In this paper, we studied two image characteristics, similarity and smoothness, which give rise to local and global redundancy in image representation. The similarty means that any patterns in the image repeat itself anywhere in the rest of image. The smoothness means that the gray level values within a given block vary gradually rather than abruptly. In this sense, we propose a lossless medical image compression scheme which exploits both types of redundancy. This method segments the image into variable size blocks and encodes them depending on characteristics of the block. The proposed compression schemes works better than other compression schemes such as the huffman, the arithmetic, the Lempel-Ziv and the lossless scheme of JPEG.

This study was initiated to investigate similarity and intraspecific variation in pollen morphology of korean subgenus. lepidobalanus Endl, of the genus Quercus L. The parameters measured were polar axis length (PL), equatorial width (EW), colpus length (CL) and copus width (CW), and PE (PL/EW) retios were calculated. The cluster analysis based on these variables of this result showed that the similarity between Q. acutissima Carruther and Q. variabilis Blume was the highest. Wide variation in the pollen grain size of Quercus dentata Thunb. ex Murray might imply, the existence of polyploid and/or aneuploid forms. Studies of ploidy levels within species are recommended for Lepidobalanus species.

Model materials are developed to achieve similarity of flow patterns for mild steels in forming processes at high temperatures. The model materials consist of pure plasticine and one or two additives such as resin and lanolin. To verify the similarity of flow patterns between physical modeling and compression of mild steels at high temperatures, ring and compression tests have been carried out with the developed-model materials at various strain rates, temperatures and lubricants. The test results are in good agreement with the flow patterns obtained from upsetting of a mild steel at high temperatures.

This study was carried out for comparing Listeria strains developing genetic markers for Listeroa strains using Listeria sp. genetic markers using Randomly Amlymorphic DNA (RAPD) analysis method. Five of RAPD promers (OPA-01, OP-26-01, OP-26-02, OPB-01, OP-26-10) showed the distinctive polymorphism among Kisteria sp. isolated from domestic foods. RAPD-PCR with five arbitrary primers produced 76 DNA polymorphism. Among them, OPA-01 and OP-26-01 primers produced about 1.5kb and 0.7 kb amplified DNA fragments for all the Listeric relationships of Listeria sp. using NTSYS program were grouped into 7 clusters and showed 0.54 to 0.93 similarity among strains. Especially, No. 3 and No. 20 isolates showed the genetically most similar relationship by 0.94, and No. 7 and No. 24, or No. 7 and N0. 45 isolates showed the least similarty by 0.54 From these results, RAPD analysis method deemed to be successfully applied the classification and genetic analysis for Listeria sp. isolates.

Hydrodynamic similarity was analyzed by employing scaling factor in three phase fluidized beds. The scaling factor was defined based on the holdups of gas, liquid and solid particles and effectivity volumetric flux of fluids between the two kinds of fluidized beds with different column diameter. The column diameter of one was 0.102 m and that of the other was 0.152 m. Filtered compressed air, tap water and glass bead of which density was 2,500 kg/$m^3$ were used as gas, liquid and solid phases, respectively. The individual phase holdups in three phase fluidized beds were determined by means of static pressure drop method. Effects of gas and liquid velocities and particle size on the scaling factors based on the holdups of each phase and effective volumetric flux of fluids were examined. The deviation of gas holdup between the two kinds of three phase fluidized beds decreased with increasing gas or liquid velocity but increased with increasing fluidized particle size. The deviation of liquid holdup between the two fluidized beds decreased with increasing gas or liquid velocity or size of fluidized solid particles. The deviation of solid holdup between the two fluidized beds increased with increasing gas velocity or particle size, however, decreased with increasing liquid velocity. The deviation of effective volumetric flux of fluids between the two fluidized beds decreased with increasing gas velocity or particle size, but increased with increasing liquid velocity. The scaling factor, which was defined in this study, could be effectively used to analyze the hydrodynamic similarity in three phase fluidized processes.
