  • In this paper we present an adaptive method for accelerating conventional Maximum Entropy Method (MEM) for restoration of Passive Millimeter-Wave (PMMW) image from its blurred and noisy version. MEM is nonlinear and its convergence is very slow. We present a new method to accelerate the MEM by using an exponent on the correction ratio. In this method the exponent is computed adaptively in each iteration, using first-order derivatives of deblurred image in previous two iterations. Using this exponent the accelerated MEM emphasizes speed at the beginning stages and stability at later stages. In accelerated MEM the non-negativity is automatically ensured and also conservation of flux without additional computation. Simulation study shows that the accelerated MEM gives better results in terms of RMSE, SNR, moreover, it takes only about 46% lesser iterations than conventional MEM. This is also confirmed by applying this algorithm on actual PMMW image captured by 94 GHz mechanically scanned radiometer.

  • In this paper, Fractal analysis applied to evaluate machined surface profile. The spectrum method was used to calculate fractal dimension of generated surface profiles by Weierstrass-Mandelbrot fractal function. To avoid estimation errors by low frequency characteristics of FFT, the Maximum Entropy Method (MEM) was examined. We suggest a new criterion to define the MEM order m. MEM power spectrum with our criterion is proved to be advantageous by the comparison with the experimental results.

  • To Analysis of Correlation of Visual Function Findings, by assessing convergence and accommodation, 92 selected objects without any ocular diseases by apperatuses of visual chart(Shinnippon CT30) and phoropter(Shinnippon VT10) at a shan distance(40 cm) were tested upon MEM retinoscopy(Welch Allyn, USA), BELL retinoscopy(Welch Allyn, USA), binocular accommodative facility (${\pm}2.00$ D nipper, Bernell Co., USA), vergence facility(prism nipper, Bernell Co., USA). The results showed as follows. MEM retinoscopy(accommodative lag) showed the same result of a right eye and left eye. Bell retinoscopy(accommodative lag) showed higher correlations between right and left eye than MEM. The lower accommodative lag meant the higher accommodative facility. The binocular accommodative facility(polaroid) was higher than binocular accommodative facility(red-green). Correlations of accommodative facility between right and left eye were higher, and as the higher monocular accommodative facility also meant the higher binocular accommodative facility, monocular and binocular accommodative facilities were relative to vergence facility, These findings can be used as a clinical guide by curing patients' visual function.

  • Simultaneous myofibril and mitochondrial development is crucial for the cardiac differentiation of pluripotent stem cells (PSCs). Specifically, mitochondrial energy metabolism (MEM) development in cardiomyocytes is essential for the beating function. Although previous studies have reported that MEM is correlated with cardiac differentiation, the process and timing of MEM regulation for cardiac differentiation remain poorly understood. Here, we performed transcriptome analysis of cells at specific stages of cardiac differentiation from mouse embryonic stem cells (mESCs) and human induced PSCs (hiPSCs). We selected MEM genes strongly upregulated at cardiac lineage commitment and in a time-dependent manner during cardiac maturation and identified the protein-protein interaction networks. Notably, MEM proteins were found to interact closely with cardiac maturation-related proteins rather than with cardiac lineage commitment-related proteins. Furthermore, MEM proteins were found to primarily interact with cardiac muscle contractile proteins rather than with cardiac transcription factors. We identified several candidate MEM regulatory genes involved in cardiac lineage commitment (Cck, Bdnf, Fabp4, Cebpα, and Cdkn2a in mESC-derived cells, and CCK and NOS3 in hiPSC-derived cells) and cardiac maturation (Ppargc1α, Pgam2, Cox6a2, and Fabp3 in mESC-derived cells, and PGAM2 and SLC25A4 in hiPSC-derived cells). Therefore, our findings show the importance of MEM in cardiac maturation.

  • 마이크로 접합 공정은 미세 부품이나 박판의 접합에 사용되며, 이를 위해 다양한 공정이 개발되었다. 최근 MEMS(Micro Electro Mechanical System)활용 범위가 증가하고 있으며, MEMS에 사용되는 미세한 구조물의 접합이나 패키징에 접합 공정이 활용되고 있다. MEMS는 발전 단계이지만 전자 패키징(electronic packaging)은 성숙 단계인 반도체 산업에 사용되고 있다.(중략)

  • 조절반응의 평가는 옵토메트리 검사의 중요한 일부분이다. 본 연구는 조절반응의 타각적인 검사방법인 자동굴절계와 MEM 검영법 및 Nott 동적검영법으로 측정한 검사결과의 상관성과 차이를 비교하고자 하였다. 본 연구의 취지에 동의하는 19~29사이(평균나이 22.22${\pm}$2.43세)의 정상시력을 가진 27명의 대학생을 선정하여 4D(25cm)의 조절자극이 주어진 상태에서 자동굴절계(Shin-Nippon NVision-K 5001)와 MEM 검영법 및 Nott 동적검영법을 실시하여 조절 반응을 측정하였다. 4D의 조절자극에 대한 조절반응은 자동굴절계(Shin-Nippon NVision-K 5001) 3.70${\pm}$0.25D, MEM 검영법 3.58${\pm}$0.30D 그리고 Nott 동적검영법 3.77${\pm}$0.29D로 각각 측정되었다. 3가지 검사는 상호간에 높은 상관성이 있었다(p<0.05). MEM 검영법은 Nott 동적검영법보다 0.19${\pm}$0.13D 더 낮게 측정되었고(p<0.05), 자동굴절계(Shin-Nippon NVision-K 5001) 보다 0.12${\pm}$0.24D 더 낮게 측정되었다(p<0.05). Nott 동적검영법과 자동굴절계(Shin-Nippon NVision-K 5001)로 측정한 값은 유의한 차이가 없었다(p>0.05). MEM 검영법으로 측정한 조절반응은 Nott 동적검영법이나 자동굴절계로 측정한 값보다 더 낮았다. 저자는 조절반응을 평가할 때, MEM 검영법을 제외한 Nott 동적검영법과 자동굴절계(Shin-Nippon NVision-K 5001)는 상호 대체하여 사용할 수 있다고 주장한다.

  • The author extended the small properties of topological semilattices to that of regular semigroups [3]. In this paper, it could be shown that a semigroup S is almost regular if and only if over bar RL = over bar R.cap.L for every right ideal R and every left ideal L of S. Moreover, it has shown that the Bohr compactification of an almost regular semigroup is regular. Throughout, a semigroup will mean a topological semigroup which is a Hausdorff space together with a continuous associative multiplication. For a semigroup S, we denote E(S) by the set of all idempotents of S. An element x of a semigroup S is called regular if and only if x .mem. xSx. A semigroup S is termed regular if every element of S is regular. If x .mem. S is regular, then there exists an element y .mem S such that x xyx and y = yxy (y is called an inverse of x) If y is an inverse of x, then xy and yx are both idempotents but are not always equal. A semigroup S is termed recurrent( or almost pointwise periodic) at x .mem. S if and only if for any open set U about x, there is an integer p > 1 such that x$^{p}$ .mem.U.S is said to be recurrent (or almost periodic) if and only if S is recurrent at every x .mem. S. It is known that if x .mem. S is recurrent and .GAMMA.(x)=over bar {x,x$^{2}$,..,} is compact, then .GAMMA.(x) is a subgroup of S and hence x is a regular element of S.
