  • The emergence of viral diseases transmitted is nowadays a central problem in the world. Problem, which is becoming very critical in developing countries, where the health systems are not yet enough developed to face the bursting of such diseases. Emerging viral diseases constitute one of the major threats to human being that are arising in the modern world. Besides bio-chemical and medical researches, new orientations are developed to understand the environmental dimensions of such emergence. Questions concerning the inter-plays between the environmental and disease dynamics are building up new investigations, both in remote sensing and GIS, for the elaboration of levels of organization of space and environment in relation to incidences, to gain understandings in these issues. Environmental attributes attached to land cover types: area, spatial heterogeneity and physical state, are derived from remote sensing and applied to uncover related dimensions of the Dengue disease.

  • 목적: 최근, 미국 애리조나 세도나에서 열린 국제자기공명학회 (ISMRM) 주관의 2009년 데이터 샘플링과 영상 복원에 관한 워크샵에서 자기공명영상 복원 대회가 열렸다. 이 대회는 time resolved contrast enhanced MR angiography 에 대한 고속 촬영의 실제 활용 가능성을 평가하기 위한 것이었다. 본 논문은 이 대회의 우승 결과를 얻은 k-t FOCUSS 알고리듬을 단계별로 자세히 묘사하도록 한다. 대상 및 방법: 본 그룹은 앞선 연구에서 비교적 덜 스파스한 심장 영상에 대해 k-t FOCUSS 알고리듬이 성공적으로 압축센싱 문제를 풀수 있음을 증명했다. 따라서 k-t FOCUSS 알고리듬을 time resolved contrast enhanced MR angiography 에 적용함으로써, 매우 정확한 영상 복원이 가능할 것이다. 영상 복원을 위해 X-ray 대뇌 혈관조영 영상으로부터 구성된 다운 샘플링된 데이터가 대회 주최측으로부터 공통으로 제시되었고, 방사선과 의사들이 각 복원된 영상에 대한 사전 정보 없이, 원래 영상과 복원된 결과를 비교함으로써, 영상의 질을 평가하였다. 결과: 다양한 다운샘플링에 대해 얻어진 결과들은 영상의 스파스 변환이나 샘플링 형태와 같은 압축센싱의 중요한 요소들에 의해 크게 영향을 받는다는 것을 보여주었다. 결론: 복원된 결과로부터, 압축센싱 동적자기공명영상 기법인 k-t FOCUSS 가 고해상도의 time resolved contrast enhanced MR angiography 를 가능하게 할 수 있음을 확인하였다.

  • 결합된 플라즈몬-도파관 공진 (PWR) 구조에서 전파하는 TE, TM 전송 모드들의 바이오 센싱 특성을 조사하였다. 수치해석을 위하여 모드 전송선로 이론 (MTLT)을 사용되었다. 기존의 Ag-기반 표면 플라즈몬 공명 바이오센서의 감도를 향상시키기 위하여, 제안된 PWR 바이오센서는 N쌍의 MgF2-Si3N4 층으로 구성된 다층구조로 설계하였다. 그 바이오센서의 각도 감도가 광범위한 생물학적 용액 (굴절률 1.33~1.37)에 대하여 수치적으로 분석되었다. 더욱이, 암세포와 혈장 농도를 감지하는 센서의 가용성을 조사하였다. 결국, 그 결과들은 제안된 바이오센서가 소변에서 다양한 종류의 암 세포와 다양한 포도당 농도를 효율적으로 감지할 수 있음을 보여주었다.

  • A ribonucleic acid (RNA) is one of the two types of nucleic acids found in living organisms. An RNA molecule represents a long chain of monomers called nucleotides. The sequence of nucleotides of an RNA molecule constitutes its primary structure, and the pattern of pairing between nucleotides determines the secondary structure of an RNA. Non-coding RNA genes produce transcripts that exert their function without ever producing proteins. Predicting the secondary structure of non-coding RNAs is very important for understanding their functions. We focus on Nussinov's algorithm as useful techniques for predicting RNA secondary structures. We introduce a new traceback matrix and scoring table to improve above algorithm. And the improved algorithm provides better levels of performance than the originals.

  • Background: Subway stations have the characteristics of being located underground and are a representative public-use facility used by an unspecified number of people. As concerns about indoor air quality (IAQ) increase, various management measures are being implemented. However, there are few systematic studies and cases of long-term continuous measurement of underground station air quality. Objectives: The purpose of this study is to analyze changes and factors influencing IAQ in subway stations through real-time continuous long-term measurement using IoT-based IAQ sensing equipment, and to evaluate the IAQ improvement effect of a bio-filter system. Methods: The IAQ of a subway station in Seoul was measured using IoT-based sensing equipment. A bio-filter system was installed after collecting the background concentrations for about five months. Based on the data collected over about 21 months, changes in indoor air quality and influencing factors were analyzed and the reduction effect of the bio-filter system was evaluated. Results: As a result of the analysis, PM10, PM2.5, and CO2 increased during rush hour according to the change in the number of passengers, and PM10 and PM2.5 concentrations were high when a PM warning/watch was issued. There was an effect of improving IAQ with the installation of the bio-filter system. The reduction rate of a new-bio-filter system with improved efficiency was higher than that of the existing bio-filter system. Factors affecting PM2.5 in the subway station were the outdoor PM2.5, platform PM2.5, and the number of passengers. Conclusions: The IAQ in a subway station is affected by passengers, ventilation through the air supply and exhaust, and the spread of particulate matter generated by train operation. Based on these results, it is expected that IAQ can be efficiently improved if a bio-filter system with improved efficiency is developed in consideration of the factors affecting IAQ and proper placement.

  • 본 연구에서는 화학센서의 개발에 있어서 감지 대상 물질을 정확히 선택적으로 인식하고 그 결과를 물리적 신호로서 발산할 수 있는 분자시스템이 화학센서의 감지부에 도입되고 이러한 기술을 바탕으로 효율적인 감지기술의 개발이 요청되고 있어 미량의 중금속 이온 측정용 화학센서의 연구를 하였다. 본 연구에서는 감지 대상 물질로서 저 농도의 $Ag^+$, $Cu^{2+}$ 이온들을 통하여 이들에 대한 선택적인 감지 결과를 SPR 센서를 응용한 인식 기능성 감지 막 제조를 하여 측정대상 금속이온들에 대한 선택적인 측정을 하여 저 농도에서 매우 정밀 하게 감지 가능한 센서시스템을 구현하였다. 이 결과 DTSQ-dye를 이용한 감지 막 측정 결과의 경우 저 농도 $Ag^+$이온에 따른 공명각의 변화는 $Ag^+$ 이온의 최고농도인 $10^{-4}M$ 까지 공명각의 변화는 $2.17[^{\circ}]$이며, 다른 금속과 비교 시 약 4.3배나 되는 큰 공명각의 변화를 보였고, SQ-dye를 이용한 감지막 측정 결과의 경우 저 농도 $Cu^{2+}$ 이온에 따른 공명각의 변화는 $Cu^{2+}$의 최고농도인 $10^{-4}M$ 까지 공명각의 변화는 $2.3[^{\circ}]$이며 다른 금속과의 비교시 약 4.5배나 되는 큰 공명각의 변화를 보였다.

  • Biological sensory systems continuously monitor and analyze changes in real-world environments that are relevant to an animal's specific behavioral needs and goals. Understanding the sensory mechanisms and information processing principles that biological systems utilize for efficient sensory data acquisition may provide useful guidance for the design of smart-sensing systems in engineering applications. Weakly electric fish, which use self-generated electrical energy to actively sense their environment, provide an excellent model system for studying biological principles of sensory data acquisition. The electrosensory system enables these fish to hunt and navigate at night without the use of visual cues. To achieve reliable, real-time task performance, the electrosensory system implements a number of smart sensing strategies, including efficient stimulus encoding, multi-scale virtual sensor arrays, task-dependent filtering and online subtraction of sensory expectation.

  • The satellite remote sensing data is good in order to grasp the wide natural environment. The purpose of study is that it examines spectral reflection characteristic and vegetation index by the utilization of the plant energy ( chlorophyll ) for examining the reliability of satellite data and grasps the transition of the natural environment using the result. According to result of analysis, there were NDVI and mutual relationship on chlorophyll, and luminance compensation of NDVI was effective for all area. In vegetation transition, there were no luminance compensation and relation, and there was a decrease of vegetation in area in south and north. The reason was a result by the artificial and natural effect. This analysis is an effective method in order to confirm the change of specific vegetation.
