본 논문에서는 고정된 카메라로부터 획득된 색상 비디오 프레임에서 조명변화와 겹침으로 인한 왜곡에 강건하게 다수의 사람을 추적하는 방법을 제안한다. 조명변화에 따른 외형변화의 문제점을 해결하기 위하여 시간 비종속적인 본래(intrinsic) 영상을 이용하여 프레임에 존재하는 조명을 제거하며, 매 프레임마다 조명 영상을 적응적으로 갱신한다. 카메라 내에서 사람을 추적하기 위해 색상정보를 포함하는 계충적 사람모델을 사용함으로써 겹침의 문제를 해결한다. 추적된 사람모델은 사람모델 리스트에 저장되어 해당되는 사람이 카메라에서 사라진 후에도 일정 기간 보존됨으로써, 재등장한 사람의 정보를 복원할 수 있다. 본 논문에서 제안하는 적응적 모델기반 방법은 실내${\cdot}$외 영상을 대상으로 여러 시나리오로 실험되어, 조명변화로 왜곡된 사람의 색상정보를 옳게 보정하였을 뿐만 아니라 사람들이 겹치거나 헤어진 후에도 성공적으로 추적하였음을 확인하였다.

Spongy Alphonso mangoes were found to be infected with Staphylococcus bacteria. A Gram positive Staphylococcus strain was isolated from spongy pulp and identified from CABI Bioscience, UK, by partial 16S rDNA sequence analysis and by morphological and biochemical characterization through IMTECH, Chandigarh, India. Although identification by both of these methods indicated the organism belonged to same genus, different species names were given. Changes in total phenolics, reducing, and non-reducing sugars, respiration rate, total carotenoids, peroxidase(POX), and catalase activities were monitored during ripening of these fruits. The climacteric rise in spongy fruits was marked by an increase in respiration rate and a decrease in sugar content. Total phenolics content increased in spongy fruits as compared to ripe non-spongy fruits. Development of corky white tissue in spongy fruits was associated with about a 2.5-fold reduction in total carotenoids and a concomitant increase in lipoxygenase-mediated, $\beta$-carotene co-oxidation. A marked decrease in soluble protein content and about a 1.5-fold increase in POX activity was observed. Maximum POX activity was confined to 50-70%$(NH_4)_2SO_4$ fraction. The intense dark bands visible after POX specific substrate staining of the Native gel indicated a high expression of isoenzymes of POX in spongy fruits. Similarly, changes in levels of catalase activity were also observed in spongy fruits. The results suggest that infection of Alphonso mangoes with Staphylococcus bacteria affects the normal ripening processes of the fruit interfering with the carbohydrate and carotenoid metabolism. Also, the studies indicate the expression of POX and catalase enzymes as a plant defense response to microbial invasion.

Changes in chemical composition of the ethanolic extract of roasted Asparagi Tuber were investigated by HPLC. One dramatically increased peak $(t_R\;14.85 min)$ was isolated by silica gel column chromatograph and identified as 5-hydroxymethyl furfural (HMF) by comparing its $1^H-NMR$ data with that of a commercial standard. HMF content reached its maximum level at $190^{\circ}C$ for 60 minutes. Under these conditions, HMF contents in the roasted Asparagi Tuber was increased about thirteen times (9.26mg/g) over the not-roasted control (0.71 mg/g). No significant differences were found in macrophage-activating, prolyl endopeptidase-inhibiting, antioxidative (DPPH), anti-coagulating (activated partial thromboplastin times), and ACE-inhibiting activities between roasted and not-roasted Asparagi Tuber.

Background: The diagnosis of pediatric acute respiratory distress syndrome (PARDS) is a pragmatic decision based on the degree of hypoxia at the time of onset. We aimed to determine whether reclassification using oxygenation metrics 24 hours after diagnosis could provide prognostic ability for outcomes in PARDS. Methods: Two hundred and eighty-eight pediatric patients admitted between January 1, 2010 and January 30, 2017, who met the inclusion criteria for PARDS were retrospectively analyzed. Reclassification based on data measured 24 hours after diagnosis was compared with the initial classification, and changes in pressure parameters and oxygenation were investigated for their prognostic value with respect to mortality. Results: PARDS severity varied widely in the first 24 hours; 52.4% of patients showed an improvement, 35.4% showed no change, and 12.2% either showed progression of PARDS or died. Multivariate analysis revealed that mortality risk significantly increased for the severe group, based on classification using metrics collected 24 hours after diagnosis (adjusted odds ratio, 26.84; 95% confidence interval [CI], 3.43 to 209.89; P=0.002). Compared to changes in pressure variables (peak inspiratory pressure and driving pressure), changes in oxygenation (arterial partial pressure of oxygen to fraction of inspired oxygen) over the first 24 hours showed statistically better discriminative power for mortality (area under the receiver operating characteristic curve, 0.701; 95% CI, 0.636 to 0.766; P<0.001). Conclusions: Implementation of reclassification based on oxygenation metrics 24 hours after diagnosis effectively stratified outcomes in PARDS. Progress within the first 24 hours was significantly associated with outcomes in PARDS, and oxygenation response was the most discernable surrogate metric for mortality.

Four-week toxicity of EPO(erythropoietin) was investigated using New Zealand White rabbits according to the established regulations of Korean National Institute of Safety Research. Rabbits were administered intravenously seven days per week for 28 days with dosage of 0, 80, 400 and 2000IU/kg B. W./day. Animals administered with EPO showed no significant changes of body weight, water consumption and feed consumption, and no clinical signs and death. They were not significantly different from the control group in hematological and serum biochemical analysis, urinalysis, prothrombin time, and partial thromboplastin time. In this study, we concluded that EPO had no toxic effect in the New Zealand White rabbits when they were administered intravenously below 2000IU/ kg B.W./ day for 28 days.

New problems have been recently posed on the abnormal foaming (Scum) in an aeration tank and the sludge flotation in a final sedimentation tank during the activated sludge process. However, the activities of the causing bacteria, Nocardia-amarae in an aeration tank have not been searched out at all. Therefore, in this article the activities of Nocardia-amarae in an aeration tank have been closely examined by means of the changes of (F/M) ratio, SRT and inflowing substrate using continuous type and fed-batch type. Summarized results of experiments are as follows. 1. Regrading continuous culture when synthetic wastewater was used substrate neither the increase in the number of Nocardia-amarae in the aeration tank nor the Occurrence of Scum was observed. 2. In the case of fed-batch culture, Nocardia-amarae in the aeration tank increased due to the partial change in substrate and the effect of SRT was significant. 3. Once the scum was formed and the quantity of added Nocardia-amarae and substrate were not changed, the effect of STR was not significant.

Size and crystalline phase changes of $Fe_{2}O_{3}$ nanoparticles formed in a $H_{2}/O_{2}$ flame have been investigated. At flame temperatures below $1350^{\circ}C$, the mean particle size increased monotonously with the distance from the burner edge; but in high-temperature flames above $1650^{\circ}C$, it suddenly decreased from 20 nm to ${\sim}3$ nm with the distance from the burner edge. The results of X-ray diffraction and HRTEM showed that this sudden reduction of the size of nanoparticles was accompanied by a partial phase transformation from ${\gamma}$-$Fe_{2}O_{3}$ into ${\alpha}$-$Fe_{2}O_{3}$. We suggest the structural instability due to ${\gamma}-$ to ${\alpha}-phase$ transformation as a mechanism for a rapid fragmentation of 20 nm particles into 3 nm ones.

We have performed left lung transplantations in 15 dogs for one year and six months from June, 1990 to December, 1991 at the Repartment of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery Yonsei University College of medicine, Seoul, Korea. These dogs were sacrificed at from operative day to post-operative 15 days when their general conditions were deteriorated. The gross findings of the transplanted lungs were thrombi in left atrium in three cases, partial occlusion of pulmonary artery or pulmonary veins in three cases, hemorrhage at pulmonary arterial anastomotic site in one case and bronchial anastomotic stenosis in two cases, bronchial anastomotic rupture in one case % no abnormal gross findings in four cases. The microscopic findings of the transplanted lungs were hemorrhagic infarction in one case, perivascular hemorrhage or pulmonary edema in two cases, peribronchial inflammatory cell infiltration & pneumonia in three cases, and alveolar type rejection with infiltration of type II pneumocytes and septal thickening in 3 cases. And also there were no abnormal findings including rejection or inflammatory evidences in six cases. The one among these six dogs survived to 15 days without evidence of rejection or inflammatory reaction & died due to postoperative care accident.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate a cases which was treated with konus telescope on the patients in bilaterally edentulous mandible. Author made konus telescope for two patients and then X-ray and clinical examination were used for evaluation of the function and change in supporting structure of the abutment teeth during the 60months. Patient complained of difficulties in removal of denture at the beginning but they got used to it soon. X-ray showed that there were no changes in supporting structure of the abutment teeth after 60 months. It was effective in promotion of ridge soreness and also reducing the need of relining. This study suggest that konus telescope was effective for the treatment of bilaterally edentulous situations.
