디지털 디바이스가 범용적으로 보급되면서, 영상을 획득하는 과정에서 다량의 부가적 백색 잡음 노이즈(additive white Gaussian noise, AWGN)가 발생하고 있다. 대부분 알려져 있는 대표적인 디노이징 기법들은 노이즈를 제거하는 것에 초점을 맞추고 있어, 영상정보를 포함하는 디테일 성분들이 노이즈를 제거가 되는 과정에서 비례적으로 없어지게 된다. 그러므로, 제안하는 알고리즘은 영상 디테일을 보존하면서 효과적으로 노이즈를 제거하는 방법을 제시하고자 한다. 제안하는 방법에서는, 노이즈의 랜덤성을 이용하여 엣지 강도 및 엣지 연결성을 이용하여 의미 있는 디테일 성분을 분리하는 것을 목적으로 한다. 결과적으로, 노이즈 수준이 높아져도, 제안하는 방법은 연결된 디테일성분을 효과적으로 추출하기 때문에 타 벤치마크 방법에 비해 나은 디노이징 결과를 보여준다. 또한, 실험결과에서 보듯이, 제안하는 방법은 다양한 노이즈 수준에서도 타 벤치마크 방법들에 비교하여 제안하는 방법은 SSIM(structural similarity index), PSNR(peak signal-to-noise ratio)측면에서 각각 우수한 수치를 보여주었다. 높은 수치의 SSIM의 결과로 알 수 있듯이, 결과 영상들이 인간의 시각인지체계(human visual system, HVS)를 반영하고 있는 것을 확증해 주고 있다.

The position of any point on the earth's surface can be. represented in the spherical coordinates by surface spherical harmonics. Since geomagnetic field is a function of position on the earth, it can be also expressed by spherical harmonic analysis as spherical harmonics of trigonometric series of $a_m({\theta})$ cos $m{\phi}$ and $b_m({\theta})$ sin $m{\phi}$. Coefficients of surface spherical harmonics, $a_m({\theta})$ and $b_m({\theta})$, can be drawn from the components of the geomagnetic field, declination and inclination, and vice versa. In this paper, components of geomagnetic field, declination and inclination in the Korean peninsula are obtained by spherical harmonic analysis using the Gauss coefficients calculated from the world-wide magnetic charts of 1960. These components correspond to the values of normal geomagnetic field having no disturbances of subsurface mass, structure, and so on. The vertical and total components offer the zero level for the interpretation of geomagnetic data obtained by magnetic measurement in the Korean peninsula. Using this zero level, magnetic anomaly map is obtained from the data of airborne magnetic. prospecting carried out during 1958 to 1960. The conclusions of this study are as follows; (1) The intensity of horizontal component of normal geomagnetic field in Korean peninsula ranges from $2{\times}10^4$ gammas to $2.45{\times}10^4$ gammas. It decreases about 500 with the increment of $1^{\circ}$ in latitude. Along the same. latitude, it increases 250 gammas with the increment of $1^{\circ}$ in longitude. (2) Intensity of vertical component ranges from $3.85{\times}10^4$ gammas to $5.15{\times}10^4$ gammas. It increases. about 1000 gammas with the increment of $1^{\circ}$ in latitude. Along the same latitude, it decreases. 150~240 gammas with the increment of $1^{\circ}$ in longitude. Decreasing rate is considerably larger in higher latitude than in lower latitude. (3) Total intensity ranges from $4.55{\times}10^4$ gammas to $5.15{\times}10^4$ gammas. It increases 600~700 gammas with the increament of $1^{\circ}$ in latitude. Along the same latitude, it decreases 10~90 gammas. with the increment of $1^{\circ}$ in longitude. Decreasing rate is considerably larger in higher latitude as the case of vertical component. (4) The declination ranges from $-3.8^{\circ}$ to $-11.5^{\circ}$. It increases $0.6^{\circ}$ with the increment of $1^{\circ}$ in latitude. Along the same latutude, it increases $0.6^{\circ}$ with the increment of l O in longitude. Unlike the cases of vertical and total component, the rate of change is considerably larger in lower latitude than in higher latitude. (5) The inclination ranges from $57.8^{\circ}$ to $66.8^{\circ}$. It increases about $1^{\circ}$ with 'the increment of $1^{\circ}$ in latitude Along the same latitude, it dereases $0.4^{\circ}$ with the increment of $1^{\circ}$ in longitude. (6) The Boundaries of 5 anomaly zones classified on the basis of the trend and shape of anomaly curves correspond to the geologic boundaries. (7) The trend of anomaly curves in each anomaly zone is closely related to the geologic structure developed in the corresponding zone. That is, it relates to the fault in the 3rd zone, the intrusion. of granite in the 1st and 5th zones, and mountains in the 2nd and 4th zones.

Purpose For living donor liver transplantation, liver segmentation is difficult due to the variability of its shape across patients and similarity of the density of neighbor organs such as heart, stomach, kidney, and spleen. In this paper, we propose an automatic segmentation of the liver using multi-planar anatomy and deformable surface model in portal phase of abdominal contrast-enhanced CT images. Method Our method is composed of four main steps. First, the optimal liver volume is extracted by positional information of pelvis and rib and by separating lungs and heart from CT images. Second, anisotropic diffusing filtering and adaptive thresholding are used to segment the initial liver volume. Third, morphological opening and connected component labeling are applied to multiple planes for removing neighbor organs. Finally, deformable surface model and probability summation map are performed to refine a posterior liver surface and missing left robe in previous step. Results All experimental datasets were acquired on ten living donors using a SIEMENS CT system. Each image had a matrix size of $512{\times}512$ pixels with in-plane resolutions ranging from 0.54 to 0.70 mm. The slice spacing was 2.0 mm and the number of images per scan ranged from 136 to 229. For accuracy evaluation, the average symmetric surface distance (ASD) and the volume overlap error (VE) between automatic segmentation and manual segmentation by two radiologists are calculated. The ASD was $0.26{\pm}0.12mm$ for manual1 versus automatic and $0.24{\pm}0.09mm$ for manual2 versus automatic while that of inter-radiologists was $0.23{\pm}0.05mm$. The VE was $0.86{\pm}0.45%$ for manual1 versus automatic and $0.73{\pm}0.33%$ for manaual2 versus automatic while that of inter-radiologist was $0.76{\pm}0.21%$. Conclusion Our method can be used for the liver volumetry for the pre-surgery planning of living donor liver transplantation.

There are several existing reports of microarray chip use for assessment of altered gene expression in different diseases. In fact, there have been over 1.5 million assays of this kind performed over the last twenty years, which have influenced clinical and translational research studies. The most commonly used DNA microarray platforms are Affymetrix GeneChip and Quality Control Software along with their GeneChip Probe Arrays. These chips are created using several quality controls to confirm the success of each assay, but their actual impact on gene expression profiles had not been previously analyzed until the appearance of several bioinformatics tools for this purpose. We here performed a data mining analysis, in this case specifically focused on ovarian cancer, as well as healthy ovarian tissue and ovarian cell lines, in order to confirm quality control results and associated variation in gene expression profiles. The microarray data used in our research were downloaded from ArrayExpress and Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) and analyzed with Expression Console Software using RMA, MAS5 and Plier algorithms. The gene expression profiles were obtained using Partek Genomics Suite v6.6 and data were visualized using principal component analysis, heat map, and Venn diagrams. Microarray quality control analysis showed that roughly 40% of the microarray files were false negative, demonstrating over- and under-estimation of expressed genes. Additionally, we confirmed the results performing second analysis using independent samples. About 70% of the significant expressed genes were correlated in both analyses. These results demonstrate the importance of appropriate microarray processing to obtain a reliable gene expression profile.

연속 영상을 이용하여 실시간으로 움직임 객체를 추출하고 추적하기 위해 배경분리(Background Subtraction) 기법을 주로 사용한다. 외부 환경에서는 조명 조건의 변화, 나무의 흔들림과 같은 반복적인 움직임 그리고 급격히 움직이는 객체 등과 같이 고려해야할 많은 환경 변화 요인들이 존재한다. 이러한 외부 환경의 변화를 적응적으로 반영하여 배경을 분리할 수 있는 배경 모델로는 주로 가우시안 혼합 모델 (GMM: Gaussian Mixture Model)이 적용되고 있으며, 실시간 성능 등을 개선시킨 적응적 가우시안 혼합 모델 등이 제안되어 사용되고 있다. 본 논문은 개선된 적응적 가우시안 혼합 모델을 적용하고 고정된 학습률 a(일반적으로 작은 값)을 사용함으로써 물체의 갑작스러운 움직임 등에 빠르게 적응하지 못하는 문제점을 해결하기 위해 가우시안 분포 수의 적응적 조절 기능과 픽셀 값의 분산 등을 이용하여 학습률 a값을 동적으로 제어하는 방법을 제안하고 성능을 평가하였다.

The coat protein (CP) of Turnip crinkle virus (TCV) is organized into 3 distinct domains, R domain (RNA-binding) connected by an arm, 5 domain and P domain. We have previously shown that the CP of TCV strongly suppresses RNA silencing, and have mapped N-terminal R domain of which is also the elicitor of resistance response in the Arabidopsis ecotype Di-17 carrying the HRT resistance gene. In order to map the region in the TCV CP that is responsible for silencing suppression, a series of CP mutants were constructed, transformed into Agrobacterium, coinfiltrated either with HC-Pro (the helper component proteinase of tobacco etch potyvirus) known as a suppressor of PTGS or GFP constructs into leaves of Nicotiana benthmiana expressing GFP transgenically. In the presence of HC-Pro, all CP mutants were well protected, accumulating mutant CP mRNAs and their proteins even 5 days post-infiltration (DPI). In the presence of GFP, some mutant constructs which showed the accumulation of CP mutants and GFP mRNAs at early stage but eventually degraded at 5 DPI. Only a mutant which carrying 4 amino acid deletion of R domain was tolerable to maintain suppressing activity, suggesting that the suppressing activity is not directly related with the eliciting activity. A transient assay also revealed that the mutants synthesized their proteins, suggesting that a full length of CP sequences and its intact structure are required to stabilize CP, which suppresses the RNA silencing.

We present preliminary results from a series of observations toward G108.8-00.8, which is one of Planck Cold Clumps and a promising candidate of massive prestellar cores. In the integrated intensity map of SCUBA 850 micron dust continuum emission, highly fragmented structures appear. These are distributed along one long filamentary structure seen in the CO 1-0 and 13CO 1-0 integrated intensity maps obtained with the PMO 13.7 m telescope. The northern part of the filament is divided into two parts, as seen in the CO 2-1, 13CO 2-1, and C18O 2-1 integrated intensity maps obtained with the CSO 10 m telescope. The observations of HCO+ 1-0, N2H+ 1-0, and HCN 1-0 with the IRAM 30 m telescope focus on the northern part of the CSO maps, which show a head-tail structure. NH3 (1,1) also shows similar distribution with IRAM maps. The depletion factors, derived by the comparison between the dust continuum and C18O 2-1 emission, varies from 1.5 to 6 over the region, suggesting different evolutionary status of each component. To study the chemical and physical environments of G108.8-00.8, more detailed analysis is in progress.

The mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling cascade is critical for regulating plant defense systems against various kinds of pathogen and environmental stresses. One component of this cascade, the MAP kinase kinases (MAPKK), has not yet been shown to be induced in plants following biotic attacks, such as those by insects and fungi. We describe here a gene coding for a blast (Magnaporthe grisea)- and insect (Nilaparvata lugens)-responsive putative MAPK kinase, OmMKK1 (Oryza minuta MAPKK 1), which was identified in a library of O. minuta expressed sequence tags (ESTs). Two copies of OmMKK1 are present in the O. minuta genome. They encode a predicted protein with molecular mass 39 kDa and pI of 6.2. Transcript patterns following imbibition of plant hormones such as methyl jasmonic acid (MeJA), ethephone, salicylic acid (SA) and abscisic acid (ABA), as well as exposure to methyl viologen (MV), revealed that the expression of OmMKK1 is related to defense response signaling pathways. A comparative analysis of OmMKK1 and its O. sativa ortholog OsMKK1 showed that both were induced by stress-related hormones and biotic stresses, but that the kinetics of their responses differed despite their high amino acid sequence identity (96%).
