Abstract: The present invention relates to cosmetic compositions and more particularly to skin-whitening cosmetic compositions comprising senkyunolide A as an active ingredient. The present invention discloses the novel inhibitory function of senkyunolide A isolated from Cnidium officinale and Ligusticum chuanxiong on the melanocyte-stimulating hormone (MSH), and provides MSH-inhibitory compositions and skin-whitening cosmetic compositions comprising the senkyunolide A. The compositions of the present invention show significantly enhanced skin-whitening effect owing to its efficient inhibition of MSH even in lower concentration.

Abstract: Provided are a method and apparatus for reproducing at least one piece of content received via at least one interface. The method includes classifying the at least one piece of content respectively received via the at least one interface according to a reference attribute, allocating the classified at least one piece of content to a virtual channel, and selecting a channel from among set channels that include the virtual channel and an occupied basic channel.

Abstract: Disclosed are a method and a system that adaptively transform visual contents inputted from a network, in accordance with the visual characteristics of a terminal user. A visual characteristics descriptor that describes the information of the user visual characteristics in a predetermined format is proposed. The descriptor includes the information of the color vision deficiency type and the color vision deficiency degree. The color vision deficiency may be described in numerical degree or textual degree. The invention adaptively transforms visual contents differently in accordance with the color vision deficiency type.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for reproducing content by using metadata are provided. In the method, a metadata file and a content file are obtained, wherein the metadata file comprises at least one of learned content reproduction pattern information and reproduction management information; the content file is reproduced based on the at least one of the learned content reproduction pattern information and the reproduction management information of the metadata file; and the metadata file is updated based on the at least one of the learned content reproduction pattern information and the reproduction management information.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a cosmetic composition for preventing photoaging, containing an extract of Magnolia sieboldii as an active ingredient. Also disclosed is a cosmetic composition for reducing skin wrinkles containing an extract of Magnolia sieboldii as an active ingredient. The extract of Magnolia sieboldii can protect the skin against UV lights and skin damage by suppressing skin cell death and cell DNA damage, and can reduce skin wrinkles by promoting the biosynthesis of collagen and suppressing the synthesis of collagenases. Also, the cosmetic composition containing the extract of Magnolia sieboldii has an excellent effect of inhibiting skin damage caused by UV lights, and an excellent effect of reducing skin wrinkles.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a method for generating a test signal for testing the accuracy of the CINR measurement of a subscriber station. The method includes step (a) of checking a preamble code corresponding to a predetermined cell ID, reading corresponding preamble data from a preamble code table, and taking it as desired preamble data, step (b) of completing generation of desired signal data by generating desired pilot data and various information data, step (c) of randomly selecting one preamble code from among preamble codes corresponding to cell IDs other than the cell ID, reading corresponding preamble data from the preamble code table, and taking the preamble data as interference preamble data, step (d) of generating interference pilot data, and step (e) of generating test signal data by adding the interference preamble data and the interference pilot data to the desired signal data.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a novel retinol derivative and a cosmetic composition comprising the same, in particular, to a novel retinol derivative represented by the formula (I) exhibiting the effects from both L-ascorbic acid and retinol as well as being free from the disadvantages of two compounds such as skin irritation and instability in cosmetic formulation, and a cosmetic composition comprising the retinol derivative.

Abstract: Disclosed are a method and a system that could adaptively improve the visual quality of people with low-vision impairment, regardless of network and terminal. The low-vision impairment is described by a set of “symptoms” that is semantically defined. As the description tool of low vision impairments, it is flexible and reliable to use the proposed “symptoms” based descriptions rather than individually identified names of eye disease, because the user can describe his/her low-vision impairment by specifying associated symptoms based on his/her own experience. The inputted visual contents are adaptively transformed according to the low vision-impairment.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method and apparatus for clearly detecting color information in front of a vehicle, and an object of the present invention is to accurately and efficiently show color-related traffic information, such as traffic lights and signs, and the whole color information of objects to color-blind people including people with dichromacy or anomalous trichromacy. The present invention provides a method of compensating for the colors of video frame data provided by a front camera, which includes the steps of compensating the video frame data, which is output from the camera, for external environment, such as surrounding colors and brightness, selecting a color range preferred by a user, compensating for the colors of the color-compensated video frame data according to the user's color blindness degree that was input or will be input, and transmitting external scenes, such as the front scene of the vehicle, to the user using a user interface considering user preference.

Abstract: The present invention concerns stabilized cosmetic material containing triple-encapsulated retinol. Unstable, fat-soluble retinol is stabilized firstly by addition into vesicles consisting of nonionic surface-active agent, cholesterol and cholesteryl ester. The firstly stabilized retinol(vesicle) is subsequently inserted into sphingosomes (a kind of multi lamellar liposome) consisting of lecithin and ceramide. Finally the double-encapsulated retinol (sphingosome) is inserted into lamellar liquid-crystal emulsifying base, thereby being triply encapsulated.
