We propose some methods to obtain optimal thresholds and classification functions by using various cutoff criterion based on the bivariate ROC curve that represents bivariate cumulative distribution functions. The false positive rate and false negative rate are calculated with these classification functions for bivariate normal distributions.

Most of computer systems to be connected to network have been exposed to some network attacks and became to targets of system attack. System managers have established the IDS to prevent the system attacks over network. The previous IDS have decided intrusions detecting the requested connection packets more than critical values in order to detect attacks. This techniques have False Positive possibilities and have difficulties to detect the slow scan increasing the time between sending scan probes and the coordinated scan originating from multiple hosts. We propose the port scan detection rules detecting the RST/ACK flag packets to request some abnormal connections and design the data structures capturing some of packets. This proposed system is decreased a False Positive possibility and can detect the slow scan, because a few data can be maintained for long times. This system can also detect the coordinated scan effectively detecting the RST/ACK flag packets to be occurred the target system.

Neck mass is common neoplasms, but it poses a diagnostic dilemma for the physician. The differential diagnosis include neoplastic, inflammatory and developmental causes. The FNAC is one of the most valuable tests in the initial assessment and differential diagnosis of the neck mass. FNAC was performed with 267 cases of the neck mass, during the period from April, 1988 to October, 1990 at the department of General Surgery, Soon Chun Hyang. University Hospital. Thyroid lesions were excluded from this analysis. Final diagnosis was based on resection histology in 58 cases, and surgical specimens were compared with FNAC. The following results were obtoired ; 1) Of 267 cases, there we re 9 cases(3.4%) of congenital lesion, 74 cases(27.7%) of inflammatory lesion, 40 cases(15.0%) of benign tumor, 12 cases(4.5%) of primary malignant tumor, 37 cases(13.8%) of metastatic tumor, 75cases(28.1%) of reactive hyperplasia, 20 cases(7.5%) of unsatisfactory. In the pathologic classification, inflammatory lesion was the most common. 2) In the 58 cases of excisional biopsy, sensitivity 93.8%, specificity 95.2%, false positive 11.8%, false negative 2.4%, positive predictive value 88.2%, negative predictive value 97.6%, accuracy 94.8%. 3) The most common disease was the tuberculous lymphadenitis (53 cases, 19.8%). sensitivity 57.9%, specificity 100.0%, false positive 0.0%, false negative 17.0%, positive predictive value 100.0%, negative predictive value 83.0%, accuracy 86.2%.

Fall event detection is one of the most common problems for elderly people, especially those living alone because falls result in serious injuries such as joint dislocations, fractures, severe head injuries or even death. In order to prevent falls or fall-related injuries, several previous methods based on video sensor showed low fall detection rates in recent years. To improve this problem and outperform the system performance, this paper presented a novel approach for fall event detection in the elderly using a subtraction between successive difference images and temporal templates in real time environment. The proposed algorithm obtained the successful detection rate of 96.43% and the low false positive rate of 3.125% even though the low-quality video sequences are obtained by a USB PC camera sensor. The experimental results have shown very promising performance in terms of high detection rate and low false positive rate.

The double sampling scheme is effective in reducing the sampling cost. However, the doubly sampled data is contaminated by two types of error, namely false-positive and false-negative errors. These would make the statistical analysis more difficult, and it would require more sophisticate analysis tools. For instance, the Wald method for the interval estimation of a proportion would not work well. In fact, it is well known that the Wald confidence interval behaves very poorly in many sampling schemes. In this note, the property of the Wald interval is investigated in terms of the coverage probability and the expected width. An alternative confidence interval based on the Agresti-Coull's approach is recommended.

Background:The aim of the research was to explore a cost effective, fast, easy to perform, and sensitive method for epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutation testing. Methods: High resolution melting analysis (HRM) was introduced to evaluate the efficacy of the analysis for dectecting EGFR mutations in exons 18 to 21 using formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissues and plasma free DNA from 120 patients. Results: The total EGFR mutation rate was 37.5% (45/120) detected by direct sequencing. There were 48 mutations in 120 FFPE tissues assessed by HRM. For plasma free DNA, the EGFR mutation rate was 25.8% (31/120). The sensitivity of HRM assays in FFPE samples was 100% by HRM. There was a low false-positive mutation rate but a high false-negative rate in plasma free DNA detected by HRM. Conclusions: Our results show that HRM analysis has the advantage of small tumor sample need. HRM applied with plasma free DNA showed a high false-negative rate but a low false-positive rate. Further research into appropriate methods and analysis needs to be performed before HRM for plasma free DNA could be accepted as an option in diagnostic or screening settings.

We retrospectively reviewed the results of 1,850 fine needle aspiration cytology(FNAC) of thyroid nodules performed from 1990 to 1991 in the Department of Pathology, Seoul National University Hospital. Among 1,528 cases and 322 cases aspirated by clinicians and a pathologist, 465 cases(30.4%) and 13 cases(4.0%) of the aspirates were inadequate, respectively. In 227 cases, correlation of the FNAC diagnosis and histologic diagnosis was done. Excluding the inadequate cases, the sensitivity nor the detection of neoplasm(malignancy together with follicular adenoma) was 86.4% and the specificity was 70.7%. The overall diagnostic accuracy was 79.0%. There were 16 false-positive cases(7.0%), and 19 false-negative cases(8.4%). The predictive value of each cytologic diagnosis was 92% in papillary carcinoma, and 100%, in Hashimoto's thyroiditis. The expectancy of malignancy was 52.8% in "suspicious malignancy" and 26.7% in "atypical lesion".

Analyzing characteristics of spam text messages had limitations since spam datasets are typically difficult to obtain publicly and previous studies focused on spam email. Although existing studies, such as through the use of spam e-mail characterization and utilization of data mining techniques, there are limitations that influence is limited to high spam detection techniques using a single word character. In this paper, we reveal the characteristics of the spam SMS based on experiment and analysis from different perspectives and propose coward analysis based spam SMS detection scheme with a publicly disclosed spam SMS from the University of Singapore. With the extensive performance evaluations, we show false positive and false negative of the proposed method is less than 2%.

본 논문에서는 컬러코드를 이용하여 증강현실 시스템에 사용 가능한 태그를 탐지하는 알고리즘을 설계하고 차단 현상에 강인한 알고리즘을 제안하였다. 기존의 ARToolkit에서 태그의 일부분이 사용자 또는 다른 물체에 의해 가려지게 될 경우 증강되었던 객체가 순간 사라져 버리는 불안정성 (Instability) 문제를 해결하기 위한 방법에 초점을 맞춘다. 불안정성의 문제는 이미지 안에 태그가 존재하지만 해당하는 객체를 증강시키지 못하는 False Negative 에러와 태그가 존재하지 않는 곳에 잘못된 객체를 증강시키는 False Positive 에러로 분류 될 수 있다. 제안된 탐지 알고리즘으로 특정 컬러 영역을 분리하여 모서리 여부를 판별하고 모서리인 경우 가려진 꼭지점의 위치를 추출하여 태그가 차단에 의하여 가려졌을 때에도 객체를 안정적으로 증강시킬 수 있다. 기존 AR 시스템들의 태그를 가지고 Daylight 65, Illuminant A. CWF, TL84의 4가지의 표준 조명하에 컬러코드 4종류, ARToolkit 태그 4개, ARTag 4개를 이용하여 실험을 진행하여 차단 현상이 발생하면 전혀 객체를 증강시킬 수 없었던 ARToolkit에서도 DayLight65의 경우 50%의 False Negative. False Positive rate을 보여 기존 증강현실 시스템에서 보였던 불안정성 문제를 개선하였다.

Hemangioma is the most common benign tumor of the liver, with a prevalence estimated as high as 7%. Tc-99m red blood cell (RBC) hepatic blood pool scan with single photon omission computed tomography (SPECT) imaging is extremely useful for the confirmation or exclusion of hepatic hemangiomas. The classic finding of absent or decreased perfusion and increased blood pooling ("perfusion/blood pool mismatch") is the key diagnostic element in the diagnosis of hemangiomas. The combination of early arterial flow and delayed blood pooling ("perfusion/blood pool match") is shown uncommonly. In giant hemangioma, filling with radioactivity appears first in the periphery, with progressive central fill-in on sequential RBC blood pool scan. However, the reverse filling pattern, which begins first in the center with progressive peripheral filling, is also rarely seen. Studies with false-positive blood pooling have been reported infrequently in nonhemangiomas, including hemangiosarcoma, hepatocellular carcinoma, hepatic adenoma, and metastatic carcinomas (adenocarcinoma of the colon, small cell carcinoma of the lung, neruroendocrine carcinoma). False-negative results have been also reported rarely except for small hemagniomas that are below the limits of spatial resolution of gamma camera.
