Convenience is one of the most important factors in medical image segmentation. Convenience is defined by compiling opinions from radiologists, and can be described as controllable maximum automation on the condition of producing only accurate results. The components of convenience are inclusive automation and inclusive modification. Inclusive modification consists of verify-and-confirm, undo-redo, exchange of segmentation methods, and intelligent modification tools. Inclusive automation is composed of automatic selection of a method, automatic selection of a confident segment, and automated chores. The convenient segmentation tool has been developed to segment X-ray images for orthopedic surgery, and has received an excellent evaluation from radiologists.

The cDNA encoding ribosomal protein S4(RPS 4) from an ovary cDNA library of the Japanese monkey (Macaca fuscata) was cloned and sequenced. The RPS4X gene from monkey X chromosome encodes a deduced protein of 263 amino acids and share 99.1% cDNA sequence similarity and 100% amino acid sequence identify with the human RPS4X. Rate of synonymous substitution was higher in RPS4Y than in RPS4X in comparison to the monkey and human. The ratio of synonymous and nonsynonymous substitutions per site indicated that directional selection has nor occurred in RPS4 genes. Phylogenetic analysis using the neighbor-joining method revealed that X and Y-linked RPS4 genes have evolved independently.

This paper deals with the Performance Based Logistics(PBL) application scheme pertaining to optimal maintenance program for logistics of Korean Fighter Experimental(KF-X) Project. For enhancement of the performance based logistics system application to KF-X program the selection of appropriate standards fit to maximize cost-cutting, a set of performance metrics fit for the purpose of the contract, foreign technology dependence of core equipments and parts were considered. Thus, selecting appropriate standards fit for Korean logistics environment, domestic maintenance enterprise for stable rate of operation of KF-X, a systematic reliability task that is able to measure quantitative combat capability are suggested.

We observed abnormal morphology of cotyledons occurring in seedlings derived from open-pollinated and cross-pollinated tetraploid grapes and selected aneuploids, especially hypo- and hyper-tetraploid in seedlings with abnormal morphology of cotyledons. Five types of morphologically abnormal cotyledons were observed. In open-pollination of four tetraploid grapes, the frequency of abnormal cotyledons was 1.6% (49 of 3029 seeds). Percentage of aneuploids in the seedlings of abnormal cotyledons was 20.4% (10 of 49 seedlings). Aneuploids in open-pollination consisted of three (4n = 4x-2), four (4n = 4x-1), and three (4n = 4x+1) seedlings. In cross-pollination of tetraploids, the frequency of abnormal cotyledons was 3.4% (59 of 1729 seeds). Percentage of aneuploids in the seedlings with abnormal cotyledons was 22.0% (13 of 59 seedlings). Aneuploids from cross-pollination of tetraploids consisted of two (4n = 4x-2), nine (4n = 4x-1), one (4n = 4x+1), and one (4n = 4x+3) seedlings. According to the results, although the abnormal cotyledon morphology of seedlings obtained from crossing between tetraploid grapes appeared at low rate (2.3%), aneuploid seedlings occurred at high rate (22.0%); therefore, it indicated that this selection strategy might be very efficient in the initial seedling stage.

Recently we frequently analyze multivariate data with quite large number of variables. In such data sets, virtually duplicated variables may exist simultaneously even though they are conceptually distinguishable. Duplicate variables may cause problems such as the distortion of principal axes in principal component analysis and factor analysis and the distortion of the distances between observations, i.e. the input for cluster analysis. Also in supervised learning or regression analysis, duplicated explanatory variables often cause the instability of fitted models. Since real data analyses are aimed often at multiple purposes, it is necessary to reduce the number of variables to a parsimonious level. The aim of this paper is to propose a practical algorithm for selection of a subset of variables from a given set of p input variables, by the criterion of minimum trace of partial variances of unselected variables unexplained by selected variables. The usefulness of proposed method is demonstrated in visualizing the relationship between selected and unselected variables, in building a predictive model with very large number of independent variables, and in reducing the number of variables and purging/merging categories in categorical data.

The X-ray projection system has long been used for steel-tube inspection and weld monitoring. The thickness of tubes and welded areas is based on the evaluation of radiographic shadow projections. The traditional tangential measurement estimates the distance of border lines of the projected wall shadows of a tube onto a radiographic image detector. The detected image in which although there is a variety of noise may be sectioned into several partitions according to its specific blocks. Imaging noise originates from most of elements of the system, such as shielding CCD camera, imaging screen, X-ray source, inspected object, electronic circuits and etc. The tangential projection incorrectness and noise influence on imaging quality. In this paper we first sectionalize the X-ray image on the basis of vertical contrast difference. And next functional and statistic analysis are carried on at each region. Geometrical distance and unsharpness of the edge caused by visual evaluation uncertainties are also discussed.

The new burley tobacco variety, KB 301, was developed by the cross combination ’(Ky 17 x TI 1068)F$_4$ x TC 613’. The modified pedigree breeding method was used in the selection procedures. The agronomic traits and chemical constituents of KB 301 were very similar to those of Burley 21. But KB 301 had significantly higher content of total DVT than Burley 21. KB 301 was also resistant to black shank, TMV and PVY.

Purpose of this study is proposal of estimating method about window thermal performance that based on KS F 2278 'Test method of thermal resistance for windows and doors' due to material composition of PVC frame window. First step of this study is research of present state about material composition of PVC frame window. Second is selection of main effective elements about window thermal resistance. For example, composition of Glazing, Frame area ratio of total window area, frame width, opening type, area of heat transfer and so on. Third is multiple regression analysis about thermal performance of PVC frame window due to main effective elements. It produces equations of multiple regression analysis due to opening type. Case of sliding window is $Y=0.149+0.034X_g+0.248X_{far}$, 4track sliding is $Y=0.584+0.175X_g+1.355X_{far}-0.008X_{fw}$, Tilt & Turn window is $Y=-0.161+0.076X_g+0.576X_{far}+0.0008X_{fw}$.

The experimental analysis method of stress intensity factors by "slab analogy" which was developed by authors proved itself effective to the determination of stress intensity factors of various shape of through cracks. Its experimental results, however, still has errors more or less 10% in comparison with known theoretical values. In this paper, a newly evaluating method, multi-point selection method, is presented by which these errors were decreased by more than 2%.e than 2%.
