Published data of the efficiency of CR-39 detectors as a function of neutron energy from different laboratories show wide variations in the response obtained. These variations result from differences in etching conditions, in the materials and thickness of the radiator, in the sensitivities of CR-39 from different manufacturers and perhaps in criteria used for the size of spots that are counted. This paper describes some effects of these factors on the energy and angular response with calculational results. Calculated and measured results of the variations of response with neutron incident angie are more consistent than those of energy response. The data calculated show that the angular response is not a strong function of neutron energy except below about 0.3 MeV.

As computer related technologies are developed, interests in augmented reality technologies are greatly increasing. Augmented reality is a technology that composes digital contents from the real input images through camera and it enables interaction with users. This study designed a directional marker using LED light that emits infrared ray, then, provided a detection algorithm and a marker information extraction method that can realize various virtual objects as augmented reality from one marker. The newly designed method provides a solution to settle the problems in existing marker technologies such as decrease of immersiveness and read rate and single information expression, and at the same time it can minimize the cost or time consumption in marker information storage.

The panorama is a good alternative to overcome narrow FOV under study in robot vision, stereo camera and panorama image registration and modeling. The panorama can materialize view with angles wider than human view and provide realistic space which make feeling of being on the scene based on realism. If we use all correspondence, it is too difficult to find strong features and correspondences and assume accurate homography matrix in geographic changes in images as load of calculation increases. Accordingly, we used SURF algorithm to estimate overlapping areas with high similarity by comparing and analyzing the input images' histograms and to detect features. And we solved the problem of input order so we can make panorama by input images without order.

최근까지의 교통사고 통계에 따르면 주간 보다는 야간에 더 많은 사고가 발생하며, 사고 원인 중 하나는 부적절한 조명 시설로 인한 시야 미확보, 눈의 피로감 증가가 중요한 요소이다. 본 논문에서는 스마트폰 기반으로 야간 도로 밝기 측정 어플리케이션을 구현하여 야간에 부적절한 조명 시설이 설치된 지점을 파악하기 위해서 위치 정보와 밝기 정보, 이동 방향 정보를 실시간으로 데이터베이스에 저장하여 모니터링해주는 시스템을 설계 및 구현하였다. 이를 위해, 안드로이드 NDK을 이용하여 Native 환경에서 차선 검출 및 RGB 색 공간의 값을 휘도 값으로 변환 알고리즘을 작성하였다. 또한 스마트폰의 카메라를 이용하여 실시간으로 도로 영상을 입력 받은 후 ROI 설정 하여 연산 속도를 향상시켰고, 차선 검출을 통해 차선 사이의 도로 밝기 정보를 획득하고 GPS 센서를 이용하여 이동 방향 정보와 위치 정보를 획득하여 데이터베이스에 저장하였다. 어플리케이션 사용자들의 주행 정보를 바탕으로 도로 밝기 값 데이터베이스를 활용하여 눈부심 및 조명관련 사고 위험 구간을 자동으로 알려주는 후속 연구를 진행할 수 있을 것으로 기대한다.

The effects of glucono delta-lactone on the Quality of cooked rice were investigated. Cooked rice was prepared with the addition of acetic acid (AA) and glucono delta-lactone (GDL). Microbial population and textural properties were determinated during the storage periods at 3$0^{\circ}C$. The addition of AA and GDL above 0.1% was effective in the inhibition of bacterial growth for 72 hrs at 3$0^{\circ}C$. Lightness increased by addition of AA and GDL, but yellowness decreased. Hardness was significantly increased by adding AA and GDL, and also stickiness decreased by adding AA. Whereas, stickiness of cooked rice adding GDL increased significantly as the content of GDL increased. The present results confirmed that GDL was a useful food additive to extend the shelf-life and improve the Quality of cooked rice.

A method for the simultaneous analysis of 31 residual organic chloride pesticides was studied using gas chromatography. Prepared analytical samples were injected to gas chromatography (HP 5890 Series II plus) on the Ultra-2 column with ECD. The packing materials for column were changed as the following reagents ; florisil and alumina N, The residual solution was loaded to column and was elected pith erection solvents ; ether : benzene (2 : 8) solution, hexane : benzene (1 : 1) solution, dichloromethane, acetone, and methanol. The analytical results showed that 6 kinds of organic chlorides were not detected when florisil (first condition) was used as the column packing material. The nondetected 6 kinds of organic chlorides in the first analytical condition were detected and the recoveries of thrin-pesticides were increased, in particular, captan and captafol, but the recoveries of benzene hexachloride compounds were decreased when dichloromethane and methanol were added as elution solvents (pac'king material was florisil as in the first condition). The recoveries of dichlornuanid, chlorofenvinfos, folpet, and dicofol were increased and that of aldrin was increased, but those of captan and captafol were not good when alumina N was used as the packing material. To detect simultaneously thrin-pesticides, captan, and captafol, florisil and alumina N were used as the packing materials. The elution result showed that captan and captafol were not detected. This was because the column was activated insufficiently. The analytical method was the best (31 kinds of organic chlorides in the residual pesticides were detected sharply and showed high sensitivity) when the column (packing materials were florisil and alumina N: together) was fuliy activated and the impurities were removed using various elution solvents.

An imaging plate(IP) detector, a two-dimensional digital radiation detector that can acquire image of radioactivity distribution in a sample, has been applied in many fields; for industrial radiography, medical diagnosis, X-ray diffraction test, etc. In this study, the possibility of IP detector to be used lot measuring radioactivity of sample is explored using its high sensitivity, higher spatial resolution, wider dynamic range and screen uniformity for several kinds radiations. First, the IP detector is applied to measure the surface uniformity for area source. Surface uniformity is measured rapidly and nondestructively by measuring the radioactivity distribution of common standard area source$(^{241}Am)$. Next, the IP is employed to study the possibility of measuring an extremely low-level activity of environmental sample. For this study the screen uniformity, shield effect of background radiation, linear dynamic range and fading effect of the IP detector is investigated. The potato, banana, radish and carrot samples are chosen to measure ultra low-level activity of $^{40}K$ isotope. The efficiency calibration of IP detector is carried out using the standard source.

Mandipropamid is a new mandelamide-type fungicide to control foliar Oomycete pathogens in some vegetables. An analytical method was developed to determine mandipropamid residues in agricultural commodities using high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry (LC/MS). Mandipropamid was extracted with methanol from grape, tomato, green pepper, Chinese cabbage and potato samples. The extract was diluted with saturated sodium chloride solution and distilled water, and dichloromethane partition was followed to recover the mandipropamid from the aqueous phase. Florisil column chromatography was employed to further remove interfering co-extractives prior to HPLC analysis. Reverse-phased HPLC was successfully applied to determine mandipropamid in sample extracts with the detection at its ${\lambda}_{max}$ (223 nm). Overall recoveries of mandipropamid from fortified samples averaged $99.8{\pm}1.7$ (n=6), $89.3{\pm}5.3$ (n=6), $98.7{\pm}2.2$ (n=6), $99.7{\pm}6.8$ (n=6) and $91.1{\pm}3.1$ (n=6) for grape, tomato, green pepper, Chinese cabbage and potato, respectively. Limit of quantification of the method was 0.02~0.04 mg/kg for all samples. A LC/mass spectrometry with selected-ion monitoring was also provided to confirm the suspected residue. The proposed method was reproducible and sensitive enough to determine the terminal residue of mandipropamid in agricultural commodities.

The objective of this study was to improve the detection limit of rapid detection kit for Salmonella Typhimurium by image analysis system. The rapid detection kit was comprised of four elements: sample pad, conjugate pad, nitrocellulose pad and absorbent pad. Gold nanoparticle and Salmonella antibody were used as a tag and a receptor. Salmonella antibody and goat rabbit IgG antibody were used as test and control lines on nitrocellulose membrane. The color intensity of test line began to increase from $10^5CFU/mL$ of Salmonella sample. A multiple linear regression analysis was employed to explain the relationship between predicted and measured number of Salmonella cells. The developed model could successfully predict the cell number of Salmonella with validation against extra-experimental result.
