This paper proposes not only the thresholding problem which has been one of the major problems in the pre-existing edge detection method but also the removal of blurring effect occurred at the edge regions due to the smoothing process. The structure of a given image is assigned as one of the three predefined image structure classes by evaluating its toll membership value to each reference structure class:The structure of an image belongs to the structure class which has the least cost value with the image. Upon the structure class assigned, noise removal and edge extraction precesses are performed, e.g., the smoothing algorithm is applied to the image if its structure belongs to the pure noise region class; edge extraction while removing the noise is performed simultaneously if the edge structure class. The proposed method shows that preventing the blurring effect can be usually seen in the edge images and extracting the edges with no using thresholding value by the experiments.

Separable systems are defined in term rewriting systems, respecting the notion of separability in the λ-calculus. In this research, we generalize separable systems of term rewriting systems, which was studied in restrictive systems such as constructive systems. We also associate separability with index-transitivity and with forward branching Separability is identified with forward branching, and strong sequentiality with index-transitivity satisfies separability. These are such good properties that enable us to describe the procedure of pattern-matching as an index tree, which is a sort of automata, and to transform separable systems into a constructor system with a simple pattern. Separable systems, in particular, can be translated into the λ-calculus. This research can serve a theoretical basis which allows functional languages to be explained by the λ-calculus, since functional languages such as ML and Haskell belong to a subclass of separable systems.

In this paper, we propose a new face detection method for real-time applications. It is based on the template-matching and appearance-based method. At first, we apply Min-max normalization with histogram equalization to the input image according to the variation of intensity. By applying the PCA transform to both the input image and template, PC components are obtained and they are applied to the LDA transform. Then, we estimate the distances between the input image and template, and we select one region which has the smallest distance. SVM is used for final decision whether the candidate face region is a real face or not. Since we detect a face region not the full region but within the $\pm$12 search window, our method shows a good speed and detection rate. Through the experiments with 6 category input videos, our algorithm shows the better performance than the existing methods that use only the PCA transform. and the PCA and LDA transform.

In this paper, we prove mesh-like networks can be embedded into Petersen-Torus(PT) networks. Once interconnection network G is embedded in H, the parallel algorithm designed in Gcan be applied to interconnection network H. The torus is embedded into PT with dilation 5, link congestion 5 and expansion 1 using one-to-one embedding. The honeycomb mesh is embedded into PT with dilation 5, link congestion 2 and expansion 5/3 using one-to-one embedding. Additional, We derive average dilation. The embedding algorithm could be available in both wormhole routing system and store-and-forward routing system by embedding the generally known Torus and honeycomb mesh networks into PT at 5 or less of dilation and congestion, and the processor throughput could be minimized at simulation through one-to-one.

Wireless ad-hoc routing has been extensively studied and many clever schemes have been proposed over the last several years. One class of ad-hoc routing is geographic routing where each intermediate node independently selects the next hop using the given location information of destination. Geographic routing, which eliminates the overhead of route request packet flooding, is scalable and suitable for large scale ad hoc networks. However, geographic routing may select the long detour paths when there are voids between a source and a destination. In this paper, we propose a novel geographic routing approach called Geographic Landmark Routing(GLR). GLR recursively discovers the intermediate nodes called landmarks and constructs sub-paths that connect the subsequent landmarks. Simulation results on various network topologies show that GLR significantly improves the performance of geographic routing.

Confucian thought is a lot of influence on future generations. In addition to teaching human character accomplishments method, and many educational principles, and political Ideas. The particularly worthy of our attention, is guiding mankind to construct "optimistic attitude" to life. Roughly, Confucian recognized "heaven" is "the mother of all things" but also "given all natural instincts" and "determine the fate of mankind".At the same time, it is also root causes of the Confucian Thought. On the basis cognitive of "Heaven and human relations", Confucian to construct "Optimistic attitude" philosophy of life. First, Confucian teach peoples to understand that "the fate" is determined by "heaven". Then, all the people should follow Justice and truth to do their own thing real well. Finally, everyone should hold a good mood to face all results.This is the most wonderful life wisdom.

Various studies to enhance the accuracy of rice production forecasting are focused on improving the accuracy of the models. In contrast, there is a relative lack of research regarding the data itself, which the prediction models are applied to. When applying the same dependent variable and prediction model to two different sets of rice production data composed of distinct features, discrepancies in results can occur. It is challenging to determine which dataset yields superior results under such circumstances. To address this issue, by identifying potential influential features within the data before applying the prediction model and centering the modeling around these, it is possible to achieve stable prediction results regardless of the composition of the data. In this study, we propose a method to adjust the composition of the data's features in order to select optimal base variables, aiding in achieving stable and consistent predictions for rice production. This method makes use of the Korea Meteorological Administration's ASOS data. The findings of this study are expected to make a substantial contribution towards enhancing the utility of performance evaluations in future research endeavors.

The incidence of small and asymptomatic pancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms (PNENs) has been increased due to the widespread use of high-resolution imaging techniques and endoscopic procedures in screening programmes. Most of PNENs are indolent neoplasms with slow-growing. However, sometimes, PNENs show local invasion or metastasis with poor prognosis. The management of small, nonfunctioning PNENs remain under debate. The National Comprehensive Cancer Network guidelines recommend observation in selected cases of small PNENs less than 2 cm. Pancreatic surgeons are divided into two factions: "the hawks," who indicate the high risk of malignancy even in small PNENs and, therefore, the need for an aggressive surgical treatment, and the "the doves," who accepts the risk of malignancy in some ≤ 2 cm PNENs, advocate that the risk of overtreating many benign ≤ 2 cm PNENs would be much higher. As the pancreatic surgery remains a high-risk operation with a 28-30% morbidity and 1% mortality, the decision for small PNENs is challenging.

Purpose : Hyper IgM syndrome(HIGM) is characterized by severe recurrent bacterial infections with decreased serum levels of IgG, IgA, and IgE but elevated IgM levels. Recently, it has been classified into three groups; HIGM1, HIGM2 and a rare form of HIGM. HIGM1 is a X-linked form of HIGM and has now been identified as a T-cell deficiency in which mutations occur in the gene that encodes the CD40 ligand molecule. HIGM2 is an autosomal recessive form of HIGM. Molecular studies have shown that the mutation of HIGM2 is in the gene that encodes activation-induced cytidine deaminase(AID). Recently, another rare form of X-linked HIGM syndrome associated with hypohydrotic ectodermal dysplasia has been identified. We encountered a patient with a varient form of HIGM2. To clarify the cause of this form of HIGM, we evaluated the peripheral B cells of this patient. Methods : The lymphocytes of the patient were prepared from peripheral blood. B cells were immortalized with the infection of EBV. Cell cycle analysis was done with the immortalized B cells of the patient. Peripheral mononuclear cells were stained with monoclonal anti-CD40L antibody. Total RNA was extracted from the peripheral mononuclear cells. After RT-PCR, direct sequencing for CD40L gene and HuAID gene were done. Immunostainings of a lymph node for CD3, CD23, CD40, Fas-L, bcl-2, BAX were done. Results : The peripheral B cells of this patient showed normal expression of CD40L molecule and normal sequencing of CD40L gene, and also normal sequencing of AID gene. Interestingly, the peripheral B cells of this patient showed a decreased population of G2/mitosis phase in cell cycles which recovered to normal with the stimulation of IL-4. Conclusion : We suspect that the cause of increased serum IgM in this patient may be from a decrease of G2/mitosis phase of the peripheral B cells, which may be from the decreased production or secretion of IL-4. Therefore, this may be a new form of HIGM.

The purpose of this paper is to study logical status and meaning of '$l{\grave{e}}i$[類]' in integrated concept system of 'míng[名]'. The subordinate relationships and integrated systems between genus and species are made up 'míng[名]' in pre-Chin's logical arguments. And '$l{\grave{e}}i$[類]' is a concept that designate what kind of category in all names of sorts and kinds in early China. The logical argumentations of early Chinese philosophers reflect subordinate relationship and integrated system of 'míng[名]'. And then early Chinese philosophers use the 'míng[名]' in other to denote a general concept that totally indicate meanings of genus and species like as Confucius' '$zh{\grave{e}}ng$ míng[正名]'. However early Chinese philosophers make philosophical issues of correspondence between míng[名] and shí[實], not subordinate relationships between genus and species. And then they use the 'míng[名]' in other to denotes not a general concept but a kind of category. Therefore the concept of 'míng[名]' used as a meaning of general concept and sorted out integrated concept system of 'míng[名]' as two categories of míng[名] and shí[實] at the same time in logical argumentations of early Chinese philosophers. The '$l{\grave{e}}i$[類]' of pre-Chin difference from genus of Aristotle spontaneously and conceptually. It is not a concept that in other to compose subordinate relationships and integrated systems. It is not a kind of genus. It divide a kind of denotation that means some kind of aggregations into existence and nonexistence. And it divide a kind of connotation that means some kind of attributes into same and difference. When early Chinese philosophers make distinction and demonstration the correspondence between míng[名] and shí[實], so to speak distinction mean to divide and classify into correspondence or non-correspondence, and demonstration mean to argue about the division and classification. Therefore the concept of '$l{\grave{e}}i$[類]' is a criteria that is to divide and classify the correspondence between míng[名] and shí[實] in integrated concept system of 'míng[名]'.
