우리에겐 익숙하고 쉽게 느껴지지만, 누군가에겐 어려운 것들이 존재한다. 예로 시각 장애인에게는 거리를 돌아다니는 것, 거리를 달린다는 것은 상당한 용기가 필요한 일이다. 경북대학교 재학 중인 시각 장애인 김경훈 학우는 자신의 유튜브 채널에 등교하는 거리에 익숙해지도록 여러 번 걸어 다니며 연습하는 모습의 영상을 올린 적이 있다. 또 다른 시각장애인은 국민 청원에 트레이닝에 대한 지원 요청을 한 적이 있다. 우리는 이런 사례들을 조사하여 거리에 나가지 않아도, 위험요소를 생각하지 않아도 할 수 있는, 그 누구도 차별 받지 않고 모두가 자연스럽게 운동에 집중할 수 있는 홈 트레이닝 시스템을 구현하였다.

L-Arabinose, a five carbon sugar, has not been considered as an important bioresource because most studies have focused on D-xylose, another type of five-carbon sugar that is prevalent as a monomeric structure of hemicellulose. In fact, L-arabinose is also an important monomer of hemicellulose, but its content is much more significant in pectin (3-22%, g/g pectin), which is considered an alternative biomass due to its low lignin content and mass production as juice-processing waste. This review presents native and engineered microorganisms that can ferment L-arabinose. Saccharomyces cerevisiae is highlighted as the most preferred engineering host for expressing a heterologous arabinose pathway for producing ethanol. Because metabolic engineering efforts have been limited so far, with this review as momentum, more attention to research is needed on the fermentation of L-arabinose as well as the utilization of pectin-rich biomass.

MPEG-I Visual group is actively working on enhancing immersive experiences with up to six degree of freedom (6DoF). In virtual space of omnidirectional 6DoF, which is defined as a case of degree of freedom providing 6DoF in a restricted area, looking at the scene from another viewpoint (another position in space) requires rendering additional viewpoints called virtual omnidirectional viewpoints. This paper presents the performance analysis on view synthesis, which is done as the exploration experiment (EE) in MPEG-I, from a set of 360 videos providing omnidirectional 6DoF in various ways with different distances, directions, and number of input views. In addition, we compared the subjective quality between synthesized images with one input view and two input views.

최근 카메라 영상을 이용한 제스처 인식 관련 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 카메라 영상을 이용한 제스처 인식에서 많이 사용되는 학습 알고리즘에는 확률 그래프 모델인 HMM과 CRF 등이 있다. 이 학습 알고리즘들은 다차원의 연속된 실수 데이터를 가지고 모델을 학습하면 계산량이 많아진다. 본 논문에서는 팔 관절 위치 데이터를 k-평균 군집화 과정을 거쳐 1차원의 시계열 데이터로 변환 후, 제스처별로 HMM 모델을 학습하는 방법을 제안한다. 키넥트 센서를 통해 얻은 팔 관절 위치 데이터에 k-평균 군집화를 적용하여 1차원 시계열 데이터를 생성하고, 이를 HMM의 학습 및 인식에 사용한다. 본 논문에서 제안하는 방법의 성능을 분석하기 위하여, 다른 시계열 학습 알고리즘인 AP+DTW를 이용한 방법과의 비교 실험을 포함해 다양한 실험들을 수행하였다.

Pseudomonas aeruginosa (P. aeruginosa) is a well-known Gramnegative opportunistic pathogen. Neutrophils play key roles in mediating host defense against P. aeruginosa infection. In this study, we identified a metabolite derived from P. aeruginosa that regulates neutrophil activities. Using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry, a markedly increased level of 2-undecanone was identified in the peritoneal fluid of P. aeruginosa-infected mice. 2-Undecanone elicited the activation of neutrophils in a G_αi-phospholipase C pathway. However, 2-undecanone strongly inhibited responses to lipopolysaccharide and bactericidal activity of neutrophils against P. aeruginosa by inducing apoptosis. Our results demonstrate that 2-undecanone from P. aeruginosa limits the innate defense activity of neutrophils, suggesting that the production of inhibitory metabolites is a strategy of P. aeruginosa for escaping the host immune system.

Image-based 3D object detection is one of the important and difficult problems in autonomous driving and robotics, and aims to find and represent the location, dimension and orientation of the object of interest. It generates three dimensional (3D) bounding boxes with only 2D images obtained from cameras, so there is no need for devices that provide accurate depth information such as LiDAR or Radar. Image-based methods can be divided into three main categories: monocular, stereo, and multi-view 3D object detection. In this paper, we investigate the recent state-of-the-art models of the above three categories. In the multi-view 3D object detection, which appeared together with the release of the new benchmark datasets, NuScenes and Waymo, we discuss the differences from the existing monocular and stereo methods. Also, we analyze their performance and discuss the advantages and disadvantages of them. Finally, we conclude the remaining challenges and a future direction in this field.

It is challenging to diagnose metastatic tumors whose cellular morphology is different from the primary. We characterized canine primary pulmonary adenocarcinoma (PAC) and its xenografted tumors by histological and immunohistochemical analyses for critical diagnostic and cancer stem cell (CSC) markers. To generate a tumor xenograft model, we subsequently transplanted the tissue pieces from the PAC into athymic nude mice. Immunohistochemical examination was performed for diagnostic (TTF-1, Napsin A, and SP-A) and CSC markers (CD44 and CD133). The use of CSC markers together with diagnostic markers can improve the detection and diagnosis of canine primary and metastatic adenocarcinomas.

In this study, the structural characteristics of sericin recovered from wastewater released from the silk textile industry (Plant sericin) were comparatively analyzed with those of sericin extracted from a silkworm cocoon produced in a laboratory (Lab sericin). To prepare Plant sericin, ethanol was added to wastewater (i.e., a sericin aqueous solution) after the degumming process to remove nonprotein materials, affording a sericin precipitate. To prepare Lab sericin, nonprotein materials were removed from a silkworm cocoon and sericin was subsequently extracted from the cocoon. Lab sericin and Plant sericin exhibited similar solution viscosities, gel strengths, and crystallinity indices, indicative of the similar molecular weights (MWs) of the two sericin samples. In the case of sericin powder, Plant sericin was more crystalline than Lab sericin due to its treatment with ethanol. The findings of this study revealed that sericin recovered from industrial wastewater can be used equally as its MW is similar to that of sericin obtained through laboratory-scale extraction.
