The linewidth enhancement factor $\alpha$ and fiber dispersion of 1.55 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ strained multi-quantum well laser diodes are measured using small signal power modulation transfer function in a dispersive fiber. The measured fiber dispersion values are between 16.766 and 16.786ps/nm/km and these are the expected values from standard single mode fiber. To measure the $\alpha$ parameter in the actual operational range of the laser diodes, the dependence of $\alpha$ on laser output power is measured. The $\alpha$ parameter increases linearly as the power of the laser diode increases. This result can explain the non-linear gain effect on the $\alpha$ parameter more accurately than any other measurements.

The transform limited optical short pulses are generated by compression of pulses from a gain switched distributed feedback laser at 5 GHz repetition rate. The gain-switched pulses have the minimum pulse width of 27 psec with the spectral width of 1.1 nm. Thus the output pulses have a large amount of linear chirp and nonlinear chirp. We suppress the nonlinear chirp by passing the pulses through the optical band pass filter with 3 dB band width of 0.55 nm which is narrower than spectral width of the input pulses and generate 7.1 psec pulses by compressing the output with the dispersion compensating fiber. The pulses have time-bandwidth product of 0.49 which is close to the transform limited gaussian pulse. These pulses can be utilized as optical sources in 40 Gbit/s time division multiplexed optical transmission system.

Objectives : The aim of this study is to report the effect of Capsosiphon fulvescens(Maesangi) extract(MSE) on contact dermatitis(CD). Methods : CD induced by Dermatophagoides farinae body(Dfb) in NC/Nga mice. 4% sodium dodecyl sulfate(SDS) $150{\mu}l$ and Dfb(10mg/ml) ointment 100mg were topically treated twice a week for four weeks. MSE 200 mg/kg was topically treated every 4weeks. Every week, we examined the skin lesions, weight of spleen and lymph node, epidermal thickness, production of Tumor necrosis factor-alpha($TNF-{\alpha}$) and interleukin-6(IL-6). Results : MSE reduced features of Dfb-induced skin lesions, weight of spleen and production of $TNF-{\alpha}$. MSE significantly reduced weight of lymph node, epidermal thickness, number of mast cells and production of IL-6. Conclusions : MSE may have a potential therapeutic effects for CD by suppressing allergic inflammation.

Motor imagery based Brain-computer Interface(BCI), which has recently attracted attention, is the technique for decoding the user's voluntary motor intention using Electroencephalography(EEG). For classifying the motor imagery, event-related desynchronization(ERD), which is the phenomenon of EEG voltage drop at sensorimotor area in ${\mu}$-band(8-13Hz), has been generally used but this method are not free from the performance degradation of the BCI system because EEG has low spatial resolution and shows different ERD-appearing band according to users. Common spatial pattern(CSP) was proposed to solve the low spatial resolution problem but it has a disadvantage of being very sensitive to frequency-band selection. Discriminative filter bank common spatial pattern(DFBCSP) tried to solve the frequency-band selection problem by using the Fisher ratio of the averaged EEG signal power and establishing discriminative filter bank(DFB) which only includes the feature frequency-band. However, we found that DFB might not include the proper filters showing the spatial pattern of ERD. To solve this problem, we apply a band-selection process using CSP feature vectors and linear discriminant analysis to DFBCSP instead of the averaged EEG signal power. The filter selection results and the classification accuracies of the existing and the proposed methods show that the CSP feature is more effective than signal power feature.

In this paper, when both the refractive index grating and the gain grating exist in a 1.55um DFB laser with two cleaved mirror facets, when the phase of ρ_l is fixed to 0 and the phase of ρ_r is changed to -π/2, π, π/2, 0, the change in frequency and oscillation gain was theoretically analyzed. In the case of δL<0, the oscillation gain required for lasing is the lowest and the most stable frequency operation is obtained in the case of (ρ_l phase=0, ρ_r phase=0) and κL=10, when κL is varied from 0.1 to 10. In the case of δL>0, when (ρ_l phase=0, ρ_r phase=π) and κL=10, the oscillation gain required for lasing is the lowest and the difference between the oscillation gains of the higher-order modes is large so that the most stable frequency operation is obtained.

TM mode coupling coefficients for a generic five-layer DFB structure with trapezoidal and triangular gratings are calculated using the extended additional layer method. To determine the unperturbed field distributions of TM modes, a grating region is replaced by a new uniform layer whose inverse dielectric constant is the average value of the inverse dielectric constant of grating region in both longitudinal and transverse directions. Based on the self-consistent check, the validity of this method is established by comparing the results calculated by partitioning the grating region up to six uniform layers.

In fingerprints, singular regions including core or delta points have different directional characteristics from non-singular regions. Generally, the ridges of singular regions change more abruptly than those of nonsingular areas, thus in order to effectively enhance fingerprint images regardless of region, local ridge curvature information needs to be used. In this paper, we present an improved Directional Filter Bank (DFB)-based fingerprint image enhancement method that effectively takes advantage of such ridge curvature information. The proposed method first decomposes a fingerprint image into 8 directional subbands using the DFB and then classifies the image into background, low curvature, and high curvature regions using the directional energy estimates calculated from the subbands. Thereafter, the weight values for directional subband processing are determined using classification information and directional energy estimates. Finally, the enhanced image is obtained by synthesizing the processed subbands. The experimental results show that the proposed approach is effective in enhancing both singular and non-singular regions.
