The polarization characteristics of nano-scale grating-assisted polarization-insensitive coupler (GA-PIC) consisted of double sandwiched rib-type layers are evaluated in detail by using modal transmission-line theory (MTLT) based on equivalent network. To obtain the polarization-insensitive condition of GA-PIC, the coupling lengths as a function of the refractive index and thickness of sandwiched rib-type layer as well as the grating thickness and period are analyzed for quasi-TE and quasi-TM modes. The numerical results show that the GA-PIC with hundreds of nanometer scale is realized by properly choosing structural and material parameters of double sandwiched layers and grating.

Hyaluronic acid (HA) is a natural glycosaminoglycan and is used widely in the pharmaceutical field. Lipoic acid (LA) helps the regeneration of exogenous and endogenous antioxidants such as Vitamin C and Vitamin E as well as glutathione. It also acts as antioxidant indirectly. Hydrophilic HA as a biodegradable and biocompatible polymer was conjugated with hydrophobic LA as an antioxidant to form the graft copolymer. The carboxyl group of HA was modified by adipic acid dihydrazide (ADH). The synthesis of HA-g-LA graft copolymers was characterized by FT-IR, $^1H$-NMR spectroscopy. The conjugates could form the self-assembled nanoparticles in aqueous solution. The particle size and critical aggregation concentration were verified to use the nanoparticle as a carrier fur the hydrophobic material.

The optical characteristics and power transfers between guiding channels of blazed grating-assisted directional coupler (B-GADC) are evaluated in detail by using novel and rigorous modal transmission-line theory (MTLT) based on eigenvalue problem. To evaluate the coupling efficiency of B-GADC, the dispersion curves as a function of the grating period and wavelength are analyzed numerically for quasi-TE and quasi-TM modes. Furthermore, symmetric, sawtooth and asymmetric grating profiles are considered to know the effect of blazing characteristics on power transfer of GADC. The numerical results show that the grating period for minimum-gap condition to obtain maximum power transfer decreases gradually as the blazed structure changes from symmetric to asymmetric profile. On the other hand, the coupling length increases reversely.

The study was focused to evaluate the possibility for combination membrane of bacterial cellulose (BC) and graphene with high electrical properties. BC with natural polymer matrix was known to have strong physical strength. For the combination of graphene with BC, the surface of graphene was modified with oxygen plasma by changing strength and time of radio waves in room temperature. Water contact angle of modified graphene grew smaller from $130^{\circ}$ to $12^{\circ}$. XPS analysis showed that oxygen content after treatment increased from 2.99 to 10.98%. Damage degree of graphene was examined from $I_D/I_G$ ratio of Raman analysis. $I_D/I_G$ ratio of non-treated graphene (NTG) was 0.11, and 0.36 to 0.43 in plasma treated graphene (PTG), increasing structural defects of PTG. XRD analysis of PTG membrane with BC was $2{\theta}$ same to BC only, indicating chemically combined membrane. In FT-IR analysis, 1,000 to 1,300 $cm^{-1}$ (C=O) peak indicating oxygen radicals in PTG membrane had formed was larger than NTG membrane. The results suggest that BC as an alternation of plastic material for graphene combination has a possibility in some degree on the part like transparent conductive films.

Districting is a spatial decision making process to make a new regional framework for affecting human activities. Natural barriers such as rivers and mountains located within a reorganized district may reduce the efficiency of reorganized human activities. This implies that it is necessary to consider boundary characteristics in a districting process. The purpose of this research is to develop a new spatial optimization model based on boundary characteristics for districting problems. The boundary characteristics are evaluated as continuous value expressing the possibility of combining adjacent two basic spatial units rather than a dichotomous value with 1 or 0 and are defined as an objective function in the model. In addition, the model has explicitly formulated contiguity constraints as well as constraints enforcing demand balance among districts such as population and area. The boundary attributes are categorized into physical and relational characteristics. Suitability analysis is used to combine various variables related to each boundary characteristic and to evaluate the coupling possibility between two neighboring basic units. The model is applied to an administrative redistricting problem. The analytical results demonstrate that various boundary characteristics could be modeled in terms of mixed integer programming (MIP).

Underwater communication performance is degraded by the influence of Inter-Symbol Interference (ISI) due to multipath. Passive time reversal processing is the most effective technique for mitigating multipath, and the diversity combining method can be used to improve its performance. This paper analyzed communication performance using the beam diversity combining method, which combines signals obtained through the beam steering to various angles. Directions of arrival were estimated through the beam-time migration, which, in turn, was estimated from probe signals received by a vertical line array. The performance was analyzed based on the number and type of combinations among the estimated angles. In this paper, the data obtained from the Biomimetic Long range Acoustic Communications 2018 (BLAC18) experiment, which was conducted in the East sea, ~50 km east of Pohang, in October 2018, were used for the analysis. The output Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR) was used as communication indicators.

Since the introduction of Deep Neural Networks to the Natural Language Processing field, two major approaches have been considered for modeling text. One method involved learning embeddings, i.e. the distributed representations containing abstract semantics of words or sentences, with the textual context. The other strategy consisted of composing the embeddings trained by the above to get embeddings of longer texts. However, most studies of the composition methods just adopt word embeddings without consideration of the optimal embedding unit and the optimal method of composition. In this paper, we conducted experiments to analyze the optimal embedding unit and the optimal composition method for modeling longer texts, such as documents. In addition, we suggest a new discourse-based composition to overcome the limitation of the sequential composition method on composing sentence embeddings.

In this paper, we analyze the outage probability of macro diversity combining in cellular networks in consideration of aggregate interference from other mobile stations (MSs). Different from existing works analyzing the outage probability of macro diversity combining, we focus on a diversity gain attained by selecting a base station (BS) subject to relatively low aggregate interference. In our model, MSs are randomly located according to a Poisson point process. The outage probability is analyzed by approximating the multivariate distribution of aggregate interferences on multiple BSs by a multivariate lognormal distribution.
