In the field of control technology, too, it is about time that the students should free themseleves from the paradigm of Newtonian mechanics. Otherwise, they might fail to grasp the essence of control. Now, let us consider the essence of control. Control consists of manipulating a particular object, matter, energy of environment on the basis of certain medium information. (measurement data, force, etc.) So, we shall look into the methods of manipulation. Here, we consider natural control, constraining control, and hybrid control as basic methods of manipulation. In this paper, we would like to put forward the daring proposal that it's called a Holon-type hybrid control system. It is intended to control a plat with complicated or unknown characteristics where a conventional control theory is not easy to apply. A prototype system has been developed and applied to a real plant. The control system is a multi-layer system. Each layer includes different control input. The important features of the system are as follows: 1) Each layer behaves autonomously and also cooperates with each other to optimize the whole plant. 2) The controller optimizes a plant without mathematical models when these models are not easy to obtain.

Over the past few decades, changes in patterns of behavior (e.g., diet, smoking, alcohol consumption, and physical activity) have led to major changes in health status, characterized by increases in obesity, Type II diabetes mellitus, cardiovascular disease, and some cancers. This epidemiologic transition is largely the result of rapid increases in immigration to developed countries and rural-urban migration within developing countries, which is usually accompanied by environmental and lifestyle changes. In particular, adoption of “Western” dietary patterns, which tend to be high in fat and low in fruits and vegetables, is of concern since diet is a potent contributor to chronic disease risk. However, until recently, the process by which immigrants and rural-urban migrants adopt the dietary practices predominant in their new environments, known as dietary acculturation, has received very little research attention. Dietary acculturation is multidimensional, dynamic, and complex, and varies considerably depending on a variety of personal, cultural, and environmental characteristics. Therefore, to intervene successfully on the negative aspects of dietary acculturation, it is important to understand the process and identify factors that predispose and enable it to occur. The purpose of this article is to provide a practical model for understanding and investigating the effect of dietary acculturation on food and nutrient intake. Thus, this report 1) gives an overview of acculturation, 2) defines dietary acculturation and presents a model for how it occurs, 3) discusses measurement issues around dietary acculturation,4) reviews the literature on dietary acculturation in Korean Americans; 4) suggests a paradigm for acculturation research; and 5) offers some recommendations for future research in this area.

Background: Qigong is one of energy-healing intervention used to prevent and cure ailments and to improve health through regular practice. Although Qigong-neither itself nor its postulated mechanism of action-is within the paradigm of modern Western medical science, effects on the human body could be possible. Objectives: This study aims to know effect of Qigong training in a University student's physical, mental health and self-esteem. Method: There are 120 students who take a Yangsaengkigong(養生氣功) course in D University college of oriental medicine during four weeks beginning in April 10th 2008. I researched 41 of them trained about effect of Qigong training. Result: Qigong training made significant change in self-esteem measurement and SCL-90-R. And there wasn't significant change in KHP and happiness index. Conclusions: The depth study for the each Qigong is needed. Specifically, I think it should be a clinical studies and qualitative research methods for evaluation are needed.

Background: A physical therapy is required to restore motor function of stroke patients, especially gait function improvement is very important to them. Design: Systemic review. Methods: The purpose of this study is to provide objective evidence for the effectiveness of the treadmill training method applied to stroke patients. The literature search for a systematic review was performed on domestic data published from 2010 to 2020 at KISS, RISS, and DBpia. Results: 40 papers meeting the inclusion/exclusion criteria were finally selected. Data analysis was performed according to the research type, intervention method and process, measurement variables, and the risk of bias assessment was conducted as quality evaluation. Conclusion: Various training methods have been suggested and proved that treadmill intervention is an effective method for improving gait and balance. As the goal of rehabilitation for stroke patients is to improve walking and balance, we expect continuous clinical research to continue to establish a more systematic training program and present a new paradigm.

Cognitive radio (CR) is envisioned as a promising paradigm of exploiting intelligence for enhancing efficiency of underutilized spectrum bands. In CR, the main concern is to reliably sense the presence of primary users (PUs) to attain protection against harmful interference caused by potential spectrum access of secondary users (SUs). In this paper, evolutionary algorithms, namely, particle swarm optimization (PSO) and genetic algorithm (GA) are proposed to minimize the total sensing decision error at the common soft data fusion (SDF) centre of a structurally-centralized cognitive radio network (CRN). Using these techniques, evolutionary operations are invoked to optimize the weighting coefficients applied on the sensing measurement components received from multiple cooperative SUs. The proposed methods are compared with each other as well as with other conventional deterministic algorithms such as maximal ratio combining (MRC) and equal gain combining (EGC). Computer simulations confirm the superiority of the PSO-based scheme over the GA-based and other conventional MRC and EGC schemes in terms of detection performance. In addition, the PSO-based scheme also shows promising convergence performance as compared to the GA-based scheme. This makes PSO an adequate solution to meet real-time requirements.

디스플레이 장치와 영상 기술의 발전으로 3D 입체 영상에 대한 관심과 기술적 접근이 어느 때 보다 활발하다. 입체 영상의 경우 통상 복수의 평면 영상을 이용하여 합성하게 되는데 이 과정에서 각 영상의 객관적 화질을 서로 달리 함으로써 주관적 화질을 향상시킬 수 있다는 연구가 진행되어 왔다. 그러나 객관적 화질을 지나치게 달리 하거나 전반적으로 낮은 화질의 영상에서는 경계선이 제대로 재현되지 않아 입체감을 떨어뜨리는 문제가 발생한다. 또한 기존의 연구는 스테레오 영상에 한해서만 위의 가설을 검증하였으나 최근의 입체 영상에 관한 연구는 스테레오 영상뿐만 아니라 다시점 영상에서도 활발히 진행되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 스테레오 영상과 9시점 영상에서의 비대칭 영상 부호화가 주관적 화질에 미치는 영향을 검증하고 구체적으로 어느 정도의 객관적 화질 차이를 유지하는 것이 비대칭 부호화에서 가장 효율적인지를 밝힌다. 또한 기존의 비대칭 영상 부호화와 비교하여 주관적 화질을 개선할 수 있는 더욱 효율적인 알고리듬을 제안한다. 제안되는 알고리듬은 경계선의 강도를 기준으로 매크로블록의 양자화 파라미터를 달리 하여 영상의 경계선을 보호하는 방법으로써 기존의 비대칭 영상 부호화보다 더욱 향상된 주관적 화질을 얻을 수 있다.

The main purpose of the present study are as follows: First, through the extensive literature review, we tried to find out environmental changes in the management thoughts. Second, as we found a new paradigm on valuation-oriented management thoughts, we argued that cost/management accounting information should play key roles in creating values. Third, we pointed out that when firms used only financial performance measurements, problems could take places. Finally, especially to promote the organizational effectiveness and efficiency, we stressed that firms should use the balanced scorecard approach in performance measurements of its own organizations and personnels.

Generally, interlayer noise is measured in decibels (A) in terms of free field. In this paper, we propose a measurement method of interlayer vibration acceleration in the diffusion field perspective. The proposed method can represent a vibration-embodied formula similar to the sensitivity of earthquake intensity when the natural vibration of apartment house is measured by acceleration with its average value of $20mm/s^2$ represented by an the geometric progression of radix. Based on this theory, this paper proposes a method to show the optimal user experience (UX) by applying the interlayer vibration acceleration of the epicenter to the system of human - computer interaction (HCI).
