The last enzyme of the sesquiterpen phytoalexin capsidiol synthesis in tobacco cell, 5-epi-aristolochene hydro-xylase which convert 5-epi-aristolochene (EAS) to capsidiol, was cloned by a reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction strategy and cDNA library screening. Cloned CYP-B3 contained high probability amino acid matches to known plant cytochrome P450 sequences and open reading frame with the conserved FxxGxRxCxG heme-binding region. Transcripts of CYP-B3 were not detected in control cells, but induced in elicitor-treated cells. Furthermore, CYP-B3 transcripts were induced by fungal extracts and cellulase but not by other stimuli(chilling, heat shock and 2,4-D). Induction of CYP-B3 transcripts by elicitor treatment was not affected by ancymidol and ketoconazole treat-ments suggesting that an inhibition of hydroxylase activity by Cyt P450 inhibitors resulting from post translational processing event.

This paper proposes a precise drone-positioning technique using a differential global positioning system (DGPS). The proposed system consists of a reference station for error correction data production, and a mobile station (a drone), which is the target for real-time positioning. The precise coordinates of the reference station were acquired by post-processing of received satellite data together with the reference station location data provided by government infrastructure. For the system's implementation, low-cost commercial GPS receivers were used. Furthermore, a Zigbee transmitter/receiver pair was used to wirelessly send control signals and error correction data, making the whole system affordable for personal use. To validate the system, a drone-tracking experiment was conducted. The results show that the average real-time position error is less than 0.8 m.

Traditional rendering of cartoon character cannot revive the feeling of concept drawings properly. In this paper, we propose capture technology to get toon shading model from the concept drawings and with this technique, we provide a new novel system to render 3D cartoon character. Benefits of this system is to cartoonize the 3D character according to saliency to emphasize the form of 3D character and further support the sketch-based user interface for artists to edit shading by post-production. For this, we generate texture automatically by RGB color sorting algorithm to analyze color distribution and rates of selected region. In the cartoon rendering process, we use saliency as a measure to determine visual importance of each area of 3d mesh and we provide a novel cartoon rendering algorithm based on the saliency of 3D mesh. For the fine adjustments of shading style, we propose a user interface that allow the artists to freely add and delete shading to a 3D model. Finally, this paper shows the usefulness of the proposed system through user evaluation.

의사결정 시스템은 전사적인 의사결정과 전략적 정보수집을 위해 거대한 량의 정보를 빠른 시간내에 제공할 것을 요구한다. 데이타 웨어하우스는 이러한 정보를 신속히 제공하기 위해 여러 지역 데이타베이스로부터 필요한 정보를 사전에 추출하고 가공 및 통합하여 별도의 저장공간에 저장한다. 일반적으로, 웨어하우스 내의 정보는 지역 데이타베이스에 저장된 정보에 대한 실체화된 뷰로서 간주하며 지역 데이타의 변경에 따라 일관성을 유지하도록 반영해야 한다. 본 논문에서는 일관성을 유지하기 위해 정보 공유가 가능한 데이타 웨어하우스 시스템의 구조와 비-보상 실체 뷰 관리 기법을 제안한다. 본 논문에서 제안한 데이타 웨어하우스 시스템의 구조는 지역 데이타베이스에서 추출된 정보를 관리하는 별도의 지역 정보 관리자를 두어 뷰 관리자들 간의 정보 공유가 가능하게 한다. 비-보상 실체 뷰 관리 기법은 지역 데이타 변경 사건에 따른 뷰 관리 시 다른 사건에 의해 영향을 받지 않도록 하기 때문에 기본의 사전 보상이나 나중 보상 기법과는 달리 추가적인 질의 처리를 요구하지 않는 기법이다.Abstract A decision support system(DSS) commonly requires fast access to tremendous volume of information. A data warehouse is a database storing the information that is extracted, filtered and integrated from several relevant local databases to reply upon aggregated queries. The information stored in the data warehouse can be regarded as materialized views. The materialized view has to be modified according to the change of the corresponding local databases to preserve the data consistency. In this paper, we propose a data warehousing system architecture allowing information sharing (DAWINS), and a non-compensating materialized view maintenance algorithm(NCA). DAWINS architecture allows relevant information to be shared by individual view managers with local data manager for each local database. Unlikely to the pre- or post-compensating algorithms, which are required to remove the effects of some events to other view in the process of view maintenance, NCA does not require any additional query processing, since a local data manager in DAWINS already maintains the effects of update events occurring in local systems.

This is to study the accuracy of the actual size according to the TOD(table object distance; TOD) change when measuring blood vessels using angiography equipment, and to help the optimal selection of the device used accordingly. Balls similar to the size of common vessels were calibrated with TOD using 30 mm, 20 mm, 10 mm, 5 mm and acrylic phantoms, catheter calibration from 0 cm to 10 cm, 20 cm and 30 cm, respectively. It was measured whether there was a change in the measured value according to the change. The equipment used was GE Innova 3131 IQ equipment, and the image reconstruction method was GE AW4.7 post processing program. Two radiotechnologists were scanned three times by catheter calibration method and 3DRA(3dimension rotational angiography; 3DRA) volume rendering method. The independent sample T-test showed 0.981 (p> 0.05) to verify the significance between the two observers. As a result, in case of catheter calibration, the error rate at TOD 0 mm and 10 mm is within ± 10%, but when the TOD is changed to 20 mm and 50 mm respectively, the tolerance is ± 10% except for 30 mm ball exceeded. On the other hand, 3DRA was included within the tolerance range of ± 10% overall even when the TOD was changed from 0 mm to 50 mm. In the catheter calibration method, the larger the TOD, the larger the error range, and the 3DRA method was able to measure vascular vessels accurately close to the actual measurement without any consideration of the TOD.

Electromyogram (EMG) is the bioelectric signal induced by motor nerves. Analyzing EMG with the movement produced by muscle contraction, we can provide input commands to a computer as a man-machine interface as well as can evaluate the patient's motional abnormality. In this paper, we developed an integrated miniaturized device which acquires and transmits the surface EMG of an interested muscle. Developed system measures $60{\times}40{\times}25mm$, weighs 100g. Using an amplifier circuitry on the electrodes and the radio frequency transmission, the developed system dispenses with the use of cables among the electrodes, amplifier, and the post processing system (personal computer). The wiring used in conventional systems can be obstacle for natural motion and source of motion artifacts. In results, the developed system improves not only the signal-to-noise ration in dynamic EMG measurement, but also the user convenience. We propose a new human-computer interface as well as a dynamic EMG measurement system as a possible application of the developed system.

It is a challenge for the current security industry to respond to a large number of malicious codes distributed indiscriminately as well as intelligent APT attacks. As a result, studies using machine learning algorithms are being conducted as proactive prevention rather than post processing. The k-NN algorithm is widely used because it is intuitive and suitable for handling malicious code as unstructured data. In addition, in the malicious code analysis domain, the k-NN algorithm is easy to classify malicious codes based on previously analyzed malicious codes. For example, it is possible to classify malicious code families or analyze malicious code variants through similarity analysis with existing malicious codes. However, the main disadvantage of the k-NN algorithm is that the search time increases as the learning data increases. We propose a fast k-NN algorithm which improves the computation speed problem while taking the value of the k-NN algorithm. In the test environment, the k-NN algorithm was able to perform with only the comparison of the average of similarity of 19.71 times for 6.25 million malicious codes. Considering the way the algorithm works, Fast k-NN algorithm can also be used to search all data that can be vectorized as well as malware and SSDEEP. In the future, it is expected that if the k-NN approach is needed, and the central node can be effectively selected for clustering of large amount of data in various environments, it will be possible to design a sophisticated machine learning based system.

Powered infant formula and baby food contaminated with Enterobacter sakazakii were reported to cause infection among infants and to be associated with sporadic cases and outbreaks of sepsis, menigitis, cerebritis, and necrotizing enterocolitis. Salmonella contamination of infant formula has also been responsible for multiple outbreaks. Other species of Enterobacteriaceae in powdered infant formula may be causative agents, about which there has been no report. Other pathogenic bacteria have been isolated from powdered infant formula but they were not associated with outbreaks among infant. While Enterobacter sakazakii caused disease in all age groups, premature infants under 28 days old and with birth weight are most sensitive to its infection. Even if low contamination level of the bacteria in powdered infant formula and baby food may not cause infection, the possibility to multiplicate during preparation and storage of reconstituted formula may increase. The etiological factors and pathogenecity of S. sakazakii have not been elucidated. There were wide variability in phenotype and genotype between its strains. S. sakazakii has been isolated from factory facility and surroundings more frequently than Salmonella and thus factory environment should be the source for post-processing contamination of the formula with S. sakazakii. Considering current technology to manufacture power infant formula and baby food it is impossible to sterilize powdered formula but the frequency of outbreak hazard by S. sakazakii can be reduced by pasteurizing the formula base before drying and shortening storage time of the reconstituted formula.

Due to rapid advance of wireless communication technology, demand on data services in mobile environment is gradually increasing. Caching at a mobile client could reduce bandwidth consumption and query response time, and yet a mobile client must maintain cache consistency. It could be efficient for the server to broadcast a periodic cache invalidation report for cache consistency in a cell. In case that long period of disconnection prevents a mobile client from checking validity of its cache based solely on the invalidation report received, the mobile client could request the server to check cache validity. In doing so, some schemes may be more efficient than others depending on the number of available channels and the mobile clients involved. In this paper, we propose new cache consistency schemes, effects, efficient especially (1) when channel capacity is enough to deal with the mobile clients involved or (2) when that is not the case, and evaluate their performance.

In this paper, the alignment and navigation results by INGU(Inertial Navigation and Guidance Unit) onboard software and by Inertial Explorer which is a post-processing software specialized for IMU(Inertial Measurement Unit) are compared for identification of inertial sensor error models and estimation of alignment and navigation errors for KSLV-I INGU. For verification of the IMU error estimated by Kalman Filter of Inertial Explorer, the covariance parameters of inertial sensor error model state are identified by using stochastic error model of inertial sensors estimated by Allan variance and the alignment and navigation test with static condition and the land navigation test with dynamic condition are carried out. The validity of inertial sensor model for KSLV-I INGU is verified by comparison the alignment and navigation results of INGU on-board software and Inertial Explorer.
