In vitro shoot tip culture technique was established in pear (Pyrus pyrifolia 'Niitaka') as related to tree vigor, sampling time, and plant growth regulators and sucrose supplemented to medium. Shoot tips excised in June from the tree having medium-vigor developed good shoots. BA (1.0 and 2.0 mg/L) without NAA produced shoots suitable for proliferation, and NAA supplemented to medium resulted in poor shoot growth and excessive callus formation. BA of 2.0 mg/L combined with 0.01 mg/L NAA provided shoots suitable for rooting and sucrose of 30 g/L was recommended for proliferation medium. A fourth strength MS medium supplemented with 0.1 mg/L NAA produced plantlets in good quality of root number and root length.

1999년 대학입학 수학능력고사(이하 수능)부터 새롭게 선택과목제와 표준점수제가 도입된다. 선택과목제는 수리탐구II 영역에서 공통과목외 한 개의 과목을 수험생 개인이 선택해서 보는 것을 의미하고, 표준점수제는 영역별 난이도를 조정하기 위해 각 영역의 원점수를 평균 50, 표준편차 10인 점수로 표준화시키는 것을 뜻한다. 선택과목이 있는 영역의 경우는 난이도차뿐만 아니라 각 선택과목 집단별로 일반적인 학업능력의 차이가 존재할 수 있다. 따라서 점수를 표준화시킬 때 과목별 난이도뿐만 아니라 그룹별 학업능력의 차이도 고려해야 한다. 지금까지 발표된 등화방법은 대표적으로 모수적 방법인 선형등화와 비모수적 방법인 백분위수등화가 있는데 이 두 가지 방법은 모두 각 그룹의 학업능력이 동일하다는 가정 하에 전개되어왔다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 우리 나라 입시상황에 적절한 그룹별 능력차이를 보정한 선형등화와 분위수 등화 방법을 비교해 보았다.

공정능력지구 $C_{pk}$는 제조공정이 제품을 제대로 생산하고 있는지를 평가하기 위하여 널리 사용되고 있는 측도이다. 최근까지 공정능력지수 $C_{pk}$에 관한 추정문제들이 만히 연구되었는 바, 대부분의 이러한 연구들은 공정분포가 정규분포임을 가정하였다. 하지만 실제 품질관리 현장의 공정으로부터 얻어지는 특성치들이 정규분포를 따르지 않는 경우가 많이 발생하며, 이를 감지하기가 어려울 수 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 공정능력지수 $C_{pk}$에 대한 바람직한 구간추정 방법을 제안하기 위하여 6가지 형태의 비모수적인 붓스트랩 신뢰구간을 설정하고 세 가지 공정분포에 대하여 다양하고 포괄적인 모의실험을 통하여 그 효율성에 관하여 비교연구를 하였다.

Maintaining the lifetime of a product is one of the objectives of quality control. In real processes, most samples are constructed with censored data because, in many situations, we cannot measure the lifetime of all samples due to time or cost problems. In this paper, we propose two cumulative sum (CUSUM) control charting procedures to monitor the mean of type I right-censored lognormal lifetime data. One of them is based on the likelihood ratio, and the other is based on the binomial distribution. Through simulations, we evaluate the performance of the two proposed procedures by comparing the average run length (ARL). The overall performance of the likelihood ratio CUSUM chart is better, especially this chart performs better when the censoring rate is low and the shape parameter value is small. Conversely, the binomial CUSUM chart is shown to perform better when the censoring rate is high, the shape parameter value is large, and the change in the mean is small.

Growth curves were estimated for 1083 female Korean cattle raised in Daekwanryeong branch, National Livestock Research Institute (NLRI). Comparisons were made among various growth curve models for goodness of fit for the growth of the cows. Estimated growth curve functions were $W_t=370.2e^{-2.208e^{-0.00327t}$ for Gompertz model, for von Bertalanffy model, and $W_t=341.2(1+5.652e^{-0.00524t})^{-1}$ for Logistic model. Ages at inflection estimated from Gompertz model, von Bertalanffy model and Logistic model were 242.2 days, 191.5 days, and 330.5 days respectively, body weight at inflection were 136kg, 115kg, and 170kg, and daily gain at inflection were 0.445kg, 0.451kg, and 0.446kg. The predicted weights by ages from Gompertz model, von Bertalanffy model, and Logistic model were onsistently overestimated at birth weight and underestimated at 36 month weight. The von Bertalanffy model which had a variable point of inflection fit the data best.

Linear regression method, proposed by Haseman and Elston(1972), for detecting linkage to a quantitative trait of sib pairs is a linkage testing method for a single locus and a single trait. However, multivariate methods for detecting linkage are needed, when information from each of several traits that are affected by the same major gene are available on each individual. Amos et al. (1990) extended the regression method of Haseman and Elston(1972) to incorporate observations of two or more traits by estimating the principal component linear function that results in the strongest correlation between the squared pair differences in the trait measurements and identity by descent at a marker locus. But, it is impossible to control the probability of type I errors with this method at present, since the exact distribution of the statistic that they use is yet unknown. In this paper, we propose a multivariate nonparametric trend test for detecting linkage to multiple traits. We compared with a simulation study the efficiencies of multivariate nonparametric trend test with those of the method developed by Amos et al. (1990) for quantitative traits data. For multivariate nonparametric trend test, the results of the simulation study reveal that the Type I error rates are close to the predetermined significance levels, and have in general high powers.

A nonlinear mixed effects model is mainly used to analyze repeated measurement data in various fields. A nonlinear mixed effects model consists of two stages: the first-stage individual-level model considers intra-individual variation and the second-stage population model considers inter-individual variation. The individual-level model, which is the first stage of the nonlinear mixed effects model, estimates the parameters of the nonlinear regression model. It is the same as the general nonlinear regression model, and usually estimates parameters using the least squares estimation method. However, the least squares estimation method may have a problem that the estimated value of the parameters and standard errors become extremely large if the assumed nonlinear function is not explicitly revealed by the data. In this paper, a new estimation method is proposed to solve this problem by introducing the ridge regression method recently proposed in the nonlinear regression model into the first-stage individual-level model of the nonlinear mixed effects model. The performance of the proposed estimator is compared with the performance with the standard estimator through a simulation study. The proposed methodology is also illustrated using quantitative high throughput screening data obtained from the US National Toxicology Program.

In this paper, we propose a new trajectory model for characterizing segmental features and their interaction based upon a general framework of hidden Markov models. Each segment, a sequence of vectors, is represented by a trajectory of observed sequences. This trajectory is obtained by applying a new design matrix which includes transitional information on contiguous frames, and is characterized as a polynomial regression function. To apply the trajectory to the segmental HMM, the frame features are replaced with the trajectory of a given segment. We also propose the likelihood of a given segment and the estimation of trajectory parameters. The obervation probability of a given segment is represented as the relation between the segment likelihood and the estimation error of the trajectories. The estimation error of a trajectory is considered as the weight of the likelihood of a given segment in a state. This weight represents the probability of how well the corresponding trajectory characterize the segment. The proposed model can be regarded as a generalization of a conventional HMM and a parametric trajectory model. The experimental results are reported on the TIMIT corpus and performance is show to improve significantly over that of the conventional HMM.

Weight records of Hanwoo cows from birth to 36 months of age collected in Daekwanryeong branch, National Livestock Research Institute(NLRI) were fitted to Gompertz, von Bertalanffy and Logistic functions.

For von BertalanfTy model, the mean estimates of A, b and k were 410.47 ${\pm}$ 117.98kg, 0.575${\pm}$0.057 and 0.003 ${\pm}$ 0.001, and mean estimates of body weight, age and daily gain at inflection were 121.62 ${\pm}$ 34.94kg, 211.02 ${\pm}$ 105.53 and 0.504 ${\pm}$ O.l24kg.

In order to resolve data scarcity problem related to crisis, Oh and Kim (2007) proposed to use stability oriented approach which focuses a base period of financial market, fits asymptotic stationary autoregressive model to the base period and then compares the fitted model with the current market situation. Based on such approach, they developed financial market instability index. However, since neural network, their major tool, depends on the base period too heavily, their instability index tends to suffer from inaccuracy. In this study, we consider linear asymptotic stationary autoregressive model and neural network to fit the base period and produce two instability indexes independently. Then the two indexes are combined into one integrated instability index via newly proposed combining method. It turns out that the combined instability performs reliably well.
