A virtual reality technology for multipurpose numerical simulation is developed to reproduce and investigate a variety of ocean environmental problems in a 3D Numerical Wave Tank(NWT). The governing equations for solving incompressible fluid motion are Navier-Stokes equation and continuity equation. The Marker-Density function technique is adopted to implement the fully nonlinear freesurface kinematic condition. The marine environmental situations, i.e., waves, currents, etc., are reproduced by use of multi-segmented wavemakers on the basis of the so-called ″snake-principle″. In this paper, some numerical reproduction techniques for regular, and irregular waves, multi-directional waves, Bull's-eye wave. wave-current, and solitary wave are presented, and a model test in motion with large amplitude of roll angle is conducted in the developed 3D-NWT, using a overlaid grid system.

In this paper, we propose a face recognition method using a neuro-fuzzy algorithm. In the preprocessing step, we extract the face part from the background image by tracking face boundaries. Then based on the a priori knowledge of human faces we extract the features such as widths of eyes and mouth, and distances from eye to nose and nose to mouth. In the recognition step. We use a neuro-fuzzy algorithm that employs a fuzzy membership function and modified error backpropagation algorithm. The former absorbs the variation of feature values and the latter shows good learning efficiency. Computer simulation results with 20 persons show that the proposed method gives higher recognition rate than the conventional ones.

Once refractive error of the eye was fully corrected. Polarization Test was used to investigate binocular vision function. As the results of phoria measurement of Korean adults for 53males and 59 females, orthophoria in 27.68%, esophoria in 12.50%, exophoria in 48.21%, verical phoria in 3.75%, esophoria(+verical phoria) in 2.68%, and exophoria(+vertical phoria) in 5.36%, respectively. Horizontal phoria is below $3{\Delta}$ mostly and verical phoria is below $1{\Delta}$.

Objective : We investigated the effects of BOM Gunbisoyeom-tang(Jianbixiaoyan-tang) Gamibang having prescribed clinically to patients with perennial allergic rhinitis. Methods : We prescribed BOM Gunbisoyeom-tang(Jianbixiaoyan-tang) Gamibang for 1 month to 77 patients visiting to KimKiJoon Orentalclinic BOM from January 1 to December 31, 2008 with perennial allergic rhinitis and analysised the questionnaire(symptom severity assessment) before and after treatment. Results : BOM Gunbisoyeom-tang(Jianbixiaoyan-tang) Gamibang improved significantly all nosal symptoms(sneezing, runny nose, congestion, itchy nose and postnasal drip), some non-nasal symptoms(eye and throat symptoms, headache and mental function) except chromic cough and ear symptoms and quality of life. Conclusion : BOM Gunbisoyeom-tang(Jianbixiaoyan-tang) Gamibang cured effectively patients with perennial allergic rhinitis by 1 month treatment but not perfectly. So further studies are needed for treatment duration and changes of pathological index before and after treatment.

The ability of a dentist to select and communicate an acceptable shade match to a dental laboratory may be the most important factor in esthetic restorative dentistry. However, shade matching is a very complex situation. In this study, an attempt was made to compare and evaluate the conventional visual assessment and colorimetric analysis in clinical shade matching. 20 patients were selected and their maxillary central incisors shade were measured by Vita classic shade guide, using $Shadepilot^{TM}$ and ShadeEye $NCC^{(R)}$. The results indicate that there is much variation in the shade selection by visual and instrumental methods.

This paper describes the design and implementation of the kWebAnywhere system based on WebAnywhere, which assists people with severely diminished eye sight and the blind people to access Internet information through Web interfaces. The WebAnywhere is a server-based web reader which reads aloud the web contents using TTS(text-to-speech) technology on the Internet without installing any software on the client's system. The system can be used in general web browsers using a built-in audio function, for blind users who are unable to afford to use a screen reader and for web developers to design web accessibility. However, the WebAnywhere is limited to supporting only a single language and cannot be applied to Korean web contents directly. Thus, in this paper, we modified the WebAnywhere to serve multiple language contents written in both English and Korean texts. The modified WebAnywhere system is called kWebAnywhere to differentiate it with the original system. The kWebAnywhere system is modified to support the Korean TTS system, VoiceText$^{TM}$, and to include user interface to control the parameters of the TTS system. Because the VoiceText$^{TM}$ system does not support the Festival API used in the WebAnywhere, we developed the Festival Wrapper to transform the VoiceText$^{TM}$'s private APIs to the Festival APIs in order to communicate with the WebAnywhere engine. We expect that the developed system can help people with severely diminished eye sight and the blind people to access the internet contents easily.

In this study, heart rate through ECG R-R intervals using the methods about how to automatically extract studied. Heart rate as measured by the naked eye, using the 2-order differential equations to extract heart rate, using self-correlation function to extract the heart rate was compared contemplate. To verify its efficacy and validity in practical applications, these method has been applied to MIT/BIH database. Based on this, making a ECG meter automatic heart rate measurements, and our ECG meter was compared with the existing ICU.

본 논문에서는 단일광자방출 전산화 단층촬영영사(SPECT)을 이용하여 심근의 기능을 보다 쉽고 정확하게 평가하기 위해 반자동 분할 및 정량적 데이터를 시각화하는 인터페이스를 구현하였다. 먼저 반자동 분할에서는 환자영상에서 보여지듯이 심근 기능이 저하되어 부분적으로 심근이 불연속적으로 나타나는 영상에서도 내.외벽의 외각을 연속성을 가지고 견고하게 분리할 수 있도록 사용자가 간단히 조작할 수 있는 반자동 분리 인터페이스를 구현하였다. 또한 내.외벽으로 분리된 외곽선들을 이용하여 측정한 지역적 모션 데이터를 사용자가 보다 이해하기 쉽도록 Bull's eye 그래프를 이용하여 가시화하였다. 본 논문에서 구현한 반자동 분할 및 정량적 데이터의 시각화 인터페이스는 환자의 심근에 대한 기능 영상처럼 분석이 어려운 영상에서도 보다 견고하고 정확한 평가를 할 수 있도록 해준다.

본 연구의 목적은 정상성인 대상자에게 안구운동 후 인지능력에 어떠한 영향을 미치는지 알아보고자 하였다. 20명의 정상성인을 대상으로 단속성 안구운동군을 설정하였다. 모든 대상자는 사전 사후에 인지기능을 측정하였다. 연구 결과 군내 유의한 변화가 나타났다. 단속성 안구운동이 인지능력을 향상 시키는데 영향을 줄 수 있다고 판단된다.
