Acute lateral ankle sprain, which is the most common musculoskeletal injury, can be treated effectively with appropriate evidence-based initial care using PRICE (protection, rest, ice, compression, and elevation) and functional rehabilitation. Many systemic reviews reporting a high-level of evidence supporting the clinical usefulness and necessity of primary surgical repair for acute lateral ankle sprain have been insufficient. Regardless of the severity of ligament complex injuries, the surgical treatment for acute lateral ankle sprain without concomitant pathologies is not recommended and should be considered only in young professional athletes with complete ligament rupture (grade III) and severe instability.

In this paper, we proposed a method for enhancement of color images with sky regions. The input image is converted into HSV space and then sky and non-sky regions are separated. For sky region, saturation enhancement is performed for each pixel based on the enhancement factor calculated from the average saturation of its local neighborhood. On the other hand, for the non-sky region, the enhancement is applied only on the luminance value (V) component of the HSV color image, which is performed in two steps. The luminance enhancement, which is also called as dynamic range compression, is carried out using nonlinear transfer function. Again, each pixel is further enhanced for the adjustment of the image contrast depending upon the center pixel and its neighborhood pixel values. At last, the original H and V component image and enhanced S component image for the sky region, and original H and S component image and enhanced V component image for the non-sky region are converted back to RGB image.

궁극의 3D 디스플레이 기술이라고 할 수 있는 홀로그램 기술로 실물을 보는 것과 같은 3차원 영상이 가능해 지고 있다. 그러나 디지털 홀로그램 영상의 데이터양은 HD나 UHD 영상의 수십에서 수천 배에 달해 원본 화질의 열화를 최소화 하면서 데이터양을 줄이기 위한 압축 부호화 기술이 매우 중요하다. 본 논문에서는 위상 홀로그램 동영상에 대해 최신 영상 압축 표준인 HEVC(High Efficiency Video Coding)와 VVC(Versatile Video Coding)로 압축한 후 홀로그램 영역과 수치 복원 영역에서 압축 성능을 비교하며, 다양한 실험영상에 대한 HEVC 압축 결과에 대해 객관적 압축성능 분석 및 주관적 성능 분석을 진행한다.

본 연구에서는 홀로그램을 현대의 멀티미디어로써 효율적으로 사용하기 위해 필요한 홀로그램 압축 실험으로써 위상 홀로그램에 대한 압축 실험을 진행하였다. 포인트 클라우드로부터 생성한 여러 시점의 정보로 비디오 홀로그램을 생성하였다. 압축실험에선 원래의 홀로그램과 위상 펼침(Phase unwrapping) 방법을 통해 변환된 홀로그램을 비교하며, 동일한 압축률에선 심각한 성능하락은 없었으며, 동일한 QP(Quantization parameter)에선 더 높은 압축률을 보였다.

본 논문에서는 YOLO(You Only Look Once) 사물 인식 알고리즘을 활용하여 영상 압축에 적용한다. YOLO 는 물체의 일반화된 특징을 학습한 뉴럴 네트워크이다. 영상을 압축하는 동시에 YOLO 를 활용하여, 영상 내의 사물을 인식한다. 사물이 인식된 영역을 영상 압축을 할 때, 더 구체적으로 예측을 하는 방법을 제안한다. 본 논문에서 제안하는 방법은 QP(Quantization Parameter)를 조절하여, YOLO 로부터 인식된 사물을 더 정교하게 사물을 부호화/복호화한다. VVC(Versatile Video Coding) 기반에서 Rate-Control 를 사용하며, QP 를 조절한다. QP 는 CTU-Level 단위로 조절하며, 사물이 포함된 CTU 는 더 낮은 QP 를 바탕으로 효율적인 화질을 가져온다. 본 논문에서 제안하는 방법은 VVC 기반으로 한 Rate-Control 보다 주관적 화질이 선명한 것으로 보인다.

Surgical release of elbow contracture is associated with injury to structures traversing the elbow. To date, only one other case report has been published describing anterior interosseous nerve (AIN) palsy that developed immediately after open elbow contracture release and debridement. Here we describe the unique case of a patient that developed AIN palsy 1 week after operation, including magnetic resonance imaging and electrodiagnostic studies, to shed some light on the etiology of this rare complication.

The DVR system supports multiple cameras and should be able to receive images at 30 frames per channel in real time. Thus, The system is using Full-HD-grade Multiplexer and Hardware compression codec. In this paper, Describing the design and implementation for the 4-channel Full-HD-grade PC-based DVR using FPGA and GPU inside CPU without Multiplexer and Hardware codec. The existing DVR system for Full-HD-grade has drawbacks to acquire images of about only 20 frames per channel in real time. The system to acquire images of multiple channel in real time was designed using FPGA. The software for the system was implemented using Intel Media SDK. At the result of performance evaluation, It was satisfied all for the required conditions. The practicality of the system was confirmed as implementation the system without using hardware compression.

In this paper we compare two frequency domain digital watermarking methods for digital Images, namely DCT(Discrete Cosine Transform) based and DFT(Discrete Fourier Transform) based methods. Unlike DCT coefficients, which always have real values, DFT coefficients normally have complex values Therefore, the DFT coefficients have amplitude and phase components Among them, the phase components are known to carry more Important information for the Images. So, we insert the watermark to the phase of the DFT coefficients only This DFT watermarking method is compared with the conventional DCT based watermarking method for the object-based watermarking problem. Experimental results show that the DFT-phase based method IS more robust to general Image processing attacks including resize, lossy compression(JPEG), blurring and median filtering. On the other hand, the DCT based method is more robust to the malicious attack which inserts different watermarks.

An image is partitioned into non-overlapping $8{\times}8$ blocks fer JPEG compression. A scan order converter is placed before the JPEG encoder to provide $8{\times}8$ blocks from the pixels in raster scan order. In general, its architecture requires two line memories for storing eight lines separately to allow the concurrent memory access by both the camera and JPEG processors. Although such architecture is simple to be implemented, it can be inefficient due to too excessive memory requirement as the image resolution increases. However, no deterministic addressing equation has been developed for scan conversion. In this paper, an effective memory addressing algorithm is proposed that can be devised only by adders and subtracters to implement a scan converter based on the single line memory.
