The effects of sizes and densities of cells cultured, conditioned medium, and media pH on the somatic embryogenesis of carrot (Daucus carota L.) were examined. A large number of globular embryoids was formed after 4 days in cell culture, and later globular embryoids developed into heart and torpedo shape. High cell density resulted in higher number and better growth of embryos, especially on conditioned medium than Murashige-Skoog medium. The fresh weight and number of embryoids formed increased with the decrease in cell size. The significant reduction in fresh weight and number of embryoids was obtained when culturing cells with diameter of over 90 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$. Dry weight and number of embryoids were markedly reduced with medium pH of 4 or 7, but promoted with pH 6.0.

This paper presents the development of the probability density function applicable for wave heights (peak-to-trough excursions) in finite water depth including shallow water depth. The probability distribution applicable to wave heights of a non-Gaussian random process is derived based on the concept of the maximum entropy method. When wave heights are limited by breaking wave heights (or water depth) and only first and second moments of wave heights are given, the probability density function developed is closed form and expressed in terms of wave parameters such as $H_m$(mean wave height), $H_{rms}$(root-mean-square wave height), $H_b$(breaking wave height). When higher than third moment of wave heights are given, it is necessary to solve the system of nonlinear integral equations numerically using Newton-Raphson method to obtain the parameters of probability density function which is maximizing the entropy function. The probability density function thusly derived agrees very well with the histogram of wave heights in finite water depth obtained during storm. The probability density function of wave heights developed using maximum entropy method appears to be useful in estimating extreme values and statistical properties of wave heights for the design of coastal structures.

This paper deals with the influences on the wall movements and earth pressure distribution for strutted diaphragm wall of various design depth ration and pre-displacement at strutted point. The numerical method is adopted for the study. The conclusions derived from the study were summarized as followes: 1. The elasto-plastic depth ratio in the passive region is found to decrease as such parameters as wall stiffness, soil density and penetration depth ratio decrease. 2. Values of maxium bending moments of the walls decrease with the increase of soil density, and the influence to the wall stiffness increases in proportion to the penetration depth. 3. Maximum strut reaction is found to be inversely proportional to the soil density. 4. Pre-displacement at the point of strut installation must be brougt into consideration on account of its active influence to the deflection of wall bodies.

The radial distribution functions of a linear spheroidal type gas molecule $C_2H_4$ were calculated by using the Stockmayer molecular molel, which assumed the $C_2H_4$ molecule as simple quadrupolar molecule. To examine the validity of the calculated radial distribution of $C_2H_4$ gas, the density dependent pressures of $C_2H_4$ gas at several temperatures were calculated and compared with literarily known experimental pressure data of $C_2H_4$ gas. The temperatures examined was 50, 100 and $150^{\circ}C$ and the densities were up to $0.02/{\AA}^3$ (maximum pressure = 1500 atm). The radial distribution function expression used was derived by Yoon, Hacura, and Baglin (YHB) with Baker and Henderson's perturbation theory. The calculated results by a computer showed that the $C_2H_4$ pressures calculated agreed well with the experimental values within ${\pm}5%$ of error range. This indicated that the YHB radial distribution function expression is good enough to obtain various physical quantities sensitive to density such as pressure with resonable accuracy.

국내 전력 계통은 경제의 성장과 더불어 생활 수준의 향상에 따라 지속적인 증설과 발전이 이루어졌다. 전력설비의 밀도 측면에서 비추어보면 미국이나 일본 대비 적게는 2배에서 많게는 4배에 이르는 최고 수준의 설비 밀도를 보이고 있다. 또한 전체 전력 생산량의 40%이상이 수도권에서 소비되고 있지만 발전설비는 최대 전력 수요지인 수도권과 먼 해안에 인접한 지역에 편재되어 있기 때문에 발생하는 수요와 공급지의 불균형, 장거리 선로를 통한 전력 전송에서 야기되는 전력계통 운영 측면에서의 문제가 발생하게 된다. 최근 화두가 되고 있는 원전 축소, 노후 화력 발전소 정지, 송전선로 경과지에서의 건설 고압 송전선로 건설 반대 등의 요인으로 인하여 전력계통을 최대한 효율적이고 안정적으로 운영하여야 하는 대전제를 만족시키기 위한 방안으로 기존 AC 기반의 계통 설비에 전력변환기술을 기반으로 하는 DC 계통 및 FACTS 설비의 확대 적용하는 방안이 제시되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 다가올 MV급 이상의 전력변환설비의 개념 및 개발 현황에 대한 소개를 하고자 한다.

We scrutinized the acoustic outputs from the 70 shock wave generators of the 15 product models whose technical documents were available, among the 46 ballistic extracorporeal shock wave therapeutic devices of 11 domestic and 6 foreign manufacturers, approved by the Minster of Food & Drug Safety (Rep. Korea). We found that the acoustic Energy Flux Density (EFD), the most popular exposure parameter, was different by up to 563.64 times among shock wave generators at their minimum output settings and by up to 74.62 times at their maximum settings. In the same product model, the EFD was shown to vary depending on shock wave transmitters by up to 81.82 times at its minimum output setting and by up to 46.15 times at its maximum setting. The lowest EFD 0.013 mJ/mm² at the maximum output settings was much lower (2.1 %) than the maximum value 0.62 mJ/mm² at the minimum settings. The Large acoustic output differences (tens to hundreds of times)from the therapeutic devices approved for the same clinical indications imply that their therapeutic efficacy & safety may not be assured. The findings suggest the regulatory authority to revise her guideline to give clearer criteria for clinical approval and equality in performance, and recommend the authority to initiate a post-approval surveillance as well as a test in conformance between the data in technical documents and the real acoustic outputs clinically used.

The cross-validation is a popular method to select bandwidth in all types of kernel estimation. The maximum likelihood cross-validation, the least squares cross-validation and biased cross-validation have been proposed for bandwidth selection in kernel density estimation. In the case that the probability density function has a discontinuity point, Huh (2012) proposed a method of bandwidth selection using the maximum likelihood cross-validation. In this paper, two forms of cross-validation with the one-sided kernel function are proposed for bandwidth selection to estimate the location and jump size of the discontinuity point of density. These methods are motivated by the least squares cross-validation and the biased cross-validation. By simulated examples, the finite sample performances of two proposed methods with the one of Huh (2012) are compared.

This paper Presents a new self-adaptation algorithm based on maximum a posteriori (MAP) eigenvoice for Korean connected digit recognition. The proposed MAP eigenvoice is developed by introducing a probability density model for the eigenvoice coefficients. The Proposed approach provides a unified framework that incorporates the Prior model into the conventional eigenvoice estimation. In self-adaptation system we use only one adaptation utterance that will be recognized, we use MAP eigenvoice that is most robust adaptation. In series of self-adaptation experiments on the Korean connected digit recognition task. we demonstrate that the performance of the proposed approach is better than that of the conventional eigenvoice algorithm for a small amount of adaptation data.

본 논문에서는 SCHMM에 적용된 관찰 확률 최대화에 의한 화자 적응 알고리즘을 제안한다. 제안된 알고리즘은 SCHMM의 관찰 확률 밀도들이 새로운 화자의 음성 특징을 잘 표현하지 못하는 경우 인식 성능이 저하되는 것을 막기 위하여, 적응 데이터의 각 특징 벡터들이 최대의 관찰 확률을 가질 수 있도록 관찰 확률 밀도를 결정하는 평균 벡터 μ와 분산 행렬 Σ를 기울기 탐색(gradient search) 알고리즘에 의해 반복적으로 적응시켜 주는 방법이다. SCHMM의 상태 천이 확률 A와 혼합 밀도 계수 C는 관찰 확률 밀도 적응 과정 을 거친 후, 적응 데이터로부터 구한 확률과 기존 확률의 가중 평균을 취하는 과정을 반복 하여 적응시켜 주었다. 제안된 화자 적응 알고리즘을 사용하여 단독음 인식 실험을 수행한 결과, 화자 적응을 수행하지 않았을 때와 비교하여 화자 독립 시스템에서는 평균 9.8%, 남 성 화자 종속 시스템에서는 평균 46.0%, 여성 화자 종속 시스템에서는 평균 52.7%의 인식 률 향상을 보였다.

Sihs minimum strain energy density criterion(SED) often used in the mixed mode problem has the ambiguity of the choice of minimum values. In this paper, as the method to solve the problem of SED, maximum minimum strain energy density criterion is proposed that the crack propagates in the direction of having the maximum among the minimum values of modified strain energy density factor(MS), i.e., sign($\sigma$(sub)$\theta$).Smin.
