The effectiveness of Wi-Fi networks is greatly influenced by the optimization of contention window (CW) parameters. Unfortunately, the conventional approach employed by IEEE 802.11 wireless networks is not scalable enough to sustain consistent performance for the increasing number of stations. Yet, it is still the default when accessing channels for single-users of 802.11 transmissions. Recently, there has been a spike in attempts to enhance network performance using a machine learning (ML) technique known as reinforcement learning (RL). Its advantage is interacting with the surrounding environment and making decisions based on its own experience. Deep RL (DRL) uses deep neural networks (DNN) to deal with more complex environments (such as continuous state spaces or actions spaces) and to get optimum rewards. As a result, we present a new approach of CW control mechanism, which is termed as contention window threshold (CW_Threshold). It uses the DRL principle to define the threshold value and learn optimal settings under various network scenarios. We demonstrate our proposed method, known as a smart exponential-threshold-linear backoff algorithm with a deep Q-learning network (SETL-DQN). The simulation results show that our proposed SETL-DQN algorithm can effectively improve the throughput and reduce the collision rates.

심장혈관 조영술과 인터벤션은 현대 성인병의 증가로 급격히 증가하고 있다. 심장혈관 인터벤션은 장시간 동일 부위에 방사선을 조사하는 검사로 방사선으로 인한 피부상해를 일으킬 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 의료기관의 심장혈관 인터벤션의 진단참조준위를 조사하여 환자의 피폭선량을 감소시키는 도구로 사용하고자 한다. 본 연구는 147명의 환자에서 심장혈관 조영술과 인터벤션을 대상으로 누적 투시시간, 누적 투시면적선량, 영상촬영을 위한 면적선량, 누적 면적선량, 공기커마, 동영상 수, 총 영상 수에 대한 정보를 획득하여 진단참조준위를 설정하였다. 심장혈관 조영술의 진단참조준위와 인터벤션의 진단참조준위에 해당하는 면적선량 값은 각각 $44.4 Gy{\cdot}cm2$와 $298.6Gy{\cdot}cm2$로 나타났고 투시시간에 대한 진단참조준위는 각각 191.5 sec와 1935.3 sec로 나타났다. 진단참조준위는 반드시 넘으면 안 되는 값은 아니다. 하지만 진단참조준위를 제정하여 의료 기관에서 사용하고 있는 선량의 참조 값을 설정하고 이를 검토하는 과정은 환자의 불필요한 피폭선량을 감소시키는데 기여할 것이다.

This study introduces a deep reinforcement learning (DRL)-based methodology for optimizing apartment space arrangements, addressing the limitations of human capability in evaluating all potential spatial configurations. Leveraging computational power, the methodology facilitates the autonomous exploration and evaluation of innovative layout options, considering architectural principles, legal standards, and client re-quirements. Through comprehensive simulation tests across various apartment types, the research demonstrates the DRL approach's effec-tiveness in generating efficient spatial arrangements that align with current design trends and meet predefined performance objectives. The comparative analysis of AI-generated layouts with those designed by professionals validates the methodology's applicability and potential in enhancing architectural design practices by offering novel, optimized spatial configuration solutions.

This round of tests in patients with UGI and Esophagography data collected by national and international reference levels based on the original set of guidelines and fluoroscopy, through the provision of medical radiation exposure reduction and further optimization of Defense to realize that is intended. 359 names in our hospital underwent Esophagography 302 patients who underwent UGI average fluoroscopy time and number of images to calculate the average 21 cm Acryl phantom dose for 10 seconds and 20 seconds, average area dose and the area dose of 1 spot image, 5 spot consecutive images by measuring the patient dose and third quartile of the mean area dose was set seonryangin reference dose. Esophagography average patient dose was set to 30.05 $Gy{\cdot}cm^2$, DRL was set at a 25.37 $Gy{\cdot}cm^2$. Average dose of UGI patients were selected as 45.33 $Gy{\cdot}cm^2$, DRL was set at a 34 $Gy{\cdot}cm^2$. UGI patients with established average dose recommended in the 2008 national recommendation from the UGI examination with a dose of less than 49.7 $Gy{\cdot}cm^2$ seonryangin is evaluated. This Note examines the dose of self-aware through education recognizes the importance of dose reduction and examine if their efforts and further reduce patient dose could achieve optimization of the medical exposure is considered.

Diagnostic reference level (DRL) is employed to optimize the radiation doses of patients. The objective of this study is to review the DRLs for interventional procedures in Korea and abroad. Literature review was performed to investigate radiation dose index and measurement methodology commonly used in DRL determination. Dose area product (DAP) and fluoroscopy time within each major procedure category were systematically abstracted and analyzed. A wide variation was found in the radiation dose. The DAP values and fluoroscopy times ranged 0.01-3,081 Gy·㎠ and 2-16,878 seconds for all the interventional procedures, 8.5-1,679 Gy·㎠ and 32-5,775 seconds for the transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE), and 0.1-686 Gy·㎠ and 16-6,636 seconds for the transfemoral cerebral angiography (TFCA), respectively. The DRL values of the DAP and fluoroscopy time were 238 Gy·㎠ and 1,224 seconds for the TACE and 189 Gy·㎠ and 686 seconds for the TFCA, respectively. Generally, the DRLs of Korea were lower than those of other developed countries, except for the percutaneous transluminal angioplasty with stent in arteries of the lower extremity (LE PTA and stent), aneurysm coil embolization, and Hickman insertion procedures. The wide variation in the radiation doses of the different procedures suggests that more attention must be paid to reduce unnecessary radiation exposure from medical imaging. Furthermore, periodic nationwide survey of medical radiation exposures is necessary to optimize the patient dose for radiation protection, which will ultimately contribute to patient dose reduction and radiological safety.

Far reducing medical radiation exposure and managing patient doses, Entrance surface doses(ESDs) were measured at Diagnostic Radiology Department in ASAN medical center, also we determined and compared with the Diagnostic Reference Level(DRL) of some other countries. ESDs were measured far the most common types of X-ray procedures, such as chest PA, lumbar spine AP, lumbar spine lateral, Pelvis AP, Skull PA. ESDs were measured by Glass dosimeter and Unfors Xi meter. Those were applied collimation center of phantom's entrance skin surface. The results of ESDs were compared Glass dosimeter with Unfors Xi meter. Those were measured within 5% statistical difference. It seemed well agreement at two devices. In most cases ESDs measured far the different types of X ray procedures were found to be lower than the DRL of IAEA, but ESDs on chest PA, lumbar spine AP, lumbar spine lateral, Pelvis AP, Skull PA were proximity ar excesses at DRL of advanced country. Through this study, we need an investigation and improvement at present diagnostic radiology exam system. Also, radiologists make an effort to reduce patient dose and having a technical skill.

국민의 의료수준 향상으로 CT 검사건수는 매년 증가되고 있는 추세이며, 이에 따라 연간 의료 방사선에 의한 피폭선량 또한 증가되고 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 CT 부위별 검사 시 노출되는 인체의 유효선량을 평가하고, 이로 인한 생애 암 귀속 위험도를 추정하고자 한다. 첫 번째로, CT 진단참고수준 가이드라인에서 제시하는 부위 중 5가지를 선정하였으며, CT 장치를 통해 각 검사 부위별로 노출되는 인체의 유효선량을 평가하였다. 두 번째로, 동일한 조건 내 ALARA-CT 프로그램을 이용하여 인체 장기 및 유효선량을 산정하였으며, 국내 DRL 수준과 비교하여 검사 프로토콜에 대한 적정성을 평가하였다. 세 번째로, CT 검사 시 노출되는 유효선량에 의한 생애 암 귀속 위험도(LAR)을 추정하였다. 그 결과, 검사 중 복부 다중시기 검사 시 21.18 mSv로 가장 높은 유효선량을 나타내었으며, 복부검사를 제외한 나머지 검사에서는 DRL 이하의 선량수준을 나타내었다. 동일한 조건 내 선량계산 프로그램을 이용한 유효선량 평가 결과, 각 검사별로 약 1.1 ~ 1.9배 이상 높은 결과를 나타내었으며, 장기선량의 경우 검사 부위에 근접한 장기일수록 산란선에 의해 높은 영향을 나타내었다. CT 검사 시 성인의 생애 암 귀속 위험도의 경우, 연령이 증가함에 따라 점차적으로 감소되는 양상을 보였으며, 성별에 따라 다소 상이한 결과를 나타내었다.

아조색소를 함유하는 폴리머필름은 Photonics분야에서 그 응용가능성 때문에 집중적인 연구의 대상이 되었다. 부피폴리머필름에서의 아조벤젠유도체의 trans-cis isomerization은 편광홀로그램, optical channel waveguide, reversable optical memory에서 이용되었다. 특히 최근에는 DRl／PMMA의 비공명영역에서 부피홀로그램에서 고회절효율과 Degenerate Four Wave Mixing에서 높은 반사율을 얻어내는 보고가 있었다. (중략)
