This paper introduced a scheme for finding an optimal association matrix that represents the relationships between the measurements and tracks in multi-target tracking of Radar system. We considered the relationships between targets and measurements as MRF and assumed a priori of the associations as a Gibbs distribution. Based on these assumptions, it was possible to reduce the MAP estimate of the association matrix to the energy minimization problem. After then, we defined an energy function over the measurement space, that may incorporate most of the important natural constraints.

For detection and parameter estimation, a multicarrier radar should discriminate a channel containing jamming signal and either leave it out or regenerate jammer suppressed target signal. To discriminate jamming channels, we use the angular spectrum of an eigenvector that embeds target echoes and jamming signals. We propose a criteria to discriminate the jammer channels and its basis through mathematical analysis. Moreover, we show some procedures to regenerate the jammer suppressed target echoes. Finally, the validity of the proposed method is demonstrated through simulation results showing improved performance in terms of direction of arrival(DOA) estimation.

In this paper, a monopulse sensor which determines a target location using amplitude-comparison monopulse technique is presented. This sensor can allow the missile to track the target when additional jamming signals are not presented. Then, we applied the spot noise jamming technique to the monopulse sensor. Based on the simulation results, we can effectively figure out the performances of the spot noise jamming technique for the monopulse sensor in various jamming scenarios.

In this paper, we introduce a method of scattering centers extraction using the polarimetric data. VIRAF software based on the PO (Physical Optics) and PTD(Physical Theory of Diffraction) were used to calculate the surface scattering and the edge or wedge scattering, respectively. In addition, by using the unitary transformation, 4-channel data based on the linear polarization basis were converted to 2-channel data based on the left/vertical-circular polarization basis, leading to data compression coherently. The scattering mechanism was analyzed in terms of the polarization states and different look angles by using the scattering center of a target extracted by the 2D RELAX algorithm.

In this study, we evaluated the measurement of working environment, the amount of exposure, the hazards and risks of biphenyl, that was registered as 2A in IARC. Based on the exposure scenario, it was calculated that the exposure amounts are $1.0{\times}10^{-2}$, $4.2{\times}10^{-4}$, $7.0{\times}10^{-6}mg/m^3$, respectively, and the $RfC_{work}$ is 0.21, 2.13, 0.53 $0.31mg/m^3$ as carcinogenicity, target toxicity (oral), target toxicity (inhalation), developmental toxicity, respectively. According to these hazards evaluation and risk assessments, it was estimated that 0.57, 0.39 as carcinogenicity and non-carcinogenicity (developmental toxicity), respectively. It was also estimated relatively lower risks below 1. But since biphenyl is hazardous used much amounts, and could be exposed to workers directly, it was determined to require exposure monitoring to protect workers' health.

Compressive sensing allows recovering an original signal which has a small dimension of the signal compared to the dimension of the entire signal in a short period of time through a small number of observations. In this paper, we proposed a method for detecting tonal signal which caused by the machinery component of a vessel such as an engine, gearbox, and support elements. The tonal signal can be modeled as the sparse signal in the frequency domain when it compares to whole spectrum range. Thus, the target tonal signal can be estimated by S-OMP (Simultaneous-Orthogonal Matching Pursuit) which is one of the sparse signal recovery algorithms. In simulation section, we showed that S-OMP algorithm estimated more precise frequencies than the conventional FFT (Fast Fourier Transform) thresholding algorithm in low SNR (Signal to Noise Ratio) region.

This paper proposes a new guidance law for increasing the lethality of munitions. The well known PNG (Proportional Navigation Guidance) is inadequate for the munitions because of some weaknesses. Even if the munition does not have the impact point error, the acceleration command is non zero because the line-of-sight changes at all times in flight. Therefore, we use a difference between a target and an impact point. This proposed guidance law is similar to PNG in the form, but this guidance law concentrates a correction rate of flight path angle instead of the LOS (Line of Sight) rate. The correction of flight path angle is defined as the amount of impact point error. This impact point error can be calculated by neural networks rapidly. Finally, we show that the simulation results prove the suitability of this law.

유전자의 발현이 다양한 형태로 억제되는 것을 silencing이라고 한다. 유전자 발현억제 방법 중 antisense RNA는 자연 상태의 mRNA에 역상보적인 RNA 분자로서 형질전환된 세포에서 그 mRNA의 전이을 억제하는 데 이용된다. RNA분자에 대하여 상보적 염기배열을 갖는 RNA는 분자간 결합을 연결하여 RNA의 기능 발현에 억제적으로 작용한다고 생각된다. 미생물에 나타나는 유전자발현 제어기작으로서 어느 특정한 mRNA에 대하여 상보적인 RNA가 유전자 발현의 억제인자로서 작용하고 있는 예가 몇 가지 알려져 있다. 이러한 경우 antisense RNA는 mRNA 상의 전이개시영역과 상보적 배열을 하고 있고, 전이과정을 방해한다고 추정되고 있지만 작용기작의 상세한 내용은 아직 명확하지가 않다. 한편 안티센스RNA는 임의의 표적유전자에 대하여 인위적으로 제작할 수가 있기 때문에 인위적인 유전자발현제어의 한 방법으로 이용되고 있다. 특정한 유전자에 대한 antisense RNA를, 발현하는 유전자를 인위적으로 제작하여 세포내에 도입하면 표적유전자의 발현을 특이적으로 억제 제어할 수 있는 것이 기대되어, 다양한 생물체를 대상으로 하여 많은 시도가 이루어지고 있으며 몇 가지 성공적인 보고가 있다. 그 중 식물이차대사과정에 관련 유전자를 대상으로 antisense RNA 기법으로 유전자의 발현억제와 이차대사산물 생산조절에 관한 연구를 이 논문에서 조사하고 정리하였다.

The present investigation aims at inquiring into a possible target for the heat inactivation of SCK tumor cells by comparing the kinetics of cell survival, rate of protein synthesis, and DNA polymerase activity in the presence of heat protector or heat sensitirer. A possible conclusion to be drawn from the present experiment is that there is no direct correlation between cell death and decrease in the rate of protein synthesis, but that the loss of DNA polvmerase $\beta$ activity correlates quite well with cell inactivation. Thus, protein degrada-tion and/or abnormal protein synthesis causes cell inactivation innireuv, possibly by altering the cellular environment which in turn affects the DNA polymerase $\beta$ activity. Accordingly, further studies, dealing with the correlation between changes in the cellular environment and DNA polymerase $\beta$ activity, are needed to set insight into a possible target for the heat inactivation of cells. 본 연구는 열보호제 또는 열증감제의 존재하에서 세포 생존곡선, 단백질 합성률, DNA 중합효소 $\beta$의 활성변화를 비교 검토함으로써 SCK 종양세포가 열에 의해서 불활성화될 때의 표적이 무엇인지를 밝혀보기 위해서 수행되었다. 본 실험의 결과로 추정하건대 열에 의한 세포치사는 단백질 합성률의 변화와는 직접적인 연관성이 없으나, DNA 중합효소 $\beta$의 활성도와는 밀접한 연관성이 있음을 알 수 있다. 즉, 단백질의 분해 또는 비정상적인 단백질의 합성이 세포의 환경을 변화시키고 이것이 DNA 중합효소 $\beta$의 활성에 영향을 미침으로써 간접적으로 세포의 치사를 초래할 것으로 짐작할 수 있다. 따라서, 세포의 열불화성화의 표적을 좀더 분명히 밝히기 위해서는 세포의 환경변화와 DNA 중합효소 $\beta$의 활성과의 관계를 추구하는 연구가 수행되어야 할 것으로 사료된다.

In this paper, we propose a novel class separability measure for radar signals. To reduce the sensitivity of the relative aspect angle between a target and radar, to evaluate the discriminatory power of radar signals, the proposed method first calculates the correlation coefficients between two radar cross sections (RCSs) or linearly shifts one-dimensional (1D) radar signals (i.e., high-resolution range profiles (HRRPs)), or rotates two 2D radar signals (i.e., inverse synthetic aperture radar (ISAR) images). Then, it uses the maximum correlation coefficient when two radar signals are best aligned. Next, the proposed method obtains new correlation-based discriminant matrices (CDM) using maximum correlation coefficients. Finally, the cumulative distribution function (CDF) in the CDM and the value corresponding to the specific probability in the CDF are obtained, and this value represents the discriminatory power of the radar signal. Experimental results show that the proposed method can accurately measure the target separability.
