We are delighted to announce the publication of KITPA Journal Vol. 3 No. 1. Centered on two pillars — big-data analytics and digital humanities — this issue examines how information technology in the age of artificial intelligence is creating new value across academia and society.

First, in the field of big-data analytics we introduce studies that apply the latest AI techniques — convolutional neural networks, deep learning, large language models (LLMs), and dynamic knowledge graphs — to a wide range of application areas such as underground-structure object detection, real-time traffic-signal control, deriving candidates for multi-epitope mRNA vaccines, smart-home energy efficiency, personalized game content generation, mental-health status determination, sports-record prediction, and defense against distributed denial-of-service attacks. These efforts go beyond academic achievement and offer practical insights that can directly contribute to industry and to solving social problems.

Second, in digital humanities we present studies in which humanistic reflection meets digital technology to open new horizons across language, culture, education, and ethics — including loanword detection and refined-word recommendation, a summarization model for the Seungjeongwon Ilgi (Diary of the Royal Secretariat), dialect identification in Korean LLMs, analysis of online hate discourse, an English chunking-reading learning tool, the value-dependence of AI evaluation metrics, handwriting-based stress relief for adolescents, and multi-social-media identity and psychological self-management. This will be a venue for in-depth reflection on how technology mirrors and transforms human life and culture.

By weaving together rapidly advancing AI and big-data applied research with humanistic questions of the digital age, this issue seeks to present the possibilities of convergent research that crosses academic boundaries. We hope this will be an occasion in which the creativity of researchers, the field experience of practitioners, and the fresh perspectives of the next generation come together to jointly explore a human-centered direction for the future of information technology.

Your unwavering interest and support make this journal all the more meaningful. We ask for your active participation on the journey of sharing knowledge and broadening horizons together.

Thank you.

We are delighted to announce the publication of KITPA Journal Vol. 2 No. 2. This issue centers on the combined theme of public big data and digital humanities, exploring how the public sector, facing the challenges of the times, can engage with humanistic reflection to create future value.

First, we examine how public big data supports new insight and innovation across administration, policy, education, culture, and other public areas. Several studies in this issue show how big-data analysis improves public services and strengthens transparency and efficiency.

Second, we expand traditional humanistic research methods through the lens of digital humanities. When the emotional and cultural insight of the humanities meets the latest digital technologies, data analysis, and visualization, deeper human-centered research becomes possible.

By providing an interdisciplinary space where public big data and digital humanities come together, we hope to cross academic boundaries and offer clues for understanding and solving social problems. We hope that the creativity of researchers, the insight of practitioners, and the vision of policymakers can come together to jointly explore sustainable directions for both information technology and the humanities.

Your rich interest and participation make this journal all the more meaningful. We ask for your continued support on the journey of sharing knowledge and opening up new possibilities at the intersection of the public sphere and the humanities.

Thank you.

We are delighted to announce the publication of KITPA Journal Vol.2 No.1. This issue takes smart homes and smart cities as its main theme, focusing on the innovative advancement of living and urban environments and the various technological challenges and opportunities that come with them.

We also address new possibilities enabled by the use of public big data, seeking closer collaboration between industry and academia.

Amid the rapidly changing digital transformation of modern society, smart homes and smart cities are becoming a key driver of a sustainable future. In this issue we introduce related research achievements and practical case studies in depth, exploring how technological innovation can enhance our quality of life and strengthen urban competitiveness.

We hope that your interest and support will make this journal a strong driver of sustainable development and innovation in information technology.

Thank you.

We are delighted to announce the publication of KITPA Journal Vol.1 No.1. This journal was founded to share academic achievements in the field of information technology and to foster cooperation between industry and academia.

Through this inaugural issue, we hope for lively communication between researchers and practitioners, and we look forward to establishing this journal as a venue for knowledge that contributes to innovation and advancement in the IT field.

Thank you.
