  • With the advances in radiation therapy technology and equipment, the need for more accurate and safer radiation delivery to the target region has been continuously growing. Stereotactic Radiosurgery(SRS) is a good example of $^{\ast}Accuracy^{\ast}$ but has a substantial risk of causing severe late neurological damages. Fractionated Stereotactic Radiation Therapy(FSRT) is a modification of SRS enabling conventional fractionation with maintaining accuracy using noninvasive and relocatable frame. Verification of mechanical accuracy in FSRT has been done according to the manufacture's recommendations using RLPP, LTLF, and Depth-helmet. In order to reinforce this, we have developed additional novel verification procedure using Linac-grams with the Angiolocalizer attached on the GTC frame, which are then digitized into the planning software(X-Knife) to generate the three dimensional coordinates for cmoparison. This method has been successful in such ways that the anatomical landmarks are identifiable on the Linac-gram films and that the serial comparisons of the stereotactic coordinates of the isocenter are possible with more certainty a along the FSRT course than before.

  • 항공기 연료계통은 연료 공급, 연료탱크 간 연료이송, 각 연료탱크 내의 잔여 연료량 측정 등의 기능을 수행하며, 추락 시 화재의 직접적인 원인이 되기 때문에 추락에 견딜 수 있도록 설계하여 승무원의 추락 생존성을 높여야 한다. 민간에서는 연료계통의 내추락 설계를 감항 요구도로 반영하여 철저한 검증을 요구하고 있으며, 비행안전이 확보된 항공기 개발을 위해 관련 감항인증기준 및 입증방안에 대한 연구가 필수적이나 미미한 실정이다. 이러한 사항에 착안하여 본 논문에서는 연료계통 내추락성 입증 지침 마련을 통한 비행안전성 향상 방안 연구의 일환으로 군용 회전익항공기에 적용 가능한 연료계통 내추락 관련 감항인증기준, 입증방법 및 적용 사례에 대한 분석 결과를 기술하였다.

  • We propose a new method of generating client models for HMM based text-dependent speaker verification system with only a small amount of training data. To make a client model, statistical methods such as segmental K-means algorithm are widely used, but they do not guarantee the quality or reliability of a model when only limited data are avaliable. In this paper, we propose a blind speech segmentation based on level building DTW algorithm as an alternative method to make a client model with limited data. In addition, considering the fact that voiced sounds have much more speaker-specific information than unvoiced sounds and energy of the former is higher than that of the latter, we also propose a new score evaluation method using the observation probability raised to the power of weighting factor estimated from the normalized log energy. Our experiment shows that the proposed methods are superior to conventional HMM based speaker verification system.

  • A tidal prism eutrophication model, an one-dimensional intertidal model, is developed to study water quality conditions at small coastal basins and tidal creeks. The model simulates the physical transport processes using the concept of tidal flushing. The concept is simple and straightforward, and thus is ideal for small coastal basins with complex geometry. The model, having twenty-four state variables in the water column, simulates salinity, temperature, dissolved oxygen, three algal groups, and the cycles of carbon, nitrogen, phosphorus and silica. The model is applied to the Lynnhaven Bay, a small coastal basin of Chesapeake Bay in U.S.A. The model is calibrated using the field data collected in 1994, and then is verified using the independently collected data in 1980. The model overall gives a good reproduction of the field data, partly owing to the data collected from the field surveys specifically designed for the model application. This paper presents the procedure, and the results of the model calibration and verification.

  • There are almost no studies on verification of requirements for high speed rolling stocks by means of RAM goals and on setting RAM goals by means of verification on practical reliability, availability and maintainability for high speed rolling stocks though they are covered in specification of an order that RAM goals asked of rolling stocks are shown for gaining high quality of them and availability when they are in operation. This study is for estimating number of high speed train-sets that would be supplementarily placed an order through verification of RAM goals of a project for the introduction of KTX-II 100 cars. It verify that optimized requirements for high speed rolling stocks by relatively comparison with between requirements for train-sets through setting RAM goals and requirements for train-sets through analysis of prospects for management balance with high speed rolling stocks.

  • Although iris recognition verification is considered to be the safest method of biometric verification, studies have shown that iris features may be illegally used. To protect iris features and further improve the security of iris recognition and verification, this study applies the Gaussian and Laplacian mechanisms and to hide iris features by differentiating privacy. The efficiency of the algorithm and evaluation of the image quality by the image hashing algorithm are selected as indicators to evaluate these mechanisms. The experimental results indicate that the security of an iris image can be significantly improved using differential privacy protection.

  • Verification of dose distribution is an essential part of ensuring the treatment planning system's (TPS) calculated dose will achieve the desired outcome in radiation therapy. Each measurement have uncertainty associated with it. It is desirable to reduce the measurement uncertainty. A best approach is to reduce the uncertainty associated with each step of the process to keep the total uncertainty under acceptable limits. Point dose patient specific quality assurance (QA) is recommended by American Association of Medical Physicists (AAPM) and European Society for Radiotherapy and Oncology (ESTRO) for all the complex radiation therapy treatment techniques. Relative and absolute point dose measurement methods are used to verify the TPS computed dose. Relative and absolute point dose measurement techniques have a number of steps to measure the point dose which includes chamber cross calibration, electrometer reading, chamber calibration coefficient, beam quality correction factor, reference conditions, influences quantities, machine stability, nominal calibration factor (for relative method) and absolute dose calibration of machine. Keeping these parameters in mind, the estimated relative percentage uncertainty associated with the absolute point dose measurement is 2.1% (k=1). On the other hand, the relative percentage uncertainty associated with the relative point dose verification method is estimated to 1.0% (k=1). To compare both point dose measurement methods, 13 head and neck (H&N) IMRT patients were selected. A point dose for each patient was measured with both methods. The average percentage difference between TPS computed dose and measured absolute relative point dose was 1.4% and 1% respectively. The results of this comparative study show that while choosing the relative or absolute point dose measurement technique, both techniques can produce similar results for H&N IMRT treatment plans. There is no statistically significant difference between both point dose verification methods based upon the t-test for comparing two means.

  • 고에너지 광자선을 발생시키는 의료용선형가속기의 선질은 경우에 따라 변이를 가져오게 된다. 이러한 변이를 정확하게 판정하여 줄 수 있는 방사선측정법의 활용은 매우 중요하다. 보편적으로 광자선의 측정에 있어서 전리함의 사용이 아주 빈번하였으나 전자포탈영상장치(EPID)의 등장은 새로운 방사선측정법에 대한 가능성의 시작을 예견해준다. 실험은 6MV 광자선의 대칭성, Light/Radiation congruence, 그리고 Wedge filter를 통한 간편한 에너지의 변화에측과 위치의 정확도에 대하여 측정을 시행하였다. 사실 방사선측정의 대표적인 방법은 물팬톰-전리함응 이용한 모델인데 본 실험에서는 영상의 화소가 지니는 디지탈 값을 적절한 소프트웨어로 읽어내어서 데이터를 환산하여 결과를 얻었다. 선행실험에서 얻은 상대선량률을 적용하여 대칭성에서는 조사야영역이 l0$\times$10$cm^2$ 일 때 횡축과 종축에서 1.2%, 1.2%로 비교적 오차가 적었다. 그리고 Light/Radiation field congruence 여부는 횡축이 0.3%, 그리고 종축이 0.2%로서 예상한 기대값에 접근하였다. 다음으로 wedge filter를 활용한 에너지의 변이와 위치의 정확도에 대한 움직임을 알 수 있었다.
