In Water Distribution Systems (WDSs), can abnormal hydraulic and water quality conditions such as red-water phenomenon and leakage occur. To restore them, data is generated through various meters data to predict and detect. However, in the case of leakage if difficult to detect unless direct exploration is performed. Among them, unreported leakage, are not seen visually and account for the most considerable volumes of leakage, which leads to economic loss. Bur direct exploration is limited through on site conditions such as securing professional manpower. In this paper, leakage volumes and location were randomly generated for the WDS, which was assumed to be calibrated, and it was detected through a deep learning model. For abnormal data generation, the leakage was simulated using the emitter coefficient, and leakage detection was successfully performed through the generated abnormal data and normal data.

Recently, deep learning-based automated systems for identifying and detecting landmarks have been proposed. In order to train such a deep learning-based model without overfitting, a large amount of image and labeling data is required. Conventionally, an experienced reader manually identifies and labels landmarks in a patient's image. However, such measurement is not only expensive, but also has poor reproducibility, so the need for an automated labeling method has been raised. In addition, in the X-ray image, since various human tissues on the path through which the photons pass are displayed, it is difficult to identify the landmark compared to a general natural image or a 3D image modality image. In this study, we propose a geometric data augmentation technique that enables the generation of a large amount of labeling data in X-ray images. In addition, the optimal attention mechanism for landmark detection was presented through the implementation and application of various attention techniques to improve the detection performance of 16 major landmarks in the skull. Finally, among the major cranial landmarks, markers that ensure stable detection are derived, and these markers are expected to have high clinical application potential.

The new medical device technologies for bio-signal information and medical information which developed in various forms have been increasing. Information gathering techniques and the increasing of the bio-signal information device are being used as the main information of the medical service in everyday life. Hence, there is increasing in utilization of the various bio-signals, but it has a problem that does not account for security reasons. Furthermore, the medical image information and bio-signal of the patient in medical field is generated by the individual device, that make the situation cannot be managed and integrated. In order to solve that problem, in this paper we integrated the QR code signal associated with the medial image information including the finding of the doctor and the bio-signal information. bio-signal. System implementation environment for medical imaging devices and bio-signal acquisition was configured through bio-signal measurement, smart device and PC. For the ROI extraction of bio-signal and the receiving of image information that transfer from the medical equipment or bio-signal measurement, .NET Framework was used to operate the QR server module on Window Server 2008 operating system. The main function of the QR server module is to parse the DICOM file generated from the medical imaging device and extract the identified ROI information to store and manage in the database. Additionally, EMR, patient health information such as OCS, extracted ROI information needed for basic information and emergency situation is managed by QR code. QR code and ROI management and the bio-signal information file also store and manage depending on the size of receiving the bio-singnal information case with a PID (patient identification) to be used by the bio-signal device. If the receiving of information is not less than the maximum size to be converted into a QR code, the QR code and the URL information can access the bio-signal information through the server. Likewise, .Net Framework is installed to provide the information in the form of the QR code, so the client can check and find the relevant information through PC and android-based smart device. Finally, the existing medical imaging information, bio-signal information and the health information of the patient are integrated over the result of executing the application service in order to provide a medical information service which is suitable in medical field.

As Global value chain(GVC) is deepening, the importance of intermediated good trade is growing in international trade issues. Such facts lead to much discussions about the relation between Global Outsourcing and pollution. This study analyzed the effect of Global outsourcing on Environment using the data including 21 industries for 2004-14. $CO_2$ intensity is used as a proxy for the environment variable and to measure Global outsourcing and I employed the method suggested by Feenstra and Hanson(1999), Amiti and Wei(2006). To examine the effect Global outsourcing on the Environment more precisely, this paper controlled the factors that can affect the environment level on the basis of the theory suggested by Copeland and Taylor(1994). In the methodology, System GMM is employed to solve endogenous problem. The results show that for overall industries, Global outsourcing effect cannot be identified and for polluting industries, the result is identical. However, Global outsourcing has a negative effect on the pollution level for China and developing countries. In other words, as Global outsourcing is increasing, the national pollution level is decreasing.

Osteoporosis is a major health issue globally, often remaining undetected until a fracture occurs. To facilitate early detection, deep learning (DL) models were developed to classify osteoporosis using abdominal computed tomography (CT) scans. This study was conducted using retrospectively collected data from 3,012 contrast-enhanced abdominal CT scans. The DL models developed in this study were constructed for using image data, demographic/clinical information, and multi-modality data, respectively. Patients were categorized into the normal, osteopenia, and osteoporosis groups based on their T-scores, obtained from dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry, into normal, osteopenia, and osteoporosis groups. The models showed high accuracy and effectiveness, with the combined data model performing the best, achieving an area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of 0.94 and an accuracy of 0.80. The image-based model also performed well, while the demographic data model had lower accuracy and effectiveness. In addition, the DL model was interpreted by gradient-weighted class activation mapping (Grad-CAM) to highlight clinically relevant features in the images, revealing the femoral neck as a common site for fractures. The study shows that DL can accurately identify osteoporosis stages from clinical data, indicating the potential of abdominal CT scans in early osteoporosis detection and reducing fracture risks with prompt treatment.
