In this paper, we propose the algorithm that improves the linearity of the walking assistant robot on lateral slopes. The walking assistant robot goes out of the course due to the rotational moment which is caused by the weight of the robot and the slope. To compensate this, we give the weight to each driving axle after comparing the real rotational angular velocity with the target rotational angular velocity which is entered by an user. The results of applying the algorithm to the real walking assistant robot show that the yaw axis deviation of the robot without the algorithm diverges, but the yaw axis deviation of the robot with the algorithm lies within 20cm, which can be recognized as stable. In addition, the changing rate of the course deviation is stabilized and shows no more course deviation, after moving 300cm.

단일광자방출전산화 단층촬영술을 이용한 영상정보를 효과적으로 얻기 위하여 고려되어야 할 사항으로는 1) 조준기(collimator)의 선택, 2) 기질(matrix)의 크기, 3) 회전각의 수 (number of angles), 4) 360도 또는 180도 획득(acquisition), 5) continuous 또는 step& shoot, 6) 원형 또는 비원형회전 등이 있다. 저자들은 비원형회전으로 검체와 검출기 사이의 거리를 단축시킴으로써 직선성, 균일성, 대조도, 해상력에 미치는 영향을 알아보기 위하여 원형회전 방법과 비교하여 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. (1) 비원형회전을 하여도 균일성(uniformity)과 직선성(linearlity)을 유지한다. (2) 균일성, 대조도(contrast), 해상력(resolution)들이 비원형 회전을 한 경우에 보다 더 개선되었다. (3) 영상 획득시간은 비원형회전인 경우에 더 소요되었다. (매스캔 당 10분) 따라서 검사자는 영상 화질의 개선효과와 상반되는 보정(calibration)과 설치(set-up)에 소요되는 시간(매스캔당 10분이상)을 비교하여 자료획득(data acquisition) 회전방법을 선택하여야한다.

INS(inertial navigation system) aligns itself using gravity and Earth's rotational rate from accelerometers and gyro sensors when stationary. Typically, ZUPT(zero velocity update), which is based on a linear error model Kalman filter, is used when it is stationary. However, such algorithms assume stationary conditions, leading to increased alignment errors or filter divergence during maritime mooring due to wave-induced motion. This paper designs a mooring alignment algorithm for maritime platforms using a Kalman filter, which uses large heading angle error model and an initial position correction technique. And it is validated by simulation. Furthermore, it is confirmed that applying this to a rotational INS dramatically improves performance through the principle of bias cancellation.

Aerodynamic data measured in a wind tunnel has inevitable errors due to the presence of the wind tunnel walls. These unwanted interference effects must be corrected for the wall interference free aerodynamic data. Streamline curvature effects are caused by straightening of streamlines due to wind tunnel walls. Classical Glauert's correction method that is a standard method for fixed wing aircraft is not suitable for rotary wing aircraft. In this paper, Heyson's correction method of which wake model is compatible with rotors is used to correct the rotor shaft angle as well as the dynamic pressure. The results of Heyson's method are compared with Glauert's correction method.

In this paper, we propose a new inspection method that applies fuzzy reasoning method considering the difference of brightness and intensity of illumination by bend together. In the preprocessing phase, we compensate the degree of semiconductor images with bilinear interpolation and moment-rotation. Then we use fuzzy reasoning method with the difference of brightness from error region by pattern matching and the difference of intensity of illumination from bends. Then the result is difuzzified and applied to the final inspection process. In experiment which uses 30 real world semiconductors with strait shots and side shots, the proposed method successfully discard the false positive identified by conventional brightness comparison only method without any loss of misidentification.

Purpose Patient motion during myocardial perfusion SPECT can produce images that show visual artifacts and perfusion defects. This artifacts and defects remain a significant source of unsatisfactory myocardial perfusion SPECT. Motion correction has been developed as a way to correct and detect the patient motion for reducing artifacts and defects, and each motion correction uses different algorithm. We corrected simulated motion patterns with several motion correction methods and compared those images. Materials and Methods Phantom study was performed. The anthropomorphic torso phantom was made with equal counts from patient's body and simulated defect was added in myocardium phantom for to observe the change in defect. Vertical motion was intentionally generated by moving phantom downward in a returning pattern and in a non-returning pattern throughout the acquisition. In addition, Lateral motion was generated by moving phantom upward in a returning pattern and in a non-returning pattern. The simulated motion patterns were detected and corrected similarly to no-motion pattern image and QPS score, after Motion Detection and Correction Method (MDC), stasis, Hopkins method were applied. Results In phantom study, Changes of perfusion defect were shown in the anterior wall by the simulated phantom motions, and inferior wall's defect was found in some situations. The changes derived from motion were corrected by motion correction methods, but Hopkins and Stasis method showed visual artifact, and this visual artifact did not affect to perfusion score. Conclusion It was confirmed that motion correction method is possible to reduce the motion artifact and artifactual perfusion defect, through the apply on the phantom tests. Motion Detection and Correction Method (MDC) performed better than other method with polar map image and perfusion score result.

본 연구는 비규격화시켜 촬영한 두장의 방사선 사진을 일반 영상처리 프로그램으로 기하학적 보정을 하여 디지탈 공제 촬영술을 시행한 결과를 개인별로 제작된 필름유지장치를 이용하여 규격화 시켜 촬영한 두장의 방사선사진을 디지탈 공제 촬영술을 시행한 결과와 비교하여 일반 영상처리 프로그램의 임상적 유용성을 평가해보고자 시행하였다. 19명의 자원자를 대상으로 하여, 각 환자에서 4매의 하악구치부 치근단 사진을 촬영하였다. 그중 2매는 XCP 필름 유지장치만으로 평행촬영법으로 촬영하였고, 나머지 2매는 교합제에 인상재를 부가하여 개인별로 제작된 XCP필름 유지장치를 이용하여 표준화시켜 역시 평행촬영법으로 촬영하였다. 기하학적 보정은 "Adobe Photoshop"과 "NIH Image" 프로그램으로 시행하였다. 특히 "Adobe Photoshop"의 임의영상회전 기능과 "IH Image"의 공제시술시 중첩된 사진을 투명하게 보여주는 기능, 병진기능을 활용하였다. 두 사진의 유사성을 측정하기 위해 공제된 사진의 계조도의 표준편차를 구하였다. 표준화군의 평균 표준편차가 기하학적 보정군의 평균 표준편차보다 약간 낮았으나, 통계적으로 유의성이 있는 차이를 보이지는 않았다. 위의 결과로 미루어보아, 하악구치부 에서 XCP필름 유지장치로 평행촬영한 비표준화방사선사진을 "Adobe Photoshop"과 "NIH Image" 프로그램을 이용하여 기하학적 보정을 할 수 있으리라 사료된다.

Using the 2-D and 3-D Hoffman brain phantom, 3-D Jaszczak phantom and Single Photon Emission Computed Tomography, the effects of data acquisition parameter, attenuation, noise, scatter and reconstruction algorithm on image quantitation as well as image quality were studied. For the data acquisition parameters, the images were acquired by changing the increment angle of rotation and the radius. The less increment angle of rotation resulted in superior image quality. Smaller radius from the center of rotation gave better image quality, since the resolution degraded as increasing the distance from detector to object increased. Using the flood data in Jaszczak phantom, the optimal attenuation coefficients were derived as 0.12cm$\^$-1/ for all collimators. Consequently, the all images were corrected for attenuation using the derived attenuation coefficients. It showed concave line profile without attenuation correction and flat line profile with attenuation correction in flood data obtained with jaszczak phantom. And the attenuation correction improved both image qulity and image quantitation. To study the effects of noise, the images were acquired for 1min, 2min, 5min, 10min, and 20min. The 20min image showed much better noise characteristics than 1min image indicating that increasing the counting time reduces the noise characteristics which follow the Poisson distribution. The images were also acquired using dual-energy windows, one for main photopeak and another one for scatter peak. The images were then compared with and without scatter correction. Scatter correction improved image quality so that the cold sphere and bar pattern in Jaszczak phantom were clearly visualized. Scatter correction was also applied to 3-D Hoffman brain phantom and resulted in better image quality. In conclusion, the SPECT images were significantly affected by the factors of data acquisition parameter, attenuation, noise, scatter, and reconstruction algorithm and these factors must be optimized or corrected to obtain the useful SPECT data in clinical applications.

This study was investigated the changes during treatment and retention period in the Class III malocclusion patients and explored the correlationship between factors that showed relapse tendencies and pre-treatment skeletal pattern and the changes during treatment period. Numbers of total sample were 24 and their Hellman's dental age at the start of treatment was over III B and were retained at least over 1 year 6 months. The following conclusion were obtained by comparing the differences between treatment period and retention period, and after analysing the correlationship of factors that manifested relapse tendencies. 1. The angles formed by FH plane and occlusal plane, FH plane and mandibular plane, and mandibular incisor and mandibular plane changes showed rebound effect during retention period and among them occlusal plane angle and IMPA show reverse correlationship. 2. Upward displacement of the occlusal plane at the end of treatment has returning tendency, is proportional to the displacement during treatment period, but the angle between maxillary and mandibular 1st molar to its basal bone have been constantlsy maintained during the retention period. 3. Mandibular plane decrease during retention period and downward backward rotation during treatment period show correlationship.
