Using internet, most of students are still exposed to unreasonable commercial information and even tend to consumptive behaviors. Various programs have been mobilized to keep it with a blockade system against the noxious information. But guidance is more instructive than blockade in respect of education. Thus, the focus of this study is to induce and motivate their self-directed learning activities with internet guide contents. We develope a learning guidance material as one of the information platforms. Furthermore, we consider the availability of such learning guidance materials through interview and observation. We find that easy and meaningful internet access and utilizing environment influence the children's self-directed learning ability.

Geographical Indication (GI) has been used with the expectation to influence customer buying behavior. In this research, we empirically investigate if such relationship exists using apple price changes in Korea along with web search traffic reflecting customers' interest in GI. The experimental results indicate that the apple price of the past, apple supply and web search traffic including GI name were significant on the prediction of price change of Chungju while web search traffic of regional name and that of product were significant for Cheongsong apples with GI. In Yeongcheon with no GI, the apple price of the past turns out to be significant only. The results indicated that interests in GI can help the price prediction but the regional name itself can play the same role, if the GI product is well known in association with the region.

This paper proposes a dynamic short-term load forecasting method that utilizes a new sequential learning algorithm based on Relevance Vector Machine (RVM). The method performs general optimization of weights and hyperparameters using the current relevance vectors and newly arriving data. By doing so, the proposed algorithm is trained with the most recent data. Consequently, it extends the RVM algorithm to real-time and nonstationary learning processes. The results of application of the proposed algorithm to prediction of electrical loads indicate that its accuracy is comparable to that of existing nonparametric learning algorithms. Further, the proposed model reduces computational complexity.

Herein is described a new species of Impatiens violascens B.U. Oh & Y.Y. Kim (Balsaminaceae) discovered on Bohyeon Mountain in Yeongcheon-si, Gyeongsangbuk-do, Korea. The new species is distinct from a closely-related species, I. textorii, by having a flower half the size that of I. textorii, sharply narrowed lower sepal, one half- to one time-coiled spur, and distal lobes of elliptical type laterally united petals. The key to these two species is provided.

In the screening of fungal diversity, two strains were collected from the soil of Yeongcheon and dissected guts from the bodies of Chinese rice grasshopper (Oxya chinensis), Chinese grasshopper (Acrida cinerea), and Far eastern devil grasshopper (Oedaleus infernalis) from Daejeon in Korea. They were identified as Umbelopsis vinacea (KNU-YC-1801B) and Mucor hiemalis f. corticola (KNU-20F7, KNU-20F8, KNU-20F9). Multigene phylogenetic analyses of the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) regions, and large subunit (LSU) sequence data confirmed two unreported taxa along with their morphology. The results of molecular phylogeny firmly supported the detailed description and illustration for each taxon. As far as we know, both Umbelopsis vinacea and Mucor hiemalis f. corticola are the first reported taxa in Korea.

In this paper, a controller based on repetitive learning control is designed to control an unmanned surface vessel with nonlinear characteristics and unknown parameters. First, we define the equations of motion and error system of the unmanned vessel, and then design an repetitive learning controller composed of system error and estimated unknown parameters based on repetitive learning control and adaptive control. The stability of the unmanned vessel model controlled by the designed controller is verified through the analysis of the Lyapunov stability. Simulation shows that the error converges asymptotically to zero with semi-global result, confirming that the unmanned vessel is moving toward a given ideal path, and verifies that the controller is also feasible.

In this paper, I lay the foundation for creating a multiscale atlas that characterizes cerebrovasculature structural changes across the entire brain of a mouse in the Knife-Edge Scanning Microscopy dataset. The geometric reconstruction of the vascular filaments embedded in the volume imaging dataset provides the ability to distinguish cerebral vessels by diameter and other morphological properties across the whole mouse brain. This paper presents a means for studying local variations in the small vascular morphology that have a significant impact on the peripheral nervous system in other cerebral areas, as well as the robust and vulnerable side of the cerebrovasculature system across the large blood vessels. I expect that this foundation will prove invaluable towards data-driven, quantitative investigations into the system-level architectural layout of the cerebrovasculature and surrounding cerebral microstructures.

In recent years, nano-reinforcing materials are widely utilized in cement composites due to their unique multifunctional properties. This study incorporated multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) into the cementitious composites at ratios of 0.1%, 0.3%, and 0.5%, and investigated their influence on the flowability, mechanical strength, and hydration heat properties. The addition of MWCNTs enhanced the compressive and split tensile strengths approximately by 18-51%. In the semi-adiabatic temperature rise test, the internal hydration heat of the composites reduced by 5%, 9%, and 12% with the increase of MWCNTs in 0.1%, 0.3%, and 0.5%. This study further performed hydration heat analysis and estimated the adiabatic temperature rise, thermal stress, and thermal crack index. The internal hydration heat of the concrete decreased by 5%, 10%, and 13% with the increase of MWCNTs. The thermal stress of the concrete decreased with increase in the addition of MWCNTs, and the obtained temperature crack index was effective in controlling the thermal cracks.

Pile-supported wharves, port structures that support the upper deck, are installed on sloping ground. The sloping ground should be covered with a rubble mound or artificial blocks to protect the interior material from erosion caused by wave force. The behavior of the pile may vary during an earthquake if a rubble mound is installed on the slope. However, studies evaluating the effect of rubble mound on the pile during an earthquake are limited. Here, we performed dynamic centrifuge model tests to evaluate the dynamic behavior of piles installed in a slope reinforced with rubble mound. In the structure, some sections (single-pile, 2×2 group-pile) were selected for the experiment. The moment of the group-pile decreased by up to 26% upon installation of the rubble mound, whereas the moment of the single-pile increased by up to 41%, thus demonstrating conflicting results.

본 연구는 경북 제1의 마늘 산지인 영천지역의 마늘과 홍마늘의 특성과 생리활성을 평가하고, 이를 통해 액상스틱 가공제품을 개발하는 것이 그 주요한 목표이다. 영천지역 마늘은 난지형 마늘로 20일, 40일 숙성시킨 홍마늘의 경우 숙성이 진행됨에 따라 당/산 비율이 마늘보다 높아 관능적으로 우수하였다. 뿐만아니라 40일 숙성 홍마늘에서 가장 높은 총 폴리페놀 및 총 플라보노이드 함량을 나타내었으며, 항산화능 역시 가장 우수하였다. 마늘보다 홍마늘의 기능성이 우수하지만 지역 마늘 소비 촉진을 위해 우선적으로 일반마늘을 이용한 가공제품 개발 여구를 진행하였고 부원료로는 지역 생산량이 많은 사과, 포도를 활용하였다. 사과 농축액 첨가 제품과 포도 농축액 첨가 제품에서의 일반 성분분석 결과 2종 모두 우수한 관능성을 나타내어 제품화에 적합하였다. 항세균 및 항진균 활성이 나타나지 않았지만, 항당뇨 활성은 기대하기 어려웠다. 하지만 급성 독성을 나타내지 않은 본 제품은 항산화능에서 모두 우수한 결과를 보여 노화억제, 면역력 증강의 효과가 기대되므로 가공제품으로서의 이용성이 높다고 판단된다.
