Chest PA is the basic examination of radiographic imaging. Moreover, Chest PA's demands are constantly increasing because of the Increase in respiratory diseases. However, it is not meeting the demand due to problems such as a shortage of radiological technologist, sexual shame caused by patient contact, and the spread of infectious diseases. There have been many cases of using artificial intelligence to solve this problem. Therefore, the purpose of this research is to build an artificial intelligence dataset of Chest PA and to find a posture evaluation method. To construct the posture dataset, the posture image is acquired during actual and simulated examination and classified correct and incorrect posture of the patient. And to evaluate the artificial intelligence posture method, a posture estimation algorithm is used to preprocess the dataset and an artificial intelligence classification algorithm is applied. As a result, Chest PA posture dataset is validated with in over 95% accuracy in all artificial intelligence classification and the accuracy is improved through the Top-Down posture estimation algorithm AlphaPose and the classification InceptionV3 algorithm. Based on this, it will be possible to build a non-face-to-face automatic Chest PA examination system using artificial intelligence.

Objective: The aim of this systematic review was to investigate for effective strategies to improve home exercise program (HEP) adherence in vestibular rehabilitation (VR). Design: Systematic review. Methods: A systematic review was conducted to identify effective strategies used to improve HEP adherence of patients in VR. Six databases, Academic Search Premier, Cochrane Library, CINAHL, PUBMED, PsycINFO, and Web of Science were searched from their inception to December 31, 2015. The keywords used for search were 'home program', 'home intervention', 'compliance', 'adherence', 'vestibular rehabilitation', 'motion sickness', and 'motion sensitivity'. Results: A total of eight studies were selected to be included in the review. There was 95.2% agreement between the two reviewers who reviewed the studies using a quality assessment tool. The overall inter-rater agreement (${\kappa}$=0.73) showed good agreement between the reviewers. Strong evidence was identified for 3 major categories of effective HEP adherence strategies, 1) providing patient with written summary of HEP; 2) asking patient to maintain a record of HEP and symptoms; and 3) providing tele-rehabilitation in form of email and/or telephone support along with in person treatment sessions. Also, based on strong evidence, computerized technology was not found to be superior to other strategies for improving patients' HEP adherence in VR. Conclusions: The effective strategies for improving HEP in VR include written summary of exercise, maintenance of log of HEP and symptoms and tele-rehabilitation along with in person treatment sessions.

도시화 과정에서 도시의 생활폐기물 문제가 빠르게 증가되고 있고, 효과적이지 못한 생활폐기물 관리는 도시의 오염을 악화시키고 물리적인 환경오염과 경제적인 부분에서 극심한 문제들을 야기시킬 수 있다. 게다가 부피가 커서 관리하기 힘든 대형 생활폐기물들이 증가하여 도시 발전에도 방해가 된다. 생활폐기물을 처리하는데 있어 대형 생활폐기물 품목에 대해서는 요금을 청구하여 처리한다. 다양한 유형의 대형 생활폐기물을 수동으로 분류하는 것은 시간과 비용이 많이 든다. 그 결과 대형 생활폐기물을 자동으로 분류하는 시스템을 도입하는 것이 중요하다. 본 논문에서는 대형 생활폐기물 분류를 위한 시스템을 제안하며, 이 논문의 4 가지로 분류된다. 1) 높은 정확도와 강 분류(roust classification) 수행에 적합한 Convolution Neural Network(CNN) 모델 중 VGG-19, Inception-V3, ResNet50 의 정확도와 속도를 비교한다. 제안된 20 개의 클래스의 대형 생활폐기물의 데이터 셋(data set)에 대해 가장 높은 분류의 정확도는 86.19%이다. 2) 불균형 데이터 문제를 처리하기 Class Weight VGG-19(CW-VGG-19)와 Extreme Gradient Boosting VGG-19 두 가지 방법을 사용하였다. 3) 20 개의 클래스를 포함하는 데이터 셋을 수동으로 수집 및 검증하였으며 각 클래스의 컬러 이미지 수는 500 개 이상이다. 4) 딥 러닝(Deep Learning) 기반 모바일 애플리케이션을 개발하였다.

Internal pressure of vacuum interrupter (VI) is one of the most important parameters in VI operation and may increase due to the outgassing from the materials inside VI or gas permeation through metal flange or ceramic vessel. The increase of the pressure above a certain level leads to the failures of switching or insulation. Therefore, an effective pressure check of VI is essential and an analysis of partial discharge (PD) characteristics is an effective monitoring method to identify the degree of the internal pressure of VI. This paper introduces a research work on monitoring the internal pressure of VI by analyzing PDs which were measured using a capacitive PD coupler. The authors have developed cost effective capacitive coupler based on the ceramic material that has an excellent insulation properties and the main component of the capacitive coupler is made by SrTiO3. Detectable internal pressure range and distinguishability of the internal pressure of VI were investigated. From the PD tests results, the internal pressure range, from $10^{-2}$ torr to 500 torr, can be monitored by PD measurements using the capacitive coupler and PD inception voltage (PDIV) follows the Paschen's law. In addition, rise time of PD pulse at 13.2kV decreases with the increase of the internal pressure of VI.

The purpose of this study is to classify TIFF images, PNG images, and JPEG images using deep learning, and to compare the accuracy by verifying the classification performance. The TIFF, PNG, and JPEG images converted from chest X-ray DICOM images were applied to five deep neural network models performed in image recognition and classification to compare classification performance. The data consisted of a total of 4,000 X-ray images, which were converted from DICOM images into 16-bit TIFF images and 8-bit PNG and JPEG images. The learning models are CNN models - VGG16, ResNet50, InceptionV3, DenseNet121, and EfficientNetB0. The accuracy of the five convolutional neural network models of TIFF images is 99.86%, 99.86%, 99.99%, 100%, and 99.89%. The accuracy of PNG images is 99.88%, 100%, 99.97%, 99.87%, and 100%. The accuracy of JPEG images is 100%, 100%, 99.96%, 99.89%, and 100%. Validation of classification performance using test data showed 100% in accuracy, precision, recall and F1 score. Our classification results show that when DICOM images are converted to TIFF, PNG, and JPEG images and learned through preprocessing, the learning works well in all formats. In medical imaging research using deep learning, the classification performance is not affected by converting DICOM images into any format.

Whole body bone scan is the most frequently performed nuclear medicine imaging to evaluate bone metastasis in cancer patients. We evaluated the performance of a VGG16-based transfer learning classifier for bone scan images in which metastatic bone lesion was present. A total of 1,000 bone scans in 1,000 cancer patients (500 patients with bone metastasis, 500 patients without bone metastasis) were evaluated. Bone scans were labeled with abnormal/normal for bone metastasis using medical reports and image review. Subsequently, gradient-weighted class activation maps (Grad-CAMs) were generated for explainable AI. The proposed model showed AUROC 0.96 and F1-Score 0.90, indicating that it outperforms to VGG16, ResNet50, Xception, DenseNet121 and InceptionV3. Grad-CAM visualized that the proposed model focuses on hot uptakes, which are indicating active bone lesions, for classification of whole body bone scan images with bone metastases.

벼의 출수기를 추정하는 것은 농업생산성과 관련된 중요한 과정 중 하나이지만 세계적인 이상기후의 증가로 벼의 출수기를 추정하는 것이 어려워지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 CNN 분류모델을 사용하여 다양한 영상데이터에서 벼의 출수기를 추정하려고 시도하였다. 드론과 타워형 영상관측장치 그리고 일반 RGB 카메라로 촬영된 직하방과 경사각 영상을 수집하였다. 수집한 영상은 CNN 모델의 입력데이터로 사용하기 위해서 전처리를 진행하였고, 사용된 CNN 아키텍처는 이미지 분류 모델에서 일반적으로 사용되는 ResNet50, InceptionV3 그리고 VGG19 를 사용하였다. 각각의 아키텍처는 모델의 종류, 영상의 유형과 관계없이 0.98 이상의 정확도를 나타내었다. 또한 CNN 분류 모델이 영상의 어떤 특징을 보고 분류하였는지 시각적으로 확인하기 위해서 Grad-CAM 을 사용하였다. Grad-CAM 결과 CNN 분류 모델은 벼의 출수를 이삭의 형태에 높은 가중치를 두어 분류 하는 것을 확인하였다. 다음으로 작성된 모델이 실제 논 포장 모니터링 이미지에서 벼의 출수기를 정확하게 추정하는지 확인하였다. 각각 다른 지역 4 개의 벼 포장에서 벼의 출수기를 약 하루정도의 차이로 추정하는 것을 확인하였다. 이 방법을 통해서 다양한 논 포장의 모니터링 이미지를 활용하여 자동적이고 정량적으로 벼의 출수기를 추정 할 수 있다고 판단된다.
