This paper presents a novel signal tracking algorithm for GNSS receivers using a MLE technique. In order to perform a robust signal tracking in severe signal environments, e.g., high dynamics for navigation vehicles or weak signals for indoor positioning, the MLE based signal tracking approach is adopted in the paper. With assuming white Gaussian additive noise, the cost function of MLE is expanded to the cost function of NLSE. Efficient and practical approach for Doppler frequency tracking by the MLE is derived based on the assumption of code-free signals, i.e., the cost function of the MLE for carrier Doppler tracking is used to derive a discriminator function to create error signals from incoming and reference signals. The use of the MLE method for carrier tracking makes it possible to generalize the MLE equation for arbitrary codes and modulation schemes. This is ideally suited for various GNSS signals with same structure of tracking module. This paper proposes two different types of MLE based tracking method, i.e., an iterative batch processing method and a non-iterative feed-forward processing method. The first method is derived without any limitation on time consumption, while the second method is proposed for a time limited case by using a 1st derivative of cost function, which is proportional to error signal from discriminators of conventional tracking methods. The second method can be implemented by a block diagram approach for tracking carrier phase, Doppler frequency and code phase with assuming no correlation of signal parameters. Finally, a state space form of FLL/PLL/DLL is adopted to the designed MLE based tracking algorithm for reducing noise on the estimated signal parameters.

It is well known that the maximum likelihood estimator(MLE) in normal mixture models with unequal variances does not fall in the interior of the parameter space. Recently, a doubly smoothed maximum likelihood estimator(DS-MLE) (Seo and Lindsay, 2010) was proposed as a general alternative to the ordinary maximum likelihood estimator. Although this method gives a natural modification to the ordinary MLE, its computation is cumbersome due to intractable integrations. In this paper, we derive an EM algorithm for the DS-MLE under normal mixture models and propose a fast computational tool using a local quadratic approximation. The accuracy and speed of the proposed method is then presented via some numerical studies.

본 연구는 누에(Bombyx mori)에서 cloning한 BomMAR의 염기서열을 기초로 하여 곤충 MLE(mariner-like ele-ment)의 계통분석을 통한 누에의 분자적 계통 관계를 이해하고자 수행하였다. 전체 10 종의 MLE중에서 15%의 낮은 상동성을 보이는 인간 MLE(Hsmarl)을 제외한 9종의 MLE의 DNA 염기서열을 이용한 UPGMA 분석 결과, BmoMAR을 포함한 10종의 MLE가 세 가지의 subfamily 로 grouping되는 것을 알 수 있었으며, 누에는 genetic distance 0.4332에서 같은 lepidoptera(나비목) 의 H. cecropia, almond moth, webworm 및 microcaddisfly와 함께 grouping 되었다. 따라서 이와 같은 결과는 MLE가 곤충의 계통분석에 유용한 molecular tool이 될 수 있음을 보여준다.

Objectives : The Skin is composed of multiple layers, including the epidermis, dermis, and hypodermis. It provides a vital barrier structure that protects vertebrates from external environmental antigens, solvents, ultraviolet light, microorganisms, toxins, and weather conditions. Although several biological effects of Mori Follium have been reported, beneficial effects of Mori Follium in skin health remain unclear. In this study, we prepared water extract of Mori Follium (MLE) and evaluated the effects on melanin accumulation and expression levels of skin fibril-related proteins.Methods : The cytotoxicities of MLE in B16F10 melanoma and human skin fibroblasts (HSF) were examined by MTT assay. Inhibitory effect of MLE on the α-MSH- and IBMX-induced melanosis in B16F10 melanoma was examined. The expression levels of fibronectin, collagen 1α2, and CCN2 in MLE-treated HSF were analyzed by reverse transcription-polymer chain reaction (RT-PCR) and western blotting.Results : The MLE treatment for 24 h did not affect to the B16F10 and HSF at concentrations of 1, 10, 50, 100, 200, 400 and 800 ㎍/ml. The MLE treatment for 72 h significantly and dose dependently suppressed melanin accumulation in B16F10 melanoma. In addition, the MLE treatment up-regulated expression levels of skin fibril-related genes such as fibronectin, collagen 1α2, and CCN2 in HSF. Our western blot analysis revealed MLE-induced up-regulation of skin fibril-related genes required the activation of CCN2 protein.Conclusions : In conclusion, these findings suggest that the MLE could be used in development of cosmetic natural material of maintaining healthy skin.

Objectives : Mori Follium (Morus alba L. leaf) has been cultivated in many Asian countries. Especially, mulberry leaf has been used as an anti-diabetic remedy in oriental medicine. However, anti-obesity effect of mulberry has not been unknown. In this study, our objectives of study is to investigate the anti-adipogenic effect of mulberry water extract (MLE) and to reveal potential molecular anti-obesity mechanism in 3T3-L1 adipocytes differentiation model.Methods : The cytotoxicity of MLE in 3T3-L1 was examined by MTT assay. Anti-adipogenic effect of MLE was evaluated by Oil Red O (ORO) staining. To elucidate the molecular mechanism, inhibitor assay was employed. The mRNA expression levels of adipogenic transcriptional factors such as PPARγ and fatty acid synthase (FAS) were analyzed by reverse transcription-polymer chain reaction (RT-PCR) analysis.Results : The MLE treatment for 24 h did not affect to the 3T3-L1 cells at concentrations of 1, 10, 100, 200, 400, 800 and 1,000 ㎍/㎖. Thus, non-toxic concentration rages of MLE were used during adipogenesis period (day -2 to 7). Intracellular lipid accumulation in MLE-treated 3T3-L1 adipocytes (day 6) were quantitatively evaluated by ORO staining. The MLE treatment significantly and dose-dependently suppressed 3T3-L1 adipogenesis by 60.42%, 38.24%, and 5.97% at 10, 100, and 200 ㎍/㎖, respectively. In addition, our inhibitor assay and RT-PCR analysis revealed that the MLE-inhibited 3T3-L1 adipogenesis through inhibition of PPARγ mediated by Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway.Conclusions : In conclusion, these findings indicate that the MLE could be used in prevent and/or treatment of obesity-related diseases.

본 논문은 최대우도추정(Maximum Likelihood Estimation, MLE)을 적용한 선택적 합성법(Selective Combining, SC)의 수중 주파수 다이버시티 통신성능을 평가하였다. 수중 다중경로 주파수 선택적 채널에서 수신 신호의 지연확산에 따른 상쇄 간섭 페이딩(destructive interference fading)은 수중 음향 통신 시스템의 오류 증가와 신호대잡음비(Signal to Noise Ratio, SNR)변동성에 영향을 준다. SC의 결정 값 추출을 위한 MLE 적용 해상실험에서 SC 주파수 다이버시티와 MLE-SC 주파수 다이버시티 성능을 평가하였다. SC보다 MLE-SC를 통해 추출한 결정 값을 적용한 경우 상대적으로 낮은 BER(Bit Error Rate) 특성을 확인하였다.

The present study evaluated effect of temperature on removals of organic matter (C), nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) in Modified-Dephanox (M-Dephanox) process, which is hybrid system, comparing with those of Modified-Ludzack Ettinger (MLE) under the suspended-growth bacteria, as control. M-Dephanox process was more stable than MLE process in the removal of C, N, P, especially in nitrification, as the temperature was decreased from $25^{\circ}C$ to $16^{\circ}C$. As the temperature was decreased from $25^{\circ}C$ to $16^{\circ}C$, the removal efficiency of $NH_4{^+}-N$ of M-Dephanox process was decreased by 3.8%, but that of MLE process decreased by 25.7%. T-N removal efficiency of M-Dephanox was higher than MLE process by 27.1% and 26.9% at $25^{\circ}C$ and $16^{\circ}C$ of temperature, respectively.

누에, 멧누에, 천잠 및 작잠에서의 형질전환용 vector 개발을 위한 첫단계로 이미 인간을 포함한 여러 곤충에서 그 존재가 확인된 mariner transposable element가 이들 견사 곤충에 존재하는지의 여부를 탐색하기 위해서 이미 보고된Drosophila mauritiana와 Hyalophora ceropia의 mariner transposase 유전자의 고도로 보존성이 높은 부위에 대한 degenerctive primer pair를 제작하여 이들의 존재 여부를 탐색하였다. 결과적으로 예상되는 약 500bp의 PCR product가 관찰됨에 따라서 모든 견사곤충의 genome에는 maminer-like element(MLE)가 존재한다는 것을 간접적으로 확인할 수 있었다. 이미 cloning된 pBmoMAR를 probe DNA로하여 southern hybridization을 수행한 결과에서도 확인 할 수 있었으며, 각 견사층의 genome내에 high copy로 존재한다는 것을 추정할 수 있었다. 따라서 이와 같은 결과는 견사곤충에서 MLE가 vector system으로써 개발될 수 있는 기초자료로 제공될 수 있을 것이다.
