This study investigates the integration of astronomy-related topics in the Korean national science curricula spanning from 1945 to 2023. We analyze the placement and extent of astronomy content across different school levels. Astronomy contents in the science curricula have changed in response to social needs (e.g., practical knowledge required for agriculture and fishery) and advancement in astronomical research (e.g., the discovery of exoplanets and the suggestion of new cosmological parameters). Contents addressing the motions of celestial objects and stellar physical properties have remained relatively consistent. In the latest 2022 revised national curriculum, scheduled for implementation in 2024, several elements, such as coordinate systems, have been removed, while the inquiry activities using digital tools are emphasized. The incorporation of the cosmic perspectives in the national curriculum, as well as astronomy education within the context of education for sustainable development, remains limited even in the most recent curriculum. For future life revisions, the active participation of researchers is needed to reflect the latest astronomical research progress and scientific characteristics in the field of astronomy.

This study aimed to investigate which areas AI is sensitive when inputting panoramic radiographs with dental area masked and when inputting unmasked ones. Therefore, the null hypothesis of this study was that masking dental area would not make a difference in the sensitive areas of osteoporosis determination of AI. For this study 1165 female(average age 48.4 ± 23.9 years) from whom panoramic radiographs were taken were selected. Either osteoporosis or normal should be clearly defined by oral and maxillofacial radiologists. The panoramic radiographs from the female were classified as either osteoporosis or normal according to the mandibular inferior cortex shape. VGG-16 model was used to get training, validating, and testing to determine between osteoporosis or normal. Two experiments were performed; one using unmasked images of panoramic radiographs, and the other using panoramic radiographs with dental region masked. In two experiments, accuracy of VGG-16 was 97.9% with unmasked images and 98.6% with dental-region-masked images. In the osteoporosis group, the sensitive areas identified with unmasked images included cervical vertebrae, maxillary and mandibular cancellous bone, dental area, zygomatic bone, mandibular inferior cortex, and cranial base. The osteoporosis group shows sensitivity on mandibular cancellous bone, cervical vertebrae, and mandibular inferior cortex with masked images. In the normal group, when unmasked images were input, only dental region was sensitive, while with masked images, only mandibular cancellous bone was sensitive. It is suggestive that when dental influence of panoramic radiographs was excluded, AI determined osteoporosis on the mandibular cancellous bone more sensitively.

The purpose of this study was to verify the sensitive areas when the AI determines osteoporosis for the entire area of the panoramic radiograph. Panoramic radiographs of a total of 1,156 female patients(average age of 49.0±24.0 years) were used for this study. The panoramic radiographs were diagnosed as osteoporosis and the normal by Oral and Maxillofacial Radiology specialists. The VGG16 deep learning convolutional neural network(CNN) model was used to determine osteoporosis and the normal from testing 72 osteoporosis(average age of 73.7±8.0 years) and 93 normal(average age of 26.4±5.1 years). VGG16 conducted a gradient-weighted class activation mapping(Grad-CAM) visualization to indicate sensitive areas when determining osteoporosis. The accuracy of CNN in determining osteoporosis was 100%. Heatmap image from 72 panoamic radiographs of osteoporosis revealed that CNN was sensitive to the cervical vertebral in 70.8%(51/72), the cortical bone of the lower mandible in 72.2%(52/72), the cranial base area in 30.6%(22/72), the cancellous bone of the mandible in 33.3%(24/72), the cancellous bone of the maxilla in 20.8%(15/72), the zygoma in 8.3%(6/72), and the dental area in 5.6%(4/72). Consideration: it was found that the cervical vertebral area and the cortical bone of the lower mandible were sensitive areas when CNN determines osteoporosis in the entire area of panoramic radiographs.

E171, a mixture of titanium dioxide, has been widely used as a food additive due to its whitening effect and low toxicity. However, it has been proven that E171 is no longer safe for public health. So far, there are insufficient studies on the toxic effects of E171 on organisms especially using standardized test methods. In this study, toxicity assessments of E171 to two aquatic species, water flea (Daphnia magna) and zebrafish (Danio rerio), were performed using modified standardized test methods based on the physicochemical properties of E171. The hydrodynamic diameter, polydispersity index, and turbiscan stability index (TSI) were measured to ensure the dispersion stability of E171 in exposure media during the test period. The EC50 for immobilization of water flea was 141.7 mg L-1 while zebrafish was not affected until 100 mg L-1 of E171. Measurements of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and antioxidant enzyme activities confirmed that E171 induced oxidative stress, leading to the activation of superoxide dismutase and catalase in both water flea and zebrafish, although the expression of antioxidant enzyme genes differed between species. These results suggested the potential risk of E171 to aquatic organisms and provided toxicological insights into the impacts of E171 on the environment.

Although monitoring of radon has been extensively implemented throughout South Korea, the risk assessment has been mainly limited to indoor environments such as schools, workplaces, and multi-use facilities, and evaluations have normally been performed separately. In this study, the differences in radon exposure according to two groups (< 1 and 1-6 years old) were evaluated considering various indoor and outdoor environments, timeactivity patterns, variations in radon concentrations, and dwelling type (single detached and apartment house) using Monte-Carlo simulation. The distribution and representative values of radon concentration by micro-environments were confirmed through the Anders-Darling test, and a uniform distribution was applied in case of uncertainty. The effective dose ranged from 1.81 ± 1.19 to 2.81 ± 3.02mSv/y. Comparing the levels recommended by EPA, WHO, and ICRP with the value of the 95th percentile of this study, it was found that the results for those dwelling in detached houses exceeded recommended levels. Infants that spend a lot of time in homes with relatively high levels of concentration of radon are assessed to be somewhat more vulnerable to radon exposure.

The aim of this study was to investigate radiographic features of osteosclerosis on digital panoramic radiographs. Osteoscleosis was diagnosed with its radiographic features of amorphous non- expansible radiopacity with unknown etiology. In diagosing osteosclerosis, differential diagnosis is needed from periapical cemental dysplasia, osteoma, benign cementoblastoma, and anatomic structures. Fifty-eight osteosclerosis on digital panoramic radiopgraphs from 46 patients with osteoscleosis were selected for this study. All of the osteosclerosis were found in the mandible. Among them, 53(91.4%) occurred on the posterior region. The mean diameter was 9.1㎜. The internal structure was radiopaque in 39(67.2%) and mixed radiolucent and radiopaque in 19(35.3%). There was no specific effect on the surrounding structures. In 16(27.6%), partial or complete radiolucent margin was noted which might be digital image artifact by enhancement.

본 연구의 목적은 한국 외식기업의 해외시장 진입유형 선택의 결정 요인을 제도이론을 적용하여 검증하는 것이 다. 외식기업에게 중요한 시장지원제도인 지적재산권 보호, 무역 자유, 투자 자유가 진입유형 선택에 어떻게 영향 을 미치는지 분석하였다. 통제와 자원투입 수준에 따라 진입유형을 거래형, 제휴형, 투자형으로 구분하여 순서형 로지스틱 회귀분석으로 검증한 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 현지의 지적재산권 보호 제도가 취약할수록 통제와 자 원투입 수준이 높은 진입유형을 선택하는 것으로 나타났다. 이는 외식기업의 경영 성과에 중요한 지적재산권이 제대로 보호되지 않을 경우 기업은 이를 보호하기 위해 투자 부담이 증가하더라도 통제력이 높은 진입유형을 선 택하기 때문인 것으로 해석된다. 둘째, 무역 자유 제도가 엄격하게 시행될수록 통제와 자원투입 수준이 높은 진 입유형을 선택하는 것으로 나타났다. 외식업은 음식의 맛과 가격이 중요하므로 한국에서와 동일한 맛을 외국에서 구현하기 위해서는 식재료의 반입 가능성과 조달 비용이 매우 중요하다. 따라서 자유무역이 보장되면 필수 식재 료를 한국에서 직접 반출하여 맛과 가격경쟁력을 확보하려는 유인이 작용하는 것으로 볼 수 있다. 이렇게 거래를 내부화 하려는 것은 한식 식재료들이 해외 시장에서 활발하게 거래되는 품목이 아니기 때문에 현지에서 구하기 어려울 뿐 아니라 가격도 매우 비싸기 때문이다. 셋째, 투자 자유 제도에 대한 가설은 유의확률이 높아 채택되지 않았는데, 이는 외식기업의 특성상 마스터 프랜차이즈 계약을 하더라도 본사의 통제력이 상당 정도 확보되기 때 문인 것으로 유추된다. 본 연구는 한국 외식기업이 해외시장에 진출할 때 현지의 시장지원제도에 따라 진입 전략 에 변화를 준다는 것을 실증적으로 규명했다는 점에서 중요한 의미를 갖는다.

Bongik-dong, Kwonnong-dong, Ikseon-dong and Nakwon-dong are areas around Donhwamun-ro in Seoul. These residential areas began to be developed collectively from the 1920s and the construction period was the fastest among hanok residences collectively formed in urban center. At that time, houses were developed with high density. In the 1920s, many medium-sized plots of less than 3,300㎡ were distributed around Donhwamun-ro. Private developers such as Jeong Se-kwon(Konyangsa), Shin Tae-jong, and Yoon Heung-rim, who were active at the time, purchased medium-sized plots. Developers sold out the land directly or after constructing Hanok on the divided plot and then selling them. This method of developing hanok residences by private developers in the 1920s have influenced on hanok residences which began to be developed after the 1930s. Currently, many urban Hanoks still remain in areas around Donhwamun-ro. The initial aspects of the hanok development in the 1920s could be grasped through blocks, plot division, alleys, row house Hanok etc around Donhwamun-ro.

This study was performed as a part of serial experiments of applying convolutional neural network(CNN) in determining osteoporosis on panoramic radiograph. The purpose of this study was to investigate how sensitively CNN determine osteoporosis on cropped panoramic radiograph. Panoramic radiographs from 1268 female patients(mean age 45.2 ± 21.1 yrs) were selected for this study. For the osteoporosis group, 633(mean age 72.2 ± 8.5 yrs) were selected, while for the normal group 635(mean age 28.3 ± 7.0 yrs). AlexNet was utilized as CNN in this study. A multiple-column CNN was designed with two rectangular regions of interest on the mandible inferior area. An occluding method was used to analyze the sensitive area in determining osteoporosis on AlexNet. Testing of AlexNet showed accuracy of 99% in determining osteoporosis on panoramic radiographs. AlexNet was sensitive at the area of cortical and cancellous bone of the mandible inferior area including adjacent soft tissue.

Deep convolutional network is a deep learning approach to optimize image recognition. This study aimed to apply DCNN to the reading of mandibular cortical thinning in digital panoramic radiographs. Digital panoramic radiographs of 1,268 female dental patients (age 45.2 ± 21.1yrs) were used in the reading of the mandibular cortical bone by two maxillofacial radiologists. Among the subjects, 535 normal subject’s panoramic radiographs (age 28.6 ±7.4 yrs) and 533 those of osteoporosis pationts (age 72.1 ± 8.7 yrs) with mandibular cortical thinning were used for training DCNN. In the testing of mandibular cortical thinning, 100 panoramic radiographs of normal subjects (age 26.6 ± 4.5 yrs) and 100 mandibular cortical thinning (age 72.5 ± 7.2 yrs) were used. The sensitive area of DCNN to mandibular cortical thinning was investigated by occluding analysis. The readings of DCNN were compared by two maxillofacial radiologists. DCNN showed 97.5% accuracy, 96% sensitivity, and 99% specificity in reading mandibular cortical thinning. DCNN was sensitively responded on the cancellous and cortical bone of the mandibular inferior area. DCNN was effective in diagnosing mandibular cortical thinning.

The Don-am district is a residential area that was supplied in 1936 as a land readjustment project(Tojiguhoekjeongri). The Don-am district was newly supplied with residential areas and urban hanoks were built in large numbers. The Don-am district was influenced by urban planning and legislation at that time. These affected in the layout and plan of urban hanok. Residential block in the Don-am district were developed sequentially from the late 1930s to the 1960s. Residential block were divided by modern construction company and sold by individual lots. The blocks supplied to the Don-am district made uniformly the corner out-off(Ga gak) for creating a vehicle-centered road. So urban hanoks located in the corner plot was transformed in response to the road. Residential blocks in Don-am district was divided into three to four rows. Therefore, alleys were created inside the block. Newly made alleys consist of a privately owned road(Sa-do), a public road(Gong-Do), and open space in the site. And the alleys were used as an entry space for sharing with neighboring. Urban hanoks of Don-am district have had changed and adapted to the formation of these alleys.

이 글은 60년대 이청준 소설을 프로이트 정신분석학과 아도르노 비판미학과의 관계 속에서 탐구하였다. 의학지식의 대중화를 통해 문학 분야에 적극 유입 됐던 프로이트 정신분석학과 한국 지식담론장의 비판인식에 영향을 끼쳤던 아도르노 비판미학이 어떻게 구조화되었는지를 탐구한 것으로 이를 통해 구원의 서사로서 이청준 소설이 갖는 의미를 해명하고자 했다. 이청준 소설은 이윤의 목적성에 훼손된 근대의 부정성을 공격하며 자본의 논리에서 자유로운 무목적적 미의 세계를 유토피아로 투시한다. 현실에 대한 분노를 가학적 공격성을 통해 표현하는데 여기에 문화지식이 중층적으로 개입된다. 타나토스의 본능을 위험한 충동으로 부정한 프로이트 정신분석학이 고통으로만 구원이 투시될 수 있다고 강조한 아도르노 미학을 경유하여 비판적으로 전유되고 있다. 소통과 화해 대신 분노와 불화를 통해 구원을 모색하는 것으로 격자소설 양식, 성찰적 서술자 운용, 거짓말과 말없음 등 전통 문법을 해체하는 형식적 고안들도 비판미학과 연결된다. 이를 통해 문화지식담론을 전유하며 유토피아를 희구한 이청준의 구원의식과 사회의식이 온당하게 이해되며 70년대 이후로 비판미학의 수용 시기를 진단한 연구도 재론될 수 있다. 이론이나 잡지와 함께 소설은 문화지식 수용의 텍스트로 의미를 가지며 그러한 점에서 60년대 이청준 소설은 아도르노미학 수용에 중요한 시사점을 제공한다.

Since its construction in the late 14th century, Hanyangdoseong had been carried out three major repairs and reconstructions during the 500 years of the Joseon Dynasty. In addition to the large-scale construction, small-scale construction continued until King Gojong era. In particular, in the 18th century, systematic construction management was implemented by the craftsmen and the military participated in the renovation of Hanyangdoseong in earnest, and the construction methods also developed rapidly. In the early 18th century, new construction techniques were attempted in various sections of the reconstruction work, and gradually became a common technology for repairing Hanyangdoseong in the late 18th century. The purpose of this study is to examine the characteristics and period of changes in the 18th century's construction technique, when the rapid development of Hanyangdoseong took place. To this end, the excavation results related to Hanyangdoseong, the remaining city wall, and the inscribed stones were used to identify and demonstrate the characteristics and change of the construction method.
