Two user groups, expert and non-expert, are sampled to measure the image quality of G3 facsimile. A ITU-TS tset chart No. 2 has been transmitted among some selected cities and evaluated by user groups. Their subjective evaluation to the image quality is quantified by Mean Opinion Score method. There is highly significant difference in the image quality between expert and non-expert. From modified logit model, it is concluded that there is no significance in two considered factors, the effects of the number of links and transmission time. The derived percent curves show that 80% of non-experts(90% of expert) is considering the image quality of G3 facsimile "fair, good, or excellent".

This paper presents a method for accurate camera self-calibration based on SIFT Feature Detection and image quality assessment. We performed image quality assessment to select high quality images for the camera self-calibration process. We defined high quality images as those that contain little or no blur, and have maximum contrast among images captured within a short period. The image quality assessment includes blur detection and contrast assessment. Blur detection is based on the statistical analysis of energy and standard deviation of high frequency components of the images using Discrete Cosine Transform. Contrast assessment is based on contrast measurement and selection of the high contrast images among some images captured in a short period. Experimental results show little or no distortion in the perspective view of the images. Thus, the suggested method achieves camera self-calibration accuracy of approximately 93%.

Recently, 3D technology based on depth image is widely used in various fields including 3D space recognition, image acquisition, interaction, and games. Depth camera is used in order to produce depth image, various types of effort are made to improve quality of the depth image. In this paper, we suggests using area-based Canny edge detector to improve depth image in applying 3D technology based on depth camera. The suggested method provides improved depth image with pre-processing and post-processing by fixing image quality deterioration, which may take place in acquiring depth image in a limited environment. For objective image quality evaluation, we have confirmed that the image is improved by 0.42dB at maximum, by applying and comparing improved depth image to virtual view reference software. In addition, with DSCQS(Double Stimulus Continuous Quality Scale) evaluation method, we are reassured of the effectiveness of improved depth image through objective evaluation of subjective quality.

Purpose: This study was to investigate the degree of body image, self esteem and quality of life, to identify general and disease of characteristics on influencing this factors with the intention of providing basal data for developing nursing intervention to promote body image, self esteem and quality of life. Method: Subjects of this study were 91 grown-up congenital heart patients over 18 years in 2 tertiary hospitals. The data on body image, self esteem and quality of life were collected through questionnaire from March to April 2004. The data were analyzed by descriptive statistics, t-test, Pearson's correlation, ANOVA and tukey test using SAS for Windows 8.1 program. Result: 1) The mean scores of body image, self esteem and quality of life were 63.01, 25.29 and 496.79. 2) Body image was correlated with age(p=.0239), educational level(p=.0182), diagnosis(p=.0066), number of operation(p=.0148), cyanosis(p<.0001), complication(p=.0096) and NYHA level(p=.0378). 3) Self esteem was correlated with education level(p=.0026), economic level(p=.0240), number of operation(p=.0113) and cyanosis (p=.0006). 4) Quality of life was correlated with age(p=.0432) and diagnosis(p=.0020), number of operation (p=.0063), duration of last operation(p=.0225), cyanosis(p<.0001), complication(p=.0090) and NYHA level(p<.0001). 5) There was significantly positive relationship between body image, self esteem and quality of life. Subjects with more positive body image had higher self esteem(r=.7897, p<.05) and subjects with higher self esteem had higher quality of life(r=.6091, p<.05).
