  • We present a case of unresectable cancer of the base of tongue treated with hypofractionated 3D conformal radiotherapy and concomitant chemotherapy. Based on the excellent tumour response in this radiotherapy regimen and international experience in short course treatments we shortly reviewed, we propose that this therapeutic approach could be considered in a curative setting for patients unsuitable for the a standard long course radiochemotherapy schedule.

  • Esophageal perforation after endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration for mediastinal staging is a rare but severe complication. We report 2 cases of patients with esophageal perforation who were treated using video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery in combination with esophageal stenting. Through these cases, the feasibility of minimally invasive thoracic surgery was evaluated.

  • The aim of this paper is to investigate the relationship between production and perception of Korean vowels by Koreans and Poles. The results of the experiments proved that the relation is not linear and that there might be other factors that influence the perception and production than those investigated here. In most of the cases, the comparison of the formant values (F1, F2) between Koreans and Poles proved to determine the perception. However, in some cases certain vowels pronounced by Poles were not perceived as the intended ones, although they showed no significant differences with those pronounced by Koreans and perceived as they were intended to be.

  • The aim of the present study was to assess the importance of siderophore producing rhizobacteria on the growth of Brassica juncea under chromium stress. Pseudomonas sp. (A4) produced an iron chelating substance siderophores in iron deficient medium. Under chromium stress condition Pseudomenas sp. (A4) markedly increased the root and shoot length and also biomass of Brassica juncea as compared to Pseudomonas sp. (A3). This plant growth promotion has been related to the microbial production of siderophores.

  • The Plant growth Promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR), Pseudomonas sp. (A3) and Bacillus sp. (AT33) were isolated from the rhizosphere of Amaranthus blitum collected from soil contaminated with chromium. Both bacterial strains quantitatively reduced hexavalent chromium to trivalent chromium. Pseudomonas sp. broughter greater conversion of Cr6+ in the medium (100%) as compared to Bacillus sp.(62%). Phaseolus mungo seeds inoculated with Pseudomonas sp. or Bacillus sp. were grown under different concentration of chromium. The monitored parameters included elongation of shoot and root, fresh weight, dry weight and concentration of chromium in the shoot and root systems. As compared to non inoculated seedlings those inoculated with A3 and AT33 exhibited better growth.

  • In this paper we describe DCClass, a tool for fuzzy information granulation with transparency constraints. The tool is particularly suited to solve fuzzy classification problems, since it is able to automatically extract information granules with class labels. For transparency pursuits, the resulting information granules are represented in form of fuzzy Cartesian product of one-dimensional fuzzy sets. As a key feature, the proposed tool is capable to self-determining the optimal granularity level of each one-dimensional fuzzy set by exploiting class information. The resulting fun information granules can be directly translated in human-comprehensible fuzzy rules to be used for class inference. The paper reports preliminary experimental results on a medical diagnosis problem that shows the utility of the proposed tool.

  • 손 제스처는 스마트 글래스 등 웨어러블 기기의 NUI(Natural User Interface)로 부각되고 있으며 이를 위해서는 손 제스처 검출 및 인식 기능이 요구된다. 또한, 최근 MPEG 에서는 IoT(Internet of Thing) 환경에서의 미디어 소비를 위한 표준으로 IoMTW(Media-centric IoT and Wearable) 사전 탐색이 진행되고 있으며, 손 제스처를 표현하기 위한 메타데이터도 하나의 표준 기술요소로 논의되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 스마트 글래스 환경에서의 손 제스처 인식을 위한 과정으로 스테레오 영상을 통한 손 윤곽선 검출과 이를 메타데이터로 서술하기 위하여 베지에(Bezier) 곡선으로 표현하는 기법을 제시한다.

  • 본 논문에서는 정지영상에 주로 적용되어 왔던 히스토그램 등화 (histogram equalization) 기법을 실시간 동영상 화질향상에 이용할 수 있도록 확장한다. 우선, 동영상의 히스토그램 등화를 실시간으로 동작하기 위한 방안으로, 이전 프레임들의 히스토그램을 이용하여 현재 프레임의 변환 함수를 구성하는 방법을 제안한다. 또한 페이드-인 (fade-in) 등과 같이 장면 전환을 위한 특수 효과를 적용한 동영상이나 장면의 특성상 낮은 화소값이나 높은 화소값들만으로 구성된 동영상에 대해 히스토그램 등화를 적용할 경우 발생하는 문제점을 극복하기 위한 방법을 제시한다. 따라서 제안하는 알고리듬을 적용하여 동영상의 히스토그램 등화를 수행하면 실시간 동영상 처리가 가능할 뿐만 아니라, 다양한 특수 기법들을 사용한 동영상을 효과적으로 개선하여 향상된 화질의 동영상을 얻을 수 있다.

  • Eletrophysiological methods revealed subclinical neuropathy in 26 workers, exposed from 1 to 17 years to lead and whose blood lead (PbB) values had never exceeded $70{\mu}g/100\;ml$, as ascertained by checking the monitor reports of the factory and by careful exposure history. The PbB determinations had been tested repostedly and had been found valid. The main findings were slowing of the maximal motor conduction velocities of the median and ulnar nerves and particularly the conduction velocity of the slower fibers of the ulnar nerve. Eletrophysiological abnormalities comprised fibriliations, diminution of the number of motor units on maximal contraction, and an abnormal. Thus, a dose-response relationship exlets on a group basis. Since the regular monitoring of PbBs in most workers during their entire period of exposure excludes the possibility of a body burden out of proportion to the PbBs silght neuro-logical damage is produced at exposures hitherto regarded as quite sale.

  • Lichen-forming fungal proteins have been seldom searched due to many difficulties in their extraction. Phenols, quinones, proteases, and other components released during cell disruption have been known to be the greatest challenges related to protein extraction from lichens. To overcome these problems and maintain good electrophoretic resolution and high protein concentration, an extraction buffer containing polyvinylpolypyrrolidone, ascorbic acid, Triton X-100, polyethylene glycol, proteinase, and oxidase inhibitors in sodium phosphate buffer was developed. This extraction buffer showed high efficiency for all lichen species tested in the study.
