A new motion compensated frame Interpolation (MCI) algorithm by block based motion estimation (BME) is proposed. The block for the BME is composed of a large overlapped block for practical object motion estimation (ME) and a small block (which has a coinciding center with the ME-block) for the more precise motion compensated image description. Pixels in the block for the ME are sub-sampled to reduce computational complexity. The proposed method is executed with the various ME-blocks which have different size and sub-sampling ratio, and compared to the conventional method.

Video FRUC (Frame Rate Up Conversion) is one of the main issues that have arisen in recent years with the explosive growth of video sources and display formats in consumer electronics. Most advanced FRUC algorithms adopt an efficient motion interpolation technique to determine the motion vector field of interpolated frames. But, in some application areas such as post processing in receiver side, it is necessary to evaluate how well the MCI (Motion Compensated Interpolation) frame was reconstructed. In order to achieve this aim, first, this paper introduces some cost functions to estimate the reliability of a block in the MCI frame. Then, by using these functions, this paper proposes two distortion estimation models for evaluating how much noise was produced in the MCI frame. Through computer simulations, it is shown that the proposed estimation methods perform effectively in estimating the noises of the MCI frame.

DVC (Distributed Video Coding) and FRUC (Frame Rate Up Conversion) techniques need to have an efficient motion compensated frame interpolation algorithms. Conventional works of these applications have mainly focused on the performance improvement of overall system. But, in some applications, it is necessary to evaluate how well the MCI (Motion Compensated Interpolation) frame matches the original frame. For this aim, this paper deals with the modeling methods for evaluating the block-based matching cost. First, several matching criteria, which have already been dealt with the motion compensated frame interpolation, are introduced and then combined to make estimate models for the size of MSE (Mean Square Error) noise of the MCI frame to original one. Through computer simulations, it is shown that the block-based matching criteria are evaluated and the proposed model can be effectively used for estimating the MSE noise.

We propose a new frame rate up-conversion algorithm for high quality video. In the proposed scheme bidirectional motion estimation (ME) is performed to construct the motion vector. (MV) field for the frame to be interpolated. Unlike conventional motion-compensated interpolation (MCI) algorithms, the proposed technique does not produce any overlapped pixel and hole region in the interpolated frame, and thus can utilize the overlapped block motion compensation technique to reduce the blocking artifacts. The proposed algoritm is very simple to implement on consumer products when compared to conventional MCI methods. Computer simulation shows a high visual performance of the proposed frame rate up-conversion algorithm.

Video FRUC (Frame Rate Up Conversion) has been a technique of great interest due to its diversified applications in consumer electronics. Most advanced FRUC algorithms adopt a motion interpolation technique to determine the motion vector field of interpolated frames. But, in some applications, it is necessary to evaluate how well the MCI (Motion Compensated Interpolation) frame is reconstructed. For this aim, this paper proposes a distortion estimation for motion compensated interpolation frame using frame-adaptive distortion estimation. The proposed method is applied for the symmetric motion estimation and compensated scheme and then analyzed by three different approaches, that is, forward estimation, backward estimation and adaptive bi-directional estimation schemes. Through computer simulations, it is shown that the proposed bi-directional estimation method outperforms others and can be effectively applied for FRUC.

Motion compensated interpolation (MCI) techniques are used for increasing the frame rate and generating the side information in the distributed video coding (DVC) system. In this paper, an efficient MCI technique using the image resizing in the DCT or LiftLT domain is proposed, and the performance of the MCI technique using various sub-pixel generation techniques is analyzed. Extensive computer simulations show that the proposed method produces the superior results compared to the conventional methods.

We purified polyphenols from persimmon leaf and tested their biological activity. The 60% acetone extract was lyophilized and applied to test enzyme inhibition of glucosyltransferase and tyrosinase. GTase was 82.4% inhibited at $1.8{\times}10^{-1}$ mg/ml and tyrosinase 21.7% inhibited at 0.8 mg/ml. The acetone extract was fractionated into F-1, 2, 3, 4, 5 by Sephadex Q-50 gel filtration and the fraction-1 and 2 showed higher enzyme inhibition activity than the other fractions. To the Proteinase K treatment and autoclaving of the two fractions had no effect on the enzyme activity, but these results suggested that active fraction was not protein but phenol ring completed compounds. By Sephadex LH-20, MCI-gel and Bondapak $C_{18}$ column chromatographies, compouds 1, 2, 3 and 4 from F-1 fraction, compounds 5 and 6 from F-2 fraction and compounds 7 , 8 from F-3 fraction were purified and re-crystallized. The purified compounds was assumed to be condensed tannins of frame flavan-3-ol frame on the basis of color reagent reaction and to be a mixture of monomer, dimer and trimer according to TLC analysis.

A 11.5-kb DNA fragment containing an endo-inulinase gene was cloned from Xanthomonas oryzae #5. It contained a single open reading frame of 3,999bp, encoding a polypeptide composed of signal peptide of 32 amino acids and mature protein of 1,301 amino acids. From the comparison of amino acids sequences with fructan hydrolases, inulinase, levanase and CFTase, the sequence of the endo-inulinase had highly homology of 72% with CFTase of B. circulans, and six highly conserved regions including the ${\beta}-fructosidase$ motif were found.
