Recently, the development of practical wearable robot interfaces has resulted in the emergence of wearable robots such as arm prosthetics or lower-limb exoskeletons. In this paper, we propose a novel method of wrist movement intention estimation based on a regression technique using electromyography of human bio-signals. In daily life, changes in user arm position changes cause decreases in performance by modulating EMG signals. Therefore, we propose an estimation method for robust wrist movement intention for arm position changes, combining several movement intention models based on the regression technique trained by different arm positions. In our experimental results, our method estimates wrist movement intention more accurately than previous methods.

바이오메트릭스의 여러 가지 기술 중에서 얼굴인식은 지문인식, 손금인식, 홍채인식 등과는 달리 신체의 일부를 접촉시키지 않고도 원거리에 설치된 카메라를 통해 사람을 확인할 수 있는 장점을 가지고 있다. 그러나 얼굴인식은 조명변화, 표정변화 둥의 다양한 환경변화에 대단히 민감하게 반응하므로 얼굴의 특징 영역에 대한 정확한 추출이 반드시 선행되어야 한다. 얼굴의 주요 특징인 눈, 코, 입, 눈썹은 자세와 표정 그리고 생김새에 따라 다양한 위치, 크기, 형태를 가질 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 변화하는 특징 영역과 특징 점을 정확히 추출하기 위하여 얼굴을 9가지 방향으로 분류하고, 각 분류된 방향에서 특징 영역을 통계적인 형태에 따라 다시 2차로 분류하여, 각각의 형태에 대한 표준 템플릿을 생성하여 검출하는 방법을 제안한다.

In this study, radiation doses of major organs in various postures in lower extremity teleography were measured and compared to investigate the utility of the test methods. Ten adult males who underwent lower extremity teleography at a tube voltage of 73 kVp, tube current of 32 mAs, and SID of 180 cm. Using rando phantom, glass dosimeter was attached to the eye lens, thyroid gland, and genital gland to measure the radiation dose in each area 5 times in each anteroposterior posture and posteroanterior posture. The results were compared and analyzed through Paired T-test. The images from the anteroposterior posture and posteroanterior posture were evaluated through the blind test on a scale of 5. As a result, the posteroanterior method could reduce the dose than the anteroposterior posture method: less dose for the eye lens by 6%, thyroid gland by 6%, and genital gland by 26%. Since there was no significant difference in image evaluation, the posteroanterior posture is considered better than the anteroposterior posture in lower extremity teleography.

Magnetic disturbance is one of the main factors that deteriorate the accuracy of orientation estimation methods based on inertial/magnetic sensor signals. This paper proposes a parallel Kalman filter(KF) that explicitly detects magnetic disturbances and thus can accurately estimate 3D orientation in magnetically disturbed environments. Due to the parallel nature of the proposed KF, even severe magnetic disturbances only affect yaw estimation, while roll and pitch values remain accurate. Consequently, the proposed KF can be effectively used in various applications that involve magnetically inhomogeneous environments, such as robots, ships, and planes.
