L밴드 ALOS SAR 자료를 활용하여 우리나라 동해 연안해역의 해상풍을 산출하고 오차의 특성을 분석하였다. 그 동안 인공위성 산란계를 이용한 해상풍 산출이 본질적으로 불가능하였던 연안 해역에 대하여 SAR 자료로부터 고해상도 해상풍을 산출할 수 있었다. 산출된 SAR 바람을 해양 부이 자료와 비교한 결과 0.67 m/s의 작은 오차로 잘 일치함을 보여주었다. 서로 다른 L밴드 ALOS PALSAR GMF 2007 모델과 2009 모델로 산출된 해상풍을 인공위성 산란계 해상풍과 비교한 결과, 풍속과 풍향 각각 2.16 m/s와 $19.24^{\circ}$, 3.62 m/s와 $28.02^{\circ}$의 제곱평균근오차를 보이며, 인공위성 산란계의 기대 오차보다 다소 큰 경향을 나타냈다. 또한 산출된 L밴드 SAR 바람장은 풍향과 입사각에 대하여 특징적인 의존성을 보였다. L밴드 GMF 2007 모델은 $21^{\circ}$ 보다 작은 입사각에 대하여 큰 오차를 보인 반면, L밴드 GMF 2009 모델은 입사각에 대한 효과를 선형함수가 아니라 이차함수로 고려하여 주었기 때문에 작은 입사각 범위에서 풍속 오차가 6.8 m/s에서 1.14 m/s로 크게 감소하는 결과를 보였다. 본 연구는 L밴드 SAR 바람장의 다양한 활용을 위해서는 풍향과 입사각 효과, 그리고 다른 잠재적인 오차의 요인을 집중적으로 연구하여야 함을 강조하였다.

For the last few decades, many studies have tried to explore and unveil venture companies' success factors and unique features in order to identify the sources of such companies' competitive advantages over their rivals. Such venture companies have shown tendency to give high returns for investors generally making the best use of information technology. For this reason, many venture companies are keen on attracting avid investors' attention. Investors generally make their investment decisions by carefully examining the evaluation criteria of the alternatives. To them, credit rating information provided by international rating agencies, such as Standard and Poor's, Moody's and Fitch is crucial source as to such pivotal concerns as companies stability, growth, and risk status. But these types of information are generated only for the companies issuing corporate bonds, not venture companies. Therefore, this study proposes a method for evaluating venture businesses by presenting our recent empirical results using financial data of Korean venture companies listed on KOSDAQ in Korea exchange. In addition, this paper used multi-class SVM for the prediction of DEA-based efficiency rating for venture businesses, which was derived from our proposed method. Our approach sheds light on ways to locate efficient companies generating high level of profits. Above all, in determining effective ways to evaluate a venture firm's efficiency, it is important to understand the major contributing factors of such efficiency. Therefore, this paper is constructed on the basis of following two ideas to classify which companies are more efficient venture companies: i) making DEA based multi-class rating for sample companies and ii) developing multi-class SVM-based efficiency prediction model for classifying all companies. First, the Data Envelopment Analysis(DEA) is a non-parametric multiple input-output efficiency technique that measures the relative efficiency of decision making units(DMUs) using a linear programming based model. It is non-parametric because it requires no assumption on the shape or parameters of the underlying production function. DEA has been already widely applied for evaluating the relative efficiency of DMUs. Recently, a number of DEA based studies have evaluated the efficiency of various types of companies, such as internet companies and venture companies. It has been also applied to corporate credit ratings. In this study we utilized DEA for sorting venture companies by efficiency based ratings. The Support Vector Machine(SVM), on the other hand, is a popular technique for solving data classification problems. In this paper, we employed SVM to classify the efficiency ratings in IT venture companies according to the results of DEA. The SVM method was first developed by Vapnik (1995). As one of many machine learning techniques, SVM is based on a statistical theory. Thus far, the method has shown good performances especially in generalizing capacity in classification tasks, resulting in numerous applications in many areas of business, SVM is basically the algorithm that finds the maximum margin hyperplane, which is the maximum separation between classes. According to this method, support vectors are the closest to the maximum margin hyperplane. If it is impossible to classify, we can use the kernel function. In the case of nonlinear class boundaries, we can transform the inputs into a high-dimensional feature space, This is the original input space and is mapped into a high-dimensional dot-product space. Many studies applied SVM to the prediction of bankruptcy, the forecast a financial time series, and the problem of estimating credit rating, In this study we employed SVM for developing data mining-based efficiency prediction model. We used the Gaussian radial function as a kernel function of SVM. In multi-class SVM, we adopted one-against-one approach between binary classification method and two all-together methods, proposed by Weston and Watkins(1999) and Crammer and Singer(2000), respectively. In this research, we used corporate information of 154 companies listed on KOSDAQ market in Korea exchange. We obtained companies' financial information of 2005 from the KIS(Korea Information Service, Inc.). Using this data, we made multi-class rating with DEA efficiency and built multi-class prediction model based data mining. Among three manners of multi-classification, the hit ratio of the Weston and Watkins method is the best in the test data set. In multi classification problems as efficiency ratings of venture business, it is very useful for investors to know the class with errors, one class difference, when it is difficult to find out the accurate class in the actual market. So we presented accuracy results within 1-class errors, and the Weston and Watkins method showed 85.7% accuracy in our test samples. We conclude that the DEA based multi-class approach in venture business generates more information than the binary classification problem, notwithstanding its efficiency level. We believe this model can help investors in decision making as it provides a reliably tool to evaluate venture companies in the financial domain. For the future research, we perceive the need to enhance such areas as the variable selection process, the parameter selection of kernel function, the generalization, and the sample size of multi-class.

최근 3차원 영상 콘텐츠와 디스플레이의 증가에 따라 지상파 방송사들은 스테레오스코픽 3차원 텔레비전(3DTV) 방송을 위한 준비를 시작하고 있다. 하지만 현재 지상파 방송사들이 비디오 전송을 위하여 사용하고 있는 ATSC 방송규격의 약 18Mbps 대역폭 제한 내에서 는 고화질의 스테레오스코픽 영상을 전송하는 데 한계가 있다. 따라서 보다 고화질의 3D 영상 방송 서비스를 제공하는 동시에, 기존 2DTV 시청자를 위한 호환성을 유지하기 위하여 좌영상은 현재 지상파 방송에서 채택하고 있는 MPEG-2 기반, 그리고 우영상은 보다 압축 효율이 높은 H.264/AVC 기반의 비디오 압축 및 전송 시스템이 고려되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 지상파 3DTV 방송 조건 하에서 이종 부호화기로부터 산출되는 비트스트림의 양을 대역폭 제한에 맞게 조절하는 합동 비트율 제어 방법을 제안한다. 제안하는 합동 비트율 제어 방법은 H.264/AVC의 비트율 제어 방법인 이차 율-양자화 모델(quadratic rate-quantization model)을 MPEG-2 부호화 과정 내에 구현하여 압축된 두 비디오 비트스트림의 합이 대역폭 조건을 충족시키면서 화질왜곡을 최소화하는 양자화계수를 계산하도록 설계되었다. 또한 시청자의 시각적 피로도가 양안 영상의 화질 차이와 관계가 있다는 가정 하에 좌영상과 우영상의 화질의 차이를 일정하게 유지되도록 하는 제약식을 최적화 문제에 추가하여 양자화계수를 계산하였다. 실험결과 제안한 지상파 스테레오스코픽 3DTV를 위한 합동 비트율 제어 알고리듬은 목표 비트율을 맞추는 동시에, MPEG-2 및 H.264/AVC의 기존 비트율 제어 알고리듬 방법에 비하여 좌/우 영상의 평균 화질 합을 약 2.02% 향상시켰고, 화질 절대차의 평균은 약 77.6%, 화질차의 분산은 약 74.38% 감소시키는 성능을 보였다.

본 수치해석연구에서는 국제공동연구프로젝트 DECOVALEX2019의 Task B의 일환으로 PFC3D를 기반으로한 수리역학연계모델을 개발하여 스위스 Mont Terri 지하연구시설에서 수행된 단층의 유체주입으로 인한 슬립시험을 모사하였다. 이를통해, 개발한 PFC3D 수리역학연계모델이 가진 한계점과 향후 보완할 점을 검토하고자 하였다. PFC3D를 기반으로한 3차원 입자결합모델 내 공극-유동통로모델을 생성하였으며 이를 사용하여 Mont Terri Step 2 단층내 유체주입실험을 모사하였다. 모델링결과 단층대를 따라 주입유체의 유동에 의한 단층대의 변형을 확인하였지만, 관측정에서의 시간에 따른 수압변화는 현장측정치와 부분적으로 일치하는 경향을 확인하였다. 현장측정 관측수압은 초기 유체주입 압력증가에 거의 변화를 보이지 않고 주입수압이 최대치에 도달할때쯤 급격한 증가를 보이는반면, 모델링에서는 주입압력이 증가함에 따라 관측수압도 부드럽게 증가하는 경향을 보였다. 이러한 부분적으로 일치하는 결과의 원인으로는 Mont Terri 현장의 단층을 모사하는 방법에 기인하는 것으로 판단하다. PFC3D에서는 단층을 손상대와 코어균열의 조합으로 모사하였고 단층대의 두께가 약 2 m로 주입유체가 단층대를 통해 유동하도록 모사하였기에 현장에서의 주입유체의 단층내 유동보다 그 유동범위가 크게 모사되었다고 판단한다. 또한, 현장단층에서와 같이 단층내부에 존재하는 충진물질로 인해 단층내 수리유동이 제한되어 국부적으로 과잉공급수압이 형성될 수 있는 기재를 모사하지 못한 점 또한 모델링 결과와 현장측정결과가 부분적으로 일치하는 원인일 수 있다. 단층변형의 경우는 모델링결과와 현장측정결과 유사한 수준으로 일치하는 결과를 확인하였다. 수치모델을 변형하여 단층대의 두께를 감소시키고 단층내 충진 물질의 비균질적인분포를 모사할 수 있는 방법론에 대한 후속 연구를 통해 PFC3D 수리역학연계모델의 유체주입으로 인한 단층활성화 연구로의 적용성을 향상시키는 것을 제안하고 한다.

본 논문에서는 구형 빔 패턴 형성을 위한 다층 이차원 원형 도체 배열을 갖는 새로운 방사 구조를 제안하였다. 새로운 방사 구조는 방사 원형 도파관 위에 유한하게 적층된 원형 도체 배열 소자들이 무한적, 주기적 평면 배열 구조를 갖는다. 이론적 해석은 rigid full-wave 해석 방법으로 배열 구조의 각 영역에서의 전자장에 대한 모드 전개식과 원형 도체상의 전류에 대한 모드 전개식에 바탕을 두고 상세히 수행되었으며, 함수의 직교성, 모드 정합 방법, 경계조건 그리고 Galerkin 방법을 사용하여 선형 대수 방정식 시스템을 유도하였다. 또한, Gauss 소거법을 사용하여 배열 특성 계산에 필요한 미지의 진폭 계수들을 얻었다. 제안된 알고리듬은 Ka대역에서 $\pm$20$^{\circ}$의 빔 폭을 갖는 구형 빔 패턴 형성을 위한 배열 설계에 사용되었으며, 일반적인 응용을 위해 파장으로 정규화된 최적화 설계 변수들을 제시하였다. 시뮬레이션 결과와 실험 결과들을 서로 비교하기 위해, 대칭적으로 19개의 방사 소자를 갖는 Ka 대역 실험 시제품을 제작하였다. 방사 원형 도파관 개구면 위에 적층된 원형 도체 배열 구조는 얇은 필름상에 이온-빔 증착 방법을 사용하여 구현되었다. 계산된 단위소자 패턴들과 시제품의 측정된 단위소자 패턴들은 빔 스캔 범위 내에서 거의 일치함을 보여주었으며, 사이드 로브 레벨과 그레이팅 로브 레벨에 대한 결과 분석도 이루어졌다 또한, 정 방향에서 다층 원형 도체 구조에 의해 생길 수 있는 blindness 현상에 대하여 언급하였다. 제작된 시제품의 입력 VSWR은 1.14 보다 작았으며, 29.0 GHz, 29.5 GHz 그리고 30 GHz에서 측정된 이득은 각각 10.2 dB, 10.0 dB 그리고 10.7 dB 였다. 실험 및 시뮬레이션 결과들은 제안된 다층 원형 도체 배열 구조가 효율적인 구형 빔 패턴을 형성할 수 있음을 보여 주었다.능성을 시도하였고, 그 결과는 다음과 같다. 1. Cholesterol을 제거한 cheese의 제조에서 최적조건은 균질압력 1200psi(70kg$cm^2$), 균질온도 $70^{\circ}$, $\beta$-cyclodextrin 첨가량 2%였으며, 이때 우유의 cholesterol의 제거율이 86.05%로 가장 높게 나타났다. 2. Cholesterol을 제거한 cheese들의 수율은 모두 12.53%(control 10.54%) 이상으로 균질 처리가 cheese의 수율을 18.88%이상 향상시키는 것으로 나타났다. 3. 유지방 함량 23.80%인 control 치즈의 cholesterol 함량은 81.47mg/100g이었고, 균질압력 1200psi(91kg/$cm^2$)에 $\beta$-cyclodextrin 2%를 첨가한 cheese에서는 cholesterol 함량이 20.15mg/100g으로 cholesterol 제거율이 75.27%로 가장 높게 나타났다. 4. Meltability는 균질압력 1200psi(91kg/$cm^2$)에 $\beta$-cyclodextrin 1과 2%로 처리한 치즈에서 2.25cm(control 3.34cm)로 가장 낮았으며, 균질압력이 증가할수록 meltability가 감소하여 치즈의 품질을 저하시켰다. 5. Control 치즈의 stretchability는 30cm 이상 늘어나 가장 양호한 수치인 5점을 나타낸 반면, cholesterol을 제거한 cheese에서는 5~10cm 사이를 나타내어 2점으로 stretchability가 저하된 것을 볼 수 있었다. 6. Oiling off는 균질압력 1200psi(91kg/$cm^2$)에 $\beta$-cyclodextrin 1과 2%로 처리한 치즈에서

목적 : 비 상업용 3차원 컴퓨터치료계획시스템인 Plunc의 구축 사례를 소개하고 이의 임상적용 가능성에 대하여 검증하고자 한다. 대상 및 방법 : 미국 North Carolina 대학에서 개발된 3차원 치료계획시스템인 Plunc의 소스코드를 제공받아, PC용 Unix인 Linux 환경의 Pentium Pro 200MHz(128MB RAM, Millennium VGA)에서 설치하였다. 본과의 6MV 광자선(Siemens MXE 6740)에 대한 출력인자, 최대산란비, 최대산란인자, 쐐기의 모양 및 감쇄인자 등의 빔데이터를 입력한 후, 일반적인 치료조건인 loom 깊이의 회전중심점에서의 심부선량백분율, 선량측면도, oblique 입사빔 및 공기간격 하에서의 선량계산 결과를 물팬톰에서의 측정치와 비교, 분석하였다. 결과 : Plunc는 원래 CT 영상데이터를 이용한 모의치료기로써 개발되어, 빔 설계가 매우 편리하도록 사용자 인터페이스가 구성되어 있으며, BEV, DRR 및 영상합성 등의 기능을 갖추고 있다. 선량계산은 10초 정도가 소요되는 3차원 선량분포나 선량체적히스토그람을 제외하고는 거의 실시간으로 실행되었다. Plunc에 의한 선량 계산 값을 측정값과 비교한 결과, 심부선량백분율의 경우, 선량증가영역을 제외하고는 $1\%$이내에서 일치하였다. 또한, 선량측면도의 경우, $5\%$가량의 선량감소를 나타내는 치료영역 크기 밖의 저선량 영역을 제외하고는 $2\%$ 이내에서 일치하였다. Oblique 입사 빔의 경우, 빔 중심축을 포함하는 평면상의 선량분포가 선량이 $30\%$ 이하인 영역을 제외하고는 비교적 잘 일치하였다. 공기간격을 통과한 빔에 대한 선량측면도의 비교 결과, 중심 축에서의 선량 값에 대해 $5\%$의 오차를 보였다. 결론 : Plunc의 광자선량계산의 정밀도는 일반적인 치료조건하에서 약 $2-5\%$ 내외의 오차로써, 측정치에 대한 보정에 근거한 알고리즘을 사용하는 일반 치료계획시스템과 비슷한 수준이라 사료된다. 현재로서는 전자선에 대한 선량계산이 불가능하기 때문에 완전한 형태의 치료계획시스템이 되기 위해서는 향후, 전자선에 대한 계산모듈의 개발과 광자선 선량계산 또한 보다 정밀한 선량계산이 가능한 컨벌루션 방법과 같은 3차원 선량계산모듈의 개발도 필요하다. Plunc는 상업용 3차원 치료계획 시스템의 사용이 현실적으로 어려운 여건의 병원에서 2차원 치료계획시스템과 상호 보완적으로 사용한다면 2차원 치료계획시스템이 갖는 많은 제약을 극복할 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

본 연구는 천리안위성 2A호의 Level 1B (L1B) 정보를 사용해 지상기온을 추정하기 위한 심층신경망(deep neural network, DNN) 기법을 적용하고 검증을 실시하였다. 지상기온은 지면으로부터 1.5 m 높이의 대기온도로 일상생활뿐만 아니라 폭염이나 한파와 같은 이슈에 밀접한 관련을 갖는다. 지상기온은 지표면 온도와 대기의 열 교환에 의해 결정되므로 위성으로부터 산출된 지표면 온도(land surface temperature, LST)를 이용한 지상기온 추정 연구가 활발하였다. 하지만 천리안위성 2A호 산출물 LST는 Level 2 정보로 구름영향이 없는 픽셀만 산출되는 한계가 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 Advanced Meteorological Imager 센서에서 측정된 원시데이터에 오직 복사와 위치보정을 마친 L1B 정보를 사용해 지상기온을 추정하기 위한 DNN 모델을 제시하고 그 성능을 가늠하기 위해 위성 LST와 지상관측 기온 사이의 선형회귀모델을 기준모델로 사용하였다. 연구기간은 2020년부터 2022년까지 3년으로 평가기간 2022년을 제외한 기간은 훈련기간으로 설정했다. 평가지표는 기상청의 종관기상관측소에서 정시에 관측된 기온정보로 평균 제곱근 오차를 사용하였다. 관측지점에서 추출된 픽셀 중 손실된 픽셀의 비율은 LST는 57.91%, L1B는 1.63%를 보였으며 LST의 비율이 낮은 이유는 구름의 영향 때문이다. 제안한 DNN의 구조는 16개 L1B 자료와 태양정보를 입력 받는 층과 은닉층 4개, 지상기온 1개를 출력하는 층으로 구성하였다. 연구결과 구름의 영향이 없는 경우 DNN 모델이 root mean square error (RMSE) 2.22℃로 기준모델의 RMSE 3.55℃ 보다 낮은 오차를 보였고, 흐린 조건을 포함한 총 RMSE는 3.34℃를 나타내면서 구름의 영향을 제거할 수 있을 것으로 보였다. 하지만 계절과 시간에 따른 분석결과 여름과 겨울철에 모델의 결정계수가 각각 0.51과 0.42로 매우 낮게 나타났고 일 변동의 분산이 0.11과 0.21로 나타났다. 가시채널을 고려해 태양 위치정보를 추가한 결과에서 결정계수가 0.67과 0.61로 개선되었고 시간에 따른 일 변동의 분산도 0.03과 0.1로 감소하면서 모든 계절과 시간대에 더 일반화된 모델을 생성할 수 있었다.

The wall shear stress in the vicinity of end-to end anastomoses under steady flow conditions was measured using a flush-mounted hot-film anemometer(FMHFA) probe. The experimental measurements were in good agreement with numerical results except in flow with low Reynolds numbers. The wall shear stress increased proximal to the anastomosis in flow from the Penrose tubing (simulating an artery) to the PTFE: graft. In flow from the PTFE graft to the Penrose tubing, low wall shear stress was observed distal to the anastomosis. Abnormal distributions of wall shear stress in the vicinity of the anastomosis, resulting from the compliance mismatch between the graft and the host artery, might be an important factor of ANFH formation and the graft failure. The present study suggests a correlation between regions of the low wall shear stress and the development of anastomotic neointimal fibrous hyperplasia(ANPH) in end-to-end anastomoses. 30523 T00401030523 ^x Air pressure decay(APD) rate and ultrafiltration rate(UFR) tests were performed on new and saline rinsed dialyzers as well as those roused in patients several times. C-DAK 4000 (Cordis Dow) and CF IS-11 (Baxter Travenol) reused dialyzers obtained from the dialysis clinic were used in the present study. The new dialyzers exhibited a relatively flat APD, whereas saline rinsed and reused dialyzers showed considerable amount of decay. C-DAH dialyzers had a larger APD(11.70$\pm$1.32mmHg/min)compared to CF dialyzers(4.32$\pm$0.55mmHg/min)(p<0.05). However, there was no observable difference in the UFR between the two dialyzers. Neither APD nor UFR showed any significant increase with an increasing number of reuses for up to more than 20reuses. A substantial number of failures observed in APD(larger than 20mmHe/min)on the reused dialyzers(2 out of 40 CP and S out 26 C-DAK) were attributed to the Possible damage on the fibers. The CF 15-11 HFDs which failed APD test did not show changes in the UFR compared to normal dialyzers indicating that APD is a more sensitive test than UFR test to evaluate the integrity of the fibers. 30527 T00401030527 ^x For quantitative measurement of reflected light from a clinical diagnostic strip, a prototype old reflectance photometer was designed. The strip loader and cassette were made to obtain more accurate reflectance parameters. The strip was illuminated at 45˚c through optical fiber and the intensity of reflected light was determined at rectanguLat angle using a photodiode. The kubelka-munk coefficient and reflection optical density were determined ar four different wavelengths(500, 550, 570 and 610nm) for blood glucose strip. For higher concentration than 300mg/41 about glucose, a saturation state of abforbance was observed at 500, 550 and 570nm. The correlation between glucose concentration and parameters was the best at 610nm. 30535 T00401030535 ^x Radiation-induced fibrosarcoma tumors were grown on the flanks of C3H mice. The mice were divided into two groups. One group was injected with Photofrin II, intravenously (2.5mg/kg body weight). The other group received no Photofrin II. Mice from both groups were irradialed for approximately 15 minutes at 100, 300, or 500 mW/cm2 with the argon (488nm/514.5 nm), dye(628nm) and gold vapor (pulsed 628 nm) laser light. A photosensitizer behaved as an added absorber. Under our experimental conditions, the presence of Photolfrin II increased surface temperature by at least 40% and the temperature rise due to 300 mW/cm2 irradiation exceeded values for hyperthermia. Light and temperature distributions with depth were estimated by a computer model. The model demonstrated the influence of wavelength on the thermal process and proved to be a valuable tool to investigate internal temperature rise. 30536 T00401030536 ^x We investigated the structural geometry of thirty-eight Korean femurs. The purpose of this study is to identify major geometrical differences between Korean femurs 3nd others that we believe belong to Caucasians so that we would be able to get insights into the femoral component design that fits Asians including Koreans. We utilized computerized tomography (CT) images of femurs extracted from cadavers. The CT images were transformed into bitmap data by using a film scanner, and then analyzed by using a commercially available software called Image v.1.0 and a Macintosh IIci computer.The resulting data were compared with already published data. The major results show that the geometry of the Korean femurs is significantly different from that of Caucasians: (1) the anteversion angle and the canal flare index are greater by the amount of approximately 8˚ and 0.5, respectively, (2) the shape of the isthmus cross section is more round, and (3) the distance between the teaser trochanter and the proximal border of the isthmus is shelter by about 15 mm. The results suggested that the femoral component suitable for Asians should be different from the currently-used components designed and manufactured mostly by European or American companies. 30537 T00401030537 ^x It is well known that nonlinear propagation characteristics of the wave in the tissue may give very useful information for the medical diagnoisis. In this paper, a new method to detect nonlinear propagation characteristics of the internal vibration in the tissue for the low frequency mechanical vibration by using bispectral analysis is proposed. In the method, low frequency vibration of f0( = 100Hz) is applied on the surface of the object, and the waveform of the internal vibration x (t) is measured from Doppler frequency modulation of silmultaneously transmitted probing ultrasonic waves. Then, the bispectra of the signal x (t) at the frequencies (f0, f0) and (f0, 2f0) are calculated to estimate the nonlinear propagation characteristics as their magnitude ratio, w here since bispectrum is free from the gaussian additive noise we can get the value with high S/N. Basic experimental system is constructed by using 3.0 MHz probing ultrasonic waves and the several experiments are carried out for some phantoms. Results show the superiority of the proposed method to the conventional method using power spectrum and also its usefulness for the tissue characterization. 30541 T00401030541 ^x This paper describes the implementation of a computerized radial pulse diagnosis by aids of a clinical expert.

Then, we have got the characteristic parameters of radial pulse wave and also quantified that according to the method of Inyoung-Cheongu Comparison Radial Pulse Diagnosis. We defined the jugement standard of radial pulse diagnosis system and then we confirmed the possibility for realization of automatic radial pulse diagnosis in korean traditional medicine. 30545 T00401030545 ^x Microspheres are expected to be applied to biomedical areas such as solid-phase immunoassays, drug delivery systems, immunomagnetic cell separation. To synthesize microspheres for biomedical application, "two stage shot growth method" was developed. The uniformity ratio of synthesized microspheres was always smaller than 1.05. And the surface charge density (or the number of ionizable functional groups) of the microspheres synthesized by "two stage shot growth method" was 6~13 times higher than that of the microspheres synthesized by conventional seeded batch copolymerization. As a previous step for biomedical application, adsorption experiments of bovine albumin on microspheres were carried out under various conditions. The maximum adsorbed amount was obtained in the neighborhood of pH 4.5. Isoelectric point of bovine albumin is pH 5.0, so experimental result shows that it shifted to acid area. The adsorption isotherm was obtained, the plateau region was always reached at 2.Og/L (bulk concentration of bovine albumin).The effect of the kind and the amount of surface functional group was also examined. 30575 T00401030575 ^x A medical image workstation was developed using multimedia technique. The system based on PC-486DX was designed to acquire medical images produced by medical imaging instruments and related audio information, that is, doctors' reporting results. Input information was processed and analyzed, then the results were presented in the form of graph and animation. All the informations of the system were hierarchically related with the image as the apex. Processing and analysis algorithms were implemented so that the diagnostic accuracy could be improved. The diagnosed information can be transferred for patient diagnosis through LAN(local area network). 30592 T00401030592 ^x In the conventional infrared imaging system, complex infrared lens systems are usually used for directing collimated narrow infrared beams into the high speed 2-dimensional optic scanner. In this paper, a simple reflective infrared optic system with a 2-dimensional optic scanner is proposed for the realization of medical infrared thermography system. It has been experimentally proven that the intfrared thermography system composed of the proposed optic system has the temperature resolution of 0.1˚c under the spatial resolution of lmrad, the image matrix size of 256 X 240, and tile imaging time of 4 seconds. 30593 T00401030593 ^x In this paper, MIIS (Medical Image Information System) has been designed and implemented using INGRES RDBMS, which is based on a client/server architecture.

Trans-formation from temporal summation to two-dimensional mappings is formed by 4 nearest point inter-polaton method. Methods of representation of BEAM are two. One is dot density method which classify brain electrical potential 9 levels by dot density of gray levels and the other is colour method which classify brain electrical 12 levels by red-green colours. In this BEAM, instantaneous change and average energy distribution over any arbitrary time interval of brain electrical activity could be observed and analyzed easily. In the frequency domain, the distribution of energy spectrum of a special band can easily be distinguished normality and abnormality. 30608 T00401030608 ^x Laboratory information system (LIS) is a key tool to manage laboratory data in clinical pathology. Our department has developed an information system for routine hematology using down-sized computer system. We have used an IBM 486 compatible PC with 16MB main memory, 210 MB hard disk drive, 9 RS-232C port and 24 pin dot printer. The operating system and database management system were SCO UNIX and SCO foxbase, respectively. For program development, we used Xbase language provided by SCO foxbase. The C language was used for interface purpose. To make the system use friendly, pull-down menu was used. The system connected to our hospital information system via application program interface (API), so the information related to patient and request details is automatically transmitted to our computer. Our system interfaced with fwd complete blood count analyzers(Sysmex NE-8000 and Coulter STKS) for unidirectional data tansmission from analyzer to computer. The authors suggests that this system based on down-sized computer could provide a progressive approach to total LIS based on local area network, and the implemented system could serve as a model for other hospital's LIS for routine hematology. 30609 T00401030609 ^x To develop an artificial bone substitute that is gradually degraded and replaced by the regenerated natural bone, the authors designed a composite that is consisted of calcium phosphate and collagen. To use as the structural matrix of the composite, collagen was purified from human umbilical cord. The obtained collagen was treated by pepsin to remove telopeptides, and finally, the immune-free atelocollagen was produced: The cross linked atelocollagen was highly resistant to the collagenase induced collagenolysis. The cross linked collagen demonstrated an improved tensile strength. 30618 T00401030618 ^x This paper is a study on the design of adptive filter for QRS complex detection. We propose a simple adaptive algorithm to increase capability of noise cancelation in QRS complex detection with two stage adaptive filter. At the first stage, background noise is removed and at the next stage, only spectrum of QRS complex components is passed. Two adaptive filters can afford to keep track of the changes of both noise and QRS complex. Each adaptive filter consists of prediction error filter and FIR filter The impulse response of FIR filter uses coefficients of prediction error filter. The detection rates for 105 and 108 of MIT/BIH data base were 99.3% and 97.4% respectively. 30619 T00401030619 ^x To develop an artificial bone substitute that is gradually degraded and replaced by the regenerated natural bone, the authors designed and produced a composite that is consisted of calcium phosphate and collagen. Human umbilical cord origin pepsin treated type I atelocollagen was used as the structural matrix, by which sintered or non-sintered carbonate apatite was encapsulated to form an inorganic-organic composite. With cross linking atelocollagen by UV ray irradiation, the resistance to both compressive and tensile strength was increased. Collagen degradation by the collagenase induced collagenolysis was also decreased. 30620 T00401030620 ^x We have developed a monoleaflet polymer valve as an inexpensive and viable alternative, especially for short-term use in the ventricular assist device or total artificial heart. The frame and leaflet of the polymer valve were made from polyurethane, To evaluate the hemodynamic performance of the polymer valve a comparative study of flow dynamics past a polymer valve and a St. Jude Medical prosthetic valve under physiological pulsatile flow conditions in vitro was made. Comparisons between the valves were made on the transvalvular pressure drop, regurgitation volume and maximum valve opening area. The polymer valve showed smaller regurgitation volume and transvalvular pressure drop compared to the mechanical valve at higher heart rate. The results showed that the functional characteristics of the polymer valve compared favorably with those of the mechanical valve at higher heart rate. 30621 T00401030621 ^x Explosive evaporative removal process of biological tissue by absorption of a CW laser has been simulated by using gelatin and a multimode Nd:YAG laser. Because the point of maximun temperature of laser-irradiated gelatin exists below the surface due to surface cooling, evaporation at the boiling temperature is made explosively from below the surface. The important parameters of this process are the conduction loss to laser power absorption (defined as the conduction-to-laser power parameter, Nk), the convection heat transfer at the surface to conduction loss (defined as Bi), dimensionless extinction coefficient (defined as Br.), and dimensionless irradiation time (defined as Fo). Dependence of Fo on Nk and Bi has been observed by experiment, and the results have been compared with the numerical results obtained by solving a 2-dimensional conduction equation. Fo and explosion depth (from the surface to the point of maximun temperature) are increased when Nk and Bi are increased.To find out the minimum laser power for explosive evaporative removal process, steady state analysis has been also made. The limit of Nk to induce evaporative removal, which is proportional to the inverse of the laser power, has been obtained. 30622 T00401030622 ^x N1 and N2 gross neural action potentials were measured from the round window of the guinea pig cochlea at the onset of the acoustic stimuli. N1-N2 audiograms were made by means of regulating stimulant intensities in order to produce constant N1-N2 potentials as criteria for different input tone pip frequencies. The lowest threshold was measured with an input tone pip I5 dB SPL in intensity and 12 KHz in frequency when the animal was in normal physiological condition. The procedure of experimental measurements is explained in detail. This experimental approach is very useful for the investigation of the Cochlear function. Both noN1inear and active functions of the Cochlea can be monitored by N1-N2 audiograms. 30623 T00401030623 ^x In electrical impedance tomography(EIT), we use boundary current and voltage measurements toprovide the information about the cross-sectional distribution of electrical impedance or resistivity. One of the major problems in EIT has been the inaccessibility of internal voltage or current data in finding the internal impedance values. We propose a new image reconstruction method using internal current density data measured by NMR. We obtained a two-dimensional current density distribution within a phantom by processing the real and imaginary MR images from a 4.77 NMR machine. We implemented a resistivity mage reconstruction algorithm using the finite element method and sensitivity matrix. We presented computer simulation results of the mage reconstruction algorithm and furture direction of the research. 30624 T00401030624 ^x A new method of digital image analysis technique for discrimination of cancer cell was presented in this paper. The object image was the Thyroid eland cells image that was diagnosed as normal and abnormal (two types of abnormal: follicular neoplastic cell, and papillary neoplastic cell), respectively. By using the proposed region segmentation algorithm, the cells were segmented into nucleus. The 16 feature parameters were used to calculate the features of each nucleus. A9 a consequence of using dominant feature parameters method proposed in this paper, discrimination rate of 91.11% was obtained for Thyroid Gland cells. 30625 T00401030625 ^x An electrical stimulator was designed to induce locomotion for paraplegic patients caused by central nervous system injury. Optimal stimulus parameters, which can minimize muscle fatigue and can achieve effective muscle contraction were determined in slow and fast muscles in Sprague-Dawley rats. Stimulus patterns of our stimulator were designed to simulate electromyographic activity monitored during locomotion of normal subjects. Muscle types of the lower extremity were classified according to their mechanical property of contraction, which are slow muscle (msoleus m.) and fast muscle (medial gastrocneminus m., rectus femoris m., vastus lateralis m.). Optimal parameters of electrical stimulation for slow muscles were 20 Hz, 0.2 ms square pulse. For fast muscle, 40 Hz, 0.3 ms square pulse was optimal to produce repeated contraction. Higher stimulus intensity was required when synergistic muscles were stimulated simultaneously than when they were stimulated individually. Electrical stimulation for each muscle was designed to generate bipedal locomotion, so that individual muscles alternate contraction and relaxation to simulate stance and swing phases. Portable electrical stimulator with 16 channels built in microprocessor was constructed and applied to paraplegic patients due to lumbar cord injury. The electrical stimulator restored partially gait function in paraplegic patients. 30626 T00401030626 ^x Two-Dimensional modelling of the Cochlear biomechanics is presented in this paper. The Laplace partial differential equation which represents the fluid mechanics of the Cochlea has been transformed into two-dimensional electrical transmission line. The procedure of this transformation is explained in detail. The comparison between one and two dimensional models is also presented. This electrical modelling of the basilar membrane (BM) is clearly useful for the next approach to the further. Development of active elements which are essential in the producing of the sharp tuning of the BM. This paper shows that two-dimension model is qualitatively better than one-dimensional model both in amplitude and phase responses of the BM displacement. The present model is only for frequency response. However because the model is electrical, the two-dimensional transmission line model can be extended to time response without any difficult. 30627 T00401030627 ^x A method has been proposed for the fully automatic detection of left ventricular endocardial boundary in 2D short axis echocardiogram using geometric model. The procedure has the following three distinct stages. First, the initial center is estimated by the initial center estimation algorithm which is applied to decimated image. Second, the center estimation algorithm is applied to original image and then best-fit elliptic model estimation is processed. Third, best-fit boundary is detected by the cost function which is based on the best-fit elliptic model. The proposed method shows effective result without manual intervention by a human operator. 30628 T00401030628 ^x The intelligent trajectory control method that controls moving direction and average velocity for a prosthetic arm is proposed by pattern recognition and force estimations using EMG signals. Also, we propose the real time trajectory planning method which generates continuous accelleration paths using 3 stage linear filters to minimize the impact to human body induced by arm motions and to reduce the muscle fatigue. We use combination of MLP and fuzzy filter for pattern recognition to estimate the direction of a muscle and Hogan's method for the force estimation. EMG signals are acquired by using a amputation simulator and 2 dimensional joystick motion. The simulation results of proposed prosthetic arm control system using the EMf signals show that the arm is effectively followed the desired trajectory depended on estimated force and direction of muscle movements. 30638 T00401030638 ^x A new neural network architecture for the recognition of patterns from images is proposed, which is partially based on the results of physiological studies.
