  • In this paper, the multiple micro robot soccer playing system is introduced at first. Learning and evolving in artificial agents is a difficult problem, but on the other hand a challenging task. In our laboratory, this soccer studies mainly centered on single agent learning problem. The construction of such experimental system has involved lots of kinds of challenges such as robot designing, vision processing, motion controlling. At last we will give some results showing that the proposed approach is feasible to guide the design of common agents system.

  • Distributed Artificial Intelligence (DAI) aims to study and develop techniques that allow interaction among intelligent entities. In the last two decades, some types of DAI architecture have been proposed for various fields. However, it can be noticed that the inconsistency phenomenon has not been dealt with properly. This is probably due to the fact that this phenomenon cannot be handled (at least directly) with classical logic. Hence, to deal with such inconsistencies directly, one should employ a logic other than the classical one. The DAI Architecture described in this work is based on a nonclassical logic called Annotated Paraconsistent Logic.

  • The basic treatments - Epithelial & stromal debridement with a swab or diamond burr. - Possible placement of a collagen shield or nictitans flap. - Topical treatment with Adequan IM diluted in artificial tears : 1 ml Adequan + 4 ml tears : One drop four times daily. - Topical treatment with an antibiotic drop : Three times daily - 5% sodium chloride ointment : Four times daily. If inflammation is severe - Topical treatment with nonsteroidal agent : Four times daily (Voltaren, Ocufen, or Profenyl) - Cyclosporine A (Optimmune) : Twice daily Healing time - Healing typically occurs rapidly - Fluorescein negative : 7-10 days - Vascular keratitis : Often several months

  • Potate tubers with slver scurf lesions were collected from the cold storage at Pyungchang, Kangwon province in Korea. The causal agent of the silver scurf was identified as Helminthosporium solani by mycological characteristics of conidia and conidiophores. Pathogenicity of the fungus was confirmed by artificial inoculation on the potato tuber. This is the first report of potato silver scarf by Helminthosporium solani in Korea.

  • Light therapy (also called light treatment or phototherapy) involves scheduled exposure to bright artificial light. Evidence-based treatments for sleep disorders especially for circadian rhythm sleep disorders include light therapy and pharmacotherapy. In clinical practice, many of patients with sleep problems tend to impair circadian rhythmicity. Considering that light is the most potent entraining agent of circadian rhythm, careful use of light therapy can be recommended for patients with several kinds of sleep disorders. I briefly review the possible therapeutic mechanisms and clinical applications of light therapy, focusing on circadian sleep disorders.

  • To determine the impact of artificial tears which include carboxymethyl cellulose on a hydrogel contact lenses. Methods: A contact lenses made of the cross-linking agent, EGDMA (ethylene glycol dimethacrylate) and HEMA (2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate) and with added NVP (n-vinyl-2-pyrrolidone) and MMA (methyl methacrylate) was evaluated for water content, refractive index, spectral transmittance and contact angle of produced contact lens. Results: The physical properties of the sampled copolymerized polymers showed that water content, refractive index, visible ray transmittance and contact angle were in the range of 26.61%~48.58%, 1.422~1.455, 80.8%~91.4% and $33.93^{\circ}{\sim}65.70^{\circ}$, respectively. In addition, after soaking with artificial tears, the water content, refractive index and contact angle were in the range of 24.46%~48.25%, 1.422~1.457, 77.0%~91.0% and $37.25^{\circ}{\sim}77.33^{\circ}$, respectively. The changes of the physical property depending on hydration time and showed an increase of refractive index and contact angle, decrease of water content and visible ray transmittance. Conclusions: Artificial tears which include carboxymethyl cellulose sodium which is used as a wetting agent influenced water content, refractive index, contact angle and spectral transmittance of a hydrogel contact lenses.

  • In this study, we designed a high-strength, low-alkali type cement composite for artificial reef by mixing various binders and evaluated whether it is possible to manufacture it with an ME method 3D printer. As a result of the tests, it is found that it is important to control the water-binder ratio, the silica sand-binder ratio, and the type of silica sand in order to control the fluidity of the cement composites to enable 3D printing. The surface quality of 3D printer output can be achieved by adjusting the amount of viscosity agent added while obtaining printable fluidity. In the cement composites mixing proportion using the alpha-type hemihydrate gypsum, a setting control agent needs to be used to control the quick setting effect. It is also necessary to derive the time to maintain the fluidity, and to apply it when printing. To obtain the required strength, the mix proportion needs to be modified while satisfying the fluidity level of 3D-printable cement composites. In the present study, 3D-printable mix proportions were designed by the use of multi-component binders including alpha-type hemihydrate gypsum a for low-alkali type artificial reefs, and the printability was confirmed. A further study needs to be performed to quantitatively evaluate the alkali reduction effect.

  • The evoked potentials for concentrations of solutions of the four qualities of tastes(i.e., sweet, salty, sour, and bitter tastes) were measured. The solution was applied to the chorda tympani nerve located on the left side of the tongue at 20mm from the tip and 15mm left from the center line. The evoked potentials were detected from Cz referred to A1(left lobe) with the ground at the Fpz position. The Maximum potential level and its latency were evaluated. The individual threshold level of concentration of the solutions of four tastes were measured. Artificial saliva was used as a control solution. The evoked positive potentials for four qualities of tastes (i.e., gustatory evokde potentials) were found to be around 150ms by averaging eight responses. The arbitrary concentration of the solutions were presented by the relative concentration, which was the ratio of the arbitrary concentration to the individual threshold level. The characteristic relations between the latency and the relative concentration ;and those between the potential level and the relative concentration were evaluated. These evalutions showed that (1) the latencies for salty and bitter tastes denoted the minimum values due to for the change of relative concentration, and that (2) the latency for sour taste decreased as the relative concentrations increased, while the latency for sweet taste denoted the inverse tendency, Sinificant differences between any two maximum potential levels were not recognized. A response latencies to sucrose were abolished after treatment of tongue by a sweet-suppressing agent.

  • Objective: The purpose of this study was to evaluate shear bond strength (SBS) and failure site location of brackets bonded to enamel with or without desensitizer application. Methods: Sixty-six freshly extracted human premolar teeth were randomly divided into 3 groups of 22. Group 1 served as the control. Desensitizer was applied to the remaining teeth at two time intervals (Group 2, bonded immediately after Pro-$Relief^{TM}$ (Colgate-Palmolive Co., New York, NY, USA) application and Group 3, bonded 30 days after Pro-$Relief^{TM}$ application with the teeth stored in artificial saliva during the 30 days). Orthodontic brackets were bonded with a light cure composite resin and cured with a halogen light. After bonding, the SBS of the brackets was tested using a universal testing device. Adhesive remnant index (ARI) scores were determined after the brackets failed. Data were analyzed with analysis of variance, Tukey's HSD, and G tests. Results: The SBS was significantly lower in Group 2 than in Groups 1 (p = 0.024) and 3 (p = 0.017). Groups 1 and Group 3 did not differ (p = 0.991). ARI scores did not differ significantly among groups. Conclusions: The Pro-$Relief^{TM}$ desensitizer agent applied immediately before bonding significantly reduces bond strength, but the SBS values still exceed the minimum 5.9 - 7.8 MPa required for adequate clinical performance. Immersing the teeth in artificial saliva for 30 days after applying the Pro-$Relief^{TM}$ desensitizer agent and before bonding increased the SBS to control levels.
