Background: Despite tension type headache is popular, the exact mechanism and method of treatment are not certain yet. So, we supposed the basic mechanism of tension type headache is myogenic, and did Tienchu acupoint block, occipital nerve block, and trigger point injection in tension type headache patients. Methods: Fifty-seven tension type headache patients were treated with local anesthetics and small dose of steroid. The intensity of pain and effect of every treatment was evaluated as Verbal Rating Score (VRS; 0~10) before and after every treatment. Evaluation of treatment was based on the time of treatment (1,2 times, 3 times, 4,5 times). Goal of treatment was VRS reaching below two point and it was considered as treated state. Results: Symptom improvement rates of each treatment were 90% (1, 2 times), 91% (3 times), 70% (4, 5 times) respectively. VRS reduction more than 50% rates were 60%, 64%, 60% respectively. Treated state (VRS<2) rates were 33%, 27%, 30% respectively. Conclusion: Tienchu acupoint block, occipital nerve block, trigger point injection were sorts of most effective and simply applicable modalities of treatment in tension type headache.

A fifteen-year-old spayed female Pug was referred to Veterinary Medical Teaching Hospital of Seoul National University. The clinical sign was a restriction of the movement of the headneck and acutely presented for 5 days ago. On the basis of physical, laboratory and radiological examinations, the dog was diagnosed acute torticollis (wry neck). We treated two times the dog with acupuncture therapy for 2 weeks. The acupuncture points BL10, BL11, LU7 and SI3 were used. When the dog was rechecked at three weeks after the therapy, torticollis was disappeared and voluntarily head movement found. Thus, it is suggested that traditional acupuncture might be effective therapy for acute torticollis.

This paper describes, in order to extract contour from topographic map image, an adaptive segment-length thresholding using a threshold depended on target image. First of all, after recognizing the primary symbols and detecting two edges from the projection histogram of the elevation value area, the threshold value is determined by the distance between the edges. Then, the subdivision is peformed by searching a branch point and erasing its neighboring Hack pixels. And contour components are extracted by segment-length thresholding. The experimental result shows that the final image contains non-contour component of 2.41% and contour one of 97.59%.

본 논문은 영어-한국어 교차언어 정보검색의 질의어 번역에 대한 중요한 자원으로 활용되는 병렬 말뭉치의 품질 향상을 위해서, 위키피디아의 비교 말뭉치로부터 자동으로 병렬 문장을 추출하여 활용하는 기법을 제안한다. 기존 연구에서 질의어 번역을 위해 위키피디아의 이중 어휘 사전 및 동의어, 다의어 정보를 구축하고, 기 기축된 병렬 말뭉치와 함께 활용하여 여러 의미를 가진 번역 후보 단어들 중, 최적의 단어를 선택하는 방법을 이용하고 있다. 여기서 활용되는 병렬 말뭉치는 질의어 번역에서 가장 중요한 자원이다. 하지만, 기 구축된 병렬 말뭉치는 양이 적거나, 특정 영역을 중심으로 구성되어 있는 문제가 있다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해, 본 논문은 위키피디아로부터 자동 병렬 문장 추출 기법을 이용, 대량의 영어-한국어 간 병렬 말뭉치를 구축하고, 이를 교차언어 정보검색을 위한 질의어 번역에 적용하여 개선을 보인다. 실험의 성능 비교를 위해서 NTCIR-5 데이터를 이용하였으며 기 구축된 세종 병렬 말뭉치를 활용한 질의어 번역의 성능이 MAP 31.5%, R-P 33.0%에서, 새롭게 구축한 위키피디아 병렬 말뭉치를 활용한 질의어 번역의 성능이 MAP 34.6%, R-P 34.6%로, 각각 MAP 3.1%와 R-P 1.6%의 성능 향상을 보였다.

Current research trends of solar cells has focused on the high conversion efficiency and low-cost production technology. Passivation technology that can be easily adapted to mass production. Therefore, this study conducted experiments with aim of the following two methods for the fabrication of high-efficiency crystalline silicon solar cells. In the first task, an attempt is formation of local Al-BSF to a number of locally doped dots to increase the conversion efficiency of solar cells to reduce the loss of $V_{oc}$ overcome. The second major task, rear surface apply in $Al_2O_3/SiN_x$ stack layer, $Al_2O_3$ prominent negative fixed charge characteristics. As the result of task, Local Al-BSF and $Al_2O_3/SiN_x$ stack layer applied to the p-type single crystalline silicon solar cells, the average $V_{oc}$ of 644mV, $I_{sc}$ of 918mV and conversion efficiency of 18.70% were obtained.

This paper is aimed to clarify field technique of non-educated constructors in timber structure of korean-style secondary station(Gong-So) on the annex of catholic church. The main object of this study is Sin-Sung and Su-Bun secondary stations which post-lintel structure was 2high columns(Go-Ju) 5beams(Ryang) in Jeon-Buk area of Korea. We reached the following conclusion. Firstly, these secondary stations are required a lots of space for number of persons with the introduction of basilica plane. These plans have different intervals in the layout. Secondly, they constructed the holy space by using high columns(Nae-Jin-Go-Ju). The former problems of plan layout are sloved by reinforcement and replacement eaves and rafter of logitudinal. Thirdly, the elements showed the natural feature such as irregular wooden floor, arch-type head pentrating tie and a ceiling. In the end, we knew that non-educated constructor had found a way in the problem for accepting unreasonable work.

In this study, an anthropomorphic robot Hand, called "SKKU Hand III" is presented. The hand has thirteen DOF(Degree-Of-Freedom) and is designed based on the skeletal structure of the human hand. Each finger module(except thumb module) has three DOF and four joints with a saddle joint mechanism which has two DOF at the base joint. Two distal joints of the finger module are mechanically coupled by a timing belt and pulleys. The thumb module is composed of a finger module and an additional actuator, which makes it possible to realize the opposition between the thumb and the other fingers. In addition, the palm DOF of the human hand is mimicked with a spatial link mechanism between the index finger and the thumb. Thus, it can grasp objects more stably and more strongly. For the modularization of the robotic hand all the driving circuits are embedded in the hand, and only the communication lines supporting CAN protocol with DC power cable are given as an interface. Therefore, it is possible to apply it to any robot system the interface. To validate the feasibility of the SKKU Hand III, a series of the representative grasp experiments such as power, precision, intermediate grasp etc. are carried out with the object around us and its operation is demonstrated.

In National Central Museum, we recently preserved paper cultural assets, such as ancient maps, books and antique documents etc, to prepare "A Dynamic World of External Relations in Goryeo & Joseon Dynasty". The paper cultural assets generally react sensitively to their environments; temperature, humidity, light and physical force acting. Biological damages, which are caused by microbe, contraction, swelling and damage from insects occurred. Wrinkles on relics, which are made my physical force, stains on relics which are due to moisture, weakening of adhesive strength and damages from insects were found during the recent preservation handling. Therefore we are trying to find out any damage, which could be occurred in paper cultural assets and introduce brief emergency operation to prevent the damages and develop the preservation handling.

In this paper, we introduce a underwater ranging algorithm with Look-up Table (LUT) by modifying the existing method which is using the changes of angles of accoustic rays with SSP (Sound Speed Profile). We compare the horizontal distance errors and the calculation times. Our new algorithm exploits Time of Arriva l(ToA) - horizontal distance table based on SSP. This algorithm offers faster calculation speed than the previous one with the slight increase of the distance estimation error.

A quantum light source is an essential element for quantum information technology, including quantum communication, quantum sensor, and quantum computer. Quantum light sources including photon number state, entangled state, and squeezed state can be divided into two types according to the generation mechanism, namely single emitter and non-linear based systems. The single emitter platform contains atom/ion trap, solid-state defect/color center, two-dimensional material, and semiconductor quantum dot, which can emit deterministic photons. The non-linear based platform contains spontaneous parametric down-conversion and spontaneous four-wave mixing, which can emit probabilistic photon pairs. For each platform, we give an overview of the recent research trends of the generation, manipulation, and integration of single photon and entangled photon sources. The characteristics of quantum light sources are investigated for each platform. In addition, we briefly introduce quantum sensing, quantum communication, and quantum computing applications based on quantum light sources. We discuss the challenges and prospects of quantum light sources for quantum information technology.
