The augmented reality is a technology which expresses the information hardly obtained in the real world by synthesizing virtual objects in the real world. This study uses IR LED marker to obtain the coordination of real world for registration of virtual objects. Since the IR LED marker is inserted in target object thus it has properties of invisible markers. To realize the augmented reality, the existence of marker can be observed in camera input image. Therefore, this paper provides a method to give the properties of perfect invisible marker by using inpainting technology when realizing IR LED marker.

With technologies available now, there are only a few virtual objects that augmented reality content can create. So, wider application of it is limited. If people want to realize any augmented reality content, out of a vast amount of materials available as well as virtual objects, the number of virtual objects that markers can render should be made to go up along with the content. In a precedent study, IR LEDs markers render marker information following On-Off signals. The number of LEDs should be raised to render as much information as possible, subsequently leading to the problem of oversized markers. This problem can be solved by generating data signals through the blinking of LEDs. This research puts forward OOK Code algorithm that represents the mode of data transmission using the light of LEDs. The amount of information that can be rendered by a marker increases and the size of the marker gets smaller, which is a merit, when it receives data signals from light.

In this paper we propose an efficient marker tracking system that exploits IR and web cameras. The proposed method solves the marker swap problem and allows for fast and responsive marker tracking. We use color information gathered from the IR reflector to assign a unique identification to each marker. We can locate each marker withthe IR camera and also identify the marker uniquely by using color information provided by the web camera. The experiment results show that marker swapping can be eliminated effectively. Furthermore, our approach allows for faster and more responsive marker tracking.

The purpose of this study was to improve the culturability of 'IR 36', a indica type rice cultivar using DNA marker associated with the ability of plant regeneration in anther and seed culture. The culturability of 6 rice cultivars and 2 indica/japonica lines ('MGRI 036', 'MGRI 079') were investigated in anther and seed culture. The culturability of 3 japonica rice cultivars were much higher than tongil and indica rice cultivars, and 'MGRI 036' and 'MGRI 079' has high culturability with 20% regenerability, also. 34 $BC_2F_4$ 4 lines were selected by marker screening using RZ400 among 90 $BC_2F_4$ lines derived from a cross between 'MGRI 079' and 'IR 36'. The frequency of callus formation of 10 $BC_2F_4$ lines were higher than 'IR 36' in anther culture among selected 34 $BC_2F_4$ lines. The ability of plant regeneration of 10 lines were higher than 'IR 36' in the seed culture among selected 34 $BC_2F_4$ lines. A promising line, $BC_2F_4$-28, was selected to have better culturability in the anther and seed culture among selected 34 $BC_2F_4$ lines. The heading date and grain shape of the $BC_2F_4$-28 was similar to 'IR 36'. Using the RZ400 DNA marker associated with the culturability will be useful method for improving of indica rice culticvar's culturability in rice breeding program.

The biggest advantage of AR is that it allows unique experience in the real world through a virtual object. However, there is a limit in the marker techniques to do registration for the virtual object. Therefore, it is possible for a complication that only allows restrictive interaction to come up. This paper provides marker technique of the next generation which can supplement limitations of existing marker technique. Such marker is a combination of IR LED's, and is a convergence of LED VCL concepts of M2M. Environment where the user belongs to and their unique choice will be expressed into one context. Also, the context will be delivered to the system through OOK IR LED marker algorithm. Marker can be operated on the spot to change virtual objects according to the user's taste, registration can be done at the same time for several virtual objects, and control become possible.

As computer related technologies are developed, interests in augmented reality technologies are greatly increasing. Augmented reality is a technology that composes digital contents from the real input images through camera and it enables interaction with users. This study designed a directional marker using LED light that emits infrared ray, then, provided a detection algorithm and a marker information extraction method that can realize various virtual objects as augmented reality from one marker. The newly designed method provides a solution to settle the problems in existing marker technologies such as decrease of immersiveness and read rate and single information expression, and at the same time it can minimize the cost or time consumption in marker information storage.

The purpose of this study is to improve the culturability of a indica type rice cultivar, IR 36, using DNA marker associated with the ability of plant regeneration in anther and seed culture. The varietal difference of ability of callus formation and plant regeneration was investigated in anther and seed culture of 8 rice cultivars. Three japonica rice cultivars showed to have better culturability than those of tongil and indica type genotypes. But two indica/japonica lines, 'MGRI 079' and 'MGRI 036', which were selected to have good culturability in previous study showed the highest regenerability (20%) in anther culture of 8 rice cultivars. Thirty four $BC_2F_4$ lines were selected by marker screening using RZ400 for 100 $BC_2F_4$ lines derived from a cross $'MGRI\;079/IR\;36^{^*3}'$. The frequency of callus formation of 30 $BC_2F_4$ lines was higher than those of 'IR 36' in anther culture of the selected $BC_2F_4$ lines. The ability of plant regeneration of 15 lines was higher than that of 'IR 36' in the seed culture of 34 $BC_2F_4$ lines. A promising line, $BC_2F_4-28$, was selected to have better culturability in the anther and seed culture of the $BC_2F_4$ lines. The heading date and grain shape of the $BC_2F_4-28$ was similar to 'IR 36'. In seed culture of 50 $BC_4F_3$ lines derived from a rice cross $'MGRI\;079/IR\;36^{^*5}'$, 11 lines including $BC_4F_3-3$ showed to have higher regenerability compared with 'IR 36'. The highest frequency of plant regeneration (11%) was obtained from $BC_4F_3-46$ in seed culture of the $BC_4F_3$ lines.

The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the expression of cardiac marker protein in rabbit cardiac tissue that was exposed to ischemic preconditioning (IPC), or ischemiareperfusion injury (IR) using two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2DE) and matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization mass spectrometry (MALDI-MS). We compared 2DE gels of control (uninjured) cardiac tissue with those of IPC and IR cardiac tissue. Expression of one protein was detected in IR heart tissue, however the protein was not detected in the samples of control and IPC tissue. To further characterize the detected protein molecule, the protein in the 2D gel was isolated and subjected to trypsin digestion, followed by MALDI-MS. The protein was identified as myoglobin, which was confirmed also by Western blot analysis. These results are consistent with previous studies of cardiac markers in ischemic hearts, indicating myoglobin as a suitable marker of myocardial injury. In addition, the present use of multiple techniques indicates that proteomic analysis is an appropriate means to identify cardiac markers in studies of IPC and IR.

TyG (triglyceride and glucose) index using triglyceride and fasting blood glucose is recommended as a useful marker for insulin resistance. The present study evaluated the usefulness of TyG index in diagnosing metabolic syndrome and suggested an optimal cut-off value. The subjects of this study were adult 4,415 adults aged 20 to 80 years who underwent health screening at J General Hospital from January 2016 to January 2017. Metabolic syndrome was based on AHA/NHLBI (American Heart Association/National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute) criteria. TyG index correlated with metabolic syndrome risk factors including HOMA-IR. Compared with the participants in the lowest quartile of TyG index, odds ratios and 95% confidence intervals for metabolic syndrome were 8.5 (3.005~23.903), 20.0 (17.190~23.407) for those in the third, and the fourth quartile of TyG index. The optimal cut-off value of the metabolic syndrome was 8.81 for TyG index (sensitivity 86.7%, specificity 80.1%) and area under the ROC curve (AUC) was 0.894. In conclusion, TyG index is effective to identify individuals at risk for metabolic syndrome.

Development of disease resistant plant is one of the important objectives in rice breeding programs because biotic stresses can adversely affect rice growth and yield losses. This study was conducted to identify lines with multiple-resistance genes to biotic stress among 173 hybrid rice breeding lines and germplasms using DNA-based markers. Our results showed that one hybrid rice line [IR98161-2-1-1-k1-3 (IR86409-3-1-1-1-1-1/IRBB66)] possessed 5 bacterial blight resistance genes (Xa4, xa5, Xa7, Xa13 and Xa21) while two hybrid rice lines [IR98161-2-1-1-k1-2 (IR86409-3-1-1-1-1-1/IRBB66) and 7292s (IR75589-31-27-8-33S(S1)/IR102758B)] possessed 3 bacterial blight resistance genes (Xa4, Xa7 and Xa21, and Xa3, Xa4 and xa5). Molecular survey on rice blast disease revealed that most of these lines had two different resistant genes. Only 11 lines possessed Pib, Pi-5, and Pi-ta. In addition, we further surveyed the distribution of insect resistant genes, such as Bph1, Bph18(t), and Wbph. Three hybrid breeding lines [IR98161-2-1-1-k1-3 (IR86409-3-1-1-1-1-1/IRBB66), IR98161-2-1-1-k1-2 (IR86409-3-1-1-1-1-1/IRBB66), and 7292s (IR75589-31-27-8-33S(S1) /IR102758B)] contained all three resistance genes. Finally, we obtained four hybrid rice breeding lines and germplasms [IR98161-2-1-1-k1-2 (IR86409-3-1-1-1-1-1/IRBB66), Damm-Noeub Khmau, 7290s, and 7292s (IR75589-31-27-8-33S(S1)/IR102758B)] possessing six-gene combination. They are expected to provide higher level of multiple resistance to biotic stress. This study is important for genotyping hybrid rice with resistance to diverse diseases and pests. Results obtained in this study suggest that identification of pyramided resistance genes is very important for screening hybrid rice breeding lines and germplasms accurately for disease and pest resistance. We will expand their cultivation safely through bioassays against diseases, pests, and disaster in its main export countries.
