The matching score evaluating human copying ability can be a good measure to check children's developmental stages, or sports movements like golf swing and dance, etc. It also can be used as HCI for AR, VR applications. This paper presents a method to evaluate the motion similarity between demonstrator who initiates movement and participant who follows the demonstrator action. We present a quantification method of the similarity which utilizes Euclidean L2 distance of Openpose keypoins vector similarity. The proposed method adapts DTW, thus can flexibly cope with the time delayed motions.

In a distribution of digital image, there is a serious problem that is a distribution of the altered image by a forger. For the problem solution, this paper proposes a median filtering (MF) image forensic decision algorithm using a feature vector according to the pixel value's gradients. In the proposed algorithm, AR (Autoregressive) coefficients are computed from pixel value' gradients of original image then 1th~6th order coefficients to be six feature vector. And the reconstructed image is produced by the solution of Poisson's equation with the gradients. From the difference image between original and its reconstructed image, four feature vector (Average value, Max. value and the coordinate i,j of Max. value) is extracted. Subsequently, Two kinds of the feature vector combined to 10 Dim. feature vector that is used in the learning of a SVM (Support Vector Machine) classification for MF (Median Filtering) detector of the altered image. On the proposed algorithm of the median filtering detection, compare to MFR (Median Filter Residual) scheme that had the same 10 Dim. feature vectors, the performance is excellent at Unaltered, Averaging filtering ($3{\times}3$) and JPEG (QF=90) images, and less at Gaussian filtering ($3{\times}3$) image. However, in the measured performances of all items, AUC (Area Under Curve) by the sensitivity and 1-specificity is approached to 1. Thus, it is confirmed that the grade evaluation of the proposed algorithm is 'Excellent (A)'.

For an aspect ratio (transport length-to-width) of 5, Pr=3.34, Le=0.078, Pe=4.16, Cv=1.01, $P_B=50$ Torr, only thermally buoyancy-driven convection ($Gr=4.83{\times}10^5$) is considered in this study in spite of the disparity in the molecular weights of the component A ($Hg_2Cl_2$) and B which would cause thermally and/or solutally buoyancy-driven convection. The crystal growth rate and the maximum velocity vector magnitude are decreased exponentially for $3{\le}Ar{\le}5$, for (1) adiabatic walls and (2) the linear temperature profile, with a fixed source temperature. This is related to the finding that the effects of side walls tend to stabilize convection in the growth reactor. The rate for the linear temperature profiles walls is slightly greater than for the adiabatic walls far varied temperature differences and aspect ratios. With the imposed thermal profile, a fixed source region, both the rate and the maximum velocity vector magnitude increase linearly with increasing the temperature difference for $10{\le}{\Delta}T{\le}50K$.

A high resolution digital cinematic Particle Image Velocimetry(PIV) has been developed. The system consists of a high speed CCD camera, a continuous Ar-ion laser and a computer with camera controller. To improve the spatial resolution, we adopt a Recursive Technique for velocity interrogation. At first, we obtain a velocity vector for a larger interrogation window size based on the conventional two-frame cross-correlation PIV analysis using the FFT algorithm. Based on the knowing velocity information, more spatially resolved velocity vectors are obtained in the next iteration step with smaller interrogation windows. The correct velocity vector at the first step is found to be critical, so we apply a Multiple Correlation Validation(MCV) technique in order to decrease the spurious vectors. The MCV technique turns out to improve SNR(Signal to Noise Ratio) of the correlation table. The developed cinematic PIV method has been applied to the measurement of the unsteady flow characteristics of a Rushton turbine mixer. A total of 3,245 instantaneous velocity vectors were successfully obtained with 4 ms time resolution. The acquired spatial resolution corresponds the performance of the conventional high resolution digital PIV system using a $1K{\times}1K$ CCD camera.

In general, a stock index and its individual stocks are assumed to follow a random walk. A stock index is an important source of information and one that is seen by people everyday, regardless of their investment intentions. This paper examines the correlation between the KOSPI-the index that best reflects the Korean stock market and the macro - economic variables that have been found to influence the index by previous studies. The sample period considers the years after 2000 when the Korean stock market matured as restrictions on foreign investors were removed. For this purpose, a Vector Error Correction Model (VECM) and KOSPI equation with a general pacific approach were used. This paper aims at verifying the factors that determined the KOSPI after 2000 and at examining whether there was structural change in the investment environment. It also investigates changes in the factors determining the KOSPI's performance as a result of structural changes in the investment environment. The V AR (Vector Autoregressive) model including the nine variables was selected as a baseline model whose stability was tested using the unit root test. The results from the VECM and the structural changes in the investment environment can be summarized by the following Inner story points.

The nuclear matrix was isolated from Misgumus mizolepis liver nuclei by low salt extraction and restriction enzyme treatment. The structure was digested with proteinase K. After centrifugation, matrix attachment regions (MARs) were obtained by RNase treatment and phenol-chloroform extraction. The result leads to the appearance of smeared bands in the range of about 0.3-15 kb. pURY19 vector was constructed by inserting 2.13 kb Eco47 III fragment of the yeast uracil 3 gene into the unique Ssp I site of pUC19 plasmid vector as a selection marker. This vector is unable to be maintained in Sacrharomyces cerevisiae by itself since it cannot replicate as an extrachromosomal element. Using this system, we attempted cloning the ARS (autonomously replicating sequence) from M. mizelepis to develop an efficient expression vector for the transgenic fish. pURY19N_{l-62}$ were constructed by inserting MARs in pURY19 plasmid vector and transformation of E. coli $DH5\alpha$. Replication origins (ARS) of M. mizolepis were isolated, which enabled the vector to replicate autonomously in S. cerevisiae. The cloned DNA fragments were sequenced by Sanger's dideoxy-chain termination method. All clones were AT-rich. $pURY19N_6$, one of the clones, expecially contained ARS consensus sequence, Topoisomerase II consensus, near A-box and T-box.

In this paper, we designed an LSF coefficient quantizer of the wideband speech codec that can produce high quality speech service. For the efficient LSF coefficient quantizer, the interframe correlation was used. Also we separately quantized the LSF coefficients with high and low interframe correlation. Predictive pyramid vector quantizer (PVQ) was used for quantizing the LSF coefficients with high interframe correlation, and PVQ was used for quantizing the LSF coefficients with low interframe correlation. Experiments show that the proposed UF quantizer can quantize LSF information in 40 bits/frame, with an average spectral distortion (SD) of 1 dB and less than 3.87% frames having SD greater than 2 dB.

An autonomous replication sequence (ARS) derived from Cephalosporium acremonium ATCC 20339 was cloned in Sarchuromyces cerevisiae SHY 3 using YIp5 as a cloning vector. A new recombinant plasmid, designated pCY-2, which contained a 3.7 kb BamHI fragment of C. acrenzonium DNA showed the highest stability among the 40 recombinant plasmids composed of the YIp5 2nd ARS of C. ucremoniztm. Also, Southern hybridization and transformation of E, cull with DNA purified from yeast transformants verified that pCY-2 autonomously replicates in yeasts. Transformation efficiency and plasmid stability of pCY-2 in yeast were higher than those ol YRp 7 containing ARS which originated from yeast. Detailed studies by subcloning revealed that two ARSs existed within 2.6 kb of the insert, which is a novel discovery. However, it was concluded that these two ARSs were ligated during the gene manipulation in vitro.

A modified $\delta$-endotoxin gene of Bacillus thuringiensis ssp. tenebrionis (B.t.t.), encoding a coleoptera-specific toxin, was utilized to transform citrus plants, Citrus reticulata Blanco 'Ponkan' mandarian. By co-culturing the nucelli with Agrobacterium tumefaciens harboring the modified gene in the binary vector pBinAR-Btt, the chimeric toxin gene was transferred into citrus plants. The transgenic plants were selected on modified Murashige and Skoog medium containing kanamycin. Hybridization experiments demonstrated that the transgenic plants contained and expressed the toxin protein gene.
