Medical practice is characterized by various physiological response and uncapacity of prediction, therefore when medical accident occur it's hard to prove medical professionals' mistake. Though medical accident by medical professionals' mistake will be compensated anyhow, about irresistible medical accidents, no one should be not bound to compensate, victims get into very difficult situation. So, the nation don't negligent irresistible medical accidents but compensate anyway. As in the past, to the legal principle's constitution of irresistible medical accidents, theory of liability without fault was adapted, and it was said this theory was illogical in theory of liability with fault. But the subject of compensation to irresistible medical accidents is nation, nation don't participate in medical treatment therefore there is no room to occur mistake. And it is not reasonable to regard medical agency as a truster of public service, to cast to it responsibility of medical accidents. The problem of compensation to irresistible medical accidents is understood under the theory of social compensation. Social compensation is consisted of compensation to sacrifice and contribution to nation and society and compensation to sacrifice revealed under danger, the compensation to irresistible medical accidents belongs to the latter. This is near to concept of relief, is applied to national compensation system supplementarily, and compensation have no option but to compensate minimum. And there are not relation between national compensation system of irresistible medical accidents and proof liability transposition and theory of liability with out fault, merely in side of sharing responsibility burden between medical treater and victim, it is reasonable to discuss transportation of proof liability and compulsive liability insurance together.

This paper presents exact autotransformer-fed AC electric railroad system modeling using constant current mode, and single-phase STATCOM(Static Synchronous Compensator) which has an effect on electric railroad system. An AC electric railroad is rapidly changing single-phase feeding electric power. To avoid voltage fluctuation under single phase loads, electric power should be received from a large source. The system modeling theory is based on the solution of algebraic. The AC electric railroad load model is nonlinear. Therefore this paper is considered nonlinear load using PSCAD/EMTDC. And the proposed modeling method is considered the line self-impedances and mutual-impedances that techniques for the AC electric railroad system modeling analysis, and that single-phase STATCOM can reliably compensate the voltage drop. In the case study, the allowance range of feeding voltage is 22.5∼27.5 kV, AT-fed AC electric railroad system circuit is analyzed by loop equation both normal and extension modes. The simulation objectives are to calculate the catenary and rail voltages with respect to ground, as the train moves along a section of line between two adjacent ATs. The results show that single-phase STATCOM can reduce the voltage drop in the feeding circuit and improve the power quality at AC electric railroad system by compensating the reactive power.

In order to improve the quality of strain images in medical ultrasound imaging, displacements need to be accurately estimated. In this paper, in order to apply one-dimensional displacement estimation methods to two-dimensional motion estimation, the axial and lateral displacements are separately estimated. In order to estimate lateral displacements, one-dimensional signals aligned in the lateral direction are converted to analytic signals, which are then crosscorrelated. Strain images are produced by first compensating two-dimensional displacements for lateral motion with lateral motion displacement estimates obtained from the proposed lateral displacement estimation algorithm and then estimating axial displacements. Both phantom and human data experiments show that the proposed method provides better signal-to-noise ratio and contrast-to-noise ratio characteristics than a conventional strain imaging method that utilizes axial displacement estimates only.

Pre-emphasizing the speech compensates for falloff at high frequencies. The most common form of pre-emphasis is y(n)=s(n)-A${\cdot}$s(n-1), where A typically lies between 0.9 and 1.0 in voiced signal. And, this value reflects the degree of pre-emphasis and equals R(1)/R(0) in conventional method. This paper proposes a new flattening method to compensate the weaked high frequency components that occur by vocal cord characteristic. We used QMF(Quardrature Mirror Filter) to minimize the output signal distortion. After using the QMF to compensate high frequency components, flattening process is followed by R(1)/R(0) at each frame. Experimental results show that the proposed method flattened the weaked high frequency components effectively than auto correlation method. Therefore, the flattening algorithm will apply in speech signal processing like speech recognition, speech analysis and synthesis.

In this paper, we propose a frame-rate up-conversion method for temporal quality enhancement. The proposed method adaptively changes search range during hierarchical motion estimation and reconstructs hole regions using the proposed bi-direction prediction and linear interpolation. In order to alleviate errors due to inaccurate motion vector estimation, search range is adaptively changed based on reliability and for more accurate, motion estimation is performed in descending order of block variance. After segmentation of background and object regions, for filling hole regions, the pixel values of background regions are reconstructed using linear interpolation and those of object regions are compensated based on the proposed hi-directional prediction. The proposed algorithm is evaluated in terms of PSNR with original uncompressed sequences. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm is better than conventional methods by around 2dB, and blocky artifacts and blur artifacts are significantly diminished.

In this thesis, to compensate the sweep nonlinearity occurring in the high resolution radar system using FMICW or FMCW, the method of the estimation of the nonlinearity is proposed. The nonlinear phase component caused by the nonlinear characteristic of the radar system is modelled as a linear combination of the sinusoidal functions consisting of various magnitudes and phases(systematic nonlinear phase error) and a random component(stochastic nonlinear phase error). From two IF signals that are measured respectively independently for two reference point targets lying in different distances which are known, a sparse linear equation is made and solved by least squares method to estimate the nonlinear phase component. The estimated component can be used for predistortion method to compensate the sweep nonlinearity.

소비자 보호 및 효율적 자원배분, 기업의 안전증진 유인제공, 제도의 국제적 조화를 위하여 제조물책임법(製造物責任法) 제정의 필요성이 제기되고 있다. 현재 제조물로 인한 사고는 민법(民法)에 의하여 보상받고 있으나 그 입증책임이 과중하고, 현재 우리나라 생산물배상책임보험(生産物賠償責任保險)이 전체 손해보험에서 차지하는 비중은 0.1%에 불과(미국 10%)하여 그 비용이 아직 미미하므로 제조물책임법제(製造物責任法制) 도입의 안전증진효과가 경제적 손실보다 클 것으로 예상된다. 법제정시의 기본방향은 소비자에게 단순히 보상을 제공하는 법제가 아닌, 기업의 책임과 제품결함이 밀접히 연관되어 배상(賠償) 및 사고억제(事故抑制)의 유인과 효과를 극대화하는 것이어야 한다. 추정규정의 도입은 소비자(消費者) 피해구제(被害救濟)를 용이하게 하지만, 디자인 및 경고결함(警告缺陷)과 결합되면 제조자가 제품사고의 모든 가능성에 대해 완벽한 정보를 가지지 않는 한 제조자의 책임이 되어 제조물책임(製造物責任)의 불확실성(不確實性)을 높이고, 결과적으로 기업에게 절대책임(絶對責任)을 부과하게 되어 제품개발과 혁신을 위축시키는 등의 부정적(否定的) 영향을 초래할 위험이 크다. 따라서 결함의 추정은 인정하지 않아야 하며, 제품개발 및 혁신을 도모하기 위해 개발위험항변(開發危險抗辯)은 인정되어야 한다. 손해배상액(損害賠償額) 상한(上限)을 두지 않는 것이 경제적으로 효율적이고 연대책임을 인정하여 유통업자의 안전제고유인(安全提高誘因)도 강화하는 것이 효과적이다. 중소기업을 포함한 모든 기업에게 입법후 1년 정도의 준비기간(準備期間)을 주는 것이 바람직할 듯하며, 배상책임보험(賠償責任保險)은 의무화하지 않는 것이 경제적으로 효율적이다. 기계, 전자, 운송용기기, 건설, 화학, 식 의약품, 가스제품, 완구, 운동용구 등이 영향을 크게 받을 것으로 예상되지만 법제이용(法制利用)의 편의가 개선되기 전에는 소송의 증가는 미미하리라 예상된다.

The most common form of pre-emphasis is y(n)=s(n)-As(n-1), where A typically lies between 0.9 and 1.0 in voiced signal. Also, this value reflects the degree of pre-emphasis and equals R(1)/R(0) in conventional method. This paper proposes a new flattening method to compensate the weaked high frequency components that occur by vocal cord characteristic. We used interval information of LSP to estimate formant frequency, After obtaining the value of slope and inverse slope using linear interpolation among formant frequency, flattening process is followed. Experimental results show that the proposed method flattened the weaked high frequency components effectively. That is, we could improve the flattening characteristics by using interval information of LSP as flattening factor at the process that compensates weaked high frequency components.

The relational database system on fatigue strength was constructed, and the properties of fatigue life distribution were examined to analyze reliability and safety of metallic materials. Data manipulations were efficiently performed in relational fatigue strength database system using dependency diagram. Regardless of the distribution of fatigue strength, the proposed method, the Robust method and the complementary error function method using probability distribution, successfully estimated parameters of the 3-parameter Weibull distribution. The proposed criterion for estimating non-failure probability showed good results regardless of censoring time. The fatigue life distribution function described as a function of parameters of the Weibull distribution and applied stress ratio produced P-S-N characteristics reasonably.

All publications of a country is a cultural heritage with the spirit of humanity, each National Library has to collect and preserve all publications produced in each country. Acquisition activity(Collection development) of each National Library is supported by a powerful legal deposit system. Therefore, this study has analyzed the legal deposit systems of the world countries, especially focussed whether or not the compensation for legal deposit, whether or not any sanction against not-depositing, Fine collection procedures against not-depositing, and the specific process for legal deposit. Based on these investigations, this study was to seek ways to contribute the legal deposit rates of National Library. It has proposed the following suggestions; Performing of legal deposit duty by itself, developing the system for supporting the legal deposit, establishing newly of legal deposit department, and improving the compensation for the legal depositor.
