무선영상취득시스템(WIA 시스템, Wireless Image Acquisition System)은 라즈베리 파이에 전용 카메라와 WiFi 모듈을 장착하여, 하천의 영상을 실시간으로 촬영하여 무선으로 서버로 전송하는 시스템이다. 이 시스템이 갖는 가장 큰 이점은 시스템을 구성하는 비용이 매우 저렴하다는 점이다. 라즈베리 본체와 카메라 모듈, WiFi 모듈 모두 매우 저렴하고, 또 사용하는 전력이 작아서 상용 전원이 아닌 태양광 발전이나 배터리 등을 이용할 수 있다. 따라서 비용과 장소에 구애받지 않고 손쉽게 어디든지 설치하여 하천의 상시 감시나 계측에 활용할 수 있다. 또한, 상용 전원을 이용하지 않아도 되기 때문에, 산간벽지나 오지 등의 소하천 관리에도 적합하다. 본 연구에서는 이 WIA 시스템을 경상남도 김해시의 대청천에 적용하여 홍수 시 하천의 수표면을 촬영하고, 촬영된 동영상을 분석하여 수위와 유속을 동시에 계측하여 유량을 산정하였다. 라즈베리 파이에 $640{\times}480$ 화소의 카메라를 장착하여 10분 간격으로 10초간의 동영상을 촬영하고, 이를 WiFi 모듈을 이용하여 무선으로 서버로 전송한다. 전송된 동영상을 분석하기 전에 설치 지점의 3차원 좌표 변환 자료와 횡단면 좌표를 입력하여 대상 지점의 측정 매개변수를 설정한다. 즉, 이들 자료에서 영상 내의 표정점과 측정선을 설정해 둔다. 그 다음, 전송된 동영상을 시공간 영상으로 만들어 수위를 분석한다. 비슷한 방법으로 동영상에서 유속을 분석하고, 분석된 수위와 유속, 그리고 미리 설정된 횡단면 좌표를 이용하여 유량을 산정해 낸다. 설치된 WIA 시스템을 실제로 운용하여, 2017년 9월 11일의 06:10~19:00의 호우 사상 전체를 분석하였다. 10분 간격으로 촬영된 10초간 동영상 중에서 적절한 분석이 가능한 영상 77개에서 수위와 유속을 분석한 결과, 최대 수위는 0.746 m(간이수위표 기준), 최대 유속은 0.962 m/s, 최대 유량은 $12.977m^3/s$에 이르렀다. 지점 특성상 다른 유속계를 이용한 검증은 사실상 불가능하였다. 또, 하폭이 넓어서 일출 전과 일몰 후의 촬영 자료는 분석이 어려운 점이 있다. 이러한 기술적 문제들을 보완하면, WIA 시스템을 이용한 소하천의 수위와 유속 측정 시스템은 경제성이고 효율이 높은 관측시스템으로 유망할 것으로 기대된다.

The OpenCV-based length measurement algorithm is anticipated to be effective for length measurement inspection tasks, providing objective inspection outcomes. Nonetheless, there is a notable gap in research regarding the influence of various checkerboard types and capturing conditions on the algorithm's accuracy in real-world construction settings. Consequently, this study proposes a methodology employing an OpenCV-based length measurement algorithm and checkerboard for digital construction inspection tasks. The findings suggest that using a checkerboard with square sizes of A4 or larger, and 50mm or larger, is optimal for capturing distances and angles within 4m and 90°, respectively, when deploying the algorithm. These insights are anticipated to provide practical guidelines for professionals conducting digital-based length measurement inspections.

Mammography, the basic test for finding and treating increased breast cancer, gives the anxiety of cancer and radiation exposure to most women. In addition, it gave very severe compression pain, so we studied the degree of pain and tried to reduce the pain. The purpose of this study is to compare and analyze the modified imaging technique and the basic imaging technique based on clinical experience, respectively. The subjects of this study were 160 women from 30 to 60 years old who visited to Seoul Boramae Hospital operated by Seoul National University Hospital from February to March 2017 for breast screening. Modified 80 persons and 80 persons were divided into two groups, and each group was asked to fill out questionnaires sequentially without knowing the subjects. The first method is a modified method in which an automatic pedal is divided into four or more presses, a manual pressure is used together, and an attitude is described in detail. Secondly, we used only the automatic pedal compression method and press it within 1-3 times. In the mean of the pain distribution, the experimental group (modified method) was 2.49 and the control group (basic method) had an average of 4.86, which showed 48.8% less pain. In this modified method, the pain scores of the experimental group were lower than those of the control group, and the degree of the pain was statistically significant.

The object of this study is to develop the examination technique for measuring the O-ring deformation behavior under the pressure and the squeezed condition simultaneously. The O-ring deformation measuring device in which two grooves were dug to insert the two O-rings was manufactured to be not deformed under the high pressure and the 1 mm and 0.1 mm gap were designed to measure the extrusion lengths under the internal pressure. The beam hardening correction, the histogram analysis and the dead zone correction were executed to exactly measure the shape of O-ring deformation and the lengths of the O-ring deformation were measured by the LSF and the ERF. The computed tomography applied the pressure of 0, 1.378, 4.902, 9.804, 15.692 MPa at 22.3% squeezed condition and the expanded diameter, contact length and extrusion depth were measured in each pressure. The shape of O-ring deformation was evaluated by the FEM to verify the results of measuring by the computed tomography and the area of O-ring was mutually compared to the area measured by the computed tomography.

It is possible to do not use the Image Plate for a long time in the clinic. for the acquisition of reliable images the decommissioning process is very important. In this study, we would like to look at complex noises that may occur during Image Plate use depending on the frequency and time of day. first, we got the image from computer radiography. second, We calculate the noise changes using Peak Signal to Noise Ratio(PSNR) and Noise Power Spectrum(NPS). finally, we suggest that remove the noise from the IP for more than 4 hours. and It turned out to be better to remove the noise more than once. this study will be a quantitative reference for Image Plate management and use in the clinical trial.

Slow sync is a photography technique where a user takes an image with long exposure and a camera flash to enlighten the foreground and background. Unlike short exposure with flash and long exposure without flash, slow sync guarantees the bright foreground and background in the dim environment. However, taking a slow sync image with a smartphone is difficult because the smartphone camera has continuous and weak flash and can not turn on flash if the exposure time is long. This paper proposes a deep learning method that input is a short exposure flash image and output is a slow sync image. We present a deep learning network with a weight map for spatially varying enlightenment. We also propose a dataset that consists of smartphone short exposure flash images and slow sync images for supervised learning. We utilize the linearity of a RAW image to synthesize a slow sync image from short exposure flash and long exposure no-flash images. Experimental results show that our method trained with our dataset synthesizes slow sync images effectively.

Skull A-P projections are the bi-product where the ESD (Entrance Surface Dose) for digital radiography is much higher than that conventional screen-film radiography. Therefore, the aim of this study was to reduce radiation doses to patients by using an added filter. This research focuses on the identification of the reduction of exposure to radiation based on the thickness of an added filter when applying the 'Skull A-P Projection' by using the 'Skull Phantom'. Also, an experiment was conducted to evaluate the qualitative decline of images through filtration. The measurement of one's exposed dose to radiation was executed by locating the 'Skull Phantom' on the position of the 'Skull AP,' while changing 16 kinds of added filters from 0.1 mmAl to 0.5 mmCu + 2.0 mmAl in terms of incident and penetrating doses. For the qualitative evaluation of images, a total number of 17 images have been acquired in the 'Skull Phantom' under the same conditions as those for the measurement of one's exposed dose. The acquired images have been evaluated by a radiological specialist. As a result, the images with a diagnostic value have been obtained by using such added filters as the compound filter of 0.2 mmCu +1.0 mmAl. The exposed dose absorbed on the 'Skull Phantom' is about 0.6 mGy. The value is only 12% of 5 mGy, the ESD value acquired on the 'Skull P-A Projection', which is recommended by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA). As a result, depending on the parts of inspection, it is possible to reduce the patient's exposed dosage of radiation considerably by using an appropriate added filter.

SAII (synthetic aperture integral imaging) is a useful technique to record many multi view images of 3D objects by using a moving camera and to reconstruct 3D depth images from the recorded multiviews. This is largely composed of two processes. A pickup process provides elemental images of 3D objects and a reconstruction process generates 3D depth images computationally. In this paper, a signal model for SAII is presented. We defined the granular noise and analyzed its characteristics. Our signal model revealed that we could reduce the noise in the reconstructed images and increase the computational speed by reducing the shifting distance of a single camera.

In EIT, various image reconstruction algorithms have been used in order to compute the internal resistivity distribution of the unknown object with its electric potential data at the boundary. Mathematically the EIT image reconstruction algorithm is a nonlinear ill-posed inverse problem. In this paper, a SPSA approach is proposed for the solution of the EIT image reconstruction. Results of numerical experiments of EIT solved by the SPSA approach are presented and compared to that obtained by the modified Newton-Raphson(mNR) method.

The computed tomography(CT) simulation tool provides virtual experimental environment without using a high cost medical equipment. We made teaching materials for the CT simulation tools and educated the students and entry level of radio-technologists. We divided the experimental objects into two groups; students who took only theoretical classes (group 1) and students who took both theoretical and simulation classes (group 2). The results showed that the group 2 outperformed group 1 significantly, which indicates that the simulation program provides a good educational material for not only students but also radio-technologists.
