PURPOSE: This study aims to provide effects of therapeutic techniques as well as basic materials of safety by comparing and analyzing the effects of hamstring flexibility and dynamic stability of lower lumbar according to Stretching and Massage Techniques to adults with reduced the flexibility of hamstring. METHODS: This study conducted differential diagnosis through sit and reach test(SRT) and Schober test to select subjects who have shortened hamstring without any spinal problem. Selected subjects were divided into two groups randomly; HSG(Hamstring Stretching Group, n=8) and HMG(Hamstring Massage Group, n=8) and they received treatment for 2 weeks. To take statistics, SRT and dynamic view using x-ray were used. RESULTS: On SRT, HSG and HMG showed significant difference between pre and post test. A comparison of the difference value between HSG and HMG, HSG($9.73{\pm}1.78$) has more remarkable outcome than HMG($2.78{\pm}0.56$). Lower lumbar intervertebral disc length test for Intervertebral disc length(IDL)L45 and IDLL5S1 did not show significant differences between two groups and difference value. CONCLUSION: This study showed that stretching is more effective to improve hamstring flexibility than massage technique. Especially, flexibility increase of the hamstring in vertebral stabilization cannot affect improvement possibility will make a flexibility in order and the intervention and stabilization exercise of the spine.

Purpose : The purpose of this study is to find out which method is efficient to enhance the flexibility of lower back between PNF(Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation), static and dynamic stretching. Methods : Subjects were 30 young people between the ages 17 and 19. They were randomly divided into three groups; static group(n=10) performed a static stretching, dynamic group(n=10) performed a dynamic stretching, and PNF group(n=10) performed a PNF stretching. Intervention was provided 5 days per week for 4 weeks. For each case, Trunk flexion forward, trunk flexion backward, trunk left lateral bending, trunk right lateral bending, trunk flexion forward a measuring instrument and tapeline were performed to measured the flexibility of lower back at different times(before starting the exercise, after 4 weeks). Results : The results of the study reveal that the lower back flexibility was a statistically significant difference in all groups(p<.05). There was statistically significant difference between PNF group and static group, PNF group and dynamic group. Conclusion : The finding indicated that PNF may be preferred technique for improving flexibility, and that flexibility training results in an increased consistency of flexibility scores.

This study was designed to examine the effects of 12 weeks of circuit exercise on obesity, physical fitness and metabolic syndrome index in elderly obese women. 19 elderly obese women volunteered to participate in and completed the study. Participants went through their exercise program for 30 minutes per session and 3 sessions per week for 12 weeks. Lower(p<.001) and upper extremities strength(p<.05), upper(p<.05) and lower extremities flexibility(p<.01), agility & dynamic balance(p<.001), endurance exercise capacity(p<.05) were significantly increased after 12 weeks circuit training. Also, Body weight(p<.001), BMI(p<.001) & Metabolic syndrome index as waist circumference(p<.01), systolic BP(p<.05), TG(p<.001), HDL-C(p<.01), glucose(p<.05) were significantly differenced between pre and post. It was concluded that circuit exercise program has positive effects on body composition, physical fitness and metabolic syndrome index in elderly obese women.

This paper proposes a time-domain sound event detection algorithm using DNN (Deep Neural Network). In this system, time domain sound waveform data which is not converted into the frequency domain is used as input to the DNN. The overall structure uses CRNN structure, and GLU, ResNet, and Squeeze-and-excitation blocks are applied. And proposed structure uses structure that considers features extracted from several layers together. In addition, under the assumption that it is practically difficult to obtain training data with strong labels, this study conducted training using a small number of weakly labeled training data and a large number of unlabeled training data. To efficiently use a small number of training data, the training data applied data augmentation methods such as time stretching, pitch change, DRC (dynamic range compression), and block mixing. Unlabeled data was supplemented with insufficient training data by attaching a pseudo-label. In the case of using the neural network and the data augmentation method proposed in this paper, the sound event detection performance is improved by about 6 %(based on the f-score), compared with the case where the neural network of the CRNN structure is used by training in the conventional method.

The purpose of this study was to find the effects of long-term combined exercise on regional bone mineral density(BMD) and cardiovascular disease(CVD) risk factors in the elderly with osteoporosis(OP). For the purpose, the subjects of this study were separated by two groups with thirty-one elderly women, who the first group was combined exercise group(CEG, n=16) and second group was non exercise group(CON, n=15). The combined exercise program was made up of warm-up (10min), work-out (aerobic; 30~45min/HRR 40~60%, resistance; 1RM * 50-70%, 8-10 * 2set ~ 10-15 * 1set), and cool-down (10min). Exercise group of the inspection have been trained 5 times a week for 1years. The results : At first, the variables of regional BMD were significantly different to pelvis, spine, trunk and T-score in two groups. At second, the variables of CVD risk factors were significantly different to SBP and DBP as well as TC, TG, LDL-C and HDL-C in two groups. As results of these conclusion, this study have positively effect shown that CEG was superior to CON in regional BMD(pelvis, spine, trunk and T-score), blood pressure(SBP, DBP) and plasma lipids(TC, TG, and LDL-C). Especially, the long-term combined exercise was provides a striking overall health quality of life with improving BMD and reduced CVD risk factors in the elderly with OP. In the future, other researches should deal with specific measures that reduction in mortality due to chronic disease and improvement quality of life for the development of programs in multiple researches of osteoporosis and chronic diseases.
