Abstract: A method and an apparatus for outputting a full name voice of a unit or an abbreviation are provided. The method includes detecting a unit or an abbreviation from a text to be output as a voice, searching a full name database for the detected unit or abbreviation to acquire a full name of the detected unit or abbreviation, converting the acquired full name of the unit or abbreviation into a voice and outputting the voice. A context of a text content is parsed to be converted into a voice of an appropriate term so as to transmit accurate meaning information appropriate for a situation. This provides a huge help to a user and a visually handicapped person who has a low accessibility to a webpage. Also, a webpage and a mobile provide a smart talkback service for the accessibility of the visually handicapped person.

Abstract: The present invention provides a three-dimensional nanofibrous scaffold for tissue regeneration, which is increased in porosity and thickness to enlarge the surface area thereof, thereby enabling cell adhesion at a high density, and a method for fabricating the same. The method for fabricating a three-dimensional nanofibrous scaffold for tissue regeneration includes the steps of: (a) preparing a polymer solution; (b) preparing a nanofiber matrix, in which a plurality of nanofibers is entangled with each other, from the polymer solution prepared in step (a) using electrospinning; and (c) immersing the prepared nanofiber matrix in a solution and subjecting the solution to ultrasonication, thereby increasing the thickness and porosity of the nanofiber matrix.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for performing an image forming job by maintaining a cover, which covers a scan area and has adjustable transparency, in a transparent state until a job for acquiring image data of a scan object starts in an image forming apparatus. If the job for acquiring the image data of the scan object positioned in the scan area starts, the image forming apparatus converts the cover into an opaque state and acquires the image data of the scan object. If the job for acquiring the image data of the scan object is ended, the image forming apparatus reconverts the cover into a transparent state. Therefore, efficiency of a job for acquiring image data of a scan object is improved.
