This study was conducted to optimize roasting process of Job's tears for utilization as food Optimal condition for masting was investigated with changes in temperature and time by response surface methodology. The qualities of water extract such as browning degree, polyphenol and DPPH radical scavenging ability were affected more by roasting temperature than time. The values increased with temperature and time proportionally. The response variables were more significant with temperature than time and the established polynomial model was suitable (P>0.05) model by Lack-of-Fit analysis. Optimal roasting conditions with the limit of $0.2{\sim}0.3$ browning degree, $2.0{\sim}2.5{\mu}g/mL$ polyphenol, $30{\sim}40%$ scavenging ability and $0{\sim}100$ hue angle were $215^{\circ}C$ and 32 min.

In a ${\Lambda}CDM$ universe, galaxies are believed to evolve by mergers and accretions. The debris resulting from such processes remains as diffuse, low-surface brightness structures, such as outer disks, stellar halos, and faint companions. These structures will give us fruitful insight into the recent mass assembly history of galaxies, but it is challenging to observe them due to their low surface brightness. In order to explore the structural properties of outskirts of nearby galaxies, we conduct deep wide-field imaging survey with KMTNet. Here we present a progress report of data reduction for the images of NGC 1291, a lenticular barred galaxy with outer rings. To achieve accurate flat fielding, we use dark sky flat and remove the sky gradient of each exposure with a polynomial fit. As a result, we are able to reach 1 sigma depth of ${\mu}_R{\sim}29.6\;mag\;arcsec^{-2}$. We expect to investigate the surface brightness profile of NGC 1291 in 1-D profile, and color-gradient in the outer part of the galaxy using the B- and R-band images.

Outsourcing jobs to a public cloud is a cost-effective way to address the problem of satisfying the peak resource demand when the local cloud has insufficient resources. In this paper, we studied the management of deadline-constrained bag-of-tasks jobs on hybrid clouds. We presented a binary nonlinear programming (BNP) problem to model the hybrid cloud management which minimizes rent cost from the public cloud while completes the jobs within their respective deadlines. To solve this BNP problem in polynomial time, we proposed a heuristic algorithm. The main idea is assigning the task closest to its deadline to current core until the core cannot finish any task within its deadline. When there is no available core, the algorithm adds an available physical machine (PM) with most capacity or rents a new virtual machine (VM) with highest cost-performance ratio. As there may be a workload imbalance between/among cores on a PM/VM after task assigning, we propose a task reassigning algorithm to balance them. Extensive experimental results show that our heuristic algorithm saves 16.2%-76% rent cost and improves 47.3%-182.8% resource utilizations satisfying deadline constraints, compared with first fit decreasing algorithm, and that our task reassigning algorithm improves the makespan of tasks up to 47.6%.

This study was conducted to optimize hot water extraction process of cordyceps militaris for development beverage. Optimal condition for hot water extraction was investigated with changes in extraction concentration and temperature by response surface methodology. The content of soluble solid was effected with concentration. The efficiency of extraction for turbidity, total sugar, reducing sugar and protein increased with low concentration. The response variables had significant with concentration and the established polynomial model was suitable (p>0.05) model by lack-of-fit analysis. Optimal extraction conditions as the limited renditions of 2.0∼2.4% extractable solids, 1.5∼2.0% brix, l14∼120 $\mu\textrm{g}$/g total sugar, 10.5∼11.0 $\mu\textrm{g}$/ｇ reducing sugar and 110∼l15 $\mu\textrm{g}$/g protein were 95∼100$\^{C}$ and 4.0∼4.1% of concentration.

This study was conducted to the optimize salting process of eggplant for development new product and enhancement quality for export. Three variables by five level central composite design and response surface methodology were used to determine optimum conditions for salting time, temperature and salt concentration. Optimization of the process was conducted using the combination of the moisture content, salinity and color of surface and inside of salted eggplant. The regression polynomial model was suitable (P>0.05) by Lack-of-Fit analysis with highly significant. To optimize the process, based on surface response and contour plots, the individual contour plots of the response variables were superimposed. The optimum conditions for this process were 6 days and 15$^{\circ}C$ at 30％ concentration under the optimum of restricted variables as moisture content was below 84％, salinity was below 14％, L and b value of surface were 10 to 20 and below 0, L value and b value of inside were 70 to 75 and 16 to 18.

In this paper, we study a polynomially solvable case of the inverse interval graph coloring problem. Given an interval graph associated with a specific interval system, the inverse interval graph coloring problem is defined with the assumption that there is no proper K-coloring for the given interval graph, where K is a fixed integer. The problem is to modify the system of intervals associated with the given interval graph by shifting some of the intervals in such a way that the resulting interval graph becomes K-colorable and the total modification is minimum with respect to a certain norm. In this paper, we focus on the case K = 1 where all intervals associated with the interval graph have length 1 or 2, and interval displacement is only allowed to the righthand side with respect to its original position. To solve this problem in polynomial time, we propose a two-phase algorithm which consists of the sorting and First Fit procedure.

This research was motivated by our encounter with the situation where an optimization was done based on statistically non-significant models having poor fits. Such a situation took place in a research to optimize manufacturing conditions for improving storage stability of coffee-supplemented milk beverage by using response surface methodology, where two responses are $Y_1$=particle size and $Y_2$=zeta-potential, two factors are $F_1$=speed of primary homogenization (rpm) and $F_2$=concentration of emulsifier (%), and the optimization objective is to simultaneously minimize $Y_1$ and maximize $Y_2$. For response surface analysis, practically, the second-order polynomial model is almost solely used. But, there exists the cases in which the second-order model fails to provide a good fit, to which remedies are seldom known to researchers. Thus, as an alternative to a failed second-order model, we present the heterogeneous third-order model, which can be used when the experimental plan is a two-factor central composite design having -1, 0, and 1 as the coded levels of factors. And, for multi-response optimization, we suggest a modified desirability function technique. Using these two methods, we have obtained statistical models with improved fits and multi-response optimization results with the predictions better than those in the previous research. Our predicted optimum combination of conditions is ($F_1$, $F_2$)=(5,000, 0.295), which is different from the previous combination. This research is expected to help improve the quality of response surface analysis in experimental sciences including food science of animal resources.

The shape of a dendrite tip has long been approximated by a paraboloid of revolution, but many attempts have been made as well to more accurately match the dendrite tip profile using other mathematical functions: power function, 4th order polynomial, and hyperbolic function. In the present work, dendrite tip shapes were matched by parabolic function. The differences between the dendrite tip shapes of pivalic acid(PVA)-ethanol(Eth) and succinonitrile(SCN)-salol systems, characterized by anisotropic and isotropic solid-liquid interfacial properties, respectively, were quantitatively treated using shape parameters. The PVA-Eth system showed a slightly higher Z/R value than the SCN-salol system, their Z/R values lying in the range 2-4. (Z is the distance from the tip beyond which the parabolic fit starts to deviate from the profile, and R the tip radius.) ${\lambda}_P$ is the distance from the tip beyond which side branching starts to appear, and is larger in the PVA-Eth system than the SCNsalol system. ${\lambda}_P$ is different for both sides of the 2-dimensional dendrite profile. The difference of ${\lambda}_P$ between both sides of the dendrite is larger for PVA-Eth system than for SCN-salol, implying that the dendrite of PVA-Eth is less symmetric than that of SCN-salol.

This paper presents a procedure to extract lane line models using a set of proposed methods. Firstly, an image warping method based on homography is proposed to transform a target image into an image which is efficient to find lane pixels within a certain region in the image. Secondly, a method to use the combination of the results of edge detection and HSL (Hue, Saturation, and Lightness) transform is proposed to detect lane candidate pixels with reliability. Thirdly, erroneous candidate lane pixels are eliminated using a selection area method. Fourthly, a method to fit lane pixels to quadratic polynomials is proposed. In order to test the validity of the proposed procedure, a set of black-box images captured under varying illumination and noise conditions were used. The experimental results show that the proposed procedure could overcome the problems of color-only and edge-only based methods and extract lane pixels and model the lane line geometry effectively within less than 0.6 seconds per frame under a low-cost computing environment.
