  • The cultured meat industry is continuously evolving due to the collective efforts of cultured meat companies and academics worldwide. Though still technologically limited, recent reports of regulatory approvals for cultured meat companies have initiated the standards-based approach towards cultured meat production. Incidents of deception in the meat industry call for fool-proof authentication methods to ensure consumer safety, product quality, and traceability. The cultured meat industry is not exempt from the threats of food fraud. Meat authentication techniques based on DNA, protein, and metabolite fingerprints of animal meat species needs to be evaluated for their applicability to cultured meat. Technique-based categorization of cultured meat products could ease the identification of appropriate authentication methods. The combination of methods with high sensitivity and specificity is key to increasing the accuracy and precision of meat authentication. The identification of markers (both physical and biochemical) to differentiate conventional meat from cultured meat needs to be established to ensure overall product traceability. The current review briefly discusses some areas in the cultured meat industry that are vulnerable to food fraud. Specifically, it targets the current meat and meat product authentication tests to emphasize the need for ensuring the traceability of cultured meat.

  • The bony notch on the inferior border of the mandible, anterior to the attachment of the masseter muscle, where the facial vessels commonly pass, has been called different names in the literature, e.g., premasseteric notch, antegonial notch, and notch for the facial vessels. Interestingly, various disciplines have leaned toward different names for this notch. Therefore, to aid in consistent communication among professionals, the present study aimed to analyze usage of these varied terms and make recommendations for the best terminology. Based on the adjacent anatomical structures used to name this notch, three groups were analyzed in this study, a group using masseter in the term, a group using gonion in the term, and a group using facial vessels in the term. A literature search found that the group using gonion in the term was found most in the literature. The orthodontics field used gonion in the term the most (29.0%: 31/107) followed by the oral and maxillofacial surgery field (14.0%: 15/107), the plastic surgery field (4.7%: 5/107), and the anatomy field (3.7%: 4/107). The dental field used gonion in this term the most (43.9%: 47/107) and the medical field used facial vessels in the term the most (33.3%: 6/18). Based on these results, the use of gonial terms for this notch seems to be preferred.

  • Background: Recently, there has been a call to improve the holistic welfare of dependent contractors (DCs). Thus, our study examined the relationship between DCs and mental health symptoms and how this relationship was modified by age, sex, and income status of workers. Methods: A total of 27,980 workers from the Fifth Korean Working Conditions Survey are included in our study. The participants who reported having depression or anxiety over the last 12 months are defined those who had mental health symptoms. We performed exact matching for age group and sex, followed by conditional logistic regression with survey weights. Finally, stratified analyses by age, sex and income level were conducted. Results: DCs were found to be at increased risk of depression/anxiety compared to other workers. The odds ratio (OR) is 1.52 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.06-2.17). In the stratified analyses, vulnerable groups were middle-aged (OR [95% CI]: 1.68 [1.10-2.54]), female (OR [95% CI]: 1.85 [1.20-2.84]), and low-income (OR [95% CI]: 3.18 [1.77-5.73]) workers. Conclusions: Our study's results reinforce those of other studies that show that DCs are at greater risk of experiencing mental health issues than other workers and that and this risk is greater for middle-aged, female, and low-income workers. These results suggest that appropriate policy efforts should be made to improve the psychological well-being of DCs.

  • To make a long story short I made up my mind to experiment with a multimedia approach to my classroom presentations two years ago because my ways of giving instructions bored the pants off me as well as my students. My favorite ways used to be sometimes referred to as classical or traditional ones, heavily dependent on the three elements: teacher's mouth, books, and chalk. Some call it the 'MBC method'. To top it off, I tried audio-visuals such as tape recorders, cassette players, VTR, pictures, and you name it, that could help improve my teaching method. And yet I have been unhappy about the results by a trial and error approach. I was determined to look for a better way that would ensure my satisfaction in the first place. What really turned me on was a multimedia CD ROM title, ELLIS (English Language Learning Instructional Systems) developed by Dr. Frank Otto. This is an integrated system of learning English based on advanced computer technology. Inspired by the utility and potential of such a multimedia system for regular classroom or lab instructions, I designed a simple but practical multimedia language learning laboratory in 1994 for the first time in Korea(perhaps for the first time in the world). It was high time that the conventional type of language laboratory(audio-passive) at Hahnnam be replaced because of wear and tear. Prior to this development, in 1991, I put a first CALL(Computer Assisted Language Learning) laboratory equipped with 35 personal computers(286), where students were encouraged to practise English typing, word processing and study English grammar, English vocabulary, and English composition. The first multimedia language learning laboratory was composed of 1) a multimedia personal computer(486DX2 then, now 586), 2) VGA multipliers that enable simultaneous viewing of the screen at control of the instructor, 3) an amplifIer, 4) loud speakers, 5)student monitors, 6) student tables to seat three students(a monitor for two students is more realistic, though), 7) student chairs, 8) an instructor table, and 9) cables. It was augmented later with an Internet hookup. The beauty of this type of multimedia language learning laboratory is the economy of furnishing and maintaining it. There is no need of darkening the facilities, which is a must when an LCD/beam projector is preferred in the laboratory. It is headset free, which proved to make students exasperated when worn more than- twenty minutes. In the previous semester I taught three different subjects: Freshman English Lab, English Phonetics, and Listening Comprehension Intermediate. I used CD ROM titles like ELLIS, Master Pronunciation, English Tripple Play Plus, English Arcade, Living Books, Q-Steps, English Discoveries, Compton's Encyclopedia. On the other hand, I managed to put all teaching materials into PowerPoint, where letters, photo, graphic, animation, audio, and video files are orderly stored in terms of slides. It takes time for me to prepare my teaching materials via PowerPoint, but it is a wonderful tool for the sake of presentations. And it is worth trying as long as I can entertain my students in such a way. Once everything is put into the computer, I feel relaxed and a bit excited watching my students enjoy my presentations. It appears to be great fun for students because they have never experienced this type of instruction. This is how I freed myself from having to manipulate a cassette tape player, VTR, and write on the board. The student monitors in front of them seem to help them concentrate on what they see, combined with what they hear. All I have to do is to simply click a mouse to give presentations and explanations, when necessary. I use a remote mouse, which prevents me from sitting at the instructor table. Instead, I can walk around in the room and enjoy freer interactions with students. Using this instrument, I can also have my students participate in the presentation. In particular, I invite my students to manipulate the computer using the remote mouse from the student's seat not from the instructor's seat. Every student appears to be fascinated with my multimedia approach to English teaching because of its unique nature as a new teaching tool as we face the 21st century. They all agree that the multimedia way is an interesting and fascinating way of learning to satisfy their needs. Above all, it helps lighten their drudgery in the classroom. They feel other subjects taught by other teachers should be treated in the same fashion. A multimedia approach to education is impossible without the advent of hi-tech computers, of which multi functions are integrated into a unified system, i.e., a personal computer. If you have computer-phobia, make quick friends with it; the sooner, the better. It can be a wonderful assistant to you. It is the Internet that I pay close attention to in conjunction with the multimedia approach to English education. Via e-mail system, I encourage my students to write to me in English. I encourage them to enjoy chatting with people all over the world. I also encourage them to visit the sites where they offer study courses in English conversation, vocabulary, idiomatic expressions, reading, and writing. I help them search any subject they want to via World Wide Web. Some day in the near future it will be the hub of learning for everybody. It will eventually free students from books, teachers, libraries, classrooms, and boredom. I will keep exploring better ways to give satisfying instructions to my students who deserve my entertainment.

  • 그에게 쏟아진 거의 만장일치에 가까운 찬사에도 불구하고, 연상호의 애니메이션 작품세계에 대한 본격적인 논의는 아직 제대로 된 형태를 갖추지 못하고 있다. 산발적인 몇몇 리뷰들을 제외하면 진지한 접근의 시도를 찾아보기 힘든 상황인 것이다. 이 깊은 골을 메우려는 시도로서 본 논문은 그의 작품들이 의미 있는 전체(oeuvre)로 간주되어야 한다고 주장한다. 그의 두 장편 애니메이션인 <돼지의 왕>과 <사이비>에 집중하되, 그들이 그의 단편 작품들과 맺는 미묘한 관계들에도 주목하면서, 나는 그의 작품이 현대 한국사회와의 관계 속에서 얼마나 '급진적'인지, 혹은- radical이라는 말의 어원 그대로 '뿌리'에 닿는다는 의미에서- '근원적'인 지를 보여줄 것이다. 두 작품 간의 연속성을 우회하거나 제대로 논의하지 않는 일반적인 독해들과 달리, 나는 그 둘이 주목할 만한 차이들에도 불구하고 공명하는 독특한 방식에 주목하려 한다. 단도직입적으로 말해 서사의 중심에서 그의 작품들은 '연대(solidarity)'의 문제, 보다 정확하게 말해 '비참한 이들(abjected people) 간의 연대의 결핍/과잉'이라는 문제를 중심으로 회전한다. 나아가, 어쩌면 더욱 중요하게도, 나는 어쩌면 그저 주제적 차원이라 할 수 있을 이러한 문제들이 그의 애니메이션 작품들 속에서, 내가 '바닥없는 표면/표면의 심연(abyssal surface)'이라 이름붙인 형식적 차원으로 표면화되고 있는 지를 드러낼 것이다. 서사는 훌륭하나 '애니메이션' 작품으로서의 정체성을 인정하기는 어렵다는 식의, 상찬을 가장한 비난- 혹은 오독-과 달리, 나는 연상호의 작품들이 '비참한 이들' 간에 드러나는 신뢰의 결핍/과잉을 애니메이션으로서, 즉 그 뒤에 서로에 대한 '바닥없는 불신/신뢰'가 숨어있는 불길하고 피상적인 표면을 육화한다고 주장할 것이다. 연상호의 애니메이션은 정확하게 이런 중의적인 의미에서, 즉 주제적인 차원에서의 사회의 뿌리와 표현 양식 차원에서의 애니메이션의 근본을 건드린다는 이중적인 의미에서 근본적(radical)이다.

  • 많은 양의 대역폭을 사용하는 실시간 멀티미디어 응용들은 일정 수준의 서비스 품질을 보장받기 위해 필요한 자원을 사전에 예약하고 이를 사용할 수 있어야 한다. 자원의 사전 예약을 위해서는 해당 자원에 대한 사용 기간의 명시와 이를 이용해 자원을 사전에 예약하고 할당하는 자원 관리자가 필요하다. 따라서 자원의 사용 기간에 관계없이 예약 요청 발생시점에서 가용 자원의 양만을 고려하는 전통적인 자원 할당 방식과는 달리 사전 예약을 제공하는 자원 관리자는 사전에 예약된 자원과 사용 기간을 명시하지 않는 즉석 예약을 위해 할당된 자원이 서로충돌하지 않도록 예약 요청들을 처리해야 한다. 일반적으로 자원 예약의 충돌은 예약 형태에 따라 할당 자원을 분리함으로써 해결할 수 있지만 이는 자원의 낭비를 초래하게 된다. 본 논문은 즉석 예약과 사전 예약 요청을 위해 준비된 자원 공간을 변동하는 자원 경계를 이용해 효율적으로 공유하는 자원 관리 방식을 제안한다. 제안하는 자원 관리 방식은 네트워크 비용 함수를 이용해 자원 간 경계를 설정하고, 예약 자원의 충돌에 따라 비용 함수의 가중치 변수를 조정해 경계를 변화시킴으로써 공유 자원을 효과적으로 할당하고 관리한다. 또한, 사용자 효용 함수의 정의를 통해 예약된 자원을 사용하는 서비스의 품질로부터 사용자가 얻는 효용을 정량적으로 측정하며, 자원의 사전 예약이 사용자 효용 및 전체 자원 활용에 미치는 영향을 고찰한다. 네트워크 시뮬레이터(NS-2)를 이용한 실험은 제안한 자원 관리 방식이 자원 공간의 고정 분할과 같은 방식과 비교해 높은 자원 활용율과 더불어 안정적인 서비스 품질을 제공할 수 있음을 보여준다.

  • Many States such as Arizona, Texas, New Mexico, Colorado, California, New Mexico, Florida were obtained either from Spanish Empire or from Mexico. In 1848 due to the Guadalupe-Hidalgo treaty America could obtain half of the original territory of Mexico. American identity cannot be understood without the history of American expansionism further consolidated by the Spanish-American War in 1898, which brought other ex-Spanish colonies such as Guam, Puerto Rico, the Philippines to the US. The US's interest in these territories dates back to the Monroe doctrine in 1823 when Monroe "declared the Americas off-limits to any new European colonization." America justifies their expansion based on the notion of Manifest Destiny which was created by O'Sullivan at the hight of American fever to annex Texas to US. The intent of this paper is to study how Anglo-Saxon and Latin Culture clashed against each other especially right before and after the Spanish-American War. In this study the American hero, Theodore Roosevelt and Latin American hero, $Jos{\acute{e}}$ Martí will be compared, though they did not meet each other during the Spanish-American war due to Marti's early death in 1895 at the battle for the Cuba Libre. Their comparison is significant in that the former represents the American expansionist spirit and the latter the spirit of Anti-imperialism and Anti-Anglocentrism. Along with the concept of Manifest Destiny of America, 'American exceptionalism' is also mentioned which motivates U.S. to expand further even after the Spanish-American war in the form of 'informal imperialism' characterized by 'gunboat politics'of the US. These discussions will draw attention to how recent theorists such as Bryce Traister criticizes the Border Theory represented by $Jos{\acute{e}}$ David Saldívar. Here the Border Theory is criticized to repeat the discourse of the globalized capitalism which prefers the weak state and the transnational aspects by focusing on the in-betweenness of the border. In the end the paper will focus on how the Border theory as represented by Saldivar is political enough and sets up a resistant example against American expansionism of today in its focus on the call for pan-American and pluri-versal subjectivity of the borderlands. This point will be supported by a discussion of how Saldivar's view is confirmed by Walter Mignolo who advocates the "bottom up" resistance of the indigenous people of Chiapas and other social forums such as World Social Forum and the Social Forum of the Americas derived from the Zapatistas' movement whose motto is "A World in which many world co-exist."

  • 협업 필터링(Collaborative Filtering)은 유용성과 정교성 면에서 가장 성공적인 추천 알고리즘으로 평가받으며 산업계나 학계에서 많이 활용 및 연구되고 있지만, 기본적으로 사용자들이 평가한 점수에만 기반하여 추천결과를 생성하는 한계점이 있다. 이에 본 연구는 사용자가 상품을 구매할 때 자신이 신뢰하는 타인의 추천을 더 적극적으로 수용할 것이라는 점에 착안하여, 사용자의 평점 외에 사용자 간 신뢰관계를 소셜네트워크분석으로 분석한 결과를 추가로 반영하는 추천 알고리즘들을 제안하였다. 구체적으로 본 연구에서는 소셜네트워크분석에서 네트워크 내의 중심적 위치를 나타내는 척도인 내향 및 외향 중심성을 활용하여 사용자 간 유사도를 산출하는 알고리즘들과 사용자 신뢰 네트워크를 탐색하여 추천 대상이 되는 사용자가 직접 간접적으로 신뢰하는 사용자의 평가점수를 보다 높게 반영하는 알고리즘을 제안한 뒤 그 성능을 비교해 보았다. 실제 데이터에 적용하여 분석한 결과, 사용자 신뢰 네트워크의 내향 중심성 지수를 조건 없이 적용한 경우에는 오히려 정확도의 감소만을 야기하는 것으로 나타났고, 일정 임계치 이상의 외향 중심성을 갖는 사용자에 한해 내향 중심성 지수를 고려한 추천 알고리즘은 전통적인 협업 필터링에 비해 약간의 정확도 개선이 이루어짐을 확인할 수 있었다. 아울러, 사용자 신뢰 네트워크를 기반으로 탐색하는 알고리즘이 가장 우수한 성능을 보이는 것을 알 수 있었으며, 전통적인 협업 필터링과 비교해서도 통계적으로 유의한 수준의 정확도의 개선이 이루어짐을 확인할 수 있었다.
