The artificial potential field (APF) methods provide simple and efficient motion planners for practical purposes. However, these methods have a local minimum problem, which can trap an object before reaching its goal. The local minimum problem is sometimes inevitable when an object moves in unknown environments, because the object cannot predict local minima before it detects obstacles forming the local minima. The avoidance of local minima has been an active research topic in the potential field based path planing. In this study, we propose a new concept using a virtual obstacle to escape local minima that occur in local path planning. A virtual obstacle is located around local minima to repel an object from local minima. We also propose the discrete modeling method for the modeling of arbitrary shaped objects used in this approach. This modeling method is adaptable for real-time path planning because it is reliable and provides lower complexity.

The chromosome number was identified and fluorescence in situ hybridization(FISH) mapping of 5S and 45S rDNAs were conducted for C. minima and C. lanceolata in the genus Codonopsis from Jeju island. In this study, we have confirmed that the somatic metaphase chromosome number determined as 2n=2x=16 was the same as the findings from the previous studies. While the conventional staining method makes it rather difficult to distinguish satellite chromosomes due to high degree of variability, FISH analysis produced the exact number and location of 5S and 45S rDNAs. Both species in the genus Codonopsis have a pair of 5S rDNA and their gene loci were observed on chromosome 3. Although two pairs of 45S rDNAs (one on chromosome 1 and the other on chromosome 8) were identified in both species, the 45S rDNA signals on chromosome 8 in C. minima were significantly weaker than those on chromosome 1. In addition, the 45S rDNA signals on chromosome 1 in C. lanceolata showed that the chromosome is non-homologus. In this study, we have determined cytogenetic characteristics of C. minima and C. lanceolata according to their gene replication patterns.

본 논문에서는 배열에서 구간 최소값 위치를 상수 시간에 찾기 위한 효율적인 자료구조를 제시한다. 최근의 생물 정보학 분야에서 빠른 DNA 서열의 검색을 위해 접미사 배열이 많이 사용되고 있는데 이 접미사 배열을 생성하는 문제는 구간 최소값 위치 문제를 포함하고 있다. 이 접미사 배열을 생성할 때는 구간 최소값 위치 문제를 빠르게 푸는 것뿐만 아니라 공간 효율적으로 해결하는 것도 중요하다. 그 이유는 DNA 서열이 수백만 개에서 수십 억 개의 염기를 가진 굉장히 큰 데이타이기 때문이다. 배열의 구간 최소간 위치를 상수 시간에 찾기 위해 지금까지 알려진 가장 효율적인 자료구조는 배열의 구간 최소값 문제를 Cartesian 트리에서의 LCA(Lowest Common Ancestor) 문제로 바꾸고 이 트리에서의 LCA 문제를 다시 특수한 배열에서의 구간 최소값 문제로 바꾸어 푸는 방법을 이용한 자료구조이다. 이 자료구조는 이론적으로 O(n) 공간을 사용하여 O(n) 시간에 생성된다. 하지만 이 자료구조는 배열의 구간 최소값 문제를 두 번에 걸쳐 다른 문제로 변환하는 과정을 포함하고 있기 때문에 실제로 사용되는 공간은 상당히 큰 13n이며 또한 많은 시간이 요구된다. 본 논문에서 제시하는 자료구조는 배열의 구간 최소값 문제를 다른 문제로 변환하지 않고 직접 구하는 자료구조이다. 따라서 이론적으로 O(n) 공간을 차지하며 O(n) 시간에 생성될 뿐만 아니라 실제적으로도 5n의 적은 공간을 사용하며 빠른 시간에 생성된다.

The genus Heterocapsa is one of the major dinoflagellate groups, with some of its species having worldwide distributions. However, prior to the present study, the phototrophic species Heterocapsa minima has been reported only from the northeast Atlantic Ocean. Recently, H. minima was found in the Korean waters, and a clonal culture was established. This culture was used to examine the morphology of the Korean strain H. minima HMMJ1604 through light and scanning electron microscopy, as well as for its genetic characterization. Furthermore, to determine the nationwide distribution of H. minima in Korea, its abundance was quantified in the waters of 28 stations in all four seasons in 2016-2018 using the quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction method. The overall morphology of H. minima HMMJ1604 was very similar to that of the Irish strain H. minima JK2. However, the Korean strain had five pores around the pore plate, whereas the Irish strain had six pores. When properly aligned, the sequences of the large subunit and internal transcribed spacer regions of the ribosomal DNA of the Korean strain were identical to those of the Irish strain. This species was detected in the waters of 26 out of 28 stations, but its abundance was greater than $1.0cells\;mL^{-1}$ at 8 stations. The highest abundance of H. minima was $44.4cells\;mL^{-1}$. Although this species was found in all seasons, its abundance was greater than $1.0cells\;mL^{-1}$ when the water temperature and salinity were $10.9-25.0^{\circ}C$ and 17.5-34.1, respectively. To the best knowledge, the present study reported for the first time that H. minima lives in the Pacific Ocean and is widely distributed in the Korean waters.

Low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes have attracted a great attention because of their excellent error correction capability with reasonably low decoding complexity. Among decoding algorithms for LDPC codes, the min-sum (MS) algorithm and its modified versions have been widely adopted due to their high efficiency in hardware implementation. In this paper, a self-adaptive MS algorithm using the difference of the first two minima is proposed for faster decoding speed and lower power consumption. Finding the first two minima is an important operation when MS-based LDPC decoders are implemented in hardware, and the found minima are often compressed using the difference of the two values to reduce interconnection complexity and memory usage. It is found that, when these difference values are bounded, decoding is not successfully terminated. Thus, the proposed method dynamically decides whether the termination-checking step will be carried out based on the difference in the two found minima. The simulation results show that the decoding speed is improved by 7%, and the power consumption is reduced by 16.34% by skipping unnecessary steps in the unsuccessful iteration without any loss in error correction performance. In addition, the synthesis results show that the hardware overhead for the proposed method is negligible.

A properly determined separation minima applied in Air Traffic Management(ATM) is critical for safe and efficient aircraft operations. The separation minima is primarily determined by the accuracy performance of surveillance system, and, due to the stringent aviation safety standard, the position accuracy of the surveillance system must be estimated with a high level of reliability. This study proposed a method for estimating the position accuracy of surveillance system with a relatively small amount of data by finding upper confidence limit instead of maximum likelihood values of unknown parameters. Through the proposed method, it is possible to determine a required separation minima with a more reliability in the face of data scarcity which often occurs when we implement a new surveillance system such as Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast (ADS-B).

It is of utmost importance to feed the current world population by improving agricultural production with newer varieties of food crops, but what is still more important is to add nutrition into the food. Some of the plants, which are currently growing in the wastelands, contain certain phytochemicals which add to their neutraceutical and health value. These plants contain secondary metabolites which enhance the over all metabolic functions of the body. Withasteroids are one of such phytochemicals. These chemicals are almost exclusively found in plants of the Solanaceae family; one of which, Physalis minima, contains several with asteroids. The aerial parts and roots of P. minima have been found to contain several steroids, identification of which is been discussed in this paper. These with asteroids contribute to the functional value since incorporation of withanolides in the diet may prevent or decrease the growth of tumors in humans.

There is great demand of nutraceutical secondary metabolites in the world so as to feed the population by improving agricultural production with new varieties of food crops but what is still more important is to add nutrition into the food. Physalis minima, plant of Solanaceae family, contain certain secondary metabolites which enhance the over all metabolic functions of the body. Withasteroids are one of such phytochemicals that are generally regarded as safe. These chemicals are almost monopoly of the plants of Solanaceae. The leaves, stem and roots of P. minima have been examined to yield several steroids, identification of which has been discussed in this paper. These withasteroids contribute to the potential nutraceutical and health function value since incorporation of withanolides in the diet may prevent or decrease the growth of tumors in humans.
