  • Patent number: 9778734
    Abstract: Disclosed herein is a memory aid method of selecting data watched by a user, recording the selected data along with situation/behavior data upon watching, providing recorded audio/video data in response to a situation condition. The memory aid method may include receiving audio/video data from a wearable device, separating unit data including only associated parts from the audio/video data, and extracting character or feature data from the unit data. Object data and context data are generated from the character/feature data. Importance of the generated object and context data is determined with reference to a personal information DB. Audio/video data is stored depending on the importance. The method can record audio/video data recognized by a user at normal times, extract data necessary for a current situation, and provide the extracted data to the user. Accordingly, a user can accurately remember information that was watched in the past.

  • Patent number: 9219608
    Abstract: A system, apparatus, and method in a communication system allow sharing contents of users by acquiring an access right even if there is no connection relationship in a Social Network Service (SNS). The system includes an SNS provider and a middleware server. The SNS provider provides the SNS and generates an authorization key and an authorization token according to an open authorization protocol. The middleware server obtains contents of a second user from the SNS provider by using an authorization key of the second user when a first user requests sharing SNS contents of the second user, and transmits the contents of the second user to the first user.

  • Patent number: 8880514
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a terminology-system-based system for supporting data object definition, which delimits a concept by means of a qualifier. The terminology-system-based system for supporting data object definition stores a terminology system in which a concept is structured to a terminology object and a terminology relation, and stores a data object for the concept in order to define a data object for a selected concept (hereinafter, referred to as a corresponding concept). The terminology-system-based system for supporting data object definition comprises a qualifier recommendation unit, which receives a qualifier of the selected corresponding concept to define the corresponding concept, searches for a data object which is stored and defined as a concept which is the same as the corresponding concept (hereinafter, referred to as the same concept), and recommends a qualifier of the object.

  • Publication number: 20120291510
    Abstract: Disclosed are a hot press forming method and a product formed using the hot press forming method, able to process a plated steel blank under appropriate heat treatment conditions to prevent the volatilization of a plated layer and the formation of oxidized scale, and which divisionally heats the plated steel blank in a secondary heating process to provide different strengths and physical properties to the product. The hot press forming method includes primarily and entirely heating the plated steel material to a predetermined temperature and maintaining the plated steel material at the predetermined temperature, secondarily and rapidly heating at least one portion of the plated steel material after the high temperature maintenance of the plated steel material, and performing a hot press forming and cooling process on the secondarily heated plated steel material.
