  • This paper is related to the Region-based Spectral Correlation Estimation(RSCE) coding method that makes it possible to achieve the high-compression ratio by estimating color component images from luminance image. The proposed method is composed of three steps. First, Y/C bit-plane summation image is defined using normalized chrominance summation image and luminance image, and then the Y/C bit-plane summation image is segmented for extracting the shape information of the regions. Secondly, the scale factor and the offset factor minimizing the approximation square errors between luminance image and R, B images by the each region are calculated. Finally, the scale factor and the offset factor for the each region are encoded into bit stream. Referring to the results of computer simulation, the proposed method provides more than two or three times higher compression ratio than JPEG/Baseline or JPEG2000/EBCOT algorithm in terms of bpp needed for encoding two color component images with the same PSNR.

  • The objective of this study was to screen single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of the chicken lipoprotein lipase gene (LPL), using 545 F1 hybrids developed from $4{\times}4$ diallel crossing of four chicken breeds, and to analyze the associations between polymorphisms of the LPL and chicken fat deposition traits. PCR-SSCP was used to detect SNPs in LPL. Fifteen sets of primers were designed to amplify DNA fragments covering the 5'flanking and coding regions of LPL. It showed that there existed 5 polymorphic loci in the 5'flanking region and coding region, respectively. Association analysis was carried out between 10 polymorphic loci and intermuscular fat width, abdominal fat weight, and thickness of subcutaneous fat using ANCOVA, respectively. The results indicated that, in the 5'flanking region, the loci d and e significantly affected thickness of subcutaneous fat (p<0.05), abdominal fat weight (p<0.01) and subcutaneous fat (p<0.05), while in the coding region, synonymous mutation in exon 8 was significantly associated with intermuscular fat width (p<0.05), however, the non-synonymous mutations in exon 7 and exon 9 did not show statistically significant effects on fat deposition traits in this study.

  • In this thesis, a method of generating an adaptable Region-Of-Interest(ROI) Mask for the Region-Of-Interest coding is suggested. In the method, an ROI Mask is generated using the information of the ROI designated by a user. In the existed method of ROI coding, after scanning all the pixels in order and discriminating an ROI, an ROI Mask is generated. But, in our method, after scanning a part of pixels based on the shape pattern of an ROI and discriminating a ROI by one code block unit, an ROI Mask is generated. Moreover, from the method, a pattern number, threshold of a ROI and background threshold parameter are provided. According to the result of its comparing test with the existed methods to show the usability, it is proved that our method is superior in speed to the existed ones.

  • Genetic determinant for the secondary metabolism was studied in heterologous expression in Streptomyces lividans TK-24 using Streptomyces griseus ATCC 10137 as a donor strain. Chromosomal DNA of S. griseus was ligated into the high-copy number Streptomyces shuttle plasmid, pWHM3, and introduced into S. lividans TK-24. A plasmid clone with 4.3-kb BamHI DNA of S. griseus (pMJJ201) was isolated by detecting for stimulatory effect on actinorhodin production by visual inspection. The 4.3-kb BamHI DNA was cloned into pWHM3 under the control of the strong constitutive ermEp promoter in both directions (pMJJ202); ermEp promoter-mediated transcription for coding sequence reading right to left: pMJJ203; ermEp promoter-mediated transcription for coding sequence reading left to right) and reintroduced into S. lividans TK-24. The production of actinorhodin was markedly stimulated due to introduction of pMJJ202 on regeneration agar. The introduction of pMJJ202 also stimulated production of actinorhodin and undecylproidigiosin in submerged culture employing the actinorhodin production medium. Introduction of pMJJ203 resulted in a marked decrease of production of the two pigments. Nucleotide sequence analysis of the 4.3-kb region revealed three coding sequences: two coding sequences reading left to right, ORF1 and ORF2, one coding sequence reading right to left, ORF3. Therefore, it was suggested that the ORF3 product was responsible for the stimulation of antibiotic production. The C-terminal region of ORF3 product showed a local alignment with Myb-related transcriptional factors, which implicated that the ORF3 product might be a novel DNA-binding protein related to the regulation of secondary metabolism in Streptomyces.

  • Space domain image coding with VQ [9, 10, 11] has been very effective at low rates. To achieve quality at lower rates, it is necessary to exploit spaial redundancy over a larger region of pixels than is possible with general VQ. This paper presents a interframe coding algorithm which is capable of obtaining better performance and lower bi t rate than those of the general interframe coding. The performance is evaluated on the basis of SNR (Signal to Noise Ratio), memory requirements and bit rate.

  • With the increasing use of multimedia technologies, image compression requires higher performance as well as new features such as embedded Tossy to lossless coding, various progressive order, error resilience and region-of-interest coding. In the specific area of still image encoding, a new standard, the JPEG2000, has been currently developed. This paper presents a new compression scheme based on JPEG2000. In the proposed scheme, gray coding is applied to the wavelet coefficient. Since gray coding produces an image whose bit plane is will clustered. The proposed method improves compression efficiency of the JPEG2000.

  • A three dimensional fractal coding with a perceptually enhanced matching is proposed. Since most of medical images (e.g. computed tomography or magnetic resonance image) have three dimensional character, the searching region is extended to adjacent slices. For perceptually enhanced matching, a high frequency booster filter is used for prefiltering of the original image, and the least mean square error matching is applied to this edge enhanced image rather than the original image. From the simulation with the magnetic resonance images ($255{\times}255$, 8bits/pixel). the proposed algorithm provides excellent image quality with compression rations higher than 10. Compared to existing fractal coding the algorithm also provides better subjective image quality with higher compression ratio.
