In quantum computing, the use of Pauli frames through software traces of classical computers improves computation efficiency. In previous studies, error correction and Pauli operation tracking have been performed simultaneously using integrated Pauli frames in the physical layer. In such a complex processing structure, the number of simultaneous operations processed in the physical layer exponentially increases as the distance of the surface code encoding logical qubit increases. This study proposes a Pauli frame management architecture partitioned into two layers for a lattice surgery-based surface code and describes its structure and operation rules. To evaluate the effectiveness of our method, we generated a random circuit according to the gate ratios constituting the commonly known quantum circuits and compared the generated circuit with the existing Pauli frame and our method. Simulations show a decrease of about 5% over traditional methods. In the case of experiments that only increase the code distance of the logical qubit, it can be seen that the effect of reducing the physical operation through the logical Pauli frame becomes more important.

Purpose: Various studies have investigated 3-dimensional (3D)-printed implants using Ti6Al-4V powder; however, multi-root 3D-printed implants have not been fully investigated. The purpose of this study was to explore the stability of multirooted 3D-printed implants with lattice and solid structures. The secondary outcomes were comparisons between the 2 types of 3D-printed implants in micro-computed tomographic and histological analyses. Methods: Lattice- and solid-type 3D-printed implants for the left and right mandibular third premolars in beagle dogs were fabricated. Four implants in each group were placed immediately following tooth extraction. Implant stability measurement and periapical X-rays were performed every 2 weeks for 12 weeks. Peri-implant bone volume/tissue volume (BV/TV) and bone mineral density (BMD) were measured by micro-computed tomography. Bone-to-implant contact (BIC) and bone area fraction occupancy (BAFO) were measured in histomorphometric analyses. Results: All 4 lattice-type 3D-printed implants survived. Three solid-type 3D-printed implants were removed before the planned sacrifice date due to implant mobility. A slight, gradual increase in implant stability values from implant surgery to 4 weeks after surgery was observed in the lattice-type 3D-printed implants. The marginal bone change of the surviving solid-type 3D-printed implant was approximately 5 mm, whereas the value was approximately 2 mm in the lattice-type 3D-printed implants. BV/TV and BMD in the lattice type 3D-printed implants were similar to those in the surviving solid-type implant. However, BIC and BAFO were lower in the surviving solid-type 3D-printed implant than in the lattice-type 3D-printed implants. Conclusions: Within the limits of this preclinical study, 3D-printed implants of double-rooted teeth showed high primary stability. However, 3D-printed implants with interlocking structures such as lattices might provide high secondary stability and successful osseointegration.

An experimental study was performed for the preparation of living skin-equivalent by the using collagen gel contraction with human fibroblasts as neodermls and cultured human keratinocytes as neoderm is . The results were as follows ; 1) The rate of collagen gel contraction was dependent on the number of fibroblasts into the lattice and collagen contraction was progressed according to the increment of the number of the cells. 2) The rate of collagen gel contraction was progressed according to the decrement of the contraction of the collagen. 3) The rate of gel contraction was progressed according to the increment of serum concentration in the fixed concentration of the fibroblasts and collagen. 4) The lattice contraction was decreased according to the increment of the population doublings of the fibroblasts. 5) Macroscopically, the artificial dermis was gray white in color and tissue-like consistency and elas- ticity. 6) Microscopically, three dimensionally contracted artificial dermis showed more dense fibroblasts and its newly formed collagen fibrils in the matrix than one dimensionally contracted one. 7) Finally prepared skin-equivalent showed good attachment of living stratified keratinocytes to the dermal equivalent microscopically. It has been proposed that newly formed skin-equivalent is suitable for the graft of extensively and deeply burned patients. Shortening of the manufacturing period of skin-equivalent and development of conservation technique as a readily usable state are to be solved for our ongoing works.

In this paper, the fluid dynamic forces and performances of a moving airfoil in the low Reynolds number flow is addressed. In order to simulate the necessary propulsive force for the moving airfoil in a low Reynolds number flow, a lattice-Boltzmann method is used. The critical Reynolds and Strouhal numbers for the thrust generation are investigated for the four propulsion types. It was found that the Normal P&D type produces the largest thrust with the highest efficiency among the investigated types. The leading edge of the airfoil has an effect of deciding the force production types, whereas the trailing edge of the airfoil plays an important role in augmenting or reducing the instability produced by the leading edge oscillation. It is believed that present results can be used to decide the optimal propulsion types for the given Reynolds number flow.

본 논문에서는 가상성형 시스템에 적합한 Radial Basis Function(RBF) 기반의 변형 기법과 변형된 얼굴 구성 요소를 얼굴 영상에 혼합하는 기법을 제시한다. 가상성형을 위한 변형 기법은 유동적인 얼굴 구성 요소들을 변형함에 있어 부드러움과 정확성을 가져야 하고 변형 부위 이외의 다른 얼굴 구성 요소에는 왜곡을 주지 않는 지역성도 가져야 한다. 이를 위해 제안된 가상성형 시스템은 자유형태 변형 모델을 기반으로 RBF에 의해 격자들의 변형 정도를 계산한다. 성형의 정확성을 위해 변형 오차는 기준곡선 정점들의 목표 위치와 실제 변형된 위치 사이의 오차제곱합을 이용하여 Singular Value Decomposition(SVD)에 의해 반복적으로 RBF 매핑 함수의 계수들을 계산하여 보정한다. 변형된 얼굴 구성 요소는 Euclidean Distance Transform(EDT)에 의해 계산된 혼합 비율을 사용하여 원본 얼굴 영상과 합성된다. 제안된 변형 기법과 합성 기법은 가상성형 결과의 정확도와 왜곡 측면에서 우수한 성능을 보인다는 것을 실험적으로 확인하였다.

Fault-tolerant quantum computation requires error-correcting codes that enable reliable universal quantum operations. This study introduces a novel approach that executes the logical Hadamard with low-space requirements while preserving the original definition of logical operators within the framework of the rotated surface codes. Our method leverages a boundary deformation method to rotate the logical qubit transformed by transversal Hadamard. Following this, the original encoding of the logical qubit is reinstated through logical flipand-shift operations. The estimated space-time cost for a logical Hadamard operation with a code distance d is 5d² + 3d² . The efficiency enhancement of the proposed method is approximately four times greater than those of previous approaches, regardless of the code distance. Unlike the traditional method, implementing a logical Hadamard requires only two patches instead of seven. Furthermore, the proposed method ensures the parallelism of quantum circuits by preventing interferences between adjacent logical data qubits.
