The microfloral changes of lactic acid bacteria during Kimchi fermentation at 5, 20 and $30^{\circ}C$ were compared by using various selective media, and the lactic acid bacterial strains were isolated and identified. The patterns of microfloral changes in each lactic acid bacterial group, leuconostoc, lactobacilli, streptococci and pediococci, were similar at different fermentation temperature, and the changes were accelerated by increased temperature. Among them, leuconostoc and lactobacilli showed high population, and at low temperature the number of leuconostoc were higher than at high temperature. Leuconostoc and streptococci were increased in number from the beginning, but they rapidly decreased after the optimum ripening period. Pediococci increased their number after streptococci, but they were rapidly decreased later. Lactobacilli were highly distributed throughout the whole fermentation period. However, they were slightly declined as the acidity increased. Those strains of leuconostoc, streptococci, pediococci and lactobacilli were identified as Luuconostoc mesenteroida subsp. musenteroides, Streptococcus fuecalzs, S, faeciurn, Pediococcus pentosaceus, Lactobacillus plarttarum, L. sake and L. brevis. Among lactobacilli, Id. sake and L. brmk, and L. plantarum were isolated mainly at the beginning and around the overripening period of fermentation, respectively.

Gas chromatography using sulfur chemiluminescence detection (GC-SCD) which exhibits very good selectivity, linearity, and sensitivity was applied to the analysis of suIfur compounds in gaseous fuel. The expectmental method used in this study was to resolve the problems of repeatability and reproducibility by means of the adsorption of sulfur compounds, which is different from the existing analysis method of these compounds by GC-SCD. The calibration curves of the standard gases including dimethyl sulfide, t-butylmercaptan and ethyl methyl sulfide exhibited an excellent linearity. As the result of precision tests for the above three compounds, the high reproducibility for tests showed while repeating three times during four days, respectively. In addition, the coefficient of variation was less than 3%. In consequence, the expectmental method of this study is very effective not only with low uncertainty but also with better accuracy, which can quickly determine the concentration of gas odorants in LPG (Liquefied Petroleum Gas) from oil reservoirs and filling stations.

The Saturation headway is a major parameter in estimating the intersection capacity and setting the signal timing. But Existing algorithms are still far from being robust in dealing with factors related to the variation of saturation headways at signalized intersections. So this study apply the fuzzy inference system using ANFIS. The ANFIS provides a method for the fuzzy modeling procedure to learn information about a data set, in order to compute the membership function parameters that best allow the associated fuzzy inference system to track the given input/output data. The climate conditions and the degree of brightness were chosen as the input variables when the rate of heavy vehicles is 10-25 %. These factors have the uncertain nature in quantification, which is the reason why these are chosen as the fuzzy variables. A neuro-fuzzy inference model to estimate saturation headways at signalized intersections was constructed in this study. Evaluating the model using the statistics of $R^2$, MAE and MSE, it was shown that the explainability of the model was very high, the values of the statistics being 0.993, 0.0289, 0.0173 respectively.

A multiple-trait stochastic computer simulation model was constructed to predict the breeding schemes and selection methods on Hanwoo(Korean cattle). The model could be used four kinds of selection criteria (random, phenotype and true or estimated breeding values). At the test run in various population size for 20 years, all estimated parameters of the each simulated populations were resulted similar to input parameters. The deviations between input and output values of parameter in the large population were smaller than in the small population. The simulated results obtained from ten small populations consisted with one sire and ten dams in each population for 500 years were as follows; Inbreeding coefficients of population were similar to theoretical estimating function. Mean values of each traits selected were randomly drifted by generation, but they were converged into a value when inbreeding coefficients came close to one. Additive genetic variances within each population were reduced by generation, and they were converged into zero when inbreeding coefficients came close to one. These results indicated that the simulated populations hold to statistical properties of input parameters.

We estimate $CO_2$ emissions in Korea industry, 1990 and 2000 using a commodity- by-industry IO model ($CO_2$ hybrid IO mode]). Estimated $CO_2$ emissions in industries include both $CO_2$ emissions from direct and indirect consumption. The results show that total $CO_2$ emissions has increased by 51.6 million TC (Tonne of Carbon) from 64.4 million TC in 1990 to 115.5 million TC in 2000. By applying the structural decomposition analysis technique, we decompose change of $CO_2$ emissions in Korea industry between the period 1990~2000. In the decomposition, we figure out two contributing factors, changes in $CO_2$ coefficient and changes in final demand. The latter is further decomposed as growth effects and structural effects. We also estimated each factor's contribution to the changes in $CO_2$ emissions in industries between 1990~2000. The analysis can be used as a useful resource for policy makers in improving the effectiveness of $CO_2$ emissions mitigation policy.

The anisotropic behavior of rocks is primarily attributed to the directional arrangement of rock-forming minerals and the distribution characteristics of microcracks. Notably, sedimentary and metamorphic rocks often exhibit distinct transverse isotropy in terms of their strength and deformation characteristics. Consequently, it is crucial to gain accurate insights into the deformation and failure characteristics of transversely isotropic rocks during rock mechanics design processes. The deformation of such rocks is described by five independent elastic constants, which are determined through laboratory testing. In this study, the characteristics of the directional variation of apparent elastic constants in transversely isotropic rocks were investigated using experimental data reported in the literature. To achieve this, the constitutive equation proposed by Mehrabadi & Cowin was introduced to calculate the apparent elastic constants more efficiently and systematically in a rotated Cartesian coordinate system. Four transversely isotropic rock types from the literature were selected, and the influence of changes in the orientation of the weak plane on the variations of the apparent elastic modulus, apparent shear modulus, and apparent Poisson's ratio was analyzed. Based on the investigation, a new constraint on the elastic constants has been proposed. If the proposed constraint is satisfied, the directional variation of the apparent elastic constants in transversely isotropic rocks aligns with intuitive predictions of their tendencies.

블록 기반의 적응적 루프 필터(BALF : Block Adaptive Loop Filter)는 압축 성능에 있어서 상당히 높은 효율을 보이는 기술 중 하나이다. BALF는 복원된 영상을 원본 영상에 최대한 유사하게 만드는 Weiner 필터계수와 해당 필터가 적용될 영역에 대한 정보를 복원된 영상에 적용함으로써 화질을 높일 수 있다. 그러나 BALF는 단위블록 전체에 대해 하나의 필터를 생성하여 적용하는 방법으로, 블록 내부에서 구분되는 신호적 특성을 따로 분류하지 않는다. 그러므로 BALF는 높은 부호화 성능을 보이는 반면, 높은 복호화 복잡도를 요구한다는 단점이 있다. 본 논문에서는 필터가 적용될 블록을 내부와 경계 영역으로 나누어 경계 영역을 위한 필터를 구분하여 생성하는 루프필터를 제안한다. 제안하는 알고리즘은 기존의 BALF에 비해 부호화 성능이 저하되지만, 필터를 적용할 영역을 선택 가능하게 함으로써 복호화 복잡도를 조절할 수 있도록 하였다. 제안한 방법의 실험결과, 기존의 방법인 BALF에 대하여 블록의 경계 영역 필터를 사용할 경우, 약 3.77%의 부호화 성능 저하에 대하여 약 33.76%의 필터링 속도 향상을 보였다.

Due to the large scale application of software systems, software reliability plays an important role in software developments. In this paper, a software reliability growth model (SRGM) is proposed for testing time. The testing time on the right is truncated in this model. The intensity function, mean-value function, reliability of the software, estimation of parameters and the special applications of Pareto NHPP model are discussed. This paper, a numerical example of applying using time between failures and parameter estimation using maximum likelihood estimation method, after the efficiency of the data through trend analysis model selection, depended on difference between predictions and actual values, were efficient using the mean square error and $R_{SQ}$.

본 연구에서는 티센망을 이용한 면적강우량 산정방법의 대안으로서 최근 들어 수자원공학 분야에의 활용성이 커지고 있는 고해상도 기상레이더의 반사도자료(dBZ)를 활용하여 면적강우량을 산정하였다. 또한 이렇게 산정된 레이더 면적강우량을 티센망으로써 산정된 면적강우량과 비교하여 그 유용성을 판단하였다. 연구지역으로는 소양강댐 유역을 선정하였으며, 연구기간은 2008년 가장 강한 강우를 보였던 상위 5개의 사상을 선정하였다. 본 연구에서는 레이더 반사도를 강우강도로 변환시키는 과정은 인공신경망(artificial neural network, ANN) 중에서 일반적으로 널리 사용되고 있는 다층 퍼셉트론 인공신경망 모형을 적용하였다. 연구방법으로는 선택된 4개의 인자를 입력노드에 넣어 인공신경망을 학습시킨 후 연구지역 내 10개 AWS 지상관측소의 강우량을 추정하여 정확도를 비교 분석하였다. 이를 바탕으로 최종적으로 레이더 면적강우량을 산정하여 기존의 티센망을 이용한 면적강우량과 그 값을 비교하였다. 그 결과 인공신경망을 이용한 레이더 강우량의 경우, 평균제곱오차(mean square error, MSE) 및 상관계수(correlation coefficient, CC)가 매우 양호한 값을 보였다. 또한 유역 내 레이더 면적강우량이 티센망을 이용한 면적강우량에 비하여 약 $7%^{\sim}19%$ 정도 차이가 발생함을 확인하였으며, 레이더 면적강우량이 티센망을 이용한 면적강우량에 비하여 더 정확한 면적강우량을 산정할 수 있다고 판단된다.
