영역기반 스테레오 매칭의 분야에서 최근 인간의 시각체계(Human Visual System)에 기반하여 영역내의 밝기값과 거리값에 따라 적응적으로 가중치를 부여하는 적응적 영역 가중치(Adaptive Support-Weight) 방법이 좋은 매칭 결과를 보이고 있다. 하지만 이 방법은 영역 윈도우의 크기가 커짐에 따라 기하급수적으로 계산량이 많아지는 단점을 보이고 있다. 이에 Bilateral filter 수식으로 근사화 후 Integral Histogram 기법을 적용하여 영역 윈도우의 크기에 상관없이 상수 시간 O(1) 내에 매칭을 수행하는 연구가 진행되었다. 하지만 이 방법은 근사화 과정에서의 원 ASW 수식을 왜곡하기 때문에 매칭 정확도의 손실을 가져오게 된다. 이에 본 논문에서는 Bilateral 접근 방식, Sub-Block 방식 및 적응적 시차 탐색 방식에 대하여 각 방식에서 필요한 메모리 자원과 소모되는 계산량의 비용과 동시에 매칭 결과 정확도 면에서 비교하고 가장 좋은 접근 방식을 도출하고자 한다.

양방향 필터 (Bilateral filter)는 에지 보전 평활화 필터로써 디노이징, 반사 제거, 스테레오 매칭 등 다양한 분야에서 사용되고 있다. 이는 기존의 가우시안 필터에 사용되는 공간 도메인 커널 (spatial kernel)이외에 강도 도메인 커널 (range kernel)을 추가로 사용하여 비슷한 강도의 픽셀에 높은 가중치를 부여함으로써 에지를 보전하면서 평활화를 한다. 또한 양방향 필터는 비등방성 확산 필터 (Anisotropic diffusion filter)와 달리 항상 수렴을 보장한다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 고정점 반복 이론을 적용하여 양방향 필터의 수렴을 수학적으로 증명한다.

In this paper, we discuss how the operational calculus can be exploited to the theory of generalized special functions of many variables and many indices. We obtained the generating relations for 3-index, 3-variable and 1-parameter Hermite polynomials. Some mixed type generating relations and bilateral generating relations of many indices and many variable like Lagurre-Hermite and Hermite-Sister Celine's polynomials are also obtained. Further we generalize some results on old symbolic notations using operational identities.

Fractures of lumbo-sacral junction involving bilateral sacral wings are rare. Posterior lumbo-sacral fixation does not always provide with sufficient stability in such cases. Various augmentation techniques including divergent sacral ala screws, S2 pedicle screws and Galveston rods have been reported to improve lumbo-sacral stabilization. Galveston technique using iliac bones would be the best surgical approach especially in patients with bilateral comminuted sacral fractures. However, original Galveston surgery is technically demanding and bending rods into the appropriate alignment is time consuming. We present a patient with unstable lumbo-sacral junction fractures and comminuted U-shaped sacral fractures treated by lumbo-sacro-pelvic fixation using iliac screws and discuss about the advantages of the iliac screws over the rod system of Galveston technique.

Pain from pelvic cancer is very difficult to manage because it's vague ness and bilateral nature. Furthermore, nerve blocks in this area are dangerous because sensory afferent nerves from pelvic viscera are adjacent to nerves that regulate bowel and bladder control, and motor nerve of lower extremities'. Bilateral lumbar sympathectomy has been used for malignant pelvic pain with little risk of neurologic complication. However it is not a specific block for pelvic visceral pain, because the lumbar sympathetic chain does not innervate pelvic viscera in a direct manner. Therefore the potentials of lumbar sympathectomy for pelvic visceral pain are attributed to caudad diffusion of neurolytic agents to the smperior hypogastric plexus. I have experienced 3 cases of superior hypogastric plexus neurolysis per se without any significant complications.

Reducing compression artifacts such as ringing and blocking is one of important issues to improve a visual quality of a JPEG compressed image. In this paper, we propose a new post processing technique based on bilateral filtering (BF), which is one of the techniques that are used to reduce compression artifacts. An important issue with the application of the BF is the selection of the filter parameters, which affects the result significantly. In this work, we suggest a new method to select the filter parameter automatically. In addition to artifact reduction using the BF, a contrast enhancement is performed to overcome the contrast loss problem due to compression. The experimental result shows that the proposed approach can alleviate the artifacts efficiently.

We report a case of C1-2 instability with a bilateral high-riding transverse foramen that was treated with rod-screw fixation using a technique of translaminar rigid screw fixation of the axis. It is believed that a C1-2 fixation with bilateral C-2 translaminar screws has an important advantage over previously reported techniques of C1-2 fixation by eliminating the risk of injury to the vertebral artery during C2 screw placement.

Objective : Unique Internal carotid artery angiographic findings have been found especially in very poor grade aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage[SAH] patients before and during the endovascular coiling. The author investigates their patterns and classifies them into lour subtypes. Methods : Among Hunt&Hess grade IV, V SAH patients, the author could gather eight patients who showed abnormal intracranial circulation in cerebral catheter-based angiography. Results : The author introduces new term 'misery collaterals' first and has classified them into four types with the case illustrations. Type 1 is the worst condition defined as almost no intracranial circulation. Type 2 is the condition of little intracranial circulation with contrast filling just only at vessels of brain base, type 3 is of no or little cortical circulation with contrast filling at bilateral large vessels of brain base through circle of Willis channel and type 4 is of visible bilateral cortical circulation but delayed intracranial circulation time. The prognosis of these eight patients showed misery collaterals were disappointed. Conclusion : These finding can be used as the supportive information in deciding a management plan in poor grade SAH patients.

Dural arteriovenous fistula (DAVF) of the transverse sinus with ophthalmic manifestations in young children are rare. We reviewed two cases of direct AVF of the transverse sinus with ocular manifestations managed at our institution. The first, a 2.5 years old male child presented with left exophthalmos. Angiography revealed AVF between the occipital artery and the transverse sinus. The second, a 2 years old female child, complained of left exophthalmos. Imaging studies showed bilateral direct AVFs of the transverse sinus with bilateral dysmaturation of the sigmoid sinus. Transarterial embolization was done in both cases. Clinical and radiological follow up revealed complete cure. This report suggests that DAVF of the transverse sinus supplied by the external carotid branches can present with ophthalmic manifestations especially if there is distal venous stenosis or obliteration involving sigmoid sinus. Transarterial embolization using coils and liquid embolic agents could be safe and feasible to obliterate the fistula.

We present a case of posterior atlantoaxial screw-rod fixation in a patient with an aberrant vertebral artery (VA) course combined with bilateral high-riding VA. An aberrant VA which courses below the posterior arch of the atlas (C1) that does not pass through the C1 transverse foramen and without an osseous anomaly is rare. However, it is important to consider an abnormal course of the VA both preoperatively and intraoperatively in order to avoid critical vascular injuries in procedures which require exposure or control of the VA, such as the far-lateral approach and spinal operations.
