This study proposes measures and methods to reduce healthcare associated infections by comparing and analyzing the bacterial contamination level before and after putting on personal protective equipment (PPE) on the test equipment and the contact infected patients getting chest PA projections. Among the 50 inpatients who were diagnosed with C. difficile, MRSA, and VRE, 28 patients who were instructed to undergo chest PA projection and follow-up were chosen, The 3 parts that come in contact with the detector, chin, chest, and hands, were designated for all, and the bacterial contamination level before and after disinfection and before and after putting PPE was determined. Statistical analysis was performed using Medcalc version 14, and quantitative analysis was performed using paired student t-test, with statistical significance being noted at p<0.05. Results for the comparison of the mean values before and after disinfection of the detector, chin (3.000), chest (2.000), and hands (3.430), showed that the number of bacteria after disinfection was lower than it was before disinfection. Analyzing for each part before and after disinfection, there were statistically significant differences for the chin, chest, and hands (p<0.01). Results for the comparison of the mean values before and after putting on PPE, chin (2.202), chest (2.140), and hands (4.213), showed that the number of bacteria after putting on PPE was lower than it was before putting on PPE. Analyzing for each part before and after putting on PPE, there were statistically significant differences for the chin, chest, and hands (p<0.03). As a result, it was confirmed that the number of bacteria after putting on PPE was lower than it was before putting it on. In the future, expanding the research scope for contact infected patients will establish standards for quarantine guidelines depending on the way it spreads, and contribute to the prevention of healthcare associated infections.

본 논문에서는 컬러 영상에서 색상과 에지 정보를 이용한 얼굴 영역 검출 알고리즘을 제안한다. 제안된 알고리즘은 YCbCr 색공간에서 Cb와 Cr성분을 이용하여 피부색 분할을 한 후에 형태학적 필터링과 레이블링을 통해 얼굴 후보 영역을 분리한다. 분리된 각 후보 영역에 대해 휘도 성분 Y에서 소벨 마스크의 수직 연산자를 적용한 후에 수평 투영을 통해 나타난 최대값을 눈의 위치로 검출해낸다. 비슷하게 얼굴의 지형적인 특징과 소벨 마스크의 수평 연산자를 적용하여 계산된 수평 투영의 최대값에 따라 턱 부분을 검출한다. 실험 결과, 기존의 연구와 검출율을 비슷하면서도 턱의 위치를 검출함으로써 목 부분이 얼굴 영역에 포함되는 것을 방지할 수 있음을 볼 수 있다.

Objective: The purpose of this study was to investigate the influence of heritability on the craniofacial soft tissue cephalometric characteristics of monozygotic (MZ) twins, dizygotic (DZ) twins, and their siblings (SIB). Methods: The samples comprised Korean adult twins and their siblings (mean age, 39.8 years; MZ group, n = 36 pairs; DZ group, n = 13 pairs of the same gender; and SIB group, n = 26 pairs of the same gender). Thirty cephalometric variables were measured to characterize facial profile, facial height, soft-tissue thickness, and projection of nose and lip. Falconer's method was used to calculate heritability (low heritability, $h^2$ < 0.2; high heritability, $h^2$ > 0.9). After principal components analysis (PCA) was performed to extract the models, we calculated the intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) value and heritability of each component. Results: The MZ group exhibited higher ICC values for all cephalometric variables than DZ and SIB groups. Among cephalometric variables, the highest ${h^2}_{(MZ-DZ)}$ and ${h^2}_{(MZ-SIB)}$ values were observed for the nasolabial angle (NLA, 1.544 and 2.036), chin angle (1.342 and 1.112), soft tissue chin thickness (2.872 and 1.226), and upper lip thickness ratio (1.592 and 1.026). PCA derived eight components with 84.5% of a cumulative explanation. The components that exhibited higher values of ${h^2}_{(MZ-DZ)}$ and ${h^2}_{(MZ-SIB)}$ were PCA2, which includes facial convexity, NLA, and nose projection (1.026 and 0.972), and PCA7, which includes chin angle and soft tissue chin thickness (2.107 and 1.169). Conclusions: The nose and soft tissue chin were more influenced by genetic factors than other soft tissues.

Objective: To investigate the effects of frontal facial type (FFT) and sex on preferred chin projection (CP) in three-dimensional (3D) facial images. Methods: Six 3D facial images were acquired using a 3D facial scanner (euryprosopic [Eury-FFT], mesoprosopic [Meso-FFT], and leptoprosopic [Lepto-FFT] for each sex). After normal CP in each 3D facial image was set to $10^{\circ}$ of the facial profile angle (glabella-subnasale-pogonion), CPs were morphed by gradations of $2^{\circ}$ from normal (moderately protrusive [$6^{\circ}$], slightly protrusive [$8^{\circ}$], slightly retrusive [$12^{\circ}$], and moderately retrusive [$14^{\circ}$]). Seventy-five dental students (48 men and 27 women) were asked to rate the CPs ($6^{\circ}$, $8^{\circ}$, $10^{\circ}$, $12^{\circ}$, and $14^{\circ}$) from the most to least preferred in each 3D image. Statistical analyses included the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test, Kruskal-Wallis test, and Bonferroni correction. Results: No significant difference was observed in the distribution of preferred CP in the same FFT between male and female evaluators. In Meso-FFT, the normal CP was the most preferred without any sex difference. However, in Eury-FFT, the slightly protrusive CP was favored in male 3D images, but the normal CP was preferred in female 3D images. In Lepto-FFT, the normal CP was favored in male 3D images, whereas the slightly retrusive CP was favored in female 3D images. The mean preferred CP angle differed significantly according to FFT (Eury-FFT: male, $8.7^{\circ}$, female, $9.9^{\circ}$; Meso-FFT: male, $9.8^{\circ}$, female, $10.7^{\circ}$; Lepto-FFT: male, $10.8^{\circ}$, female, $11.4^{\circ}$; p < 0.001). Conclusions: Our findings might serve as guidelines for setting the preferred CP according to FFT and sex.

A limitation is assumed that In this paper, a generalized method is proposed to extract a period of a motion of on object. To detect a periodic motion, we put restrictions on a stationary camera and on a motion of an object. We ca derive the necessary and sufficient condition that an image sequence consists of the projection of the periodic motion by the affine transformation that is a reasonally good approach to the perspective projection. The difficulty of detecting its periodic motion is to select its have period in sequence and to define its width.

Topographical images, in case of aerial or satellite images, are usually similar in colors and textures, and complex in shapes. Thus we have to use shape features of images for efficiently retrieving a query image from topographical image databases. In this paper, we propose a shape feature extraction method which is suitable for topographical images. This method, which improves the existing projection in the Cartesian coordinates, performs the projection operation in the polar coordinates. This method extracts three attributes, namely the number of region pixels, the boundary pixel length of the region from the centroid, the number of alternations between region and background, along each angular direction of the polar coordinates. It extracts the features of complex shape objects which may have holes and disconnected regions. An advantage of our method is that it is invariant to rotation/scale/translation of images. Finally we show the advantages of our method through experiments by comparing it with CSS which is one of the most successful methods in the area of shape feature extraction

Multiresoluton analysis(MRA) of space of square integrable functions defined on whole entire line has been well-known. But for many applications, MRA on bounded interval was required and studied. In this paper we give a MRA for $L^2$(0, 1) by means of periodic wavelets based on regular MRA for $L^2$(R) and give the convergence of partial sums.

5개의 건조두개골의 하악과두에 인위적으로 골증식체를 형성한 후 수직각 25°, 수평각 0°를 부여한 transcranial 촬영법과 두부규격 방사선 촬영기를 이용한 transmaxillary 촬영법을 시행하여 얻은 90매의 transcranial 및 45매의 transmaxillary방사선사진을 통해 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 1. transcranial 촬영법에서 골증식체가 하악과두의 상중부에 있을 때 폐구시에 관찰이 용이하였으나 (p<0.05), 그 이외의 부위에서는 통계학적인 유의성이 없었다(p>0.05). 2. 골증식체가 하악과두의 내부 및 중부 (p<0.05)에 위치하였을 때는 transmaxillary 촬영법에서 관찰이 더 용이하였으며 외부에 위치하였을 때는 통계학적인 유의성이 없었다 (p>0.05). 3. 골증식체가 하악과두의 상방(p<0.05) 및 후방(p<0.01.)에 위치하였을 때는 trans maxillary 촬영법에서 관찰이 더 용이하였으며 전방에 위치하였을 때는 통계학적인 유의성이 없었다. (p>0.05). 4. Transcranial 촬영법에서는 골증식체가 하악과두의 측방으로 위치할수록(p<0.01), transmaxillary 촬영법에서는 후방으로 위치할수록(p<0.35) 관찰이 용이하였다.
