Poor posture of the neck and head long been recognized as a factor contributing to the onset and perpetuation of pain in the head and neck region. The purposes of the study were to evaluate the changes in forward head posture and pressure pain threshold in tension type headache group and control group. Forward head posture were measured to craniovertebral angle and cranial rotation angle. Craniovertebral angle was smaller in tension type headache group(p<0.05), and cranial rotation angle was larger in tension type headache group(p<0.05). Pressure pain threshold was similar between tension type headache group and control group with the exception of right suboccipitalis and left temporalis(p<0.05).

The major problem at a branch point for point-to-multipoint available bit rate(ABR) services in asynchronous transfer mode (ATM) networks is how to consolidate backward resource management(BRM) cells from each branch for a multicast connection. In this paper, we propose an efficient feedback consolidation algorithm based on an adaptive dynamic threshold(ADT) to eliminate the consolidation noise and the reduce the consolidation delay. The main idea of the ADT algorithm lies in that each branch point estimates the ABR traffic condition of the network through the virtual queue estimation and the transmission threshold of the queue level in branch points is adaptively controlled according to the estimation. Simulation results show that the proposed ADT algorithm can achieve a faster response in congestion status and a higher link utilization compared with the previous works.

Fault diagnosis plays an important role in the performance and safe operation of many modern engineering plants. This paper investigates the problem of fault detection using neural networks in dynamic systems. A general framework for constructing a nonlinear fault detection scheme for nonlinear dynamic systems containing modeling uncertaintly is proposed. The main idea behind the proposed approach is to monitor the physical system with an off -line learning neural network and then to approximate the upper and lower thresholds of acceleration of the nominal system with the model-based threshold(ThMB) method, The performance of the proposed fault detection scheme is investigated through simulations of a pendulum with uncertainty.

The experiments were carried out during a total of nine sessions, that is, 3 sessions over 3 days. The CK levels decreased depending on the experiment session ($P{\leq}0.05$), but there was no significant difference ($P{\leq}0.05$) between the experimental group and the control group. Pressure threshold levels significantly decreased depending on the experiment session and the treatments had higher effects in the experimental group. VAS figures significantly decreased depending on the experiment session ($P{\leq}0.005$) and the treatments had higher effects in the experimental group. The results of this study verified the contention that applying vibration treatment immediately after inducing DOMS is more effective in terms of pressure pain threshold (PPT) and VAS, but not CK levels, than applying the treatment 24 hours after inducing DOMS. In addition, the experimental group showed a statistically significant difference compared to the control group. Therefore, it was concluded that applying vibration treatment immediately after inducing DOMS can be used as a DOMS treatment method.

According to the development and wide use of broad band internet etc., diverse application technologies using large capacity data such as images have been progressed and in these systems, for accurate acquisition and precise applications of an original signal, the degradation phenomenon generated in the transmission process etc. should be removed. Noises have become known as the main cause of the degradation phenomenon and especially Gaussian noise represents characteristics occurring dependently in image signals and degrades detail information such as edge. In this paper, we removed Gaussian noise using a subdivided nonlinear function according to a threshold value and analyzed the histogram acquired from an edge image to establish a threshold value adaptively, and strengthened detail information of image by using the postprocessing. In simulation results, the proposed method represented excellent performance from comparison of MSE with existing methods.

영상 정보를 이용한 자동 낙상 감지 알고리즘을 제안한다. 자동으로 낙상을 감지하기 위한 낙상 특징 파라미터를 추출하기 위해서 영상정보를 광류 방식에 적용하여 움직임 값들을 추출하고 이 움직임 값들에 대한 전체적인 변화의 정도와 기울기, 중심점을 주성분 분석 방법으로 계산한다. 계산된 고유값과 고유 벡터를 사용하여 6가지 낙상 특징 파라미터를 정의한다. 이 낙상특징파라미터가 미리 정해둔 임계값을 초과하는 경우를 낙상으로 판단하는 단순 임계치 방법과 낙상특징파라미터를 은닉 마르코프 모델(Hidden Markov Model; HMM)에 적용시켜 낙상을 판단하는 방법과 단순임계치와 은닉 마르코프 모델을 결합한 낙상 감지 방법을 제안하고 그 결과를 비교 및 분석한다. 단순 임계치와 은닉 마르코프 모델을 결합한 방법은 단순임계치 방법으로 낙상 가능한 행동들을 결정하고 이 결정된 낙상 행동들만을 은닉 마르코프 모델을 적용하여 낙상을 감지한다. 이 방법은 계산량을 줄이면서 감지 정확도를 유지하는 결과를 보인다.

Purpose: This study aimed to evaluate the differences between clinical and quantitative sensory testing (QST) results among persistent idiopathic dentoalveolar pain (PIDP), inflammatory dental pain, and control group subjects to identify discriminative clinical features for differential diagnosis. Methods: Thirty-three patients (5 PIDP-a without surgical procedures 10 PIDP-b with surgical procedures, 8 dental pain patients, and 10 controls) were evaluated for clinical features and QST results. Cold pain threshold, heat pain threshold, mechanical pain threshold (MPT), mechanical pain sensitivity, and pressure pain threshold (PPT) were performed. Psychological factors were assessed using Symptom Checklist-90-Revision (SCL-90-R) and a chart review was conducted to evaluate additional discriminative clinical features such as pain quality and treatment prognosis. Results: The dental pain group had lower PPT than the PIDP-b and the control group. The PIDP-a group showed higher MPT and PPT than the PIDP-b and dental pain group but the difference was not statistically significant. Differences in SCL-90-R SOM (Somatization), O-C (obsessive-compulsive), ANX (anxiety), and PSY (Psychoticism) values were statistically significant among groups. PIDP-a and PIDP-b groups showed remaining symptoms after treatment and the pain tended to spread widely, whereas, in toothache patients, symptoms disappeared after treatment. However, factors that confound the diagnosis, such as an increase in pain during chewing and a decrease in the pain threshold at the affected site, could also be identified. Conclusions: PIDP and dental pain groups have distinct clinical symptoms, but there are also factors that cause confusing in diagnosis. Therefore, various clinical examination results should be carefully reviewed and comprehensively evaluated in the differential diagnosis process.

본 논문은 Nanosheet FET(NSFET)와 FinFET의 구조를 갖는 소자 성능을 조사하기 위해서 3차원 소자 시뮬레이터를 이용하여 시뮬레이션한 결과를 소개한다. NSFET와 FinFET의 채널 도핑 농도에 따른 전류-전압 특성을 시뮬레이션하였고, 그 전류-전압 특성으로부터 추출한 문턱전압, 문턱전압이하 기울기 등의 성능을 비교하였다. NSFET이 FinFET보다 채널 도핑 농도에 따른 전류-전압 특성에서 드레인 전류가 더 많이 흐르며 더 높은 문턱전압을 갖는다. 문턱전압이하 기울기는 NSFET가 FinFET보다 더 가파른 기울기를 갖는다.

The medical bed developed in this study is an electrically driven segmental keyboard. First describe the instrument of the segmental bed specially designed for pressure ulcer prevention, then the motor control system and pressure ulcer prevention operation of the bed. The main factor of pressure ulcer generation is displayed as body pressure x time, and when the keyboard falls, the body pressure becomes zero, and the pressure becomes higher than the threshold even if the body pressure is above the threshold, the pressure control algorithm has been developed. Therefore, using the proposed pressure control method, it has no particular ulcer occurred theoretically.
