Objectives: This is a case report about the effect of Korean medicine on blepharoptosis and ocular motility disorders that occur with thalamus, midbrain, and cerebellum infarctions. Methods: The patient was treated using Korean medicine such as acupuncture, moxibustion, and herbal medicine (Boyanghwano-tang-gamibang). The change of blepharoptosis was evaluated by measurement of palpebral fissure width (PFW), marginal reflex distance-1 (MRD1), and marginal reflex distance-2 (MRD2). The change inocular motility disorders was evaluated by comparison using photographs of the extraocular movements of the patient. We used the Numeric Rating Scale-11 (NRS-11) of diplopia and dizziness to evaluate the effectiveness of treatment. Results: After treatment, blepharoptosis and ocular motility disorders were improved. The NRS-11 score of dizziness decreased from 10 to 7, and diplopia disappeared after Korean medicine treatment. Conclusions: According to this study, Korean medicine can be effective for treating blepharoptosis and ocular motility disorders in thalamus, midbrain, and cerebellum infarctions.

Since a sophisticated location determination technology (LDT) is necessary for accurate positioning in urban area environments, numerous studies related to the LDT using the RFID (Radio Frequency IDentification) technology have been implemented for real-time positioning and data transferring. However, there are still lots of unsolved questions especially regarding what to use as base stations and what are corresponding results under the intrinsic complexity of alignment and configuration of components used for the RFID positioning. This study proposes the street light fixtures as base stations where the RFID receivers will be embedded for the mobile tracking scheme. As street light fixtures are usually installed at a certain distance interval, they can be used as base stations for the RFID receiver installation. Using the principle of the single row triangle network, the RFID receiver organization is determined based on the experiments such as recognition distance measurement and tag position accuracy estimation at inside and outside of the single row triangle network. The results verify that the mobile tracking scheme which uses RFID-embedded street light fixtures, suggested and configured in this study, is effective for the real-time outdoor positioning.

In this paper, an inspection system has been developed where pneumatic instruments are used to stretch the film using compressed air, thus the curl problem can be overcome. When the pneumatic system is applied, a line scan camera should be used instead of an area camera because the COF surface makes an arc by the air pressure. The distance between the COF and the inspection camera should be kept constant to get a clear image, thus the position of COF is to be monitored on real-time. An operating software has been also developed which is switching on/off the pneumatic system, determining the COF position using a camera vision, displaying the contour of the COF side view, sending self-diagnosis result and etc. The developed system has been examined using the actual roll of COF, which convince that the system can be an effective device to inspect the COF rolls in process.

Background We investigate the effect of involutional blepharoptosis (IB) surgery based on dry eye symptoms by analysis using objective and subjective measures. Methods We recorded various parameters from patients that underwent levator advancement surgery for IB, totaling 125 eyes (total 65 patients, 5 unilateral, 60 bilateral). Subjective assessment comprised a questionnaire on dry eye-related quality of life score (DEQS), a summary score calculated from DEQS, and six-grade evaluation, the patient's own measure of eye comfort. Objective assessment comprised marginal-reflex distance-1 (MRD-1), measurement of tear film breakup time, and superficial keratopathy (SPK) existence by slit lamp microscope. Results Subjective assessments showed that IB patients had improvement of dry eye symptoms and eye comfort when surgery increased MRD-1. On the other hand, objective assessments showed that the presence of SPK is suspected when the postoperative MRD-1 level is 3 mm or higher. Conclusion IB surgery must not only increase MRD-1 value, but also to perform maintenance of the appropriate ocular surface condition. From our parameters, we suggest postoperative MRD-1 value should be maintained at < 3 mm to safe and effective of IB surgery.

최근 국내에 확대 설치되고 있는 자동과속단속시스템의 핵심은 주행차량의 지점속도를 측정하는 속도검지부의 정확도라 할 수 있다. 우리나라 속도검지부의 경우 대부분 2중 루프검지기를 이용하여 속도를 측정하고 있는 데 속도측정정확도는 루프검지기의 하드웨어 성능뿐 아니라 루프검지기 발생신호를 처리하는 알고리즘에 상당부분 의존한다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 2중 루프검지기의 속도측정 정확도를 높이기 위한 신호처리 알고리즘을 개발하고 이를 현장에서 평가하였다. 먼저 이론 및 현장실험에서 밝혀진 문제점들을 분석하여 원인별로 개선방향을 분류한 뒤 알고리즘을 개발하였다. 이를 위해서 첫째, 검지기의 2개의 진입시점 신호 뿐 아니라 진출시점 신호까지 포함시켜 정확도를 높이는 2중 처리 알고리즘을 개발하였다. 둘째, 속도측정 오차의 허용범위인 $\pm$5%를 초과하는 원인이 되는 검지영역내 비정상적인 주행궤적차량 즉, 대자선주행과 동시진입차량을 걸러내는 필터링알고리즘을 개발하였다. 현장실험을 통하여 개발 알고리즘의 정확성을 평가한 결과 속도측정정확도가 대폭적으로 개선됨을 확인할 수 있었다. 또한 패각선 주행차량, 동시진입차량 등 검지영역 내에서 비정상적 주행궤적을 발생시켜 심각한 오차를 발생시키는 차량들을 성공적으로 제거할 수 있었다.

본 논문에서는 컴퓨터 비전을 사용하여 6가지 측정값(눌린 단자의 길이, 단자 끝의 치수(폭), 눌린부분(와이어 부분, 코어 부분)의 폭)을 계산하여 와이어 하네스의 결함을 정확하고 빠르게 탐지할 것을 제안한다. 두 가지 유형의 데이터에서 Harris 코너 검출을 활용하여 물체의 위치를 탐지하고 측정 영역별 특징과 배경과 물체 사이의 음영 차이를 활용하여 각 샘플의 기울기를 반영하는 측정값을 추출하기 위한 기준점을 생성한다. 이후 유클리드 거리 방법과 보정 계수를 사용하여 예측값을 계산하는 방법을 통해 와이어의 위치 변화에 관계 없이 측정값을 예측할 수 있다. 각 측정 유형별로 99.1%, 98.7%, 92.6%, 92.5%, 99.9%, 99.7% 정확도를 달성하였으며, 모든 측정값에서 평균 97%의 정확도로 우수한 결과를 얻었다. 해당 검사 방법은 기존 검사 방법인 육안 검사의 문제점을 보완하고, 작은 양의 데이터만을 이용하여 우수한 결과를 도출 가능하다. 또한 이미지 처리만 이용하기 때문에 딥러닝 방법보다 더 적은 데이터와 비용으로 적용 가능할 것으로 기대된다.

Background Elderly patients often have complications of blepharoptosis surgery that can result in the appearance or exacerbation of superficial punctate keratopathy (SPK). However, postoperative changes to SPK status have not been previously reported. We used subjective assessment of symptoms and measurement of SPK scale classification to investigate the safety and efficacy of blepharoptosis surgery in elderly patients. Methods Included in this prospective study were 22 patients (44 eyes) with bilateral blepharoptosis that underwent surgery. Patients comprised 8 males and 14 females with a mean (±standard deviation) age of 75.7 ± 8.2 years (range: 61-89). Blepharoptosis surgery consisted of transcutaneous levator advancement and blepharoplasty including resection of soft tissue (skin, subcutaneous tissue, and the orbicularis oculi muscle). Margin reflex distance-1 (MRD-1) measurement, a questionnaire survey of symptoms and SPK scale classification, was administered preoperatively and 3 months postoperatively for evaluation. Results The median MRD-1 was 1 mm preoperatively and 2.5 mm postoperatively, representing a significant postoperative improvement. SPK area and density scores were found to increase when the MRD-1 increase was more than 2.5 mm with surgery. All 10 items on the questionnaire tended have increased scores after surgery, and significant differences were observed in 7 items (poor visibility, ocular fatigue, heavy eyelid, foreign body sensation, difficulty in focusing, headaches, and stiff shoulders). Conclusion Blepharoptosis surgery was found to be a safe and effective way to maintain the increase in MRD-1 within 2.0 mm. Despite the benefits, surgeons must nonetheless be aware that blepharoptosis surgery is a delicate procedure in elderly people.

심혈관 촬영 시 선량감소를 위해 실무자가 조절 가능한 기하학적 특성을 살펴보고, 각 특성에 따른 유효선량을 비교해 보았다. 인체 모형 팬텀을 이용하여 투시촬영과 영화촬영을 시행하였고, 선량의 측정은 심혈관 장치의 DAP meter를 이용하여 DAP 값을 유효선량으로 환산하였다. 먼저 영화촬영은 투시촬영에 비해 기하학적 특성 전반에 걸쳐서 선량이 약 6-7배 높았다. FPS mode에 따른 선량은 FPS를 낮게 설정할수록 선량이 70%까지 감소하였다. 선관 각도에 따른 선량은 LAO $45^{\circ}$+Caudal $30^{\circ}$이 가장 높게 측정되었고, 조사야 조절장치를 많이 적용할수록 선량은 감소하였다. X-선관과 영상증배관의 거리가 10 cm 멀어질수록 투시촬영과 영화촬영에서 각각 선량이 25-35%까지 증가하였다. FOV가 확대될수록 선량이 1.21-2배 증가하였고, 테이블과 영상증배관 거리가 10cm 멀어질수록 선량은 1.11-1.25배 까지 증가하였다. 따라서 본 연구에서 실험한 기하학적 특성인 FPS mode, 선관 각도, 조준기, 선관과 영상증배관 거리, 테이블과과 영상증배관 거리, FOV 영상 확대 등은 중재적 시술 시 실무자가 수시로 조절 가능한 인자이며, 각 특성에 따라 선량 감소 효과를 기대할 수 있다.

A challenging research issue that has been one of growing importance to those working in human-computer interaction are to endow a machine with an emotional intelligence. Thus, emotion recognition technology plays an important role in the research area of human-computer interaction, and it allows a more natural and more human-like communication between human and computer. In this paper, we propose the multimodal emotion recognition system using face and speech to improve recognition performance. The distance measurement of the face-based emotion recognition is calculated by 2D-PCA of MCS-LBP image and nearest neighbor classifier, and also the likelihood measurement is obtained by Gaussian mixture model algorithm based on pitch and mel-frequency cepstral coefficient features in speech-based emotion recognition. The individual matching scores obtained from face and speech are combined using a weighted-summation operation, and the fused-score is utilized to classify the human emotion. Through experimental results, the proposed method exhibits improved recognition accuracy of about 11.25% to 19.75% when compared to the most uni-modal approach. From these results, we confirmed that the proposed approach achieved a significant performance improvement and the proposed method was very effective.

Among the various welding conditions, the welding current that is inversely proportional to the tip-to-work-piece distance is an essential parameter as to monitor the GMAW process and to implement the welding automation. Considering the weld pool surface geometry including weld defects, it should modify the signal processing method for automatic seam tracking in horizontal fillet welding. To meet the above necessities, a mathematical model related with the weld pool geometry was proposed as in a conjunction with the two-dimensional heat flow analysis of the horizontal fillet welding. The signal processing method based on the artificial neural network (Adaptive Resonance Theory) was proposed for discriminating the sound weld pool surface from that with the weld defects. The reliability of the numerical model and the signal processing method proposed were evaluated through the experiments of which showed that they are effective for predicting the weld bead shape with or without the weld defects in a horizontal fillet welding.
