본 논문은 손등의 정맥패턴을 이용한 개인식별을 위해 개발된 3가지의 알고리즘에 관해 각각의 성능을 비교한 결과를 제시한다. 세가지 방법은 각각 Unsharp Masking을 이용한 이치화 후 정맥과 손등 배경의 면적을 이용한 가중치를 적용한 원형정합 알고리즘[1]과 Kolmogorov Smirnov(KS) statistic[2]을 이용한 매칭 알고리즘을 개선한 방식, 그리고 정맥의 세선화 처리 후 분기점의 좌표, 정맥의 길이, 정맥 가지 사이의 분기각도 등의 특징벡터를 이용한 방법 등이다. 본 연구에서는 전처리 과정에 있어서, 원시영상의 혈관부위와 배경부위의 gray scale 분포가 겹친 상태에서 Unsharp Masking 필터링을 적용한 결과가 기타 다른 전처리 방식보다 우수하게 영상을 강화시킬 수 있음을 확인하였고, 가중치를 이용한 매칭방식이 다른 매칭방식보다 우수함을 확인하였다.

The motion of small heavy particles in homogeneous isotropic turbulence in the present of gravity is investigated using Direct Numerical Simulations (DNS) at moderate Reynolds number. The Lagrangian velocity and acceleration statistics of particles and of flow for a wide range of Stokes number, defined as the ratio of the particle response time to Kolmogorov time scale of turbulence, were obtained for the direction of the gravity and normal direction, respectively. It is found that particles lose their correction faster than the case without gravity. Then, a significant increase in the average settling velocity was observed for a certain range of Stokes number. Our focus is placed on gravitational effect on very small particles. Our simulations show that as the Stokes number reduces to zero, their mean settling velocity approaches the terminal velocity in still fluid.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of a structured preoperative instruction upon anxiety and postoperative self-care compliance. Methods: A randomized control group pre-post design was used. Sixty subjects undergoing cataract surgery were randomly assigned to one of two groups. The instruction consisted of cataract surgery procedure, sensory information, deep breathing, use of eye drop, and post op self-care regimen and was provided to the experimental group with control group receiving an usual treatment. State anxiety NRS, pulse, BP, and self-care compliance scale developed by Cho & Rho were used. Data were collected at two time periods: on the day of surgery in the clinic and prior to anesthesia in the operating room. The postoperative self-care compliance scores were measured at their second visits to the hospital after surgery. Data were analyzed using Kolmogorov Smirnov test, t-test, and Mann-Whitney U test. Results: There were significant differences between the two groups in the postoperative state anxiety (t=-3.57, p=.001) and the postoperative self-care compliance score (t=3.92, p<.001). There were no significant difference between the two groups in the postoperative blood pressure and pulse rate. Conclusion: The results of this study suggest that the structured preoperative instruction could be a nursing intervention for cataract surgery patients.

Magnetic fields are an important ingredient of galaxy clusters and are indirectly observed on cluster scales as radio haloes and radio relics. One promising method to shed light on the properties of cluster wide magnetic fields is the analysis of Faraday rotation maps of extended extragalactic radio sources. We developed a Fourier analysis for such Faraday rotation maps in order to determine the magnetic power spectra of cluster fields. In an advanced step, here we apply a Bayesian maximum likelihood method to the RM map of the north lobe of Hydra A on the basis of our Fourier analysis and derive the power spectrum of the cluster magnetic field. For Hydra A, we measure a spectral index of -5/3 over at least one order of magnitude implying Kolmogorov type turbulence. We find a dominant scale of about 3 kpc on which the magnetic power is concentrated, since the magnetic autocorrelation length is ${\lambda}_B = 3 {\pm} 0.5\;kpc$. Furthermore, we investigate the influences of the assumption about the sampling volume (described by a window function) on the magnetic power spectrum. The central magnetic field strength was determined to be ${\~}7{\pm}2{\mu}G$ for the most likely geometries.

This study was intended to examine the failure characteristics and breakdowns of the head-fed type combines generally used on farms. The failure distribution was assumed to follow Weibull distribution function and the Weibull parameters of the major parts, units and combine as whole were estimated by using the data collected in a survey. A computer program for the estimation of the Weibull parameter was developed. Monte Carlo method was used in predicting the time between failures. The results of study may be summarized as follows: 1. The number of failures per combine was 4.83 times per year and 0.3 times per hectare of combines of different ages. 2. According to the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test method, it was proved that the Weibull distribution function is well fitted to the characteristics of the failure and breakdowns of combines. 3. Weibull parameters of failure distribution of the combine as a whole were estimated to give the shape parameter ${\beta}$=1.3089 and the scale parameter ${\alpha}$=105.2409. The combining area with 80% reliability was 1.1 ha, and the probability of operating the combine without any failure for a year, was $2.76{\times}10^{-4}$. 4. The mean time between failures (MTBF) of the combines was predicted to be 3.2 ha of operation, which corresponds to 32 hours of operation.

Homogeneous and isotropic turbulence (HIT) with no mean flow is a very useful type of flow for basic turbulence research. However, it is difficult to generate HIT in the lab. In this study, we implemented HIT in a confined box through synthetic jet actuators using sub-woofer speakers. Characteristics of HIT are varied depending on the strength of the jets. We used 2D PIV to measure the velocity field. Turbulence statistics such as homogeneity, isotropy ratio, turbulence kinetic energy, dissipation rate, Taylor microscale, Kolmogorov scale, and velocity correlation coefficient were calculated. Most of the turbulence statistics increased exponentially according to the strength of the jets, and the Taylor Reynolds number reached up to 185.

두 표본 집단이 동일한 분포를 따르는지 비교하기 위해 분포무관 검정이 많이 사용된다. 하지만 여러 검정법을 체계적으로 비교한 연구가 존재하지 않아서 각 검정법의 특성을 고려하여 연구 상황에 맞는 검정법을 선택하기가 어려웠다. 본 연구에서는 이표본 분포 동일성 검정에 해당하는 여러 분포무관 검정법들을 소개하고 체계적인 모의실험을 통해 그 성능을 비교하고자 한다. 두 표본이 각각 (1) 위치, (2) 척도, (3) 왜도, (4) 첨도, (5) 꼬리가중치가 다른 분포에서 추출된 상황에 대해 실험하였다. 실험 결과를 바탕으로 이표본 분포 동일성 검정법 사용에 대한 실용적인 지침을 제시하려고 한다.

기존의 입자추적모델에서 입자의 연직방향 변위 예측은 정지 수체에서의 최종침강속도를 바탕으로 계산되었다. 그러나 난류 수체에서의 침강속도에 관한 선행 연구들은 난류가 입자의 침강속도에 영향을 미치는 것으로 보고하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 난류에 따른 침강속도의 변화 특성을 규명하고자 개수로 흐름에서 입자의 침강 실험을 수행하였다. 입자의 침강속도와 난류 특성은 각각 PTV, PIV 기법을 통해 측정하였고, 측정된 침강속도 증가율과 입자 및 난류 특성에 따른 난류 수체에서의 침강속도의 변화 특성을 분석하였다. 그 결과, 입자 직경이 Kolmogorov 길이 스케일의 1~2배가 될 때, 침강속도 증가율이 커지기 시작하였다. 본 실험 결과를 선행 연구들과 비교하였을 때, Stokes 수와 침강속도 증가율의 그래프가 입자의 밀도에 따라 각각 최댓값을 보이는 곡선 형태를 가지는 것으로 나타났다. 결론적으로, 입자의 침강속도는 개수로 흐름에서 정지 수체에서보다 빠르기 때문에, 기존의 정지 수체에서의 침강속도를 이용한 입자추적모델은 연직방향으로 바닥에 도달하는 시간을 과대산정하게 될 수 있다. 이러한 측면에서 본 연구의 결과는 입자추적모델의 성능 개선에 도움을 줄 것으로 기대된다.

Weibull distribution with two parameters, shape (k) and scale (s) parameters are used to model the fatigue failure analysis due to periodic vortex shedding of the synovial fluid in knee joints. In order to determine the later parameter, a suitable statistical model is required for velocity distribution of synovial fluid flow. Hence, wide applicability of Weibull distribution in life testing and reliability analysis can be applied to describe the probability distribution of synovial fluid flow velocity. In this work, comparisons of three most widely used methods for estimating Weibull parameters are carried out; i.e. the least square estimation method (LSEM), maximum likelihood estimator (MLE) and the method of moment (MOM), to study fatigue failure of bone joint due to periodic vortex shedding of synovial fluid. The performances of these methods are compared through the analysis of computer generated synovial fluidflow velocity distribution in the physiological range. Significant values for the (k) and (s) parameters are obtained by comparing these methods. The criterions such as root mean square error (RMSE), coefficient of determination ($R^2$), maximum error between the cumulative distribution functions (CDFs) or Kolmogorov-Smirnov (K-S) and the chi square tests are used for the comparison of the suitability of these methods. The results show that maximum likelihood method performs well for most of the cases studied and hence recommended.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of a lower extremity exercise program on muscle strength and flexibility in women with knee osteoarthritis. Method: This study was conducted using a non-equivalent control group pretest-posttest design. The participants were 35 women with knee osteoarthritis. The experimental group performed the lower extremity exercise program, which was an adapted BeHaS exercise program developed by Kim(2006). It consisted of approximately 65-130 minutes per one session, two days a week, for twelve weeks. Lower extremity muscle strength was measured by the Seated Leg Press Machine (TY-H2217, made in Korea), back muscle strength by back muscle strength scale (TKK 5402, made in Japan) and flexibility, by Sit and Reach tester (01285, U.S.A). Data were gathered from September 2005 to March 2006. Frequency, $X^2$ test and t-test were used to analyze the data. SPSS Win 11.0 was used to assist analysis. For normal distribution of data, Kolmogorov-Smirnov test was done. Results: There were statistical differences in the mean strength of both legs together, strength in leg with more pain(p=.044; p=.046), sit and standing time (p=.007), and back strength (p=.021). Conclusion: Based on these results, it can be concluded that a lower extremity exercise program can help improve lower extremity muscle strength in women with osteoarthritis.
