The purpose of this study was to evaluate the histologic change of the inferior alveolar nerve according to distraction amount following mandibular lengthening. Seven rabbits weighing about 2 kg were used. Corticotomy was performed on the mandibular body anterior to the right first premolar region and unilateral external fixation device was placed. Every effort was made to preserve the inferior alveolar nerve during the corticotomy. The rabbits were then allowed to heal for 7 days without distraction of the device. The mandible was lengthened 0.36 mm/day, 0.76 mm/day, or 1.0 mm/day. Corticotomy and lengthening of mandible were not performed in control group. After the completion of the lengthening process, a 14-day-consolidation period was allowed. After consolidation, rabbits were sacrificed, and histologic examination of the inferior alveolar nerve was performed. The results obtained were as follows : 1. In the control group, normal trifascicular pattern of inferior alveolar nerve was observed. Epineurium, perineurium, endoneurium, and axon with myelin sheath were observed in normal appearance. 2. In 0.36 mm/day distraction group, the trifascicular pattern was normally shown, and there was no destruction in epineurium, perineurium, and endoneurium. The mild changes including myelin attenuation, axoplasmic swelling and darkening were observed. 3. In 0.72 mm/day distraction group, it was possible to differentiate the epineurium from the perineurium. Two normal fascicles and one injuried fascicle were observed with a partially destructed perineurium. Most of the axons had axoplasmic swelling and darkening. 4. In 1 mm/day distraction group, it was difficult to differentiate the nerve structures such as fascicles, epineurium, perineurium, and endoneurium. The axons were severely destroyed, except few which showed decreases in size and changes in shape. Some collagen matrices were observed around the axons. These results suggest that the higher the distraction amount, the more severe the injury to the inferior alveolar nerve, fascicles, axons. Although distraction osteogenesis may be useful, the amount of distraction should be carefully selected.

Recently, RGB images and depth maps have been supplied to academic fields. The depth maps are utilized to the generation of stereoscopic images in the diverse formats according to the users' preference. A variety of methods that use depth maps have been introduced so far. One of applications is a medical field. In this area, the improvement of the perceptual quality of 2D medical images has gained much interest. In this paper, we propose a novel scheme that expands the conventional method to 3D stereoscopic image, thereby achieving the perceptual depth quality improvement as well as 3D stereoscopic perception enhancement at the same time. For this, contrast transformation as well as depth darkening are proposed and their performance is validated through the subjective test. Subjective experiments peformed for stereoscopic enhancement as well as visual fatigue validate that the proposed method achieves better 3D perception than the usage of the original stereoscopic image and suggests the limitation in terms of the visual fatigue.

In this study, we have investigated photo-induced changes of optical energy gap( $E_{OP)}$ and photoluminescence (PL) in amorphous ($\alpha$-) S $e_{100-x}$G $e_{x}$ (x=5, 25 and 33) thin films prepared by conventional thermal evaporation method. In the $\alpha$-S $e_{100-x}$G $e_{x}$ thin film, the $E_{OP}$ is obtained by a linear extrapolation of the ($\alpha$hν)$^{\frac{1}{2}}$ versus hν plot to the energy axis using the optical absorption coefficient ($\alpha$) calculated from the extinction coefficient k measured in the wavelength range of 290~900nm. Although the values of $\Delta$ $E_{OP}$ are very different, all films exhibit photo-induced photo-darkening (PD) effect that is a red shift of $E_{OP}$ . In particular, $\Delta$ $E_{OP}$ in $\alpha$-S $e_{75}$ G $e_{25}$ thin film exhibits the largest value (i, e., $\Delta$ $E^{OP}$ ~40meV for $\alpha$-S $e_{95}$ G $e_{5}$ , $\Delta$ $E_{OP}$ ~200meV for $\alpha$-S $e_{75}$ G $e_{25}$ , $\Delta$ $E_{OP}$ ~130meV for $\alpha$-S $e_{67}$ G $e_{33}$ ). PL spectra in $\alpha$-SeGe by hν$_{HeCd}$ have no-Stokes shift (SS) and show a tendency dependent on both composition and illumination time. We explain the energy-induced phenomena such as the PD and thermal bleaching, the native charged-defect generation and the no-SS PL, etc..the PD and thermal bleaching, the native charged-defect generation and the no-SS PL, etc..tc..

In this paper, I proposed the adaptive watermarking based on the discrete wavelet transform for the very robust watermarking against intentional distortion which attacks on image. A watermark is an binary image such as document(sign), and such watermark image is embedded in the LH and HL band of wavelet transformed domain for copyright protection of image data. To evaluate robustness of the proposed method, we applied some basic algorithm of image processing such as brightening, darkening, sharpening, blurring, cropping, histogram equalizing and lossy compression(JPEG, gif). As a result of experiment, the proposed method has the good image quality and the high perceptibility of watermark. It was demonstrated by experiments that the proposed algorithm can provide an excellent protection under various attacks.

This study was purposed to observe the advantages obtained from iridodiagnostics and automatic iridoscope or oriental medical doctors. In order to study the iridodiagnostics, 5 case-researches were made as the first step. The results were obtained as follows. 1. First of all, the formation of darkening area must be paid attentionally with toxic spot and lacunain relation to the interpretation of present illness. 2. The theoretical concepts about structure in iridodiagnostics and oriental medicine were same. 3. The constitutional type of iridodiagnostics played a important role in concluding the nature and background of symptoms. 4. Most of iris signs reflected the histological changes of body structure equally, and successive study about the difference of visceral scheme between iridology and Oriental Medicine would be needed in the future.

The pathogenicity of viral hemorrhagic septicemia virus (VHSV) from olive flounder Paralichthys olivaceus was investigated with masu salmon Oncorhynchus masou fry. The cumulative mortality of fish challenged with FYeosu05 isolate at $10^{6.5}$ $TCID_{50}$/fish was 60%. No mortality was observed in fish challenged with the isolates at $10^{5.5}$ $TCID_{50}$/fish and in mock-challenged fish. The affected fish showed darkening of the body, expanded abdomen, pale gills and enlarged spleen. VHSV from $10^{6.3}$ to $10^{7.8}$ $TCID_{50}$/g-tissue was re-isolated from the dead fish. These results suggest that the VHSV from olive flounder is pathogenic to masu salmon fry, although with low virulence.

This study explores the degree of velarization of English word-final /l/ (i.e., /l/-darkness) according to the lexical status. Lexical status is defined as whether a speech stimulus is considered as a word or a non-word. We examined the temporal and spectral properties of word-final /l/ in terms of the duration and the frequency difference of F2-F1 values by varying the immediate pre-liquid vowels. The result showed that both temporal and spectral properties were contrastive across all vowel contexts in the way of real words having shorter [l] duration and low F2-F1 values, compared to non-words. That is, /l/ is more heavily velarized in words than in non-words, which suggests that lexical status whether language users encode the speech signal as a word or not is deeply involved in their speech production.

근적외영역의 타이탄 측광영상에서 나타나는 주연감광(Limb Darkening) 및 주연증광(Limb Brightening) 현상의 원인을 설명하기 위해 구면기하(spherical geometry)에 의한 효과 외에 헤이즈(haze) 자체의 성질 변화량을 추정해 본다. 근적외영역의 강한 메탄 흡수 밴드 부근에서 타이탄의 대기를 관측하면 파장에 따라 표면 부근에서 성층권 사이의 정보를 얻을 수 있으며, 이를 복사전달모델과 비교해 대기 중에 존재하는 연무 입자의 성질을 유추할 수 있다. 관측자료는 2006년 2월 Gemini/North Observatory의 Near-Infrared Integral Field Spectrometer(NIFS)를 이용해 얻은 측 분광 자료를 사용하였다. NIFS의 공간분해능은 화소당 0.05"로, 타이탄의 적도부분을 약 17화소로 분해할 수 있으므로, 각 지역별로 분광선 모델을 만들어 관측자료와 비교하는 데에 용이하였다.

We considered the ion and photo-induced properties as a function of wavelength by exposing the light over the band gap of a-Ag/a-$Se_{75}$$Ge_{25}$ and the low-energy defocused $Ga^{+}$ ion beam on Ag/a-$Se_{75}$$Ge_{25}$ thin film. This film acts as a negative resist for photo or ion beam lithography. We observed that the absorbance coefficient decreased with increasing the photo-exposing time and exposing the ion beam. The bandgap shifts toward longer wavelength called a "darkening effect" are observed in the films exposed to both photons and ions. We suggest that a primary step in the Ag layer and a secondary step is in a-$Se_{75}$$Ge_{25}$ film layer.
