The objective of this study is to suggest methods to improve in-home service quality through service evaluation by long-term care workers. To achieve this objective, general characteristics of 223 long-term care workers, evaluation of service and agency, and retraining needs have been surveyed. An assessment of the survey results have resulted in the following conclusions. Though long-term care workers are not uneducated, the majority face unstable employment. And the content of supervision hoped for in producing improved long-term care services has been found to be based on the service-user's relationships. Moreover, among topics needing to be addressed for retraining, much attention has been shown for understanding of the elderly and their families, health care knowledge about geriatric diseases, and counseling techniques directed towards the affected person and their family. Findings from the research are as follow: enhancing the quality of long-term care requires a structural reassessment; upgrading the quality of care agencies requires the improvement of methods used to raise awareness of users and their guardians and the expansion of opportunities for education programs for professionalism.

Chromatin is an instructive DNA structure that can widely respond to external signals. An important change of chromatin is the modifications of histone for this regulation. There are accumulating lists of these modifications and the complexity of their action is gradually understood. It is evident that histone modifications play important roles in most biological processes that are involved in the expression or repression of DNA. The surface of nucleosomes is susceptible to multiplicity of modifications. Chromatin modifications can play either by eliminating chromatin contacts or by recruiting non-histone proteins to chromatin. Many of these regulations seem to be epigenetically inherited. Thus, histone modifications are closely correlated with many fundamental biological processes in animal, plant and microbial kingdoms. Failures of histone modification lead, in general, to defective chromosome condensation or decondensation, impeding many biological functions including development, maturation, and protection against various diseases.

The Average Coordinate Referenee System (ACRS) method is developed to reduce experimental errors in human locomotion analysis. Experimentally measured kinematic data is used to conduct analysis in human modeling, and the model accuracy is directly related to the accuracy of the data. However. the accuracy is questionable due to skin movement. deformation of skeletal structure while in motion and limitations of commercial motion analysis system . In this study. the ACRS method is applied to an optically-tracked segment marker system. although it can be applied to many of the others as well. In the ACRS method, each marker can be treated independently. as the origin of a local coordinate system for its body segment. Errors, inherent in the experimental process. result in different values for the recovered Euler angles at each origin. By employing knowledge of an initial, calibrated segment reference frame, the Euler angles at each marker location can be averaged. minimizing the effect of the skin extension and rotation. Using the developed ACRS methodology the error is reduced when compared to the general Euler angle method commonly applied in motion analysis. If there is no error exist in the experimental gait data. the separation and Penetration distance of the femoraltibial joint using absolute coordinate system is supposed to be zero during one gait cycle. The separation and Penetration distance was ranged up to 18 mm using general Euler angle method and 12 mm using the developed ACRS.

Purposes of this study were to explore the process of experience that science teachers go through when participating in peer coaching meetings to improve teaching ability and to find out factors that affect each process of experience. The data were collected through recording of peer coaching meetings, videotapes of science class, and interviews. All the data were analyzed after transcription. The results of the study showed that even though Teacher K broke the ice and formed consensus among the peers by developing Content Representation (CoRe) at the beginning of the meetings, he became self-defensive rather than receptive of peers' opinions on the recorded class at the discussion session. But as the peer coaching went on, he realized that peer coaching was not about evaluation but rather on improving his teaching ability. In turn, he was able to look at his teaching in a more objective point of view and accepted suggestions from peer coaching discussion. The self-reflection of Teacher K acted as the key factor in the efforts to improve his teaching ability. He sought the concrete alternatives through the class analysis with fellow teachers and showed major changes in his teaching practice from the language habits, pronunciation, and speed of his speech to the interaction with students and class design. However, there was little change in knowledge of curriculum and assessment due to his strong orientation to improve students' grades as an academic high school teacher. Likewise, it was found that while peer coaching exert a strong influence on instructional methods and strategies of Teacher K, his strong orientation to improve students' grades hinders a balanced development of subcomponents of PCK.

With the development of genomics, wearable device and IT/NT, a vast amount of bio-medical data are generated recently. Also, healthcare industries based on big-data are booming and big-data technology based on bio-medical data is rising rapidly as a core technology for improving the national health and aged society. A pathway is the biological deep knowledge that represents the relations of dynamics and interaction among proteins, genes and cells by a network. A pathway is wildly being used as an important part of a bio-medical big-data analysis. However, a pathway analysis requires a lot of time and effort because a pathway is very diverse and high volume. Also, multidimensional analysis systems for various pathways are nonexistent even now. In this paper, we proposed a pathway analysis system that collects user interest pathways from KEGG pathway database that supports the most widely used pathways, constructs a network based on a hierarchy structure of pathways and analyzes the relations of dynamics and interaction among pathways by clustering and selecting core pathways from the network. Finally, to verify the superiority of our pathway analysis system, we evaluate the performance of our system in various experiments.

The purpose of this study is to develop HTE-STEAM program using natural disasters for high school students and to verify their attitude and satisfaction with STEAM. We developed the HTE-STEAM program utilizing natural disasters and tested the effectiveness of 243 students from G High School and N High School. For data analysis, a single group pretest and post response t-test were conducted to verify the effects on attitudes and satisfaction with STEAM. The research results are as follows. First, we developed STEAM education programs for high school students by selecting the topic of "natural disasters" in the area of earth science and flying drones as lifesaving drones. The six-hour program was designed to give students the experience to solve problems by applying essential knowledge related to natural disasters and drones, and what they learned in other situations. Second, there was a significant statistical test result in the t-test of the corresponding sample by the difference between the pre and post score of the STEAM attitude test (p <.05). The drone-based HTE-STEAM program had a significant improvement in the overall attitude toward STEAM education, which consists of seven subfactors. Third, in the HTE-STEAM satisfaction test, the average value of the lower job offer was 3.64 ~ 3.76, which showed a positive response overall. It is judged that the students' satisfaction is improved through the students' understanding of the problem situation and the design of creative convergence and production process.

이 논문은 독일어의 겹자음회피현상을 설명함에 있어 어휘음운론에서의 분석이 보이는 문제들을 지적하고, 이 문제들이 제약에 바탕을 둔 이론에서는 어떻게 해결될 수 있는가를 보인다. 제약들간의 상호작용에서 특히 중요한 역할을 하는 것이 단일형태실현제약 (Uniform Exponence)으로서, 이 제약을 통해 독일어 동사의 현재시제, 단수, 2인칭 형태와 3인칭형태에서 나타나는 겹자음회피현상이 동사의 어형변화표 (Verbparadigma)와 밀접한 관련이 있음을 알 수 있다. 이는 규칙들을 통해 2인칭과 3인칭의 올바른 형태를 각각 개별적으로 찾아내는 어휘음운론의 분석과는 근본적으로 다르다. 왜냐하면 어휘음운론의 분석에 따를 때, 예를 들어 3인칭 동사 arbeitet에서 Schwa 모음의 삽입은 겹자음회피를 위해 일어난다고 설명되지만 겹자음이 없음에도 불구하고 Schwa 모음이 마찬가지로 삽입되는 2인칭동사 arbeitest는 설명되지 않기 때문이다. 이런 분석에서는 2인칭 형태와 3인칭 형태가 서로 아무런 관련 없이 각기 따로 존재하게된다. 이에 반해 단일형태제약은 이 두개의 형태를 동시에 비교하므로, 동사 굴절형태에서 마치 불필요한 것으로 보이는 모음삽입이나 자음탈락의 원인에 대해 이론적인 근거를 제시할 수 있다. 즉 2인칭 형태와 3인칭 형태는 보다 상위의 제약들이 막지 않는 한 서로 최대한 비슷한 형태를 가지려고 한다. 이 논문은 겹자음 회피를 위한 수단으로서 모음삽입이나 자음탈락은 오로지 이를 통해 동사의 어형변화표가 좋아질 때만 가능하다는 것을 보여줌으로써 규칙이론이 포착하지 못하고 있는 중요한 일반화를 제시하고 있다. 단일형태 실현제약의 중요성은 접두사 in- 과 un- 이 어간과 결합할 때 보이는 대조를 통해서도 확인된다. 여기서도 어휘음운론의 다층어휘부 구조에 의한 설명이 갖는 문제점이 제약들간의 상호작용을 통해 해결될 수 있음을 알 수 있다.VII-1 및 VII-2공의 3600 m 하부층은 건성 가스 생성 단계에까지 도달한 것으로 나타났다.

The automated prediction system for seasonal tropical cyclone (TC) activity is established at the National Typhoon Center of the Korea Meteorological Administration (KMA) to provide effective operation and control of the system for user who lacks knowledge of the system. For automation of the system, two procedures which include subjective decisions by user are performed in advance, and their output data are provided as input data. To provide the capability to understand the operational processes for operational user, the input and output data are summarized with each process, and the directory structure is reconstructed following KMA's standard. We introduce a user interface using namelist input parameters to effectively control operational conditions which is fixed or should be manually set in the previous version of the prediction system. To operationally use early prediction which become available through the automation, its performances are evaluated according to initial condition dates. As a result, high correlations between the observed and predicted TC counts are kept for all track clusters even though advancing the initial condition date from May to January.

간세포암은 우리나라에서 전체 암사망자 중 17.2%로 3번째의 흔한 사망원인이며, 간암에 의한 사망률은 인구 10만 명당 약 21명에 이른다. 본 논문에서는 간 내부에서 발생하는 간세포암을 CT 영상에서 자동으로 추출하는 방법을 제안하여 간세포암의 보조진단으로서의 유용성에 대해 알아보고자 한다. 간 내부의 종양을 추출하기 위해 흉부의 윗부분에서 시작하여 2.5mm의 간격으로 약 45-50장 정도를 촬영한 CT 영상들을 대상으로 먼저 간 영역을 추출한다. 간 영역 추출은 먼저 관심이 없는 외부 영역을 갈비뼈를 중심으로 제거한 후 영상의 밝기 정보를 이용하여 각 기관의 영역을 분할 한다. 분할된 영역들은 위 아래로 인접한 영상에서의 분할 영역들과 밝기 값을 비교하여 적절하게 병합하는 3차원적 접근방법을 사용한다. 간 영역은 여러개의 영역들 중에서 간 영역의 구조 및 위치 등의 정보를 활용하여 추출한다. 추출된 간 영역에서 종양 판별과 추출을 위해 종양이 가지는 특징을 분석하여 종양을 추출한다. 전형적인 간세포암은 과혈관성 종양이므로 조영증강 CT 영상에서 주위보다 밝은 색으로 나타나며, 팽창 형성장을 보일 경우에는 구형으로 나타나는 특징이 있다. 이에, 주위 보다 밝은 색을 가지고 둥근형태를 가지는 영역을 종양의 후보영역으로 선정한 후, 그 영상의 위와 아래로 연결되는 영상에서도 같은 위치에서 같은 특징을 보이는 영역이 있으면 간 내부의 종양으로 판별하여 추출한다. 제안된 간 영역 및 간 종양 추출 방법의 정확성을 판별하기 위하여 CT 영상을 대상으로 실험하여 영상의학 전문의가 판단한 결과와 비교하였다. 간 영역 추출은 정확히 모두 추출되었으며, 간 종양 추출 및 판별은 전문의의 보조 진단도구로 활용할 수 있는 가능성이 매우 높다는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.emantic Similarity Measure 등을 단계적으로 수행하여 자동화되고 정확한 규칙식별을 하고자 한다. 이러한 방법들의 조합으로 인하여 규칙구성요소 추출이 되지 않을 후보 단어들의 수를 줄여서 보다 더 정확하고, 지능적인 규칙구성요소 추출 방법론을 제시하고 구현하여 지식관리자의 규칙습득에 대한 부담을 줄여 주고자 한다. 도움을 받을 수 있게 되었다.을 거치도록 되어있다. 교통주제도는 국가의 교통정책결정과 관련분야의 기초자료로서 다양하게 활용되고 있으며, 특히 ITS 노드/링크 기본지도로 활용되는 등 교통 분야의 중요한 지리정보로서 구축되고 있다..20{\pm}0.37L$, 72시간에 $1.33{\pm}0.33L$로 유의한 차이를 보였으므로(F=6.153, P=0.004), 술 후 폐환기능 회복에 효과가 있다. 4) 실험군과 대조군의 수술 후 노력성 폐활량은 수술 후 72시간에서 실험군이 $1.90{\pm}0.61L$, 대조군이 $1.51{\pm}0.38L$로 유의한 차이를 보였다(t=2.620, P=0.013). 5) 실험군과 대조군의 수술 후 일초 노력성 호기량은 수술 후 24시간에서 $1.33{\pm}0.56L,\;1.00{\ge}0.28L$로 유의한 차이를 보였고(t=2.530, P=0.017), 술 후 72시간에서 $1.72{\pm}0.65L,\;1.33{\pm}0.3L$로 유의한 차이를 보였다(t=2.540, P=0.016). 6) 대상자의 술 후 폐환기능에 영향을 미치는 요인은 성별로 나타났다. 이에 따른 폐환기능의 차이를 보면, 실험군의 술 후 노력성 폐활량이 48시간에 남자($1.78{\pm}0.61L$)가 여자(
