As the elderly population increases, the prevalence of various geriatric chronic diseases and dementia diseases is also rapidly increasing; accordingly, dementia is becoming a major concern of our society. In this study, 48 elderly patients with mild cognitive impairment located in K district were selected from a group of experimental groups in one building and a control group in one building and evaluated for blood homocysteine levels and cognitive function changes after 4,8, and 12 weeks of taking vitamin supplements. The Chi-squared test, Fisher's Exact test, independent t-test, repeated measures ANOVA, contrast test, repeated measures ANCOVA, and Wilks' lambda test were utilized to analyze the data. The results revealed that the cognitive function of the experimental group was significantly higher than that of the control group at 12 weeks (p<0.05), and so, the experimental group higher than that of the control group (p<0.01), the effect of taking vitamins was significantly increased, indicating that homocysteine was decreased relative to the control group. Therefore, vitamin supplements may prevent decreases in cognitive functions and dementia among elderly patients with mild cognitive impairment.

Objective : This study was to evaluate the effects of a Neurofeedback(NFB) and Computer Assisted Cognitive Rehabilitation(CACR) training to improve on cognition and affected arm function in stroke subjects. Methods : Participants were randomly allocated to three groups: NFB(n=14), CACR(n=14) and control(n=16). All groups received occupational therapy and physical therapy for 5 session 30 minutes per week during 6 weeks. Also NFB and CACR group practiced additional NeuroComp training and RehaCom training for 30 sessions 30 minutes during 6 weeks. Results were evaluated by cognition, affected arm function. Results : There were significantly increased by CACR training that outcomes of MMSE-K(p<.05). And there weren't significantly difference by NFB and CACR training that outcomes of the affected arm function. And a difference between three groups wasn't found. Conclusion : The NFB and CACR training improves cognitive function. These results suggest that NFB and CACR training is feasible and suitable for individuals with stroke.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of the multimodal cognitive intervention focusing on instrumental daily life on the cognitive function, depression and quality of life of the elderly with high-risk of dementia. This study was conducted on 24 elderly people with high-risk of dementia who participated in cognitive rehabilitation program from March to June, 2018 in Chungbuk A region. The intervention was applied to cognitive training and creative activities related to instrumental daily life. MMSE-DS, Subjective Memory Complaints Questionnaire, Short Geriatric Depression Scale-Korean version and Geriatric quality of life - Dementia were performed before and after the intervention. We confirmed that the subjects showed significant improvement in Subjective Memory Complaints and Quality of Life, but showed no significant changes in cognitive function and depression after the intervention program. Through this study, it was confirmed that this program which can affect the real life of the elderly can be usefully applied in the community. In the future, it will be necessary to develop a program that utilizes more diverse instrumental activities of daily living.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the short term effectiveness of a cognitive ability improvement service for children, which is one of the 'Investment activities for Local Community Services' conducted by the Ministry for Health and Welfare. Results indicate that the longer the period of using cognitive improvement services for children, the more positively significant influence there is on their language abilities in terms of comprehension, expression, and reading-writing. Furthermore, these influences are stronger in children of low-income families than in children from higher income families. Certainly, this type of service improves infants' language abilities regardless of the income level of their families.

본 논문에서는 진단시스템의 추론성능을 향상시키기 위한 방법으로서, 사례 기반 추론을 통해서 규칙 기반 추론의 단점을 보완하여 성능을 향상시키는 혼합형 추론 모델을 제안한다. 본 모델의 특징은 규칙 기반 추론의 확장성 문제와 규칙화 할 수 없는 예외적인 상황에 대한 문제점을 사례 기반 추론에서 사례로 저장하여 규칙 기반 추론의 단점을 보완하는데 있다. 이런 두 모델의 문제점을 해결하는 과정은 첫째로, 문제에 따라 규칙기반추론 모듈의 베이스를 통해서 적절한 규칙을 적용 후 추론을 적용하여 근접한 해를 얻어낸다. 두 번째로, 규칙베이스에 저장되어 있지 않은 문제에 대해서는 사례 라이브러리를 검색하고 유사성 검사를 통해서 저장된 사례를 찾아 입력된 사례에 적용하여 문제를 해결한다. 셋째로, 해결된 문제에 대해서 수정작업을 통해 사례 라이브러리를 확장한다. 이와 같이 세 과정을 통해 본 논문에서 제안하는 방법론의 성과를 측정하기 위하여 정비 메뉴얼을 규칙화하여 규칙베이스를 구축하였고 전문가들의 경험적인 지식에 대해서는 사례라이브러리로 구축하였다. 또한 지식베이스를 통해서 진단을 수행하고 해결된 문제에 대해서 정확도 검사를 통해 진단의 정확성을 측정하여 혼합형추론엔진의 성능을 검증하였다.

최근 신생창업가의 네트워킹 활동이 성공적인 창업을 좌우한다는 선진연구 가능성이 주목받는 가운데, 본 연구는 창업가의 인지적 특성인 자아효능감과 심리적 특성인 모호성 인내가 네트워킹 활동에, 그리고 네트워킹 활동의 구성요소들이 기업성과에 미치는 영향에 대해 탐색적으로 연구하는데 그 주된 목적으로했다. 창업한지 3년 미만의 신생벤처기업의 창업가 156명의 설문지 응답을 표본으로 검증하였다. 연구결과, 첫째, 창업가의 자아효능감은 네트워킹과 창업성과에 각각 유의한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 둘째, 모호성 인내는 네트워킹과 창업성과에 모두 유의한 영향을 미치지 않는 것으로 분석되었다. 셋째, 네트워킹 활동은 창업성과에 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났으며, 네트워킹 활동의 구성요소 중 네트워크 빈도와 신뢰는 창업성과에 유의한 영향을 미치는데 반해, 네트워크 범위는 유의한 영향을 미치지 않는 것으로 분석되었다. 따라서 창업기업의 성과향상을 위해서는 창업가의 심리적 특성 보다는 인지적 특성인 자아효능감이 더 중요하다고 볼 수 있다. 또한 신생벤처 창업가의 네트워킹 활동의 경우 네트워크의 범위를 무리하게 확장하는 것은 기업성과 향상에 부정적 영향을 초래할 수 있다는 실무적 시사점과 함께 연구한계 및 연구방향을 제시하고 있다

This study is intended to look into the structural relationships between project manager's creative thinking, entrepreneurship, and project performance. To achieve this, research model and hypothesis were established to carry out statistical analysis based on the results of an empirical sample survey. The findings showed that project manager's creative thinking didn't improve project satisfaction directly, but it improved project satisfaction through the mediating effects of project manager's entrepreneurship. While it had a direct effect on perceived project performance, project manager's entrepreneurship was not mediated in this process. This suggests that even if project managers have a high expertise, thinking skill and motivation as creative thinking in working on the project, they have the limitation in leading to customer satisfaction from a personal perspective.

최근 수년간 한국어를 위한 어휘의미망에 대한 관심은 꾸준히 높아지고 있지만, 그 결과물을 어떻게 평가하고 활용할 것인가에 대한 방안은 이루어지지 않고 있다. 본 논문에서는 단어클러스터링 시스템 개발을 통하여, 어휘의미망에 의해 확장되기 전후의 클러스터링을 수행하여 데이터를 서로 비교하였다. 단어클러스터링 시스템 개발을 위해 사용된 학습 데이터는 신문 말뭉치 기사로 총 68,455,856 어절 규모이며, 특성벡터와 벡터공간모델을 이용하여 시스템A를 완성하였다. 시스템B는 구축된 '[-하]동사류' 3,656개의 어휘의미를 포함하는 동사어휘의미망을 포함하여 확장된 것으로 확장대상정보를 선택하여 특성벡터를 재구성한다. 대상이 되는 실험 데이터는 '다국어 어휘의미망-코어넷'으로 클러스터링 결과 나타난 어휘들의 세 번째 층위까지의 노드 동일성 여부로 정확률 검수를 하였다. 같은 환경에서 시스템A와 시스템B를 비교한 결과 단어클러스터링의 정확률이 45.3%에서 46.6%로의 향상을 보였다. 향후 연구는 어휘의미망을 활용하여 좀 더 다양한 시스템에 체계적이고 폭넓은 평가를 통해 전산시스템의 향상은 물론, 연구되고 있는 많은 어휘의미망에 의미 있는 평가 방안을 확대시켜 나가야 할 것이다.

In this paper, we proposed spectrum sensing using cooperative relay to solve problem of sensing performance degradation due to CPE (Customer-Premises equipments) which causes low SNR (signal-to-noise ratio) problem. In cooperative communication system, AF (amplify-and-forward) and DF (decoded-and-forward) is widely used for relay mechanism. Also, it is expected that cooperative relay scheme guarantees the high sensing performance by its diversity gain. Based on these backgrounds, in this paper, we apply to cooperative relay scheme to the CR (Cognitive Radio) system, and simulation results show comparison of the sensing performance.
