Stellar wind and radiation pressure from massive stars can trigger the formation of new generation of stars. The sequential age distribution of stars, the morphology of cometary globules, and bright-rimmed clouds have been accepted as evidence of triggered star formation. However, these characteristics do not necessarily suggest that new generation of stars are formed by the feedback of massive stars. In order to search for any physical connection between star forming events, we have initiated a study of gas and stellar kinematics in NGC 1893, where two prominent cometary nebulae are facing toward O-type stars. The spectra of gas and stars in optical and near-infrared (NIR) wavelength are obtained with Hectochelle on the 6.5m MMT and Immersion GRating INfrared Spectrograph on the 2.7m Harlan J. Smith Telescope at McDonald observatory. In this study, the radial velocity field of gas across the cluster is investigated using $H{\alpha}$ and [N II] ${\lambda}$ 6584 emission lines, and that of the cometary nebula Sim 130 is also probed using 1-0 S(1) transition line of $H_2$. We report a distinctive velocity field of the cometary nebulae and many ro-vibrational transitions of $H_2$ even at high energy levels in the NIR spectra. These properties indicate the interaction between the cometary nebulae and O-type stars, and this fact can be a clue to triggered star formation in NGC 1893.

During civil engineering construction near Sejong-ro, Jongro-ku, Seoul, cultural sites were found that are thought to have been built in the 15th century. This area was home to many different people as well as the leaders of the Yi dynasty. To gain further insight into the life styles of the inhabitants of the old capital, soil samples were collected from various areas such as toilets, water foundations, and drainage ways. Parasite eggs were examined by microscopy after 5 g soil samples were rehydrated in 0.5% trisodium phosphate solution. A total of 662 parasite eggs from 7 species were found. Species with the highest number of eggs found were Ascaris lumbricoides (n=483), followed by Trichuris trichiura (138), Trichuris vulpis (21), Fasciola hepatica (8), Clonorchis sinensis (6), Paragonimus westermani (4), and Metagonimus yokogawai (2). These findings indirectly indicate the food habits of the people in Yi dynasty.

An extracellular matrix protein, transforming growth factor-beta-induced protein (TGFBIp/βig-h3), which is induced by transforming growth factor-β in the human cornea, skin, and matrix of many connective tissues, is associated with the adhesion, migration, proliferation, and differentiation of various cells. TGFBIp contains four homologous repeat domains, known as FAS1 domains, where certain mutations have been considered to cause corneal dystrophies. In this study, backbone NMR assignments of FAS1-3/FAS1-4 tandem domain were obtained and compared with those previously known for the isolated FAS1-4 domain. The results corroborate in solution the inter-domain interaction between FAS1-3 and FAS1-4 in TGFBIp.

현재 측위에 대한 측정 대상이 점점 작아지면서, 그에 따른 정확도 까지 높아지고 있다. 실내 측위에 관한 기술은 대표적으로 단말기의 수신신호의 세기방식인 RSS(Received Signal Strength), 수신신호의 도달시간 방식 TOA(Time of Arrival), 수신 신호의 도달 시간차 방식 TDOA(Time Difference of Arrival), 수신신호의 입사각 방식인 AOA(Angle of Arrival) 등 여러 가지 기술이 활발히 진행되고 있다. 본 논문은 특수 장비를 사용하지 않고, 무선 네트워크 기반의 실내 측위 중에 정확도가 높은 Fingerprinting 방법을 택하였다. WLAN 기반 실내측위에 가장 많이 사용되는 KNN은 k개의 이웃수와 RP의 수에 따라 민감하다. 본 논문에서는 KNN 성능을 향상 시키기 위해 SVM 이용하여 SNR 데이터를 군집화를 적용한 KNN과 SVM을 혼합한 알고리즘을 제안하였다. 제안한 알고리즘은 신호잡음비 데이터를 KNN 방법에 적용하여 k개의 RP를 선택한 후 선택된 RP의 신호잡음비를 SVM에 적용하여 k개의 RP를 군집하여 분류한다. 실험 결과 위치 오차가 2m이내에 KNN/SVM 혼합 알고리즘이 KNN 알고리즘보다 성능이 우수하다.

무선 센서 네트워크는 특정지역에 센서 노드를 설치하여 주변 정보 또는 특정 목적의 데이터를 수집하고, 그 정보를 수집하는 싱크(Sink)로 구성되어 있다. 무선 센서 네트워크의 수명은 망을 구성하는 센서 노드의 베터리 소비에 따라 수명이 결정 되고 하나의 노드가 죽기 시작하면서부터 급격하게 센서 노드의 베터리 소비가 커져 빠르게 죽는다. 무선 센서 네트워크를 구성하는 센서노드는 라우팅, 센싱을 수행하기 때문에 베터리 소비에 많은 부담을 가지고 있다. 본 논문은 무선 센서 네트워크의 대표적 클러스터링 기반 라우팅 기법인 LEACH(Low - Energy Adaptive Clustering Hierarchy)프로토콜에 SVM(Support Vector Machine)을 적용하여 센서노드의 균형적인 베터리 소비로 망을 효율적으로 관리하고 망의 수명을 개선 할 수 있는 방법을 제안 한다. 이러한 센서 노드의 균형적인 베터리 소비로 무선센서 네트워크의 수명을 개선 한다. 실험결과 기존의 LEACH 프로토콜보다 우수한 성능을 보인다.

Assessment of plant genetic resources is applicable when breeding improved plant caltivars. In Korea, early maturing wheat germplasm is anticipated for wheat-rice double-cropping. In this study, we assessed five agronomical traits including days of heading after sowing(HD), days of maturity after sowing(MD), culm length(CL), ear length(EL), and thousand grain weight(TW) of 500 wheat germplasms collected form 10 different countries (Mexico, the United States, Afghanistan, Ethiopia, India, Japan, China, Turkey, Pakistan and Portugal), and grown in Korea. Besides, the correlation between the agronomical traits was analyzed using XLSTAT softerware version 2019 (Addinsoft, NY, USA). The result showed wide-ranging maturity period. Among the entire population, 2 accessions (K256306/JPN/breeding line and K256328/JPN/breeding line) that matured early were identified. Furthermore, HD showed strong correlation with MD (r=0.684) and CL (r=0.610), and weak correlation with the rest two agronomical traits (EL and TW). Overall, the results of our study provides wide spectrum of prospects, and could be applicable to breed new wheat varieties with early maturity.

In this study, we predicted areas vulnerable to ground subsidence near abandoned underground coal mine at Sam-cheok City in Korea using a probability (frequency ratio) model with Geographic Information System (GIS). To extract the factors related to ground subsidence, a spatial database was constructed from a topographical map, geo-logical map, mining tunnel map, land characteristic map, and borehole data on the study area including subsidence sites surveyed in 2000. Eight major factors were extracted from the spatial analysis and the probability analysis of the surveyed ground subsidence sites. We have calculated the decision coefficient ($R^2$) to find out the relationship between eight factors and the occurrence of ground subsidence. The frequency ratio model was applied to deter-mine each factor's relative rating, then the ratings were overlaid for ground subsidence hazard mapping. The ground subsidence hazard map was then verified and compared with the surveyed ground subsidence sites. The results of verification showed high accuracy of 96.05% between the predicted hazard map and the actual ground subsidence sites. Therefore, the quantitative analysis of ground subsidence near abandoned underground coal mine would be possible with a frequency ratio model and a GIS.

The purpose of this study is to reveal spatial relationships between landslide and geospatial data set, to map the landslide susceptibility using the relationship and to verify the landslide susceptibility using the landslide occurrence data in Boun area in 1998. Landslide locations were detected from aerial photography and field survey, and then topography, soil, forest, and land cover data set were constructed as a spatial database using GIS. Various spatial parameters were used as the landslide occurrence factors. They are slope, aspect, curvature and type of topography, texture, material, drainage and effective thickness of soil. type, age, diameter and density of wood, lithology, distance from lineament and land cover. To calculate the relationship between landslides and geospatial database, Bayesian probability methods, weight of evidence. were applied and the contrast value that is >$W^{+}$->$W^{-}$ were calculated. The landslide susceptibility index was calculated by summation of the contrast value and the landslide susceptibility maps were generated using the index. The landslide susceptibility map can be used to reduce associated hazards, and to plan land cover and construction.

This study was undertaken to find the optimum condition for the Maillard browning reaction of tagatose and glycine model solution by applying the response surface methodology. Independent variables were pH (3, 5, 7), temperature (70, 85, $100^{\circ}C$), and time (60, 180, 300 min), while the dependent variables were absorbance, yellowness, color difference, and organoleptic score. The quadratic models with the cross-product proved to be suitable, due to the high coefficients of determination and the lack of fit results. Since all the dependent variables had saddle points, the optimal points were determined through ridge analysis. For absorbance, yellowness, and color difference, the optimal points were the lowest values; in contrast, the optimal point of organoleptic score was the highest value.

This study was conducted to observe the effect of various kinds of sugars and their molar concentrations on the Maillard browning reaction. To observe the effects of various kinds of sugar, glucose, fructose, tagatose, xylose, and sucrose were employed. A model solution consisting of 0.2 M sugar and 0.2 M glycine was prepared and heated at $100^{\circ}C$ for 5 hr. The model solution with adjusted concentrations of either tagatose or glycine was also heated at $100^{\circ}C$ for 5 hr. Tagatose showed the fastest Maillard reaction, followed by xylose, fructose, glucose, and sucrose. After glycine concentration of the model solution was fixed, the model solution showed more browning with an increase in tagatose concentration. When the tagatose concentration of the model solution was fixed, the model solution showed more browning with an increase in glycine concentration. The model solution with a fixed concentration of glycine showed more more browning than that with a fixed concentration of tagatose, since the former had higher amounts of the reactant.
