Agricultural products are easily deformable its shape because of some external forces. However, these force behavior is difficult to measure quantitatively. Until now, many researches on the mechanical property was performed with various methods such as material testing, chemical analysis and non-destructive methods. In order to investigate force behavior on the cellular unit of agricultural products, electro-microscope based 3D image processing method will contribute to analysis of plant cells behavior. Before image measurement of plant cells, plant sample was cut off cross-sectioned area in a size of almost 300-400 ${\mu}$ m units using the micron thickness device, and some of preprocessing procedure was performed with fixing and dyeing. However, the wall structure of plant cell is closely neighbor each other, it is necessary to separate its boundary pixel. Therefore, image merging and shrinking algorithm was adopted to avoid disconnection. After then, boundary pixel was traced through thinning algorithm. Each image from the electro-microscope has a information of x,y position and its height along the z axis cross sectioned image plane. 3D image was constructed using the continuous image combination. Major feature was acquired from a fault image and measured area, thickness of cell wall, shape and unit cell volume. The shape of plant cell was consist of multiple facet shape. Through this measured information, it is possible to construct for structure shape of unit plant cell. This micro unit image processing techniques will contribute to the filed of agricultural mechanical property and will use to construct unit cell model of each agricultural products and information of boundary will use for finite element analysis on unit cell image.

In this study, we conducted numerical analyses using the Taguchi method and finite element method to calculate the thermal deformation of a printed circuit board and the effect of design factors on the thermal deformation. Analysis results showed that the thermal deformation of the panel had the strongest effect on the thermal deformation and shape of the strip and unit. In particular, the deformation in the z direction was larger than that in the xy-plane direction. The effect of design factors and the design conditions for reducing the thermal deformation of the panel and strip changed at the unit level. Therefore, it is recommended that panel-level thermal deformation must be controlled to reduce the final thermal deformation at the unit level because the thermal deformation of the strip strongly affects that of the unit.

The purposes of this study were to evaluate the removal characteristics of COD, Ni, and P and to derive appropriate operating conditions for the plating wastewater according to NaOCl reaction time and pH operating conditions in the BPC unit process during the plating wastewater treatment process. As a results of evaluating the removal characteristics for raw wastewater by each BPC unit process, the removal efficiencies of COD, Ni and P in BPC 1-1 unit process were 72.8%, 99.1%, and 100.0%. Therefore, the proper reaction time of NaOCl was derived as 21.1 minutes. In order to maintain the +800 mV ORP and the reaction time of 20 minutes, the temporary injection and continuous injection of NaOCl in the BPC unit process were 13.7 mL and 18.7 mL, respectively. It was found that the temporary injection method of NaOCl reduced the chemical cost by 36.5% compared to the continuous injection method. Also, Ni showed the highest removal efficiency of 97.8% at pH 10.5. On the other hand, P showed a removal efficiency of 57.4% at pH 10.0.

In a large corpus-based speech synthesizer, a break, which is a parameter influencing the naturalness and intelligibility, is used as an important feature during a unit selection process. Japanese is a language having intonations, which ate indicated by the relative differences in pitch heights and the APs(Accentual Phrases) are placed according to the changes of the accents while a break occurs on a boundary of the APs. Although a break can be predicted by using J-ToBI(Japanese-Tones and Break Indices), which is a rule-based or statistical approach, it is very difficult to predict a break exactly due to the flexibility. Therefore, in this paper, a method is to conduct a unit search by dividing breaks into two types, such as a fixed break and a flexible break, in order to use the advantages of a large-scale corpus, which includes various types of prosodies. As a result of an experiment, the proposed unit selection method contributed itself to enhance the naturalness of synthesized speeches.

This paper presents a new algorithm on low power survivor path memory implementation of the trace-back systolic array Viterbi algorithm. A novel idea is to reuse the already-generated trace-back routes to reduce the number of trace-back operations. And the spurious switching activity of the trace-back unit is reduced by making use of a clock gating method. Using the SYNOPSYS power estimation tool, DesignPower, our experimental result shows the average $40{\%}$ power reduction and $23{\%}$ area increase against the trace-back unit introduced in [1].

In this paper, a simple but effective algorithm to reduce the computational complexity of thumbnail generation and to improve image quality without aliasing artifacts is proposed. For the high speed decoding, the proposed algorithm performs partial decoding per $4{\times}4$ boundary in TU(Transform Unit), and preforms TU boundary in PU(Prediction Unit). The proposed method defines the weights based on intra prediction directions and estimates the thumbnail pixel by using that weights. this method remains thumbnail extraction time and improves thumbnail image quality compared with conventional algorithms.

The maltose binding protein (MBP) fusion protein system is a versatile tool to express and isolate recombinant proteins in E. coli. In this system, MBP fusion proteins are efficiently isolated from whole cell lysate using amylose conjugated agarose beads and then eluted by competition with free maltose. Since MBP is a rather large molecule (∼42 kDa), for further experiments, the MBP part is usually proteolytically cleaved from the fusion protein and subsequently removed by ion-exchange chromatography or rebinding to amylose columns after washing out excess and MBP-bound maltose. In the present study, we have developed an improved method for the removal of cleaved MBP, which is advantageous over conventional methods. In this method, factor Xa cleaved MBP fusion proteins were incubated with Sepharose beads conjugated with MBP specific monoclonal antibodies and then precipitated buy centrifugation, resulting in highly purified proteins in the supernatant.

In this paper, the way that input voltage and input line current as a control variable is provided as one unit is projected. Till no, have denied with three phase balanced load. But, in that case, total power factor compensation is difficult, for to control each phase at unbalanced load. Therefor, in this paper suggest of the scheme that three phase unbalanced load is controlled by each phase and input total power factor is compensated unit input factor. therefore, in this paper suggest that three phase unbalanced load is controlled and the method in compensation of unit input factor to be attended by unbalanced load. Besides, the object of control is calculating quantity for input voltage and input line current for the point at issuse make to improve of control method at unbalanced load. As a result, control system of each phase could maintain as a unit input total power factor has been state diviation error of 2% with unbalanced load.
