In order to find potent virus-cell fusion inhibitory components from Korean edible clams, thirteen prepared polysaccharides were introduced to syncytia formation inhibition assay, which is based on the interaction between the HIV-1 envelope protein gp 120/41 and the cellular membutane protein CD4 of T lymphocytes. Among them, Meretrix petechialis showed a potent viruscell fusion inhibitory activity. Fusion index (F1) and percent (%) fusion inhibition of the polysaccharide of this clam were $0.21{\pm}0.02$, and $67.52{\pm}4.09$ at 100781m1, respectively. It exhibited almost equivalent virus-cell fusion inhibitory activity to that of dextran sulfate which was used as a standard control.

This paper is concerned with distributed fusion moving average prediction for continuous-time linear stochastic systems with multiple sensors. A distributed fusion with the weighted sum structure is applied to the optimal local moving average predictors. The distributed fusion prediction algorithm represents the optimal linear fusion by weighting matrices under the minimum mean square criterion. The derivation of equations for error cross-covariances between the local predictors is the key of this paper. Example demonstrates effectiveness of the distributed fusion moving average predictor.

Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS), which is associated with an extensive range of clinical and radiological presentations, is the one of the most challenging spinal disorders. The goals of surgery are to correct the deformity in 3 dimensions and to preserve motion segments while avoiding complications. Despite the ongoing evolution of classification systems and algorithms for the surgical treatment of AIS, there has been considerable debate regarding the selection of an appropriate fusion level in AIS. In addition, there is no consensus regarding the exact description, relationship, and risk factors of coronal decompensation following selective fusion. In this review, we summarize the current concepts of selection of the fusion level for AIS and review the available information about postoperative coronal decompensation.

In this paper, a novel hybrid method for multi-focus image fusion is proposed. The method combines the advantages of wavelet transform-based methods and focus-measure-based methods to achieve an improved fusion result. The input images are first decomposed into different frequency sub-bands using the discrete wavelet transform (DWT). The focus measure of each sub-band is then calculated using the Laplacian of Gaussian (LoG) operator, and the sub-band with the highest focus measure is selected as the focused sub-band. The focused sub-band is sharpened using an unsharp masking filter to preserve the details in the focused part of the image.Finally, the sharpened focused sub-bands from all input images are fused using the maximum intensity fusion method to preserve the important information from all focus images. The proposed method has been evaluated using standard multi focus image fusion datasets and has shown promising results compared to existing methods.

For frequency improvement of protoplast fusion in Brevibacterium flavum, Brevibacterium lactofermentum lactofermentum and Corynebacterium glutamicum, the effect of plasma expanders on fusion and cell wall regeneration, compatison between direct and two-step selection method, tendency of fusion frequency according to pH of fusion fluid and polyethylene glycol concentration were examined. By addition of 3% polyvinyl pyrrolidone to cell wall regeneration medium, regeneration frequencies were expressed 23 (Brevibacterium lactofermentum), 10.4 (Brevibacterium flavum) and 2.7 (Corynebacterium glutamicum) times higher than those of none polyvinyl pyrrolidone medium respectively.

This paper discusses various algorithms to the fusion of multi-spectral image. These fusion techniques have a wide variety of applications that range from hospital pathology to battlefield management. Different algorithms in each fusion level, namely data, feature, and decision are compared. The PCT-Based algorithm, which has the characteristic of data compression, is described. The algorithm is experimented on a foliated aerial scene and the fusion result is presented.
