본 논문에서는 의료 영상 중에서 성대 운동의 불규칙적인 움직임을 판단하여 자동으로 진단 파라미터를 구하는 비디오스트로보키모그래피(Videostrobokymography) 시스템에서 관심 영역을 추출하는 방법을 소개하고자 한다. CCD카메라에 의해 촬영된 영상은 비디오 테이프에 저장된 후 이미지 캡쳐 보드에서 그레이 이미지(gray-level)로 변환되어 저장된다. 입력된 영상은 움직이는 영상을 촬영한 것이므로 관심 영역의 위치가 각 프레임마다 다르다. 또한 실제로 입력된 성대영상들이 점진적인 농도 변화를 보이기 때문에 에지에 의해 영역을 추출하는 일반적인 영역 추출방법은 사용하기 어렵다. 본 논문에서는 두 번의 단계를 통하여 관심 영역을 추출하고 있다. 첫 번째는 입력된 영상에서 노이즈를 제거한 후 각 프레임에서 영상의 최소 에너지를 구한다. 두 번째로 농도 변화 값을 특징 값으로 이용하는 분할-합병 알고리즘(Split-merge Algorithm)을 적용하여 관심 영역을 추출하였다. 제안한 알고리즘을 19명의 성대 영상에 적용하여 분석한 결과 성대의 관심 영역을 추출할 수 있었다. 그리고, 영상의 에너지 값을 이용하는 스네이크 알고리즘(Snake Algorithm)에 적용하여 비교해본 결과 본 연구에서 제안하는 스네이크 알고리즘보다 좋은 성능을 보임을 확인할 수 있었다. 본 연구에서 제안하는 관심 영역 추출 방법은 동적인 변화를 보이는 영상에서 관심 영역을 추출할 수 있을 뿐 아니라 계산 량이 적어 200x280크기의 이미지를 초당 약 40프레임에 대한 관심 영역을 추출할 수 있는 장점이 있다.

This paper proposes a minimal contour tracking algorithm that reduces transmission of data for tracking mobile objects in surveillance networks in terms of detection and communication load. This algorithm perform detection for object tracking and when it transmit image data to server from camera, it minimized communication load by reducing quantity of transmission data. This algorithm use minimal tracking area based on the kinematics of the object. The modeling of object's kinematics allows for pruning out part of the tracking area that cannot be mechanically visited by the mobile object within scheduled time. In applications to detect an object in real time,when transmitting a large amount of image data it is possible to reduce the transmission load.

Vent mixer can provide main flow directly into a recirculation region downstream of the mixer to enhance fuel-air mixing efficiency. Based on experimental results of three-dimensional velocity, vorticity and turbulent kinetic energy obtained by a stereoscopic PIV method, the performance of the vent mixer was compared with that of the step mixer which was used as a basic model. Thick shear layers of the vent mixer induced the increase of the penetration height. The turbulent kinetic energy mainly distributed along a boundary layer between the main flow and the jet plume. This turbulent field activates mass transfer in a mixing region, leading to the mixing enhancement.

Absorbing boundary conditions are used to mitigate undesired reflections that can arise at the model's truncation boundaries. We apply a complex frequency shifted perfectly matched layer (CFS-PML) to elastic wave modeling in the frequency domain. Modeling results show that the performance of our implementation is superior to other absorbing boundaries. We consider the coefficients of CFS-PML to be optimal when the kinetic energy becomes to the minimum, and propose the modified CFS-PML that has the CFS-PML coefficient ${\alpha}_{max}$ defined as a function of frequency. Results with CFS-PML and modified CFS-PML are significantly improved compared with those of the classical PML technique suffering from large spurious reflections at grazing incidence.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to determine the relationships among health related quality of life and uncertainty in adult patients with congenital heart diseases. Methods: The subjects were 136 adult congenital heart disease patients at the congenital heart center out-patient clinic of the A General Hospital in S city. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA, Pearson's correlation coefficient and multiple regression. Results: There were significant negative correlations of quality of life with general motor function area and uncertainty. Among predictors, gross motor(${\beta}=-.38$) and daily activity (${\beta}=-.21$) had statistically significant influences on uncertainty(F=6.15, p=.018). Conclusion: Nursing interventions to promote gross motor and daily activity might be essential for adult patients with congenital heart disease in order to reduce uncertainty.

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to examine the health promoting lifestyle(HPL) practices and to provide the baseline data for development of church setting-centered health promotion program. Methods: For the study, 315 adults were selected from a church in G city by convenient sampling method. The data were analyzed using frequencies, ANOVA, t-test, Duncan test, and Pearson's correlation coefficient with the SPSS/PC program. Results: The mean score on HPL was 3.3. The item of the lowest score HPL was smoking. In the mean score of knowledge, behavior, and practice on HPL, the highest score of knowledge on HPL was drinking, but the highest score of practice was smoking. On the other hand, the highest score of behavior was: exercise, nutrition, stress respectably. Analysis of HPL according to the demographic characteristics showed there was a statistically significant difference by age. Subcategories of HPL showed positive correlations statistically significant: Exercise with nutrition, stress and drinking. Nutrition with stress and drinking. Drinking with stress and smoking. Conclusions: Based on the above findings, it is suggested to develop church setting-centered health promotion program with areas focused on management of stress, antismoking, sobriety, practice in nutrition and exercises.

최근에 측정할 수 있는 상태만을 피드백하여 시스템의 극점을 의도한 영역에 배치하는 상수들의 영역을 찾아내는 방법이 제시되었고, 비행체의 제어에 적용한 결과가 발표되었다. 이 방법은 근궤적법과 극점배치법의 단점을 상호 보완하며 견실성(Robustness)에 대한 판단을 용이하게 할 뿐 아니라 컴퓨터를 사용하여 쉽게 설계에 이용될 수 있는 장점이 있다. 그러나 S 평면상에 배치되는 각각의 극점쌍의 위치를 제어 상수들의 조합으로 부터 유추해내기 어렵고, 중요하지 않은 극점이 의도하는 영역밖에 있는 경우에는 적용하는데 난점이 있었다. 본 논문에서는 이 방법을 확장하여 S 평면상에 배치되는 복소극점쌍의 위치를 제어상수 평면에서 간단하게 유추할 수 있고, 이득여유 위상여유를 동시에 고려할 수 있는 제어상수 영역 그래프법을 제시하고 노드롭(Northrop) 항공사의 시험용 비행기를 대상으로 하여 종방향운동 제어기의 설계 예를 보인다.

Using Fourier transformation and wavelet analysis, we compared the auditory event-related potentials of the patients with attention deficit-hyperactivity disorders(abbr. ADHD, 13 boys) and normal control children(8 boys). Amplitudes of the event-related potentials which were calculated via Fourier transformation were compared between the groups and between conditions(non-target versus target) in each group. To the non-target stimuli, the patients with ADHD showed significantly greater amplitudes across almost all of the electrode sites and frequencies. To the target stimuli, the incidents which ADHD patients showed much higher amplitudes than normal controls significantly decreased, while those of the reverse results increased significantly. These results were consistent with the comparison results about negative difference wave(abbr. Nd wave) using Fourier transformation. In summary, it was proved that non-target stimulus which should be ignored elicited more robust electrical response from the patients with ADHD than normal children, but the target stimulus which reguired active processing did much less electrical activity in the patients. For the patients, they showed much inhibited electrical response to the target stimuli in some electrodes and frequency ranges. Normal children were more strongly stimulated by the target stimuli in almost all electrodes and frequency ranges than the patients, but less in prefrontal leads and frontal leads. Wavelet analysis results proved that early responses(0-300msec) to the nontarget stimuli of the patients were significantly greater than the normal controls in prefrontal, anterior frontal, some parts of temporal, and occipital lobes and that late response(300-370msec) were significantly lesser than normal children in parietal and central electrodes. Target stimuli elicited significantly higher electrical activity in both group than non-target stimuli did. Prefrontal and frontal lobes showed stronger responses in the patients than normal children irrespective of stimulus condition, but parietal and temporal lobes did higher activities in normal children than the patients only to the target stimuli. In conclusion, the patients with ADHD showed much greater responses to the stimuli which should be ignored, but failed to activated the necessary processes to the target stimuli. Also, we found that the frequency-dimension analysis and wavelet analysis were useful for the signal processing such as event related potentials.

Cohesie sediment movement in estuarine systems is strongly affected by the phenomena of aggregation and flocculation. Aggregation is the process where primary particles are clustered together in tightly-packed formations; flocculation is the process where aggregates and single particles are bonded together to form large particle groups of very low specific density. The size, shape and strength of the flocculants control the rate of deposition and the processes of pollutant exchange between suspended sediments and ambient water. In estuarine waters, suspended sediments above the lutocline form the mobile suspension zone while below the lutocline they form the stationary suspension zone. Suspended particles in the mobile zone are generally in a dispersed state and the controlling forces are the Brownian motion and the turbulent flow fluctuations. In the stationary suspension zone, the driving force is the gravity. This paper discusses the settling and particle flocculation characteristics under quiescient flow conditions. Particles are entering the study domain randomly. Particles in the mobile suspension zone are simulated by using the Smoluchowski's model. Flocs created in the mobil suspension zone are moving into the stationary suspension zone where viscosity and drag effects are important. Utilizing the concepts of the maximum Feret's diameter and the Minkowski's sausage logic, the fractal dimension of the flocs within the stationary suspension is estimated and then compared with results obtained by other studies.
