Improvements in understanding the effects of dietary fermentable carbohydrates and their interaction with supplemental feed enzymes and the feed manufacturing process may lead to reductions in volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions from poultry manure. Starch digestibility has been improved by replacing ground wheat or barley with whole wheat or barley, but there was no consistent effect of cereal species or feed form on the pH value of the gizzard contents. Pelleting results in improvements in feed conversion from 0 to 12%. Starch digestibility has been reported to account for up to 35 % of the improvement in available metabolic energy as a result of xylase supplementation. Factors which affect starch utilization and non-starch polysaccharide (NSP) absorption include the presence of anti-nutrient facto. (ANF) in grains, the nature of grain starch, NSP and the digestive capacity of animals. Improvements in feed production technology have been made in enzyme stabilization, allowing some dry enzyme products to be pelleted after conditioning at up to $87.69^{\circ}C$ and liquid enzymes to be stored in the feed mill for up to low months prior to use. The soluble NSP, arabinokylans and beta-glucans are partially degraded into smaller fragments by enzymes. With fragmentation, the water holding capacity is decreased, which leads to a reduction in digesta moisture, wet feces, and dirty eggs from hens fed diets containing viscosity-inducing ingredients.

According tothe development of digital media technologies various algorithms for video sequence matching have been proposed to match the video sequences efficiently. A large number of video sequence matching methods have focused on frame-wise query, whereas a relatively few algorithms have been presented for video sequence matching or video shot matching. In this paper, we propose an efficientalgorithm to index the video sequences and to retrieve the sequences for video sequence query. To improve the accuracy and performance of video sequence matching, we employ the Cauchy function as a similarity measure between histograms of consecutive frames, which yields a high performance compared with conventional measures. The key frames extracted from segmented video shots can be used not only for video shot clustering but also for video sequence matching or browsing, where the key frame is defined by the frame that is significantly different from the previous fames. Several key frame extraction algorithms have been proposed, in which similar methods used for shot boundary detection were employed with proper similarity measures. In this paper, we propose the efficient algorithm to extract key frames using the cumulative Cauchy function measure and. compare its performance with that of conventional algorithms. Video sequence matching can be performed by evaluating the similarity between data sets of key frames. To improve the matching efficiency with the set of extracted key frames we employ the Cauchy function and the modified Hausdorff distance. Experimental results with several color video sequences show that the proposed method yields the high matching performance and accuracy with a low computational load compared with conventional algorithms.

In mobile environments, the locations of moving objects such as vehicles, airplanes and users of wireless devices continuously change over time. For efficiently processing moving object information, the database system should be able to deal with large volume of data, and manage indexing efficiently. However, previous research on indexing method mainly focused on query performance, and did not pay attention to update operation for moving objects. In this paper, we propose a novel moving object indexing method, named ACAR-Tree. For processing efficiently frequently updating of moving object location information as well as query performance, the proposed method is based on fixed grid structure with auxiliary R-Tree. This hybrid structure is able to overcome the poor update performance of R-Tree which is caused by reorganizing of R-Tree. Also, the proposed method is able to efficiently deal with skewed-. or gaussian distribution of data using auxiliary R-Tree. The experimental results using various data size and distribution of data show that the proposed method has reduced the size of index and improve the update and query performance compared with R-Tree indexing method.

The objects which continuously change their locations in the real world are called moving objects. The works on the existing spatial indices have been proposed the retrieval methods. However, keeping track of the terminal location of moving objects is more important than the efficiency of the query processing in the moving object database. Therefore, many pure spatial indices are not applicable to the moving objects database which should maintain the object's current location as precise as possible. This parer proposes a method for reducing the construction time of indexing moving objects. We analyze the characteristics of the method to re-index all the objects after each time period and the method to update immediately the locations on reporting their locations. We also newly propose a selective immediate update method using the properties of moving objects in order to minimize the number of database updates.

A time-series database is a set of data sequences, each of which is a list of changing values corresponding to an object. Subsequence matching under time warping is defined as an operation that finds such subsequences whose time warping distance to a given query sequence are below a tolerance from a time-series database. In this paper, we first point out the characteristics of the previous methods for time-series sequence matching under time warping, and then discuss the approaches for applying them to whole matching as well as subsequence matching. Also, we perform quantitative performance evaluation via a series of experiments with real-life data. There have not been such researches in the literature that compare the performances of all the previous methods of subsequence matching under time warping. Thus, our results would be used as a good reference for showing their relative performances.

In developing a Korean database interfacing system exist many difficult problems which are not usually pointed out in developing an English version. Basically the difficulty in implementing deep level Korean database interfacing system lies in the fact that Korean has fewer syntactic restrictions. This means that while less burden will be placed on semantic analysis more burden will be placed on contextual processing for Korean when compared to English. This paper discusses various difficulties which we came across while developing a prototype Korean DB interfacing system (the Korean Core L Language Engine) especially focusing on issues of representing and resolving Quasi Logical Forms.

Nano-sized a-alumina with a narrow distribution was prepared by using Flame Spray Pyrolysis (FSP). The microemulsion of water in oil (W/O) was prepared to make ultrafine droplets for FSP process. Kerosene (fuel) as a continuos phase and Al(NO$_3$)$_3$$.$9$H_2O$ (oxidizer) aqueous solution as a dispersed phase were prepared for microemulsification. The microemulsion with dispersion stability was obtained by adjusting the composition of 80 vol% kerosene, 10 vol% aqueous solution, and 10 vol% emulsifying agent. Microemulsion was sprayed onto the flame by using two-fluid nozzle spray gun under the condition of 0.03 ㎫ air pressure. The synthesized products were $\alpha$-alumina phase with the size of 20 to 30 nm.

공간 데이터 웨어하우스 구축기는 소스 데이터의 변경 사항을 일괄처리의 형태로 공간 데이터 웨어하우스에 적재한다. 또한, 공간 데이터 웨어하우스 서버는 사용자의 질의에 빠른 응답을 하기위해 적재된 데이터로 색인을 구축한다. 색인을 구성하는 기존 기법으로는 벌크 삽입 기법 및 색인 전송 기법이 있다. 벌크 삽입 기법은 색인을 구성하기 위한 클러스터링 비용이 필요하며 검색 성능도 떨어진다. 또한, 색인 전송 기법은 주기적인 소스 데이터의 변경을 지원하지 않는다는 문제점이 있다. 본 논문에서는 이와 같은 문제점을 해결하기 위해 공간 데이터 웨어하우스에서 부분 색인 전송을 이용한 효율적인 색인 재구성 기법을 제안한다. 제안 기법은 구축기에서 색인의 구조에 맞게 클러스터링된 클러스터들을 부분 색인으로 구성하여 페이지 단위로 전송한다. 공간 데이터 웨어하우스 서버에서는 전송된 부분 색인의 물리적 사상 문제를 해결하기 위해 물리적으로 연속된 공간을 예약하고 예약된 공간에 부분 색인을 기록한다. 기록된 부분 색인은 공간 데이터 웨어하우스 서버에 있던 기존 색인에 삽입된다. 부분 색인이 기존 색인에 직접 삽입됨으로써 색인 재구성을 위한 검색, 분할, 재조정 비용은 최소가 된다.

Since tags do not have location informations, the identifiers of tags which are symbolic data are used as the location informations. Therefore, it is difficult to define the proxmity between two trajectories of tags and inefficient to process the user queries for tags. In this paper, we define the perceptual space to model the location of a tag and propose the proximity of the perceptual spaces. The proximity of the perceptual spaces is composed of the static proximity and dynamic proximity. Using the proximity of the perceptual spaces, it is possible to measure the proximity between two trajectories of tags and build the efficient indexes for tag trajectories. We evaluated the performance of the proposed proximity function for tag trajectories on the IR-tree and the $R^*$-tree.
