본 논문에서는 웨이브렛 기반 블록화 현상 제거에 대한 고속 알고리듬과 적응 역치화 기법을 제안하였다. 제안된 고속 알고리듬에서는 웨이브렛 변환 영역의 첫번째 스케일과 2번째 스케일에서의 처리와 동일한 효과를 갖는 모든 처리를 공간 영역에서 수행한다. 제안된 적응 역치화 기법은 블록 경계 영역을 분류할 때 사용하는 역치를 공간 영역에서 구할 수 있는 블록 경계와 블록 중앙의 웨이브렛 변환 신호의 통계적 특성을 이용하여 처리하고자 하는 영상에 적응적으로 선택할 수 있도록 하였다. 실험 결과, 제안된 고속 알고리듬은 웨이브렛 변환에 의한 방법에 비하여 약 10배의 속도 개선이 있고, 적응 역치화에 의한 후처리는 어떤 영상의 높은 압축률에서 가장 좋은 성능을 가지는 고정된 역치에 의한 후처리에 비하여 낮은 압축률에서도 PSNR 성능과 주관적 화질이 개선됨을 알 수 있었다.

The effectiveness of four air fresher (AF) systems was evaluated with respect to their removal efficiencies against offensive odorants. For this purpose, malodorous species were generated by exposing freshly cooked foods emitting odorants with levels moderately above their respective threshold values in a confined room. The deodorization efficiency of the four AF systems was then tested for a period of 30 min by estimating the extent of reduction in odorant levels after the operation of each AF. The removal efficiency of the four AF units against each odorant was evaluated as follows: (1) between AF products from different manufacturers, (2) between odorants and ultrafine particulate matter ($PM_{2.5}$), and (3) between operation and natural degassing. The average sorptive removal of odorants was generally <80% and considered less effective or non-effective relative to $PM_{2.5}$. Further examination of odor reduction, if evaluated in terms of odor indices like odor intensity (OI) and odor activity value (OAV), recorded a mean of 33% and 87%, respectively. The overall results of this study confirmed that all tested AF units were not effective to resolve odor problems created under our testing conditions.

Simple camera-based system for evaluation of lower limb alignment as a part of an automated cycling fitting system was developed and verified in this study. Developed imaging system can evaluate lower limb alignment quantitatively during pedaling using a general camcorder and single marker attached on the knee. Threshold-based marker detection algorithm was proposed in this study. Experiment was carried out to compare the trajectory data from marker detection algorithm of the developed imaging system with the trajectory data from 3-D motion capture system. Results showed that average error between trajectories was 2.33 mm (0.92 %) in the vertical direction and 0.62 mm (1.86 %) in the medio-lateral direction. There existed significant correlation between two measured values (r=0.9996 in the vertical direction and r=0.9975 in the medio-lateral direction). It can be concluded that developed imaging system be applied to evaluate lower limb alignment which is an important factor for dynamic bicycle fitting.

일반적으로 일차원 광부호분할 다중접속 시스템은 광직교코드를 사용하여 부호화와 복호화를 수행하지만 이차원 광부호분할 다중접속 시스템에서는 병렬 데이터의 전송을 위하여 이차원의 광직교패턴코드를 사용하여 부호화와 복호화를 수행한다. 이 때 사용되는 광직교패턴코드는 자기상관값과 상호상관값 특성이 좋아야 하지만, 송수신단간의 시간에 대한 정보나 패턴의 동기화가 보장된다면 자기상관값에 대한 조건을 완화시킬 수 있으며 생성할 수 있는 패턴코드의 수도 늘어나게 된다. 본 논문에서는 2차원 데이터의 병렬전송을 위한 광부호분할 다중접속 시스템을 소개하고 2차원 패턴코드의 생성방법에 대하여 알아보며 제시된 생성방법에 대하여 다른 사용자의 간섭잡음에 의한 확률밀도함수와 그에 다른 각 패턴코드의 비트오율을 유도한다. 임계치 및 동시사용자수에 대한 비트오율을 통해 시스템의 성능을 확인하여 최적의 광직교패턴코드 생성의 조건을 제안한다.

Purpose : The purpose of this study was to investigate the interrelationship between eye movement and auditory function through the effects of eye lateralization on transient evoked otoacoustic emissions of auditory function. Methods : 25 subjects with complete set of ears were used in this study, which composed of 12 males and 13 females with pure tone threshold of below 25 dB without otolaryngology were evaluated. Each of the patient has a visual acuity of greater than 1.0 after correction, and has no problems with eye disease, eye movement, and human parallel system. In a dark silent room, the subjects sat on a chair with their heads fixed on a headrest. The tests were performed by asking the patients to look at a fixed red light dot on a light bar in front of them. This light was directed to the front, right and left sides of the subject at an angle of 40 ° In the presence of the stimulus sound in the ipsilateral ear, the transient evoked otoacoustic emissions of the ipsilateral ear was measured at the straight, right and left fixation. In order to evaluate the transient evoked otoacoustic emissions through the efferent auditory pathway, the transient evoked otoacoustic emission values of the contralateral ear were measured at the straight, right and left fixation. These measurements were taken at frequencies of 1 kHz, 1.4 kHz, 2.0 kHz, 2.8 kHz and 4 kHz, respectively. Results : Transient evoked otoacoustic emissions caused by lateral movement of the eye showed significant changes at 1.4 KHz and 2 KHz of the afferent pathway of the ipsilateral ear. Also, significant changes were observed at 1.4 KHz and 4 KHz of the efferent pathway of the contralateral ear. Conclusion : These results indicated that there is a close relationship between eye movement and auditory cochlea. In the future, further studies considering more diverse subjects and age groups will be needed.

낙상은 응급상황이 발생한 노인에게는 적절한 시간이 응급처치가 요구되는 주요한 상태이다. 응급상황의 경우, 낙상의 발생과 낙상 방향은 초기 상태의 응급처치를 위한 중요한 정보로 사용될 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 낙상의 발생과 방향을 정확히 판단하는 시스템을 구현하였다. 낙상과 방향을 감지하기 위하여 하나의 3축 자이로도센서(MPU-6050)를 사용하였다. 제안된 낙상 방향 알고리듬은 X와 Y축 가속도값을 사용하여 낙상여부와 앞, 뒤 좌,우 및 중간방향을 포함한 8개 낙상방향을 감지하였다. 제안된 시스템은 선택적인 가속도 임계값을 사용하여 97% 이상의 낙상과 낙상방향을 성공적으로 감지함을 보였다.

Objectives : Despite various government initiatives, including the expansion of national health insurance coverage, health inequality has been a key health policy issue in South Korea during the past decade. This study describes and compares the extent of the total health inequality and the income-related health inequality over time among Korean adults. Methods : This study employs the 1998, 2001 and 2005 Korean National Health and Nutrition Examination Surveys (KNHANESs). The self-assessed health (SAH) ordinal responses, measured on a five-point scale, resealed to cardinal values to measure the health inequalities with using interval regression. The boundaries of each threshold for the interval regression analysis were obtained from the empirical distribution of the EuroQol-5 Dimension (EQ-5D) valuation weights estimated from the 2005 KNHANES. The final model predicting the individuals' health status included age, gender, educational attainment, occupation, income, and the regional prosperity index. The concentration index was used to measure and analyze the health inequality. Results : The KNHANES data showed an unequal distribution of the total health inequality in favor of the higher income groups, and this is getting worse over time (0.0327 in 1998, 0.0393 in 2001 and 0.0924 in 2005). The income-related health inequality in 2005 was 0.0278, indicating that 30.1% of the total health inequality can be attributed to income. Conclusions : The findings indicate there are health inequalities across the sociodemographic and income groups despite the recent government's efforts. Further research is warranted to investigate what potential policy actions are necessary to decrease the health inequality in Korea.

The purpose of this study are to compare existing presence-absence predictive models and to predict suitable habitat for Goral (Nemorhaedus caudatus raddeanus) that is an endangered and protected species in Seoraksan national park using the best model among existing predictive models. The methods of this study are as follows. First, 375 location data and 9 environmental data layers were implemented to build a model. Secondly, 4 existing presence-absence models : Generalized Linear Model (GLM), Generalized Addictive Model (GAM), Classification and Regression Tree (CART), and Artificial Neural Network (ANN) were tested to predict the Goal habitat. Thirdly, ROC (Receiver Operating Characteristic) and Kappa statistics were used to calculate a model performance. Lastly, we verified models and created habitat suitability maps. The ROC AUC (Area Under the Curve) and Kappa values were 0.697/0.266 (GLM), 0.729/0.313 (GAM), 0.776/0.453 (CART), and 0.858/0.559 (ANN). Therefore, ANN was selected as the best model among 4 models. The models showed that elevation, slope, and distance to stream were the significant factors for Goal habitat. The ratio of predicted area of ANN using a threshold was 31.29%, but the area decreased when human effect was considered. We need to investigate the difference of various models to build a suitable wildlife habitat model under a given condition.
