Echocardiographic measurements of cardiac output, including the modified Simpson's method, Automated Contour Tracking(ACT) method, and left ventricular outflow method are well described methods of evaluating cardiac function due to its reliability and the benefits of its non-invasive technique in human medicine. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the accuracy of an echocardiography estimate of cardiac output in isoflurane-anesthetized beagle dogs and was to compare the ACT method to the other methods used in measurement of cardiac output. In healthy beagle dogs, cardiac output results by echocardiography estimate methods showed an excellent correlations with those by the thermodilution method (The modified Simpson's method : r = 0.815, $r^2=0.665$, y = 0.434x + 0.311 ; ACT method : r = 0.86, $r^2=0.748$, y = 0.391x + 0.242 ; ventricular outflow method : r = 0.691, $r^2=0.478$, y = 0.593x + 0.242). Among the results obtained, the ACT method showed the highest correlation coefficient. In conclusion, our study demonstrated that echocardiography estimate methods did not prove to be suitable in accurately measuring absolute cardiac output values but showed an excellent correlation with thermodilution method. Therefore, by using the measurement of cardiac output as supplemental data, echocardiography estimate methods can be used for detection and correction of hemodynamic disturbances during emergency and anesthesia in veterinary practice.

The perception of traffic environment based on various sensors in autonomous driving system has a direct relationship with driving safety. Recently, as the perception model based on deep neural network is used due to the development of machine learning/in-depth neural network technology, a the perception model training and high quality of a training dataset are required. However, there are several realistic difficulties to collect data on all situations that may occur in self-driving. The performance of the perception model may be deteriorated due to the difference between the overseas and domestic traffic environments, and data on bad weather where the sensors can not operate normally can not guarantee the qualitative part. Therefore, it is necessary to build a virtual road environment in the simulator rather than the actual road to collect the traning data. In this paper, a training dataset collection process is suggested by diversifying the weather, illumination, sensor position, type and counts of vehicles in the simulator environment that simulates the domestic road situation according to the domestic situation. In order to achieve better performance, the authors changed the domain of image to be closer to due diligence and diversified. And the performance evaluation was conducted on the test data collected in the actual road environment, and the performance was similar to that of the model learned only by the actual environmental data.

Handover is the technology to minimize data lose of mobile devices and make continuous communication possible even if the device could be moved from one digital cell site to another one. That is, it is a function that enables the mobile user to avoid the disconnection of phone conversations when moving from a specific mobile communication area to another. Today, there are a lot of ongoing researches for fast and efficient hand-over, in order to address phone call's delay and disconnection which are believed to be the mobile network's biggest problems, and these should essentially be resolved in all mobile networks. Thanks to recent technology development in mobile network, the LTE network has been commercialized today and it has finally opened a new era that makes it possible for mobile phones to process data at high speed. In LTE network environment, however, a new authentication key must be generated for the hand-over. In this case, there can be a problem that the authentication process conducted by the hand-over incurs its authentication cost and delay time. This essay suggests an efficient key caching hand-over method which simplifies the authentication process: when UE makes hand-over from oMME to nMME, the oMME keeps the authentication key for a period of time, and if it returns to the previous MME within the key's lifetime, the saved key can be re-used.

Quite many papers about moving objects database (MOD) have been Published. Most of them are concerning of improving efficiency of updating policy, but none of them talks about verification of system's requirements. No matter how efficient updating policy is employed, a system designer still has to verify if the MOD satisfies user's requirement at the beginning of system lifestyle. For example, if a MOD serves n moving objects, then the designer must verity if it can update information for n moving objects and provide new information to moving objects within specified time limit. For the purpose of requirement analysis of MODs, we build a Petri net model for MOD using Design/CPN, and then we show how to verify whether the MOD satisfies user's requirements by simulation. The contribution of this paper is providing a simulation model for requirement analysis of MOD for the first time. The model is expansion of our previous fuzzy-timing Petri net model. The distance-based updating policy, and distributed database management system are reflected in this model and system analysis for moving objects is considered. It is built in Design/CPN so that the simulation can be automatically performed. The application of our model is not limited to requirement analysis, it is useful to study other MOD design issues, such as the trade-offs between update cost and information accuracy, and between the tim interval needed for updating database and MOD system resources, etc.

This study proposes IMToon(IMage-based carToon) which is an image-based cartoon authoring system using an image processing algorithm. The proposed IMToon allows general users to easily and efficiently produce frames comprising cartoons based on image. The authoring system is designed largely with two functions: cartoon effector and interactive story editor. Cartoon effector automatically converts input images into a cartoon-style image, which consists of image-based cartoon shading and outline drawing steps. Image-based cartoon shading is to receive images of the desired scenes from users, separate brightness information from the color model of the input images, simplify them to a shading range of desired steps, and recreate them as cartoon-style images. Then, the final cartoon style images are created through the outline drawing step in which the outlines of the shaded images are applied through edge detection. Interactive story editor is used to enter text balloons and subtitles in a dialog structure to create one scene of the completed cartoon that delivers a story such as web-toon or comic book. In addition, the cartoon effector, which converts images into cartoon style, is expanded to videos so that it can be applied to videos as well as still images. Finally, various experiments are conducted to verify the possibility of easy and efficient production of cartoons that users want based on images with the proposed IMToon system.

This paper looks into the process of the formation of a Chinese ethnic place in Jayang-dong, Gwangjin-gu. In doing so, the paper reviews Chinese immigrants with the approach of cultural adaptation. Specifically, in-depth interviews with both Chinese immigrants and Korean native people in Jayangdong has been conducted to analyze the local residents' reaction to the Chinese immigrants, the conflicts between the natives and the Chinese immigrants, and communications among them. Based on the analyses, the paper recognizes the change of relationship between the natives and the Chinese immigrants in the development of the ethnic place. The relationship between the Korean native people and Chinese immigrants in Jayang-dong turns out to be more positive than that in other Chinese towns. In Jayang-dong, in the early period of the formation of the area, the Korean native people and Chinese immigrants used to have conflicts. However, as time goes by, the conflicts has been resolved and they have embraced each other through interchanges between them based on mutual understanding and consideration. Cultural adaptation in Jayang-dong has occurred in the way that the immigrants have been integrated into the mainstream society based on the connectedness with both the native people and immigrants embracing each other.

We design an expert system for tomato smart farm using decision trees and construct a control system with decision structure similar to that of farmers by using the data generated by factors that vary depending on the surrounding environment of each house. At present, Smart farm's control system does not control itself like the way farmers have done so far. Therefore, the dependency of smart farm control system is still not high. Direct intervention by farmers is indispensable for environmental control based on surrounding environment such as sensor value in smart farm. Therefore, we aimed to design a controller that incorporates decision trees into the expert system to make a system similar to the decision making of farmers. Prior to controlling the equipment in the house, it automatically selects the most direct effect among the various environmental factors, and then builds an expert system for complex control by including criteria for decision making by farmers. This study focused on deriving results using data without using heavy tools. Data is coming out of many smart farms at present. We expect this to be a standard for a methodology that allows farmers to access quickly and easily and reduce direct intervention.

In this study, investigation on the polymerization characteristics of isoprene through nitroxide mediated controlled/"living" radical polymerization techniques was attempted. In the presence of acetol, linear increase of isoprene conversion with time and low polydispersities of the resulting polymers ($M_w/M_n$ < 1.5) were observed, which suggest successful controlled/"living" radical polymerization of isoprene. The microstructure of the resulting polyisoprene was composed of $\sim$ 22% of 3, 4, $\sim$30% of 1, 4-cis and $\sim$ 48% of 1, 4-trans. The optimum polymerization temperature was 145 $^{circ}C$, below which no significant polymerization behavior was observed. Non-cyclic nitroxide, such as di-tert-butyl nitroxide (DTBN) could not mediate the polymerization, whereas cyclic nitroxides (2, 2, 6, 6-tetramethyl-1-peperidine 1-oxyl (TEMPO) and 4-oxo-2, 2, 6, 6-tetramethyl-1-peperidine 1-oxyl (oxoTEMPO)) were successfully employed for the polymerization. However, isoprene dimerization reaction through Diels-Alder process was also observed at the given polymerization condition, which afforded a significant amount of limonene. Isoprene thermal autoinitiation was also possible, which was, however, considered to be not significant under the given polymerization condition.
