임의의 형상을 갖는 진동체에 의한 방사 음장해석은 경계요소법에 의하여 이미 많은 해석이 시도되었다. 그러나, 진동체의 형상이 매우 복잡한 경우에는 겉표면의 요소수가 크게 증가할 뿐만 아니라 각 요소에서의 경계조건을 모두 알아내어야 하므로, 저주파에 국한된 해석일지라도 엄청난 시간과 노력이 필요하게 된다. 이러한 어려움을 극복하기 위하여 경계요소법을 사용하되, 복잡한 형상의 진동체를 둘러싸는 가상적인 표면을 매우 간단하게 설정한 후 그 표면상의 경계조건인 음압을 측정한다. 임의의 형상에 대한 파수 영역에서의 감쇠파의여파작업을 위하여 특이값 분리를 사용하였다. 특이값 분리에 의하여 음압분포를 측정위치에서 설정된 일반 좌표계에서의 고유모드로 분해한다. 각 고유모드의 원거리 음장의 기여도에 해당하는 각 특이벡터에 대한 특이값의 크기를 비교하여, 유한개의 고유모드만을 포함시킴으로써 원거리 음장을 예측한다. 몇 개의 예제를 통하여 해석적 방법의 기존의 경계요소법에 의한 결과를 본 연구 방법의 결과와 비교하여 잘 일치함을 확인하였다.

본 논문에서는 지문영상으로부터 제안한 알고리즘을 이용하여 특이점(Core, Delta)을 추출한 후 특이점의 개수와 종류에 따라서 5가지 부류(arch, tented arch, left loop, right loop, whorl)로 지문영상을 분류하였다. 지문영상을 8*8블록과 16*16블록으로 분할한 후 3*3 Sobel 마스크를 씌워서 대표 방향을 구하였다. 또한 블록으로 분할한 영상으로부터 분산을 구하여 전경과 배경을 분리(segmentation)시켜 수행속도를 향상시켰다. 전처리 과정으로는 일정한 블록마다 임계값을 다르게 적용시키는 블록 이진화 기법을 사용하였으며 특이점을 추출하기 위해서 서로 크기가 다른 2개의 블록으로 영상을 분할하였다. 우선 8*8블록으로 영역을 분할한 후 방향 성분을 구하고 특이점들을 추출하였다. 이 경우 잡영 때문에 특이점이 너무 많이 추출되는 문제점이 있으므로 이러한 해결책으로 16*16블록으로 영역을 분할하여 방향 성분을 구하고 특이점을 추출하였다. 이렇게 다른 두 영역에서 동시에 나타나는 특이점을 후보 특이점으로 잡아서 그 후보 특이점 주변으로 Poincare 지수를 적용하여 확실한 특이점을 선택한 후 5가지의 지문 형태로 분류하였다. 실험결과 대부분의 지문영상에 대하여 강건한 분류 특성을 보이고 있음을 확인하였다.

We propose a new algorithm to extract the fetal electrocardiogram (FECG) from a multi-channel electrocardiogram (ECG) recorded at the chest and abdomen of a pregnant woman. To extract the FECG from the composite abdominal ECG, the classical time-domain method based on singular value decomposition (SVD) has been generally used. However, this method has some disadvantages, such as its high degree of computational complexity and the necessary assumption that vectors between the FECG and the maternal electrocardiogram (MECG) should be orthogonal. The proposed algorithm, which uses SVD in a discrete cosine transform (DCT) domain, compensates for these disadvantages. To perform SVD with lower computational complexity, DCT coefficients corresponding to high-frequency components were eliminated on the basis of the properties of the DCT coefficients and the frequency characteristics of the FECG. Moreover, to extract the pure FECG with little influence of the direction of the vectors between the FECG and MECG, three new channels were made out of the MECG suppressed in the composite abdominal ECG, and the new channels were appended to the original multi-channel ECG. The performance of the proposed algorithm and the classical time-domain method based on SVD were compared using simulated and real data. It was experimentally verified that the proposed algorithm can extract the pure FECG with reduced computational complexity.

Electrical impedance tomography is a nondestructive imaging technique to reconstruct unknown conductivity distribution based on applied current data and measured voltage data through an array of electrodes attached on the periphery of a domain. In this paper, an inverse method based on truncated singular value decomposition is proposed to solve the inverse problem with the generalized Tikhonov regularization and to reconstruct the conductivity distribution. In order to reduce the inverse computational time, truncated singular value decomposition is applied to the inverse term after the generalized regularization matrix is taken out from the inverse matrix term. Numerical experiments and phantom experiments have been performed to verify the performance of the proposed method.

The contribution analysis of various external aeroacoustic noise sources to interior noise is important, enabling to design an automobile with a low interior noise level. With a new technique, the CD (Cholesky Decomposition), it is proposed to decompose an overall interior noise spectrum into multiple spectra, each representing the contribution of a specific noise source to the interior noise. In order to validate this method, three kinds of experiments were conducted. Furthermore, it is proposed to improve the CD-based contribution analysis method to be integrated with existing exterior microphone arrays in the wind tunnel. This method was validated with an experiment with two speakers.

Dynamic positron emission tomography(dPET) is widely used medical imaging modality that can provide both physiological and functional neuro-image for diagnosing various brain disease. However, dPET images have low spatial-resolution and high noise level during spatio-temporal analysis (three-dimensional spatial information + one-dimensional time information), there by limiting clinical utilization. In order to overcome these issues for the spatio-temporal analysis, a novel computational technique was introduced in this paper. The computational technique based on singular value decomposition classifies multiple independent components. Signal components can be distinguished from the classified independent components. The results show that signal to noise ratio was improved up to 30% compared with the original images. We believe that the proposed computational technique in dPET can be useful tool for various clinical / research applications.

In Citrus, an $F_1$ segregation population of 150 plants was constructed from a cross between 'Kiyomi' (C. unshiu ${\times}$ C. sinensis) carrying the male sterility trait and 'Jinkyool' (C. sunki). Sequence-related amplification polymorphism (SRAP) combined with bulked segregant analysis was used to develop markers linked to male fertility. In the $F_1$ population, 66 out of 150 seedlings had aborted anthers and the ratio of male sterile plants to fertile plants in the progenies matched the expected Mendelian segregation ratio of 1:1 ($x^2$ =2.16 at p=0.05). From the profiling of the 197 SRAP primer sets, three SRAP primer sets (F4/R27, F39/R60, and F15/R37) that were closely linked to the target trait were identified and successfully converted into a sequence characterized amplified region (SCAR) marker for selection of male fertility in citrus. The SCAR marker, using the pMS 33U/pMS 1462L primer set specifically, produced a single 1.4-Kb fragment that was linked to male fertility. Our results suggested that this SCAR marker can be useful for marker-assisted selection of male sterile individuals in breeding $F_1$ progenies in Citrus.

There are several methods in the mathematical modeling of a satellite with flexible appendages. In this paper, the hybrid Lagrange's equations of motion using assumed modes method are derived. The assumed modes method is one of approximate methods which have shorter calculation time due to low-dimension compare with FEM. These consist of three-equations about angular velocities and two-equations about flexible deformations, and physically represent interaction between hub and solar panel. In an attitude control, a control law is designed to minimize a given performance index considering not only control input but also vibration suppression. For these purpose, this paper applies LQG and LQG/LTR schemes to this model and finally show the capability for attitude control including vibration suppression. Especially, this paper shows the method of assumption as nonsingular system through singular value division for LQG/LTR design.

An outer membrane-associated 2-furaldehyde dehydrogenase, catalyzing the oxidation of 2-furaldehyde to 2-furoic acid from Klebsiella pneumoniae was purified to homogeneity and characterized. The enzyme showed its highly specific dependency on $\beta$-$NAD^{+}$. Enzyme activity was monitored during purification by using substrate 2-furaldehyde and coenzyme $\beta$-$NAD^{+}$ by means of high performance liquid chromatography. The outer membrane was successfully collected by the methods of Percoll density gradient ultracentrifugation and ultracentrifugation after preferential solubilization of the membrane with $Mg^{2+}$ and Triton X-100. The enzyme was purified by the series of procedures including extraction of outer membrane protein with EDTA and lysozume, and fractionation by column chromatography on QAE-Sephades Q-50, and subsequently Sephadex G-100. The enzume showed its optimal activity at $85^{\circ}C$, pH 9.5, and in the presence of 1.5% (vol/vol) Triton X-100. The enzyme exhibited a native molecular size of 88,000 by nondenaturing polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and had an apparent Km of 4.72mM for 2-furaldehyde.

A cholesterol esterase-producing microorganism, strain CES 506, isolated from soil was identified as Aeromonas sp. This strain produce about 0.023 units of cholesterol esterase per ml of culture broth. The cholesterol esterase produced by this strain was purified, 370 fold to homogeneity in an overall yield of 24% from culture broth. The apparent molecular weight was 64, 000, as estimated by sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The enzyme showed a high substrate specificity for cholesterylpalmitate and the Km value for the hydrolysis of cholesterylpalmitate by this enzyme were 0.15mM.
