The purpose of this paper is to propose a new localized imaging method of reduced imaging time luting a locally-linear gradient. Since most fast MR(Magnetic Resonance) imaging methods need the whole $\kappa$-space(Spatial frequency space) data corresponding to the whole imaging area, there are limitstions in reducing the minimum imaging time. The imaging method proposed in this paper uses a specially-made gradient coil generating a local ramp-shape field and uniform field outside of the imaging areal Conventional imaging sequences can be used without any RF/gradient pulse sequence modifiestions except the change in the number of encoding steps and the field of view.

This paper proposes a method for rejecting false matches in automobile rear view camera image sequences. Our method consists of two submethods which utilize the motion characteristics of an automobile. One is for a straight motion and the other is for a curve motion. First, we classify an image sequence into a straight motion or a curve motion and then apply an appropriate submethod. Our method works in cases where the percentage of true matches is as low as 30%.

Objective : The aim of this study was to compare the knee joint displaying between the anteroposterior weight bearing(AP-WB) View and the metatarsophalangeal(MTP) view for assessing joint space narrowing(JSN) and osteophytes in osteoarthritis patients. Subjects and Materials : Two hundreds of twenty patients(38 men) who came rheumatoid caused by knee pain, had both AP-WB and MTP views taken on a day. Radiographs were evaluated independently by 13 experienced observers(3 orthopedics surgeon, 2 rheumatogist, 3 radiologist, 5 radiological technologist) They assessed JSN and osteophytes using by PACS monitor JSN was scored by the optic evaluation to the nearest at the narrowest point in medial compartments of the tibiofemoral joint in both knees. Osteophytes were graded 0 to 3(bad 0, not bad 1, good 2 and very good 3) according to a standard atlas. All exam was using by Philips(Buckey Diagnostic-TH) X-ray material. Exposure condition was 60 kv, 8 mAs and 100 cm focus to film distance. Results : JSN was scored $1.32{\pm}0.050$ in AP-WB view, $2.51{\pm}0.046$ in MTP view. MTP view of JSN score is higher to AP-WB view significantly(p<0.05). Osteophytes scored $2.14{\pm}0.054$ in AP-WB view, $2.10{\pm}0.054$ in MTP view. There was no difference(p<0.05) between MTP view and AP-WB view in osteophytes. But MTP view was more reproducible than AP-WB view Conclusions : Joint space narrowing is most important factor to diagnosis with knee joint Osteoarthritis patients. This study was summarized as follows; In comparision of JSN, MTP view was more widely displayed than AP-WB view. In comparision of Osteophytes, there was no difference between MTP view and AP-WB view. It was concluded MTP view was more useful method to diagnosis of knee joint Osteoarthritis patients.

A manifold is used to represent a relationship between high-dimensional data samples in low-dimensional space. In human pose estimation, it is created in low-dimensional space for processing image and 3D body configuration data. Manifold learning is to build a manifold. But it is vulnerable to silhouette variations. Such silhouette variations are occurred due to view-change, person-change, distance-change, and noises. Representing silhouette variations in a single manifold is impossible. In this paper, we focus a silhouette variation problem occurred by view-change. In previous view invariant pose estimation methods based on manifold learning, there were two ways. One is modeling manifolds for all view points. The other is to extract view factors from mapping functions. But these methods do not support one by one mapping for silhouettes and corresponding body configurations because of unsupervised learning. Modeling manifold and extracting view factors are very complex. So we propose a method based on triple manifolds. These are view manifold, pose manifold, and body configuration manifold. In order to build manifolds, we employ biased manifold learning. After building manifolds, we learn mapping functions among spaces (2D image space, pose manifold space, view manifold space, body configuration manifold space, 3D body configuration space). In our experiments, we could estimate various body poses from 24 view points.

This study was designed to evaluate the interrelationship between the condylar head position in transcranial view and the articular disc position in the arthrography. The condylar positions were assessed by subjective method and linear measurement method on the transcranial view. The subjects for this study consisted of 24 symptomatic joints with normal disc position, 37 joints with anterior disc displacement with reduction and 44 joints with anterior disc displacement without reduction that were classified by arthrotomography under the fluoroscopic guidance. The interrelationship between the condylar head position in transcranial view and the articular disc position in the arthrography was evaluated by Chi square test. The obtained results were as follows : 1. There was no significant interrelationship between the position of condylar head in closed mouth state on transcraniaJ view and articular disc position in the arthrography (p>0.05). 2. There was no significant interrelationship between the changes of interarticular distance in 1 inch opening state and articular disc position in the arthrography (p>0.05). 3. There was no significant interrelationship between the position of condylar head related to the apex of articular eminence in 1 inch opening state and articular disc position in the arthrography(p>0.05). 4. There was significant interrelationship between the changes of interarticular distance that is assessed by linear measurement method in maximum opening state and articular disc position in the arthrography(p<0.05), but there was no significant interrelationship when the condylar head position was assessed by subjective method(p>0.05). 5. There was significant interrelationship between the degree of condylar translation in maximum opening state and articular disc position in the arthrography(p<0.05). 6. The correlation coefficient between two methods to assess the position of condylar head were 0.7989: the condylar head position in articular fossa in closed state, 0.6847: interarticular space in 1 inch opening state, 0.8965: the degree of condylar translation in 1 inch opening state, 0.5944: the changes of interarticular space in maximum opening state, 0.9215: the degree of condylar translation in maximum opening state.

The purpose of this study starts searching a new method for preservation, succession, and research of folksongs in the situation that the function and transmission of folksongs are transformed or disappear by being behind modernization. Also, trying to develop a new method of study of folksongs along with a new view of them, I put fusion in the heart of the study. Fusion means a structural change in the middle of the process of combination from more than two things. Moreover, in order to practice the fusion method of study consilience in a view of study is necessary. The interdisciplinary study beings in accepting differences between academics as long as the differences have a meaningful value disassemble and differentiation are repeated. That is, fusion means rebirth through disassemble. According to this logic, we need to disassemble the folksongs for fusion study of folksongs, research the structure and component of folksongs in a new view and understand each part of the wholeness of folksongs. On top of that, we need to try combine the parts with anything else or interpret them with consilience. In this study, I researched the previous example in the fusion or integration of folksongs and Korean classic poetry in the time of enlightenment of Korea. In addition, I studied the way of fusion folksongs as culturology, bio-sociology, and sympathy. Looking back folksongs in a variety of view, we can realize folksongs are disassembled or differentiated at the same time they reborn and are interpreted in a new view.

The correspondence problem for stereo image matching plays an important role in expanding view points as multi view video applications become more popular. The conventional disparity estimation algorithms have limitation to find exact disparities because they consider not image features but similiar intensity points. Thus we propose an efficient disparity estimation algorithm considering features of stereo image pairs. As simulation results, our proposed method confirms better intermediate views than the existing block-matching methods.
