  • The purpose of this study is to suggest how the classic thesaurus structure of terms and links can be mined and updated from Wikipedia encyclopedia, which is the best practice of collective intelligence. In a comparison with ASIS&T thesaurus, it was found that Wikipedia contains a substantial coverage of domain-specific concepts and semantic relations. Furthermore, it was resulted that the structural characteristics of Wikipedia, such as redirects, categories, and mutual links are suitable to extract semantic relationships of thesaurus. It is needed to apply to update various thesauri, including multilingual thesaurus, in order to generalize the results of this research.

  • 개인용 컴퓨터가 많이 보급되고, CD-ROM과 같은 대용량의 기록장치가, 널리 퍼지면서, 전자화된 사전이 널리 사용되게 되었다. 그러나 이러한 전자사전들은 대개 매우 단순화된 탐색기능만을 제공하므로, 전자화의 잇점을 크게 살리지 못하고 있다. 따라서, 컴퓨터의 힘을 빌린, 보통의 종이로된 사전보다 훨씬 유용한 전자사전을 생각해 볼 수 있을 것이다. 이러한 노력이 과거 80년대 말에 하이퍼텍스트로 시작되어 이제는 매우 상업적인 곳에까지 사용되어지고있다. 국내에서도 전자사전의 개발은 다양하게 진행되어오고 있으나, 대부분 컴퓨터를 위한 사전, 다시 말하면, 빠른 접근시간, 적은 메모리사용만을 고려한 사전에 그치고 있다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 필요성에 부합하여, 백과사전자료를 가지고 사람을 위한 전자백과사전을 개발하는 방법을 소개한다. 특히, 이러한 개발과정을 자동화 할 수 있음을 보이고, 백과사전을 하이퍼텍스트로 자동변환하는 방법을 자세히 기술한다. 이 방법은 원시 자료를 하이퍼텍스트로 변환하기 좋은 정형화된 중간자료로 바꾸고, 이 중간자료와 기초적인 명사추출 알고리즘을 이용하여, 각 노드들 사이에 링크를 만드는 것이다. 또한, 이 방법을 이용하여 개발한 HE(Hypertext Encyclopedia) 시스템을 소개한다.

  • The small GTPase RhoA has been studied extensively for its role in actin dynamics. In this study, multiple bioinformatics tools were applied cooperatively to the microarray dataset GSE64714 to explore previously unidentified functions of RhoA. Comparative gene expression analysis revealed 545 differentially expressed genes in RhoA-null cells versus controls. Gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) was conducted with three gene set collections: (1) the hallmark, (2) the Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway, and (3) the Gene Ontology Biological Process. GSEA results showed that RhoA is related strongly to diverse pathways: cell cycle/growth, DNA repair, metabolism, keratinization, response to fungus, and vesicular transport. These functions were verified by heatmap analysis, KEGG pathway diagramming, and direct acyclic graphing. The use of multiple gene set collections restricted the leakage of information extracted. However, gene sets from individual collections are heterogenous in gene element composition, number, and the contextual meaning embraced in names. Indeed, there was a limit to deriving functions with high accuracy and reliability simply from gene set names. The comparison of multiple gene set collections showed that although the gene sets had similar names, the gene elements were extremely heterogeneous. Thus, the type of collection chosen and the analytical context influence the interpretation of GSEA results. Nonetheless, the analyses of multiple collections made it possible to derive robust and consistent function identifications. This study confirmed several well-described roles of RhoA and revealed less explored functions, suggesting future research directions.

  • Objective: The objective is to identify genomic regions and candidate genes associated with age to 105 kg (AGE), average daily gain (ADG), backfat thickness (BF), and eye muscle area (EMA) in Yorkshire pig. Methods: This study used a total of 104,380 records and 11,854 single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) data obtained from Illumina porcine 60K chip. The estimated genomic breeding values (GEBVs) and SNP effects were estimated by single-step genomic best linear unbiased prediction (ssGBLUP). Results: The heritabilities of AGE, ADG, BF, and EMA were 0.50, 0.49, 0.49, and 0.23, respectively. We identified significant SNP markers surpassing the Bonferroni correction threshold (1.68×10-6), with a total of 9 markers associated with both AGE and ADG, and 4 markers associated with BF and EMA. Genome-wide association study (GWAS) analyses revealed notable chromosomal regions linked to AGE and ADG on Sus scrofa chromosome (SSC) 1, 6, 8, and 16; BF on SSC 2, 5, and 8; and EMA on SSC 1. Additionally, we observed strong linkage disequilibrium on SSC 1. Finally, we performed enrichment analyses using gene ontology and Kyoto encyclopedia of genes and genomes (KEGG), which revealed significant enrichments in eight biological processes, one cellular component, one molecular function, and one KEGG pathway. Conclusion: The identified SNP markers for productive traits are expected to provide valuable information for genetic improvement as an understanding of their expression.

  • Recently, because of the danger and damages that following the steady development of scientific technologies, natural science is faced with many humane and ethical problems. So it is asserted the interdisciplinary with social and human science. However, it comes commonly that the ethical issues such as world view and one's view of life caused the development of sociology, especially development of the market economy. But in many cases, the interdisciplinary can be useful for widen the view of scholars. The interdisciplinary is actually connected with the problems of philosophy, and located in that domain. In this case, this is noticed as a model to the philosophers in 18th century, especially Denis Diderot. Diderot published De $l^{\prime}interpr{\acute{e}}tation$ de la nature during editing the Encyclopedia, from there he picked out the contents from piles of documents of Encyclopedia. Even though the contents or opinions of De $l^{\prime}interpr{\acute{e}}tation$ de la nature are inaccuracy or erroneous, it shows that how human-social science and natural science encountered. Diderot studied mathematics and then Diderot accepted to the natural science proposal, he approaches philosophy with translate English books to the French. Next he understood natural science by reading Buffon and Maupertuis, and during working for Encyclopedia, he possessed his knowledge that he can claim his opinion to other scholars. However in this De $l^{\prime}interpr{\acute{e}}tation$ de la nature, Diderot who sometimes rebutted other scholars' theory and demonstration, tried to build a philosophy on metaphysics in order to it was important for himself that he imposed the methods of science and importance of experience. Anyhow, this De $l^{\prime}interpr{\acute{e}}tation$ de la nature cause consider the recognition of Diderot in the field of natural science, and is suggested as a model about his Nature. This mean that it is an expression of his philosophy, and the content is found from natural philosophy and empirical philosophy. Like giving these attache the importance of method study for science and technique, these are targeted the promotion of popularization of natural-science and scientific-technology. Also it advocates fulfilling from reasonable philosophy to empirical philosophy. Therefore, the philosophy which was speculative and abstracted became his philosophy which was writing the meaning, as waiting the discovery of science. And at that time, the humanities made interdisciplinary with natural science.

  • We research the origin of noun-following noun, Hal-Pun-Li which describes rate and clear up the difference between Hal-Pun-Li and numeric nouns which express decimal fractions. Next, we point out the mistakes of encyclopedia of mathematics, the Korean dictionary and the textbook of mathematics in the primary school, related to the difference. And then we detect the problems of the contents in the textbook which cause them. Finally we think of the improvements of the textbook.

  • This study intends to gather terminology as a first step for encyclopedia of furniture from four areas such as traditional Korean furniture and architecture, modern and contemporary furniture, wood science, and wood culture by each expert. Since China, Japan, America, and European countries have chronologically influenced domestic furniture culture, the furniture terms are currently used by mixed languages such as Chinese characters, Japanese, English, Russian, Korean, etc., in the furniture fields and education. Domestic furniture companies and schools have had lots of difficulties in carrying out works due to the furniture terms not unified. This paper carried out through domestic furniture fields, internet, and furniture books from the inside and outside of the country, including the references of architecture, interior, crafts, and wood science and culture in order to research the terminology, results in the confusing language use of furniture terms at the furniture companies, schools for furniture education, and wood workshops having their own furniture terms. Therefore, for unified and standard furniture terminology, the terms gathered must be reviewed and conformed through the committee composed with the relevant experts so that it will be able to help the relevant business and education carry out their work better.
