In usual statistical data analysis, we describe statistical data by exact values. However, in modem complex and large-scale systems, it is difficult to treat the systems using only exact data. In this paper, we define these data as fuzzy data(ie. Linguistic variable applied to make the member-ship function.) and Propose a new method to get an analysis of fuzzy survey data based on the maximum entropy Principle. Also, we propose a new method of discrimination by measuring distance between a distribution of the stable state and estimated distribution of the present state using the Kullback - Leibler information. Furthermore, we investigate the validity of our method by computer simulations under realistic situations.

차량이 도로를 달리는데 있어서 절대적으로 꼭 필요한 타이어의 기능으로는 자동차의 하중을 지탱하고 자동차의 방향 전환 유지와, 노면 충격을 흡수 완화하며, 엔진의 구동력과 브레이킹 시 제동력을 노면에 전달하는 등의 기능이 있다. 이런 기능을 수행함에 있어 타이어의 상태는 안전과 직결된다고 볼 수 있다. 주행 중 운전자가 아무리 운전을 잘한다고 하더라도 타이어의 불량으로 인한 사고를 방지할 수는 없다. 자동차의 주행 안정성을 위한 타이어의 문제 중 타이어의 편마모는 운전자의 운전습관과 휠 얼라이먼트의 이상 등으로 타이어의 특정 부위가 마모되는 증상을 일컫는데, 현재까지 점검 방법으로는 정비사가 타이어를 눈과 손으로 점검하여 판단하고 있어서 점검하는 기준이 주관적이며, 정확하게 검증할 수 없는 것이 현실이다. 이에 본 논문에서는 현실의 애매모호한 주관적인 검증기준의 단점을 보완하고자 타이어의 실제 이미지를 디지털 영상처리 기법을 사용하여 각 타이어의 마모 정도를 체크하여 편마모를 객관적으로 점검할 수 있는 시스템을 설계하고자 한다.

Purpose: The current study reports the clinical results of total elbow arthroplasties (TEA) which were Performed on patients with poor clinical and radiological results after initial surgeries for elbow fractures or dislocations. Materials and Methods: The clinical outcomes of twelve consecutive patients who underwent TEA after failed surgeries for elbow fractures or dislocations from january, 1995 to December, 2005 were evaluated. The initial diagnoses were distal humeral fractures in 8 cases and fracture-dislocations in 4 cases. The Mean period from the initial operations to the TEAs was 12 months. The mean folloow up period after TEA was 43 months. Results: The mean range of motion, in terms of active extension, activeflexion, supination, and pronation, improved from $14.2^{\circ}$, $96.7^{\circ}$, $50.8^{\circ}$ and $53.3^{\circ}$ to $5.4^{\circ}$, $122.1^{\circ}$, $63.3^{\circ}$ and $67.5^{\circ}$, respectively (p<0.05). RAdiolucent lines were found in 3 cases, which were 1 case of type 3, and 2 cases of type 4. All three loosening cases underwent revision TEAs. The mean postoperative Mayo elvow performance score was 79 point. There were 6 cases of excellent, 2 cases of good, and 4 cases in poor. Conclusion: Good clinical results were obtained after TEA performed in failed surgeries for elbow fractures of dislocations.

Background: This study aimed to identified the relationship between the risk of obstructive sleep apnea, subjective health, and health-related quality of life among the middle-aged and elderly population in Korea. Methods: Adults aged 40 or older were extracted from the total 22,559 respondents to the 2019-2020 Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey VIII, and secondary analysis was conducted on a total of 6,659 middle-aged and elderly people with no missing values. Logistic regression analysis and multiple regression analysis were conducted to examine the relationship between obstructive sleep apnea risk factors and subjective health as well as quality of life. Results: The subjective health status decline in the high-risk group compared to the non-risk group for obstructive sleep apnea was statistically significantly higher, with an odds ratio of 1.84 (p<0.001). The health-related quality of life was also statistically significantly lower by 0.02 points (β, -0.02; p<0.001). As a result of subgroup analysis on specific variables, the association between the risk of obstructive sleep apnea and subjective health and health-related quality of life was statistically significant depending on gender, sleep time, presence of depression, household income, and number of household members. Based on the obstructive sleep apnea risk group, women had a higher correlation with low subjective health and lower health-related quality of life scores than men. Sleeping time of more than 8 hours or less than 6 hours was more associated with low subjective health and lower health-related quality of life score than sleeping time of 6-8 hours. Patients with depression were more likely to have low subjective health than those without depression. The lower the household income level and the smaller the number of household members, the higher the association with low subjective health and the lower the health-related quality of life score. Conclusion: It is essential to recognize that the risk of obstructive sleep apnea not only directly affects sleep disorders but also impacts individuals' subjective health and quality of life. Consequently, social support and education should be provided to raise awareness of this issue. Particularly, programs for preventing and managing obstructive sleep apnea should target vulnerable groups such as women, individuals in single-person households, low household income, and those with depression, aiming to improve their subjective health and quality of life.

본 논문에서는 고해상도 비디오를 위한 프레임 레이트 변환 방법을 제시한다. 서로 다른 방식이나 포맷을 가진 영상 신호를 변환할 때에는 시각적으로 거슬리는 움직임 지터(motion jitter)나 영상의 모서리에서의 블러링(blurring) 현상이 일어날 수 있다. 제시하는 방법에서는 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위해 양방향 움직임 추정/보상을 이용하여 프레임 레이트를 증가 변환한다. 또한 보다 정확한 움직임 벡터를 찾기 위해 다중 프레임을 통한 양방향 탐색 방법을 제안한다. 먼저, 픽셀 값을 알고 있는 현재 프레임과 이전 프레임간의 움직임 벡터를 이용하여 양방향 움직임 벡터를 얻는다. 얻은 움직임 벡터는 벡터 스무딩 블록을 거친다. 그 후 OBMC(Overlapped Block Motion Compensation)를 이용하여 보간 프레임을 구성한다. 실험 결과는 기존 방법들보다 제안 방법이 주관적 화질 면에서 우수함을 나타낸다.

This study attempted to explore what are the benefits that online game consumers seek in their on-line game consumption. Nowadays many on-line game consumers are extremely absorbed in the on-line game. The purpose of this study was to find the benefits that make people enjoy on-line games enthusiastically based on the Q methodology. Q methodology is a way to understand a person's structure of subjectivity. This study applied Q methodology to clarifying consumers' subjective evaluation of the on-line game benefit s. 28 Q questions were prepared through literature review, and were offered to 30 consumers. The subjects were divided into the four types seeking different benefits with on-line games: communication, enjoyment, achievement, and escapism. The results suggested that the benefits of on-line game are beyond the general characteristics of the game including human network or achievement in the on-line game community.

In this paper, an adaptive cosine transform coding scheme which incorporate human visual properties into the coding scheme is investigated. Human vision is relatively sensitive to mid-frequency band, and insensitive to very low and very high frequency band. These property was mathematically modelled with MTF(Modulation Transfer Function) through many psychovisual experiment. DCT transforms energy in spatial domain into frequency domain, so can exploit the MTF very efficiently. Another well-known visual characteristics is spatial masking effect that visibility of noise is less in regions of high activity than in regions of low activity. Proposed coding scheme imploys quantization matrix which represent the properties of these spatial frequency response of human vision, and adaptively quality of an image. To compute the activity index of an image block, simple operation is performed in spatial domain, and according to activity index. block of low activity region is more exactly quantized relatively than that of high activity region. Results showed that, at low bit rate, the subjective quality of the reconstructed images by proposed coding scheme is acceptible than that of coding scheme without HVS properties.

All artists set the arrangement of relative probability subjectively by giving the contrast of color and chroma to give higher probability of some colors in their works and then perform the mechanical assignment. Also the analysis of plastic structure in all areas of design has been made by subjective and qualitative method based on the emotion, intuition and experience of interpreter of design structures and that of color structures was done by the same method. Therefore this study compares and suggests the style characteristics of modern and postmodern design with the object quantitative analysis of color structure by selecting and applying Ilya Chashinik's ceramic dishes as the analysis product of modern design and Jim Melchert's ceramic wall painting as that of postmodern design of 'analysis model of color structure' researched and developed for the quantitative information analysis based on information and communication theory and it is also meaningful in introducing and presenting the analytic procedure and methods centering around quantitative analysis model of color structure analysis.
