In this paper, we propose a implementation approach of the high-speed feature extraction algorithm. The proposed method is based on the block type classification algorithm which reduces the computation time when target macro block is divided to smooth block type that has no image features. It is quantitatively identified that occurs at 29.5% of the total image using 200 standard test images with $64{\times}64$ macro block size. This means that within a standard test image containing various image information, 29.5% can reduce the complexity of the operation. When the proposed approach is applied to the Canny edge detection, the required latency of the edge detection can be completely eliminated, such as 2D derivative filter, gradient magnitude/direction computation, non-maximal suppression, adaptive threshold calculation, hysteresis thresholding. Also, it is expected that operation time of the feature detection can be reduced by applying block type classification algorithm to various feature extraction algorithms in this way.

Objectives : The purpose of this study is to review which acupoints and meridians are selected to treat visceral pain in articles published in international journals and to investigate quality of reporting acupuncture intervention according to the STRICTA guidelines. Methods : Electrical and hand search were conducted in PubMed, EMBASE, MEDLINE, and Cochrane Library for acupuncture studies on visceral pain in human and animals. Reporting quality of intervention was evaluated using the revised STRICTA guidelines. Results : We included 51 articles (7 clinical studies and 44 animal studies) in this study. The most frequently adopted meridians and acupoints were Stomach meridian, Spleen meridian, Conception Vessel meridian, and ST36, CV4, SP6, LI4, PC6, SP9, ST25, ST37 in clinical studies. In animal studies, Stomach meridian, Conception Vessel meridian, Pericardium meridian and ST36, ST37, CV12, PC6 were most frequently used. Animal studies showed significantly lower quality of reporting compared to clinical studies. According to the analysis on the effect of year of publication of articles, announcement of STRICTA guidelines did not improve the quality of reporting for studies on visceral pain. Conclusions : These results suggest that both proximal and distal acupoints based on meridian theory were used to study the underlying mechanisms of visceral pain both in human and animal studies. Guidelines of acupuncture intervention reporting for animal study is necessary to improve the quality of evidence, and it will also allow us the integrative understanding of the mechanisms and clinical effects of acupuncture treatment in human and animal.

Aircraft data network (ADN) is a data networking for signal transmission among avionic systems in aircraft, and it mostly has been applied MIL-STD-1553B that guarantees high reliability considering its application environments. However, commercial Ethernet has been widely applied for ADN recently, and its range of applications have increased. Ethernet provides high speed of data transmission, however, it could not guarantee quality of service (QoS) so high as MIL-STD-1553B. In this paper, we propose dynamic routing and priority based data transmission schemes in order to improve the QoS of legacy Ethernet. Our propose schemes can be applied to Ethernet switch, and it is able to manage network traffic efficiently, and reduce the time for data transmission. We analyze the packet transmission time for both legacy and proposed schemes in Ethernet environments using simulation, and we show that our proposed scheme can reduce the time for data transmission compare to legacy spanning tree protocol.

The study was conducted to investigate the effect of propolis on the increase of the immunity of honeybee bees by gradually administering the bees' propolis to bees. 0.16% and 0.3% 0.6% Propolis were administered at intervals of 2 weeks for 2 months, respectively, and 16 kinds of representative diseases of bees were tested. As a result, less bee disease was observed directly in the 0.3% propolis-administered group. In the next year, bees and a newborn bee showed a decrease in the incidence of bee disease and American foulbrood in bees administered with propolis. Based on the results of these studies, it was confirmed that propolis administration in bees helps to enhance immunity of bees and is effective in controlling American foulbrood.

With the help of various Layer 2 triggers, Fast Handover for Mobile IPv6 (FMIPv6) considerably reduces the latency and the signaling messages incurred by the handover. Obviously, if not secured, the protocol is exposed to various security threats and attacks. In order to protect FMIPv6, several security protocols have been proposed. To our best knowledge, there is lack of analysis and comparison study on them though the security in FMIPv6 is recognized to be important. Motivated by this, we provide an overview of the security protocols for FMIPv6, followed by the comparison analysis on them. Also, the security threats and requirements are outlined before the protocols are explored. The comparison analysis result shows that the protocol presented by You, Sakurai and Hori is more secure than others while not resulting in high computation overhead. Finally, we introduce Proxy MIPv6 and its fast handover enhancements, then emphasizing the need for a proper security mechanism for them as a future work.

The design of sand mat should be reviewed by the behaviour of excess pore pressure which is obtained by combining characteristics of soft ground with the permeability of sand mat. In this paper, in order to investigate the distribution of hydraulic gradient of sand mat, a banking model test was performed using dredged sand as materials of sand mat, and these results were compared by the numerical analysis results utilizing Terzaghi's consolidation equation. The results show that the pore pressure was influenced by the settlement increasing in the central area of sand mat as the height of embankment increases, and uprising speed of excess pore pressure due to residing water pressure is delayed compared with the results of numerical analysis. Finally, the construction of sand mat should be spreaded to reduce the increased hydraulic gradient at the central area of embankment.

Convolutional neural network (CNN) generally uses two-stream architecture RGB and optical flow stream for its action recognition function. RGB frames stream display appearance and optical flow stream interprets its action. However, the standard method of using optical flow is costly in its computational time and latency associated with increased action recognition. The purpose of the study was to evaluate a novel way to create a two sub-networks in neural networks. The optical flow sub-network was assigned as a teacher and the RGB frames as a student. In the training stage, the optical flow sub-network extracts features through the teacher sub-network and transmits the information to student sub-network for baseline training. In the test stage, only student sub-network was operational with decreased in latency without computing optical flow. Experimental results shows that our network fed only by RGB stream gets a competitive accuracy of 54.5% on HMDB51, which is 1.5 times better than that on R3D-18.

Electrochemistry of 1.0 mM bis(1,10-phenanthroline)copper(II) $(Cu(ph){_2}^{2+})$ in 100 mM NaCl solution including 27 mM $MgCl_2$ with and without sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) is studied. In the presence of SDS, $E_{pa}$ and $E_{1/2}$ of $Cu(ph){_2}^{2+}$ by adding $Mg^{2+}$ shifts to a positive direction compared to the SDS free. The intersection of two lines on ${\Delta}E_p$ vs -log[SDS] plot is determined as a critical micelle concentration (CMC). When $Mg^{2+}$ is added, it seems that the double layer became more compact. And the formation of micelles is retarded.

Purpose: A study was conducted to ensure the structural safety of a raised girder bridge with improved cross-sectional efficiency compared to the conventional PSC girder. For this purpose, the cross-sectional specifications such as girder length, height, and width were determined, the arrangement of the tendons was designed, and the practical performance of the raised girder under static and dynamic loads was verified. Method: The static performance experiment examined the serviceability limit state by measuring behavioral responses such as deflection and cracking to primary and secondary static loads. In addition, the dynamic load loading experiment measured the acceleration and displacement behavior response over time to calculate the natural frequency and damping ratio to examine the usability limit state. Result: As a result of the static performance test, the deflection value based on the maximum applied load showed stable behavior, and the crack width measured at the maximum applied load level was very small, satisfying the serviceability limit state. In addition, a natural frequency exceeding the natural frequency calculated during the design of the dynamic loading experiment was found, and a damping ratio that satisfies the current regulations was found to be secured.
