Background: Individuals with forward head posture (FHP) have neck pain. To correct the FHP, a posture correction band is commonly used. However, we do not know the posture correction band influenced the pulmonary function in individuals with FHP. Objects: This study aimed to elucidate the effects of the posture correction band on the pulmonary function in young adults with neck pain and FHP and to monitor how the pulmonary function changed over time. Methods: Twenty subjects with chronic neck pain and forward head posture were recruited. Subjects performed pulmonary function test four times: before, immediately, and 2 hours after wearing the postural band, and immediately after undressing the postural band. Vital capacity (VC), forced vital capacity (FVC), peak expiratory flow (PEF), and forced expiratory volume at one second (FEV1) were measured. The modified Borg dyspnea scale was used to measure each subject's responses to the posture correction band. The mixed-effect linear regression was used to the effect of the posture correction band over time. Results: There were no significant differences in VC, FVC, PEF, FEV1 values over time (p > 0.05), although all values slightly decreased after applying posture correction band. However, the score of the modified Borg scale significantly changed after wearing the postural bands (p < 0.05), indicating the subject felt discomfort with posture correction band during breathing. Conclusion: Because the posture correction band did not change the pulmonary function over time, but it induces psychological discomforts during breathing in people with FHP. Therefore, this posture correction band can be used for FHP realignment after discussion with the subjects.

본 논문은 다양한 구조의 선형 블록 오류정정코드를 소개하고, 이를 회로로 구현하여 비교 분석한 결과를 보여주고 있다. 메모리 시스템에서는 잡음 전력으로 인한 비트 오류를 방지하기 위해 ECC(: Error Correction Code)가 사용되어 왔다. ECC의 종류에는 SEC-DED(: Single Error Correction Double Error Detection)와 SEC-DED-DAEC(: Double Adjacent Error Correction)가 있다. SEC-DED인 Hsiao 코드와 SEC-DED-DAEC인 Dutta, Pedro 코드를 각각 Verilog HDL을 이용해 설계 후 $0.35{\mu}m$ CMOS 공정을 사용해 회로로 합성하였다. 시뮬레이션에 의하면 SEC-DED회로는 인접한 두 개의 비트 오류를 정정하지 못하지만 적은 회로 사용면적과 빠른 지연 시간의 장점이 있으며, SEC-DED-DAEC 회로의 경우 Pedro 코드와 Dutta 코드 간에는 면적, 지연 시간의 차이가 없으므로 오류 정정률이 개선된 Pedro 코드를 사용하는 것이 더 효율적임을 알 수 있다.

Accurate atmospheric correction is essential for the analysis of land surface and environmental monitoring. Aerosol optical depth (AOD) information is particularly important in atmospheric correction because the radiation attenuation by Mie scattering makes the differences between the radiation calculated at the satellite sensor and the radiation measured at the land surface. Thus, it is necessary to use high-quality AOD data for an appropriate atmospheric correction of high-resolution satellite images. In this study, we examined the Second Simulation of a Satellite Signal in the Solar Spectrum (6S)-based atmospheric correction results for the Sentinel-2 images in South Korea using raster AOD (MODIS) and single-point AOD (AERONET). The 6S result was overall agreed with the Sentinel-2 level 2 data. Moreover, using raster AOD showed better performance than using single-point AOD. The atmospheric correction using the single-point AOD yielded some inappropriate values for forest and water pixels, where as the atmospheric correction using raster AOD produced stable and natural patterns in accordance with the land cover map. Also, the Sentinel-2 normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) after the 6S correction had similar patterns to the up scaled drone NDVI, although Sentinel-2 NDVI had relatively low values. Also, the spatial distribution of both images seemed very similar for growing and harvest seasons. Future work will be necessary to make efforts for the gap-filling of AOD data and an accurate bi-directional reflectance distribution function (BRDF) model for high-resolution atmospheric correction. These methods can help improve the land surface monitoring using the future Compact Advanced Satellite 500 in South Korea.

This paper is a study on context-sensitive spelling error correction and uses the Korean WordNet (KorLex)[1] that defines the relationship between words as a graph to improve the performance of the correction[2] based on the vector information of the word embedded in the correction technique. The Korean WordNet replaced WordNet[3] developed at Princeton University in the United States and was additionally constructed for Korean. In order to learn a semantic network in graph form or to use it for learned vector information, it is necessary to transform it into a vector form by embedding learning. For transformation, we list the nodes (limited number) in a line format like a sentence in a graph in the form of a network before the training input. One of the learning techniques that use this strategy is Deepwalk[4]. DeepWalk is used to learn graphs between words in the Korean WordNet. The graph embedding information is used in concatenation with the word vector information of the learned language model for correction, and the final correction word is determined by the cosine distance value between the vectors. In this paper, In order to test whether the information of graph embedding affects the improvement of the performance of context- sensitive spelling error correction, a confused word pair was constructed and tested from the perspective of Word Sense Disambiguation(WSD). In the experimental results, the average correction performance of all confused word pairs was improved by 2.24% compared to the baseline correction performance.

정적 영상 획득 시 기존의 정적 영상 획득 방식 대신 동적 영상 획득 방식을 이용하여 움직임에 의한 motion correction을 적용함으로써 정적 영상 획득 시 발생되는 움직임에 의한 문제점을 해결하고자 하였다. 실험은 capillary tube와 IEC body phantom을 이용하여 움직임이 없을 때 정적 영상 획득 방식으로 얻은 영상과 동적 영상 획득 방식으로 얻은 각각의 frame을 더한 영상에 대해 resolution, frequency, total counts, blind test를 비교 분석하였으며 임의로 최소한의 움직임과 과도한 움직임을 주어 motion correction 전후의 영상에 대해서도 resolution, frequency, total counts, blind test를 비교 분석 하였다. 기존의 정적 영상 획득 방식으로 얻은 영상과 동적 영상 획득 방식으로 얻은 각각의 frame을 더한 영상의 resolution, frequency, total counts, blind test의 결과 값의 차이가 없었다. 또한 최소한의 움직임과 과도한 움직임을 준 영상에 대해 motion correction 적용 전후의 비교 결과 값은 motion correction 후 resolution, frequency, blind test의 결과 값이 움직임이 없을 때의 정적 영상과 거의 차이가 없었다. 하지만 과도한 움직임에 대한 보정 시 frame당 흐림 현상이 많이 발생 하였으므로 좌표 보정이 어려워 frame을 제외하는 방법을 적용하였기 때문에 과도한 motion correction 후 삭제한 frame 수만큼 total counts에서 차이를 보였다. 정적 영상 획득 시 움직임이 예상되는 환자에게 기존의 정적 영상 획득방식이 아닌 동적 영상 획득 방식을 이용하여 움직임 발생시 좌표 보정과 흐림 현상이 심한 frame 제외 방법을 이용하여 정적 영상에서 움직임에 의해 발생되었던 영상의 질 저하와 정량적 분석의 신뢰도 감소, 재검사에 대한 문제점을 해결할 수 있을 것이라고 생각되며 motion correction에 제공되는 다양한 프로그램 개발과 임상 적용에 대한 광범위한 연구가 현실적으로 필요하며 향후 지속적인 연구가 기대되는 바이다.

Purpose: To develop a two-dimensional (2D) image-based respiratory motion correction technique for free-breathing coronary magnetic resonance angiography (MRA). Materials and Methods: The proposed respiratory navigator obtained aliased a 2D sagittal image from under-sampled k-space data and utilized motion correlation between the aliased images. The proposed navigator was incorporated into the conventional coronary MRA sequence including the diaphragm navigator and tested in three healthy subjects. Results: The delineation of major coronary arteries was significantly improved using the proposed 2D motion correction (S/I and A/P) compared to one-dimensional (S/I) correction using the conventional diaphragm navigator. Conclusion: The 2D image-based respiratory navigator was proposed for free-breathing coronary angiography and showed the potential for improving respiratory motion correction compared to the conventional 1D correction.

The characteristics of defect correction method are discussed in a sample heat conduction problem showing the numerical solution of the error correction equation can predict the error of the numerical solution of the original governing equation. A way of using defect correction method combined with the existing algorithm for the incompressible fluid flow, is proposed and subsequently tested for the driven square cavity problem. The error correction equations for the continuity equation and the momentum equations are considered to estimate the errors of the numerical solutions of the original governing equations. With this new approach, better velocity and pressure fields can be obtained by correcting the original numerical solutions using the estimated errors. These calculated errors also can be used to estimate the orders of magnitude of the errors of the original numerical solutions.

In this paper, we present an English pronunciation correction system for Korean speakers and show some of experimental results on it. The aim of the system is to detect mispronounced phonemes in spoken words and to give appropriate correction comments to users. There are several English pronunciation correction systems adopting speech recognition technology, however, most of them use conventional speech recognition engines. From this reason, they could not give phoneme based correction comments to users. In our system, we build two kinds of phoneme models: standard native speaker models and Korean's error models. We also design recognition network based on phonemes to detect Koreans' common mispronunciations. We get 90% detection rate in insertion/deletion/replacement of phonemes, but we cannot get high detection rate in diphthong split and accents.

The images of the meteorological satellite NOAA contain geometrical distortions caused by its ambiguous position, its vibration, its sensor's movement, and so on. Geometric correction of satellite images is one of the most important parts in many remote sensing as the primary processing. Ground control points (GCP's) are necessary to check the accuracy of geometric correction and used for precise geometric correction. In this paper, a method for automatically selecting the residual error is presented. Calculating the effective angle and residual errors vector using the succeeded matching GCP's, precise geometric correction using an affine transformation is applied to systematically a corrected image. And the error is decreased by an affine transformation. The above enable the geometric correction of high quality.

This paper considers the lens distortions such as a fisheye distortion and a perspective distortion. While a fisheye lens has a wide field-of-view, it causes a large distortion to the images. Regardless of a fisheye lens or a rectilinear lens, a lens generates perspective distortion in a vertical direction when the lens views in an upward direction or downward direction. These distortions deform images differently from human visual functions. Therefore, this paper presents a method to correct the distortions, and whereby, the research in this paper enlarges choices of images to image processing algorithm that may select the distorted images and the corrected images depending on applications. An infinite polynomial model is employed in the fisheye radial distortion correction, and the vertical perspective distortion correction is done by using a vanishing point. The methods introduced in this paper are implemented on the images captured by a rear-view camera installed on a vehicle and showed their robustness of the correction.
