  • 본 논문에서는 사이버 멀미 발생 예측에 활용 할 CNN 기반의 신경망의 성능 향상을 위하여, 다양한 형태의 신경망 구조에 대한 성능 분석을 수행한다. 특히, 대뇌 구조의 특성을 반영한 CNN을 차별적으로 구현하여 각 CNN(Convolution Neural Network)의 성능을 비교 분석하였으며, 이를 기반으로 사이버 멀미 발생 예측에 최적화된 신경망 구조의 설계와 관련한 기본적인 이론을 제시한다. 사이버 멀미 발생에는 많은 원인이 있지만 가장 중요한 원인은 뇌와 관련된 전정 기능의 장애에 기인한 것으로 판단된다. 뇌파는 뇌 활동 상태를 나타내는 지표 역할을 하며 외부 자극과 뇌 활동에 따라 차이를 나타낸다. 2019년에 출판된 Tony Ro의 Martijn E. Wokke 논문을 포함한 많은 연구와 실험에 의해 외부 자극과 뇌 활동으로 인한 뇌파의 변화가 입증되었으며, 본 논문에서는 이러한 상관관계를 바탕으로 사이버 멀미 유발 환경에서 수집 한 뇌파 데이터를 분석하고 뇌 구조의 특성을 반영하는 사이버 멀미 예측 인공 신경망의 구현 가능성을 제시하였다. 본 연구의 결과는 사이버 멀미 예측에 활용되는 CNN의 최적 성능 도출을 위하여, 고려하여야 할 신경망의 기본 구조 설계에 활용될 수 있으며, 다양한 가상현실(VR) 환경 등 대뇌 활동이 관여하는 분야에서 응용 될 신경망 구조 설계의 기초를 제공 할 것으로 기대된다.

  • In spite of variation in coat color, size, and production traits among indigenous Bangladeshi cattle populations, genetic differences among most of the populations have not been investigated or exploited. In this study, we used a high-density bovine single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) 80K Bead Chip derived from Bos indicus breeds to assess genetic diversity and population structure of 2 Bangladeshi zebu cattle populations (red Chittagong, n = 28 and non-descript deshi, n = 28) and a semi-domesticated population (gayal, n = 17). Overall, 95% and 58% of the total SNPs (69,804) showed polymorphisms in the zebu and gayal populations, respectively. Similarly, the average minor allele frequency value was as high 0.29 in zebu and as low as 0.09 in gayal. The mean expected heterozygosity varied from $0.42{\pm}0.14$ in zebu to $0.148{\pm}0.14$ in gayal with significant heterozygosity deficiency of 0.06 ($F_{IS}$) in the latter. Coancestry estimations revealed that the two zebu populations are weakly differentiated, with over 99% of the total genetic variation retained within populations and less than 1% accounted for between populations. Conversely, strong genetic differentiation ($F_{ST}=0.33$) was observed between zebu and gayal populations. Results of population structure and principal component analyses suggest that gayal is distinct from Bos indicus and that the two zebu populations were weakly structured. This study provides basic information about the genetic diversity and structure of Bangladeshi cattle and the semi-domesticated gayal population that can be used for future appraisal of breed utilization and management strategies.

  • Electrochemical behaviors of surface modified and MC3T3-E1 cell cultured Ti-30Ta alloys have been investigated using various electrochemical methods. The Ti alloys containing Ta were melted by using a vacuum furnace and then homogenized for 6 hrs at $1000^{\circ}C$. MC3T3-E1 cell culture was performed with MC3T3-E1 mouse osteoblasts for 2 days. The microstructures and corrosion resistance were measured using FE-SEM, XRD, EIS and potentiodynamic test in artificial saliva solution at $36.5{\pm}1^{\circ}C$. Ti-Ta alloy showed the martensite structure of ${\alpha}+{\beta}$ phase and micro-structure was changed from lamellar structure to needle-like structure as Ta content increased. Corrosion resistance increased as Ta content increased. Corrosion resistance of cell cultured Ti-Ta alloy increased predominantly in compared with non cell cultured Ti- Ta alloy due to inhibition of the dissolution of metal ion by covered cell. $R_p$ value of MC3T3-E1 cell cultured Ti-40 Ta alloy showed $1.60{\times}10^6{\Omega}cm^2$ which was higher than those of other Ti alloy. Polarization resistance of cell-cultured Ti-Ta alloy increased in compared with non-cell cultured Ti alloy.

  • This treatise is written in order to solve the important contradiction between the two theories; in oriental medicine psychological function is responsible for heart, but in western one it is responsible for brain. So we take the methods of studying in the aspects of morphological characteristics(MC) and visceral manifestation theory(VMT, 藏象論) and others about two organs-heart and brain. Brain(頭腦) is preferred to understand as a structure which is manifesting mental activity of heart. So the brain can be named with external heart(外心) corresponding to the relation of kidney(外 and external kidney. Saying conversely, the nutritional foundation of the mental function is the blood of heart, but the enlightening and insightful features of mentality make it's own residence move to the organ in the uppermost and positive site, that is head. And the close relationships on mental functions between heart and brain were discussed in various aspects, like investigation on east and west etymological literature, or Jiu gong and Taoist theory as well as Me and VMT, These understandings can make us know about the pathology of brain by itself. It has deep relations with heart fire and heart blood and kidney essence, and gastrointestinal function and liver with lung additionally. In another point, it makes the highly complicated psychological functions to be explained free from body relatively, and so can do a role in the complement of the strict 5 viscera theory.

  • 본 논문은 최근 활발하게 연구되고 있는 뇌-기계 접속을 위한 완전 삽입형 마이크로 시스템의 구현에 있어서 중요한 이슈들을 고찰한다. 현재까지의 과학 기술적 연구는 신경 신호 증폭기, 무선 신호 전송 등 주로 고성능 저전력 전자기기 및 시스템을 구현하는데 집중되어 왔으나, 마이크로 시스템의 실제적인 응용은 전자 기기의 특성뿐만 아니라 밀봉 구조의 디자인에서 뇌의 생리 해부학적 특성에 이르기까지 여러 가지 요인에 의해 영향을 받게 된다. 본 논문은 특히 뇌 삽입형 마이크로 시스템의 실질적인 구현에 결정적인 영향을 주는 시스템 발열의 영향, 신경 프로브의 감지 부피, 무선 데이터 전송 및 전력 전달, 그리고 뇌의 생리 해부학적인 고려 요인에 대해 논의한다.

  • From the RT-PCR amplifications using mRNA templates isolated from Sprague-Dawley rat brains, we isolated a cDNA fragment of 1,524 bp which covered the full coding information of the rat brain CYP2El. Its nucleotide sequence was identical to the previously reported rat liver CYP2El mRNA except for the difference of one base (A to C at the nucleotide position 73). This difference also altered the amino acid Lys to GIn. However, no insertion or deletion of nucleotide(s) which could alter the reading frame was found within the structure of this rat brain CYP2El. This study should provide the molecular basis regarding the pathophysiological function of CYP2El in the brain.

  • BEST family is a class of Ca2+-activated Cl- channels evolutionary well conserved from bacteria to human. The human BEST paralogs (BEST1-BEST4) share significant amino acid sequence homology in the N-terminal region, which forms the transmembrane helicases and contains the direct calcium-binding site, Ca2+-clasp. But the cytosolic C-terminal region is less conserved in the paralogs. Interestingly, this domain-specific sequence conservation is also found in the BEST1 orthologs. However, the functional role of the C-terminal region in the BEST channels is still poorly understood. Thus, we aimed to understand the functional role of the C-terminal region in the human and mouse BEST1 channels by using electrophysiological recordings. We found that the calcium-dependent activation of BEST1 channels can be modulated by the C-terminal region. The C-terminal deletion hBEST1 reduced the Ca2+-dependent current activation and the hBEST1-mBEST1 chimera showed a significantly reduced calcium sensitivity to hBEST1 in the HEK293 cells. And the C-terminal domain could regulate cellular expression and plasma membrane targeting of BEST1 channels. Our results can provide a basis for understanding the C-terminal roles in the structure-function of BEST family proteins.

  • In this work, we used impedance spectroscopy analysis to determine the effect of the $HfO_X$ treatment on the surface of ITO and to model the equivalent circuit for OLEDs. Devices with an ITO/Organic material/Al structure can be modeled as resistances and capacitances arranged in parallel or in series. The number of elements depends on the composition of the structure, essentially the number of layers, and the contacts.

  • Hippocampus is a complex brain structure embedded deep into the temporal lobe. Studies have shown that this structure gets affected by neurological and psychiatric disorders and it is a significant landmark for diagnosing neurodegenerative diseases. Hippocampus features play very significant roles in region-of-interest based analysis for disease diagnosis and prognosis. In this study, we have attempted to learn the embeddings of this important biomarker. As conventional metric learning methods for feature embedding is known to lacking in capturing semantic similarity among the data under study, we have trained deep Siamese convolutional neural network for learning metric of the hippocampus. We have exploited Gwangju Alzheimer's and Related Dementia cohort data set in our study. The input to the network was pairs of three-view patches (TVPs) of size 32 × 32 × 3. The positive samples were taken from the vicinity of a specified landmark for the hippocampus and negative samples were taken from random locations of the brain excluding hippocampi regions. We have achieved 98.72% accuracy in verifying hippocampus TVPs.
