  • The chromatographic separation of a methanol extract of Artemisia princes led to the isolation of two sesquiterpene lactones, artecanin (1) and canin (2), together with a flavonoid, eupatilin (3). Their structures were determined by 1D, 2D-NMR and MS data analysis. All of the isolates were evaluated for their potential to inhibit the LPS-induced production of nitric oxide in murine macrophage RAW 264.7 cells. Compounds 1 - 3 inhibited nitric oxide production with $IC_{50}$ values of 19.5, 20.4 and 25.1 ${\mu}M$, respectively.

  • The paper presents dual arm ROV manipulation using deep reinforcement learning. The purpose of this underwater manipulator is to investigate and excavate natural resources in ocean, finding lost aircraft blackboxes and for performing other extremely dangerous tasks without endangering humans. This research work emphasizes on a self-learning approach using Deep Reinforcement Learning (DRL). DRL technique allows ROV to learn the policy of performing manipulation task directly, from raw image data. Our proposed architecture maps the visual inputs (images) to control actions (output) and get reward after each action, which allows an agent to learn manipulation skill through trial and error method. We have trained our network in simulation. The raw images and rewards are directly provided by our simple Lua simulator. Our simulator achieve accuracy by considering underwater dynamic environmental conditions. Major goal of this research is to provide a smart self-learning way to achieve manipulation in highly dynamic underwater environment. The results showed that a dual robotic arm trained for a 3DOF movement successfully achieved target reaching task in a 2D space by considering real environmental factor.

  • The 3D spatial information projects have been processed and utilized in varied fields. However, the research of the 3D digital map for a role of national base map is not enough. The draft maps, which are raw data for generating 2D digital map, shows problems in generating 3D digital map. The objective of this research is to develop 3D digital map editing system for modifying and editing of 3D digital map from 2D vector and raster information such as a draft map, 2D digital map, DEM, aerial photo and so forth. This 3D digital map editing system was designed to include data structure of geometric and attribute object under provision of ISO/TC211 and OGC standard. This system was developed to implement the function of 3D stereo editing based on stereo viewing, 3D view editing based on projective, and 3D spatial operation. Using this system, 3D digital maps were able to be successfully produced from not only existing draft maps but also modified or edited draft maps and then application results were compared and analyzed.

  • In this study, the extracts of Hydrangea macrophylla (H. macrophylla) flowers were investigated for the anti-oxidative and anti-inflammatory activities, and their active constituents were identified. The anti-oxidative effects were tested by DPPH and ABTS+ assays. To evaluate anti-inflammatory activities, LPS-induced RAW264.7 cells were examined. Among the extracts, the ethyl acetate fraction showed potent radical scavenging activities and inhibition of nitric oxide (NO) production. Chromatographic purification of the extract led to isolation of the compounds; hydrangenol (1), prunin (2) and astragalin (3). The chemical structures of the constituents were elucidated based on spectroscopic data including NMR spectra, as well as comparison of the data in the literature values. Quantitative analysis by high pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC) determined hydrangenol (1) as the major constituent. Isolated compounds 1-3 decreased the NO level without causing cell toxicities. Based on these results, it was suggested that the extract from H. macrophylla flowers could be potentially applicable as an anti-oxidative and/or anti-inflammatory ingredients.

  • This study empirically analyzed the effectiveness of government financial support policies for venture enterprises in the Daejeon region, using raw data obtained from the Small and Medium Venture Business Administration's survey results from 2016 to 2021. Daejeon, considering its economic significance, has a significant proportion of venture enterprises in its economy compared to the national average, with a focus on technological development. Conducting regression analysis yielded several key findings. Firstly, loan and guarantee support is effective for improving sales and market share, while R&D support is effective for technological development. Second, R&D and loan support have the most significant impact on sales in the fourth stage (maturity), while guarantee support is most influential in the third stage. Third, in industry analysis, the coefficients representing the effects of financial support were larger across all performance indicators compared to firm level data analysis. Based on these empirical analysis results, the study proposes several policy implications as follows. First, the government should actively provide funding support to venture companies rather than leaving investments to the capital market. Second, the methods and targets of funding support should vary according to the purpose of the support. Third, it is necessary to establish a platform that connects venture companies with private investors to commercialize developed technologies. Fourth, the funding support of venture capital for technology-intensive venture companies should be expanded.

  • This paper proposed a practical method for building detection and extraction using airborne laser scanning data. The proposed method consists mainly of two processes: low and high level processes. The major distinction from the previous approaches is that we introduce a concept of pseudogrid (or binning) into raw laser scanning data to avoid the loss of information and accuracy due to interpolation as well as to define the adjacency of neighboring laser point data and to speed up the processing time. The approach begins with pseudo-grid generation, noise removal, segmentation, grouping for building detection, linearization and simplification of building boundary , and building extraction in 3D vector format. To achieve the efficient processing, each step changes the domain of input data such as point and pseudo-grid accordingly. The experimental results shows that the proposed method is promising.

  • Infrared thermography is an emerging approach to non-contact, non-intrusive, and non-destructive inspection of various solid materials such as metals, composites, and semiconductors for industrial and research interests. In this study, data processing was applied to infrared thermography measurements to detect defects in metals that were widely used in industrial fields. When analyzing experimental data from infrared thermographic testing, raw images were often not appropriate. Thus, various data analysis methods were used at the pre-processing and processing levels in data processing programs for quantitative analysis of defect detection and characterization; these increased the infrared non-destructive testing capabilities since subtle defects signature became apparent. A 3D finite element simulation was performed to verify and analyze the data obtained from both the experiment and the image processing techniques.

  • In this study, information on vegetation was collected using a point cloud through a 3-D Terrestrial Lidar Scanner, and the physical shape was analyzed by reconfiguring the object based on the refined data. Each filtering step of the raw data was optimized, and the reference volume and the estimated results using the Alpha Shape and Voxel techniques were compared. As a result of the analysis, when the volume was calculated by applying the Alpha Shape, it was overestimated than reference volume regardless of data filtering. In addition, the Voxel method to be the most similar to the reference volume after the 8th filtering, and as the filtering proceeded, it was underestimated. Therefore, when re-implementing an object using a point cloud, internal voids due to the complex shape of the target object must be considered, and it is necessary to pay attention to the filtering process for optimal data analyzed in the filtering process.
