Genomics research has two ultimate applied goals: to Isolate and clone genes of economic importance for bio-technology and gene-assisted selection (GAS), and to locate and use markers for marker-assisted selection (MAS) in selective breeding programs. To this end, we have identified linked markers for feed conversion efficiency growth rate, and disease resistance to enteric septicemia of catfish (ESC). Three microsatellite markers Ip266, Ip384, and Ip607 were identified to be linked to feed conversion efficiency. Similarly one marker each was identified to be linked to growth rate (Ip607) and disease resistance to ESC (Ip477). Ip607 marker linked to both growth rate and feed conversion efficiency, indicating that the QTL for both growth rate and feed conversion efficiency may either be the same or located in the same chromosomal region in the catfish genome. On phenotypic evaluation, certain traits such as growth rate can be accurately evaluated by body weight evaluation while other traits such as disease resistance can be quite complex. The linked DNA markers will be highly useful for MAS programs and for directing further efforts of genomic mapping for important quantitative traits.

This paper presentss flux-to-dose conversion factors for neutrons and gamma-rays based on the concept of the maximum absorbed dose. Neutron flux-to-does-rate conversion factors for energies from 2.5$\times$10$^{-8}$ to 20 MeV are presented while the conversion factors for gamma-rays are given in the energy range of 0.01 to 15MeV. Flux-to-does-rate conversion factors, which were calculated under the assumption that the radiation energy distribution has nonlinearity in phantom, are different from those values obtained by monoenergetic radiation. Especially, these values obtained here were determined for the cross section libray such as DLC-23, DLC-27, and DLC-31. The flux-to-dose-rate conversion factors obtained in this work are in a good agreement with the values presented by American National Standard Institute (ANSI) N666. These results are used to calculate the dose rate distribution of neutron and gamma-ray in any radiation fields, and will be useful for the radiation shielding analysis, radiation protection and radiation dosimetry concerned with problems of continuous energy distribution.

We investigated effects of electrical, physical, and chemical parameters on energy transfer, NO conversion, and light emission in the dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) process. As gap distance between electrodes increased, discharge onset voltage increased. However, as gap distance between electrodes increased, electric field which initiates discharge showed approximately the same value, 30kV/cm. The discharge onset voltage of the coarse surface electrode was lower than that of the smooth surface electrode. And, energy transfer was slightly enhanced in the coarse electrode condition. However, NO conversion rate decreased with the coarse surface electrode because more uniform discharge can be obtained on the smooth surface electrode. The NO conversion rate increased with decreasing the initial concentration, so the DBD process is more feasible in the lower concentration condition. The variation of gas residence time tested at the same energy density in the experiment did not affect on the NO conversion. The result shows that the NO conversion rate mainly depends on the energy density. The DBD process is able to adjust on plasma-photocatalyst process because it emits the short wavelength light in the range of ultraviolet. The intensity of light emission increased with the increase of the energy transfer to the reactor and the gas flow rate.

This study was carried out to determine the concentration of gaseous nitrate$(HNO_3)$ particulate nitrate$(NO_3^-)$ and conversion rate of NOx to nitrate in atmosphere in Seoul from Oct 1991 to July 1992. The average concentration of gaseous nitrate in daytime(09:00 - 17:00) was 9.93, 3.37, 7.40 and 10.40$\mug/m^3$ and, in highttime was 6.21, 7.31, 4.79 and 3.86$\mug/m^3$ respectively. The concentratin of $HNO_3$ was greater in summer and daytime than winter and nighttime. But the concentration of $NO_3^-$ was greater in winter and nighttime than in summer and daytime. The average conversion rate of NOx to $HNO_3$(Fn) indaytime was 13.18, 3.78, 9.13 and 23.13% and, in nighttime was 3.06, 1.37, 1.70 and 8.72% during fall, winter, spring and summer respectively. But the average conversion rate of NOx to $NO_3^-$(Fn') in daytime was 5.79, 5.77, 2.63 and 3.90% and in nighttime was 5.95, 6.51, 3.25 and 4.84% respectively. The average conversion rate of NOx to total nitrate $(HNO_3 + NO_3^-)$(Fn') was 12.72, 7.81, 7.82 and 18.40% respectively. The average conversion rate of NOx to $HNO_3$(Fn) was greater than $NO_3^-$(Fn') about 1.6 times.

In this paper we propose a new frame rate up conversion scheme which is used to overcome the motion blur problem of liquid crystal display caused by its slow response. The conventional bilateral motion estimation method which is mainly used in the frame rate up conversion scheme has a drawback that it cannot find true motion vector if there are blocks with simple texture in the search range. To solve this problem, a texture adaptive bilateral motion estimation method that increases cost value of block with simple texture is proposed. Also a motion estimation scheme that utilizes neighboring motion vector effectively is proposed to reduce computation time required to estimate motion. Since the proposed scheme does not apply all available motion vectors within the search range, the execution time of frame rate up conversion can be reduced dramatically. Experimental results show that the interpolated frame image quality of the proposed method is improved in subjective as well as objective view point compared with that of the conventional method.

We will deal with an n locus model in which mutation and gene conversion are taken into consideration. Also random partitions of the number n determined by chromosomes with n loci should be investigated. The diffusion process describes the time evolution of distributions of the random partitions. In this paper, we find the probability of distribution of the diffusion process with special diffusion operator $L_1$ and we show that the average probability of genes at different loci on one chromosome can be described by the rate of gene frequency of mutation and gene conversion.

An aftertreatment device which reduce exhaust gas of natural gas vehicle(NGV), NGV catalyst has important meaning as to reduce the exhaust emission. In this study, the characteristics of NGV catalyst were investigated and the effect parameters of NGV catalyst were analyzed and were predicted by changing the various parameters such as temperature, and gas concentration. The conversion efficiency of NGV catalyst converter was also predicted by Pd-loading, mass flow rate and gas composition.

This paper proposes new frame rate up-conversion algorithms. Adaptive motion estimation based on block complexity information are used to obtain more accurate motion vectors. Because the information on block complexity is extracted from the motion estimation prediction size from the original frame, additional computational complexity is not imparted. In experimental results, the proposed algorithms provide robust frame interpolation performance for whole test sequences. Also, the computational complexity of the proposed algorithm is reduced to a benchmark algorithm.

New display technologies including LCD and plasma panels and Digital Light Projection (DLP) systems all offer large screens and impressive picture quality. However, flat-panel displays require a sophisticated picture processing to let these panels perform at their optimum levels. This paper explains why motion compensating techniques combined with frame rate conversion and quasi-impulse driving reduces motion blur and film judder for flat panel displays and presents the IC and its system application using this technique.

The proposed algorithm decides the shape of blocks by the FD. The experimental results show that the proposed method has better performance than conventional methods.
