Pineal organs of poikilotherm vertebrates transform the environmental light information into a humoral message and a neuronal activity. The former is melatonin, and the latter is modulation of the impulse in ganglion cells. The ganglion cells are physiologically classified into luminosity (achromatic) type and chromatic one, as the neural activity is modulated in two ways. We attempted to classify the pineal ganglion cells with morphological characteristics by means of the three- dimensional reconstruction method. In the pineal ganglion cells of river lamprey, there are two different features, oval and spherical. For comparison of their projection region in the brain, the tracing investigation was also carried out. The application of the neural tracer near mesencephalic tegmentum showed that only oval-shaped ganglion cells were labeled in the pineal organ. These results suggest that the oval-shaped ganglion cell is functionally different from the spherical one.

K-평균 클러스터링은 매우 널리 사용되고 있으나 유사도가 구면체 또는 타원체로 정의되어 각 클러스터가 볼록 집합 형태인 자료에는 좋은 결과를 주지만 그렇지 않은 경우에는 매우 형편 없는 결과를 나타낸다. 스펙트럴 클러스터링은 K-평균 클러스터링의 단점을 잘 보완해 줄 뿐아니라 여러 형태의 자료나 고차원 자료 등에 대해서도 좋은 결과를 나타내서 최근 인공 신경망 모형에 많이 이용되고 있다. 하지만, 개선되어야 할 단점도 여전히 많다. 본 논문에서는 스펙트럴 클러스터링에 대해 알기 쉽게 소개하고, 클러스터 갯수의 추정, 척도모수의 추정, 고차원 자료의 차원 축소 등 스펙트럴 클러스터링에 대한 최근의 연구 동향을 소개한다.

Monodispersed and nano-sized Ni powders were synthesized from aqueous nickel sulfate hexahydrate $(NiSO_4{\cdot}6H_2O)$ inside nonionic polymer network by using wet chemical reduction process. The sucrose was used as a nonionic polymer network source. The effect of reaction conditions such as the amount of sucrose and a various reaction temperature, nickel sulfate hexahydrate molarity. The influence of a nonionic polymer network on the particle size of the prepared Ni powders was characterized by means of X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and particle size analysis (PSA). The results showed that the obtained Ni powders were strong by dependent of the reaction conditions. In particular, the Ni powders prepared inside a nonionic polymer network had smooth spherical shape and narrow particle size distribution.

Agglomerated and nonagglomerated SiO2 particles are synthesized in furnace by the electrohydrodynamic spraying method and the vapor feeding method for the test particle generator this study. These polydispersed particles are classified with DMA to extract equal mobility particles. Then these particles are introduced into CNC (Condensation Nuclei Counter) to see the pulse height using Multi-channel Analyzer. The response characteristics of these two kinds of particles in CNCs (TSI CNC 3022 and 3025A) have been studied as a function of particle size using mono disperse particles classified by DMA. The results show that the higher drag resistance particles, so called agglomerated particles have generated a lower CNC pulse height than the spherical particles for these two different CNCs, which means the nonagglomerated particles may start to grow larger than the agglomerated particles.

Motivated by bioequivalence studies which involve comparisons of pharmaceutically equivalent dosage forms, we propose a more general decision rule for showing equivalence simultaneously between multiple means and a control mean. Namely, this testing procedure is concerned with the situation in that one must make decisions as to the bioequivalence of an original drug product and several generic formulations of that drug. This general test is developed by considering a spherical confidence region, which is a direct extension of the usual t-based confidence interval rule formally approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. We characterize the test by the probability of rejection curves and assess its performance via Monte-Carlo simulation. Since the manufacturer's main concern is the proper choice of sample sizes, we provide optimal sample sizes from the Monte-Carlo simulation results. We also consider an application of the generalized equivalence test to a repeated measures design.

When an object or objects, rigid or flexible, presents in incident sound field, the sound wave is scattered. This, we call, is scattered sound field. It, of course, depends on the amplitude and the direction of the incident sound field as well as the geometry and the surface impedance of the scatterer(object). This paper addresses the way to measure scattered sound field by using arbitrary incident sound wave. This means that the method can decompose the scattered field from measured sound field with respect to any magnitudes and directions of incident plane-waves.

This study deals with the removal of mercury species using a packed-bed column with spherical aminated chitosan material. These adsorbents revealed a high adsorption capacity for mercury species. Experiments with feed solutions of 10 ppm Hg dissolved in distilled water showed an excellent removal with a sharp increase of the filter effluent concentration after a total throughput of 900 bed volumes of feed water. Up to $95\%$ desorption was reached by using 3 bed volumes of 0.01 N EDTA solution. EDTA could be recovered by means of sulfuric acid with about $75\%$ efficiency. Almost the same results were obtained in repeated sorption and desorption experiments at identical conditions. The experiments demonstrated that the sorbents possessed practically no sorption capacity for alkaline earth ions ($Ca^{2+}\;and\;Mg^{2+}$). Their influence on the sorption of mercury was negligible. In experiments with spiked tap water of the Karlsruhe Research Centre and a feed mercury concentration of 0.01 mg/l, the breakthrough of Hg was observed only after a total throughput of about 6,000 bed volumes of feed water.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the dissolution components during corrosion of amalgams and to identify surface corrosion products in the modified Fusayama artificial saliva. Four type of amalgam alloys were used: low copper lathe cut amalgam alloy (Cavex 68), low copper spherical amalgam alloy (Caulk Spherical Alloy), high copper admixed amalgam alloy (Dispersalloy) and high copper single composition amalgam alloy (Tytin). Each amalgam alloy and Hg were triturated according to the manufacturer's direction by means of mechanical amalgamator (Capmaster, S.S.White), and then the triturated mass was inserted into the cylindrical metal mold which was 10mm in diameter and 2.0mm in height and condensed with compression of 150kg/$cm^2$ using oil pressor. The specimens were removed from the mold and stored at room temperature for 7 days and cleansed with distiled water for 30 minutes in an ultrasonic cleaner. The specimens were immersed in the modified Fusayama artificial saliva for the periods of 1 month, 3 months and 6 months. The amounts of Hg, Cu, Sn and Zn dissolved from each amalgam specimen immersed in the artificial saliva for the periods of 1 month, 3 months and 6 months were measured using Inductivity Coupled Plasma Atomic Emission Spectrometry (ICPQ-1000, Shimadzu, Japan) and amount of Ag dissolved from amalgam specimen was measured using Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometry (Atomic Absorption/Flame emission spectrophotometer M-670, Shimadzu, Japan). A surface corrosion products of specimens were analysed using Electron Spectroscopy Chemical Analyser (ESCA PHI-558, PERKIN ELMER, U.S.A.). The secondary image and back scattered image of corroded surface of specimens was observed under the SEM, and the corroded surface of specimens was analysed with the EDX. The following results were obtained. 1. The dissolution amount of Cu was the most in high copper admixed amalgam(Dispersalloy) and the least in high copper single composition amalgam(Tytin). 2. Sn and Zn were dissolved during all the experiment periods, and dissolution amounts were decreased as the time elapsed. 3. Initial surface corrosion products were ZnO and SnO. 4. Corrosion of ${\gamma}$ and ${\gamma}_2$ phase in low copper amalgams was observed and Ag-Cu eutectic alloy phase was corroded in low copper spherical amalgam(Caulk Sperical Alloy). 5. Corrosion of ${\gamma}$ and $\eta$' phase in high copper amalgams was observed and Ag-Cu eutectic alloy phase was corroded in high copper admixed amalgam(Dispersalloy). 6. Sn-Cl was produced in the subsurface of low copper amalgams and high copper admixed amalgam.

본 연구는, 원리적인 다양한 장점에도 불구하고 현실적인 제약으로 인해 실제 설계과정에서 잘 적용되지 않는, 자이델 3차 수차를 간편하게 다룰 수 있는 방안을 제안한다. 먼저 유한 물체거리를 갖는 2 반사경계에 대해 자이델 3차의 구면수차계수를 유도한다. 여기서, 유도된 구면수차계수는 고차의 비선형 방정식으로 표현되는데, 그 구성은 설계변수(물체거리, 주경 및 부경의 곡률, 주경과 부경 사이의 거리)와 유효초점거리로 이루어진다. 해석적으로 표현된 고차의 비선형 구면수차 방정식은 컴퓨터를 이용한 수치기법에 의해 근사적인 제로조건을 만족하도록 풀려진다. 이렇게 구해진 다양한 수치 해들을 주의 깊게 통찰하면 주경과 부경의 곡률 간에 선형성이 존재함을 파악할 수 있다. 즉, 결과적으로 주경과 부경의 곡률들을 선형맞춤(linear fitting)하면 곡률선형방정식이 얻어지는데, 이의 의미는 약간의 대수적인 계산으로 최적화의 초기 입력 데이터를 손쉽게 얻을 수 있는 가능성을 제시한 것이다. 한편, 응용외의 순수 수차론적인 관점에서 본다면, 본 연구의 특징은 유한 물체거리를 갖는 2 반사경계의 주경 및 부경의 곡률들이 구면수차가 거의 제로가 되는 조건 하에서 상호간에 선형 관계가 존재하였다는 것이다.

Dendrimers represent a new class of synthetic macromolecules characterized by a regularly branched treelike structure. Peculiar features of the dendritic geometry are the large number of end groups as well as the shape persistence in higher generations, approaching spherical geometry. And one of the most peculiar characteristics of dendritic macromolecules is their controlled molecular structure and orientation, which means that they have a practical application in achieving a highly organized molecular arrangement. We attempted to fabricate a G4-48PyA dendrimer LB films containing 48 pyridinealdoxime functional end group that could form a complex structure with metal ions. Also, we investigated the surface activity of dendrimer films at air-water interface. And we have studied the electrical properties of the ultra-thin dendrimer LB films. The electrical properties of the ultra-thin dendrimer LB films were investigated by studying the current-voltage characteristics of metal/dendrimer LB films/metal (MIM) structure. And rectifying behavior of the devices was occurred in applied field.
