The bio-oil produced from the fast pyrolysis of lignocellulosic biomass contains a high amount of oxygenates, causing variation in the properties of bio-oil, such as instability, high acidity, and low heating value, reducing the quality of the bio-oil. Consequently, an upgrading process should be recommended ensuring that these bio-oils are widely used as fuel sources. Catalytic fast pyrolysis has attracted a great deal of attention as a promising method for producing upgraded bio-oil from biomass feedstock. In this study, the fast pyrolysis of tulip tree was performed in a bubbling fluidized-bed reactor under different reaction temperatures, with and without catalysts, to investigate the effects of pyrolysis temperature and catalysts on product yield and bio-oil quality. The system used silica sand, ferric oxides (Fe₂O₃ and Fe₃O₄), and H-ZSM-5 as the fluidized-bed material and nitrogen as the fluidizing medium. The liquid yield reached the highest value of 49.96 wt% at 450 ℃, using Fe₂O₃ catalyst, compared to 48.45 wt% for H-ZSM-5, 47.57 wt% for Fe₃O₄ and 49.03 wt% with sand. Catalysts rejected oxygen mostly as water and produced a lower amount of CO and CO₂, but a higher amount of H₂ and hydrocarbon gases. The catalytic fast pyrolysis showed a high ratio of H₂/CO than sand as a bed material.

DHP mining association rules algorithm maintains previously independent direct hash table to reduce the sire of hash tree containing the frequency number of each candidate large itemset. It performs pruning by using the direct hash table when the hash tree is constructed. The mort large the size of direct hash table increases, the higher the effort of pruning becomes. Especially, the effect of pruning in phase 2 which generate 2-large itemsets is so high that it dominates the overall performance of DHP algorithm. So, following the speedy trends of producing VLM(Very Large Memory) systems, extreme increment of direct hash table size is being tried and one of those trials is perfect hash table in phase 2. In case of using perfect hash table in phase 2, we found that some rearrangement of DHP algorithm got about 20% performance improvement compared to simply ｜H$_2$｜ reconfigured DHP algorithm. In this paper, we examine the feasibility of perfect hash table in phase 2 and propose PHP algorithm, a rearranged DHP algorithm, which uses the characteristics of perfect hash table sufficiently, then make an analysis on the results in experimental environment.

The rapid growth of e-commerce has made both companies and customers face a new situation. Whereas companies have become to be harder to survive due to more and more competitions, the opportunity for customers to choose among more and more products has increased. So, the recommender systems that recommend suitable products to the customer have an important position in E-commerce. This research introduces collaborative filtering based recommender system which helps customers find the products they would like to purchase by producing a list of top-N recommended products. The suggested methodology is based on decision tree, product taxonomy, and association rule mining. Decision tree is used to select target customers, who have high possibility of purchasing recommended products. We applied the recommender system to a Korean department store. The methodology is evaluated with the analysis of a real department store case and is compared with other methodologies.

Since the era of the 4th industrial revolution has been ripe, the use of artificial intelligence(AI) based on massive data is beginning to be actively applied in various fields. However, as the process of analyzing forest species is carried out manually, many errors are occurring. Therefore, in this paper, about 60,000 pieces of AI learning data were automatically analyzed for pine, larch, conifer, and broadleaf trees of aerial photographs and pseudo images in the metropolitan area, and an AI model was developed to distinguish tree species. Through this, it is expected to increase in work efficiency by using the tree species division image as basic data when producing forest change detection and forest field topics.

Two fast-growing clones 65-29-19 and 66-6-8 and two less fast-growing clones 66-14-29 and 66-14-99 were compared at intensively cultured plots to identify what morphological characters are related to fast growth and high biomass yield of Populus alba ${\times}$ Populus glandulosa $F_1$. The plantations were established in the spring of 1982 and 1983 at the Seoul National University nursery in Suweon. Differences in dry matter production were found among two-year-old clones but not, among one-year-old clones. Highly significant correlations were found between total leaf area per tree and total dry weight per tree and between total branch length per tree and total dry weight per tree for two-year-old clones. This relation was more obvious during the late growing season. Morphological characters desirable for producing high biomass identified in fast-growing clones were as follows; high shoot-root ratio, high leaf surface area per tree, long leaf retention period, and many small leaves and compact crown architecture in the upper portion of true crown.

Forest medicinal resources, which constitute one of the non-timber forest products, have been regarded as healthy and highly valued products. To meet the increasing demand of the medicinal resources, it is necessary to improve the propagation methods of medicinal plants. In vitro propagation not only allows an opportunity for propagating plants in large numbers but also allows for enhancing the quality and quantity of the desired functional component of a plant by altering the growth factors, such as medium, carbon source, and plant growth regulators influence plant. There have been several studies of in vitro propagation methods, such as axillary bud culture, shooting, and embryogenesis, on Kalopanax septemlobus, Eleutherococcus sessiliflorus, Hovenia dulcis, and Schisandra chinensis in Korea between from 2000 through 2010. Furthermore, there have been attempts to proliferate callus and plantlets for producing useful natural compounds by using bioreactors. Here, we provide an account of the in vitro propagation methods of medicinal trees in Korea based on a review of several micropropagation studies.

Mucoepidermoid carcinoma arising in the tracheobronchial tree is an extremely rare tumor. Usually it remains as locally invasive neoplasm, although malignant change is described. Histologically, it is characterized by an admixture of vacuolated, mucus producing cells and sheets of epithelial cells with a cohesive pattern which resemble squamous cells. Its clinical and histopathological behaviors were reported as varying degrees of benign to extremely malignant. We had experienced two young patients with low-grade mucoepidermoid carcinoma of the right and left upper lobar bronchi. A 15-year-old man who had had intermittent hemoptysis for 1 year underwent right upper lobectomy. And the other 18-year-old man had suffered from obstructive pneumonitis for 6 months underwent left pneumonectomy. The postoperative courses were uneventful, and the bronchoscopy and chest CT which were done at 6 months later revealed no regional recurrence.

To develop a yellow pigment for a food-additive, a strain producing a water-soluble yellow pigment was isolated from phylloplane of tree leaf. The strain PY123 was identified a Bacillus sp. based on morphological and biochemical characterization such as a bacillus form, mortility, spore formation, Gram positive, and catalase production. The pigment production of the strain PY123 was increased about 3 times in patato broth containing 1% sucrose and 0.1 mM CoCl$_{2}$ than in only potato broth after incubation at 30$circ$C, for 2 days. When 0.1 mM CoCl$_{2}$, was added in potato broth containing 1% sucrose at late log phase during incubation of the strain PY123, cell growth was not inhibited, and the period at maximal pigment production of the strain PY123 was about 12hrs faster than in potato broth containing 1% sucrose and 0.1 mM CoCl$_{2}$, simultaniously.

Mulberry (Morus spp.) is an economically important tree crop being cultivated in India, China and other sericulturally important countries for its foliage to feed the silk producing insect Bombyx mori L. Genetic improvements of mulberry lag behind to the same in many other economically less important crops due to the complexity of its genetics, the breeding behavior, and the lack of basic information on factors governing important agronomic traits. In this review, the general usage and advantages of different molecular markers including isoenzymes, RFLPs, RAPDs, ISSRs, SSRs, AFLPs and SNPs are described to enlighten their applicability in mulberry genetic improvement programs. Application of DNA markers in germplasm characterization, construction of genetic linkage maps, QTL identification and in marker-assisted selection was also described along with its present status and future prospects.
