The common speech recognition system displays higher recognition performance in a quiet environment, while its performance declines sharply in a real environment where there are noises. To implement a speech recognizer that is robust in different speech settings, this study suggests the method of Parallel Model Combination adaptation using frequency-variant based on environment-awareness (FV-PMC), which uses variants in frequency; acquires the environmental data for speech recognition; applies it to upgrading the speech recognition model; and promotes its performance enhancement. This FV-PMC performs the speech recognition with the recognition model which is generated as followings: i) calculating the average frequency variant in advance among the readily-classified noise groups and setting it as a threshold value; ii) recalculating the frequency variant among noise groups when speech with unknown noises are input; iii) regarding the speech higher than the threshold value of the relevant group as the speech including the noise of its group; and iv) using the speech that includes this noise group. When noises were classified with the proposed FV-PMC, the average accuracy of classification was 56%, and the results from the speech recognition experiments showed the average recognition rate of Set A was 79.05%, the rate of Set B 79.43%m, and the rate of Set C 83.37% respectively. The grand mean of recognition rate was 80.62%, which demonstrates 5.69% more improved effects than the recognition rate of 74.93% of the existing Parallel Model Combination with a clear model, meaning that the proposed method is effective.

The purpose of this work is to explain categorial correlations between indirect evidentiality and epistemic modality on the basis of semantic, pragmatic usages of Russian so-called non-specialized lexical markers of evidentiality, such as kazhetsja, naverno, vidimo, poxozhe, dolzhno byt' etc. To do this, firstly I concentrated on the parameter of internal functional variation of a given parenthetic word. Secondly, I approached this topic from a typological perspective. Thirdly, I accepted Sweeter(1990)'s methodological assumption that etymological prototype of a given word plays a great role in grammatical, semantic, pragmatic changes. As a result, I could postulate general tendencies of grammaticalizations (or semantic, pragmatic, funtional changes) in the direction from epistemic modality to indirect evidentialty, which consists of inferentives, presumptives, and quotatives. For example, such a parenthetic word as kazhetsja can functions not only as a marker of epistemic modality of uncertainty, but also as inferentives. Besides, it is very interesting that this word lately has started to function as quotatives, too. This kind of functional variations are very characteristic in these spheres.

In this study, we focus on the classifying and representing data in the elementary mathematics curriculum for 1st and 2nd grades which have been rarely addressed in the previous studies. We analyze the significance of classifying and representing sata in terms of statistical problem solving and variability as the core of statistical literacy. As a result, the classifying and representing data are important for students to recognize the variability which is ubiquitous in the data and to construct distribution of data, respectively. They are reflected in the 2015 revised mathematics curriculum as the statistical literacy for addressing data. We suggest some implications to teach the classifying and representing data as the practice of statistical literacy education in their statistics classes for 1st and 2nd grades.

Innate immunity is the first line of host defense consisting of various molecules against infectious challenges. Mannose-binding lectin (MBL) belongs to the collectin protein family which takes part of innate immunity and is able to recognize specific carbohydrates on the surface of a variety of infectious agents acting as a pattern recognition molecule. In this way, MBL differentiates self from non-self and interacts with other molecules of the immune system. MBL genotype shows various MBL2 polymorphisms which are responsible for MBL deficiency in a substantial portion of the entire human population and for susceptibility to infectious disease. Therefore, it has been highlighted in the relationship between genetic variants and clinical significance. Here we focus on presenting anoverview of our understanding of MBL structure and functions.

Vulpia octoflora (Walter) Rydb.가 경기도 여주시 강천리 일대에서 발견되었다. 본 종은 북아메리카 원산으로 알려져 있으며, 최근 호주와 일본, 우크라이나에서 침입외래식물로 보고된 바 있다. V. octoflora는 주로 건조한 건조한 모래나 자갈 모래밭에 자라는 잡초성 식물로, 도로변을 따라 개방된 지역이나 인위적 교란 지역에서 빈번하게 발견된다. 학자에 따라 북아메리카 지역에 분포하는 개체들의 지리적 분포와 형태 변이를 근거로 종하분류군으로 세분화하기도 하지만, 형태 변이의 일관성 부족으로 인해 종내 변이로 인식하여 통합하여 처리하는 것이 타당하게 여겨진다. 본 종은 최근에 국내에 보고된 침입외래식물인 들묵새아재비와 유사하나, 소수당 달리는 소화의 수가 더 많고, 호영 정단부의 까락의 길이가 짧은 것으로 명확히 구분된다. 좀들묵새에 대한 생태계 위해성 연구는 진행된 바 없으나, 최초 발견지인 여주시 강천섬 일대는 멸종위기 2등급종인 단양쑥부쟁이의 자생지이기 때문에, 새롭게 유입된 외래식물의 잠재적 생태 교란에 따른 위해성 평가 및 확산 방지를 위한 모니터링이 필요할 것으로 여겨진다. 본 연구에서는 주요 형질에 대한 기재와, 지리적 분포, 도해도, 화상자료와 국내에 분포하는 동속 분류군과의 검색표를 제공하고자 한다.

A cloned delta-endotoxin gene from Bacillus thuringiensis var. kurstaki NRD 6 was mutated at N-terminal toxic portion of the protoxin by site-directed mutagenesis. A Stu 1 restriction site was created in protoxin region of the mutant B.t.kurstaki NRD 6-Stu 1 which changed A to C in 177 region of the protoxin(silent mutation). Antigenic property of crystalline inclusion (delta-endotoxin) of the mutant was no difference to intact strain by the western blot analysis and its toxidity threshold value was also showed 0.015~0.030ng against Choristoneura femiferana-1 insect, similar with 0.01~0.024ng of parent strain, but stronger than that of B.t.kurstaki NRD 5 (500~1000ng) and B.t.kurstaki NRD 4(none toxic).

Acoustic cues of some consonantal phonology were tested in Korean words. All Korean consonants were recorded and acoustically analyzed in controlled phonological environments :ⅰ) word-initial, ⅱ) inter-vocalic, and ⅲ) word-final positions. The observed acoustic regulations are : ⅰ) The lengths of obstruents are longer word-initially than word-finally, ⅱ) The lengths of sonorants are longer word-finally than in word-initial or inter-vocalic positions, ⅲ) The formants of the lateral sound /l/ are higher word-finally than intervocalically. The phonological explanations of these acoustic regulations can be found in the rules of ⅰ) inter-vocalic voicing of plain stops, ⅱ) syllable-final unreleasing of obstruents, ⅲ) word-initial aspiration of stops, and ⅳ) liquid alternation between [r] and [l]. Numerical data of all these acoustic regulations are reported in order to facilitate their application toward improving naturalness for speech synthesis and accurateness for speech recognition.

On the basin of RAPD analysis, genetic diversity and structure of the natural populations of Abies holophylla was estimated by AMOVA procedure. The average value of percent of polymorphic markers was 71.9%. Most variation existed among individuals within population(80.2%). Genetic differentiation among populations(${\Phi}_{ST}$) was 0.198. When the populations were grouped as two region(i.e., Taebaek and Sobaek Mountain Regions), 8.5% of the total genetic variation was explained as regional differences. The heterogeneity of molecular variance among populations was investigated with Bartlett's test, which revealed that populations of Mt. Taebaek and Mt. Gariwang were more heterogeneous. Generally, the populations of Taebaek Mountain Reion were more heterogeneous than those of Sobaek Mountain Reion. Finally, the applicability of AMOVA to the populations frenetic study was discussed in comparison with other measures of genetic differentiation which were widely used.
