In this paper, we propose the rapid implementation of a 3-dimensional (3D) facial reconstruction from a single frontal face image and introduce a design for its application on a mobile device. The proposed system can effectively reconstruct human faces in 3D using an approach robust to lighting conditions, and a fast method based on a Canonical Correlation Analysis (CCA) algorithm to estimate the depth. The reconstruction system is built by first creating 3D facial mapping from a personal identity vector of a face image. This mapping is then applied to real-world images captured with a built-in camera on a mobile device to form the corresponding 3D depth information. Finally, the facial texture from the face image is extracted and added to the reconstruction results. Experiments with an Android phone show that the implementation of this system as an Android application performs well. The advantage of the proposed method is an easy 3D reconstruction of almost all facial images captured in the real world with a fast computation. This has been clearly demonstrated in the Android application, which requires only a short time to reconstruct the 3D depth map.

Purpose: As Korea has been rapidly transformed to be a multicultural society, it becomes essential for nurses to develop cultural competency. The purpose of this descriptive study was to assess the cultural competency level of general hospital nurses and to examine its contributing factors adopting ecological model. Method: A convenience sample of 327 nurses from six general hospitals in Seoul metropolitan area was recruited between November 14 to 28, 2011. Cultural competency was measured using the Korean version of the Caffrey Cultural Competence in Healthcare Scale (CCCHS) and Cultural Competence Assessment(CCA). Hierarchical multiple regression analysis was performed to assess the influence of intrapersonal, cultural-experience, and organizational factors on cultural competency. Results: Mean cultural competency in this study was 2.57(${\pm}0.43$). Cultural competency was associated with job position (p=.044) at the intrapersonal level. At the cultural experience level, foreign language classes experience (p=.005), fluency in a foreign language (p=.000), experience of working with foreign health care professionals (p=.000) were associated cultural competency. At the organizational level, training program (p=.000), job description (p=.002), health education materials (p=.016), insufficient job control (p=.000), and interpersonal conflicts (p=.011) showed significant difference. Foreign language class experience, foreign language fluency, experience of working with foreign health care professionals, and job control were the most consistent predictors of cultural competence and explained 20.4% of the total variance in the proposed ecological model. Conclusions: The findings suggest that to enhance cultural competency in general hospital nurses, cultural experience and organizational factors need to be more fully considered than intrapersonal factors.

한국 남해 연안에 출현하는 춘 하계 어류 자치어 군집의 조성과 분포 특성을 파악하기 위하여 2016년 5월부터 9월까지 남해의 세 해역(여수, 남해, 통영)에서 RN80 네트를 이용해 매월 1회 채집하였다. 조사기간 동안 총 50개 분류군의 자치어가 채집되었고, 이 중 멸치가 전체 출현 개체수의 56.8 %로 가장 우점하였으며, 청보리멸, 청베도라치, 망둑어과 타입A, 청베도라치과, 앞동갈베도라치 등이 각각 2 % 이상의 개체수비를 보여 우점하였으며, 이상 6개 분류군이 전체 출현 자치어의 87.5 %를 차지하였다. ANOSIM 결과 해역 간에 자치어 조성의 유의한 차이는 없었으나, 시기적으로는 유의한 차이를 보였다. 정준대응분석 결과 이러한 자치어 군집의 시기적 변동은 주로 수온 변화에 의한 것으로 나타났다.

In this paper, we propose the augmented reality(AR) based driving navigation based on robust lane detection method to dynamic environment changes. The proposed technique uses the detected lane position as a marker which is a key element for enhancing driving information. We propose Symmetrical Local Threshold(SLT) algorithm which is able to robustly detect lane to dynamic illumination environment change such as shadows. In addition, by using Morphology operation and Connected Component Analysis(CCA) algorithm, it is possible to minimize noises in the image, and Region Of Interest(ROI) is defined through region division using a straight line passing through several vanishing points We also propose the augmented reality aided visualization method for Interchange(IC) and driving navigation using reference point detection based on the detected lane coordinates inside and outside the ROI. Validation experiments were carried out to assess the accuracy and robustness of the proposed system in vairous environment changes. The average accuracy of the proposed system in daytime, nighttime, rainy day, and cloudy day is 79.3% on 4600 images. The results of the proposed system for AR based IC and driving navigation were also presented. We are hopeful that the proposed research will open a new discussion on AR based driving navigation platforms, and thus, that such efforts will enrich the autonomous vehicle services in the near future.

Purpose : The Carotid Angio inspection including Aortic arch applied to wide area is conducted as the Contrast Enhance MR Angiography(CEA) which is using a contrast medium. However it is a burden not only for someone such as infants, pregnant women and patients suffering from kidney failure but continuous use of contrast medium also can be a burden for patients who has been taken follow up inspection since diagnose lesion already. The purpose of this study is to estimate a usefulness of the Time of Flight (TOF) by comparing with CEA. Materials and methods : 10 patients with an average age of 58 (from 45 to 75) who had MRA inspection in our hospital were studied using 3.0 Tesla Aachieva (Philips, Netherland) MRI system and Sense Neuro-Vascular 16 Channels Coil. The same patient was inspected both TOF and CEA simultaneously. The TOF inspection included from Aortic arch to Willis Circle by connecting 3 TOF stacks and so did CEA inspection. The quantitative analysis was conducted through signal to noise ratio(SNR) and contrast to noise ratio(CNR) with soft tissue by setting up an area of interest on CCA bifurcatoin, ICA, ECA, MCA and VA concerning obtained image. In case of qualitative analysis, 3 radiological technologists and 1 radiologist evaluated 4 items (1: Visibility of the blood vessel, 2: Image distortion measure, 3: Overlapping measure with vein, 4: Peripheral blood vessel description measure) into five points scale (1: Very bad, 2: Bad, 3: Normal 4: Good, 5: Very good). Results : Results for the quantitative analysis was obtained by calculating the average of 5 ROIs in case of SNR and CNR separately. Results of SNR, TOF were generally measured higher than CEA (In case of TOF were 166.1, 205.2, 154.39, 172.23, 161.95, and CEA were 92.05, 95.43, 84.76, 73.69, 88.3). But according to the result of CNR, both TOF and CEA were measured similarly as 67.62, 106.71, 55.9, 73.74, 63.46 for TOF and 67.82, 71.19, 60.52, 49.45, 64.07 for CEA. Throughout every results of each ROI, SNR showed statistically meaningful consequence (0.050.05). In case of qualitative analysis the average of each evaluated item was 4.2points and 4.28points in the item1, 2.93points and 4.55points in the item2, 4.6points and 3.13points in the item3, 2.88points and 4.6points in the item4. According to the results TOF was measured higher in the item3 while in the item2 and item4 CEA was higher and in case of the item1, both CEA and TOF were similar. To sum up statistically meaningful results (p<0.05) were shown in the item2, item3 and item4 but not in the item1 (p>0.05). Conclusions : Both TOF and CEA are complementary because each inspection has pros and cons, but when inspect wide area including Aortic arch normally CEA is conducted. But TOF inspection also can be considered as alternative in terms of patients who has difficulty in the contrast medium such as infants, pregnant women and patients suffering from kidney failure and patients during follow up.

본 연구에서 Acartia hongi 춘계 개체군 형성의 영향 요인을 파악하기 위해 알 생산, 알 부화시간, 알 포식에 관한 조사가 수행되었다. 알 생산은 동계부터 춘계 사이에 높은 수준을 유지하였다. 알 생산은 수온이 $7^{\circ}C$ 이하일 때 수온 증가에 따라 증가하였으며, 수온 $7\sim21^{\circ}C$ 사이에서는 클로로필 a 농도와 유의한 양의 상관관계를 나타냈다. 알부화 시간$(D_e,\;day)$은 수온$(T,\;^{\circ}C)$에 따라 다음과 같은 회귀식이 얻어졌다. $D_e=18.9(T-0.4)^{-1.0}$ 알 부화 시간은 수온 $5^{\circ}C$ 이하에서 급격히 길어지는 경향을 보였다. 시간차에 따른 A. hongi의 성장 단계별 현존량 변화의 상관관계를 보기 위해 교차상관분석(CCA)을 수행하였다. 개체군 알 생산율에 부화시간을 고려한 알 생산은 개체군 알 생산을 보다 노플리우스 현존량과 유의한 상관관계를 보였다. 이는 부화 시간도 개체군 형성에 영향 요인이 됨을 의미하며, 특히 동계에 높은 일간 알 생산율과 저수온에 대한 부화 지연으로 야기된 높은 알 현존량은 춘계 초기 노플리우스 개체군의 기원이 될 것으로 본다. 춘계 개체군 형성의 부정적인 요인으로 Noctiluca scintillans의 알 포식이 관찰되었다 N. scintillans전체 개체수의 $2.9\sim21.1%$에서 A. hongi 알이 관찰되었으며, 이는 A. hongi 개체군 알 생산율의 $1.2\sim49.5%$에 해당한다. 결론적으로 A. hongi춘계 개체군 형성에 영향 요인으로 동계 세대에 의한 지속적으로 높은 알 생산, 저수온에 따른 부화 지연 그리고 N. scintillans의 알 포식 등이 고려된다.
