This study was performed to determine the effects on psychological and physiological variables of Horticulture Activity Caring Program for major company white-collar workers. Fifty three White-collar Workers participated in study. They were assigned to two groups (experimental group and control group) in random order. Random order is used Excel 2010 program RAND function of Microsoft. During the eight-week trial, the experimental group was treated with Horticulture Activity Caring Program weekly for 90 minute per session. The control group wasn't treated. Measurements of variables (stress, depression, blood glucose, total cholesterol, HDL-C, and LDL-C) were performed at weeks 0 and 8 for all participant. Changes in variables were calculated from baseline to trial completion. The data were collected from July to September 2014. SPSS 21.0 was used for the statistical analysis. : Horticulture Activity Caring Program had positive effects on depression (z=-4.57, p< .000). Conclusion of the study suggest the Horticulture Activity Caring Program may have positive effects on improving depression. We expect that the Horticulture Activity Caring Program will become a complementary and alternative therapy of mental health promotion for the white collar workers.

Recently the mobile DBMS (Database Management System) is popular to store and manage large data in a mobile device. Especially, the research and development about mobile storage structure and querying method for navigation map data in a mobile device have been performed. The performance of the mobile DBMS in which random data accesses are most queries if the NAND flash memory is used as storage media of the DBMS is degraded. The reason is that the performance of flash memory is good in writing sequentially but bad in writing randomly as the features of the NAND flash memory. So, new storage structure and querying policies of the mobile DBMS are needed in the mobile DBMS in which a flash memory is used as storage media. In this paper, we have studied the policy of the database page management to enhance the performance of the frequent random update and applied this policy to the navigation-specialized mobile DBMS which supports incremental map update. And also we have evaluated the performance of this policy by experiments.

The data acquired from seismic exploration can be used to detect the existence of oil and gas resources through appropriate processing and interpretation. The seismic attributes indicating the existence of resources are extracted from amplitude information, where the Q-factor representing intrinsic attenuation plays an useful role of hydrocarbon indicator. So, the accuracy of Q-factor estimation is very important to investigate the existence of resources. In this study, we calculated the Q-factor and analyzed the error rate through a numerical example. To mimic real data, random noise was added to the synthetic data. With the noise-added data, the Q-factor was estimated and the error rate was analyzed by using the spectral ratio method (SRM) and peak frequency shift method (PFSM). Both methods provided a relatively accurate Q-factor when the signal-to-noise ratio was 90 dB. However, the peak frequency shift method (PFSM) produced better results than the spectral ratio method (SRM) as the level of random noise increased.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of cushion insole on lumbar flexibility and motor fitness in patients with lumbar spinal stenosis. 26 patients with lumbar spinal stenosis were randomly assigned to the experimental group 13 and the control group 13. Volunteers were allowed to wear cushioned insoles for two hours a day for six weeks. The experimental group was 8 mm and the control group was 4 mm, wearing a cushion insole as a blinded experiment. There was a significant increase(p<0.05) in the flexion test of the experimental group ($3.38{\pm}3.12$), but not statistically significant in the other tests(p>0.05). In conclusion, cushion insole was not suitable for intervention for lumbar spinal stenosis. There is a need to study the height and material of the insoles in the future.

Purpose: This study investigated the effects of an eye care protocol (ECP) on patients in the intensive care unit (ICU). Methods: This study utilized a randomized controlled design. Participants were patients who met the inclusion criteria and were admitted to the ICU (36 in the experimental group and 38 in the control group). The experimental group received an ECP, while the control group received standard eye care, starting the day after admission, for a duration of 10 days. The ECP classifies the degree of eyelid obstruction into three stages based on the degree of exposure to the lower eyelid conjunctiva and cornea. The protocol included cleansing with normal saline gauze, administering eye drops, applying silicone and polyurethane films, and recommending consultation with an ophthalmologist if necessary. The effectiveness of ECP was assessed by analyzing tear volume, hyperemia, chemosis, and eye discharge. Data analysis was conducted using SPSS 27.0, employing the Mann-Whitney U-test and generalized estimating equations. Results: On day 5, the experimental group demonstrated a significant increase in tear volume in both eyes compared with the control group. However, no statistically significant differences were observed in the incidence of hyperemia, chemosis, and eye discharge on days 5 and 10 of the intervention. Conclusion: The application of the ECP in this study increased tear volume in ICU patients, thereby reducing discomfort caused by dry eyes. It has the potential to prevent complications such as damage to the surface of the eyeball resulting from decreased tear volume.

골연골 병변에 관한 논문들을 살펴본 결과, 연구 방법, 각기 다른 치료 방법에 의해 얻어진 결과가 상당한 가변성을 보였다. 현 시점에서 골연골편 제거술 및 병변의 변연 절제와 천공술 그리고 자가 골연골 이식술 등이 가장 널리 이용되고 있으며 효과적인 치료 방법으로 사료된다. 그러나 가장 적절한 치료 수단이 무엇인지에 대한 명확한 결론을 유추하기 위해서는 무작위 임상 실험과 동일한 연구 방법에 의한 결과 측정의 비교가 우선되어져야 할 것으로 사료된다.

문서 교정기에서 문맥의존 철자오류를 교정하는 방법은 크게 규칙을 이용한 방법과 통계 정보를 이용한 방법으로 나뉜다. 한국어와 달리 영어는 오래전부터 통계 모형에 기반을 둔 문맥의존 철자오류 교정 연구가 활발히 이루어졌다. 그러나 대부분 연구가 문맥의존 철자오류 교정 문제를 특정 어휘 쌍을 이용한 분류 문제로 간주하기 때문에 실제 응용에는 한계가 있다. 또한, 대규모 말뭉치에서 추출한 통계 정보를 이용하지만, 통계 정보 자체에 오류가 있을 경우를 고려하지 않았다. 본 논문에서는 텍스트에 포함된 모든 단어에 대하여 문맥의존 철자오류 여부를 판단하고, 해당 단어가 오류일 경우 대치어를 제시하는 영어 문맥의존 철자오류 교정 기법을 제안한다. 또한, 통계 정보의 오류가 문맥의존 철자오류 교정에 미치는 영향과 오류 발생률의 변화가 철자오류 검색과 교정의 정확도와 재현율에 미치는 영향을 분석한다. 구글 웹데이터에서 추출한 통계 정보를 바탕으로 통계 모형을 구성하고 평가를 위해 브라운 말뭉치에서 무작위로 2,000문장을 추출하여 무작위로 문맥의존 철자오류를 생성하였다. 실험결과, 문맥의존 철자오류 검색의 정확도와 재현율은 각각 98.72%, 95.79%였으며, 문맥의존 철자오류 교정의 정확도와 재현률은 각각 71.94%, 69.81%였다.

With the rapid advance in AI (artificial intelligence) and high-performance computing technologies, deep learning is being used in various fields. Deep learning proceeds training by randomly reading a large amount of data and repeats this process. A large number of files are randomly repeatedly referenced during deep learning, which shows different access characteristics from traditional workloads with temporal locality. In order to cope with the difficulty in caching caused by deep learning, we propose a new sampling method that aims at reducing the randomness of dataset reading and adaptively operating on existing buffer cache algorithms. We show that the proposed policy reduces the miss rate of the buffer cache by 16% on average and up to 33% compared to the existing method, and improves the execution time by up to 24%.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of Healing Beat on autonomic balance, heart rate, and anxiety in healthy adults exposed to stressors. Data were collected from 64 healthy volunteers who volunteered after responded to a recruitment announcement at D City University and analyzed using descriptive statistics, the X2-test, the t-test, and repeated measures of ANOVA. Results showed that both experimental and control general characteristics and variables were homogeneous. Significant intergroup differences were obtained for autonomic balance (F = 6.151, p <.001), heart rate (F = 5.455, p <.001), and anxiety (t = -7.633, p <.001). These results indicate Healing Beat is effective at relieving anxiety in stressful situations, and that Healing Beat can be used to relieve stress in many clinical situations or daily life when individuals are exposed to various stressors.
