숫자열 인식은 문서 자동화 분야에서 매우 중요하다. 기존의 방법들은 숫자열을 낱자 단위로 분할하는 단계와 분할된 숫자들을 인식하는 두 단계로 이루어져 있다. 이들 방법으로는 접촉 유형의 많은 변형 때문에 만족할 만한 결과를 얻을 수 없다. 본 논문은 두자 접촉 숫자열을 분할-자유 방법으로 인식하는 방법을 제안한다. 이 방법은 두자 접촉 숫자열을 하나의 패턴으로 간주하여 인식한다. 즉, 인식 대상이 되는 부류가 100개(00, 01, 02, ... , 98, 99)이다. 훈련 데이터는 NIST 데이터베이스에의 낱자 단위 숫자들을 조합하여 합성하였고, 테스트 데이터는 NIST의 숫자열 필드에서 두자 접촉한 숫자열 만을 추출하여 사용하였다.

In order to investigate the influence of changes in the thermal properties of solid combustibles on thermal decomposition, a series of solid pyrolysis experiments were performed using a cone calorimeter specified in KS F ISO 5660-1. In the present study, Poly Methyl Methacrylate (PMMA) which does not produce Char during pyrolysis process was used as solid fuel. Results obtained from cone calorimeter experiments were compared to ones obtained from numerical analysis of Fire Dynamics Simulator (FDS) 1D pyrolysis model adopted with thermal properties of solid fuel as input parameters. Comparisons between experimentally calculated and model-predicted mass loss rate were then made to elucidate the effect of changes in the thermal properties on pyrolysis of PMMA.

The thermoelastic behavior of the porous carbon/phenolic composites is studied using the thermomechanical response model of chemically decomposing composites. The model includes thermal dependence of the porous composites, porosity in the pyrolysis process, pore pressure due to decomposing gases, and shrinkage. The poroelastic coefficients are calculated based on representative volume element model and finite element analysis. The internal stress distribution caused by pores and pore pressure, and the overall deformation are verified. The effects of the poroelastic coefficients on the thermoelastic behavior are examined through numerical experiments.

The quality characteristics of 'Xiangshui' pears (Pyrus ussuriensis) treated with different concentrations of biomass pyrolysis liquid (BPL) during storage at $25^{\circ}C$ were investigated. The weight of 'Xiangshui' pears treated with BPL declined at a slower rate than that of the control. The rot index of BPL-treated 'Xiangshui' pears decreased with increasing storage times, and treatment with 20-fold-diluted BPL resulted in the lowest rot index after storage for 12 days. The total acid content of 'Xiangshui' pears treated with 20-fold-diluted BPL was 0.19%, and was the highest after storage for 12 days. After storage for 12 days, the total sugar content of 'Xiangshui' pears treated with 20-fold-diluted BPL was 7.19%; this was significantly higher than that of the control, but not significantly different from that of pears treated with other BPL dilutions. The vitamin C content of 'Xiangshui' pears showed a decreased trend, and pears treated with 20-fold-diluted BPL had a vitamin C content of 2.21 mg/100 g after storage for 12 days and showed the least decline compared to other treatments. In addition, respiration in 'Xiangshui' pears was effectively inhibited by treatment with BPL. In conclusion, BPL treatment exerts a protective effect on the quality of 'Xiangshui' pears during storage, with 20-fold-diluted BPL being the most effective.

To abate the environmental burden derived from the massive generation of cattle manure (CM), pyrolysis of CM was suggested as one of the methods for manure treatment. In respect of carbon utilization, pyrolysis has an advantage in that it can produce usable carbon-based chemicals. This study was conducted to investigate a syngas production from pyrolysis of CM in CO₂ condition. In addition, mechanistic functionality of CO₂ in CM pyrolysis was investigated. It was found that the formation of CO was enhanced at ≥ 600 ℃ in CO2 environment, which was attribute to the homogeneous reactions between CO₂ and volatile matters (VMs). To expedite reaction kinetics for syngas production during CM pyrolysis, Catalytic pyrolysis was carried out using Co/SiO2 as a catalyst. The synergistic effects of CO₂ and catalyst accelerate the formation of H₂ and CO at entire temperature range. Thus, this result offers that CO₂ could be a viable option for syngas production with the mitigation of greenhouse gas.

This study was conducted to obtain basic process simulation data before conducting pyrolysis experiments for the development of a thermochemical conversion system by recirculation of heat carrier and gases thereby. In this study, polypropylene (PP) was used as a pyrolysis sample material as an alternative to waste plastics, and fluid sand was used as a heat transfer medium in the system. Manganese (Mn) was chosen as the catalyst for the pyrolysis experiment, and the catalyst pyrolysis was performed by impregnating it in the sand. The basic properties of PP were analyzed using a thermogravimetric analyzer (TGA), and liquid oil was generated through catalytic pyrolysis under a nitrogen atmosphere at 600℃. The carbon number distribution of the generated liquid oil was confirmed by GC/MS analysis. In this study, the effects of the presence and the amount of Mn loading on the yield of liquid oil and the distribution of hydrocarbons in the oil were investigated. When Mn/sand was used, the residue decreased and the oil yield increased compared to pyrolysis using sand alone. In addition, as the Mn loading increased, the ratio of C₆~C₉ range gasoline in the liquid oil gradually increased, and the distribution of diesel and heavy oil with more carbon atoms than C₁₀ in the oil decreased. In conclusion, it was found that using Mn as a catalyst and changing the amount of Mn could increase the yield of liquid oil and increase the gasoline ratio in the product.

Anti-oxidation and flame resistant polyurethane nanofibers were prepared by electrospinning and aluminum hydroxide addition. Electrospinning was carried out under the following procedure conditions; applied voltage, 20 kV; polymer solution feeding rate, 1.2 ml/h; collector rolling speed, 120 rpm; and tip to collector distance, 15 cm. Aluminum hydroxide was added to the prepared polymer solution for electrospinning to enhance the oxidation and flame resistant properties. The thermal properties were investigated by thermogravimetric analysis to determine the polymer decomposition temperature, integral procedure decomposition temperature, final decomposition temperature, and remaining amount after thermal decomposition. The activated energy for polymer degradation was also investigated using the Horowitz-Metzger equation. The activation energy increased to more than 50%. The thermal properties of the polyurethane nanofibers were improved by a hydration reaction during the thermal decomposition of aluminum hydroxide around $300{\sim}500^{\circ}C$.

In order to increase the thermal stability at high temperatures, new hybrid ceramic percursors were synthesized by chemical modification of polycarbosilane (PCS). The structure of hybrid ceramic percursors were investigated by using FT-IR and $^1$H-NMR spectrometers. The syntheses of hybrid ceramic precursors were confirmed by monitoring the change of the adsorption peaks appearing at 0893, 1092, 609 $cm^{-1}$ / on the FT-IR spectra, and also by the presence of peaks at 3.8, 2.0, 0.6 ppm on the $^1$H-NMR spectra. The conversion of hybrid ceramic percursor was around 74 and 10 wt% higher than that of the pure PCS. After the heat-treatment at 150$0^{\circ}C$, the crystalline peaks for $\beta$-SiC were observed at 2$\theta$=35.7, 42.2, 61.0$^{\circ}$ on the X-ray powder diffractogram. It showed the conversion of hybrid ceramic percursor to crystalline $\beta$-SiC.
