An ARIMA signal observed with measurement error is shown to have another ARIMA representation with nonlinear restrictions on parameters. For this model, the restricted Newton-Raphson estimator(RNRE) of the unit root is shown to have the same limiting distribution as the ordinary least squares estimator of the unit root in an AR(1) model tabulated by Dickey and Fuller (1979). The RNRE of parameters of the ARIMA(p,1,k) process and unit root tests base on the RNRE are developed.

To express constitutively the inulinase gene (INUl) of Kluyveromyces marxianus in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, three yeast promoters such as GAPDH, ADH1 and ENO1 were connected upstream of INUl. The resulting plasmids, pYIGP, pADHl-INU, and pENO-INU were introduced to S. cerevisiae SEY2102 host strain, respectively, and then each transformants were selected by staining of colonies on sucrose-agar plate. When the yeast transformants were cultivated on 2$\%$ dextrose media, the total expression levels of inulinase reached to 1.11 unit/mL, 0.88 unit/mL, and 0.69 unit/mL for respective GAPDH, ADH1, and ENO1 promoter systems. On 4% dextrose media, however, the inulinase activities were observed at 2.00 unit/mL for pYIGP, 0.71 unit/mL for pADH1-INU, and 1.40 unit/mL for pENO-INU. This result indicates that the constitutive expression of INUl was significantly affected by the initial concentration of dextrose and the promoter strength was in the order GAPDH, ENO1, and ADH1 promoter at high dextrose concentration. Taking into account the plasmid stability, however, it is suggested that the ENO1 promoter system is more suitable for the INU1 expression on high dextrose medium or in the fed-batch cultivation accumulating ethanol at high level.

As NPPs' operating times increase, the integrity of nuclear components is continually degraded due to aging effects of systems, structures and components. In addition, for the case of continued operation beyond design life, additional aging effects occurred during the extended operating period lead to more degradation of the integrity of nuclear components. Therefore, it is very important to mange and evaluate the aging to secure the safety of NPPs. Wolsong unit 1 is approaching to its design life of 30 years in 2012. The license renewal documents for continued operation of Wolsong unit 1 Is under reviewing now. In this paper, regulatory technologies for continued operation of Wolsong unit 1 developed by KINS will be introduced. That technologies include the safety review guidelines, regulatory guides for aging management program and regulatory program for audit calculation.

Aim: To evaluate the agreement between colposcopic diagnosis and cervical pathology a retrospective chart review was performed. Materials and Methods: This study included 437 patients who underwent colposcopy and cervical biopsy or conization at Siriraj Hospital from October 2010 - December 2012. The patient clinical characteristics, cervical cytology results, colposcopic diagnoses, cervical pathology results were recorded and correlations between variables were analyzed. Results: Agreement of colposcopic diagnosis and cervical pathology was matched in 253 patients (57.9%). The strength of agreement with weighted Kappa statistic was 0.494 (p<0.001). Colposcopic diagnoses more often overestimated (31.1%) than underestimated (11%) the cervical pathology. Agreement of colposcopic diagnosis and cervical pathology within 1 grade was found in 411 patients (94.1%). Positive predictive value (PPV) of high grade colposcopy or more was 75.5%, whereas the negative predictive value (NPV) of insignificant and low grade colposcopy was 83.8%. False positives of high grade colposcopy or more were 21%. False negatives of insignificant or low grade colposcopy were 19.1%. Conclusions: Strength of agreement between colposcopic diagnosis and cervical pathology was found to be only moderate. A biopsy at colposcopy should be performed at a gold standard level to detect high grade lesions.

Changes of free sugars, lipoxygenase activity and effects of chitosan treatment were analyzed during cultivation of soybean sprout. Free sugars(sucrose, raffinose and stachyose) were more rapidly decomposed in the cotyledon of soybean sprout. Contents of sucrose and raffinose in control group were decreased more rapidly than those of chitosan treated soybean sprouts (CTSS). But the decreasing rate of stachyose was higher in the CTSS. In the hypocotyl, 82% of L-2/3 activity were decreased, whereas 42% of the activity were decreased in the cotyledon after 132 hours of germination. The effect of chitosan treatment on the lipoxygenase activity was more effective on L-2/3 isozyme than L-1. After the germination period of 132 hours, L-2/3 activity of control group was 82.7unit/mg and that of CTSS was 56unit/mg.

In this paper, study and experiments are performed for finding recognition unit fit which can be used in large vocabulary recognition system. Specifically, a phoneme that is currently used as recognition unit and a syllable in which Korean is well characterized are selected. From comparisons of recognition experiments, the study is performed whether a syllable can be considered as recognition unit of Korean recognition system. For report of an objective result of the comparison experiment, we collected speech data of a male speaker and processed them by hand-segmentation for phoneme boundary and labeling to construct speech database. And for training and recognition based on HMM, we used HTK (HMM Tool Kit) 2.0 of commercial tool from Entropic Co. to experiment in same condition. We applied two HMM model topologies, 3 emitting state of 5 state and 6 emitting state of 8 state, in Continuous HMM on training of each recognition unit. We also used 3 sets of PBW (Phonetically Balanced Words) and 1 set of POW(Phonetically Optimized Words) for training and another 1 set of PBW for recognition, that is "Speaker Dependent Medium Vocabulary Size Recognition." Experiments result reports that recognition rate is 95.65% in phoneme unit, 94.41% in syllable unit and decoding time of recognition in syllable unit is faster by 25% than in phoneme.

Background: This study aimed to compare preliminary data on the outcomes of sutureless aortic valve replacement (SU-AVR) with those of aortic valve replacement (AVR). Methods: We conducted a retrospective study of SU-AVR in moderate- to high-risk patients from 2013 to 2016. Matching was performed at a 1:1 ratio using the Society of Thoracic Surgeons predicted risk of mortality score with sex and age. The primary outcome was 30-day mortality. The secondary outcomes were operative outcomes and complications. Results: A total of 277 patients were studied. Ten patients (50% males; median age, 81.5 years) underwent SU-AVR. Postoperative echocardiography showed impressive outcomes in the SU-AVR group. The 30-day mortality was 10% in both groups. In our study, the patients in the SU-AVR group developed postoperative thrombocytopenia. Platelet counts decreased from $225{\times}10^3/{\mu}L$ preoperatively to 94.5, 54.5, and $50.1{\times}10^3/{\mu}L$ on postoperative days 1, 2, and 3, respectively, showing significant differences compared with the AVR group (p=0.04, p=0.16, and p=0.20, respectively). The median amount of platelet transfusion was higher in the AVR group (12.5 vs. 0 units, p=0.052). Conclusion: There was no difference in the 30-day mortality of moderate-to high-risk patients depending on whether they underwent SU-AVR or AVR. Although SU-AVR is associated with favorable cardiopulmonary bypass and cross-clamp times, it may be associated with postoperative thrombocytopenia.

The objective of this paper is to suggest a new quantification method for multi-unit probabilistic safety assessment (PSA) that removes the overestimation error caused by the existing delete-term approximation (DTA) based quantification method. So far, for the actual plant PSA model quantification, a fault tree with negates have been solved by the DTA method. It is well known that the DTA method induces overestimated core damage frequency (CDF) of nuclear power plant (NPP). If a PSA fault tree has negates and non-rare events, the overestimation in CDF drastically increases. Since multi-unit seismic PSA model has plant level negates and many non-rare events in the fault tree, it should be very carefully quantified in order to avoid CDF overestimation. Multi-unit PSA fault tree has normal gates and negates that represent each NPP status. The NPP status means core damage or non-core damage state of individual NPPs. The non-core damage state of a NPP is modeled in the fault tree by using a negate (a NOT gate). Authors reviewed and compared (1) quantification methods that generate exact or approximate Boolean solutions from a fault tree, (2) DTA method generating approximate Boolean solution by solving negates in a fault tree, and (3) probability calculation methods from the Boolean solutions generated by exact quantification methods or DTA method. Based on the review and comparison, a new intersection removal by probability (IRBP) method is suggested in this study for the multi-unit PSA. If the IRBP method is adopted, multi-unit PSA fault tree can be quantified without the overestimation error that is caused by the direct application of DTA method. That is, the extremely overestimated CDF can be avoided and accurate CDF can be calculated by using the IRBP method. The accuracy of the IRBP method was validated by simple multi-unit PSA models. The necessity of the IRBP method was demonstrated by the actual plant multi-unit seismic PSA models.
