우리나라의 노인자살률은 OECD 국가 중에 1위이다. 인위적 고독사인 '자살'의 가장 큰 원인인 우울증을 의사소통을 통해 예방하고자 한다. 본 논문에서는 상황에 따라 독거노인에게 스피커가 먼저 질문하는 형식인 시스템을 제안한다. 음성인식 시스템인 스피커를 활용하여 독거노인의 의사소통을 증대시키고, 질문뿐만이 아니라 식사 여부, 약 복용 여부 관련 일상 알람도 주기 때문에 규칙적인 생활을 하는 데 도움을 준다.

Background: A ThinPrep$^{(R)}$ Processor was developed to overcome the limitations of conventional cytology and is widely used to diagnose various cancers. This study compared the diagnostic efficacy of conventional cytology for lung cancer with that of the ThinPrep$^{(R)}$ cytology using the bronchial washing fluid. Methods: The bronchial washing fluid of 790 patients from Jan. 2002 to Dec. 2006, who were suspected of gaving a lung malignancy, was evaluated. Both ThinPrep$^{(R)}$ and conventional cytology were performed for all specimens. Result: Four hundred forty-six men and 344 women were enrolled in this study, and 197 of them were diagnosed with cancer from either a bronchoscopic biopsy or a percutaneous needle aspiration biopsy. ThinPrep$^{(R)}$ cytology showed a sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, negative predictive value and false negative error rate of 71.1%, 98.0%, 92.1%, 91.1%, 8.9%, respectively. The conventional cytology showed sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, nagative predictive value and false negative error rate of 57.9%, 98.0%, 90.5%, 87.5%, 12.5%, respectively. For central lesions, the sensitivity of conventional cytology and ThinPrep$^{(R)}$ were 70.1% and 82.8%, respectively. Conclusion: ThinPrep$^{(R)}$ cytology showed a higher sensitivity and lower false negative error rate than conventional cytology. This result was unaffected by the histological classification of lung cancer. Therefore, ThinPrep$^{(R)}$ cytology appears to be a useful method for increasing the detection rate of lung cancer in bronchial washing cytology test.

차세대 플렉시블 디스플레이 소재로서, 탄소나노뷰브(CNT) 기반의 투명전도막은 기존의 ITO 박막보다 우수한 유연성을 갖기 때문에 많은 관심을 모으고 있다. 특히 낮은 저항과 투과도를 유지하면서 투명 전도막의 내구성을 향상시키는 연구는 상업화에 가장 필요한 연구 분야이다. 본 연구에서는 다층벽 탄소나노튜브(MWCNT)를 이용하여 제작된 투명 전도막의 내구성을 개선하기 위하여 오버 코팅을 통한 물성 개선을 연구하였다. 투명전도막은 PET기판 위에 스프레이 방식을 이용하여 균일하게 코팅하였다. 오버 코팅 물질로는 실리콘계 유무기하이브리드 투명하드 코팅을 적용하였다. 연구결과 오버 코팅층과 CNT 코팅층과의 젖음성이 물성 향상에 가장 많은 영향을 끼치는 것을 관찰하였고, 특히 젖음성이 증가할수록 투과도와 전기전도도가 향상되는 것을 확인하였다. 또한 고온 고습 환경에서 240시간 이상 내구성 테스트 결과, 저항률 변화가 1.1 이하인 것을 확인하였다.

음성 중심의 기존 2G CDMA/PCS의 성능 및 용량을 분석하기 위한 트래픽 모델링에서는 시간당 평균 호 발생률, 발생 간격의 분포, 호 유지시간(Holding Time), 그리고 최번시(Busy Hour)를 결정하는 것이 주요 과제였으며, 이를 이용한 트래픽 엔지니어링은 음성호의 Blocking 확률과 지연시간을 최소화 하기위한 충분한 호 자원 확보에 중심을 두었던 것이 사실이다. 그러나 CDMA2000 1X 및 1xEV-DO/DV와 같은 3G 고속 데이터 이동통신 시스템에서의 패킷 데이터 트래픽의 특성은 자기 유사성(Self-similarity)이라는 성질을 가진다는 것은 잘 알려진 사실이다. 이와같은 고속 데이터 이동통신 시스템에서 요구되는 효율적인 망의 설계 및 디멘져닝을 위해서는 무엇보다도 데이터 트래픽의 주요 특성인 버스트함과 자기유사성이 반영된 모델 분석이 요구된다. 이러한 관점에서 본 논문에서는 데이터 트래픽의 자기유사성 및 큐잉 지연을 고려한 유효대역폭 산출식을 유도하여 시뮬레이션 결과와 비교 분석하였다.

This paper describes a real-time implementation of a GSM-EFR (Global System for Mobil communications Enhanced Full Rate) speech coder using OakDSP core; a 16bit fixed-point Digital Signal Processor (DSP) by DSP Group, Inc. The real-time implemented speech coder required about 24MIPS for computation and 7.06K words and 12.19K words for code and data memory, respectively. The implemented GSM-EFR speech coder passes all of test vectors provided by ETSI (European Telecommunication Standard Institute), and perceptual speech quality measurement using MNB algorithm shows that the quality of the GSM-EFR speech coder is similar to the one of 32kbps ADPCM. The real-time implemented GSM-EFR speech coder which is the highest bit-rate mode of the GSM-AMR speech coder will be used as the basic structure of the GSM-AMR speech coder which is embedded in MODEM ASIC of IMT2000 asynchronous mode mobile station.

Purpose: Tc-99m MIBI scintimammography has been validated as an useful non-invasive diagnostic tool for the primary breast cancer. But most studies have included small population of patients. We have experienced a large study population and investigated the diagnostic usefulness of Tc-99m MIBI scintimammography in detection of primary breast cancer and axillary lymph node metastasis. Materials and Methods: This study included 305 patients who underwent scintimammogtaphy for palpable breast masses or abnormal radiologic findings. Tc-99m MIBI scintimammography was performed 10 minutes after intravenous injection of 925 MBq of Tc-99m MIBI. If the early image revealed abnormal finding, 3 hour delayed image was also acquired. We calculated early and delayed lesion to non-lesion ratios (L/N). The pathologic diagnosis was obtained from surgical operation or FNAB and compared with the results of Tc-99m MIBI scintimammography. Results: Malignant breast diseases were 155 and benign ones were 150. Tc-99m MIBI scintimammography revealed 132 true positive, 23 false negative, 10 false positive, and 140 true negative cases. The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value and negative predictive value for the primary breast cancer detection were 85.2%, 93.4%, 92.9%, and 85.9%, respectively. The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive and negative predictive values of Tc-99m MIBI scintimammography in detecting metastatic axillary lymph node involvement were 22%, 90.4%, 61.9% and 62.3%, respectively. Early L/N of malignant breast disease was significantly higher than that of benign one ($2.44{\pm}0.97\;vs\;1.94{\pm}0.78$, p=0.01). Delayed L/N had no significant difference between malignant and benign breast diseases ($1.94{\pm}0.52\;vs\;1.91{\pm}0.73$, p=0.43). Conclusion: Our study revealed that Tc-99m MIBI scintimammography was an useful diagnostic tool for the diagnosis of breast cancer. And early L/N ratio might provide complementary role in the detection of breast cancer. But the Tc-99m MIBI scintimammography had limited value in the detection of small breast cancer (less than 1 cm) and axillary lymph node metastasis.

Purpose : Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is the most frequent cause of lower respiratory infections in infants and young children. Early detection allows quarantining of infected inpatients to prevent nosocomial transmission and to choose a treatment. To achieve rapid reporting, to facilitate prompt antiviral therapy, and to avoid unnecessary use of antibiotics, an easy, rapid diagnostic method for RSV is needed. We evaluated a lateral flow immunochromatography (RSV Respi-Strip test) and EIA (Enzyme immuno assay) compared to RT-PCR. Methods : From April 2007 to March 2008, 112 consecutive respiratory specimens (nasopharyngeal aspirates, throat swabs, tracheal aspirates, sputum) from patients who were suffering from the clinical signs and symptoms of respiratory tract infection were enrolled in Busan. A total of 112 patients were tested with RSV Respi-Strip (Corio-BioConcept, Belgium), EIA, and RT-PCR at the same time. Results : Of the 112 specimens tested, the number of children who showed positive results at RT-PCR and Respi-Strip were 45 and 42, respectively. The Respi-Strip rapid antigen test had a sensitivity of 88% and a specificity of 94%. The positive and negative predictive values were 90% and 92%, respectively. The agreement was 83%. Conclusion : In our study, the rapid antigen test had as much sensitivity as any method for detection of RSV. The test has many advantages such as easy performance, simple interpretation, and rapid results. If the rapid antigen test is widely applied in the clinical setting, the may be useful for diagnostic and epidemiological studies of RSV infection.

The demand for multimedia transmission in wireless networking is rapidly increasing. Performance evaluation in the CDMA system has been carried out on the voice-oriented system without re-transmission or buffering. We propose a multimedia access protocol with buffering and ARQ which can meet a variety of QoS requirements. We study the effect of buffering in MC-CDMA(Multi-Code CDMA) and design a dynamic rate control algorithms, whose simulation shows the efficiency of MC-CDMA.
