Purpose: Intussusception is the most common cause of intestinal obstruction in young children. Although intussusceptions are easily treated, some intussusceptions with or without a pathologic lead point (PLP) often recur. In this study, we analyzed the clinical characteristics and prognosis of recurrent intussusceptions (RI), the frequency of the PLP, and correlation between RI with PLP. Methods: The medical records of 144 patients, among 590 patients with intussusceptions who had been admitted to the Department of Pediatrics and Pediatric Surgery of Dankook University Hospital between May 1994 and June 2009 were reviewed retrospectively. Results: The overall recurrence rate of intussusceptions in this study was 9.2%. The mean interval between the initial occurrence and the first recurrent attack was 130${\pm}$175 days (range, 12 hours to 3 years). There was no statistically significant difference in the recurrence rate among patients who underwent air, barium, and manual reduction (p=0.131). Eighty-seven cases (92.6%) of RI had a successful reduction by the use of non-operative techniques. A PLP was present in 18 patients (3.0%). The most common PLP was intestinal lymphoid hyperplasia, followed by Meckel's diverticulum, duplication cyst, intestinal polyp, and adenomyoma. The mean number of intussusceptions was 4.7${\pm}$1.9 in 7 patients with PLP, which was significantly higher than (2.4${\pm}$0.9) patients without a PLP (p=0.023). The mean duration of recurrences was 17.4${\pm}$19.8 months (range, 2 days to 72 months). Conclusion: A careful search for a PLP should be performed to prevent recurrence of intussusception, especially when intussusception has recurred more than three times.

Having a variety of good characteristics against other pattern recognition techniques, Multilayer Perceptron (MLP) has been used in wide applications. But, it is known that Error Backpropagation (EBP) algorithm which MLP uses in learning has a defect that requires relatively long leaning time. Because learning data in pattern recognition contain abundant redundancies, in order to increase learning speed it is very effective to use online-based teaming methods, which update parameters of MLP pattern by pattern. Typical online EBP algorithm applies fixed learning rate for each update of parameters. Though a large amount of speedup with online EBP can be obtained by choosing an appropriate fixed rate, fixing the rate leads to the problem that the algorithm cannot respond effectively to different leaning phases as the phases change and the learning pattern areas vary. To solve this problem, this paper defines learning as three phases and proposes a Instant Learning by Varying Rate and Skipping (ILVRS) method to reflect only necessary patterns when learning phases change. The basic concept of ILVRS is as follows. To discriminate and use necessary patterns which change as learning proceeds, (1) ILVRS uses a variable learning rate which is an error calculated from each pattern and is suppressed within a proper range, and (2) ILVRS bypasses unnecessary patterns in loaming phases. In this paper, an experimentation is conducted for speaker verification as an application of pattern recognition, and the results are presented to verify the performance of ILVRS.

To increase wireless capacity, the concurrent use of multiple wireless interfaces on different frequency bands, called aggregation, can be considered. In this paper, we focus on aggregation of multiple Wi-Fi interfaces with packet-level traffic spreading between the interfaces. Two aggregation schemes, link bonding and multipath TCP (MPTCP), are tested and compared in a dualband Wi-Fi radio system with their Linux implementation. Various test conditions such as traffic types, network delay, locations, interface failures and configuration parameters are considered. Experimental results show that aggregation increases throughput performance significantly over the use of a single interface. Link bonding achieves lower throughput than MPTCP due to duplicate TCP acknowledgements (ACKs) resulting from packet reordering and filtering such duplicate ACKs out is considered as a possible solution. However, link bonding is fast responsive to links' status changes such as a link failure. It is shown that different combinations of interface weights for packet spread in link bonding result in different throughput performance, envisioning a spatio-temporal adaptation of the weights. We also develop a mathematical model of power consumption and compare the power efficiency of the schemes applying different power consumption profiles.

The lack of specialties of the existing commercial web search systems stems from the fact that they have no capabilities to extract and gather the meaningful information from each information domain they cover. We are sure, however, that the necessity for the information integration system, not just search system, will be likely to become larger in the future. In this paper, we propose a design and implementation of an information integration system called TIC(target information collector). TIC is able to extract meaningful information from a specific information area in the internet and integrate them for the commercial service. We also show the evaluation results of our implementation. For the experiments we applied our TIC to the international procurement information area. The international procurement information is publicly and freely announced by each government to the world. To automatically extract common properties from the related source sites, we adopt information pointing technique using inter-HTML tag pattern parsing. And through the information integration framework design, we can easily implement a site-specific information integration engine. By running our TIC for about 8 months, we find out it can remove considerable amount of the duplicated information, and as a result, we can obtain high quality international procurement information. The main contribution of this paper is to present a framework design and it's implementation for extracting the information of a specific area and then integrating them into a meaningful one.

As PDA, IMT-2000, and e-Book are developed and popular in these days, the number of users who use these products has been increasing. However, available memory size of these machines is still smaller than that of desktop PCs. In these products, TrueType fonts have been increased in demand because the number of users who want to use good quality fonts has increased, and TrueType fonts are of great use in Windows CE products. However, TrueType fonts take a large portion of available device memory, considering the small memory sizes of mobile devices. Therefore, it is required to reduce the size of TrueType fonts. In this paper, two-phase compression techniques are presented for the purpose of reducing the sire of hangul bitmap data embedded in TrueType fonts. In the first step, each character in bitmap is divided into initial consonant, medial vowel, and final consonant, respectively, then the character is recomposed into the composite bitmap. In the second phase, if any two consonants or vowels are determined to be the same, one of them is removed. The TrueType embedded bitmaps in Hangeul Wanseong (pre-composed) and Hangul Johab (pre-combined) are used in compression. By using our compression techniques, the compression rates of embedded bitmap data for TrueType fonts can be reduced around 35% in Wanseong font, and 7% in Johab font. Consequently, the compression rate of total TrueType Wanseong font is about 9.26%.

In this paper, DLKF (Deep Learning Keypoint Filtering), the deep learning-based keypoint filtering method for the rapidization of the image registration method for remote sensing images is proposed. The complexity of the conventional feature-based image registration method arises during the feature matching step. To reduce this complexity, this paper proposes to filter only the keypoints detected in the artificial structure among the keypoints detected in the keypoint detector by ensuring that the feature matching is matched with the keypoints detected in the artificial structure of the image. For reducing the number of keypoints points as preserving essential keypoints, we preserve keypoints adjacent to the boundaries of the artificial structure, and use reduced images, and crop image patches overlapping to eliminate noise from the patch boundary as a result of the image segmentation method. the proposed method improves the speed and accuracy of registration. To verify the performance of DLKF, the speed and accuracy of the conventional keypoints extraction method were compared using the remote sensing image of KOMPSAT-3 satellite. Based on the SIFT-based registration method, which is commonly used in households, the SURF-based registration method, which improved the speed of the SIFT method, improved the speed by 2.6 times while reducing the number of keypoints by about 18%, but the accuracy decreased from 3.42 to 5.43. Became. However, when the proposed method, DLKF, was used, the number of keypoints was reduced by about 82%, improving the speed by about 20.5 times, while reducing the accuracy to 4.51.

The purpose of this study is to suggest a direction for efficient teaching and learning idiomatic expressions in Korean to improve the vocabulary of Korean language learners. In order to make learning more interesting and enhance learning effectiveness for Korean language learners, the drama, , which was popular in Korea, was used as educational material. Since idomatic language is formed and used based on Korean history, culture, and social background, dramas containing Korean culture and sentiments can be said to be suitable materials for the teaching and learning of Korean idiomatic expressions. By analyzing the drama , 277 significant vocabularies were extracted from the drama based on vocabulary actually used. Among these, 124 idiomatic expressions were extracted after excluding overlapping expressions. Idiomatic expressions extracted in this way were classified based on vocabulary used more than 2 times. In addition, in order to select idiomatic expressions suitable for the level of the learners, 46 final expressions for Korean language education were selected considering the difficulty of vocabulary. Lastly, when the materials selected in the drama were used for education, the precautions for teaching and learning, and the direction of education on idiomatic language were classified into elementary, intermediate, and advanced grades and presented.

In this study, we analyzed the rickshaw (Owned by the Daegu Modern History Museum) by measuring each material. The purpose of the study was to identify the materials in modern cultural assets that utilize a variety of materials in a complex way, and establish basic data for preservation and management. Using portable X-ray fluorescence analyzers (P-XRF), species identification, fiber identification, paint film analysis (microscope observation, SEM-EDS, FTIR) on metal, wood, fiber and paint was carried out. Brass, an alloy of Copper, Zinc and Iron, was measured in the metal parts. Further, wooden parts, such as Oak (Quercus acutissima), Japanese Cedar (Cryptomeria japonica), Bamboo (Bambusoideae). Torreya nucifera (Torreya spp.) were identified in the body. Fiber parts consisted mainly of cotton, but some parts were also made of leather. In terms of paint, rickshaws were applied with multiple layers, using cashew (synthetic paint used in place of lacquer). In sum, the rickshaw body part appeared to overlap with layers of fiber, metal (soild), paint, and colored (black, red) layer.

As smart phones are becoming popular, an operating system is being used at wearable devices, home appliances and smart TVs. A user is able to use various applications on devices with operating system, but there is an increased threat of hacker. Thus, the technology for detecting the forgery of applications is becoming more important on operating system. To detect the forgery of the application, a digital signature technology is used on the filed of application digital signature. According to W3C recommendation, the signing process of application digital signature must be performed at least twice, and the applications which are signed by the application digital signature have to be validated for all signature files when the application is installed in the operating system. Hence, the performance of the application digital signature validation system is closely related to the installer performance on the operating system. Existing validation system has performance degradation due to redundancy of integrity verification among application components. This research was conducted to improve the performance of the application digital signature validation system. The proposal of validation system which is applied proxy system shows a performance improvement compared to the existing verification system.

정보화 사회에서 대량으로 생산된 데이타 코드들은 일관된 설계 원칙없이 필요할 때마다 만들어 사용함으로써 정보의 중복 저장 및 정보교환에 있어서의 변환 작업등으로 인한 경비의 소요가 상당한 실정이다. 이러한 문제점에 대한 해결책으로 본 논문에서는 데이타코드 설계자가 일관성있게 데이타코드를 생성할 수 있도록 도와주는 데이타 코드 생성 지원 전문가 시스템의 설계에 관하여 연구하였다. 불완전 영역 설계를 위한 지식 획득과 표현에 적합한 전문가 시스템 쉘인 GUESS(Guideline Underlying Expert system Shell)를 설계하였다. GUESS는 전문가 시스템을 설계 지원 도구로 사용하는 사용자에게 기존에 작성된 적절한 설계 용례를 선택의 기준으로 제공하며, 유연성 있는 작업 지침들을 규칙으로 포함하고 있다. GUESS는 Prolog언어를 기반으로 한 추론기관과 설계지침을 포함하는 정적지식, 외부 데이타베이스를 연결한 동적 정보, 설계 세부방법을 담고 있는 부가도구들로 구성된다. GUESS/DCG는 데이타 코드 생성을 지원하기 위하여 데이타 코드의 유형과 선택기준 및 설계원리를 정적지식으로 가지며, 이를 경험적으로 탐색하는 추론 기관 및 사용자인 데이타 코드 설계자와 적절한 대화식 접근을 가능하게 하는 설명부분과 대화 인터페이스를 GUESS를 바탕으로 구현한 것이다. 특히 동적 정보의 적절한 이용과 데이타 코드의 통합된 저장, 일관성 있는 운영을 보장하기 위하여 개발중인 데이타 코드 관리시스템과의 인터페이스 부분을 추가하여 기존에 운영되고 있는 데이타 코드의 참고와 호환성, 확장성을 유지하였다. 이 시스템은 데이타 코드 관리시스템에 일관된 생성 수단을 제공하는것 외에도, 각 기관에서 대량으로 작성되는 데이타 코드를 유지, 보수하는 작업에도 큰 기여를 할 것이다.지의 선택작업이 행해지는 경우에 촛점을 맞추었다. 그리하여 다작업장의 휴리스틱에 의거한 작업순서 결정을 위해 우선 BB의 상한을 구하는 연구를 행했다. 이를 위해 우선 단일작업장에서 야기될 수 있는 모든 상황을 고려한 최적 작업순서 결정규칙을 연구했으며, 이의 증명을 위해 이 규칙에 의거했을 때의 보완작업량이 최소가 된다는 것을 밝혔다. 보완작업 계산의 효율성을 제고하기 위해 과부하(violation)개념을 도입하였으며, 작업유형이 증가된 상황에서도 과부하 개념이 보완작업량을 충분히 반영할 수 있음을 밝혔다. 본 연구에서 제시한 최적 작업순서 규칙에 의거했을 때 야기될 수 있는 여러가지 경우의 과부하를 모두 계산했다. 앞에서 개발된 단일작업량의 최적 작업순서 결정규칙을 이용하여 다작업장의 문제를 실험했다. 이 문제는 규모가 매우 크므로 Branch & Bound를 이용하였으며, 각 가지에서 과부하량이 최적인 경우만을 고려하는 휴리스틱을 택하여 실험자료를 이용하여 여러 회 반복실험을 행했다. 그리고 본 연구의 성과를 측정하기 위해 휴리스틱 기법시 소요되는 평균 CPU time 범위에서, 랜덤 작업순서에 따른 작업할당을 반복실험하여 이중 가장 좋은 해와 비교했다. 그러나 앞으로 다작업장 문제를 다룰 때, 각 작업장 작업순서들의 상관관계를 고려하여 보다 개선된 해를 구하기 위한 연구가 요구된다. 또한, 준비작업비용을 발생시키는 작업장의 작업순서결정에 대해서도 연구를 행하여, 보완작업비용과 준비비용을 고려한 GMMAL 작업순서문제를 해결하기 위한 연구가 수행되어야 할 것이다.로 이루어 져야 할 것이다.태를 보다 효율적으로 증진시킬 수 있는 대안이 마련되어져야 한다고 사료된다.$\ulcorner$순응$\lrcorner$의 범위를 벗어나지 않는다. 그렇기 때문에도
