Abstract: A recombinant vector according to an embodiment is for genome editing without inserting a replicon into the plant genome in a T0 generation plant. The recombinant vector includes a geminivirus-based replicon between the sequence of LB (left border) and sequence of RB (right border) of Ti plasmid. A method of genome editing without inserting a replicon into the plant genome in a T0 generation plant according to an embodiment includes transforming a plant cell by inserting a foreign gene to the aforementioned recombinant vector.

Abstract: In a steam turbine seal packing performance monitoring system, steam pressure is measured by installing a pressure sensor inside a seal packing for preventing steam from leaking, so that pressure information can be transmitted using magnetic field communication in order to externally monitor seal packing performance. The system includes a seal packing unit that is installed on a rotor shaft and has a plurality of seal packs disposed along an axial direction of the rotor shaft; a pressure sensor installed inside the seal packing unit to detect a pressure of steam leaked from inside the seal packing unit and to transmit a magnetic field signal by converting a detection signal indicative of the detected pressure into the magnetic field signal; and an adapter for receiving the magnetic field signal, converting the received magnetic field signal into pressure data, and calculating a leakage amount of steam based on the pressure data.

Abstract: Provided is a technology for reducing hardware cost and enabling on-chip learning in a neuromorphic system. A synapse array includes a plurality of synapse circuits, and at least one of the plurality of synapse circuits includes at least bias transistor and a switch connected in series. Synapse circuits in the same row and column direction of the synapse array are connected to each other through a shared membrane line, and a charge amount proportional to a multiplication accumulation operation required for a forward or backward operation is supplied through the membrane line and is converted into a final digital value for output through an analog to digital converter. A virtual look-up table performs in advance a calculation required for a synapse weight update for learning of at least one column of the synapse array and is updated, so that the amount of a calculation required for entire learning is reduced.
