An inappropriate insertion of a interference device to fix the graft in the tibial tuunel can cause potential complications. We describe a case of 27-year-old man who underwent anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction using IntraFix device(DePuy Mitek, Raynham, MA). In this report we present a case of migration of IntraFix sheath by inappropriate insertion of IntraFix screw along with a review of the current literature.

Recently wireless intra-vehicle communication has received a great interest from the automotive industry and ultra wideband (UWB) technology is considered as one of the potential candidate for this system. Many research works have been done on the measurement and modeling of intra-vehicle communication channel. However, very little work has been reported for the performance analysis of various PHY layer methods under the intra-vehicle communication environment. This paper is to study IEEE 802.15.4a standard in intra-vehicle channel and to evaluate its performance. Channel model in chassis and engine compartment is considered for evaluation. Through simulation BER performance of system with different receiver structures is analyzed.

Face recognition (FR) with a single sample per person (SSPP) is common in real-world face recognition applications. In this scenario, it is hard to predict intra-class variations of query samples by gallery samples due to the lack of sufficient training samples. Inspired by the fact that similar faces have similar intra-class variations, we propose a virtual sample generating algorithm called k nearest neighbors based virtual sample generating (kNNVSG) to enrich intra-class variation information for training samples. Furthermore, in order to use the intra-class variation information of the virtual samples generated by kNNVSG algorithm, we propose image set based multimanifold discriminant learning (ISMMDL) algorithm. For ISMMDL algorithm, it learns a projection matrix for each manifold modeled by the local patches of the images of each class, which aims to minimize the margins of intra-manifold and maximize the margins of inter-manifold simultaneously in low-dimensional feature space. Finally, by comprehensively using kNNVSG and ISMMDL algorithms, we propose k nearest neighbor virtual image set based multimanifold discriminant learning (kNNMMDL) approach for single sample face recognition (SSFR) tasks. Experimental results on AR, Multi-PIE and LFW face datasets demonstrate that our approach has promising abilities for SSFR with expression, illumination and disguise variations.

Purpose: This study was designed to investigate inter-rater and intra-rater reliability of navicular drop measurements by clinicians in sitting and standing positions. Methods: Fourteen subjects with pronated foot were recruited. Two physical therapists randomly assessed the same patients on different occasions but on the same day. Almost all patients were assessed on more than one day. The intra-rater and inter-rater reliability of navicular dropwas estimated by calculation of the intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC). Results: The intra-rater reliability of navicular drop measurements ranged from 0.93 to 0.87, the inter-rater reliability from 0.98 to 0.70 with the patient in standing and sitting positions. These results showed good reliability for calculated variables. Intra-rater and inter-rater reliability of navicular drop in standing position was higher than those of sitting position. Conclusion: Although inter-rater and intra-rater reliability of navicular drop in the sitting position was lower than in the standing position, measurement of navicular drop in the sitting position showed good reliability and was acceptable for patients who could not stand alone without assistance. We recommend that having the patient in the standing position is appropriate in navicular drop measurement.

Purpose: This study analyzed the immediate effects of intra-abdominal pressure with visual feedback on the muscle activation of the upper trapezius and sternomastoid during natural inspiration and forced inspiration in individuals with costal respiration. Methods: The eighteen individuals with upper costal breathing pattern participated in this study. Surface electromyography was used to analyze the muscle activity of the upper trapezius and sternomastoid during natural inspiration and forced inspiration before and after intra-abdominal pressure. Results: A significant difference in muscle activation was observed with the muscle type, inspiration type, and test session (p<0.05). The muscle activities of the sternomastoid and upper trapezius decreased significantly during forced inspiration after intra-abdominal pressure training (p<0.05). On the other hand, there was no significant difference during natural inspiration in both muscles (p>0.05). A comparison of the difference between the pre-test and post-test during forced inspiration revealed the upper trapezius to be significantly larger than the sternomastoid (p<0.05). No significant difference was noted during natural inspiration (p>0.05). Conclusion: The intra-abdominal pressure has positive effects on correcting the breathing patterns in individuals with costal respiration.

Intra-molecular association is an important contribution to the overall hydrogen bonding in surfactant systems, especially in systems of colloidal and biological interest. Amphiphile systems, especially micelle and microemulsion systems, showed highly non-ideal behavior due to the intermolecular association and intra-molecular association. The objective of this research is to present a lattice fluid equation of state that combines the quasi-chemical nonrandom lattice fluid model with modified Veytsman statistics for intra + inter molecular association to calculate phase behavior for mixture containing surfactant systems. The lattice model could describe the literature data well for alkane and surfactant systems.

The modern Electronic Warfare Receivers are required to the current radar technologies like the Low Probability of Intercept(LPI) radars to avoid detection. LPI radars have features of intra-pulse modulation differ from existing radar signals. This features require counterworks such as signal confirmation and identification. Hence this paper presents a study on intra-pulse modulation recognition. The proposed method automatically recognizes intra-pulse modulation types such as LFM and NLFM using classifiers extracted from the features of each intra-pulse modulation. Several simulations are also conducted and the simulation results indicate the performance of the given method.

This paper considers an application of distributed antenna system (DAS) to a system of intra-vehicle wireless energy transfer (WET). The intra-vehicle WET system has features such as limited mobility of energy receiver, static channel environment and short distance between transmitter and human body. Under these conditions, location of transmitter highly affects the amount of energy received by human body and the energy received by energy receiving devices. We compare centralized antenna system (CAS) and the DAS in intra-vehicle WET system by simulation. The results show the DAS has superior performance to the CAS.

The H.264/AVC video coding standard shows extremely higher coding efficiency, but it causes high computational complexity. Especially, the intra mode decision using the rate-distortion method requires many computations. Thus, the efficient intra mode decision methods have been proposed by decreasing the encoding complexity. In this paper, we propose an efficient intra mode decision algorithm using $4{\times}4$ integer transform coefficients in the conversion of MPEG-2 to H.264 standard. It is shown that the proposed algorithm reduces encoding time and complexity compared to the conventional algorithm, while showing similar PSNR performance.

H.264 코딩시 Intra 모드는 다양한 모드 즉, 매크로블록(MB) 당 16개의 $4{\times}4$ 블록 각각에 대한 9가지의 $4{\times}4$ 모드와 4가지의 $16{\times}16$ 모드의 오류 값을 계산하여 최상의 모드를 선택하게 된다. 이와 같은 픽셀 기반의 예측 기법을 DCT 기반의 MPEG-2/H.264 트랜스코더에 적용할 경우 DCT 변환의 특성으로 인하여 모드 예측을 위한 계산량이 높아지는 단점이 있다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위해 MPEG2 DCT를 H.264의 정수형 DCT로 변환한 후, DCT 계수의 특징을 이용하여 Intra 모드를 결정하는 기법을 제안한다. 이때, 계수의 특징이 모호하여 모드를 결정하기 어려운 경우는 몇 가지 모드를 선택하여 오류 값을 계산하여 모드를 결정한다. 현재 정밀한 실험은 진행 중이며, 여러 동영상의 첫 Intra 프레임에 대한 실험을 수행한 결과 MB의 모드 결정의 정확도는 프레임 내 이미지의 특징에 영향을 많이 받았다. 예를 들면 Mobile과 같이 프레임 내의 픽셀 간 에지가 많이 존재하는 프레임은 추가적인 모드 결정을 사용하지 않아도 93%정도의 정확도를 보였으며 Akiyo, Foreman과 같이 이웃한 픽셀간 유사도가 상대적으로 높은 경우는 약 80% 정도의 순수 정확성을 보였다. 그러나 모드 판단이 모호한 경우의 모드도 결정한다면 90%이상의 정확도를 보일 것으로 예상된다. 향후 이미지의 특성에 따라 모드를 결정하는 값을 유동적으로 설정하는 기법을 연구하여 정확도를 높이는 연구를 수행하도록 하겠다.
