In content-based image retrieval (CBIR), most conventional approaches assume a linear relationship between different features and require users themselves to assign the appropriate weights to each feature. However, the linear relationship assumed between the features is too restricted to accurately represent high-level concepts and the intricacies of human perception. In this paper, a neural network-based image retrieval (NNIR) model is proposed. It has been developed based on a human-computer interaction approach to CBIR using a radial basis function network (RBFN). By using the RBFN, this approach determines the nonlinear relationship between features and it allows the user to select an initial query image and search incrementally the target images via relevance feedback so that more accurate similarity comparison between images can be supported. The experiment was performed to calculate the level of recall and precision based on a database that contains 1,015 images and consists of 145 classes. The experimental results showed that the recall and level of the proposed approach were 93.45% and 80.61% respectively, which is superior than precision the existing approaches such as the linearly combining approach, the rank-based method, and the backpropagation algorithm-based method.

In this study, we introduced the technique of matching classical music using deep learning to design soundscape that can help the viewer appreciate painting and proposed an evaluation index to evaluate how well matching painting and music. The evaluation index was conducted with suitability evaluation through the Likeard 5-point scale and evaluation in a multimodal aspect. The suitability evaluation score of the 13 test participants for the deep learning based best match between painting and music was 3.74/5.0 and band the average cosine similarity of the multimodal evaluation of 13 participants was 0.79. We expect multimodal evaluation to be an evaluation index that can measure a new user experience. In addition, this study aims to improve the experience of multisensory artworks by proposing the interaction between visual and auditory. The proposed matching of painting and music method can be used in multisensory artwork exhibition and furthermore it will increase the accessibility of visually impaired people to appreciate artworks.

The Malassezia fungi are responsible for various human skin disorders including dandruff and seborrheic dermatitis. Of the Malassezia fungi, Malassezia globosa (M. globosa) is one of the most common in human scalp. The completed genome sequence of M. globosa contains four putative cytochrome P450 genes. To determine the roles of Malassezia P450 enzymes in the biosynthesis of ergosterol, we isolated MGL3996 gene from M. globosa chromosomal DNA by PCR. The MGL3996 gene encodes an enzyme of 616 amino acids, which shows strong similarity with known CYP52s of other species. MGL3996 gene was cloned and expressed in Pichia pastoris (P. pastoris) heterologous yeast expression system. Using the yeast microsomes expressing MGL3996 protein, a typical P450 CO-difference spectrum was shown with absorption maximum at 448 nm. SDS-PAGE analysis revealed a protein band of apparent molecular weight 69 kDa and Western blot with anti-histidine tag antibody showed that MGL3996 was successfully expressed in P. pastoris. Cloning and expression of a new P450 gene is an important step to study the P450 monooxygenase system of M. globosa and to understand the role of P450 enzymes in pathophysiology of dandruff.

The present study was conducted to determine the full rpoB and eight house-keeping gene sequences of 78 and 35, respectively, avian pathogenic E. coli (APEC) strains. Phylogenetic comparison with 66 E. coli and Shigella strains from GenBank and EMBL was also conducted. Based on the full rpoB sequence, 50 different rpoB sequence types (RSTs) were identified. RST 1 was assigned to a major RST that included 34.7% (50/144) of the analyzed strains. RST 2 to RST 50 were then assigned to other strains with higher nucleotide sequence similarity to RST 1 in order. RST 1, 11, and 23 were mixed with APEC along with human commensal and pathogenic strains while RST 2, 6, 9, 13-15, 22, 24, 25, 33, 34, 36, and 41 were unique to APEC strains. Only five APEC strains grouped into RST 32 and 47, which contained human pathogenic E. coli (HPEC). Thus, most of the APEC strains had genetic backgrounds different from HPEC strains. However, the minor APEC strains similar to HPEC should be considered potential zoonotic risks. The resolution power of multi-locus sequence typing (MLST) was better than RST testing. Nevertheless, phylogenetic analysis of rpoB was simpler and more economic than MLST.

Ti-6Al-4V alloy have been used for dental implant because of its excellent biocompatibility, corrosion resistance, and mechanical properties. However, the integration of such implant in bone was not in good condition to achieve improved osseointergraiton. For solving this problem, calcium phosphate (CaP) has been applied as coating materials on Ti alloy implants for hard tissue applications because its chemical similarity to the inorganic component of human bone, capability of conducting bone formation and strong affinity to the surrounding bone tissue. Various metallic elements are known to play an important role in the bone formation and also affect bone mineral characteristics. Especially, Zn is essential for the growth of the human and Zn coating has a major impact on the improvement of corrosion resistance. Plasma electrolytic oxidation (PEO) is a promising technology to produce porous and firmly adherent inorganic Zn containing TiO2(Zn-TiO2)coatings on Ti surface, and the a mount of Zn introduced in to the coatings can be optimized by altering the electrolyte composition. In this study, effect of Zn content on the corrosion behavior of Ti-6Al-4V alloy after plasma electrolytic oxidation were studied by SEM, EDS, XRD, AC impedance, and potentiodynamic polarization test. The potentiodynamic polarization and AC impedance tests for corrosion behaviors were carried out in 0.9% NaCl solution at similar body temperature using a potentiostat with a scan rate of 1.67 mV/s and potential range from -1500 mV to +2000 mV. Also, AC impedance was performed at frequencies ranging from 10 MHz to 100 kHz for corrosion resistance.

This study aims to propose the methods for urban flood risk maps which are useful in strengthening urban planning toward disaster prevention by climate change. Selecting the Gwangju city, Gyeonggi-do as study area, it analyzes urban flood at a RCP 8.5 scenario, and develops gridded information regarding risk components such as hazard, exposure, and vulnerability. It turns out that flooding would occur at a bend interval of the Mokhyun stream and also at the joint of the Gyungan and the Mokhyun streams, showing the similarity with the inundation trace map. In particular, the Songjeong dong is analyzed to be seriously exposed and to be highly vulnerable to flood inundation. With all results together, this study concludes that the proposed methods could be used as a basis for strengthening urban planning toward flood disaster prevention system.

Recently there has arisen concern in both the database community and the graphics society about data retrieval from large motion databases because the high dimensionality of motion data implies high costs. In this circumstance, finding an effective distance measure and an efficient query processing method for such data is a challenging problem. This paper presents an elaborate motion query processing system, SMoFinder (Similar Motion Finder), which incorporates a novel kinematic distance measure and an efficient indexing strategy via adaptive frame segmentation. To this end, we regard human motions as multi-linkage kinematics and propose the weighted Minkowski distance metric. For efficient indexing, we devise a new adaptive segmentation method that chooses representative frames among similar frames and stores chosen frames instead of all frames. For efficient search, we propose a new search method that processes k-nearest neighbors queries over only representative frames. Our experimental results show that the size of motion databases is reduced greatly (${\times}1/25$) but the search capability of SMoFinder is equal to or superior to that of other systems.
