A fully integrated cost-effective and low-power single chip Lithium-Ion (Li-Ion) battery protection IC (BPIC) for portable devices is presented. The control unit of the battery protection system and the MOSFET switches are integrated in a single package to protect the battery from over-charge, over-discharge, and over-current. The proposed BPIC enters into low-power standby mode when the battery becomes over-discharged. A new auto release function (ARF) is adopted to release the BPIC from standby mode and safely return it to normal operation mode. A new delay shorten mode (DSM) is also proposed to reduce the test time without increasing pin counts. The BPIC implemented in a $0.18-{\mu}m$ CMOS process occupies an area of $750{\mu}m{\times}610{\mu}m$. With DSM enabled, the measured test time is dramatically reduced from 56.82 s to 0.15 s. The BPIC chip consumes $3{\mu}A$ under normal operating conditions and $0.45{\mu}A$ under standby mode.

We investigated a trait of odor and the relationship between odor unit and odorous compounds using multiple regression analysis based on data compiled from Sihwa (SIC), Banwol (BIC), Banwol plating (BPIC) and Poseung industrial complex (PIC). These areas are odor control areas in Gyeonggi province. It was revealed that $NH_3$ and styrene concentrations in SIC and BPIC were relatively higher and $H_2S$ concentration especially in mc was more than five times higher than other areas. As a result of regression analysis using SAS, intensity of odor unit was highly related to concentrations of $H_2S$, TMA, styrene and n-valeraldehyde in SIC, $H_2S$, acetaldehyde, and butyraldehyde in BPIC and $NH_3$ in BIC.

A low-power design technique for lithium-ion Battery-Protection Integrated Circuit (BPIC) for multi cell configuration is proposed. The hardware sharing scheme with more precisely divided operating states in the detection range could reduce the power consumption significantly, especially during the normal state. The usefulness of the proposed scheme was confirmed through HSPICE simulations.

최근, 환경문제에 대한 국제적인 관심이 증대되면서 선박 연료에 의한 온실가스 배출을 감소시키려는 노력이 이루어지고 있지만, 석유 연료에 대한 의존은 한동안 지속될 것으로 보인다. 선박의 총 운항 비용 중 연료비가 높은 비중을 차지하고 있으므로 해운 시장에 대한 유가의 영향력을 분석하는 것이 필요하다. 본 연구의 목적은 국제 유가 변동이 벌크선 4대 해운 시장인 운송 시장, 용선 시장, 신조선 시장, 중고선 시장의 상관관계와 영향력을 검증하는 것이다. 유가 변수는 WTI를 사용하였고, 4대 해운 시장은 운임, 용선료, 신조선가, 중고선가를 케이프사이즈, 파나막스, 수프라막스, 핸디사이즈로 구분하여 2017년 5월부터 2020년 12월까지 월별 데이터를 사용하였다. 첫째, VAR 모형을 이용한 상관관계 분석 결과, 국제 유가의 변화가 BCIS에 미치는 효과는 시차 2기에서만, BSIS의 경우 모든 시차에서, BHIS의 경우 시차 1기에서만 통계적으로 정(+)의 유의적인 효과를 갖는 것으로 나타났다. 둘째, VECM 모형을 이용한 상관관계 분석 결과, BPIC, BHIC, BCIN, BHIR의 경우 국제 유가와의 공적분 관계에서 공적분 계수값이 5% 유의수준에서 부(-)의 유의적인 효과를 갖는 것으로 나타났다. 또한, 동태적 상관관계의 경우 시차 1기의 유가 가격 상승은 금기의 BCIN 신조선가 하락으로, 시차 1기와 2기의 유가 가격 상승은 금기의 BHIR 중고선가 하락으로 이어지는 것으로 나타났다.

Although various statistical methods have been developed to map time-dependent genetic factors, most identified genetic variants can explain only a small portion of the estimated genetic variation in longitudinal traits. Gene-gene and gene-time/environment interactions are known to be important putative sources of the missing heritability. However, mapping epistatic gene-gene interactions is extremely difficult due to the very large parameter spaces for models containing such interactions. In this paper, we develop a Gaussian process (GP) based nonparametric Bayesian variable selection method for longitudinal data. It maps multiple genetic markers without restricting to pairwise interactions. Rather than modeling each main and interaction term explicitly, the GP model measures the importance of each marker, regardless of whether it is mostly due to a main effect or some interaction effect(s), via an unspecified function. To improve the flexibility of the GP model, we propose a novel grid-based method for the within-subject dependence structure. The proposed method can accurately approximate complex covariance structures. The dimension of the covariance matrix depends only on the number of fixed grid points although each subject may have different numbers of measurements at different time points. The deviance information criterion (DIC) and the Bayesian predictive information criterion (BPIC) are proposed for selecting an optimal number of grid points. To efficiently draw posterior samples, we combine a hybrid Monte Carlo method with a partially collapsed Gibbs (PCG) sampler. We apply the proposed GP model to a mouse dataset on age-related body weight.
