Non-carious cervical lesions (NCCLs) with gingival recession require specific consideration on both aspects of hard and soft tissue lesion. In the restorative aspect, careful finishing and polishing of the restorations prior to mucogingival surgery is the critical factor contributing to success. Regarding surgery, assessment of the configuration of the lesion and the choice of surgical technique are important factors. The precise diagnosis and the choice of the proper treatment procedure should be made on the basis of both restorative and surgical considerations to ensure the successful treatment of NCCLs.

A morphological filtering algorithm using directional information is presented. Directional filtering technique is effective in reducing noises and preserving edges. The proposed directional filtering is composed of two stage filtering processes. The opening and closing operations in the lst stage are performed for the pixels is aligned to the vertical, horizontal, and two diagonal directions, respectively. The opening operation supresses the positive impulse noises, while the closing operation the negative ones. Then, each directional result and their average value are filtered by the opening or closing operations in the 2nd stage. The averaging operation diminishes the effects of Gaussian noises in the homogeneous regions. Thus, the morphological operation in the 1 st stageremoves the impulse noises and in 2nd stage reduces. Gaussian ones. The experimental results show that the proposed filtering is superior to the existing nonlinear filtering in the aspects of the subjective quality. Also, the morphological filtering method reduces the computational loads.

Hydrologic pattern under climate change has been paid attention to as one of the most important issues in hydrologic science group. Rainfall and runoff is a key element in the Earth's hydrological cycle, and associated with many different aspects such as water supply, flood prevention and river restoration. In this regard, a main objective of this study is to evaluate design flood using simulation techniques which can consider a full spectrum of uncertainty. Here we utilize a weather state based stochastic multivariate model as conditional probability model for simulating the rainfall field. A major premise of this study is that large scale climatic patterns are a major driver of such persistent year to year changes in rainfall probabilities. Uncertainty analysis in estimating design flood is inevitably needed to examine reliability for the estimated results. With regard to this point, this study applies a Bayesian Markov Chain Monte Carlo scheme to the NWS-PC rainfall-runoff model that has been widely used, and a case study is performed in Soyang Dam watershed in Korea. A comprehensive discussion on design flood under climate change is provided.

Prosthetic reconstruction of musculoskeletal defects about the knee for tumor has many advantages, particularly the maintenance of motion and immediate functional restoration. But, prosthetic reconstruction has inherent limitations in terms of long-term durability. The authors have reported here a patient who had mechanical failure at 61 months later following use of a modular resection system to reconstruct the segmental defect of proximal tibia in osteosarcoma. In this case, another technique of extensor mechanism reconstruction using Achilles tendon allograft was attempted. Because of the concerns involving durability of tumor prosthesis, increased emphasis has to be placed on innovation in prosthetic design.

다목적 대형 댐의 건설로 수몰된 과거의 삶의 공간을 20년이 지나서 다시 복원한다는 것은 그곳에 살던 실향민 등에게는 참으로 반가운 소식이다. 본 연구에서는 1980년대 초에 완공된 충주댐으로 인하여 물 속에 잠긴 청풍지구를 수몰이전의 입체 지형 공간적으로 원형복원하기 위한 원격탐사 기법을 적용한 것이다. 비교적 해상도가 좋은 인공위성 사진자료와 댐 수몰이전의 디지털 위성영상 데이터를 수집하고, 수몰직전에 제작된 지형도를 이용하여 위성영상자료의 통합 적용하여 수몰직전의 지형공간정보를 현재시간으로 영상 복원하기 위하여 원격탐사 기법을 적용한 것이다 이를 위하여 지형도에서 추출한 등고선과 현재의 등고선과의 접목을 통하여 청풍 주변지역을 중심으로 당시의 수치표고모형을 생성하였다. 또한 이를 입체적으로 보여주기 위한 투시조감도를 각 방향에서 생성함으로서 수몰이전의 아름다운 모습을 3차원적으로 영상복원 하였다. 또한 좀더 가까이서 수몰마을을 보기 위한 근접비행시뮬레이션 동영상을 제작하여 과거 기억 속의 고향을 영상에서 찾아볼 수 있도록 한 것이다.

A Dual Sensor Wiener Filter technique was used to improve the image quality of the scanning type digital radiographic system (resolution and SNR). In this method, two images were acquried simultaneously using two sensors with high and low resolution and SNR values. Using the cross Power spectrum between dual sensor outputs of the same chest radiographic image. we design a new type of Wiener Filter and implement it with fast algorithm. We compared the performance of this new dual sensor filter with conventional single sensor filters (Wiener Filter and Parametric Projec- tion Filter) . In simulation studies, it is shown that this new method has SNR improvement of 1-3 dB better than conventional filters.

Utilizing of the geotextile container shows several advantages such as standardized construction, factory manufactured products, the control of quality, workability, and economical point of view. Recently this technique can be applied to rehabilitate the loss of rail roadbed due to the heavy rainfall. In this study, a large-scale laboratory test were conducted with simulation of static performance on the geotextile container reinforced rail roadbed. Based on the laboratory test results, the vertical pressure distribution with respect to the depth, and settlement of rail roadbed were measured and compared test results between geotextile container reinforced case and unreinforced case. Thus, the effectiveness of reinforcement was evaluated in terms of its performance and stability.

Principal component analysis(PCA) is a multivariate technique falling under the general title of factor analysis. The purpose of PCA is to Identify the dependence structure behind a multivariate stochastic observation In order to obtain a compact description of it. In engineering field PCA is utilized mainly (or data compression and restoration. In this paper we propose a new robust Hebbian algorithm for robust PCA. This algorithm is based on a hyperbolic tangent function due to Hampel ef al.(1989) which is known to be robust in Statistics. We do two experiments to investigate the performance of the new robust Hebbian learning algorithm for robust PCA.

Distribution Automation System(DAS) is designed to improve operational efficiency by acquisition and control of remote data using its components such as central computation units, communication network and feeder remote terminal units. A conventional human machine interface of the DAS adopts a schematic diagram which is made by drawing power equipments on the geographic information system map. The single line diagram is more useful than the schematic diagram for the main tasks of distribution system operation such as protective relay coordination, service restoration and loss minimization. Since the configuration of the distribution line is changed according to the relocation of the open tie switches, the auto-drawing algorithm based on the connection between the sections and the switches is an essential technique. This paper proposes a new auto-drawing algorithm for a single line diagram of distribution systems based on tertiary tree and collision avoidance method. The feasibility of the proposed algorithm has been testified for various cases using practical distribution system with 12 feeders.
