  • This paper aims to present a new method for obtaining an analytical solution for the Kaniadakis Doppler broadening (KDB) function. Also, in this work, we report the computational efficiencies of this solution compared with the numerical one. The solution of the differential equation achieved in this paper is free of approximations and is, consequently, a more robust methodology for obtaining an analytical representation of ψk. Moreover, the results show an improvement in efficiency using the analytical approximation, indicating that it may be helpful in different applications that require the calculation of the deformed Doppler broadening function.

  • The purpose of this paper is a design and implementation for korean character and pen-gesture recognition system in multimedia terminal, PDA and etc, which demand both a fast process and a high recognition rate. To recognize writing-types which are written by various users, the korean character recognition system uses a database which is based on the characteristic information of korean and the stroke information Which composes a phoneme, etc. In addition. it has a fast speed by the phoneme segmentation which uses the successive process or the backtracking process. The pen-gesture recognition system is performed by a matching process between the classification features extracted from an input pen-gesture and the classification features of 15 pen-gestures types defined in the gesture model. The classification feature is using the insensitive stroke information. i.e., the positional relation between two strokes. the crossing number, the direction transition, the direction vector, the number of direction code. and the distance ratio between starting and ending point in each stroke. In the experiment, we acquired a high recognition rate and a fart speed.

  • Partial enteral nutrition (PEN) supplemented with insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) to neonatal piglets receiving parenteral nutrition increases lactase-phlorizin hydrolase (LPH) activity, but not LPH mRNA. The goal of the current study was to investigate the mechanism by which IGF-I up-regulates LPH activity. We hypothesized that IGF-I regulates LPH synthesis post-transcriptionally. Methods: Newborn piglets (n=15) received 100% parenteral nutrition (TPN), 80% parenteral nutrition + 20% PEN (PEN), or PEN + IGF-I (1.0mg/kg/d). On day 7, two stable isotopes of leucine, [$^2 H_3$]-leucine and [$^{13}C_1$]-L-leucine were intravenously administered to measure mucosal protein and brush LPH (BB LPH) synthesis. Results: Weight gain, nutrient intake and jejunal weight and length were similar among the treatment groups. PEN increased mucosal weight, villus width and cross-sectional area, LPH activity, mRNA expression and the abundance of proLPHh compared to 100% TPN (p<0.05). IGF-I further increased mucosal weight, LPH activity and LPH activity per unit BB LPH ~2-fold over PEN alone (p<0.05), but did not affect LPH mRNA or the abundance of proLPHh or mature LPH. Isotopic enrichment of [$^2 H_3$]-leucine and [$^{13}C_1$]-L-leucine in plasma, mucosal protein and LPH precursors, and the fractional and absolute synthesis rates of mucosal protein and LPH were similar among the treatment groups. Total mucosal protein synthesis was increased 60% (p<0.05) and LPH synthesis tended (p=0.14) to be greater in the IGF-I treated animals compared to the other two groups. Conclusions: The primary mechanism by which IGF-I up-regulates LPH may be post-translational, either via reducing LPH turnover, or by specifically altering LPH activity.

  • Electronic ink is multimedia data that have emerged from the development of pen-based computers such as PDAs whose major input device is a stylus pen. Recently with the development and supply of pen-based mobile computers, the necessity of data processing techniques of electronic ink has increased. Techniques to develop a gesture-allowed text editor in electronic ink domain were studied in this paper. Gesture and electronic ink data are a promising feature of pen-based user interface, but they have not yet been fully exploited. A new gesture recognition algorithm to identify pen gestures and a segmentation method for electronic ink to execute gesture commands were proposed. An electronic ink editor, called GesEdit was developed using proposed algorithms. The gesture recognition algorithm is based on eight features of input strokes. Convex hull and input time have been used to segment electronic ink data into GC(Gesture Components) unit. A variety of experiments by ten people showed that the average recognition rate reached 99.6% for nine gestures.

  • Gametogenesis of the comb pen shell, Atrina pectinata (Linnaeus, 1767) (Bivalvia: Pinnidae) on the southern coast of Ulleungdo Island, Korea was assessed monthly (November 2013 to October 2014) using histology. Gametogenesis commenced in January when the surface water temperature was $12.6^{\circ}C$ and pen shells evidenced an early development phase with small oogonia from January to April, although few females exhibited ripe eggs in their follicular epithelium. In April, the oocyte diameter increased rapidly, and fully mature eggs appeared in May. First spawning males and females were observed in June as the surface water temperature reached $19.3^{\circ}C$ and July ($23.2^{\circ}C$) respectively. The spawning activity continued until the end of September. Histology indicated that the spawning peak of the females in Ulleungdo Island was July to August. During October to January, most of the pen shells were in spent and resting stages. Our data suggested that A. pectinata is a summer spawner, and their annual gametogenesis is closely associated with the seasonal variation in the surface water temperature. The present study is the first provided fundamental information on the life history of A. pectinata in Ulleungdo Island, and this can be put to good use in the management of this pen shell in the study area.

  • Seven toxigenic molds isolated from deteriorated rice in Korea, Aspergillus clavatus, Asp. flavus var. columnaris, Asp. fumigatus, Asp. ochraceus, Penicillium citrinum, Pen. implicatum, and Pen. islandicum, were examined for their sensitivity toward Co-60 gamma rays for survival. Conidia of all tested species showed survival curves of sigmoidal type, from which decimal reduction doses were found to vary in the range of $14{\sim}33$ krad, induction doses, in the range of $12{\sim}56$ krad and inactivation factors at 200 krad, in the range of $4.6{\sim}12.8$, all at a dose rate of 11.56 krad/min. Dose rate effects on the radiosensitivity of Asp. flavus and Pen. islandicum conidia indicated that the higher dose rate (11.56 krad/min) caused decreases in decimal reduction doses as compared with the lower dose rate (2.67 krad/min).

  • 62 specimens of deteriorated rice which were collected all over Korea, were classified according to their color outlooks, and the causitive microorganisms were isolated and identified. The following results were observed; 1. 62 specimens of deteriorated rice were classified according to color outlooks into 7 types; reddish yellow, light reddish yellow, light gray yellow, light reddish yellow, light gray yellow, light red, ligt gray, dark gray and rice weevil type. 2. The isolated microorganisms from 62 specimens of deteriorated rice were 44 species, 5 genera of molds, 1 species of yeast, and 14 species, 4 genera of bacteria. 3. The frequently observed microorganisms which caused the deterioration were Asp. glaucus group, Asp. oryzae, Asp. candidus, and Asp. versicolor. Among bacteria, Bacillus was dominant. 4. The relationship between color outlook types and the deterioration causing microrrganisms was not definite, but Pen. islandicum from reddish yellow, Asp. candidus and Asp. clavatus from light reddish yellow, Asp. glaucus group, Asp. candidus, Asp. versicolor and Asp. fumigatus from light red, Asp. oryzae from light gray yellow, and Asp. glaucus group and Pencillium species from light gray and dark gray were chiefly isolated. 5. As mycotoxin producing fungi, Asp. fumigatus, Pen. citrinum, Pen. islandicum, Asp. flavus, and Asp. ochraceus were detected, but their growth frequencies were not very high to be problems except Pen, islandicum which infected an imported rice sample heavily.

  • Objective: To compare the effectiveness and convenience of a pen device for the self-administration of follitropin ${\beta}$ with a conventional syringe delivering follitropin ${\beta}$ solution in patients undergoing IVF-ET. Methods: GnRH agonist long protocol was used for controlled ovarian stimulation (COS) in all subjects. A total of 100 patients were randomized into the pen device group or the conventional syringe group on the first day of COS. Local tolerance reactions were assessed within 5 minutes, at 1 hour and at 3 hours after each injection. On the day of hCG injection, patients were asked to rate their overall pain and convenience experienced with self-injection on a visual anlaogue scale (VAS). Results: There were no differences in patients' characteristics between the two groups. The duration of COS was significantly shorter in the pen device group than in the conventional syringe group. Patients included in the pen device group needed a significantly smaller amount of follitropin ${\beta}$. However, no differences between the two groups were found in IVF results and pregnancy outcome. The incidence of local pain within 5 minutes, at 1 hour and at 3 hours after the injection was significantly lower in the pen device group. VAS scores indicated that injections using the pen device were significantly less painful and more convenient. Conclusion: The pen device for self-administration of follitropin ${\beta}$ is less painful, safer and more convenient for the patients, and can be more effective because of the shorter duration and smaller dose of follitropin ${\beta}$ when compared with the conventional syringe.
