Electroglottography (EGG) is a technique used to register laryngeal behavior indirectly by a measuring the change in electrical impedance across the throat during speaking. However, EGG waveform is affected by laryngeal muscles which fluctuate the vocal cords, and which result in baseline wander. It is required to reduce baseline wander in EGG waveform, because EGG waveform is used for input signal of nonlinear speech synthesizer in next chapter. In vocal cords, the abduction-adduction of glottis is mainly controlled by the posterior cricoarytenoid (abductor) and interarytenoid (adductor) muscles respectively. Empirical Mode Decomposition method was adopted in cancellation of EGG waveform baseline wandering, and showd better performance than that of high pass filter with 500 order.

The paper presents a Bayesian Finite element (FE) model updating methodology by utilizing modal data. The dynamic condensation technique is adopted in this work to reduce the full system model to a smaller model version such that the degrees of freedom (DOFs) in the reduced model correspond to the observed DOFs, which facilitates the model updating procedure without any mode-matching. The present work considers both the MPV and the covariance matrix of the modal parameters as the modal data. Besides, the modal data identified from multiple setups is considered for the model updating procedure, keeping in view of the realistic scenario of inability of limited number of sensors to measure the response of all the interested DOFs of a large structure. A relationship is established between the modal data and structural parameters based on the eigensystem equation through the introduction of additional uncertain parameters in the form of modal frequencies and partial mode shapes. A novel sampling strategy known as the Metropolis-within-Gibbs (MWG) sampler is proposed to sample from the posterior Probability Density Function (PDF). The effectiveness of the proposed approach is demonstrated by considering both simulated and experimental examples.

Recently, during the multi-level fusion with pedicle screws, interspinous spacer are sometimes substituted for the most superior level of the fusion in an attempt to reduce the number of fusion level and likelihood of degeneration process at the adjacent level. In this study, a finite element (FE) study was performed to assess biomechanical efficacies of the interspinous spacer combined with posterior lumbar fusion with a previously-validated 3-dimensional FE model of the intact lumbar spine (L1-S1). The post-operative models were made by modifying the intact model to simulate the implantation of interspinous spacer and pedicle screws at the L3-4 and L4-5. Four different configurations of the post-op model were considered: (1) a normal spinal model; (2) Type 1, one-level fusion using posterior pedicle screws at the L4-5; (3) Type 2, two-level (L3-5) fusion; (4) Type 3, Type 1 plus Coflex$^{TM}$ at the L3-4. hybrid protocol (intact: 10 Nm) with a compressive follower load of 400N were used to flex, extend, axially rotate and laterally bend the FE model. As compared to the intact model, Type 2 showed the greatest increase in Range of motion (ROM) at the adjacent level (L2-3), followed Type 3, and Type 1 depending on the loading type. At L3-4, ROM of Type 2 was reduced by 34~56% regardless of loading mode, as compared to decrease of 55% in Type 3 only in extension. In case of normal bone strength model (Type 3_Normal), PVMS at the process and the pedicle remained less than 20% of their yield strengths regardless of loading, except in extension (about 35%). However, for the osteoporotic model (Type 3_Osteoporotic), it reached up to 56% in extension indicating increased susceptibility to fracture. This study suggested that substitution of the superior level fusion with the interspinous spacer in multi-level fusion may be able to offer similar biomechanical outcome and stability while reducing likelihood of adjacent level degeneration.

This study was accomplished for appreciation of the mandibular moments according to antero- posterior movement of pivot placed on the lower natural dentition. For this study, 20 subjects(male, $21\sim30$ yrs., average age 24) in the category of normal occlusion were selected, and the intraoral Vitallium clutches were cast and fabricated for each subjects. A 2-dimension PSD(Position Sensitive Detector, Hamamatsu Photonics Co., Japan) was attached to maxillary clutch in a mode of three dimensional control and LED (Light Emit Diode, Hamamatsu Photonics Co., Japan) was set up on mandibular clutch. Both clutches were set into oral cavity of each subjects and adjusted. Then the subjects were allowed to intercuspated with maximal bite force while the pivoting ball in the mid-line moving from anterior toward posterior position. The displacement scales were recorded by CCD camera(Sony, CCD-TR-705) and VCR, The conclusions were as follows : 1. When the subject was allowed to bite the metal pivoting ball in the midline of lower dentition with maximal bite force voluntarily while moving from lower central incisor to canine, 1st premolar, End premolar, 1st molar and 2nd molar. The lever actions on the pivot were revealed in all subjects. The equilibrium of moment were revealed on the pivots of 1st premolar(14 subjects), End premolar(4 subjects), and canine(2 subjects) areas. 2. The changes of loading on the TMJ according to antero-posterior positional changes of metal pivoting ball were able to recognize as follow. Compression on the TMJ was increased when the pivot moves anteriorly from the equilibrium point, and tension on the TMJ was increased when posteriorly. 3. 13 subjects were recognized their habitual chewing sides(Rights, Left8), and 7 subjects were not. During maximal biting, mandible was displaced toward their habitual chewing sides on the metal pivoting ball in the frontal plane. 4. In cephalometric analysis, the average genial angle of 20 subjects was $116.75^{\circ}$ and the average mandibular body length was 79.77mm. The equilibrium points of mandibular moment were positioned more posteriorly in the subjects having larger Genial angle than in the smaller(p<0.05). Relationships among the angle between FH plane and occlusal plane, the angle between occlusal plane and mandibular plane , and mandibular body length were not significant(p>0.05).

Resting-state Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging(fMRI) data detects the temporal correlations in Blood Oxygen Level Dependent(BOLD) signal and these temporal correlations are regarded to reflect intrinsic cortical connectivity, which is deactivated during attention demanding, non-self referential tasks, called Default Mode Network(DMN). The relationship between fMRI and anatomical connectivity has not been studied in detail, however, the preceded studies have tried to clarify this relationship using Diffusion Tensor Imaging(DTI) and fMRI. These studies use method that fMRI data assists DTI data or vice versa and it is used as guider to perform DTI tractography on the brain image. In this study, we hypothesized that functional connectivity in resting state would reflect anatomical connectivity of DMN and the combined images include information of fMRI and DTI showed visible connection between brain regions related in DMN. In the previous study, functional connectivity was determined by subjective region of interest method. However, in this study, functional connectivity was determined by objective and advanced method through Independent Component Analysis. There was a stronger connection between Posterior Congulate Cortex(PCC) and PHG(Parahippocampa Gyrus) than Anterior Cingulate Cortex(ACC) and PCC. This technique might be used in several clinical field and will be the basis for future studies related to aging and the brain diseases, which are needed to be translated not only functional connectivity, but structural connectivity.

목 적: 전산화 단층촬영방법(Computed Tomography, CT)에 따라 고식적(Axial), 나선식(Helical), 연속(Cine) 주사방법으로 획득되어진 영상은 주사방법이 다르므로 각각의 재현되는 이미지 상에서 차이가 존재한다. 각각의 전산화 단층촬영 주사방법(scan type)이 움직임을 얼마나 정확히 묘사하는지 알아보고자 구동 팬톰을 이용하여 재현성에 대해 고찰해 보고자 한다. 대상 및 방법: 상 하 방향, 위 아래 방향 움직임을 재현하기 위해 자체 제작한 구동 팬톰과 호흡동조 구동 motor를 이용한다. 구동 motor 위에 표지자를 올려놓고 전산화 단층촬영 시 움직임을 구별하기 위해 표지자에 위치 표시를 위한 방사선 비투과성 물질(Localizer)을 부착한다. 자체 제작한 구동 팬톰을 이용하여 위 아래 움직임은 1.3 cm (16회/1분당)으로 고정 시키고, 호흡동조 구동 motor을 이용하여 상 하 움직임은 0.2 cm (8 rot/1분당)으로 고정 한다. 각각의 움직임을 고정 시키고 난 후, 전산화 단층 촬영 방법에 따라 고식적(Axial), 나선식(Helical), 연속(Cine) 주사방법으로 촬영한다. RPT 장비를 이용하여 움직임을 나타내는 표지자에 부착한 방사선 비투과성 물질과 볼륨 재현성이 정확한지 비교, 분석 한다. 결 과: 표지자의 전체 체적은 88.2 $cm^3$로 위 아래 방향 3 cm, 상 하 방향 0.3 cm 이동을 고려했을 때는 전체 체적이 184.3 $cm^3$이었다. 각각의 전산화 단층촬영방법에 따른 전체 체적은 고식적 주사방법에서는 135 $cm^3$, 나선식 주사방법에서는 164.9 $cm^3$, 연속 주사방법에서는 181.7 $cm^3$였다. 움직임에 대한 재현성을 나타내는 데 있어 연속 주사방법에서 가장 근접하게 표지자를 묘출하였다. 또한, 표지자에 부착한 방사선 비투과성 물질의 재현성에서도 연속 주사방법에서 가장 근접하게 나타내었다. 결 론: 전산화 단층촬영방법에 따른 고식적, 나선식, 연속 주사방법은 움직임에 영향을 많이 받는 장기를 촬영할 때, 움직임에 따른 정확한 장기 묘사 및 종양 조직의 움직임을 재현해야 한다. 본 실험에서 사용한 구동 팬톰을 이용한 표지자를 재현하는데 있어 전산화 단층촬영 시 연속 주사방법에서 촬영 할 때 가장 재현성이 높았다. 하지만, 임상 적용 시 환자의 호흡이나 움직임이 팬톰처럼 일정하지 않기 때문에 이를 위한 환자 교육 및 호흡을 일정하게 해줄 수 있는 장치의 사용 및 개발이 필요하며, 각각의 전산화 단층촬영방법에 대한 피폭선량에 대해서도 고려해야 할 것이라 사료 된다.

Recently, an approximation of a wavelet series has been developed in the analyses of an unknown function. Most of articles have been studied on thresholding and shrinkage methods for its wavelet coefficients based on (non)parametric and Bayesian methods when the sample size is considered as a maximum resolution in wavelet series. In this paper, regardless of the sample size, we are focusing only on the choice of a maximum resolution in wavelet series. We propose a Bayesian approach to the choice of a maximum resolution based on the linear combination of the wavelet basis functions.
