaces. In this paper, Pareto Strategy (PS) multi-objective function method is developed by considering the search direction based on Pareto optimal points, the step size, the convergence limit and the random number generation. The success points between just before and current Pareto optimal points are considered. PS method can also apply to the single objective function problems, and can consider the discrete design variables such as plate thickness, longitudinal space, web height and web space. The optimum design results are compared with existing Random Search (RS) multi-objective function method and Evolutionary Strategy (ES) multi-objective function method by performing the optimum designs of double bottom structure and double hull tanker which have discrete design values. Its superiority and effectiveness are shown by comparing the optimum results with those of RS method and ES method.

Comparison of Automatic Calibration for a Tank Model with Optimization Methods and Objective Functions

( Kang Min Goo ),( Park Seung Woo ),( Park Chang Eun ) 한국농공학회 2002 韓國農工學會誌 : 전원과 자원 Vol.44 No.7

Two global optimization methods, the SCE-UA method and the Annealing-simplex (A-S) method for calibrating a daily rainfall-runoff model, a Tank model, was compared with that of the Downhill Simplex method. The performance of the four objective functions, DRMS (daily root mean square), HMLE (heteroscedastic maximum likelihood estimator), ABSERR (mean absolute error), and NS (Nash-Sutcliffe measure), was tested and synthetic data and historical data were used. In synthetic data study. 100% success rates for all objective functions were obtained from the A-S method, and the SCE-UA method was also consistently able to obtain good estimates. The downhill simplex method was unable to escape from local optimum, the worst among the methods, and converged to the true values only when the initial guess was close to the true values. In the historical data study, the A-S method and the SCE-UA method showed consistently good results regardless of objective function. An objective function was developed with combination of DRMS and NS, which putted more weight on the low flows.

Region-Based Object Recognition by Color Segmentation Using a Simplified PCNN

Yuli Chen,Yide Ma,Dong Hwan Kim,Sung-Kee Park IEEE 2015 IEEE transactions on neural networks and learning Vol.26 No.8

<P>In this paper, we propose a region-based object recognition (RBOR) method to identify objects from complex real-world scenes. First, the proposed method performs color image segmentation by a simplified pulse-coupled neural network (SPCNN) for the object model image and test image, and then conducts a region-based matching between them. Hence, we name it as RBOR with SPCNN (SPCNN-RBOR). Hereinto, the values of SPCNN parameters are automatically set by our previously proposed method in terms of each object model. In order to reduce various light intensity effects and take advantage of SPCNN high resolution on low intensities for achieving optimized color segmentation, a transformation integrating normalized Red Green Blue (RGB) with opponent color spaces is introduced. A novel image segmentation strategy is suggested to group the pixels firing synchronously throughout all the transformed channels of an image. Based on the segmentation results, a series of adaptive thresholds, which is adjustable according to the specific object model is employed to remove outlier region blobs, form potential clusters, and refine the clusters in test images. The proposed SPCNN-RBOR method overcomes the drawback of feature-based methods that inevitably includes background information into local invariant feature descriptors when keypoints locate near object boundaries. A large number of experiments have proved that the proposed SPCNN-RBOR method is robust for diverse complex variations, even under partial occlusion and highly cluttered environments. In addition, the SPCNN-RBOR method works well in not only identifying textured objects, but also in less-textured ones, which significantly outperforms the current feature-based methods.</P>

비접촉식 방법에 의한 원통형 물체의 지름 측정

임복룡,김석원,Im, Bok-Ryoung,Kim, Sok-Won 한국광학회 2005 한국광학회지 Vol.16 No.3

Although there are many ways to measure the diameter of a cylindrical object, in this study, the diameter of a cylindrical objects were measured by the geometric optical method and interference-diffraction method which are two kinds of tipical non-contact methods. In geometric optical method, the curved laser beam is formed on the cylindrical surface by spreading the inclined laser beam using the cylindrical lens. The curve is captured by CCD camera and the diameter is calculated by geometry. And the interference and diffraction patterns of investigated cylindrical objects are analyzed in interference-diffraction method. In this study, the cylindrical objects, whose diameters are $0.05\;mm\;\~\;100.50\;mm$ were measured by the geometric optical method and interference-diffraction method. The results show that in each method, the relative errors of the measurement are within $2\%$ and $1\%$, respectively and these non-contact methods can be applied in the quick measurement of many objects. 원통형 물체의 지름을 측정하는 방법에는 여러 가지가 있지만 본 연구에서는 두 가지 비접촉식 방법인 기하광학적 방법과 간섭${\cdot}$회절 방법으로 원통형 물체의 지름을 측정하였다. 기하광학적인 방법은 원통형 렌즈를 이용하여 기울인 레이저 광선을 원통형 물체의 옆면에 비추어 나타나는 곡선을 CCD 카메라로 포착하고 이 곡선을 기하학적인 방법으로 계산하는 것이며 간섭${\cdot} $회절에 의한 방법은 스크린에 나타난 물체에 의한 레이저광의 간섭${\cdot}$회절무늬를 측정하고 분석하는 방법이다. 버니어 캘리퍼스로 측정한 평균 지름이 $0.05\;mm\;\~\;100.50\;mm$ 인 원통형 물체를 기하광학적 방법과 간섭${\cdot}$회절 방법으로 측정한 결과 각각의 상대오차가 $2\%$ 와 $1\%$범위 이내였고 다량의 물체 지름을 신속히 측정하는데 응용될 수 있음을 확인하였다.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate the method of measuring the fusional vergence amount by analyzing the image of the eyes changed with the application of the prism using a digital camera and to evaluate the significance of this method with a conventional subjective measurement method. Methods: The subjects were 30 adults (mean age 23.77 ± 1.52 years) with corrected visual acuity of 1.0 or more and were measured negative fusional vergence (NFV) and positive fusional vergence (PFV) three times, respectively, using a step vergence method with a prism bar at distance and near. When measuring fusional vergence, each prism stage was photographed using a Canon 6D DSLR camera and a 100mm macro lens. At the same time, we recorded subjective break and recovery points. Finally, we measured that pupillary distance (PD) on photograph of each step of prism diopter and convert them to graph. The significance was identified by comparing subjective and objective values. Results: In the case of the NFV measurement, the graph showed a steady increase in the pupillary distance change measured after photographing, and a graph slope change at the point reported as the break and recovery points. In the case of PFV measurement, the PD decreased steadily, and the slope of the graph was changed at the point reported as the separation point and the recovery point. The mean value of the NFV at distance was that objective ‘12.63±5.48⊿’, subjective ‘11.41±3.88⊿’ at the break point, objective ‘9.15±4.12⊿’, subjective ‘8.11±3.47⊿’ at the recovery point. For near NFV break points were that objective ‘16.74±4.01⊿’, subjective ‘15.93±4.66⊿’ and recovery points were that objective ‘12.55±3.43⊿’, subjective ‘11.91±3.90⊿’. The break points of distance PFV were that objective ‘18.52±4.84⊿’, subjective ‘18.58±5.73⊿’ and the recovery points were that objective ‘3.36±3.89⊿’, subjective ‘13.17±4.34⊿’. The break points of near PFV were that objective ‘22.85±6.33⊿’, subjective ‘22.96±6.21⊿’ and the recovery points were that objective ‘17.13±4.61⊿’, subjective ‘17.48±5.37⊿’. These were not statistically significant. Conclusions: There was no statistically significant difference of the measured values between that the objective measurements using a digital camera and the subjective measurements using a prism bar. Therefore, it would be useful to measure the convergence reserve in infants and persons with disabilities who can not perform self - examinations using a digital camera. It is thought that the method of measuring fusional vergence range using a digital camera is useful for the measurement of infants and the disabled who can not be measured by subjective method.

검사 작성 피의자신문조서의 진정성립의 입증방법으로 ‘그 밖의 객관적인 방법` - 대법원 2016. 2. 18. 선고 2015도16586 판결 -

천진호 ( Chun Jin Ho ) 법조협회 2016 최신판례분석 Vol.65 No.8

2007. 6. 1. 시행된 제17차 형사소송법은 제312조 제2항에서 검사 작성의 피의자신문조서의 실질적 진정 성립을 입증하는 방법으로 영상녹화물이나 그 밖의 객관적인 방법을 새롭게 도입하면서, 같은 조 제5항에서 피고인 또는 피고인이 아닌 자가 수사과정에서 작성한 진술서에도 이를 준용하는 것으로 규정하고 있다. 형사소송법 개정 이후 영상녹화물의 증거능력에 대해서도 여전히 견해가 대립되고 있을 뿐 아니라, 제312조 제2항에서 규정하고 있는 ‘그 밖의 객관적인 방법`에 수사과정에 참여한 변호인이나 조사자 또는 통역인의 진술이 이에 해당하는지가 여전히 다투어지고 있다. 대상판결에 의하면 검사 작성의 피의자신문저서의 실질적 진정 성립의 입증방법은 조서의 내용과 검사 앞에서의 진술 내용을 대조할 수 있는 수단으로서의 객관성이 보장되어 있어 있어야 한다는 점에서, ‘객관적인 방법`은 영상녹화물에 필적할 만큼 강력한 증명력을 갖춘 것이어야 한다. 따라서 대상판결은 피고인을 피의자로 조사하였거나 그 조사에 참여하였던 자들의 증언은 오로지 해당 증언자의 주관적 기억 능력에 의존할 수밖에 없어 객관성이 보장되어 있다고 보기 어렵다는 점을 이유로 검사의 피고인에 대한 피의자신문시 피고인의 진술을 통역한 통역인의 증언은 내심의 기억에 불과하여 이를 ‘객관적인 방법`에 해당한다고 볼 수 없다고 해석하고 있다. 형사소송의 가장 기본적인 원칙인 공판중심주의와 전문진술증거의 증거능력을 제한하고 있는 전문법칙의 관점에서 볼 때 검사 작성의 피의자신문조서의 실질적 진정 성립을 입증하기 위해서는 영상녹화물과 같이 인위적인 편집이나 조작의 가능성이 낮은 과학적ㆍ기계적인 방법에 제한되어야 한다. 또한 제312조 제2항을 개정할 당시의 입법취지를 고려한 목적론적 해석과 체계적 해석의 관점에서 보더라도 하며, 피의자신문에 참여한 변호인의 진술이나 조사자의 증언은 ‘그 밖의 객관적인 방법`에 해당하지 않는다고 해석하는 것이 타당하다. 나아가 ‘그 밖의 객관적인 방법`이라는 추상적ㆍ포괄적 표현으로 인한 해석의 혼란을 불식시키기 위해 입법적으로는 ‘영상녹화물과 같은 기계적인 방법`과 같이 구체적으로 이를 규정해야 할 것이다. June 1, 2007 the 17th Criminal Procedure Code has introduced a new video recordings or other objective methods as a way to prove the authenticity of the formation of substantially suspect interrogation depositions, written by inspection(§312②). And it is applying it to self-written statement in the investigation process, not the defendant or defendants in criminal procedure code §312⑤. The opinion about the competence of the Criminal Procedure evidence video recordings after the amendment has been opposed. And then this other objective methods, attorney or investigator or translator who participated in the investigation process in this statement of opinion about whether it is appropriate to vary. According to the Supreme Court, it proves the authenticity of the written record established for questioning suspects inspection method as a means to verify the objectivity of the statements before the contents of the dossier and the inspection is to be ensured. Such methods shall have the force of a powerful proof comparable to video recordings. Thus, the Supreme Court stated the person attending to investigate the cases examined the defendant or the defendant sees that there is no objectivity. So one of the translations of the defendant`s testimony is not stated interpretation can be seen as the only objective way to subjective memory of an individual. Criminal Procedure Code has adopted the system of justice, the trial center. With this in principle it does not admit the evidence of the ability to hear statements that passes through the others. This is called hearsay rule. From this point of view, In order to prove the veracity of the test is satisfied record statements of the accused in writing shall be limited to the lowest possibility of the scientific method and the mechanical method of editing and manipulation. In addition, even from the point of view of legislative intent or teleological interpretation of time to amend the second paragraph 312 of Criminal Procedure, testimony of a lawyer`s statement and investigators who participated in the suspects questioned is reasonable to interpret does not apply to any other objective methods.

자동화된 객관적 시력검사 시스템에서 사용된 억제법의 유용성

김민섭,고명규,황정민,위원량,이진학 대한안과학회 2008 대한안과학회지 Vol.49 No.7

Purpose: The objective visual acuity test is mandatory in certain cases, such as infants, nonverbal subjects, and subjects who need legal assistance. We designed an objective system for visual acuity test (SOVAT) consisting of three components: stimuli applied via a suppression method, display and evaluation and made a suppression method as stimuli component for SOVAT. Usefulness of the SOVAT was evaluated. Methods: The visual stimuli were presented on a high-resolution head-mounted display (HMD). An eye movement tracking program and gaze monitoring device allowed us to monitor the patient's fixation status during the test. The suppression method, in addition to a conventional induction method, was developed to use with the SOVAT and its accuracy and confidence level were evaluated. Results: On the basis of clinical data, we present the reference values for the SOVAT as below. For the induction method, objective visual acuity (smallest pixel size), the presumed subjective visual acuity was 3: 0.35-0.6, 7: 0.05-0.25, 12: below 0.05 and for the suppression method it was 1: 0.6-1.0, 1.5: 0.4-0.7, 3: 0.15-0.4, 5: 0.1-0.2. Conclusions: SOVAT using this suppression method to assess objective visual acuity proved to be more useful than that with a conventional induction method, especially in the range of high visual acuity.
