For the disadvantages of multi-scale geometric analysis methods such as loss of definition and complex selection of rules in image fusion, an improved multi-focus image fusion method is proposed. First, the initial fused image is quickly obtained based on the lifting stationary wavelet transform, and a simple normalized cut is performed on the initial fused image to obtain different segmented regions. Then, the original image is subjected to NSCT transformation and the absolute value of the high frequency component coefficient in each segmented region is calculated. At last, the region with the largest absolute value is selected as the postfusion region, and the fused multi-focus image is obtained by traversing each segment region. Numerical experiments show that the proposed algorithm can not only simplify the selection of fusion rules, but also overcome loss of definition and has validity.

The mullite-zirconia composites were prepared by the pressureless sintering with addition of 10~20 vol% ZrO$_2$(TZ3Y) in the fused mullite and sol-gel mullite matrix. The densification rate of sol-gel mullite was higher than that of fused mullite, and the addition of ZrO$_2$(TZ3Y) was effective on the densification of fused mullite. The enhancement of densification and anisotropic growth of mullite in ZrO$_2$added specimen can be explained by the solid solution effect of $Zr^{+4}$ ion in mullite. Both mechanical strength and fracture toughness of mullite-zirconia composite were enhanced compared to those of mullite. The enhancement of mechanical properties is attributed to the hinderance of grain growth and the combined toughening effects of tetra-mono phase transformation and crack deflection due to the residual stress between mullite/ZrO$_2$.

Fused deposition modelling(FDM) is a rapid prototyping(RP) process that fabricates part layer by layer by deposition of molten thermoplastic material extrude from a nozzle. RP system has many benefit. One of the benefit would be the ability to experiment wiか physical objects of my complexity in a relatively short period of time. But it has a matter of surface roughness and geometric accuracy. We study on Influence of angle of tangent line and area error on sphere surface roughness at fused deposition.

Whole column coldtrapping(WCC) on a fused silica capillary (FSCC)combined with GC/MS analysis was evaluated for use in the investigation of volatile organic compounds(VOCs) in indoor air. Research had indicated that a temperature of $-80^{\circ}C$ is optimal for WCC. Samples were analyzed on a $50m{\times}0.2mm$ cross-linked 5% phenylmethylsilicone fused silica column. Liquid nitrogen was used as the coolant for the peak resolution significantly. The analysis can be performed quickly and conveniently. More than 112 of VOCs were determined in the samples from three typical indoor environment including: (1) a room which had just been decorated involving building materials and paints; (2)a kitchen used for Chinese cooking, and (3) a room had tobacco smoke. The method is could be readily applied to rapid sample screening for VOCs contamination surveys or initial investigations with its valid and simple sampling and analytical technique.

An iron-storage protein, ferritin is a spherical shell consisting of 24 H-and L-chain subunits. Soluble form of fused($F_{H}+F_{L}$ chain) ferritin was separated from disrupted recombinant E. coii cells, followed by silica powder adsorption. Ferritin was recovered from silica-poweder by distilled water, which was applied to gel filtration chromatography(GFC). Collected ferritin fractions from the GFC were assayed via iron-uptake and its molecular weight determined using GF-HPLC. Fused ferritin showed a higher activity than the M- or L- chain ferritin by two times.

To compare the castability of various alloys popularly used in Korea for porcelain-fused-to-metal restorations, author selected Degudent G as precious alloy, J.P. 92 as semiprecious alloy and Vera Bond, Rexillium III, Unit Bond, Fine Bond as non precious alloys. With nylon lines and gauge waxes, author made the wax patterns for the castability comparison test. In the same conditions, wax patterns were invested, burned out and cast. Author obtained the following results from this study. 1. The castability of Degudent G as precious alloy for porcelain-fused-to-metal crown and bridge was the best of all. 2. The castability of nonprecious alloys was less than Degudent G as precious alloy, but their differences were not large. 3. The castability of Rexillium III is the best of all nonprecious alloys and that of Vera Bond, Unit Bond had nearly the same results. 4. Semiprecious alloy (J.P. 92) was less castable than nonprecious alloys.

Chloramphenicol acetyl CoA transferase (CAT) and angiotensin- converting enzyme inhibitory peptide (ACEI) were fused to C-terminal region of rice ubiquitin to examine the level of transcripts or enzyme activities in yeast. When two chimeric genes under an inducible Gall promoter control were transformed into Saccharomyces cerevisaie, both CAT and ACE inhibitory activities were enhanced by three to four-fold as compared to those containing no ubiquitin gene. However, the levels of transcripts of ubiquitin fused and un fused genes were not significantly different each other. Therefore, it was suggested that the expression of foreign genes was post-transcriptionally enhanced by fusion of plant ubiquitin in heterologous organisms such as yeast.

Using the principle of the cross capacitor, a precise system for measuring the electric constants of liquids has been developed. The four electrodes of the cross capacitor were formed around fused-silica tube by plating a gold film. The effect of a non-uniform tube wall ok the measured permittivity was investigated As the individual characteristics of the tubes were determined to be constant, the pure dielectric constants extracted from any effect of the fused-silica material could be precisely derived with uncertainty of less than ${\pm}$ 0.02∼0.05 %.

Fusion and gemination are developmental anomalies of teeth that may require endodontic treatment. Fusion may cause various clinical problems related to esthetics, tooth spacing, and other periodontal complications. Additional diagnostic tools are required for the diagnosis and the treatment planning of fused tooth. The present case report describes a case of unilateral fusion of a supernumerary root to an upper permanent central incisor with large periapical lesion in which a conservative approach was used without extraction of supernumerary tooth and obturated with mineral trioxide aggregate to reach a favorable outcome.

A regression with multi-dimensional responses is quite common nowadays in the so-called big data era. In such regression, to relieve the curse of dimension due to high-dimension of responses, the dimension reduction of predictors is essential in analysis. Sufficient dimension reduction provides effective tools for the reduction, but there are few sufficient dimension reduction methodologies for multivariate regression. To fill this gap, we newly propose two fused slice-based inverse regression methods. The proposed approaches are robust to the numbers of clusters or slices and improve the estimation results over existing methods by fusing many kernel matrices. Numerical studies are presented and are compared with existing methods. Real data analysis confirms practical usefulness of the proposed methods.
