Few-shot learning is a sub-area of machine learning problems, which aims to classify target images that only contain a few labeled samples for training. As a representative few-shot learning method, the Prototypical network has been received much attention due to its simplicity and promising results. However, the Prototypical network uses the sample mean of samples from the same class as the prototypes of that class, which easily results in learning uncharacteristic features in the low-data scenery. In this study, we propose to use local descriptors (i.e., patches along the channel within feature maps) from the same class to explicitly obtain more representative prototypes for Prototypical Network so that significant intra-class feature information can be maintained and thus improving the classification performance on few-shot learning tasks. Experimental results on various benchmark datasets including mini-ImageNet, CUB-200-2011, and tiered-ImageNet show that the proposed method can learn more discriminative intra-class features by the local descriptors and obtain more generic prototype representations under the few-shot setting.

In this study, the quality of mineral admixture, Comparison of blast-furnace slag(BS) and fly ash(FA)in Korea and China. In the case of BS, Korea is mainly classified into 1 type to 4 types according to the specific surface area, whereas China is classified into S105, 95, and 75 according to the activity index of 28 days of age. In the case of FA, Korea is like BS, is mainly classified into types 1 to 4 according to specific surface area, whereas China is classified into F, C (class F, class C) by ingredients and class I, II, and III according to powder and ignition loss.

Recently many countries have concentrated their effort on the port automation, in order to be the Hub-port, that the Ultra Large Container Ship could come alongside the Quay, in their region. As the magnitude of the container ship increase, that of the Quay crane increases from 50ton-class to 61ton-class more and more. The wind speed criteria to design the structures used in the port was upgraded from 20m/s to 40m/s due to change of the weather condition. Our laboratory could have the ability to design the wedge type rail clamp for 50ton-class Quay crane in 30m/s wind speed. Accordingly we analyzed the load condition of the Quay crane about 40m/s wind speed upgraded from 20m/s and designed the wedge type rail clamp for 50ton and 61ton-class Quay crane.

A superconductor flywheel energy storage system (SFES) is an electro-mechanical battery which transforms electrical energy into mechanical energy for storage, and vice versa. The 35 kWh class SFES is composed of a main frame, superconductor bearings, electro-magnetic dampers, a motor/generator, and a composite flywheel. The energy storing capacity of the SFES can be limited by the operational speed range of the system. The operational speed range is limited by many factors, especially the resonant frequency of the main frame and flywheel. In this study, a steel frame has been designed and constructed for a 35 kWh class SFES. All the main parts, their housings, and the flywheel are aligned and assembled on to the main frame. While in operation, the flywheel excites the main frame, as well as all the parts assembled to it, causing the system to vibrate at the rotating speed. If the main frame is excited at its resonant frequency, the system will resonate, which may lead to unstable levitation at the superconductor bearings and electro-magnetic dampers. The main frame for the 35 kWh class SFES has been designed and constructed to improve stiffness for the stable operation of the system within the operational speed range.

The protection performance and energy absorption capability are important for both MOAs for distribution lines and MOAs for high voltage systems, therefore the manufacturing technique of ZnO varistor elements with high ability against surge impacts is great important for high voltage systems. But until now ZnO varistors for low voltage class have been developed in Korea, ZnO varistors with the rate discharge current of 5, 10kA class for high voltage systems depend on an import from advanced countries, such as Japan or U.S.A, which have developed its in the late 1980s. So in the aspect of taking independent technique the development of ZnO varistors with the rate discharge current of 5, 10kA class for high voltage systems is important. In this research project ZnO varistor elements with diameters of 35mm and 70mm for the rate discharge current of 5, 10kA class for high voltage systems are manufactured, then various chemical composition and processing variables affected the electrical and the physical characteristics of these ZnO varistors are investigated.

Ginsenosides, which are the active materials of ginseng, have biological functions that include anti-osteoporotic effects. Aqueous ginseng extract inhibits osteoclast differentiation induced by receptor activator of NF-${\kappa}B$ ligand (RANKL). Aqueous ginseng extract produces chromatography peaks characteristic of ginsenosides. Among these peaks, ginsenoside Re is a major component. However, the preventive effects of ginsenoside Re against osteoclast differentiation are not known. We studied the effect of ginsenoside Re on osteoclast differentiation, RANKL-induced tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) activity, and formation of multinucleated osteoclasts in vitro. Ginsenoside Re hampered osteoclast differentiation in a dose-dependent manner. In an in vivo zebrafish model, aqueous ginseng extract and ginsenoside Re had anti-osteoclastogenesis effects. These findings suggest that both aqueous ginseng extract and ginsenoside Re prevent bone resorption by inhibiting osteoclast differentiation. Ginsenoside Re could be important for promoting bone health.

In order to improve students' interest, class participation and class comprehension in engineering theory classes, a class applying review games as Jinjinga, Bingo, etc. were designed and developed. Through applying them to three engineering theory subjects, the specific effects of the strategy on students' understanding, interest, participation, and academic achievement were analyzed and the usefulness of each review game strategy was analyzed. Analyzing class data over the past 11 years, there was a clear correlation between performance of the students in the review game and their actual grades, which was found to be greater than the negative effect of absence rate on the test performance or grades. This study also researched students' perceptions compared to other general subjects not applying the review games. The results of a survey of the students who took the review game class showed the usual amount of usual studying hours increased, the burden of examination or the amount of studying hours for preparing the exam was reduced, and the class interest and achievement significantly increased compared to other subjects in the same major.
