As the volume of online e-commerce transactions increases, items diversify and the classification becomes complicated. E-commerce platforms that specialize in dealing only in one area are emerging, and the area is diversifying. Three problems were identified by researching the craft online e-commerce platform, one of the various types of professional e-commerce platforms. First of all, although craft materials are diversified and complex on the platform, the existing craft e-commerce system is fragmented in structure to categorize complex crafts, making it difficult to accurately present search results that meet various criteria. Second, although appearance is the main reason for purchasing artifacts, it is rare for users to categorize them according to appearance, so they have to judge and filter each work directly. Finally, the language entered when searching for artifacts by non-technical experts is not reflected in the language used to categorize artifacts in the taxonomic system, so the language used for searching is highly accurate. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to add and consider complex attributes in the field of technology to meet the search criteria. Properties to be added must include the main appearance in the search for artifacts. In addition, the government aims to develop a taxonomic system that can reflect non-experts' search languages in the search of works through artificial intelligence natural language processing technology.

These studies were conducted to compare the external radulae of seven species (Semisulcospira gottschei, S. coreana, S. forticosta, S. tegulata, S. ibertina, Koreanomelania nodifila and Koreoleptoxis globus ovalis) of freshwater snails in three genera of the family Pleuroceridae in Korea. Under a microscope of 100 magnifications, observation of seven species can be distinguished sharply between three genera of Semisuicospira, Koreanomelania and Koreoleptoxis, and the morphological characters of radulae can be used as taxonomic tool in genus level of Pleuroceridae. Besides SEM photograph of the radulae based on the morphological characters in seven species can be verified a new criteria for classification of genus' unit grade in accord with firsthand drawing sketch under a microscope of 100 magnifications. But it is difficult that all of the species can be detected sharply the difference of interspecies by comparisons of radulae in the family Pleuroceridae in Korea. Therefore, the morphological characters of radulae can not be set a criteria for classification of species level.

A total of 352 specimens of congeneric species of Agkistrodon was collected and morphometric analysis and starch-gel electrophoresis were carried out in order to investigate the taxonomic status of this genus. The results obtained in this study are as follows: Morphometric analysis 1. Three species are recognized based on Gloyd's criteria. There was no specimen that was doubtful to classify correctly. Therefore, it seems that Gloyd's morphological characters are good criteria to identify each species. 2. All three species are sympatric at two localities (Mt. Seolag, Gangwon-do, and Mt. Deogyu, Jeonra-bugdo) and A. caligino년 and A. b. brevicaudus are sympatric at Gwangneung and Mt. Yongmun, Gyonggi-do. No hybrids were found in these sympatric localities. 3. Notable sexual dimorphism was found in meristic characters. 4. A. saxatilis has signicantly more number of ventrals and shorter tail ratio than other two species. 5. There were no significant meristic character differences between A. caligino년 and A. b. brevicaudus. Genetic analysis 1. Among 26 loci investigated, 12 loci (46.1%) were identical in their mobility, 4 loci (15.4%) were nearly identical with minor frequency differences, and 10 loci (38.5%) showed interspecific mobility difference. 2. The average proportion of polymorphic loci was 9.03%. This is considerably less than that of other vertebrates. 3. The average S and D values between species are .695 and .342 respectively. These values indicate that three taxa are distinct species. 4. A. caliginosus is genetically more related to A. saxatilis than to Agkistrodon, namely A. b. brevicaudus, A. caligino년 and A. saxatilis, as proposed by Gloyd. Far from being mere morphological variants, as suggested by Kang and Yoon (1975), they are highly distinctive evolutionary units.

This paper presents a set of methodologies for aligning hypernym-hyponym noun pairs between Korean and English, based on the EuroWordNet approach. Following the methods conducted in EuroWordNet, our approach makes extensive use of WordNet in four steps of the building process: 1) Monolingual dictionaries have been used to extract proper hypernym-hyponym noun pairs, 2) bilingual dictionary has converted the extracted pairs, 3) Word Net has been used as a backbone of alignment criteria, and 4) WordNet has been used to select the most similar pair among the candidates. The importance of this study lies not only on enriching semantic links between two languages, but also on integrating lexical resources based on a language specific and dependent structure. Our approaches are aimed at building an accurate and detailed lexical resource with proper measures rather than at fast development of generic one using NLP technique.

Structural genomics aims to provide a good experimental structure or computational model of every tractable protein in a complete genome. Underlying this goal is the immense value of protein structure, especially in permitting recognition of distant evolutionary relationships for proteins whose sequence analysis has failed to find any significant homolog. A considerable fraction of the genes in all sequenced genomes have no known function, and structure determination provides a direct means of revealing homology that may be used to infer their putative molecular function. The solved structures will be similarly useful for elucidating the biochemical or biophysical role of proteins that have been previously ascribed only phenotypic functions. More generally, knowledge of an increasingly complete repertoire of protein structures will aid structure prediction methods, improve understanding of protein structure, and ultimately lend insight into molecular interactions and pathways. We use computational methods to select families whose structures cannot be predicted and which are likely to be amenable to experimental characterization. Methods to be employed included modern sequence analysis and clustering algorithms. A critical component is consultation of the presage database for structural genomics, which records the community's experimental work underway and computational predictions. The protein families are ranked according to several criteria including taxonomic diversity and known functional information. Individual proteins, often homologs from hyperthermophiles, are selected from these families as targets for structure determination. The solved structures are examined for structural similarity to other proteins of known structure. Homologous proteins in sequence databases are computationally modeled, to provide a resource of protein structure models complementing the experimentally solved protein structures.

Culture isolates of the genus Hypoglossum (Delesseriaceae, Rhodophyta) were obtained and their development and morphological structure over many years were followed in the laboratory. Molecular data (rbcL, large subunit ribosomal DNA, and cytochrome c oxidase subunit I) were obtained from these strains and evidence presented to recognize the new species: Hypoglossum sabahense from Sabah, Malaysia. Because various aspects of morphology in culture specimens differ significantly from types based on field specimens we have to rely mainly on the molecular criteria in ascribing a new taxonomic name here. This also is complicated by the major lack of molecular phylogenetic evidence for Hypoglossum and other Delesseriaceae. The 'Germling Emergence Method' and 'serendipity' are proving valuable in discovering significant new taxa from laboratory cultures which otherwise might never be known.

Platysiphon verticillatus and Punctaria glacialis are synonymized by mainly on the basis of shared genes, nine identical sequences. Our hypothesis is that synonymy is erroneous. We posit the many differences of biological features between the two species, their ecological preferences, and occurrences do not support synonymy. Arcticophycus (nov. gen.) is described and contains the new combination Arcticophycus glacialis. Asexual, vegetative, life histories are proposed. Novel reproductive structures are described including previously unknown features of thallus development in the life history of both species. Discovery of the novel Platysiphon cyst, and dual sporangia types in Arcticophycus, is critical in establishing a probable strategy for survival through the Arctic winter for each annual species. Pl. verticillatus is erect, tubular, ovoid to circular in X sections, flaccid, non-parenchymatous, light brown, 10-15 cm high with distinctive photosynthetic hairs in clusters or whorled on the upper one third of the thallus. A. glacialis is erect, planar, robust, parenchymatous, dark brown and hairs absent. The Halosiphon clade is named, consisting of four genera: Halosiphon, Platysiphon, Arcticophycus, and Stschapovia. Occurrence of these genera is identified. Emended are the genus Platysiphon, the family Platysiphonaceae and the order Stschapoviales.

After having announced legislation for threatened or endangered species on the List of Endangered and Threatened Wildlife and Plants in 2005, the Korea Ministry of Environment proposed (in June 2011) amending the list, thereby delisting or reclassifying endangered species using new quantitative criteria for two levels (I and II), as well as status reviews. The new legislation included 40 species remained in their original endangered status, but 19 species were delisted, 5 species were proposed as candidates for delisting, 29 species were given a new endangered listing, and 3 species were proposed for an endangered listing in Korea. We assessed the threatened status of 98 plants using the IUCN Red List Criteria (version 3.1) at the global level, and compared the Ministry's revised criteria with the IUCN Red List Criteria and ESA criteria used in the USA. Most species proposed by the Ministry do not qualify as threatened and one of the major difficulties found in applying IUCN Red List Criteria at the global scale was a lack of knowledge on the status of species at broader geographic scales and the perceived difficulty this causes. Under the current classification process, many endangered species, such as Abeliophyllum distichum, Leontice microrhyncha, Echinosophora koreensis, Leontopodium coreanum, Iris odaesanensis, and Corylopsis coreana at global level were excluded here. Knowledge gaps and uncertainties mean that the number of taxa at high risk of extinction may be substantially greater than is currently understood. Due to a lack of information on its taxonomic status, currently there is controversy over the Red List status of Physocarpus insularis. Also, Caragana koreana, which was an invalidly published name, should be excluded here. Although the Korea Ministry of Environment insisted this procedure was conducted by applying the modified IUCN threat categories and definitions, this evaluation has been carried out based only on subjective views and misapplication of the IUCN Red List Criteria. The current listings by the Korea Ministry of Environment should be challenged. We suggest that broad species concepts on endemic species are applied and also criteria that adequately address the proper quantitative knowledge should be used. It is suggested that the highest priorities for the Red List should be given to endemic species at least in the Korean peninsula first at global scale.

To give basic information on the agricultural mechanization and multiple cropping adoptability of the paddified clayey terrace soils which have poor permeability and poor adoptability to mechanization, a scheme of drainage classification as well as taxonomic classification was intended. 1. The degrees of gleization of terrace paddy soils were well distinguished by the comparison of "Redness rating" of their profiles. 2. When the criteria of "Imperfectly drained" soils were defined as follows; Soils have more than 50cm of accumulated depth which has less than 0.5 in Redness rating within 1.2m of the profile, the Geugrag series could be classified to "Imperfectly drained." The tentative classification of drainage class of Geugrag soils seemed to well matching with land suitability groups, and give possibility of drainage recommendation in the case of dry land crop cultivation. 3. The Geugrag soil which was well paddified by artificial surface irrigation, could be proposed to classify "Anthroaquic Ochraqualfs."

Comprative osteology of the chum salmon Oncorhynchus keta, masu salmon O. masou and rainbow trout O. mykiss in Korea was studied. As a result, it was found that there were some differences in the structural features of the cranium and visceral skeleton among the species. Interspecific differencies in glossohyal, supraethmoid, parasphenoid and vomer were distinctive for the species. Chum salmon could be distinguished easily by some characters on form of glossohyal which is thin, long and sharp in shape. It has triangle shape supraethmoid while other two species have oval shape one. The shape of parasphenoid, preopercle, hyomandibular and the number of epurals were evaluated as new taxonomic criteria for the salmons.
