The traditional concept of ginseng quality was investigated in relation to historical experiences. traditional quality measure and mordern analytical method. The traditional concept appears to be based on the original Korean thought of oneness in life and universe. The outside appearance such as shape and size in traditional quality measure includes the inside quality. Since certain shape and size define specific tissues. cells and biologically active substances in cells the traditional measure will he a map for analytical method to find active principles. Traditional method suggests that the balance among biologically active compounds seems to he more important than the large amount of one active compound and that the mode of active compounds in ginseng for the homeostasis of human body is the multicompound to multitarget system. Traditional method strongly suggests the importance of nitrogen compounds. especially soluble protein and heat stable protein for the balance of active principles since nitrogen compounds are more abundant in the central part (xylem-pith) that grows faster than the outer part (cortex-epidermis). The balance of physiologically active principles appeares to be meaningful in relation to the difference in traditional use of Panax species.

A passive containment cooling system (PCCS) has been developed as advanced safety feature for innovative power reactor (iPOWER). Passive systems are inherently less stable than active systems and the PCCS encountered the flashing-induced instability previously identified. The objective of this study is to develop stability maps for flashing-induced instability using MARS (Multi-dimensional Analysis of Reactor Safety) code. Firstly, we conducted a series of sensitivity analysis to see the effects of time step size, nodalization, and alternative MARS user options on the onset of flashing-induced instability. The riser nodalization strongly affects the prediction of flashing in a long riser of the PCCS, while time step size and alternative user options do not. Based on the sensitivity analysis, a standard input and an analysis methodology were set up to develop the stability maps of PCCS. We found out that the calculated equilibrium quality at the exit of the riser as a stability boundary above 5 kW/㎡ was approximately 1.2%, which was in good agreement with Furuya's results. However, in case of a very low heat flux condition, the onset of instability occurred at the lower equilibrium quality. In addition, it was confirmed that inlet throttling reduces the unstable region.

The analysis of maritime traffic refers to the processes that are used to analyze the environmental characteristics of the target area and, based on this analysis, predict the traffic pattern of the vessels. In recent years, maritime traffic analysis has become significant with increase maritime traffic volume and expansion of VTS coverage area. In addition, maritime traffic analysis is also applicable in the safety assessment of port facilities and the VTS (Vessel Traffic Service). In this paper, we propose a method to analyze the vessels' traffic pattern by using the heat map and the centroid method. This method is efficient for the analysis of the vessel trajectory data where spatial characteristics change with time. In the experiments, the traffic density and centroid by time have were analyzed. Trajectory data collected at Mokpo harbor was adopted. Finally, we reviewed the experimental results to verify the feasibility of the proposed method as a maritime traffic analysis method.

Recently, a variety of IoT data is collected by attaching geosensors to many vehicles that are on the road. IoT data basically has time and space information and is composed of various data such as temperature, humidity, fine dust, Co2, etc. Although a certain sensor data can be retrieved using time, latitude and longitude, which are keys to the IoT data, advanced search engines for IoT data to handle high-level user queries are still limited. There is also a problem with searching large amounts of IoT data without generating indexes, which wastes a great deal of time through sequential scans. In this paper, we propose a unified spatial index model that handles both grid and trajectory queries using a cell-based space-filling curve method. also it presents a visualization method that helps user grasp intuitively. The Trajectory query is to aggregate the traffic of the trajectory cells passed by taxi on the road searched by the user. The grid query is to find the cells on the road searched by the user and to aggregate the fine dust. Based on the generated spatial index, the user interface quickly summarizes the trajectory and grid queries for specific road and all roads, and proposes a Web-based prototype system that can be analyzed intuitively through road and heat map visualization.

Saponarin found in young barley sprouts has a variety of beneficial biological and pharmacological properties, including antioxidant, hypoglycemic, antimicrobial, and hepatoprotective activities. Our previous work demonstrated that saponarin content was correlated with the expression levels of three biosynthetic pathway genes [chalcone synthase (HvCHS1), chalcone isomerase (HvCHI), and UDP-Glc:isovitexin 7-O-glucosyltransferase (HvOGT1)] in young barley seedlings under various abiotic stress conditions. In this study, we investigated the saponarin content and expression levels of three saponarin biosynthetic pathway genes in hulled and hulless domestic barley cultivars. In the early developmental stages, some hulled barley cultivars (Kunalbori1 and Heukdahyang) had much higher saponarin contents than did the hulless barley cultivars. An RNA expression analysis showed that in most barley cultivars, decreased saponarin content correlated with reduced expression of HvCHS1 and HvCHI, but not HvOGT1. Heat map analysis revealed both specific increases in HvCHS1 expression in certain hulled and hulless barley cultivars, as well as general changes that occurred during the different developmental stages of each barley cultivar. In summary, our results provide a molecular genetic basis for the metabolic engineering of barley plants to enhance their saponarin content.

Purpose: Social influence has a decisive role in shaping a person's cognition and behavior. Chinese face consciousness, including moral component, is an important part of Chinese traditional culture, which influences people to implement moral behavior. With both eye-tracking technology and traditional questionnaire, this research aims to explore people's moral psychology and the psychological processing mechanisms of Chinese face consciousness, as well as the impact of Chinese face consciousness on the preference for the ecological product. Method and Data: 75 college and MBA students' eye movement data were collected when they read different kinds of moral materials, as well as data from the subsequent questionnaires. To test the hypothesis, ANOVA analysis and Heat Map analysis were performed. Besides, the PROCESS of bootstrap was used to test mediation effect. Findings: The results reveal that: 1. Compared to the moral-situation reading, when subjects read immoral situations, they need more processing time due to the moral dissonance and cognitive load. 2. Compared to the control condition, when threatened moral self is primed, subjects prefer to choose ecological product. 3. Protective face orientation is the mediator between threatened moral self and preference to ecological product. Key Contributions: First, this study broadens the use of eye-tracking technology in marketing and demonstrates a better understanding of the relationship between morality and consumer behavior in a more scientific way. Second, this study not only distinguishes the meanings between "protective face orientation" and "acquisitive face orientation", but also innovatively validates that when moral self is threatened, consumers tend to choose ecological product as moral compensation in order to protect their face. It can shed light on the promotion of ecological product in practical applications.

The Pacific abalone, Haliotis discus hannai, is a highly valued and industrially important aquaculture species with growing demands of the expanding abalone aquaculture industry. To explore the feasibility of using the brown alga, Sargassum horneri, as a potential substitute for abalone feed, it is important to identify the feed preference and attractant effect of S. horneri on Pacific abalone. Our experiments indicated that the feeding-associated movement of abalone could be detected using a video tracking system under indirect illumination with dim red light. To further analyze the attraction potentials of various test materials, preference analysis was performed using Avicel-coated glass plates with ground powders of various seaweeds (e.g., S. horneri, Saccharina japonica, and Undaria pinnatifida) and commercial abalone feed, together with coffee waste. Heat map analysis indicated greater attraction by the kelp S. japonica than by S. horneri and commercial feed, which showed similar preference levels. Feeding preference based on the area of Avicel eaten by abalone showed a significant preference for U. pinnatifida over S. horneri (feeding area: 68.6 ± 20.1% vs. 37.5 ± 22.4%, p < 0.05). Additionally, the feeding area was significantly greater for plates with S. japonica than for plates with S. horneri (44.0 ± 16.6% vs. 22.6 ± 15.4%, p < 0.05). There was no significant difference in feeding area between commercial feed and S. horneri (31.7 ± 11.6% vs. 31.6 ± 20.2%, p > 0.05). The methanol extracts attracted abalone in the following order: U. pinnatifida > S. horneri > S. japonica > commercial feed > coffee waste. To determine the attractive effects of the components of methanol extracts, mixtures of methanol extracts of commercial feed with increasing amounts of S. horneri were examined. The results showed a significant increase in feeding preference upon addition of S. horneri up to 50% and 75%, suggesting its potential for use as an appetite-enhancing feed additive. This study identified conditions that can be successfully used to monitor the movement of Pacific abalone; the results of preference analysis confirmed that abalone exhibited similar attraction and feeding preference for S. horneri, compared with commercial feed.

토양수분은 증발산, 유출, 침투 등 물수지 요소들과 밀접한 연관이 있는 주요한 변수 중에 하나이다. 토양수분의 정도는 토양의 특성, 토지이용 형태, 기상 상태 등에 따라 공간적으로 상이하며, 특히 기상 상태에 따라 시간적 변동성을 보이고 있다. 기존 토양수분 측정은 토양시료 채취를 통한 실내 실험 측정과 측정 장비를 통한 현장 조사 방법이 있으나 시간적, 경제적 한계점이 있으며, 원격탐사 기법은 공간적으로 넓은 범위를 포함하지만 시간 해상도가 낮은 단점이 있다. 또한, 모델링을 통한 토양수분 예측 기술은 전문적인 지식이 요구되며, 복잡한 입력자료의 구축이 요구된다. 최근 머신러닝 기법은 수많은 자료 학습을 통해 사용자가 원하는 출력값을 도출하는데 널리 활용되고 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 토양수분과 연관된 다양한 기상 인자들(강수량, 풍속, 습도 등)을 활용하여 머신러닝기법의 반복학습을 통한 토양수분의 예측 가능성을 분석하고자 한다. 이를 위해 시공간적으로 토양수분 실측 자료가 잘 구축되어 있는 청미천과 설마천 유역을 대상으로 머신러닝 기법을 적용하였다. 두 대상지에서 2008년~2012년 수문자료를 확보하였으며, 기상자료는 기상자료개방포털과 WAMIS를 통해 자료를 확보하였다. 토양수분 자료와 기상자료를 머신러닝 알고리즘을 통해 학습하고 2012년 기상 자료를 바탕으로 토양수분을 예측하였다. 사용되는 머신러닝 기법은 의사결정 나무(Decision Tree), 신경망(Multi Layer Perceptron, MLP), K-최근접 이웃(K-Nearest Neighbors, KNN), 서포트 벡터 머신(Support Vector Machine, SVM), 랜덤 포레스트(Random Forest), 그래디언트 부스팅 (Gradient Boosting)이다. 토양수분과 기상인자 간의 상관관계를 분석하기 위해 히트맵(Heat Map)을 이용하였다. 히트맵 분석 결과 토양수분의 시간적 변동은 다양한 기상 자료 중 강수량과 상대습도가 가장 큰 영향력을 보여주었다. 또한 다양한 기상 인자 기반 머신러닝 기법 적용 결과에서는 두 지역 모두 신경망(MLP) 기법을 제외한 모든 기법이 전반적으로 실측값과 유사한 형태를 보였으며 비교 그래프에서도 실측값과 예측 값이 유사한 추세를 나타냈다. 따라서 상관관계있는 과거 기상자료를 통해 머신러닝 기법 기반 토양수분의 시간적 변동 예측이 가능할 것으로 판단된다.

In the learned machine learning, the performance of machine learning degrades at the same time as drift occurs in terms of learning models and learning data over time. As a solution to this problem, I would like to propose the concept and evaluation method of ML drift to determine the re-learning period of machine learning. An XAI test and an XAI test of an apple image were performed according to strawberry and clarity. In the case of strawberries, the change in the XAI analysis of ML models according to the clarity value was insignificant, and in the case of XAI of apple image, apples normally classified objects and heat map areas, but in the case of apple flowers and buds, the results were insignificant compared to strawberries and apples. This is expected to be caused by the lack of learning images of apple flowers and buds, and more apple flowers and buds will be studied and tested in the future.

The Songji lagoon is brackish environment with a mixture of saline and fresh water, and the interaction of groundwater-lagoon water creates a physicochemical gradient. Although some studies have been conducted on the hydrological and geochemical characteristics of the Songji lagoon, microbial ecological studies have not yet been conducted. In this study, we investigated the effect of groundwater and surface water interaction on water quality as well as microbial community changes in the Songji Lagoon using 16S rRNA gene sequencing. Hydrochemical analyses show that samples were classified as 5 hydrochemical facies (HF) and hydrochemical facies evolution (HFE) revealed the intrusion phase was more dominant (57.9%) than the freshening phase (42.1%). Higher microbial diversity was found in freshwater in comparison to saline water samples. The microbial community at the phylum level shows the most dominance of Proteobacteria with an average of 37.3%, followed by Bacteroidota, Actinobacteria, and Patescibacteria. Heat map analyses of the top 18 genera showed that samples were clustered into 5 groups based on type, and Pseudoalteromonas could be used potential indicator for seawater intrusion.
