    Abstract Blockchain has introduced a new era for online payment services and its economy with tamper-proof cryptocurrencies. However, blockchain, which is based on global peer-to-peer networks, has its limitations due to payment delays from global consensus and transaction costs for maintenance. Thus, payment channel networks (PCN) have been proposed as one of the most promising off-chain solutions, allowing users to pay directly through payment channels (PC), with minimal blockchain involvement. However, payment delays and cost problems still exist, especially given the large size of the PCN. This study proposes a multiparty payment channel (MPC) that enables multiple users to join the same PC and exchange payment transactions, compared to the legacy PC. To avoid a consensus procedure among users in the PC, we introduce sequential and parallel updates for the PC status. Since increasing the MPC size limits the advantages in terms of the delay and cost, we propose a distributed coalition formation algorithm to form the MPC group, in which each user has the choice to join or leave the group. Simulations show that the proposed algorithm establishes MPCs successfully, considering the trade-off between the payoff gain and the MPC delay cost.

    Abstract This study investigates the impact of biased language, specifically 'Words that Wound,' on sentiment analysis in a dataset of 45,379 South Korean daily economic news articles. Using Word2Vec, cosine similarity, and an expanded lexicon, we analyzed the influence of these words on news titles' sentiment scores. Our findings reveal that incorporating biased language significantly amplifies sentiment scores' intensity, particularly negativity. The research examines the effect of heightened negativity in news titles on the KOSPI200 index using linear regression and sentiment analysis. Results indicate that the augmented sentiment lexicon (Sent1000), which includes the top 1,000 negative words with high cosine similarity to 'Crisis,' more effectively captures the impact of news sentiment on the stock market index than the original KNU sentiment lexicon (Sent0). The ARDL model and Impulse Response Function (IRF) analyses disclose that Sent1000 has a stronger and more persistent impact on KOSPI200 compared to Sent0. These findings emphasize the importance of understanding language's role in shaping market dynamics and investor sentiment, particularly the impact of negatively biased language on stock market indices. The study highlights the need for considering context and linguistic nuances when analyzing news content and its potential effects on public opinion and market dynamics.

    Abstract Three-dimensional (3D) bioprinting, an effective technique for building cell-laden structures providing native extracellular matrix environments, presents challenges, including inadequate cellular interactions. To address these issues, cell spheroids offer a promising solution for improving their biological functions. Particularly, minispheroids with 50-100 μm diameters exhibit enhanced cellular maturation. We propose a one-step minispheroid-forming bioprinting process incorporating electrical stimulation (E-MS-printing). By stimulating the cells, minispheroids with controlled diameters were generated by manipulating the bioink viscosity and stimulation intensity. To validate its feasibility, E-MS-printing process was applied to fabricate an engineered liver model designed to mimic the hepatic lobule unit. E-MS-printing was employed to print the hepatocyte region, followed by bioprinting the central vein using a core-shell nozzle. The resulting constructs displayed native liver-mimetic structures containing minispheroids, which facilitated improved hepatic cell maturation, functional attributes, and vessel formation. Our results demonstrate a new potential 3D liver model that can replicate native liver tissues.

    Abstract Objectives: Observing cumulative and new daily confirmed cases of COVID-19, disease control authorities respond to a surge in cases with social distancing measures or economic lockdown. The question in this article is whether we can gather more useful information from a readily available time series data set of day-to-day changes in confirmed cases of COVID-19.
    Study design: Time-series data analysis was done using a hidden Markov model.
    Methods: Day-to-day differences in confirmed cases of COVID-19 in Korea from February 19, 2020, to July 13, 2021, were modeled via a hidden Markov model. The results from the model were compared with the effective reproduction number and the Korean government's response.
    Results: The model reports that Korea was in an epidemic phase from August 2020 and from mid-November 2020, the second and third epidemic waves. The government's response, represented by the Government Response Stringency Index, was not timely during the epidemic phases. The results from the model may also be more helpful to detect the onset of the epidemic phase of an infectious disease than the effective reproduction number.
    Conclusions: The model can reveal a hidden epidemic phase and help disease control authorities to respond more promptly and effectively.

    Abstract Background: Emotion regulation tendencies are well-known transdiagnostic markers of psychopathology, but their neurobiological foundations have mostly been examined within the theoretical framework of cortical-subcortical interactions.
    Methods: We explored the connectome-wide neural correlates of emotion regulation tendencies using functional and diffusion magnetic resonance images of healthy young adults (
    Results: First, interindividual similarity of emotion regulation profiles was significantly correlated with interindividual similarity of the functional-structural hybrid connectome, more so than either the functional or structural connectome. Canonical correlation analysis revealed that an adaptive-to-maladaptive gradient of emotion regulation tendencies mapped onto a specific configuration of covariance within the functional-structural hybrid connectome, which primarily involved functional connections in the motor network and the visual networks as well as structural connections in the default mode network and the subcortical-cerebellar network. In the transdiagnostic adolescent dataset, stronger functional signatures of the found network were associated with higher general positive affect through more frequent use of adaptive coping strategies.
    Conclusions: Taken together, our study illustrates a gradient of emotion regulation tendencies that is best captured when simultaneously considering the functional and structural connections across the whole brain.

    Abstract Chemical mechanical polishing/planarization (CMP) is an essential manufacturing process in semiconductor technologies. This method combines chemical and mechanical forces to smooth the surfaces of wafers. The effectiveness of CMP relies on a carefully chosen slurry, demanding a sophisticated manufacturing technology. This technology must seamlessly integrate both chemical composition and mechanical elements, highlighting the intricate synergy required for successful semiconductor fabrication. Particularly in milling processes, if agglomerated particles due to slurry particle corrosion are present during polishing, uneven polishing, numerous fine scratches occur, leading to an increase in roughness and a deterioration in the quality of the finished surface. In this study, to overcome the issue of particle agglomeration and uneven polishing in commonly used ceria nanoparticle slurries during CMP processes, we investigated the ceria nanoparticle behavior based on styrene-maleic acid (SMA) dispersant polymer applied with three types of defoaming polymers. The investigations are expected to open up the possibility of utilizing ceria nanoparticles with applied defoaming polymer as an abrasive for advanced CMP applications. All samples were characterized by DLS (dynamic light scattering), SEM-EDX (scanning electron microscopy-energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy), pH, conductivity, viscosity, a 10-day stability test at 60 °C, the AF4 test, and the polishing rate efficiency test. Our research demonstrates a significant improvement achieved through the use of SMA dispersant polymer, resulting in a polishing selection ratio exceeding 80 for oxide and nitride films. The G-336 defoaming polymer utilized here is expected to serve as a viable alternative in CMP processes by providing stable uniformity.
