This study aimed at investigating the effects of grouping participants in pairs according to their relative vocabulary proficiency on the incidental improvement of vocabulary knowledge. Forty six university students were divided into three groups (high-high(n=14), high-low(n=18), or low-low(n=14)) and took part in the study. They performed three vocabulary activities in pairs as extra-class works. Data were collected from one receptive vocabulary knowledge test scores before treatment and two posttest scores after treatment. The results showed that, unlike former study results, HL dyads acquired more vocabulary receptively and productively than HH or LL dyads did, which demonstrated that collaborative pair activity was conducive to the growth of vocabulary knowledge. Furthermore, not only higher proficiency participants in HL pairs made greater vocabulary gains than participants in HH pairs did but also lower proficiency participants gained more vocabulary than participants in LL pairs did. Based on these results, we discussed pedagogical implications.

This paper proposes a method for measuring document similarity between two documents. One of the most significant ideas of the method is to estimate the degree of similarity between two documents based on the frequencies of terms and term-pair, existing in both the two documents. In contrast to conventional methods which takes only one feature into account, the proposed method considers several features at the same time and meatures the similarity using a neural network. To prove the superiority of our method, two experiments have been conducted. One is to verify whether the two input documents are from the same document or not. The other is a problem of information retrieval with a document as the query against a large number of documents. In both the two experiments, the proposed method shows higher accuracy than two conventional methods, Cosine similarity measurement and a term-pair method.

The risk of high power electromagnetic(HPEM) pulse exposure to the devices used in digital control system such as PLC(programmable logic controller) and communication cable is increasing. In this paper, two different frequency ranges HPEMs were exposed to those control systems to assess the each vulnerability. The vulnerability of the EUTs exposed from HPEM were analyzed and compared with a variation of distances and source power. As the EUTs were exposed to higher level of HPEM, the voltage and communication waveform of the control system had shown a distorted response. And the unshielded twisted pair(UTP) cable connected to the EUTs showed operation failures with induced voltage. However, the foiled twisted pair(FTP) cable shielded the connected device efficiently from the HPEM exposure. Therefore, the necessity of the protection measures against the vulnerability of HPEM exposure for the digital control system used in power facilities and industrial site were verified.

For the plant regeneration of soybean (Glycine me L. Merr.), the shoot formation rate, optimal medium and tissue conditions were examined using Korean soybean cultivars. Among the parts of seedling, a node that includes one cotyledon showed the highest shoot formation rate among other tissues. Half-strength B5 medium was more efficient than full strength medium. Formation rates of pair shoots (1 to 2 shooting) were higher in the when benzyl adenine was supplemented. The formation rates of multiple shoots, that is, 4 to 5 in shooting, were high when thidiazuron was supplemented. Multiple shoot was de novo formed in cutting side of cotyledonary node. The effective concentration of thidiazuron for shoot induction treatment was 2 mg/L. Among the 27 cultivars, multiple shoot formation rates were high in the 11 cultivars including 'Heugcheongkong, and pair shoot formation rates were high in the 16 cultivars including 'Malikong'.

In this paper, we propose a pupil detection method using PCA(principal component analysis) and Hough transform. To reduce error to detect eyebrows as pupil, eyebrows are detected using projection function in eye region and eye region is set to not include the eyebrows. In the eye region, pupil candidates are detected using rank order filter. False candidates are removed by using symmetry. The pupil candidates are grouped into pairs based on geometric constraints. A similarity measure is obtained for two eye of each pair using PCA and hough transform, we select a pair with the smallest similarity measure as final two pupils. The experiments have been performed for 1000 images of the BioID face database. The results show that it achieves the higher detection rate than existing method.

We propose new reversible watermarking method for images. Being reversibility, original image and watermarked message should be recovered exactly. We propose different technique for hiding data to pairs. We use new type of histogram (pair histogram), which shows frequencies of each pair in image. We use histogram shift method for data embedding to pairs. We also propose improved version of method which allow hiding data with good performance for high capacities. This algorithm has better result compare to Tian's difference expansion method based on the Haar wavelet decomposition. For proposed algorithm capacity is higher under same PSNR.

In this paper, a thermodynamic analysis was performed to provide design data for a double-effect absorption heating system with water-LiBr-LiSCN mixture which utilizes solar energy as evaporator heat source. In addition, a comparative study of the water-LiBr-LiSCN mixture against the water-LiBr pair was conducted by a computer simulation. The computer simulation is based on mass, material and heat balance equations for each part of the system. Coefficients of performance and flow ratios for effects of different operating temperatures are investigated. It is found that the heating COP is higher for the water-LiBr-LiSCN mixture than for the water-LiBr pair, and FR is lower for the former.

A new type bridge combining an integral bridge and a pair of geosynthetic-reinforced soil (GRS) retaining walls having full-height rigid (FHR) facings, called the GRS integral bridge, is proposed. The geosynthetic reinforcement layers are connected to the FHR facings (i.e., RC parapets) that are integrated with a girder without using any girder-support. GRS integral bridges are basically much more cost-effective in construction and long-term maintenance while having a much higher seismic stability than conventional-type bridges having a girder via movable and fixed supports on a pair of cantilever abutments. GRS integral bridges are better than bridges using GRS retaining walls as abutments and also than conventional integral bridges with unreinforced backfill. To validate the above, a series of static cyclic lateral loading tests of the facing and a series of shaking table tests were performed on smallscaled models of different bridge types.

The effects of rate of phase separation to ester interchange reactions and the repulsive pair interaction energy on the phase behavior in a phase-separated immiscible polyester blend are investigated using a Monte Carlo simulation method. The time evolution of structure factor and the degree of randomness are monitored as a function of homogenization time. When the phase separation is dominant over ester interchange reactions, the domain size slowly increases with homogenization time. However, when the pair interaction becomes less repulsive, the domain size does not significantly change with homogenization time. On the other hand, when ester interchange reactions are dominant over the phase separation, the homogenization proceeds without a change in the domain size. The higher the extent of phase separation, the lower the increasing rate of the DR. However, when the phase separation is sufficiently dominant, the effect of the extent of phase separation on the increasing rate of the degree of randomness become less significant.

In this paper, design algorithms for SMP(Single Mated Pair) and MMP (Multipli Mated Pair) structure of CCS (Common Channel Signaling) network are proposed through the study of the structure of CCS network. High reliability and fast messagy transfer time are the most important requirements for the CCS network. Based on it, three parameters such as monotraffic, reliability (maximum isolated SP(Signalling Point) number when any two STP(Signalling Transfer Points) fail and total network cost are defined. And the proposed algorithms different from preexisted algorithm that minimizes total network cost, maximize monotraffic with two constraints, reliability and total network cost. Comparing the experimental results of the proposed algorithms with those of the preexisted algorithm that minimizes total network cost, shows that the proposed algorithms produce a more reliable topology that has more monotraffic and a little higher total network cost. Additionaly, with the results of the proposed algorithms, SMP and MMP structures are compared.
