본 논문에서는 입력 영상의 컬러 정보를 이용함으로써 조명 변화나 얼굴의 자세 변화에 둔감하게 얼굴 정보를 고속 검출하는 알고리듬을 제안하였다 계산복잡도가 작으면서도, 조명의 변화에 민감하지 않은 특성을 가진 NCC (normalized color component) 좌표계에서 정의한 살색에 기반하여 얼굴 후보 영역을 검출하고, 검출된 얼굴 후보 영역 내에서의 눈의 검출에도 색상 분포 특성을 이용함으로써 얼굴의 숙임(nod), 돌림(shake), 기울임(tilt)등에 의한 자세 변화에 대해서도 둔감하게 두 눈의 위치를 고속으로 찾도록 하였다. 특히 집중자(concentrator)를 제안 적용하여 유동적인 눈썹의 영향을 줄이고 눈안의 중심 위치를 찾도록 가중치 눈지도(eye map)를 도입하였다. 제안된 알고리듬이 조명 변화나 얼굴의 다양한 자세 변화가 있는 영상에서 얼굴 후보 영역과 두 눈의 위치를 효과적으로 검출함을 실험을 통해 확인하였다.

Subjects will flex and extend their knees in a prone posture while keeping the pelvis in a neutral state after having straightened the knees and hip. The angle of the manual measurement of an average person when bent is between $110^{\circ}{\sim}135^{\circ}$. If the person complains of pain at the time of flexion, it signifies the presence of abnormality in the knee joints and muscles. The number and proportion of the patients were measured through this experiment.

This paper deals with the movement of the human neck bone. The neck bone is also called a cervical spine. Measure the angle of lateral flexion and rotation of the neck bone. If the measured value deviates from the normal value or is accompanied by pain, it is considered that there is an abnormality and the treatment method is suggested.

This study was conducted to develop an individualized upper extremity exercise program for patients after mastectomy and evaluate its effectiveness. A nonequivalent control-group pretest-posttest design was used for this investigation. Research participants were patients with breast cancer who underwent mastectomy at two university hospitals (experimental group, n=17; control group, n=16). The experimental group received an individualized upper extremity exercise program three times a week for 7 weeks. Data were analyzed by the ${\chi}^2-test$, Fisher's exact test, Mann-Whitney U-test and Wilcoxon Signed Rank test using SPSS WIN 21.0. Inter-group comparison revealed significant differences between pre-test and post-test in hands behind the back, flexion, abduction, external rotation, internal rotation, and grip strength. Moreover, the experimental group showed significant improvements in hands behind the back, flexion, abduction, external rotation, internal rotation, and grip strength relative to the control. In conclusion, the individualized upper extremity exercise program was shown to be an effective intervention to improve physical functions in upper limbs and shoulders. Therefore, this program should be applied to patients after mastectomy in clinics since many patients have suffered from decreased physical functions in upper extremities.

Objective : The purpose of this study was to estimate the reliability of cervical range of motion measurement in healthy adults using smart phone application and goniometer that can be easily applicated in clinical setting. Methods : The cervical range of motion was measured as the flexion, extension, right rotation, left rotation, right lateral flexion, and left lateral flexion. To measure the reliability of intra-rater and inter-rater reliability, the same examiner performed two measurements and the other examiner performed once, total measurement were performed three times. The order of tests was randomized and two examiners didn't know the results of measurements. Results : Thirty healthy adults were participated. The result of this study shows that there were are no significant differences in all movements except the right lateral flexion in comparison of average angle of smart phone application and goniometer. The intra-rater reliability of smart phone application and goniometer showed ICC as .841~.958 and the inter-rater reliability showed ICC as .720~.944 for all movements. Conclusion : These results suggest that smart phone application and goniometer have proven to be reliable in measuring the cervical range of motion. Smart phone application can be used as a useful tool in clinical setting due to fast and accurate measurements of cervical range of motion.

본 연구는 43세 남성 환자의 관절가동술과 슬링을 이용한 유착성 관절낭염 환자의 치료사례를 조사하여 그 과정과 결과를 알아보고자 하였다. 어깨통증장애지수(shoulder pain and disability index) 측정과 어깨관절의 굽힘(flexion), 벌림(abduction), 바깥돌림(external rotation), 안쪽돌림(internal rotation)에 대한 관절가동범위를 측정하여 비교하였으며 견관절 주위에 비스테로이드 소염진통 주사 1회, 약물치료를 병행하며 주 3회 8주간 보존적인 물리치료인 온습포(hot pack)와 간섭파(ICT), 관절가동술, 그리고 슬링을 이용한 운동치료를 실시하였다. 결과는 관절가동술과 슬링운동치료의 적용이 유착성 관절낭염 환자의 통증을 줄이고 관절가동범위를 증진시키는데 효과가 있는 것으로 판단된다.

PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to investigate that the differences in sternocleidomastoid muscle activity, neck rotation angle, neck lateral bending angle and neck lateral bending onset time between conditions with and without visual biofeedback during neck rotation. METHODS: Ten male and four female adults with condition of forward head posture were recruited in this study. Subjects conducted to left and right maximal neck rotation under the conditions with and without visual biofeedback. During neck rotation, kinematic data of neck rotation, neck lateral bending movement, and electromyography activities of bilateral sternocleidomastold muscles were collected. Differences in dependent variables between conditions with and without visual biofeedback were analyzed using paired t-test. RESULTS: There were significant decreases in lateral bending angle, while lateral bending movement onset time was delayed significantly when applying visual biofeedback (p<.05). However, there were no significant differences in the activation of left and right sternocleidomastoid muscles and neck rotation angle between conditions with and without visual biofeedback (p>.05). CONCLUSION: These findings suggest that visual biofeedback may be effective for axial rotation of cervical spine during neck rotation in adults with forward head posture.

The aim of this study was to compare the electromyographic (EMG) activity levels of the scapular upward rotators [upper trapezius (UT), lower trapezius (LT), and serratus anterior (SA)] and other scapular muscles [posterior deltoid (PD), levator scapulae (LS), and infraspinatus (IS)] during isometric lower trapezius exercises. Twenty males with no medical history of shoulder pain or upper extremity disorders were recruited for this study. EMG activity was recorded from the UT, LT, SA, PD, LS, and IS while subjects performed three different exercises: Prone arm lift (PAL), Backward rocking diagonal arm lift (BRDAL), Modified Prone Cobra (MPC). One-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) was used to determine any significant differences among the three exercises. A lower relative activation of UT, LT, and SA was seen with the MPC than with the other exercises (p<.05). The relatively lower activation of the UT identified, the MPC exercise as the preferred choice for preferential strengthening the LT (p<.05). However, a higher activation in the PD, LS, and IS occurred with the MPC than with the other exercises (p>.05). The recruitment pattern of synergist varied depending on the exercise posture. These findings suggest that exercise posture is an important factor in the selection of strengthening exercise for weak muscle.

Explicit and closed-form expressions describing magnetic behaviors of uniaxial magnetic materials are derived. Explicit and closed-form expressions for magnetic torque, magnetization orientation, and thier derivative functions with respect to the intensity and the orientation of an applied field. Those explicit expressions could give elegant mehtods of measuring magnetic anisotropy and saturation magnetization by the least squre fitting. In addition, on could use them to study the distribution function of magnetic propeties of a non-interacting magnetic aggregate.
