The optimum management of nutrient solution needs the effective combination of fertilizers as well as the accurate control of nutrient solution. This study was attempt to make a supporting system for effective fertilizer combination by using computer and also to develop a EC predicting equation for keeping the EC of solution within the allowable range after application of combined fertilizers. The supporting system consists of three parts : (1) data bases, (2) rules for deciding the kinds and amounts of fertilizers and (3) main control. With input data, the main control automatically constructs the network connecting the related data bases and subsequently executes the operation of searching proper fertilizers through it. For more effective searching, fertilizers are classified into two levels(level 1 and level 2) in consideration of solubility, price, and frequency in use, and searched in that order. The EC prediction equation, a extended form of the Robinson and Stroke's theoretical equation only available for a binary electrolyte, is suggested for predicting the EC of the nutrient solution containing many kinds of inorganic compounds. The comparison of predicted and measured ECs showed good agreements with the high correlation between the predicted EC decrement by ion interaction and the actual one(limiting EC minus measured EC).

With the development of sequencing technology, there is a need for technology to predict the function of the protein sequence. Enzyme Commission (EC) numbers are becoming markers that distinguish the function of the sequence. In particular, many researchers are researching various methods of predicting the EC numbers of protein sequences based on deep learning. However, as studies using various methods exist, a problem arises, in which the exact prediction result of the sequence is unknown. To solve this problem, this paper proposes an All Enzyme Commission (AEC) algorithm. The proposed AEC is an algorithm that executes various prediction methods and integrates the results when predicting sequences. This algorithm uses duplicates to give more weights when duplicate values are obtained from multiple methods. The largest value, among the final prediction result values for each method to which the weight is applied, is the final prediction result. Moreover, for the convenience of researchers, the proposed algorithm is provided through the AllEC web services. They can use the algorithms regardless of the operating systems, installation, or operating environment.

본 논문에서는 JPEG2000 부호화 시스템의 과도한 메모리 요구 사항을 감소시키기 위해 예측 부호화 기반의 새로운 임베디드 압축(Embedded Compression, EC) 알고리즘을 제안한다. 본 논문의 EC 기법은 EC가 적용되지 않은 DWT 프로세서와 비교하여 DWT 과정에서 발생하는 임시적인 저주파 웨이블릿 계수들의 메모리 접근 및 크기를 50 %로 줄일 수 있다. 무손실의 영상 압축 시스템에 널리 쓰이면서 단순하지만 좋은 성능을 갖는 LOCO-I(LOw COmplexity LOssless COmpression for Image)와 MAP(Median Adaptive Predictor) 예측기를 제안한 EC 알고리즘에 적용하였다. 제안한 예측 기반의 EC 알고리즘은 예측 오차 값들을 인코딩하기 위하여 포워드 적응형 양자화와 고정 길이 코드를 사용한다. 시뮬레이션 결과를 통해 예측기가 LOCO-I와 MAP인 경우, 본 논문에서 제안한 EC 알고리즘에 의한 평균적인 PSNR 저하는 각각 0.48 dB와 0.26 dB임을 알 수 있다. 선행 논문 [9]에서 제안한 하다마드 변환(MHT) 기반의 EC 알고리즘과 비교하여 평균적인 PSNR이 약 1.39 dB 향상된다.

As the automation of nutrient solution management proceeds in the field of hydroponics, effective supporting systems to manage the nutrient solution by computer become needed. This study was attempt to predict the EC of nutrient solution using the neural networks. The multilayer perceptron consisting of 3 layers with the back propagation learning algorithm was selected for EC prediction, of which nine variables in the input layer were the concentrations of each ion and one variable in the output layer the EC of nutrient solution. The meq unit in ion concentration was selected fir input variable in the input layer. After the 10,000 learning sweeps with 108 sample data, the comparison of predicted and measured ECs for 72 test data showed good agreements with the correlation coefficient of 0.998. In addition, the predicted ECs by neural network showed relatively equal or closer to the measured ones than those by current complicated models.

본 연구에서는 EC4의 내화설계 관점에서 표준화재하의 무피복 콘크리트충전강관기둥의 내화성능을 해석적으로 예측하는 개선된 방안을 제시하고자 하였다. Lawson 등이 제안한 콘크리트충전강관기둥에 대한 단면온도평가식의 한계를 분석하고, 기존 실험결과와 유한요소 열전달해석을 바탕으로 콘크리트충전강관기둥의 단면온도분포 예측식을 새로이 제안하였다. 본 연구에서 제안한 온도분포 예측식과 EC4의 내화설계법을 이용하여 예측한 콘크리트충전강관기둥의 축강도는 기존 설계법과 비교하여 더욱 정확하고 설계목적에 합당하다고 판단된다. 본 연구의 결과는 무피복 콘크리트충전강관기둥의 내화설계 및 성능평가에 매우 편리하게 활용될 수 있다.

Background: The aims of this study were compare the serum visfatin and resistin levels between endometrial cancer (EC) patients and controls and evaluate their power to predict prognosis. Materials and Methods: This prospective study was conducted between March 2013 to June 2014 on the Gynecologic Oncology Department of the University of Selcuk, Konya, Turkey. A total of 42 EC patients and 42 controls were included and assessed for differences in serum visfatin and resistin levels, along with prognostic factors. Results: Endometrial cancer patients had significantly higher visfatin levels than control s (p: 0.011), associated with deep myometrial invasion (p: 0.019). In contrast the serum level of resistin did not significantly differ between EC patients and controls (p: 0.362). However, high resistin level in EC patients was associated with increase lymph node metastasis (p: 0.009). On logistic regression analysis, we found that serum visfatin elevation was associated with risk of myometrial invasion (OR: 1,091; 95%CI: 1.021-1.166; p: 0.010) and serum resistin with risk of lymph node metastasis (OR: 1.018; 95%CI: 1.000-1.035; p: 0.046). For myometrial invasion prediction, a serum visfatin level greater than 26.8 ng/mL demonstrated a sensitivity and specificity of 66.6 % and 96.4%, respectively. For lymph node metastasis prediction, the best cut-off for serum resistin level was 599ng/mL. A serum resistin level greater than this demonstrated a sensitivity and specificity of 87.5% and 77.1%, respectively. Conclusions: Our data suggest that serum visfatin is elevated in patients with EC and serum visfatin and resistin levels could be used to predict the risk of advance stage lesions.

최근들어 구조물공사에 적용되는 콘크리트가 고강도화 되어가는 추세로서 크리프와 같은 콘크리트의 역학적 거동에 대한 기존 설계예측식에 대한 전면적인 검토가 필요한 시점이다. 이에, 본 연구에서는 현행 국내 철근콘크리트 구조설계기준상의 크리프계수 예측 모델식에 대한 강도대별 적용 타당성을 검토하기 위한 일환으로 기존의 제안 모델식인 ACI 209R, CEB-FIP MC90 및 EC2 모델식을 검토 하였으며, 실험결과와 비교검토를 수행하였다. 모델식 검토결과, CEB-FIP MC90 모델의 개선식인 EC2 모델이 고강도대의 콘크리트에 대한 크리프계수를 보다 현실적으로 예측함을 확인할 수 있었으며, 실험결과와도 상대적으로 좋은 상관성을 보임을 확인하였다.

Measurement of inhibition of bioluminescence in Photobacterium phosphoreum has been porposed as a sensitive and rapid procedure to monitor toxic substances. However, at first, $EC_{50}$ which shows degree of toxicity to each toxic substances must be calculated. QSAR (Quantitative Structure Activity Relationship) model can be used to estimate $EC_{50}$ to save time and endeavor. Moderately high correlation coefficients ($r^2{\geq}$ 0.97) were calculated from the linear correlation between $EC_{50}$ and molecular connectivity indices of CAHs (chlorinated aliphatic hydrocarbons)such as $^0X$, $^0X^V$, $^1X$, $^2X$ and $^3X^v_c$ and quadratic correlation between $EC_{50}$ and $^0X$, $^0X^V$, $^2X^V$, $^3X_c$, $^3X^V_c$ and P. It shows that the molecular connection indices in carbon structure is contributed to biological characters with linear relation and that in the other one with quadratic relation. The $EC_{50}$ of chlorophenol derivatives had quadratic relation with the value of octanol/water prtition coefficients ($r^2$=0.99) and linear and quadratic relation with the number of chlorine compound (($r^2{\geq}$0.94). This confirms the already known trend of increasing toxicity with increasing ability of a compound to diffuse through cell membrane and number of chlorine substitution.

In this paper, we propose a new error concealment (EC) method using inter-layer correlation for scalable video coding. In the proposed method, the auxiliary motion vector (MV) and the auxiliary mode number (MN) of intra prediction are interleaved into the bitstream to recover the corrupted frame. In order to reduce the bit rate, the proposed method encodes the difference between the original and the predicted values of the MV and MN instead of the original values. Experimental results show that the proposed EC outperforms the conventional EC by 2.8 dB to 6.7 dB.

최근 인터넷 상에서 제공되는 영상 서비스에 대한 요구가 증가하고 있다. 하지만 네트워크 환경에서 전송되는 데이터는 오류로 인하여 쉽게 손실될 수 있다. 특히 HEVC(High Efficiency Video Coding)와 같이 높은 압축률로 압축된 정보에 대한 전송 오류는 영상 복원에 심각한 영향을 끼친다. 따라서 네트워크 환경에서 일정한 화질을 유지하기 위한 오류 은닉(Error Concealment : EC) 방법이 필요하다. 본 논문은 HEVC EC 를 위한 PU(Prediction Unit) 기반 움직임 벡터 외삽법(Motion Vector Extrapolation : MVE) 모델을 제안한다. PU 는 예측의 기본 단위로써 PU 내에 동일한 물체가 포함될 확률이 높다. 따라서, 이 모델은 손실된 프레임의 이전 프레임이 갖는 PU 정보를 이용하여 PU 단위로 외삽(extrapolation)을 실시한다. 또한, 손실된 블록과 외삽 블록간의 관계를 고려하여 겹쳐진(overlapped) 외삽 블록 중 가장 작은 PU 크기를 EC 기본 단위로 결정한다. 이 방법은 PU 정보를 반영함으로써 블록 경계 오류(block artifact)를 감소시킨다.
