This study analyzed a total of 37 studies about bi-lingulism and English education as a foreign language published in 8 academic journals in early childhood education or child development fields. Research topics, participants, methods, and variables in the studies were categorized and descriptively analyzed. The research findings which had been statistically investigated were also summarized. The most frequently studied research topics were children's development and English education program exposure, actual conditions of English education in preschool settings and effectiveness of specific English programs for preschool children. However, children's home characteristics were seldom included as research variables and no research investigated so called English preschools. Several studies reported that bi-lingual children may have different language development paths from mono-lingual children but they eventually have comparable language abilities to mono-lingual children. Also some studies reported that, when learning English as a foreign language in school settings, older children can handle more information regarding English than younger children, resulting in better outcomes of older children. Exposure to two languages in early childhood seems to contribute to young children's meta linguistic awareness but the long term effect of English education in early childhood should be further studied. Several English education programs for preschool settings were developed and the effectiveness were investigated. Even though most of them reported that their programs were effective to children's English ability or interests, the results should be carefully interpreted because their research designs and methods were not rigorous.

We propose a method utilizing BLEU(BiLingual Evaluation Understudy), which is widely used in automatic evaluation of machine translations, for an autonomous assessment of a short essay answer. BLEU evaluates translations with an assumption that the translation by a machine is supposed to be more accurate as it is getting to be more similar to the translation by a human. BLEU scores the translation by comparing the n-grams of translations by a machine and humans. Similarly we score students answers by comparing to multiple reference answers with BLEU. In the experiment, we compute correlation coefficient values between scores of our system and human instructors.

교차언어검색 시스템은 다양한 언어자원을 필요로 한다. 여기서는 한-일 대역어 사전과 일본어 문서의 바이그램 색인만을 이용해서 교차언어검색을 수행하는 방법을 제시한다. 한국어로 된 자연어 질의에서 형태소분석기 등의 도움 없이 간단하게 일본어 대역어 리스트를 생성할 수 있는 방법과, 검색의 성능을 올릴 수 있도록 대역어에 가중치를 부여하는 방법을 제안한다. 그리고 실험을 통해 제시한 방법을 평가하고 분석한다.

The emergence of systems biology in the 21st century is changing the paradigm of biomedical research. Whereas the reductionist approaches focus on components rather than time or contexts, systems biology focus more on interrelationships, dynamics, and contexts. The key ideas of the systems biology shares much with the philosophy of Korean Medicine(KM) and therefore, the paradigm shift is shedding light on understanding the mechanism of action of KM at system level. In this article, I provide a guide to learning systems biology for KM researchers using online learning resources. Thanks to the recent development of MOOC(massive open online courses) and other online learning platforms, learners can access to plenty of high-quality resources from top-tier universities in the world. I expect this guide help researchers to employ systems biology methods into their KM researches, and will lead to the development of future curricula for training "bi-lingual" experts, KM and computational approaches.

The objectives of this study were to research the power structure of the conjugal decision making process between husbands and wives and how to go about analyzing these processes. Furthermore, to statistically survey the similarities the differences of these between the Japanese and Korean cultures. The subjects of the study were women over the age of 20. The Korean wives resided in Taegu, the Japanese wives in Kobe. The questionnaire destributed to these subjects was bi-lingual in both Korean and Japanese. The data results are as follows : The frequency of negotiation was highest when the wife conceived an idealistic balance in the magnitude of authority arld control between she and her husband. On average, those wives who make decisions their husbands through negotiation do not have as high of a magnitude of control and authority as their husbands. These women idealistically believe that a balance of magnitude and authority exists between them and their husbands. On the other hand, in relationships where decisions are made without negotiation, the magnitude of the wife's authority increases as she idealistically perceives herself as being more powerful than her husband.

Recently, several attempts have been made to integrate AI into the field of dentistry. To overcome the limitations of traditional fixed prosthetic fabrication methods such as CAD-CAM (computer-aided design-computer-aided manufacturing), AI programs are being developed for automated crown fabrication, and various studies are underway to applicate in clinical situation. In these case studies, single-unit fixed prostheses were fabricated using an AI program (Dentbird Crown, Imagoworks Inc, Seoul, Korea) in both the anterior and posterior regions and the fabrication time and accuracy were compared with previously used CAD-CAM method. The first case is a 44-year-old woman who presented for re-fabrication of a zirconia prosthesis due to a prosthesis fracture on the lingual side of the upper right lateral incisor. The second case is a 53-year-old male patient who presented for a crown restoration on an upper left first molar following root canal treatment, where he received a final zirconia restoration. In both cases, the first prosthesis was designed manually using a CAD program, the second prosthesis was designed using AI alone, and the third prosthesis was designed using AI and then modified by CAD program, and the three designs were superimposed to compare suitability. When evaluated after temporary placement, the final prosthesis demonstrates adequate stability, retention and support, resulting in functional and esthetic satisfaction.
