The aim of this study was to isolate and identify the spoilage bacteria in the low salt cucumber brine. The PCR amplicons comprising a portion of the 16S rRNA gene of the isolated colonies were directly sequenced and the untrimmed whole sequencing results of the unknown strains were aligned with the type strains using BLAST of NCBI. Then Sequence Aligner and Sequence Match of RDP confirmed the outcome. The identified isolates were eight species and belong to three genuses: Clostridium, Lactobacillus, and Bacillus. The RFLP pattern of the 16S rRNA gene of isolates verified the identified species. From now on the complex spoiling process of law salt fermented cucumber could be analyzed using the isolated species individually or with certain combinations.

Objective: The purpose of this study was to evaluate and compare the dimensional accuracy between thermoformed and direct-printed aligners. Methods: Three types of aligners were manufactured from the same reference standard tessellation language (STL) file: thermoformed aligners were manufactured using Zendura FLX^TM (n = 12) and Essix ACE^TM (n = 12), and direct-printed aligners were printed using Tera Harz^TM TC-85DAP 3D Printer UV Resin (n = 12). The teeth were not manipulated with any tooth-moving software in this study. The samples were sprayed with an opaque scanning spray, scanned, imported to Geomagic^® Control X^TM metrology software, and superimposed on the reference STL file by using the best-fit alignment algorithm. Distances between the aligner meshes and the reference STL file were measured at nine anatomical landmarks. Results: Mean absolute discrepancies in the Zendura FLX^TM aligners ranged from 0.076 ± 0.057 mm to 0.260 ± 0.089 mm and those in the Essix ACE^TM aligners ranged from 0.188 ± 0.271 mm to 0.457 ± 0.350 mm, while in the direct-printed aligners, they ranged from 0.079 ± 0.054 mm to 0.224 ± 0.041 mm. Root mean square values, representing the overall trueness, ranged from 0.209 ± 0.094 mm for Essix ACE^TM, 0.188 ± 0.074 mm for Zendura FLX^TM, and 0.140 ± 0.020 mm for the direct-printed aligners. Conclusions: This study showed greater trueness and precision of direct-printed aligners than thermoformed aligners.

Objective: The purpose of this finite element method (FEM) study was to analyze the biomechanical differences and tooth displacement patterns according to the traction direction, methods, and sites for total distalization of the mandibular dentition using clear aligner treatment (CAT). Methods: A finite element analysis was performed on four FEM models using different traction methods (via a precision cut hook or button) and traction sites (mandibular canine or first premolar). A distalization force of 1.5 N was applied to the traction site by changing the direction from -30 to +30° to the occlusal plane. The initial tooth displacement and von Mises stress on the clear aligners were analyzed. Results: All CAT-based total distalization groups showed an overall trend of clockwise or counterclockwise rotation of the occlusal plane as the force direction varied. Mesiodistal tipping of individual teeth was more prominent than that of bodily movements. The initial displacement pattern of the mandibular teeth was more predominant based on the traction site than on the traction method. The elastic deformation of clear aligners is attributed to unintentional lingual tipping or extrusion of the mandibular anterior teeth. Conclusions: The initial tooth displacement can vary according to different distalization strategies for CAT-based total distalization. Discreet application and biomechanical understanding of traction sites and directions are necessary for appropriate mandibular total distalization.

The aesthetic appearance of the incisors is essential for a natural and healthy smile, and it is also an important factor for confidence in interpersonal relationships. If there is crowding or protrusion of the anterior teeth, root canal treatment and excessive tooth removal are often required to resolve it in a short period of time. However, it is difficult to achieve sustainable aesthetic results. In this case, orthodontic treatment will be necessary to preserve the remaining tooth structure as much as possible. Middle-aged and elderly patients are often aware of the need for orthodontic treatment, but they are hesitant to use the traditional orthodontic treatment method using brackets because of the social gaze. In this case, clear aligners can be a good option. So, in this article, a case in which aesthetic needs were resolved with clear aligners alone and another case in which satisfactory results were obtained through restorative treatment following clear aligners application are reported.

An electron beam microcolumn composed of an electron emitter, micro lenses, scan deflector, and focus lenses have been fabricated and tested in the STEM mode. In this paper, we report a technique of precisely aligning the electron lenses by the laser diffraction patterns instead of the conventional alignment method based on aligner and STM. STEM images of a standard Cu-grid were observed using a fabricated microcolumn under both the retarding and accelerating modes.

상용 가능한 대규모 음성인식 시스템의 개발을 위해서는 음성 데이터베이스 구축이 중요한 과제의 하나로써, 많은 시간과 노력이 요구되며 특히 세그멘테이션과 라벨링은 그 노력의 상당부분이 된다. 본 논문은 ARS 주식 거래 시스템에서 사용되는 대용량 음성 DB의 효과적 구축을 위해 세그멘테이션 및 라벨링의 자동화에 대한 연구를 하였다. 본 연구를 위해 20대 성인 남녀를 대상으로 증권거래와 관련한 15개의 문장을 발성하도록 하였으며 Dialogic사의 D/41ESC보드를 장착하고, Window NT4.0 플렛폼에서 음성을 수집하였다. 또한 자동 Segmentation과 labeling은 Aligner를 사용하였으며 수동과 비교하기 위해 CSLU speech Tool Kit을 사용하였고 수작업은 숙련도가 있는 전문가가 하도록 하였다.

문서 또는 문장 단위의 정렬이 통계적 기계 번역에 활발히 이용되고 있다. 문장 정렬은 통계 기반의 기계 번역에서 가장 중요한 작업으로 정렬의 정확도와 속도는 기계 번역 시스템의 성능을 좌우할 수 있다. 문장 정렬을 수행 할 때 대용량의 문서입력이 있을 경우 처리 속도가 상당히 늦어지는 문제를 지적하고 그 문제를 해결하는 두 가지 방법을 제안한다. 문서의 구조적 특성을 이용하여 문서의 경계정보를 추출하거나 또는 단어 출현 빈도의 따른 경계 추출방법을 이용하여 문제를 해결한다. 상기의 방법이 정렬 속도 저하 개선에 비교적 효과가 있고 그에 따른 성능 저하가 없음을 실험을 통하여 확인하였다.

The overhang structure of photoresist in optical lithography was studied for the metallization of GaAs-related devices throughout lift-off method. Optical contact aligner with a dose of 8.5 m J/cm\ulcornerand with a wavelength of 300mm was used for ultraviolet exposure of single layer of S1400-27 photoresist. The overhang thickness shows a linear relationship with the soaking time in monochlorobenzene, which its magnitude becomes high at elevated softbake temperature. Such process conditions as a low softbake temperature, a long monochlorohbenzene soaking time and a little exposed energy make the development rate of photoresist lower. The optimum process conditions to obtain a target line-width, which include an appropriate overhang structure such as complete separation between the sidewall of photoresist pattern and the deposited metal edge, are determined as the softbake temperature of 64-74\ulcornerC, the monochlorobenzene soaking time of 10-15min, the ultraviolet exposure time of 70-100sec and the development time of 50-80sec.

Axis of rotation error on rotary system are significant; such as the spindle radial error motion of a aligner, wire bonder and inspector machine which results in the poor state of manufactured goods. In this paper, the simple stage which consists of one PZT actuator and rotary encoder, is analyzed and measured by high resolution capacitance type displacement sensor. As the result of experiment, the paper discusses several issues that must be considered when designing rotary stage driven by PZT.
