  • The potential antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effect of water and ethanol extracts from Flammulina velutipes (Curtis) Singer (FVS) on hydrogen peroxide ($H_2O_2$) and LPS-induced oxidative damage in PC-12 and RAW264.7 cells were investigated. The DPPH radical scavenging activities of the water extract from FVS was the highest, and the 50% inhibitory concentration value was 0.388 mg/mL. Also, the antioxidant activities of water and ethanol extracts were determined by ferric reducing antioxidant power, 2,2'-azino-bis-(3-ethybenzothiazoline-6-sulphonic acid) radical scavenging activity. In addition, water extract from FVS showed a strongly inhibitory effect on lipid peroxidation by measuring ferric thiocyanate values. The water extract decreased cell apoptosis in PC-12 cells against $H_2O_2$-induced oxidative damage. In addition, FVS extracts exhibited the strongest nitric oxide (NO) inhibition activity. It was also found that FVS extract inhibited LPS-induced iNOS and COX-2 expression in RAW264.7 cells. The findings of the present study suggest that extracts of FVS exhibit anti-oxidative and anti-inflammatory activity against oxidative stress and/or stimulated cells.

  • The objective of this study is to re-examine the theory of Pansori (Korean musical storytelling genre) originating in Chinese tale-song literature. The said theory, first presented by Kim Hak-ju, succeeded in confirming the common points and association between Pansori and the Chinese tale-song literature, but failed to present the supporting ground for proving that Pansori originated in the said Chinese genre by comparing the contents of works and their performance type. In actuality, it was confirmed that the common factors of Pansori and the said Chinese genre naturally resulted from the performance situation where both genres should involve one singer chanting epics and simultaneously performing various roles and functions. In addition, it was confirmed that such identity of performance environment made the Pansori clown theory and the Gosagye tale-song(鼓詞系講唱) theory very similar. In addition, it was confirmed that, for one singer to present the wide spectrum of epic to the audience, the realistic description was the main part of literary style of both tale-song literature and Pansori, and furthermore it was revealed that, in the literary style of both tale-song literature and Pansori, the mixed use of time and temporal penetration were free. If a long performance of musical storytelling can be conceptualized in terms of 'tale-song' or 'oral epic', the Chinese tale-song literature and Pansori had similarity in the bigger frame of 'tale-song' or 'oral epic' and yet developed to have their own features.

  • Dynamic Compressors in vocal recordings of modern pop music are essential equipment. Dynamic compressors are applied not only to the mix for listening to music but also to the monitor for the singer to listen to his voice along with the accompaniment while the singer is recording. This study is an experimental study on the effects of a dynamic compressor applied to a monitor environment on the vocal performance of a singer. 10 participating singers participated in the blind test to test how the vocals heard through the monitor would be affected by the 1:1, 2:1 and 4:1 compression ratio. Experimental results show that the higher the compression ratio applied to the monitor, the bigger the song, the brighter the tone, but the pitch becomes finer inaccuracy on the bigger dynamic part of the song. In post-interviews with blinds, it was found that singers generally preferred to hear compressed sound through a compressor on the monitor. Since the music used in the experiment was a ballad with a wide dynamic range, it could not be generalized to all kind of music recordings, but it could provide important implications for the monitoring of recording sites. In addition, We hope that the cognitive science approach to recording technology will be added based on this paper which has been studied through empirical studies on the effect of the monitor environment on the singing voice.

  • 지금까지 뇌에는 컴퓨터와 같은 클럭(clock) 신호가 없고 신경들 간의 활동은 비동기적이라고 알려져 왔다. 그러나, 1989년 Singer 연구 그룹에서 시각 피질에 있는 많은 신경들이 발진하며 이들 간에는 시각 영상에 따라 동기현상을 보인다고 발표한 후, 많은 실험과 모델링이 행해지고 있다. 이 분야의 응용으로는 여러 분야가 있으며, 특히 동기 발진 모델을 이용하였을 경우에 패턴 분리와 인식에 응용될 수 있다. 본 고에서는 신경회로망의 새로운 기류인 생물학적 발진 신경망의 실험과 모델링에 대한 동향을 분석하고자 한다.

  • The OSS2 (Oj?me-Shavitt-Singer 2)[L. Oj?me et al., J. Chem. Phys. 109, 5547 (1998)] model for the solvated proton in water is examined for $H_2O,\;H_3O^+,\;H_5O_2^+,\;H_7O_3^+,\;and\;H_9O_4^-$ by molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. The equilibrium molecular geometries and energies obtained from MD simulations at 5.0 and 298.15 K agree very well with the optimized calculations.

  • The purpose of this paper is to prove that the noncommutative version of the Singer-Wermer Conjecture is affirmative under certain conditions. Let A be a noncommutative Banach algebra. We show that if there exists a continuous linear Jordan derivation D : A ${\rightarrow}$ A such that [D(x), x]$D(x)^3{\in}$ rad(A) for all $x{\in}A$, then D(A) ${\subseteq}$ rad(A).

  • Let the circle act on a compact oriented manifold with a discrete fixed point set. At each fixed point, there are positive integers called weights, which describe the local action of S1 near the fixed point. In this paper, we provide the author's original proof that only uses the Atiyah-Singer index formula for the classification of the weights at the fixed points if the dimension of the manifold is 4 and there are at most 4 fixed points, which made the author possible to give a classification for any finite number of fixed points.

  • 음악의 시대적인 변화에 따라 현대에는 노래하는 창법이 매우 다양해졌다. 또한 노래하기 원하는 많은 사람들이 바람직하지 못한 방법으로 연습한 뒤에 성대 결절 등의 치명적인 상처를 얻게 되기도 한다. 허스키(Husky)한 목소리로 노래해야만 개성이 있는 목소리라는 잘못된 인식의 결과를 피하기 위해서는 많은 시간을 노력 해야만 하는 또 다른 준비과정이 필요하다. 그러므로 본 논문에서는 노래하는 사람이 노래하고자 하는 곡을 평상시에 말할 때처럼 자연스럽고 편안하며 자유롭게 노래로 표현하기 위해 과학적으로 연습하는 과정에 대해 설명하고자 한다.

  • Several input shaping techniques are suggested to reduce the vibration of a flexible manipulator. The theories of typical 4 methods(Singer, Tuttle, Feddema, Zuo) are explained and are tested by the experiment of one link flexible manipulator. Zuo's method is the best of all with respect to its robustness.
