A Vector Database Approach for Natural Environment Monitoring and Analysis
By using spatiotemporal data obtained from various sensor devices can be analyzed the changes in the natural environment. However, to semantically and spatiotemporally analyze the massive amount of sensor data accumulated daily, it is important to realize observation data management by balancing resource size, computational cost, and semantic quality. In this keynote talk will be introduced a vector database approach that can be applied to data retrieval, analysis and prediction during the observation of global and local changing natural and ecological environments. Our approach can increase the reusability of massive observation data by compressing them to the feature vectors as embedding matrices using appropriate neural networks, achieving fast semantic retrieval and spatiotemporal analysis. We will present some research results to evaluate the proposed approach.
Biography
Kosuke Takano is working as a Full Professor at Kanagawa Institute of Technology, Japan. He received B. A. in Environment and Information Studies from Keio University, Japan, in 1998. Also, he received M. S. and Ph. D. degrees in Media and Governance from Keio University, Japan in 2003 and 2007, respectively. His main research interests have been in information searching, recommendation and management systems based on the semantic interpretation of media data. He is presently focused on developing a neural network-based architecture by considering transformers and Large Language Models (LLMs) for semantic data management.

Prof. Ki-Woong Park, Sejong University, South Korea
Title: Taxonomy Construction of Anti-Tampering Technology Schemes from System Programmer's View
In this talk, we analyze the recent anti-tampering technologies from a “system programmer’s” perspective. We have constructed a taxonomy matrix for these technologies and introduce a specialized classification framework. Using this framework, we assign identification numbers to the detailed technologies and operating principles embedded in existing anti-tampering solutions based on the ‘Sensing & Actions’ perspective and their ‘stackable position’. This approach enables creation of a roadmap for anti-tampering technologies and facilitates anti-tampering orchestration to build secure systems. Finally, we introduce Software-Defined Orchestration for Anti-Tampering, which allows selecting the most suitable anti-tampering technology for a given system.
