본 논문에서는 위치 데이터 분석의 한 방법으로 사람의 위치 정보와 파티클 필터를 이용해서 이동 상태를 파악하고자 한다. 사람의 이동정보인 위치 데이터에 포함된 시간, 위도, 경도를 이용하여 속도를 구한 뒤, 이전 시간 데이터들의 속도들과의 평균값을 파티클 필터(Particle Filter)에 적용하여 얻은 결과로 인간의 이동 상태를 판단하고자 한다. 파티클 필터에 요구되는 확률분포는 인간 이동 속도가 지수 분포에 근사한다는 사실에 기반하여 적용하였다. 인간의 이동 상태는 파티클들의 확률값으로 주어진다. 이동 확률 판단을 위해 파티클 필터를 통해 얻은 확률적 수치들을 이용해 이동 상태가 정지인지 이동인지 판단했다. 그리고 실험을 통해 얻은 결과들을 제시하였다.

Chronobiology is the area of medicine that is, how time-related event shape our daily biologic responses and apply to any aspect of medicine with regard to altering pathophysiology and treatment response. In mammals, there are several evidences that prove suprachiasmatic nuclei(SCN) is the major circadian pacemaker and the circadian rhythm influences so many biological aspects of an living organism such as rest-activity, thermoregulation, reproduction, and endocrine system. In case of human beings, there had been little information of circadian system. That may be due to the experimental, technical difficulties to study but also to the fact that human has the more complex environments that may alter the circadina rhythm like the artificial light, many socio-cultural aspects and so forth. However, several reports of these days indicate human's circadian system is composed of two or more circadian oscillators and SCN is the major circadian oscillator among them like the other mammals. Free-running circadinan period of mankind is about 24 hours rather than about 25 hours, and rest-activity rhythm is polymodal like other species. In addition to that, human may have capcities to change the circadian rhythm as the seasonal changes of daynight schedule. In this article, the author will summarize recent progress of anatomy and physiology of the circadian clock mechanism in humans.

It is well known that urgency resulted from time stress can be a great cause to industrial accidents. Therefore, time stress has been studied in the aspect of macroscopic view, namely industrial safety management, but has not been studied in microscopic view such as psychophysiological approach. Among diverse psychophysiological indices, Electroencephalogram(EEG) would be on of the most objective psychophysiological research technique on human errors though few research has been taken yet. This study aimed to get characteristics of human error while committing a simple arithmetic addition task by utilizing the power spectrum technique of EEG data. Each experiment was composed of 2 tasks under different condition - with and without time stress. As subjects, 5 young undergraduate students in their early twenties participated in this study. The results advocated a well-known fact that time stress downgrades the performance of human workers. However, correct answer rate and response time were not significantly influenced by time stress factor which might be explained by the constructural factor adopted in the present study. As in the previous studies, among various EEG-related measures, relative band power ratios of ${\alpha}$ and ${\beta}$ waves to sum of ${\alpha}$,${\beta}$,${\theta}$ wave powers, namely $P_{{\alpha}/({\alpha}+{\beta}+{\theta})}$ and $P_{{\beta}/({\alpha}+{\beta}+{\theta})}$ seemed to be the most effective measures to grasp variation of brain activities in time-stressed situation so that discussions were expanded about their variations.

이 글은 황윤석(1729-1791)을 사례로 삼아 18세기 조선 지식인들에게서 천인관계 문제가 어떻게 변화해 가고 있었는가를 검토하는 데 목표를 둔다. 천인관계 문제는 유학의 변화를 가늠하는 중요한 지표로서, 전통적으로 유학사의 핵심 주제 가운데 하나로 자리 잡아왔다. 황윤석은 주자학의 바탕 위에서 서학(Western Learning)을 수용한 인물이라는 점에서 이 문제를 검토하기 위한 좋은 사례의 하나이다. 황윤석의 학문은 주자학의 범위를 거의 벗어나지 않았지만, 어려서부터 고학(古學)에 심취했고, 이를 바탕으로 서학(西學)에 관심을 가졌다. 이수(理數)는 고학과 서학을 관통하는 핵심 개념으로서, 종래의 선험적이고 신비적인 진리에서 부분적이나마 경험적이고 실용적인 지식을 함축하는 개념으로 확장되었다. 황윤석은 천문 현상에 대한 이해에서 사실중심적 접근법과 가치중심적 접근법을 병행하였다. 서양 천문학은 그로 하여금 사실중심적 접근법의 측면에서 많은 진전을 이루도록 해 주었지만, 그럼에도 불구하고 그는 가치중심적 접근법을 통해 일 월식을 비롯한 천문의 변리(變異)에 대해 재리논적(災異論的) 관점을 유지할 수 있었다. 사실 가치의 이분법은 당시 주자학이 새로운 지식의 유입에 맞서 스스로의 정체성을 고수하기 위한 방법의 하나였다고 할 수 있다. 그것은 '천도(자연) 인사(인간)' 방향의 간섭을 배제하는 것일 뿐, '인사(인간) 천도(자연)' 방향의 관심까지 부정하는 것은 아니었다. 자연의 감계적 기능을 긍정적으로 강조하는 그가 보기에 천인관계론은 여전히 중요한 논제였다.

A sample of Italian manufacturing companies was selected in order to verify the abilities and effects (relationships) of the management factors human resources, leadership and strategic planning on company performance. The Partial Least Squares (PLS) estimation method was used for analyzing the data collected, where the relationships between the management factors and performance were formalized by a Structural Equation Model (SEM). The analysis of the survey data showed unexpected result regarding the non significant direct relationship between Leadership and Performance. The effect of Leadership is obtained by an indirect relationship through Human Resources. The combination of Leadership and Human Resources has hence been identified as the management factors which have the highest impact on the performance of Italian industrial companies. Another interesting and unexpected result was that there was no significant impact of Strategic Planning on Performance. It seems that the leaders of Italian industrial companies have not understood that good strategic planning is a necessary condition for achieving excellence. So another improvement area is in fact Strategic Planning. This area should have the highest priority of any top management team and the focus should include how to establish a strong relationship between strategic planning and performance. No correlation between strategic planning and performance is a strong indication that something is wrong. It is not enough that Leadership is doing Strategic Planning-Leadership is also about studying and follow up on results in order to assure impacts on performance. This link seems to be missing in Italian industrial companies.

Annotating images with tags that describe the content of the images facilitates image retrieval. However, this task is challenging for both humans and computers. In response, a new approach has been proposed that converts the manual image annotation task into CAPTCHA challenges. However, this approach has not been widely used because of its weak security and the fact that it can be applied only to annotate for a specific type of attribute clearly separated into mutually exclusive categories (e.g., gender). In this paper, we propose a novel image annotation CAPTCHA scheme, which can successfully differentiate between humans and computers, annotate image content difficult to separate into mutually exclusive categories, and generate verified test images difficult for computers to identify but easy for humans. To test its feasibility, we applied our scheme to annotate images of human faces with their age groups and conducted user studies. The results showed that our proposed system, called AgeCAPTCHA, annotated images of human faces with high reliability, yet the process was completed by the subjects quickly and accurately enough for practical use. As a result, we have not only verified the effectiveness of our scheme but also increased the applicability of image annotation CAPTCHAs.

Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER) is an organelle where most secretory and membrane proteins are synthesized, folded, and undergo further maturation. As numerous conditions can perturb such ER function, eukaryotic cells are equipped with responsive signaling pathways, widely referred to as the Unfolded Protein Response (UPR). Chronic conditions of ER stress that cannot be fully resolved by UPR, or conditions that impair UPR signaling itself, are associated with many metabolic and degenerative diseases. In recent years, Drosophila has been actively employed to study such connections between UPR and disease. Notably, the UPR pathways are largely conserved between Drosophila and humans, and the mediating genes are essential for development in both organisms, indicating their requirement to resolve inherent stress. By now, many Drosophila mutations are known to impose stress in the ER, and a number of these appear similar to those that underlie human diseases. In addition, studies have employed the strategy of overexpressing human mutations in Drosophila tissues to perform genetic modifier screens. The fact that the basic UPR pathways are conserved, together with the availability of many human disease models in this organism, makes Drosophila a powerful tool for studying human disease mechanisms.

Detecting and capturing 3D human structures from the intensity-based image sequences is an inherently arguable problem, which attracted attention of several researchers especially in real-time activity recognition (Real-AR). These Real-AR systems have been significantly enhanced by using depth intensity sensors that gives maximum information, in spite of the fact that conventional Real-AR systems are using RGB video sensors. This study proposed a depth-based routine-logging Real-AR system to identify the daily human activity routines and to make these surroundings an intelligent living space. Our real-time routine-logging Real-AR system is categorized into two categories. The data collection with the use of a depth camera, feature extraction based on joint information and training/recognition of each activity. In-addition, the recognition mechanism locates, and pinpoints the learned activities and induces routine-logs. The evaluation applied on the depth datasets (self-annotated and MSRAction3D datasets) demonstrated that proposed system can achieve better recognition rates and robust as compare to state-of-the-art methods. Our Real-AR should be feasibly accessible and permanently used in behavior monitoring applications, humanoid-robot systems and e-medical therapy systems.

Antigenic potential of genetically engineered human granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (CJ-50001) was assessed in guinea pigs and mice. In active systemic anaphylaxis (ASA) test, although CJ-50001 at 50 $\mu\textrm{g}$ /head induced anaphylactic responses, CJ-50001 5 $\mu\textrm{g}$ /head alone or 50 $\mu\textrm{g}$ / head with adjuvant did not induce anaphylactic responses. In passive systemic anaphylaxis test (PCA) or passive hemagglutination test (PHA), CJ-50001 did not induce positive responses. It is concluded that, in light of the fact that CJ-50001 was antigenic only in ASA but not in PCA or PHA and also that CJ-50001 is a foreign human recombinant protein to guinea pigs, CJ-50001 may not induce systemic allergic react-ion in its clinical use in human.

The stability of four hemoglobins (Hb) in dimer forms (low concentration) were investigated by the kinetics of denaturation. The rate constants of denaturation were obtained by variation of 280 nm absorption versus time in 10 mM Tris-HCl, 10 mM EDTA, pH 8.0 at $45^{\circ}C$ in the absence and presence of 0.5 M ethanol, dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), formamide, and glycerol. The results show the trend of rate constants in different co-solvents in the following order: chicken hemolysate < human hemolysate and chicken Hb D < chicken Hb A. The buried surface area was calculated for Hb samples in the absence of cosolvents. Accordingly, the trend points out that: chicken Hb D > chicken Hb A > human Hb A. These results suggest that both chicken hemolysate and chicken Hb D are relatively more stable than human and chicken Hb A, respectively. However, the denaturation rate constants of Hb in different co-solvents have designated the following order: ethanol > DMSO > formamide > glycerol. As a matter of fact, this phenomenon is an indication of an increase in the denaturation capacity (DC) and hydrophobicity, and a decrease in the surface tension of the solution in the preceding co-solvents.
