This study aimed to isolate and characterize wild yeast strains from the vineyard soil in Korea. Twenty yeast strains were isolated from vineyard soil in Gimpo-si, Gyeonggi-do, Korea, where Vitis labrusca cv. Campbell Early is grown. Eighteen strains were previously recorded in Korea. The remaining two, Cyberlindnera mrakii VG-21-10C and Starmerella bacillaris GR9 were not previously recorded in Korea. The mycological characteristics of VG-21-10C and GR9 were investigated. Both were oval-shaped, convex, and smooth. However, differences were evident in colony color and carbon assimilation activities. Strain VG-21-10C is white-colored and assimilates glucose, glycerol, D-xylose, D-cellobiose, D-saccharose, and D-raffinose as carbon sources. Strain GR9 is cream-colored and assimilates glucose, D-saccharose, and D-raffinose as carbon sources.

In order to investigate the effects of growth regulators on the formation of capsaicinoids in callus of Capsicum annuum L. tissues were cultured in the Linsmaier and Skoog RM 1964 medium containing various growth regulators. Production of capsaicinoids during culture was monitored by gas chromatography. In the presence of $10^{-6}M$ of 2,4-D and kinetin in the medium, $1182{\mu}g$ of capsaicinoids were formed per 100g dry wt. of tissue, of which was greater than with any of three other growth regulators. IAA, NAA, and kinetin of same concentrations had 65%, 38%, 68% effect of 2.4-D in capsaicinoids formation, respectively. Production of capsaicinoids increased gradually in the presence of 2,4-B as culture period was proceeded. Of phenylpropanoids formed, cinnamic acid and coumaric acid were not significantly different in their levels, although growth regulators were varied. On the other hand, caffeic acid and ferulic acid formation were highest in the presence of 2,4-D. Effects of kinetin and IAA were about 70 percent of that of 2,4-D, whereas NAA had only about 30 percent effect. Phenylalanine ammonia-lyase activity in cultured tissue was increased during the periods; 52, 81, and 209 n moles of cinnamic acid per g fresh wt. were formed after 5, 15, and 25 days of culture, respectively.

Purpose : In radiotherapy for cervix cancer, both 3-dimensioal radiotherapy (3D-CRT) and intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) could reduce the dose to the small bowel (SB), while the small bowel displacement system (SBDS) could reduce the SB volume in the pelvic cavity. To evaluate the effect of the SBDS on the dose to the SB in 3D-CRT and IMRT plans, 3D-CRT and IMRT plans, with or without SBDS, were compared. Materials and Methods : Ten consecutive uterine cervix cancer patients, receiving curative radiotherapy, were accrued. Ten pairs of computerized tomography (CT) scans were obtained in the prone position, with or without SBDS, which consisted of a Styrofoam compression device and an individualized custom-made abdominal immobilization device. Both 3D-CRT, using the 4-field box technique, and IMRT plans, with 7 portals of 15 MV X-ray, were generated for each CT image, and proscribed 50 Gy (25 fractions) to the isocenter. For the SB, the volume change due to the SBDS and the DVHs of the four different plans were analyzed using palled t-tests. Results : The SBDS significantly reduced the mean SB volume from 522 to 262 cm$^{3}$ (49.8$\%$ reduction). The SB volumes that received a dose of 10$\~$50 Gy were significantly reduced in 3D-CRT (65$\~$80$\%$ reduction) and IMRT plans (54$\~$67$\%$ reduction) using the SBDS. When the SB volumes that received 20$\~$50 Gy were compared between the 3D-CRT and IMRT plans, those of the IMRT without the SBDS were significantly less, by 6$\~$7$\%$, than those for the 3D-CRT without the SBDS, but the volume difference was less than 1$\%$ when using the SBDS. Conclusion : The SBDS reduced the radiation dose to the SB in both the 3D-CRT and IMRT plans, so could reduce the radiation injury of the SB.

Muscat Bailey A (MBA) wine was fermented using the indigenous Korean Saccahromyces cerevisiae strains S13 and D8, and the fermentation characteristics were compared with those of S. cerevisiae W-3, an industrial wine yeast. The strains S13 and D8 showed delayed alcohol fermentation compared with the W-3 strain, but the final alcohol contents of the S13 and D8 wines after fermentation were similar to those of the W-3 wine. The S13 wine showed significantly lower malic-acid content than the W-3 wine, but the D8 wine showed a similar level. Both the wines fermented using the S13 and D8 strains showed significantly lower acetaldehyde, methanol, and fusel oil contents, including n-propanol, iso-butyl alcohol, and iso-amyl alcohol, compared to the W-3 wine. Especially, the methanol content was 98.6 mg/L in the S13 wine and 112.0 mg/L in the D8 wine, which were much lower than 192.8 mg/L in the W-3 wine. The S13 wine obtained the highest score in terms of color among the three wines in the sensory evaluation, with lower Hunter's L, a, and b values compared to the W-3 wine.

FDM is one of the popular 3D printing technologies because of an inexpensive extrusion machine and multi-material printing. FDM can use thermoplastics such as ABS and PLA. The 3D-printed ABS parts fabricated by FDM are attractive in the automotive industry because of their weight. A 10% reduction in weight can increase the fuel economy by approximately 7%. To use 3D-printed ABS parts as automotive parts, we should evaluate the 3D-printed parts in terms of automotive reliability. In this study, 3D-printed ABS samples were evaluated using Ono's rotary bending fatigue test. We obtained an S-N curve for the 3D-printed ABS specimen from the finite-element analysis. The S-N curve can be useful in early-stage design decisions for 3D-printed ABS parts.

In this paper, the design of a 10-bit 40-MS/s pipelined A/D converter is implemented to achieve low static power dissipation of 70 mW at the ${\pm}2.5\;V$ or +5 V power supply environment for high speed applications. A 1.5 b/stage pipeline architecture in the proposed ADC is used to allow large correction range for comparator offset and perform the fast interstage signal processing. According to necessity of high-performance op amps for design of the ADC, the new op amp with gain boosting based on a typical folded-cascode architecture is designed by using SAPICE that is an automatic design tool of op amps based on circuit simulation. A dynamic comparator with a capacitive reference voltage divider that consumes nearly no static power for this low power ADC was adopted. The ADC implemented using a $1.0{\mu}m$ n-well CMOS technology exhibits a DNL of ${\pm}0.6$ LSB, INL of +1/-0.75 LSB and SNDR of 56.3 dB for 9.97 MHz input while sampling at 40 MHz.

Two steroidal saponins were isolated from MeOH extract of the rhizomes of Asparagus oligoclonos. Using the spectroscopic techniques of $^1H,\;^{13}C$ NMR and 2D NMR, they were identified as $3-O-[{\beta}-D-glucopyranosyl-(1{\rightarrow}2)-{\beta}-D-glucopyranosyl]-(25S)-spirostan-3{\beta}-ol$ and $3-O-{{\beta}-D-glucopyranosyl-(1{\rightarrow}2)-[{\beta}-D-xylopyranosyl-(1{\rightarrow}4)]-{\beta}-D-glucopyranosyl}-(25S)-spirostan-3{\beta}-ol$, respectively. They were first isolated from A. oligoclonos. The in vitro antibacterial activities as well as antibacterial spectrums against 20 bacteria strains were investigated with MIC test. Both saponins inhibited the growth of 10 bacteria strains at the concentration of$100\;{\mu}g/ml$.

In this paper, we propose a 3DTV system that considers user's view point and display environment. The proposed system consists of 3 parts - multi-view encoder/decoder, face-tracker, and 2D/3D converter. The proposed system try to encode multi-view sequence and decode it in accordance with the user's view point and it also gives a stereopsis to the multi-view image by using of 2D/3D conversion which converts decoded two-dimensional(2D) image to three-dimensional(3D) image. Experimental results shows that we are able to correctly reconstruct a stereoscopic view that is exactly corresponding to user's view point.

Studies on artificial intelligence have been developed for the past couple of decades. After a few periods of prosperity and recession, a new machine learning method, so-called Deep Learning, has been introduced. This is the result of high-quality big- data, an increase in computing power, and the development of new algorithms. The main targets for deep learning are 1D audio and 2D images. The application domain is being extended from a discriminative model, such as classification/segmentation, to a generative model. Currently, deep learning is used for processing 3D data. However, unlike 2D, it is not easy to acquire 3D learning data. Although low-cost 3D data acquisition sensors have become more popular owing to advances in 3D vision technology, the generation/acquisition of 3D data remains a very difficult problem. Moreover, it is not easy to directly apply an existing network model, such as a convolution network, owing to the variety of 3D data representations. In this paper, we summarize the 3D deep learning technology that have started to be developed within the last 2 years.

Induction of regeneration and maturation for the free-living gametophytes of Ecklonia cava Kjellman was conducted under various temperature, irradiance and photoperiod conditions. Culture conditions for female or male gametophyte fragments were 4 temperature (5, 10, 15 and $20^{\circ}C$), 4 irradiance (5, 10, 20 and $40{\mu}mol{\cdot}m^{-2}{\cdot}s^{-1}$) and 3 photoperiod (14:10, 12:12 and 10:14 h L:D). Female and male gametophyte fragments were maintained in active regeneration without reaching sexual maturity under $5{\sim}10^{\circ}C$, $5{\sim}10{\mu}mol{\cdot}m-2{\cdot}s-1$, 12:12h or 10:14h (L:D) and $15-20^{\circ}C$, $20-40{\mu}mol{\cdot}m^{-2}{\cdot}s^{-1}$, 14:10h (L:D), respectively. Sexual maturation of female and male gametophytes facilitated under $15^{\circ}C$, $20-40{\mu}mol{\cdot}m^{-2}{\cdot}s^{-1}$, 14:10h (L:D) and $5-10^{\circ}C$, $5-10{\mu}mol{\cdot}m^{-2}{\cdot}s^{-1}$, 10:14h (L:D), respectively. These results provide basic informations to control the regeneration or maturation of the free-living gametophytes for artificial seed production of E. cava.
