The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of gargling solution with 0.05% NaF and 10% Xylitol in orthodontic patients with fixed appliance. The sample consisted of 20 patients who were classified into an experimental group and a control group, 10 patients each. Experimental group was used experimental gargling solution and the control group was used with placebo solution. The change of S. mutans was analysed by culture on MSB and BHI agar plate pre and post 3, 6, 9 weeks. The results were as follows. 1 There were significant reduction in the number of S. mutans C.F.U. between pre and post 3 weeks(p<0.01), 9 weeks(p<0.05) in experimental group 2. There were significant reduction in the ratio of S. mutans C.F.U. to total C.F.U. between pre and post 3, 6, 9 weeks(p<0.01) in experimental group. 3. S. mutans, which were reduced until 3 weeks, did not show significant change after 3, 6, 9 weeks. 4. S. mutans were strongly suppressed until 3 weeks after gargling solution with 0.05% NaF and 10% Xylitol.

본 논문에서는 통계적 방법을 이용한 후처리기를 설계하고, 구현하여 평가하였다. 통계적인 방법은 처리 속도보다는 공간 효율을 높임으로써 후처리의 성능을 높일 수 있다는 가정에서, 후처리의 성능을 향상시키기 위해서 다음의 3가지 방법을 제안한다. 첫째, 전이 확률에서 중복 표현되는 정보를 정의하고, 제거할 수 있는 방법을 제안한다. 둘째, 정수인 순위값으로부터 실수인 전이 확률의 근사값을 추정해 냄으로써 공간 효율을 높일 수 있는 방법을 제안한다. 셋째, 위의 두가지 방법을 복합적으로 적용하여 공간 효율을 높은 오류 탐지와 오류 교정 방법을 제안한다.

한국어 띄어쓰기에서 통계적 모델을 사용한 기존의 연구들은 최대우도추정(Maximum Likelihood Estimation)에 기반하고 있다. 그러나 최대우도추정은 자료부족 시 부정확한 결과를 주는 단점이 있다. 본 연구는 이에 대한 대안으로 사용자 입력을 고려하는 베이지언 파라미터 추정(Bayesian parameter estimation)을 제안한다. 기존 연구가 사용자 입력을 교정 대상으로만 간주한 것에 비해, 제안 방법은 사용자 입력을 교정 대상이면서 동시에 학습의 대상으로 해석한다. 제안하는 방법에서 사용자 입력은 학습 말뭉치의 자료부족에서 유발되는 부정확한 파라미터 추정(parameter estimation)을 방지하는 역할을 수행하고, 학습 말뭉치는 사용자 입력의 불확실성을 보완하는 역할을 수행한다. 실험을 통해 문어체 말뭉치, 통신환경 구어체 말뭉치, 웹 게시판 등 다양한 종류의 말뭉치와 다양한 통계적 모델에 대해 제안 방법이 효과적임을 알 수 있다.

Mathematical models are actively used to reduce the experimental expenses required to understand physical phenomena. However, they are different from real phenomena because of assumptions or uncertain parameters. In this study, we present a calibration and validation method using a paper helicopter and statistical methods to quantify the uncertainty. The data from the experiment using three nominally identical paper helicopters consist of different groups, and are used to calibrate the drag coefficient, which is an unknown input parameter in both analytical models. We predict the predicted fall time data using probability distributions. We validate the analysis models by comparing the predicted distribution and the experimental data distribution. Moreover, we quantify the uncertainty using the Markov Chain Monte Carlo method. In addition, we compare the manufacturing error and experimental error obtained from the fall-time data using Analysis of Variance. As a result, all of the paper helicopters are treated as one identical model.

Time-consuming experiments have been required in the development of neutron moisture gauge to induce a relation between the water content in soil and the neutron counts. Applying a monte carlo computer code to simulate the experiments of neutron moisture gauging may contribute to reduce time and efforts for experiments and produce a calibration equation which is more applicable to soil in general. In this study MCNP4A, a monte carlo computer code, was employed to simulate soil experiments and the simulated results were compared with experimental ones. The comparative study showed that MCNP4A is applicable to simulate the experiments and calibration equation can be obtained through simulations. Effects of dry density changes were also studied.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of an electric toothbrush, with a specially designed orthodontic brush head, compared to a manual toothbrush on the periodontal health of patients with fixed orthodontic appliances Forty patients were randomly divided into two groups. the electric and the manual toothbrush groups, 1 month after attachment of fixed orthodontic appliances. Periodontal status was measured using a plaque index, a gingival index. a bleeding index, a pocket depth and a relative attachment loss, at baseline and after 3 months. 6 months, 9 mouths. and 12 mouths. The Braun Oral-B Plak Control with Ortho OD 15-1 brush head was used as the electric toothbrush while the Butler G.U.M 124 was given as the manual toothbrush. In the manual toothbrush group, the giugival and bleeding indices showed no statistically significant differences, but the plaque index was significantly decreased (P<0.001) and pocket depth as well as relative attachment loss were significantly increased (p<0.01). In the electric toothbrush group. the bleeding index, pocket depth and relative attachment loss showed no statistically significant differences. but the plaque and gingival indices were significantly decreased (p<0.001). In the case of the plaque. giugival and bleeding indices, there were no statistically significant differences between the electric and the manual toothbrush groups. On the contrary, in the case of pocket depth and relative attachment loss, there were statistically significant differences between the electric and the manual toothbrush groups: an increase in the manual toothbrush groups unlike the electric toothbrush group which kept the same state (P<0.05) These findings suggest that an electric toothbrush is useful for orthodontic patients with fixed appliances.

TMDE(Test Measurement and Diagnostic Equipment) which is using in the military weapon system should perform the periodic calibration to maintain a measurement reliability during the life cycle, organizations are faced with increasing pressures to minimize costs while improving the reliability of test equipment. Previous studies suggest that reliability models are determined by considering simple size and characteristics of equipment, however an applying single Model may not be fit well maintenance data of many kinds of TMDEs. This paper presents that recommending an optimal calibration interval through the goodness of fit test with verifying statistical significance level among the several intervals which are computed with using major reliability models. According to the result of applying the actual proposed of calibration interval analysis method for various types of equipment, reliabilities are maintained for the end of calibration intervals.

Stomatognathic system is a complex one that is composed of TMJ, neuromuscular system, teeth and connective tissue, and all its components are doing their parts to maintain their physiological relationships. Mandible, in particular, performs various functions such as mastication, speech, and deglutition, the muscular activities that determine such functions are signalled by numerous types of proprioceptors that exist in periodontal membrane, TMJ, and muscles to be controlled by complicated pathways and mechanics of peripheral and central nervous system. Orthodontic treatment, especially when accompanied by orthognathic surgery, brings dramatic changes of stornatognat is system such as intraoral proprioceptors and muscle activities and thus, changes in patterns of mandibular function result The author tried to analyze changes in patterns of mandibular movement and physiologic activities of surrounding muscles in Skeletal Class III ortlrognathic surgery patients who presently show a great increase in numbers. The purpose of this study was to draw some objective guidelines in evaluating funclierual aspects of orthognathic surgery patients. Mandibular functional analysis using Biopak was performed for skeletal Class III prognathic patients who underwent IVRO(lntraoral Vertical Ramus Osteotmy), and the following results were obtained: 1. Resting EMG was greater in pre-surgical group than the control group, and it showed gradual decrease after the surgery. Clenching EMG of masseter and anterior temporalis of pre-surgical group was smaller than those of control group, they also increased post-surgically, and significant difference was found between pre-surgical and post-surgical(6 months) groups. 2. Resting EMG of anterior ternporalis was greater than that of all the other muscles, but there was no significant difference. Clenching EMG of anterior temporalis and masseter were greater than those of the other muscles with statistical difference. In swallowing, digastric muscle showed the highest EMG with statistical significance. 3. Limited range of mandibular movement was shown in pre-surgical group. Significant increase in maximum mouth opening was observed six months post-surgically, and significant increase in protrusive movement was observed three months post-surgically.

본 논문에서는 컴퓨터로 정밀 계측기기들을 자동 제어하고 데이터를 측정하기 위하여 기존의 상용 프로그램을 사용하지 않고 Excel VBA(Visual Basic for Applications)를 이용하는 방법에 대하여 연구하였다. 이는 반복측정 및 통계적 수치계산 등에서 많은 장점을 지니고 있어 수많은 국가교정기관 및 일반 산업체에서 유용하게 사용될 수 있으리라 사료된다.
