  • Neutral genetic diversity found in plant species usually leaves an indelible footprint of historical events. Korea's main mountain range (referred to as the Baekdudaegan [BDDG]), is known to have served as a glacial refugium primarily for the boreal and temperate flora of northeastern Asia. In addition, life-history traits (life forms, geographic range, and breeding systems) influence the within- and among-population genetic diversity of seed plant species. For example, selfing species harbor significantly less within-population genetic variation than that of predominantly outcrossers. A previous study of two Liparis species (L. makinoana and L. kumokiri) emphasizes the role of the abovementioned factors shaping the levels of genetic diversity. Liparis makinoana, mainly occurring on the BDDG and self-incompatible, harbors high levels of within-population genetic diversity (expected heterozygosity, HeP = 0.319), whereas there is no allozyme variation (HeP = 0.000) in L. kumokiri, which is self-compatible and mainly occurs in lowland hilly areas. To determine if this trend is also found in other congeners, we sampled five populations of L. krameri from the southern part of the Korean Peninsula and investigated the allozyme-based genetic diversity at 15 putative loci. The somewhat intermediate levels of within-population genetic variation (HeP = 0.145) found in L. krameri are most likely due to its occurrence in mountainous areas that, despite being outside of the main ridge of the BDDG, still served as refugia, and a self-incompatible breeding system. Management strategies are suggested for L. krameri and L. makinoana based on the levels and distribution of genetic diversity and inbreeding.

  • Objective: In this study, the transcriptome profile of cow experiencing miscarriage during peri-implantation was investigated. Methods: Total transcriptomes were checked by RNA sequencing, and the analyzed by bioinformatics methods, the differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were analysed with hierarchical clustering and Kyoto encyclopedia of genes and genomes (KEGG) pathway analysis. Results: The results suggested that serum progesterone levels were significantly decreased in cows that miscarried as compared to the pregnant cows at 18, 21, 33, 39, and 51 days after artificial insemination. The RNA sequencing results suggested that 32, 176, 5, 10, and 2 DEGs were identified in the pregnant cows and miscarried cows at 18, 21, 33, 39, and 51 d after artificial insemination. And 15, 101, 1, 2, and 2 DEGs were upregulated, and 17, 74, 4, and 8 DEGs were downregulated in the cows in the pregnant and miscarriage groups, respectively at 18, 21, 33, and 39, but no gene was downregulated at 51 d after artificial insemination. These DEGs were distributed to 13, 20, 3, 6, and 20 pathways, and some pathway essential for pregnancy, such as cell adhesion molecules, tumor necrosis factor signaling pathway and PI3K-Akt signaling pathway. Conclusion: This analysis has identified several genes and related pathways crucial for pregnancy and miscarriage in cows, as well as these genes supply molecular markers to predict the miscarriage in cows.

  • 우리나라에서 산불 발생 공간분포는 인간 활동과 큰 관련성이 있기 때문에, 지역별 군집형태의 강한 공간의존성을 갖는다. 본 연구에서는 공간의존성의 개념에 입각하여 점자료 분석법을 통한 산불발생의 공간분포패턴을 분석하였다. Ripley의 K 함수를 이용하여 산불 발생 원인별 공간분포 형태를 파악하였으며, Kernel 함수를 통해 산불발생의 공간적 집중도를 분석하였다. 그 결과 정도는 상이하지만 모든 원인의 산불이 임의(random) 분포가 아닌 군집화(clustered)되어 발생하는 특징이 있는 것으로 나타났다. 또한, 산불 발생의 군집성을 원인별로 크게 두 집단으로 나눌 수 있었다. 첫째는 전국적 발생 패턴을 가지는 원인으로 입산자 실화, 논밭두렁 소각과 같은 활동과 관련된 것이고 또 다른 하나는 국지적 군집성을 가지는 원인으로 담뱃불이나 어린이 불장난, 방화이다. 그 군집성의 범위는 30 km내외로 나타났으며, 그 범위 밖에서는 임의 분포하고 있었다. Kernel 함수에 의한 원인별 집중도 분석에서는 강한 군집도를 나타냈던 3가지 원인(담뱃불, 어린이 불장난, 방화)의 경우 대부분 인구밀도가 높은 수도권을 중심으로 발생하는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

  • The genetic diversity and the genetic relationship among 30 genetic resources of T. officinale and T. coreanum collected from 20 regions in Korea were evaluated by using ISSR markers. Out of 127 loci detected overall, 122 were identified to be polymorphic with a rate of 96.0% at the 30 individuals. The intraspecific polymorphism between T. officinale and T. coreanum was 92.6% and 88.2%, respectively. The genetic similarity matrix (GSM) revealed a wide range of variablility among the 30 accessions, spanning from 0.179 to 922. According to the clustering analysis, different species T. officinale and T. coreanum, were divided into independent groups and all of the accessions could be classified into 7 categories. Especially, all of the mountain collected accessions belonged to independent groups. The study findings indicate that T. officinale and T. coreanum accessions have a high genetic diversity and accordingly carry a germ-plasm qualifying as good genetic resources for breeding.

  • This study was carried out to introduce the forest cover types of the Baekdudaegan inhabiting the number of native tree species. In order to understand the vegetation distribution characteristics of the Baekdudaegan, a vegetation survey was conducted on the major 20 mountains of the Baekdudaegan. The vegetation data were collected from 3,959 sample points by the point-centered quarter method. Each mountain was classified into 4-7 forests by using various multivariate statistical methods such as cluster analysis, indicator species analysis, multiple discriminant analysis, and species composition analysis. The forests were classified mainly according to the relative abundance of Quercus mongolica. There was a total of 111 classified forests and these forests were integrated into the following nine forest cover types using the percentage similarity index and by clustering according to vegetation type: 1) Mongolian oak, 2) Mongolian oak and other deciduous, 3) Oaks (Mixed Quercus spp.), 4) Korean red pine, 5) Korean red pine and oaks, 6) ash, 7) mixed mesophytic, 8) subalpine zone coniferous, and 9) miscellaneous forest. Forests grouped within the subalpine zone coniferous and miscellaneous classifications were characterized by similar environmental conditions and those forests that did not fit in any other category, respectively.

  • 강화학습은 제어, 스케쥴링 등 많은 응용분야에서 성공적인 학습 결과를 얻었다. 기본적인 강화학습 알고리즘인 Q-Learning, TD(λ), SARSA 등의 학습 속도의 개선과 기억장소 등의 문제를 해결하기 위해서 여러 함수 근사방법(function approximation methods)이 연구되었다. 대부분의 함수 근사 방법들은 가정을 통하여 강화학습의 일부 특성을 제거하고 사전지식과 사전처리가 필요하다. 예로 Fuzzy Q-Learning은 퍼지 변수를 정의하기 위한 사전 처리가 필요하고, 국소 최소 자승법은 훈련 예제집합을 이용한다. 본 논문에서는 온-라인 퍼지 클러스터링을 이용한 함수 근사 방법인 Fuzzy Q-Map을 제안하다. Fuzzy Q-Map은 사전 지식이 최소한으로 주어진 환경에서, 온라인으로 주어지는 상태를 거리에 따른 소속도(membership degree)를 이용하여 분류하고 행동을 예측한다. Fuzzy Q-Map과 다른 함수 근사 방법인 CMAC와 LWR을 마운틴 카 문제에 적용하여 실험 한 결과 Fuzzy Q-Map은 훈련예제를 사용하지 않는 CMAC보다는 빠르게 최고 예측율에 도달하였고, 훈련 예제를 사용한 LWR보다는 낮은 예측율을 보였다.

  • 국가 공간정보를 다양한 방법으로 서비스 중인 공간정보 오픈플랫폼은 2012년 서비스 오픈 후 2차원 지도, 3차원 지형, 3차원 건물, 시계열지도 및 각종 주제도 등 지속적으로 다양한 콘텐츠와 서비스를 추가함에 따라 사람들의 관심이 증가하고 있다. 그러나, 공간정보 오픈플랫폼 시스템은 2012년 9월과 2013년 9월에 북한관련 3차원 위성영상 및 백두산 관련 신규 서비스가 추가되면서 사용자 접속의 폭주로 서비스가 중단되는 일이 발생하는 등 시스템의 과도한 부하에 대하여 안정적이지 못한 구조를 가지고 있다. 이는, 신규 콘텐츠 추가나 사용자 접속 증가 등 필요시마다 단순히 서버나 네트워크 장비만을 증설하여 서비스를 수행하였기 때문이다. 이에 본 연구에서는 CDN, 가상화, 클러스터링 등 신기술을 분석하여 방대한 국가 공간정보를 안정적으로 서비스 할 수 있는 새로운 공간정보 오픈플랫폼 아키텍처 구성방안을 제시하고자 한다. 끝으로 본 연구결과는 대용량 공간정보와 다수 사용자를 처리할 수 있는 차세대 공간정보 오픈 플랫폼 아키텍처 수립을 위한 기초 자료로 활용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.
