This paper presents two numerical algorithms for registration of cross-sectional medical images such as CT (Computerized Tomography) or MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) by using geometrical information from helix or line fiducials. The registration algorithms are designed to be used for a surgical robot working inside cavities of human body. A cylindrical device with a combination of line and helix fiducials were also devised and is supposed to be attached to the end-effector of surgical robot. The algorithms and the fiducial pattern were tested in various computer-simulated situations, and the results indicate excellent overall registration accuracy.

뇌종양은 인체에 발생하는 여러 종양 중 세 번째로 많이 나타난다. 뇌종양 환자 수는 지속해서 증가하고 있으며, 별도의 예방법이 존재하지 않아 빠른 진단 및 종양 종류에 따른 치료가 매우 중요하다. 현재 뇌종양 진료는 전문의가 전용 소프트웨어로 뇌 Magnetic Resonance Imaging(MRI) 이미지를 확대, 축소하여 자세히 살펴보면서 종양의 크기, 위치, 양성/악성 여부 등을 판단한다. 이 방식은 의사의 숙련도에 따라 진료 시간과 판독의 차이가 크고 오진 가능성이 있다. 본 논문은 뇌종양 종류별 MRI 이미지가 학습된 CNN 모델을 사용한 의사의 뇌종양 진단 시간 단축, 진단 정확도 향상을 통해 환자 치료의 효율성을 높이는 방안으로 Brain Tumor X를 제안한다.

도플러 효과를 이용해 피부의 혈류 속도 분포를 측정하였다. 고속 CMOS 이미지 센서를 사용하여 $256{\times}256$ 픽셀의 크기를 갖는 혈류 속도 영상을 측정하였다. 많은 의학 치료 분야에서 혈류 흐름에 대한 영상, 특히 모세혈관에서의 혈류 흐름에 대한 영상을 필요로 한다. 레이저 도플러 기술은 물체의 속도를 물체에 접촉하지 않고 측정할 수 있는 대표적인 기술로, 레이저 광의 코헤런트한 특성과 비접촉성 특성은 인체 피부의 혈류 속도를 측정하는데 좋은 특성을 제공한다.

본 논문에서는 IK 리깅을 이용한 캐릭터 콘텐츠 영상 제작을 제안한다. IK 콘텐츠를 2D와 3D로 제작할 수 있는데 본 연구에서는 2D로 캐릭터의 이미지를 레이어로 제작하고, IK의 bone은 스크립트로 생성하였다. 따라서 인체의 각 관절에 해당하는 부위에 리깅을 부여하여 자유로운 캐릭터를 제작하였고, 이러한 캐릭터의 제작은 모션 캡처 제작비용에 비해서 상당히 비용부담이 적은 경제성을 나타내고, 다양한 영역에서 활용 할 수 있다고 사료한다.

90년대 TV 화장품 광고 중 아직도 많은 사람의 기억에 남아 있는 것은 이영애의 '산소 같은 여자'일 것이다. 이 광고는 이영애의 활기차고 탄력 있는 피부를 산소와 연결 지어 큰 성공을 거두었다. 또한, 신선한 공기를 공급한다는 점이 산소가 풍부한 공기를 공급한다는 의미일 정도로 산소는 좋은 이미지를 갖고 있다. 하지만 최근에는 웰빙과 노화에 관한 관심이 증가하면서 활성산소는 인체에서 제거해야 할 대상 1호로 꼽히며, 항산화제나 항산화 식품에 대한 인기가 그 어느 때보다 높다. 그러나 산소와 활성산소에 대해 흔히 알려진 이러한 사실과 달리 그 속에는 또 다른 반전이 숨어 있다.

In this paper we propose a new robust method to extract accurate human silhouettes indoors with active stereo camera. A prime application is for gesture recognition of mobile robots. The segmentation of distant moving objects includes many problems such as low resolution, shadows, poor stereo matching information and instabilities of the object and background color distributions. There are many object segmentation methods based on color or stereo information but they alone are prone to failure. Here efficient color, stereo and image segmentation methods are fused to infer object and background areas of high confidence. Then the inferred areas are incorporated in graph cut to make human silhouette extraction robust and accurate. Some experimental results are presented with image sequences taken using pan-tilt stereo camera. Our proposed algorithms are evaluated with respect to ground truth data and proved to outperform some methods based on either color/stereo or color/contrast alone.

Capsule Endoscope(CE) is a capsule-shaped electronic device which can examine the lesions in digestive tract of human body. Recently the medical procedure using capsule endoscope is receiving great attention to both doctors and patients, since the conventional push-typed endoscope using cables brings great pain and fear to the patients. The technique was firstly available in 2000 and is based on a convergence techniques among BT(Bio Technology), IT(Information Technology), and NT(Nano Technology). The device consists of an optical parts including LEDs(Light Emitting Diodes), an image sensor, a communication module and a power module. Capsule endoscope is the embodiment of the state-of-the art technology and requires key technologies in the various engineering fields. Therefore, in this paper, we introduce the composition of the capsule endoscope system, and compare the communication method between RF(Radio Frequency) communication and HBC(Human Body Communication), which are typically used for data transmission in the capsule endoscope. Furthermore, we analyze the specification of commercialized capsule endoscopes and present the future developments and technical challenges.

The purpose of this study is to understand the general process from textile design till fashion design and to understand the relation between the body structure by using the x-ray technique. The research method was to see background of the anatomic feature and human skeletal X-ray projection through historical aspect of publications, the Internet, and paper. In terms of production, in order to present a design that takes into account the unique silhouette of the human body without distorting the shape of the human skeleton, X-ray images that were reconstituted using a computer graphic tool (Photoshop CS) were reproduced into the fabric as intense images through the digital Textile Printing technique that is capable of expressing fine and delicate details, and applied into the design. An original design was developed that emphasized the impression of the human body being projected and the shape of the human skeleton realistically expressed in terms of silhouette and detail. The results are as follows: First, Body has a anatomic formative characteristic and its formativeness becomes as a great motive for the artistic expression and thereby it becomes more unique and available for new design expression. Second, Using the 'body frame' as the motive of the research, there's mainly tried to make an unique expression. Third, according to reconstructing human skeletal X-ray projection by using Adobe Photoshop CS2, it can be expressed strong and unique design. Forth, DTP which is being used as an essential technique, expresses the body frame realistically and being used the special type of functional product and silk. Likewise by discovering the diverse formativeness of our body frame and reflecting the sense of humanity into the pieces there's been able to make and develop an unique fashion design. I sincerely hope there is a hug progress in this research in this area.

This research seeks to analyze western men's costume in the Baroque era in relation to men's physical beauty from its most detailed and interesting perspective to fomulate a plausible reasoning related to the aesthetic sense of body as expressed in men's costume. This research used national and international books, theses and internet data upon which to base a literature review for a correct understanding of Baroque style and at the same time empirical research to analyze the body image expressed in men's costume. The Baroque style expressed in the 17th century costume offered a dynamic feeling through wavy curves, and its brilliant and colorful decorations created a passionate and charming mood resembling a flame. Accordingly, this research studied the body image as it appeared in the form of 17th century western men's costume by dividing it into the contact beauty of the human body and the manner of hiding the architectural beauty of the human body. First, the exposed silhouette by clothing coming into contact with the human body could be found mainly in upper-class men's costume in the first half of the 17th century. The shorter and tighter doublets and knee breeches could be analyzed in terms of erotic imagery that emphasized masculinity, aristocratic imagery that stressed a distinctive status, and geometric imagery that expressed a triangular pattern. Second, the constructive expression by hiding the human body could be found in upper-class men's costume starting in the mid-17 century. The wearing of the justaucorps could be studied in terms of how it came into contact with the beauty of the human body but also how this clothing style the hid the architectural beauty of human body.

This study is about building an exercise training system that analyzes images taken of a person's whole body and displays the normal operating range for user-specific movements as images. This study analyzes the front and side of the user's body based on the standing point, sets the node in the joint position of the human body, and places the node in the spatial coordinate system from the point of entry, and calibrates the normal node operating range according to the set standard node coordinate. Therefore, the method of the study presented a method to select differentiation from this study through prior technical research and literature research, and the purpose of the study is to establish a exercise training system accordingly.
