  • Based on the recently developed deep learning technology, many studies have been conducted on deep learning networks that simultaneously detect and classify targets of interest in synthetic aperture radar(SAR) images. Although numerous research results have been derived mainly with the open SAR ship datasets, there is a lack of work carried out on the deep learning network aimed at detecting and classifying SAR ground targets and trained with the synthetic dataset generated from electromagnetic scattering simulations. In this respect, this paper presents the deep learning network trained with the synthetic dataset and applies it to detecting and classifying real SAR ground targets. With experiment results, this paper also analyzes the network performance according to the composition ratio between the real measured data and the synthetic data involved in network training. Finally, the summary and limitations are discussed to give information on the future research direction.

  • Background: Recent studies have elucidated the quorum-sensing mechanisms, biofilm formation, inter-pathogen interactions, and genes related to oral pathogens. This review aims to explore the recent expansion of drug targets against oral pathogens and summarize the current research on novel antibiotic substances derived from marine organisms that target oral pathogens. Methods: A comprehensive literature review summarized the novel mechanisms pertaining to quorum-sensing signal transmission systems, biofilm formation, and metabolite exchange in oral pathogens. The amino acid sequences of the 16 proteins identified as potential drug targets were systematically classified and compared across various oral microorganisms. Results: Through a literature review, we identified nine studies researching quorum sensing signaling inhibitors targeting oral pathogens. A comparison of the amino acid sequences of 16 potential drug targets in oral microorganisms revealed significant differences between oral pathogens and beneficial oral symbiotic microorganisms. These findings imply that it is possible to design drugs that can bind more selectively to oral pathogens. Conclusion: By summarizing the results of recent research on the signaling mechanisms that cause pathogenicity, new drug targets against oral pathogens were proposed. Additionally, the current status of developing new antibiotics for oral pathogens using recently developed quorum sensing inhibitors and natural products derived from marine organisms was introduced. Consequently, marine natural products can be used to develop drugs targeting new proteins in oral pathogens.

  • This paper presents the FORTRAN program for expected damage by surface-to-surface weapons. One of the methods can be used to determine the effectiveness of general purpose (GP) bombs and cluster weapons against single unitary targets, linear targets, area targets, and areas of unitary target elements, The effectiveness index is in terms of fractional damage ($F_D$) or the number of volleys ($N_V$).

  • The diagrammatic language for pathways is widely used for representing systems knowledge as a network of causal relations. Biologists infer and hypothesize with pathways to design experiments and verify models, and to identify potential drug targets. Although there have been many approaches to formalize pathways to simulate a system, reasoning with incomplete and high level knowledge has not been possible. We present a qualitative formalization of a pathway language with incomplete causal descriptions and its translation into propositional temporal logic to automate the reasoning process. Such automation accelerates the identification of drug targets in pathways.

  • This thesis presents a model to assign targets and to determine gun ammunitions required for naval surface warfare. Delivery errors of weapon systems and vulnerability of moving targets are analyzed, then probability to kill moving battle sihps is computed. A weapon-target allocation model is proposed by using the Out of Kilter technique. A model to determine ammunitions required for killing moving targets is also designed. The models are evaluated by simulation and sensitivity analysis.

  • Infrared seekers using reticles with a single detector have been widely used due to small size and low cost. However, the analysis of the error signals and the performance in multiple targets are performed either simplistically or not at all. In this paper, we present detector signals and processing results using image and signal processing techniques, especially performance analysis in multiple targets. The simulation results are essential to make the advanced signal processing part of retical seekers which can deal with various engagement scenarios.

  • The discovery of HER2, a biomarker in advanced gastric cancer, and successful clinical trial using trastuzumab that targets this biomarker signaled a revolutionary turning point in treatment of metastatic gastric cancer. Many studies about targeted agents for gastric cancer have been attempted. Among them, ramicirumab, a monoclonal antibody that targets vascular endothelial growth factor receptor-2 (VEGFR-2), and apatinib, a tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) that targets VEGFR2, have shown to improve the survival rates in advanced gastric cancer patients, for whom previous therapies had failed; hence, they are expected to be accepted as one of the standard therapies for advanced gastric cancer.

  • SiC based Schottky barrier diodes were prepared by using the facing targets sputtering method. In this research, 4H-SiC polytypes of SiC were adopted and Molybdenum, Titanium was employed as the Schottky metal of the metal-semiconductor contacts. Both structures showed the rectifying nature in their forward and reverse J-V characteristic curve and the ideality factors calculated from these plots that were close to unity were represented the nearly ideal behavior. Difference of Schottky barrier height between prepared devices was also corresponding with the electrical characteristics of themselves. Therefore the suitability of the facing targets sputtering method for fabrication of Schottky diodes could be suggested from these results.

  • The effect of the deposition conditions, such as the base pressure, working pressure, sputtering power, pre-sputtering, and deposition thickness in facing targets sputtering system(FTS), on the oxidation of the TbFeCo thin films was studied by investigating the magneto-optical properties as well as oxygen analysis by the AES depth profiles. The results showed that the base pressure did not affect the magnetic properties so much, probably due to the short flight distance of the sputtered particles. At the higher sputtering power and lower working pressure with pre-sputtering the oxidation of TbFeCo thin films was decreased. As the film thickness increased the TbFeCo thin films showed the perpendicular anisotropy from in-plane anisotropy overcoming the oxidation effect at the beginning of the sputtering.
