  • The object detection is essential for identifying objects, location information, and user context-aware in the image. In this paper, we propose a robust object detection system. The System linearly transforms learning data obtained from the background images to Principal components. It organizes the Eigen-background with the selected Principal components which are able to discriminate between foreground and background. The Fuzzy-C-means (FCM) carries out clustering for images with inputs from the Eigen-background information and classifies them into objects and backgrounds. It used various patterns of backgrounds as learning data in order to implement a system applicable even to the changing environments, Our system was able to effectively detect partial movements of a human body, as well as to discriminate between objects and backgrounds removing noises and shadows without anyone frame image for fixed background.

  • Purpose The emergence of mobile applications has simplified our life in various ways. Regarding tourism activities, mobile applications are already efficient in providing personalized tourism related information and are very much effective in booking hotels, flights, etc. However, there are very few studies on classifying the actual service requirements and improving the customer satisfaction in mobile tourism applications. The purpose of this study is to implement a practical mobile tourism application. To serve the purpose, we classify and categorize the service requirement of mobile tourism applications in Korea. We employed Kano model and analytic hierarchy process (AHP). Specifically, we conducted a focus group study to find out the service requirements in mobile tourism applications. Design/methodology/approach The data for this study were collected from Koreans and Foreigners who has the experience using mobile tourism applications. Participants needed to be familiar with mobile tourism applications because such users may be more aware of the mobile tourism applications services. We analyzed 147 valid data using Kano model and conducted AHP analysis on five experts in the field of tourism using Expert Choice software. Findings In this paper, we identified the 17 service quality requirements in the mobile tourism applications. The results reveal that the service requirement such as Geo-location map, Multilingual option, Compatibility with different operating systems were unavoidable service, absent of such requirements leads to the dissatisfaction. Based on the results of the integrated application of both Kano model and AHP analysis, this study provide specific implications for improving the service quality of the mobile tourism applications in Korea.

  • Variety of smart devices including smart phone have become and essential item in user's daily life. This means that smart devices are good mediators to get collecting user's behavior by sensors mounted on the devices. The information from smart devices is important clues to identify by analyzing the user's preferences and needs. Through this, the intelligent service which is fitted to the user is possible. This paper propose a smart service recommendation model based on user scenario using fusion context-awareness. The information for recommendation services is collected to make the scenario depending on time, location, action based on the Fusion process. The scenarios can help predict a user's situation and provide the services in advance. Also, content categories as well as the content types are determined depending on the scenario. The scenario is a method for providing the best service as well as a basis for the user's situation. Using this method, proposing a smart service model with the fusion context-awareness based on the hybrid sensing is the goal of this paper.

  • Recent applications on continuous queries on moving objects are extended quickly to various parts. These applications need not only 2-dimensional space data but also high-dimensional space data. If we use previous index for overlapped continuous range queries on high-dimensional space data, as the number of continuous range queries on a large number of moving objects becomes larger, their performance degrades significantly. We focus on stationary queries, non-exponential increase of storage cost and efficient processing time for large data sets. In this paper, to solve these problems, we present a novel query indexing method, denoted as PAB(Projected Attribute Bit)-based query index. We transfer information of high-dimensional continuous range query on each axis into one-dimensional bit lists by projecting technique. Also proposed query index supports incremental update for efficient query processing. Through various experiments, we show that our method outperforms the CES(containment-encoded squares)-based indexing method which is one of the most recent research.

  • Spinoglenoid cyst have been reported in small series in the orthopaedic literature in association with SLAP lesion, which is one of less common causes of shoulder pain. Authors experienced one case of spinoglenoid cyst with SLAP lesion initially missed with ultrasonographic examination and physical examination. This case was confirmed by MRI, EMG and arthroscopic surgery was done. When clinicians cannot find a definite cause of shoulder pain and decreased power of rotator cuff tendon with ultrasonographic examination, they need further study such as MRI and EMG with careful physical examination. Clinicians need to aware of the limitation of ultrasonography for spinoglenoid cyst especially, (1) cyst size is small, (2) location of cyst is too deep to detect and along the scapula spine from SLAP lesion.

  • Background Liposuction is a procedure to reduce the volume of subcutaneous fat by physical force. Intracellular storage fat is composed of triglyceride, whereas circulating fat particles exist as cholesterol or triglycerol bound to carrier proteins. It is unavoidable that the storage form of fat particles enters the circulation system after these particles are physiologically destroyed. To date, however, no studies have clarified the fatal characteristics of fat embolism that occurs after the subclinical phase of free fat particles. Methods A mixture of human lipoaspirate and normal saline (1:100, 0.2 mL) was injected into the external jugular vein of rats, weighing 200 g on average. Biopsy specimens of the lung and kidney were examined at 12-hour intervals until postoperative 72 hours. The deposit location and transport of the injected free fat particles were confirmed histologically by an Oil Red O stain. Results Inconsistent with previous reports, free fat particles were transported from the intravascular space to the parenchyma. At 24 hours after infusion, free fat particles deposited in the vascular lumen were confirmed on the Oil Red O stain. At 72 hours after infusion, free fat particles were accumulated compactly within the parenchymal space near the perivascular area. Conclusions Many surgeons are aware of the fatal results and undiscovered pathophysiologic mechanisms of free fat particles. Our results indicate that free fat particles, the storage form of fat that has been degraded through a physiological process, might be removed through a direct transport mechanism and phagocytotic uptake.

  • Thalamic pain is a primary cause of central post-stroke pain (CPSP). Clinical symptoms vary depending on the location of the infarction and frequently accompany several pain symptoms. Therefore, correct diagnosis and proper examination are not easy. We report a case of CPSP due to a left acute thalamic infarction with central disc protrusion at C5-6. A 45-year-old-male patient experiencing a tingling sensation in his right arm was referred to our pain clinic under the diagnosis of cervical disc herniation. This patient also complained of right cramp-like abdominal pain. After further evaluations, he was diagnosed with an acute thalamic infarction. Therefore detailed history taking should be performed and examiners should always be aware of other symptoms that could suggest a more dangerous disease.

  • In the present paper, the raison d'$\^{e}$tre of geography and geography education in the humanities are explained. Geography was not considered as ontology notion and geography was also not aware of regarding ontology. However, human being is the geographic existence. People occupy the space they live in and reveal their own existence by virtue of the space. In geography, we understand human existence by concrete things consisting of the space. Geography can explain the necessity for the space of origin where human being had lost and open a gate to find their own existence through it. Geography education can find the justification as to why we should teach it in 'now here'. We can make a bright future in geography education in terms of critical reflection at the ontological dimension. Geography and geography education have clear reason to exist in right here. That begins from the question of what relationship between human and space is and completes the raison d'$\^{e}$tre based on the answer.

  • Purpose: To evaluate whether cone beam computed tomography can depict the distribution, position, frequency, relative vertical dimension, and the diameter of the lingual foramen and direction of lingual bone canal. Materials and Methods : Cone beam computed tomography of mandible was performed on 25 males and 25 females with no history of any orthodontic treatments or any other dental surgeries. A statistical comparison was done on the mean values of males and females. Results: In the location and distribution of lingual foramina, median lingual foramen was found in all subjects and lateral lingual foramen in 58%. In the lateral lingual foramen, bilateral type was found in 28% and unilateral type in 30%. In the number of lingual foramina, median lingual foramen had two foramina and lateral lingual foramen had one foramen, mostly. In the relative mean vertical dimension of lingual foramina, median lingual foramen was 0.03±0.08, and both lateral lingual foramina was 0.20±0.04. The mean diameter of lingual foramina, median lingual foramen was 0.9mm±0.28, right lateral lingual foramen was 0.92mm±0.23, and left lateral lingual foramen was 0.88mm±0.27. The most frequent direction of the lingual bone canals, median lingual bone canal proceeded in anteroinferior direction and lateral lingual bone canal in anterosuperolateral direction. Conclusion : Cone beam computed tomography can be helpful for surgery and implantation on the mandibular area. Radiologist should be aware of this anatomical feature and its possible implications.
