In this paper, an easy-to-use measurement device for illumination distribution is developed. The device consists of a sensor array module, a control module, and a PC interface. The sensor array module incorporates CIE 1931 color sensors and the ARM-based 96 MHz microcontroller in the control module for measurement and data processing. The sensor array module contains 64 color sensors arranged in a $16{\times}4$ array. The sensitivity of the sensor array module can be adjusted depending on the illumination level to be measured. The measurement data and control signals are exchanged via USB 2.0 standard. To demonstrate the performance of the device, the illumination distribution is measured for colors of red, green, and blue and is graphically shown. The device can be used for measurement of the illumination distribution, design and adjustment of LED illumination.

This paper proposes sliding mode control (SMC) method for improvement of dynamic response for IPMSM based on DTC with constant switching frequency. DTC with constant switching frequency method consists of PI torque controller and triangular comparator for constant torque error status. It has the poor dynamic response compared to conventional DTC. This paper proposes improvement method of dynamic response of DTC with constant switching frequency by using SMC. Simulation results confirm the effectiveness of the proposed method.

Recently, much of the intelligent security scenario and criminal investigation demands for matching photo and non-photo. Existing face recognition system can not sufficiently guarantee these needs. In this paper, we propose an algorithm to improve the performance of heterogeneous face recognition systems by reducing the different modality between sketches and photos of the same person. The proposed algorithm extracts each image's texture features through texture descriptors (gray level co-occurrence matrix, multiscale local binary pattern), and based on this, generates a transformation matrix through eigenfeature regularization and extraction techniques. The score value calculated between the vectors generated in this way finally recognizes the identity of the sketch image through the score normalization methods.

Objectives To assess the effectiveness of Chuna manual therapy in patients with Tourette's syndrome. Methods We queried nine electronic databases using the keywords "Tourette's Syndrome" and "tuina OR chuna" to identify RCTs that investigated the effectiveness of Chuna manual therapy in patients with Tourette's syndrome. Results Thirteen RCTs were selected according to the inclusion criteria. A systematic review showed that Chuna manual therapy can have a curative effect on patients with Tourette's syndrome. Conclusions In this study, 13 RCTs reported that Chuna manual therapy was effective for Tourette's syndrome. These findings provide a basis for its clinical use. However, all studies involved populations belonging to the same country. Many studies lacked details of the research methodology. Therefore, further studies are required to produce high-quality evidence.

Objectives To evaluate the effectiveness of Chuna manual therapy (CMT) for postpartum hypogalactia. Methods Using nine electronic databases, we selected 13 randomized controlled trials (RCTs) that applied CMT for postpartum hypogalactia and conducted a meta-analysis. The risk of bias was assessed using the Cochrane risk of bias tool. Results Meta-analysis showed statistically significant results for CMT in terms of effective rate and breast filling degree compared to the other treatment groups (p<0.05). Conclusions Our study showed clinical evidence of CMT efficacy for postpartum hypogalactia. Further studies are required to support our findings.

Emphysema is a chronic obstructive lung disease characterized by inflammation and enlargement of the air spaces. Regorafenib, a potential senomorphic drug, exhibited a therapeutic effect in porcine pancreatic elastase (PPE)-induced emphysema in mice. In the current study we examined the preventive role of regorafenib in development of emphysema. Lung function tests and morphometry showed that oral administration of regorafenib (5 mg/kg/day) for seven days after instillation of PPE resulted in attenuation of emphysema. Mechanistically, regorafenib reduced the recruitment of inflammatory cells, particularly macrophages and neutrophils, in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid. In agreement with these findings, measurements using a cytokine array and ELISA showed that expression of inflammatory mediators including interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-6, and CXCL1/KC, and tissue inhibitor of matrix metalloprotease-1 (TIMP-1), was downregulated. The results of immunohistochemical analysis confirmed that expression of IL-6, CXCL1/KC, and TIMP-1 was reduced in the lung parenchyma. Collectively, the results support the preventive role of regorafenib in development of emphysema in mice and provide mechanistic insights into prevention strategies.

This paper presents the control strategy of Auto-leveling equipment (ALE) of Multi-function radar (MFR) for vehicle using Embedded System. MFR implements surveillance patrol missions such as surface-to-air missiles and fighters with constant rotation. ALE consists of 4 Auto-leveling modules (ALM) and retains the stability with maintaining level. The gradient of vehicle can be measured and controlled by embedded systems. This paper contributes for improvement the system design with the ALM 1 set modeling. The validity of the modeling is verified using MATLAB/Simulink.

Titanium alloy for bio-medical applications have been developed to reduce the toxicity of alloying elements and avoid the stress-shielding effect which is caused by relatively high elastic modulus compared to bone. Ti-39Nb-6Zr (TNZ40) alloy of elastic modulus exhibits around 40 GPa in the case of beta single phase. However, the strength of this alloy is lower than the other types of titanium alloys. Many research found that adding oxygen to beta-titanium alloys is beneficial for improving the strength through solid solution strengthening. In this study, TNZ40 ingots with addition of O were prepared by an arc remelting process (Ti-39Nb-6Zr-0.16O (wt.%), Ti-39Nb-6Zr-0.26O (wt.%)). Thermo-mechanical processing (i.e., heat treatment, cold swaging and aging heat treatment) has been performed under various conditions. Therefore, the aim of this study is to investigate the effect of oxygen content and ω phase formation on microstructure and mechanical properties.

본 논문에서는 OCR기술을 이용하여 나만의 소비패턴을 분석하는 어플을 제안한다. 현재 카드와 간편결제를 많이 쓰는 시대, 사람들은 소비 패턴을 쉽게 분석하고 알 수 없기 때문에 절약과 저축도 쉽게 못하고 있다. 따라서 OCR을 활용한 영수증 인식으로 소비 패턴을 분석하고 나의 소비 생활을 쉽게 알 수 있는 서비스를 통해 소비 문제가 개선될 것이라고 생각한다. 가계부의 핵심 기능은 수입/지출을 표기하는 것이다. 하지만 현재 상용 중인 소비 앱은 너무 많은 기능을 도입해 오히려 사용성이 떨어진다. 이를 해결하기 위해 복잡한 서비스는 빼고, 핵심 기능과 OCR 기능, 예산 관리, 포인트 제도, 카테고리별 지출 관리를 넣었다. 프로젝트의 대상은 평소 과도한 지출을 하는 사람과 자신의 소비를 기록하고 싶은 사람이며, 본 시스템에서 OCR을 이용해 소비시 발생하는 영수증을 인식하여 더욱 편리하게 입력할 수 있다. 또한, 비 계획적인 소비를 효율적으로 해결할 수 있으며, 포인트 제도를 이용해 사용자의 출석률 문제를 효율적으로 해결할 것으로 기대된다.
