Group nearest-neighbor queries in the L₁ plane

Son, W.,Bae, S.W.,Ahn, H.K. North-Holland Pub. Co ; Elsevier Science Ltd 2015 Theoretical computer science Vol.592 No.-

<P>Let P be a set of n points in the plane. The k-nearest-neighbor (abbreviated as k-NN) query problem is to preprocess P into a data structure that quickly reports k closest points in P for a query point q. This paper addresses a generalization of the k-NN query problem to a query set Q of points, namely, the group k-nearest-neighbor query problem, in the L-1 plane. More precisely, a query is assigned with a set Q of at most m points and a positive integer k with k <= n, and the distance between a point p of P and a query set Q is defined as the sum of L-1 distances from p to all q is an element of Q. The maximum number m of query points Q is assumed to be known in advance and to be at most n. In this paper, we propose two algorithms, one based on the range tree and the other based on a data structure for segment dragging queries, and obtain the following complexity bounds: (1) a group k-NN query can be handled in O (T-min log n + (k + m(2))(log logn + logm)) time after preprocessing P using O(m(2)nlog(2)n) space, where T-min = min {k + m, m(2)}, or (2) a group k-NN query can be handled in O ((k + m)log(2) n + m(2)(log(is an element of) n + log m)) time after preprocessing P using O (m(2)n) space, where is an element of > 0 is an arbitrarily small constant. We also show that our approach can be applied to the weighted group k-nearest-neighbor query problem and the group k-farthest-neighbor query problem. (C) 2015 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.</P>

Genotypes of K-casein(K-CN) locus as a genetic marker linked to quantitative trait loci affecting traits of economic importance in dairy cattle were determined by PCR-RFLP method. Genomic DNA was prepared from blood of Holstein cows. The PCR was used to amplify an 874 by region between nucleotides 10592 and 11466 from exon IV to intron IV of the bovine K-CN gene using sense primer(5`-GTGCTGAGTAGGTATCCTAG-3`) and antisense primer(5`GTAGAGTGCAACAACACTGG-3`). After amplification, PCR products were digested with four restriction enzymes, Hind III, Rsa I, Taq I, and Pst I, and the fragments were separated by agarose gel electrophoresis for RFLP analysis of K-CN locus. In addition to screening for the known Hind III and Rsa I restriction site polymorphisms of K-CN locus, we have found additional RFLPs specific for the K-CN A and B alleles in Taca I and Pst I enzymes. The amplified DNA product digested with each restriction enzyme generated specific RFLP pattern that allowed precise identification of K-CN AA, BB or AB genotypes. The K-CN genotypes determined for cows by the PCR-RFLP method agreed completely with the phenotypes obtained from milk samples of the same individuals. Thus, PCR amplification and RFLP analysis was shown to be a rapid and sensitive method for the discrimination of K-CN genotypes directly at the DNA level in dairy cattle of any age or sex. Consequently, the PCR-RFLP method presented in this study can be used as a valuable tool for early selection of AI bulls and calves with desirable K-CN B gene or K-CN BB genotype affecting superior milk production traits for genetic improvement of Holstein dairy cattle.

<P><B>Abstract</B></P><P>We develop the left-definite analysis associated with the self-adjoint Jacobi operator Ak(α,β), generated from the classical second-order Jacobi differential expression<SUB>ℓα,β,k</SUB>[y](t)=1<SUB>wα,β</SUB>(t)((-(1-t<SUP>)α+1</SUP>(1+t<SUP>)β+1</SUP><SUP>y′</SUP>(t)<SUP>)′</SUP>+k(1-t<SUP>)α</SUP>(1+t<SUP>)β</SUP>y(t))(t∈(-1,1)),in the Hilbert space Lα,β2(-1,1)≔<SUP>L2</SUP>((-1,1);<SUB>wα,β</SUB>(t)), where <SUB>wα,β</SUB>(t)=(1-t<SUP>)α</SUP>(1+t<SUP>)β</SUP>, that has the Jacobi polynomials {Pm(α,β)}m=0∞ as eigenfunctions; here, α,β>-1 and <I>k</I> is a fixed, non-negative constant. More specifically, for each n∈N, we explicitly determine the unique left-definite Hilbert–Sobolev space Wn,k(α,β)(-1,1) and the corresponding unique left-definite self-adjoint operator Bn,k(α,β) in Wn,k(α,β)(-1,1) associated with the pair (Lα,β2(-1,1),Ak(α,β)). The Jacobi polynomials {Pm(α,β)}m=0∞ form a complete orthogonal set in each left-definite space Wn,k(α,β)(-1,1) and are the eigenfunctions of each Bn,k(α,β). Moreover, in this paper, we explicitly determine the domain of each Bn,k(α,β) as well as each integral power of Ak(α,β). The key to determining these spaces and operators is in finding the explicit Lagrangian symmetric form of the integral composite powers of <SUB>ℓα,β,k</SUB>[·]. In turn, the key to determining these powers is a double sequence of numbers which we introduce in this paper as the <I>Jacobi–Stirling numbers</I>. Some properties of these numbers, which in some ways behave like the classical Stirling numbers of the second kind, are established including a remarkable, and yet somewhat mysterious, identity involving these numbers and the eigenvalues of Ak(α,β).</P>

Enrichment of Vitamins $D_3$, K and Iron in Eggs of Laying Hens

Park, S.W.,Namkung, H.,Ahn, H.J.,Paik, I.K. Asian Australasian Association of Animal Productio 2005 Animal Bioscience Vol.18 No.2

An experiment was conducted to produce eggs enriched with vitamins $D_3$, K and iron in eggs. Six hundred 97-wk-old ISA Brown force molted hens were allocated to completely randomized block arrangement of six dietary treatments: T1; control (C), T2; C+4,000 IU vitamin $D_3$+2.5 mg vitamin K+100 ppm Fe, T3; C+8,000 IU vitamin $D_3$+5.0 mg vitamin K+100 ppm Fe, T4; C+12,000 IU vitamin $D_3$+7.5 mg vitamin K+100 ppm Fe, T5; C+16,000 IU vitamin $D_3$+10.0 mg vitamin K+100 ppm Fe, T6; C+20,000 IU vitamin $D_3$+12.5 mg vitamin K+100 ppm Fe. Fe was supplemented with Fe-methionine. Each treatment consisted of five replicates of ten cages with two birds per cage. Egg production and egg weight were highest in T2 and incidence of soft and broken egg was highest in T6. Haugh unit was not different among treatments although it tended to be increased as dietary vitamins $D_3$ and K increased. Eggshell strength was not different among treatment. Concentrations of vitamin $D_3$ and K in egg yolk increased and plateaued approximately 20 days after feeding supplemented diets. The level of these vitamins peaked at 12,000 IU/kg vitamin $D_3$ and 7.5 mg/kg vitamin K supplementation and then decreased at the higher than these supplementation levels. The peak concentrations of vitamin $D_3$ and vitamin K were 4.6 times and 4.8 times greater than the control, respectively. Supplementary Fe also increased Fe content in egg yolk. It is concluded that vitamin $D_3$ and K in eggs can be effectively enriched by proper supplementation time and level of these vitamins.

150 주기의 InAs/GaSb (8/8-ML) 제2형 응력초격자 (SLS)를 활성층에 탑재한 초격자 적외선검출소자 (SLIP) 구조를 MBE 방법으로 성장하고, 직경 $200{\mu}m$의 개구면을 가지는 SLIP 개별소자를 시험 제작하였다 고분해능 투과전자현미경 (TEM) 이미지의 휘도분포와 X선회절 (XRD) 곡선의 위성피크의 분석 결과는 SLS 활성층은 균일한 층두께와 주기적 응력변형을 유지하는 급격한 계면의 초격자임을 입증하였다. 흑체복사 적외선 광원을 이용하여 측정한 입사파장 및 인가전압에 따른 반응도 (R)와 검출률 ($D^*$)로부터, 차단파장은 ${\sim}5{\mu}m$이고 최대 R과 $D^*$ ($\lambda=3.25{\mu}m$)는 각각 ${\sim}10^3mA/W$ (-0.6 V/13 K)와 ${\sim}10^9cm.Hz^{1/2}/W$ (0 V/13 K)임을 보였다. 반응도의 온도의존성으로부터 분석한 활성화에너지 275 meV는 광반응 과정에 개입되어 있는 가전대 및 전도대 부준위 사이의 에너지 간격 (HH1-C)과 잘 일치하였다. The superlattice infrared photodetector (SLIP) with an active layer of 8/8-ML InAs/GaSb type-II strained-layer superlattice (SLS) of 150 periods was grown by MBE technique, and the proto-type discrete device was defined with an aperture of $200-{\mu}m$ diameter. The contrast profile of the transmission electron microscope (TEM) image and the satellite peak in the x-ray diffraction (XRD) rocking curve show that the SLS active layer keeps abrupt interfaces with a uniform thickness and a periodic strain. The wavelength and the bias-voltage dependences of responsivity (R) and detectivity ($D^*$) measured by a blackbody radiation source give that the cutoff wavelength is ${\sim}5{\mu}m$, and the maximum Rand $D^*$ ($\lambda=3.25{\mu}m$) are ${\sim}10^3mA/W$ (-0.6 V/13 K) and ${\sim}10^9cm.Hz^{1/2}/W$ (0 V/13 K), respectively. The activation energy of 275 meV analyzed from the temperature dependent responsivity is in good agreement with the energy difference between two SLS subblevels of conduction and valence bands (HH1-C) involving in the photoresponse process.

김철,김정우,김도균 한국동물자원과학회 2000 한국축산학회지 Vol.42 No.3

The adhesive antigen K99 of Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coil strain was isolated and purified. The K99 antigen consist of single peptide with molecular mass of 18kDa and was demonstrated by Western blot analysis. In addition, the antigen-antibody reaction of K99 antigen was specifically occurred only with K99 monoclonal antibody. The antibody titer of immunized hen with adhesive antigen was shown at 2 weeks after immunization. At the time of 8 weeks, the titer of egg yolk revealed higher than that of sera. And-K99 yolk antibody did not react with different strains(K88, 987P) but reacted only with ETEC K99 strains. The immunoglobulin(IgY) content in an egg yolk and in water soluble fraction were 150㎎ and 120㎎, respectively. Thus, the recovery rate of IgY was 87 percent in this study.
