연구목적: 코로나바이러스감염증-19(COVID-19)의 국가재난상황에서 정상적인 교육운영이 어려웠다. 비대면 교육은 기존의 교육의 대안이 될 수 있지만 동일한 수준의 교육을 제공하기란 쉬운 일은 아니다. 본 연구에서는 재난분야 교수자가 비대면교육의 전반적인 운영과 진행 등에서 발생할 수 있는 문제점을 파악하고 이를 통해서 비대면교육의 개선방안을 모색한다. 연구방법: 비대면 실시간 교육을 크게 수업이전(Pre-class), 수업 중(In-class), 수업 이후(Post-class) 로 분류하여 교수자의 설문조사와 인터뷰를 통해 개선점을 파악 하였다. 연구결과 및 결론: 조사결과를 정리하면 다음과 같다. 첫째, 수업이전에는 교수자를 위한 비대면 교육공간을 제공하는 것도 고려해볼만 하고 비대면 교육장비와 시스템에 대한 사전교육의 필요성이 요구되었다. 또한 수업에 관한 공지를 충분히 함으로써 교육이 원활하게 운영 될 수 있도록 해야 하고 실습교육을 위한 비대면 교육 프로그램 개발에 대한 노력이 필요해 보인다. 둘째, 비대면 수업 중에는 교수자와 학습자 그리고 학습자간의 의사소통이 중요한 요소가 될 수 있다. 이를 위해 토론식 수업을 적극 활용하여 학습자의 교육 참여를 이끌고, 끊임없는 상호작용을 통해 교육효과를 높여야 할 필요가 있다. 셋째, 비대면 수업이후에는 영상기록물로 인한 사생활 보호에 관한 정책을 마련해 사전에 교수자의 사생활을 보호해야 하고 교육 자료에 대한 저작권침해 부분 역시 고려되어야 할 것이다. 또한 공정하고 객관적인 평가를 위해 다양한 방법을 고안해야 할 필요가 있다. 인터뷰 결과를 살펴보면 비대면 교육의 구성요소인 콘텐츠에서는 비대면 교육이 교육 설계부터 비대면 교육에 맞는 교육 인원, 내용, 커리큘럼에 대한 세밀한 계획이 요구된다고 할 수 있다. 시스템에서는 교수자가 비대면 수업을 하기 전 프로그램에 대한 사전교육을 통해서 교수가 프로그램의 기능을 충분히 익히고 숙지할 수 있는 시간을 줄 필요가 있고 비대면 교육 전 사전점검을 철저히 하고 만일의 문제에 대비하여 신속하게 해결할 수 있는 helpdesk를 운영을 할 필요가 있다.

전자정부를 포함한 다양한 형태의 공공서비스가 제공됨에 따라 공공서비스 품질에 대한 국민의 요구 수준이 점점 높아지고 있다. 공공서비스의 품질을 높이기 위해서 공공서비스 품질에 대한 상시적 측정과 개선이 필요함에도 불구하고 전통적인 설문조사는 비용과 시간이 많이 소요되어 한계가 있다. 따라서 공공서비스에서 발생하는 데이터를 기반으로 원하는 시점에 언제라도 공공서비스의 품질을 빠르고 정확하게 측정할 수 있는 분석적 기법이 필요하다. 본 연구에서 공공서비스의 품질을 데이터 기반으로 분석하기 위해 N시의 건축 인허가 민원 서비스를 대상으로 프로세스 마이닝 기법을 이용하여 분석하였다. N시의 건축 인허가 민원 서비스는 분석에 필요한 데이터를 확보할 수 있고 공공서비스 품질관리를 통해 타 기관으로 확산 가능할 것으로 판단되었기 때문이다. 본 연구는 2014년 1월부터 2년 동안 N시에서 발생한 총 3678건의 건축 인허가 민원 서비스에 대해 프로세스 마이닝을 실시하여 프로세스 맵을 그리고 빈도가 높은 부서와 평균작업시간이 긴 부서를 파악하였다. 분석 결과에 따르면 특정 시점에 한 부서별로 업무가 몰리거나 상대적으로 업무가 적은 경우가 발생하였다. 또한 민원의 부하가 늘 경우 민원완료까지 걸리는 시간이 늘어날 것이라는 합리적인 의심을 하였으나 분석 결과 상관관계는 크게 없었다. 분석 결과에 따르면 민원완료까지 걸리는 시간은 당일처리에서 1년 146일까지 매우 다양하게 분포하였다. '하수처리과,' '수도과,' '도시디자인과,' '녹색성장과'의 상위 4개 부서의 누적빈도가 전체의 50%를 넘고 상위 9개 부서의 누적빈도가 70%를 넘어서는 등 빈도가 높은 부서는 한정적이며 부서 간 부하의 불균형이 심했다. 대부분의 민원 서비스는 서로 다른 다양한 패턴의 프로세스를 갖고 있었다. 본 연구의 결과를 활용하면 특정 시점에 민원의 부하가 큰 부서를 찾아내 부서 간 인력 배치를 탄력적으로 운영할 수 있을 것이다. 또한 민원 특성별 협의에 참여하는 부서의 패턴을 분석한 결과, 협의 부서 요청 시 자동화 혹은 추천에 활용할 수 있는 가능성이 보인다. 본 연구는 민원 서비스에 대한 프로세스 마이닝 분석을 통해 향후 공공서비스 품질 개선방향을 제시하는데 활용될 것으로 기대한다.

본 논문에서는 기준신호를 나타내는 하나의 파일럿채널과 다수의 트래픽채널을 갖는 DS/CDMA용 송수신기구조를 제안한다. 파일럿채널은 데이타 변조가 되지 않은 순수 PN 부호성분을 전송하며 수신단에서 PN 동기 및 동기복조의 기준신호로 이용한다. 또한 이러한 구조는 순방향뿐만 아니라 역방향 링크에도 적용된다. 제안된 DS/CDMA 방식의 특징은 다음과 같다. 첫째, 트래픽채널의 확산 방식은 I-phase 및 Q-phase의 확산부호를 파일럿채널의 그것과 교차하게 배치한 interlaced quardrature-spreading(IQS) 구조를 갖는데 이는 기존의 확산방식에 비해 데이타 신호의 영교차율을 줄여 송신단 출력신호 레벨의 변화를 작게한다. 둘째, PN부호의 초기동기 및 동기초적시 임계값을 적응적으로 자동설정하며, 초기동기시 PN 부호를 한 칩씩 이동하게 하여, 기존의 방식에 비해 초기동기 시간을 절반으로 줄이게 했으며, 수신부에서 PN 부호 발생기를 하나만 사용하여 초기동기 및 동기추적이 되게했다. 또한 state machine을 이용하여 재동기 timing을 자동설정 하도록 설계했다. 셋째, 본 방식에서는 자동주파수조절(automatic frequency control: AFC)기능, 입력신호의 크기에 따라 능동적으로 유효한 출력 레벨을 조절하는 자동 레벨조절(automatic level control: ALC)기능, bit-error-rate(BER)을 자동계산하는 기능, 인접 채널과의 간섭을 최소화하기 위한 스펙트럼 성형기능 등을 도입하여 사용자 편의를 도모했다. 넷째, 데이타 전송속도를 16Kbps~1.024Mbps로 가변이 되게함으로써 다양한 응용에 대처할 수 있게 설계했다. 한편, 본 논문에서 제안한 DS/CDMA 모뎀구조는 다양한 simulation을 통하여, 알고리즘 검증 과정을 거쳤으며, 제안된 DS/CDMA 모뎀 구조는 VHDL을 이용하여 ASIC으로 구현하였다. DS/CDMA용 ASIC은 송신부 ASIC과 수신부 ASIC으로 나누어 개발 하였으며, 한개의 ASIC당 3개의 채널을 동시에 수용할 수 있으며, 다수의 ASIC을 사용하여 여러 채널의 다중접속이 가능하다. 제작완료된 ASIC은 기능시험을 완료했으며 실제 line-of-sight(LOS) 시스템 구현에 적용중이다.

이 연구에서 Asia 금융 위기의 원인을 고찰하여 보고, European Monetary Systems의 금융 위기와 비교하여 본다. Asian 신흥 국가들은 1997년도에 금융 위기를 경험하였고, European Monetary Systems의 국가들도 1992년도에 동일한 경험을 하였다. 또한, 중남미의 신흥 경제국가인 Mexico 역시 1994년에 금융위기를 겪었다. 이 연구의 목적은 이들 금융위기의 내면을 고찰하고 그 결과로부터 일반화된 법칙을 추출하는 것이다. 이 연구에서는 금융위기를 경험한 한국과 영국과 멕시코를 각각 세가지 다른 모형으로 연구하고 비교하였다. 이 접근 방법은 체계적인 조사를 통하여 세 국가의 차이점을 보여주고 또한 공통적인 내재 요인을 관찰한다. 이전의 많은 연구 방법들은 대부분 선형 회귀식을 통한 causal model에 초점을 맞추고 있지만, 이러한 선형 회귀 모형의 약점을 보완하여서 현실에 산재하며 존재하는 비 선형의 문제를 해결하기 위하여 또 다른 방법을 제안하여 본다. 이 연구에서 사용한 구조 방정식(Structural Equation Model) 모형은 현실로부터 원인을 추출하고 분석하는 연구에 적합하며, 신경망(Artificial Neural Network) 모형은 선형모형의 단점을 보완하여서 비 선형 요인을 설명해 준다. 구조방정식 모형에 적용하기 위하여서 LISREL(LInear Structural RELationship)을 사용하였다. LISREL은 확인적 요인분석과 계량경제학에서 개발된 연립방정식모델에 토대를 둔 다중회귀분석 및 경로분석 등이 결합된 성격을 갖는 방법론으로 다양한 연구에 적용된다. 또한 인공지능(Artificial Intelligence) 기법 중의 하나인 신경망 모형은 선형회귀 분석과 다른 형태의 결과를 도출한다. 세가지 방법론의 우수성을 비교하기 위하여 Hit ratio를 각 국가/ 각 방법론 별로 구분하여서 비교한 결과 다른 방법론 보다 신경망이 더 좋은 성과를 나타내고 있는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 세가지 방법론에 각각 일반적인 환율 예측에 사용되는 변수를 사용하였다. 소비자 물가지수(Consumer Price Index), 국내총생산(Gross Domestic Product), 이자율(Interest rate), 주가지수(Stock Index), 경상수지(Current Account), 외환보유고(Foreign Reserves)의 6가지 변수를 이용하여서 환율을 예측하여서 급격한 환율 변화로 초래되는 경제위기를 예측하려고 하였다. 각각의 국가의 데이터는 대한민국은 1991년부터 1999년까지, 영국은 1986년부터 1995년까지, 멕시코는 1988년부터 1998년까지의 기간을 정하여서 시계열자료를 분기별로 사용하였다. 각각의 데이터는 Data Stream과 한국은행(Bank of Korea)의 데이터를 이용하여서 분석하였다. 선형회귀방정식을 이용한 분석과 구조방정식인 LISREL을 이용한 분석은 각각 Hit ratio가 국가별로 순위가 변동되기도 하였으나, 인공지능 방법론인 인공신경망의 경우는 모든 국가에서 가장 좋은 예측 결과를 나타내고 있었다. 이 논문은 환율의 변동에 대한 다양한 예측 모형을 비교하고 평가하여서 연구에서 제시하는 개념을 검토하였다는 점에서 의의를 갖는다.

1985년 N. Koblitz와 V. Miller가 각각 독립적으로 제안한 타원곡선 암호시스템(ECC : Elliptic Curve Cryptosystems)은 보다 짧은 비트 길이의 키만으로도 다른 공개키 시스템과 동일한 수준의 안전도를 유지할 수 있다는 장점을 인해 IC 카드와 같은 메모리와 처리능력이 제한된 하드웨어에도 이식가능 하다. 또한 동일한 유한체 연산을 사용하면서도 다른 타원곡선을 선택할 수 있어서 추가적인 보안이 가능하기 때문에 고수준의 안전도를 유지하기 위한 차세대 암호 알고리즘으로 각광 받고 있다. 본 논문에서는 효율적인 타원곡선 암호시스템을 구현하는데 있어 가장 중요한 부분 중 하나인 타원곡선 상의 점을 고속으로 연산할 수 있는 전용의 기저체 연산기 구조를 제안하고 실제 구현을 통해 그 기능을 검증한다. 그리고 기저체 연산의 면밀한 분석을 통해 역원 연산기의 하드웨어 구현을 위하여 최적인 단위 연산항의 도출에 기반을 둔 효율적인 방법론을 제시하고, 이를 바탕으로 현실적인 제한 조건하에서 구현 가능한 수준의 게이트 수를 가지는 고속의 역원 연산기 구조를 제안한다. 또한, 본 논문에서는 제안된 방법론을 바탕으로 실제 구현된 설계회로가 기존 논문에서 비해 게이트 수는 약 8.8배가 증가하지만, 승법연산 속도는 약 150배, 역원연산 속도는 약 480배 정도 향상되는 우수한 연구 결과가 얻어짐을 보인다. 이것은 병렬성을 적용함으로서 당연히 얻어지는 속도면에서의 이득을 능가하는 성능으로, 본 논문에서 제안한 구조의 우수성을 입증하는 결과이다. 실제로, 승법 연산기의 속도에 관계없이 역원연산의 수행시간은 [lo $g_2$(m-1)]$\times$(clock cycle for one multiplication)으로 최적화가 되며, 제안한 구조는 임의의 유한체 $F_{2m}$에 적용가능하다. 제안한 전용의 연산기는 암호 프로세서 설계의 기초자료로 활용되거나, 타원곡선 암호 시스템 구현시 직접 co-processor 형식으로 임베드 되어 사용할 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.다.

The wall shear stress in the vicinity of end-to end anastomoses under steady flow conditions was measured using a flush-mounted hot-film anemometer(FMHFA) probe. The experimental measurements were in good agreement with numerical results except in flow with low Reynolds numbers. The wall shear stress increased proximal to the anastomosis in flow from the Penrose tubing (simulating an artery) to the PTFE: graft. In flow from the PTFE graft to the Penrose tubing, low wall shear stress was observed distal to the anastomosis. Abnormal distributions of wall shear stress in the vicinity of the anastomosis, resulting from the compliance mismatch between the graft and the host artery, might be an important factor of ANFH formation and the graft failure. The present study suggests a correlation between regions of the low wall shear stress and the development of anastomotic neointimal fibrous hyperplasia(ANPH) in end-to-end anastomoses. 30523 T00401030523 ^x Air pressure decay(APD) rate and ultrafiltration rate(UFR) tests were performed on new and saline rinsed dialyzers as well as those roused in patients several times. C-DAK 4000 (Cordis Dow) and CF IS-11 (Baxter Travenol) reused dialyzers obtained from the dialysis clinic were used in the present study. The new dialyzers exhibited a relatively flat APD, whereas saline rinsed and reused dialyzers showed considerable amount of decay. C-DAH dialyzers had a larger APD(11.70$\pm$1.32mmHg/min)compared to CF dialyzers(4.32$\pm$0.55mmHg/min)(p<0.05). However, there was no observable difference in the UFR between the two dialyzers. Neither APD nor UFR showed any significant increase with an increasing number of reuses for up to more than 20reuses. A substantial number of failures observed in APD(larger than 20mmHe/min)on the reused dialyzers(2 out of 40 CP and S out 26 C-DAK) were attributed to the Possible damage on the fibers. The CF 15-11 HFDs which failed APD test did not show changes in the UFR compared to normal dialyzers indicating that APD is a more sensitive test than UFR test to evaluate the integrity of the fibers. 30527 T00401030527 ^x For quantitative measurement of reflected light from a clinical diagnostic strip, a prototype old reflectance photometer was designed. The strip loader and cassette were made to obtain more accurate reflectance parameters. The strip was illuminated at 45˚c through optical fiber and the intensity of reflected light was determined at rectanguLat angle using a photodiode. The kubelka-munk coefficient and reflection optical density were determined ar four different wavelengths(500, 550, 570 and 610nm) for blood glucose strip. For higher concentration than 300mg/41 about glucose, a saturation state of abforbance was observed at 500, 550 and 570nm. The correlation between glucose concentration and parameters was the best at 610nm. 30535 T00401030535 ^x Radiation-induced fibrosarcoma tumors were grown on the flanks of C3H mice. The mice were divided into two groups. One group was injected with Photofrin II, intravenously (2.5mg/kg body weight). The other group received no Photofrin II. Mice from both groups were irradialed for approximately 15 minutes at 100, 300, or 500 mW/cm2 with the argon (488nm/514.5 nm), dye(628nm) and gold vapor (pulsed 628 nm) laser light. A photosensitizer behaved as an added absorber. Under our experimental conditions, the presence of Photolfrin II increased surface temperature by at least 40% and the temperature rise due to 300 mW/cm2 irradiation exceeded values for hyperthermia. Light and temperature distributions with depth were estimated by a computer model. The model demonstrated the influence of wavelength on the thermal process and proved to be a valuable tool to investigate internal temperature rise. 30536 T00401030536 ^x We investigated the structural geometry of thirty-eight Korean femurs. The purpose of this study is to identify major geometrical differences between Korean femurs 3nd others that we believe belong to Caucasians so that we would be able to get insights into the femoral component design that fits Asians including Koreans. We utilized computerized tomography (CT) images of femurs extracted from cadavers. The CT images were transformed into bitmap data by using a film scanner, and then analyzed by using a commercially available software called Image v.1.0 and a Macintosh IIci computer.The resulting data were compared with already published data. The major results show that the geometry of the Korean femurs is significantly different from that of Caucasians: (1) the anteversion angle and the canal flare index are greater by the amount of approximately 8˚ and 0.5, respectively, (2) the shape of the isthmus cross section is more round, and (3) the distance between the teaser trochanter and the proximal border of the isthmus is shelter by about 15 mm. The results suggested that the femoral component suitable for Asians should be different from the currently-used components designed and manufactured mostly by European or American companies. 30537 T00401030537 ^x It is well known that nonlinear propagation characteristics of the wave in the tissue may give very useful information for the medical diagnoisis. In this paper, a new method to detect nonlinear propagation characteristics of the internal vibration in the tissue for the low frequency mechanical vibration by using bispectral analysis is proposed. In the method, low frequency vibration of f0( = 100Hz) is applied on the surface of the object, and the waveform of the internal vibration x (t) is measured from Doppler frequency modulation of silmultaneously transmitted probing ultrasonic waves. Then, the bispectra of the signal x (t) at the frequencies (f0, f0) and (f0, 2f0) are calculated to estimate the nonlinear propagation characteristics as their magnitude ratio, w here since bispectrum is free from the gaussian additive noise we can get the value with high S/N. Basic experimental system is constructed by using 3.0 MHz probing ultrasonic waves and the several experiments are carried out for some phantoms. Results show the superiority of the proposed method to the conventional method using power spectrum and also its usefulness for the tissue characterization. 30541 T00401030541 ^x This paper describes the implementation of a computerized radial pulse diagnosis by aids of a clinical expert. On this base, we composed of the radial pulse diagnosis system in korean traditional medicine. The system composed of a radial pulse wave detection system and a radial pulse diagnosis system. With a detection system, we detected Inyoung and Cheongu radial pulse wave and processed it. Then, we have got the characteristic parameters of radial pulse wave and also quantified that according to the method of Inyoung-Cheongu Comparison Radial Pulse Diagnosis. We defined the jugement standard of radial pulse diagnosis system and then we confirmed the possibility for realization of automatic radial pulse diagnosis in korean traditional medicine. 30545 T00401030545 ^x Microspheres are expected to be applied to biomedical areas such as solid-phase immunoassays, drug delivery systems, immunomagnetic cell separation. To synthesize microspheres for biomedical application, "two stage shot growth method" was developed. The uniformity ratio of synthesized microspheres was always smaller than 1.05. And the surface charge density (or the number of ionizable functional groups) of the microspheres synthesized by "two stage shot growth method" was 6~13 times higher than that of the microspheres synthesized by conventional seeded batch copolymerization. As a previous step for biomedical application, adsorption experiments of bovine albumin on microspheres were carried out under various conditions. The maximum adsorbed amount was obtained in the neighborhood of pH 4.5. Isoelectric point of bovine albumin is pH 5.0, so experimental result shows that it shifted to acid area. The adsorption isotherm was obtained, the plateau region was always reached at 2.Og/L (bulk concentration of bovine albumin).The effect of the kind and the amount of surface functional group was also examined. 30575 T00401030575 ^x A medical image workstation was developed using multimedia technique. The system based on PC-486DX was designed to acquire medical images produced by medical imaging instruments and related audio information, that is, doctors' reporting results. Input information was processed and analyzed, then the results were presented in the form of graph and animation. All the informations of the system were hierarchically related with the image as the apex. Processing and analysis algorithms were implemented so that the diagnostic accuracy could be improved. The diagnosed information can be transferred for patient diagnosis through LAN(local area network). 30592 T00401030592 ^x In the conventional infrared imaging system, complex infrared lens systems are usually used for directing collimated narrow infrared beams into the high speed 2-dimensional optic scanner. In this paper, a simple reflective infrared optic system with a 2-dimensional optic scanner is proposed for the realization of medical infrared thermography system. It has been experimentally proven that the intfrared thermography system composed of the proposed optic system has the temperature resolution of 0.1˚c under the spatial resolution of lmrad, the image matrix size of 256 X 240, and tile imaging time of 4 seconds. 30593 T00401030593 ^x In this paper, MIIS (Medical Image Information System) has been designed and implemented using INGRES RDBMS, which is based on a client/server architecture. The implemented system allows users to register and retrieve patient information, medical images and diagnostic reports. It also provides the function to display these information on workstation windows simultaneously by using the designed menu-driven graphic user interface. The medical image compression/decompression techniques are implemented and integrated into the medical image database system for the efficient data storage and the fast access through the network. 30594 T00401030594 ^x In this paper, computerized BEAM was implemented for the space domain analysis of EEG. Trans-formation from temporal summation to two-dimensional mappings is formed by 4 nearest point inter-polaton method. Methods of representation of BEAM are two. One is dot density method which classify brain electrical potential 9 levels by dot density of gray levels and the other is colour method which classify brain electrical 12 levels by red-green colours. In this BEAM, instantaneous change and average energy distribution over any arbitrary time interval of brain electrical activity could be observed and analyzed easily. In the frequency domain, the distribution of energy spectrum of a special band can easily be distinguished normality and abnormality. 30608 T00401030608 ^x Laboratory information system (LIS) is a key tool to manage laboratory data in clinical pathology. Our department has developed an information system for routine hematology using down-sized computer system. We have used an IBM 486 compatible PC with 16MB main memory, 210 MB hard disk drive, 9 RS-232C port and 24 pin dot printer. The operating system and database management system were SCO UNIX and SCO foxbase, respectively. For program development, we used Xbase language provided by SCO foxbase. The C language was used for interface purpose. To make the system use friendly, pull-down menu was used. The system connected to our hospital information system via application program interface (API), so the information related to patient and request details is automatically transmitted to our computer. Our system interfaced with fwd complete blood count analyzers(Sysmex NE-8000 and Coulter STKS) for unidirectional data tansmission from analyzer to computer. The authors suggests that this system based on down-sized computer could provide a progressive approach to total LIS based on local area network, and the implemented system could serve as a model for other hospital's LIS for routine hematology. 30609 T00401030609 ^x To develop an artificial bone substitute that is gradually degraded and replaced by the regenerated natural bone, the authors designed a composite that is consisted of calcium phosphate and collagen. To use as the structural matrix of the composite, collagen was purified from human umbilical cord. The obtained collagen was treated by pepsin to remove telopeptides, and finally, the immune-free atelocollagen was produced: The cross linked atelocollagen was highly resistant to the collagenase induced collagenolysis. The cross linked collagen demonstrated an improved tensile strength. 30618 T00401030618 ^x This paper is a study on the design of adptive filter for QRS complex detection. We propose a simple adaptive algorithm to increase capability of noise cancelation in QRS complex detection with two stage adaptive filter. At the first stage, background noise is removed and at the next stage, only spectrum of QRS complex components is passed. Two adaptive filters can afford to keep track of the changes of both noise and QRS complex. Each adaptive filter consists of prediction error filter and FIR filter The impulse response of FIR filter uses coefficients of prediction error filter. The detection rates for 105 and 108 of MIT/BIH data base were 99.3% and 97.4% respectively. 30619 T00401030619 ^x To develop an artificial bone substitute that is gradually degraded and replaced by the regenerated natural bone, the authors designed and produced a composite that is consisted of calcium phosphate and collagen. Human umbilical cord origin pepsin treated type I atelocollagen was used as the structural matrix, by which sintered or non-sintered carbonate apatite was encapsulated to form an inorganic-organic composite. With cross linking atelocollagen by UV ray irradiation, the resistance to both compressive and tensile strength was increased. Collagen degradation by the collagenase induced collagenolysis was also decreased. 30620 T00401030620 ^x We have developed a monoleaflet polymer valve as an inexpensive and viable alternative, especially for short-term use in the ventricular assist device or total artificial heart. The frame and leaflet of the polymer valve were made from polyurethane, To evaluate the hemodynamic performance of the polymer valve a comparative study of flow dynamics past a polymer valve and a St. Jude Medical prosthetic valve under physiological pulsatile flow conditions in vitro was made. Comparisons between the valves were made on the transvalvular pressure drop, regurgitation volume and maximum valve opening area. The polymer valve showed smaller regurgitation volume and transvalvular pressure drop compared to the mechanical valve at higher heart rate. The results showed that the functional characteristics of the polymer valve compared favorably with those of the mechanical valve at higher heart rate. 30621 T00401030621 ^x Explosive evaporative removal process of biological tissue by absorption of a CW laser has been simulated by using gelatin and a multimode Nd:YAG laser. Because the point of maximun temperature of laser-irradiated gelatin exists below the surface due to surface cooling, evaporation at the boiling temperature is made explosively from below the surface. The important parameters of this process are the conduction loss to laser power absorption (defined as the conduction-to-laser power parameter, Nk), the convection heat transfer at the surface to conduction loss (defined as Bi), dimensionless extinction coefficient (defined as Br.), and dimensionless irradiation time (defined as Fo). Dependence of Fo on Nk and Bi has been observed by experiment, and the results have been compared with the numerical results obtained by solving a 2-dimensional conduction equation. Fo and explosion depth (from the surface to the point of maximun temperature) are increased when Nk and Bi are increased.To find out the minimum laser power for explosive evaporative removal process, steady state analysis has been also made. The limit of Nk to induce evaporative removal, which is proportional to the inverse of the laser power, has been obtained. 30622 T00401030622 ^x N1 and N2 gross neural action potentials were measured from the round window of the guinea pig cochlea at the onset of the acoustic stimuli. N1-N2 audiograms were made by means of regulating stimulant intensities in order to produce constant N1-N2 potentials as criteria for different input tone pip frequencies. The lowest threshold was measured with an input tone pip I5 dB SPL in intensity and 12 KHz in frequency when the animal was in normal physiological condition. The procedure of experimental measurements is explained in detail. This experimental approach is very useful for the investigation of the Cochlear function. Both noN1inear and active functions of the Cochlea can be monitored by N1-N2 audiograms. 30623 T00401030623 ^x In electrical impedance tomography(EIT), we use boundary current and voltage measurements toprovide the information about the cross-sectional distribution of electrical impedance or resistivity. One of the major problems in EIT has been the inaccessibility of internal voltage or current data in finding the internal impedance values. We propose a new image reconstruction method using internal current density data measured by NMR. We obtained a two-dimensional current density distribution within a phantom by processing the real and imaginary MR images from a 4.77 NMR machine. We implemented a resistivity mage reconstruction algorithm using the finite element method and sensitivity matrix. We presented computer simulation results of the mage reconstruction algorithm and furture direction of the research. 30624 T00401030624 ^x A new method of digital image analysis technique for discrimination of cancer cell was presented in this paper. The object image was the Thyroid eland cells image that was diagnosed as normal and abnormal (two types of abnormal: follicular neoplastic cell, and papillary neoplastic cell), respectively. By using the proposed region segmentation algorithm, the cells were segmented into nucleus. The 16 feature parameters were used to calculate the features of each nucleus. A9 a consequence of using dominant feature parameters method proposed in this paper, discrimination rate of 91.11% was obtained for Thyroid Gland cells. 30625 T00401030625 ^x An electrical stimulator was designed to induce locomotion for paraplegic patients caused by central nervous system injury. Optimal stimulus parameters, which can minimize muscle fatigue and can achieve effective muscle contraction were determined in slow and fast muscles in Sprague-Dawley rats. Stimulus patterns of our stimulator were designed to simulate electromyographic activity monitored during locomotion of normal subjects. Muscle types of the lower extremity were classified according to their mechanical property of contraction, which are slow muscle (msoleus m.) and fast muscle (medial gastrocneminus m., rectus femoris m., vastus lateralis m.). Optimal parameters of electrical stimulation for slow muscles were 20 Hz, 0.2 ms square pulse. For fast muscle, 40 Hz, 0.3 ms square pulse was optimal to produce repeated contraction. Higher stimulus intensity was required when synergistic muscles were stimulated simultaneously than when they were stimulated individually. Electrical stimulation for each muscle was designed to generate bipedal locomotion, so that individual muscles alternate contraction and relaxation to simulate stance and swing phases. Portable electrical stimulator with 16 channels built in microprocessor was constructed and applied to paraplegic patients due to lumbar cord injury. The electrical stimulator restored partially gait function in paraplegic patients. 30626 T00401030626 ^x Two-Dimensional modelling of the Cochlear biomechanics is presented in this paper. The Laplace partial differential equation which represents the fluid mechanics of the Cochlea has been transformed into two-dimensional electrical transmission line. The procedure of this transformation is explained in detail. The comparison between one and two dimensional models is also presented. This electrical modelling of the basilar membrane (BM) is clearly useful for the next approach to the further. Development of active elements which are essential in the producing of the sharp tuning of the BM. This paper shows that two-dimension model is qualitatively better than one-dimensional model both in amplitude and phase responses of the BM displacement. The present model is only for frequency response. However because the model is electrical, the two-dimensional transmission line model can be extended to time response without any difficult. 30627 T00401030627 ^x A method has been proposed for the fully automatic detection of left ventricular endocardial boundary in 2D short axis echocardiogram using geometric model. The procedure has the following three distinct stages. First, the initial center is estimated by the initial center estimation algorithm which is applied to decimated image. Second, the center estimation algorithm is applied to original image and then best-fit elliptic model estimation is processed. Third, best-fit boundary is detected by the cost function which is based on the best-fit elliptic model. The proposed method shows effective result without manual intervention by a human operator. 30628 T00401030628 ^x The intelligent trajectory control method that controls moving direction and average velocity for a prosthetic arm is proposed by pattern recognition and force estimations using EMG signals. Also, we propose the real time trajectory planning method which generates continuous accelleration paths using 3 stage linear filters to minimize the impact to human body induced by arm motions and to reduce the muscle fatigue. We use combination of MLP and fuzzy filter for pattern recognition to estimate the direction of a muscle and Hogan's method for the force estimation. EMG signals are acquired by using a amputation simulator and 2 dimensional joystick motion. The simulation results of proposed prosthetic arm control system using the EMf signals show that the arm is effectively followed the desired trajectory depended on estimated force and direction of muscle movements. 30638 T00401030638 ^x A new neural network architecture for the recognition of patterns from images is proposed, which is partially based on the results of physiological studies. The proposed network is composed of multi-layers and the nerve cells in each layer are connected by spatial filters which approximate receptive fields in optic nerve fields. In the proposed method, patterns recognition for complicated images is carried out using global features as well as local features such as lines and end-points. A new generating method of matched filers representing global features is proposed in this network. 30659 T00401030659 ^x An implementation scheme of the magnetic nerve stimulator using a switching mode power supply is proposed. By using a switching mode power supply rather than a conventional linear power supply for charging high voltage capacitors, the weight and size of the magnetic nerve stimulator can be considerably reduced. Maximum output voltage of the developed magnetic nerve stimulator using the switching mode power supply is 3, 000 volts and switching time is about 100 msec. Experimental results or human nerve stimulations using the developed stimulator are presented. 30768 T00401030768 ^x In this paper, we describe the design methodology and specifications of the developed module-based bedside monitors for patient monitoring. The bedside monitor consists of a main unit and module cases with various parameter modules. The main unit includes a 12.1" TFT color LCD, a main CPU board, and peripherals such as a module controller, Ethernet LAN card, video card, rotate/push button controller, etc. The main unit can connect at maximum three module cases each of which can accommodate up to 7 parameter modules. They include the modules for electrocardiograph, respiration, invasive blood pressure, noninvasive blood pressure, temperature, and SpO2 with Plethysmograph.SpO2 with Plethysmograph.

국가신성장동력으로MICE(Meeting, Incentive travel, Convention, Exhibition) 산업이각광받으면서국내전시산업에 대한 관심이 드높아 지고 있다. 이에 따라 국내 전시산업(domestic exhibition industry)도 미국이나 유럽과 같이 전시성과를 향상시키기 위한 다양한 연구가 진행 중이다. 그 중에서도 전시환경이나 전시기법 등에 따라 관람효과가 다르기 때문에 지능형 정보기술을 이용하여 전시장에 방문한 참관객의 참관패턴을 분석하여 참관객을 이해하고 더 나아가 참여업체 간의 연관관계 도출 및 전시회의 성과를 높이고자 하는 연구들이 진행되고 있다. 그런데, 이러한 기존의 부스추천시스템과 관련된 연구를 살펴보면 시스템적인 관점에서 추천의 정확성만을 논하고 있을 뿐 추천을 통한 참관객의 행동이나 인식의 변화에 대해서는 충분히 논의하고 있지 못하다. 부스추천시스템(Booth Recommendation System)은 참관객의 부스방문 정보를 바탕으로 참관객에게 적절한 부스를 추천하기 때문에 참관객은 사전에 계획하지 않은 전시장을 방문하게 될 수 있다. 이 때 참관객은 계획하지 않은 방문행동을 통해서 만족할 수도 있지만 추천과 정이 번거롭다거나 자유롭게 참관을 하는데 방해가 된다고 생각할 수 있다. 이 경우 참관객의 자유로운 관람보다 오히려 더 좋지 않은 성과를 낼 수 있다. 따라서 부스 추천시스템을 전시장에 적용하기 위해서는 시스템의 성과에 미치는 영향요인이 무엇인지 전반적으로 검토하고, 부스추천시스템이 참관객의 계획되지 않은 방문행동에 미치는 영향에 대해 면밀히 검토해야 한다. 이에 본 연구에서는 부스추천시스템의 성과에 영향을 미치는 요인이 무엇인지 이론과 기존문헌을 통해 살펴보고자 하였다. 또한, 참관객의 지각된 부스추천시스템의 성과가 참관객의 계획되지 않은 행동에 대한 만족도와 부스추천시스템의 재사용의도에 어떤 영향을 미치는지 살펴보고자 하였다. 이러한 연구목적을 달성하기 위한 이론적 프레임워크로 본 연구는 계획되지 않은 행동이론(Unplanned Behavior Theory)을 도입하였다. 계획되지 않은 행동(unplanned behavior)이란 "소비자들이 사전에 계획하지 되지 않은 채 실행된 어떤 행동"으로 정의할 수 있다. 소비자들의 계획되지 않은 행동은 그 동안 마케팅 등 다양한 분야에서 연구되어 왔다. 특히, 마케팅에서는 계획되지 않은 행동 중 계획되지 않은 구매(unplanned purchasing)에 많은 관심을 두어 왔는데 이 개념은 종종 충동적 구매(impulsive purchasing)와 혼동되어 사용되곤 하였다. 그런데, 충동적 구매가 갑자기 무엇인가 구매를 해야하는 강하고 지속적인 충동(urge)이라고 본다면 계획되지 않은 구매는 구매의사결정의 시점이 상점에 들어가기 전이 아닌 상점 내에서 수행된다는 점이 다르다. 즉, 모든 충동적 구매는 비계획적이나, 모든 계획되지 않은 구매가 충동적인 구매는 아니다. 그런데, 왜 소비자들은 계획되지 않은 행동을 하는가? 이에 대해서는 학자들에 따라 여러 가지 의견이 있으나 소비자가 사전에 철저한 계획을 수립하지 않고 따라서 중간에 계획을 변화시킬만한 유연성(flexibility)이 있기 때문이라는 점에 일관된 의견을 보인다. 즉, 계획되지 않은 행동을 하는데 많은 비용이 소요된다면 소비자들은 사전에 수립한 계획을 변경하기 어렵게 될 것이기 때문이다. 본 연구에서 살펴보고자 하는 전시장 역시 참관객들은 방문하기 전에 전시장이 어떤 프로그램으로 구성되어 있는지 살펴보고, 어떤 부스를 방문할지를 사전에 계획하게 된다. 그 이유는 참관객들이 전시장 방문에 투입할 수 있는 시간은 한정되어 있는 반면에 전시회는 대규모의 다양한 부스로 운영되기 때문에 참관객들이 모든 부스를 참관한다는 것이 현실적으로 불가능하기 때문이다. 따라서 본 연구에서 제시하는 부스추천시스템이 참관객이 선호할 만한 부스를 추천하게 되면 참관객은 자신의 계획을 변화시켜서 부스추천시스템이 추천한 부스를 방문하게 된다. 이러한 방문행동은 소비자가 상점을 방문하거나, 관광객이 관광지에서 계획하지 않은 행동을 하는 것과 유사한 측면에서 이해가 가능하며 특히 최근 여행소비자들이 정보기기의 영향으로 계획되지 않은 행동을 하는 경우가 부쩍 증가한 추세와 동일한 맥락에서 이해가 가능하다. 이에 다음과 같은 연구모형을 설정하였다. 이 연구모형은 참관객이 지각한 부스추천시스템의 성과(performance)를 매개변수로 하고 있는데 이 성과에 영향을 미치는 요인으로 부스추천시스템에 대한 신뢰(trust), 전시장 참관객의 지식수준 (knowledge level), 부스 추천시스템의 기대된 개인화 (expected personalization) 그리고 부스추천시스템의 자유위협(threat to freedom)을 영향요인으로 파악하였다. 또한, 지각된 부스추천시스템 성과와 계획되지 않은 행동에 대한 참관객의 만족도와 향후 부스추천시스템의 재사용의도간의 인과관계도 파악하고자 하였다. 이 때 부스추천시스템에대한신뢰는권한(competence), 자선(benevolence), 그리고진실(integrity)의2차요인(2nd order factor)으로구성하고, 나머지 요인들은 1차 요인으로 구성하였다. 이를 검증하기 위해 2011 DMC Culture Open 행사에서 부스추천시스템을 테스트하기 위하여 시스템을 개발하고, 101명의 참관객을 대상으로 실증조사를 하여 분석하였다. 분석결과 첫째, 부스추천시스템에 있어서 참관객의 신뢰가 가장 중요한 요소이며 실제 해당 부스추천시스템을 이용한 참관객들은 신뢰를 통해 부스추천시스템이 성과 있다고 인식하였다. 둘째, 참관객의 지식수준 역시 부스추천시스템의 성과에 유의한 영향을 미쳤는데 이는 추천의 성과가 전시장에 대한 사전적 이해가 필요함을 의미한다. 즉, 전시장에 대한 이해가 높은 참관객이 부스추천시스템의 유용성을 더 잘 파악하는 것으로 나타났다. 셋째, 기대된 개인화 수준은 성과에 유의한 영향을 미치지 못했는데 이는 기존 연구와 다른 결과로 본 연구에 사용된 부스추천시스템이 충분히 개인화 서비스를 제공하지 못했기 때문이라고 판단된다. 넷째, 부스추천시스템의 추천정보는 개인의 자유를 위협하거나 제한한다고 느끼지 않음으로 충분히 유용한 가치를 갖는다고 할 수 있다. 끝으로 부스정보시스템의 높은 성과는 참관객들의 계획되지 않은 행동에 대한 높은 만족도와 향후에도 부스추천시스템을 재사용할 의도를 만드는 것으로 나타났다. 이와 같이 본 연구는 부스추천시스템이 야기하는 참관객의 계획되지 않은 부스방문행동에 미치는 영향력을 분석하기 위해 계획되지 않은 행동이론을 중심으로 실증자료를 이용하여 분석하고, 이를 통해 향후 부스추천시스템의 구축 및 설계에 유용한 시사점을 도출할 수 있었다. 향후에는 보다 정교한 설문구성과 측정대상을 이용하여 추가적인 검토가 필요할 것으로 기대된다.

The wall shear stress in the vicinity of end-to end anastomoses under steady flow conditions was measured using a flush-mounted hot-film anemometer(FMHFA) probe. The experimental measurements were in good agreement with numerical results except in flow with low Reynolds numbers. The wall shear stress increased proximal to the anastomosis in flow from the Penrose tubing (simulating an artery) to the PTFE: graft. In flow from the PTFE graft to the Penrose tubing, low wall shear stress was observed distal to the anastomosis. Abnormal distributions of wall shear stress in the vicinity of the anastomosis, resulting from the compliance mismatch between the graft and the host artery, might be an important factor of ANFH formation and the graft failure. The present study suggests a correlation between regions of the low wall shear stress and the development of anastomotic neointimal fibrous hyperplasia(ANPH) in end-to-end anastomoses. 30523 T00401030523 ^x Air pressure decay(APD) rate and ultrafiltration rate(UFR) tests were performed on new and saline rinsed dialyzers as well as those roused in patients several times. C-DAK 4000 (Cordis Dow) and CF IS-11 (Baxter Travenol) reused dialyzers obtained from the dialysis clinic were used in the present study. The new dialyzers exhibited a relatively flat APD, whereas saline rinsed and reused dialyzers showed considerable amount of decay. C-DAH dialyzers had a larger APD(11.70${\pm}$1.32mmHg/min)compared to CF dialyzers(4.32${\pm}$0.55mmHg/min)(p<0.05). However, there was no observable difference in the UFR between the two dialyzers. Neither APD nor UFR showed any significant increase with an increasing number of reuses for up to more than 20reuses. A substantial number of failures observed in APD(larger than 20mmHe/min)on the reused dialyzers(2 out of 40 CP and S out 26 C-DAK) were attributed to the Possible damage on the fibers. The CF 15-11 HFDs which failed APD test did not show changes in the UFR compared to normal dialyzers indicating that APD is a more sensitive test than UFR test to evaluate the integrity of the fibers. 30527 T00401030527 ^x For quantitative measurement of reflected light from a clinical diagnostic strip, a prototype old reflectance photometer was designed. The strip loader and cassette were made to obtain more accurate reflectance parameters. The strip was illuminated at 45˚c through optical fiber and the intensity of reflected light was determined at rectanguLat angle using a photodiode. The kubelka-munk coefficient and reflection optical density were determined ar four different wavelengths(500,550,570 and 610nm) for blood glucose strip. For higher concentration than 300mg/41 about glucose, a saturation state of abforbance was observed at 500,550 and 570nm. The correlation between glucose concentration and parameters was the best at 610nm. 30535 T00401030535 ^x Radiation-induced fibrosarcoma tumors were grown on the flanks of C3H mice. The mice were divided into two groups. One group was injected with Photofrin II, intravenously (2.5mg/kg body weight). The other group received no Photofrin II. Mice from both groups were irradialed for approximately 15 minutes at 100,300, or 500 mW/cm2 with the argon (488nm/514.5 nm), dye(628nm) and gold vapor (pulsed 628 nm) laser light. A photosensitizer behaved as an added absorber. Under our experimental conditions, the presence of Photolfrin II increased surface temperature by at least 40% and the temperature rise due to 300 mW/cm2 irradiation exceeded values for hyperthermia. Light and temperature distributions with depth were estimated by a computer model. The model demonstrated the influence of wavelength on the thermal process and proved to be a valuable tool to investigate internal temperature rise. 30536 T00401030536 ^x We investigated the structural geometry of thirty-eight Korean femurs. The purpose of this study is to identify major geometrical differences between Korean femurs 3nd others that we believe belong to Caucasians so that we would be able to get insights into the femoral component design that fits Asians including Koreans. We utilized computerized tomography (CT) images of femurs extracted from cadavers. The CT images were transformed into bitmap data by using a film scanner, and then analyzed by using a commercially available software called Image v.1.0 and a Macintosh IIci computer.The resulting data were compared with already published data. The major results show that the geometry of the Korean femurs is significantly different from that of Caucasians: (1) the anteversion angle and the canal flare index are greater by the amount of approximately 8˚ and 0.5, respectively, (2) the shape of the isthmus cross section is more round, and (3) the distance between the teaser trochanter and the proximal border of the isthmus is shelter by about 15 mm. The results suggested that the femoral component suitable for Asians should be different from the currently-used components designed and manufactured mostly by European or American companies. 30537 T00401030537 ^x It is well known that nonlinear propagation characteristics of the wave in the tissue may give very useful information for the medical diagnoisis. In this paper, a new method to detect nonlinear propagation characteristics of the internal vibration in the tissue for the low frequency mechanical vibration by using bispectral analysis is proposed. In the method, low frequency vibration of f0( = 100Hz) is applied on the surface of the object, and the waveform of the internal vibration x (t) is measured from Doppler frequency modulation of silmultaneously transmitted probing ultrasonic waves. Then, the bispectra of the signal x (t) at the frequencies (f0, f0) and (f0, 2f0) are calculated to estimate the nonlinear propagation characteristics as their magnitude ratio, w here since bispectrum is free from the gaussian additive noise we can get the value with high S/N. Basic experimental system is constructed by using 3.0 MHz probing ultrasonic waves and the several experiments are carried out for some phantoms. Results show the superiority of the proposed method to the conventional method using power spectrum and also its usefulness for the tissue characterization. 30541 T00401030541 ^x This paper describes the implementation of a computerized radial pulse diagnosis by aids of a clinical expert. On this base, we composed of the radial pulse diagnosis system in korean traditional medicine. The system composed of a radial pulse wave detection system and a radial pulse diagnosis system. With a detection system, we detected Inyoung and Cheongu radial pulse wave and processed it. Then, we have got the characteristic parameters of radial pulse wave and also quantified that according to the method of Inyoung-Cheongu Comparison Radial Pulse Diagnosis. We defined the jugement standard of radial pulse diagnosis system and then we confirmed the possibility for realization of automatic radial pulse diagnosis in korean traditional medicine. 30545 T00401030545 ^x Microspheres are expected to be applied to biomedical areas such as solid-phase immunoassays, drug delivery systems, immunomagnetic cell separation. To synthesize microspheres for biomedical application, "two stage shot growth method" was developed. The uniformity ratio of synthesized microspheres was always smaller than 1.05. And the surface charge density (or the number of ionizable functional groups) of the microspheres synthesized by "two stage shot growth method" was 6~13 times higher than that of the microspheres synthesized by conventional seeded batch copolymerization. As a previous step for biomedical application, adsorption experiments of bovine albumin on microspheres were carried out under various conditions. The maximum adsorbed amount was obtained in the neighborhood of pH 4.5. Isoelectric point of bovine albumin is pH 5.0, so experimental result shows that it shifted to acid area. The adsorption isotherm was obtained, the plateau region was always reached at 2.Og/L (bulk concentration of bovine albumin).The effect of the kind and the amount of surface functional group was also examined. 30575 T00401030575 ^x A medical image workstation was developed using multimedia technique. The system based on PC-486DX was designed to acquire medical images produced by medical imaging instruments and related audio information, that is, doctors' reporting results. Input information was processed and analyzed, then the results were presented in the form of graph and animation. All the informations of the system were hierarchically related with the image as the apex. Processing and analysis algorithms were implemented so that the diagnostic accuracy could be improved. The diagnosed information can be transferred for patient diagnosis through LAN(local area network). 30592 T00401030592 ^x In the conventional infrared imaging system, complex infrared lens systems are usually used for directing collimated narrow infrared beams into the high speed 2-dimensional optic scanner. In this paper, a simple reflective infrared optic system with a 2-dimensional optic scanner is proposed for the realization of medical infrared thermography system. It has been experimentally proven that the intfrared thermography system composed of the proposed optic system has the temperature resolution of 0.1˚c under the spatial resolution of lmrad, the image matrix size of 256 X 240, and tile imaging time of 4 seconds. 30593 T00401030593 ^x In this paper, MIIS (Medical Image Information System) has been designed and implemented using INGRES RDBMS, which is based on a client/server architecture. The implemented system allows users to register and retrieve patient information, medical images and diagnostic reports. It also provides the function to display these information on workstation windows simultaneously by using the designed menu-driven graphic user interface. The medical image compression/decompression techniques are implemented and integrated into the medical image database system for the efficient data storage and the fast access through the network. 30594 T00401030594 ^x In this paper, computerized BEAM was implemented for the space domain analysis of EEG. Trans-formation from temporal summation to two-dimensional mappings is formed by 4 nearest point inter-polaton method. Methods of representation of BEAM are two. One is dot density method which classify brain electrical potential 9 levels by dot density of gray levels and the other is colour method which classify brain electrical 12 levels by red-green colours. In this BEAM, instantaneous change and average energy distribution over any arbitrary time interval of brain electrical activity could be observed and analyzed easily. In the frequency domain, the distribution of energy spectrum of a special band can easily be distinguished normality and abnormality. 30608 T00401030608 ^x Laboratory information system (LIS) is a key tool to manage laboratory data in clinical pathology. Our department has developed an information system for routine hematology using down-sized computer system. We have used an IBM 486 compatible PC with 16MB main memory, 210 MB hard disk drive, 9 RS-232C port and 24 pin dot printer. The operating system and database management system were SCO UNIX and SCO foxbase, respectively. For program development, we used Xbase language provided by SCO foxbase. The C language was used for interface purpose. To make the system use friendly, pull-down menu was used. The system connected to our hospital information system via application program interface (API), so the information related to patient and request details is automatically transmitted to our computer. Our system interfaced with fwd complete blood count analyzers(Sysmex NE-8000 and Coulter STKS) for unidirectional data tansmission from analyzer to computer. The authors suggests that this system based on down-sized computer could provide a progressive approach to total LIS based on local area network, and the implemented system could serve as a model for other hospital's LIS for routine hematology. 30609 T00401030609 ^x To develop an artificial bone substitute that is gradually degraded and replaced by the regenerated natural bone, the authors designed a composite that is consisted of calcium phosphate and collagen. To use as the structural matrix of the composite, collagen was purified from human umbilical cord. The obtained collagen was treated by pepsin to remove telopeptides, and finally, the immune-free atelocollagen was produced: The cross linked atelocollagen was highly resistant to the collagenase induced collagenolysis. The cross linked collagen demonstrated an improved tensile strength. 30618 T00401030618 ^x This paper is a study on the design of adptive filter for QRS complex detection. We propose a simple adaptive algorithm to increase capability of noise cancelation in QRS complex detection with two stage adaptive filter. At the first stage, background noise is removed and at the next stage, only spectrum of QRS complex components is passed. Two adaptive filters can afford to keep track of the changes of both noise and QRS complex. Each adaptive filter consists of prediction error filter and FIR filter The impulse response of FIR filter uses coefficients of prediction error filter. The detection rates for 105 and 108 of MIT/BIH data base were 99.3% and 97.4% respectively. 30619 T00401030619 ^x To develop an artificial bone substitute that is gradually degraded and replaced by the regenerated natural bone, the authors designed and produced a composite that is consisted of calcium phosphate and collagen. Human umbilical cord origin pepsin treated type I atelocollagen was used as the structural matrix, by which sintered or non-sintered carbonate apatite was encapsulated to form an inorganic-organic composite. With cross linking atelocollagen by UV ray irradiation, the resistance to both compressive and tensile strength was increased. Collagen degradation by the collagenase induced collagenolysis was also decreased. 30620 T00401030620 ^x We have developed a monoleaflet polymer valve as an inexpensive and viable alternative, especially for short-term use in the ventricular assist device or total artificial heart. The frame and leaflet of the polymer valve were made from polyurethane, To evaluate the hemodynamic performance of the polymer valve a comparative study of flow dynamics past a polymer valve and a St. Jude Medical prosthetic valve under physiological pulsatile flow conditions in vitro was made. Comparisons between the valves were made on the transvalvular pressure drop, regurgitation volume and maximum valve opening area. The polymer valve showed smaller regurgitation volume and transvalvular pressure drop compared to the mechanical valve at higher heart rate. The results showed that the functional characteristics of the polymer valve compared favorably with those of the mechanical valve at higher heart rate. 30621 T00401030621 ^x Explosive evaporative removal process of biological tissue by absorption of a CW laser has been simulated by using gelatin and a multimode Nd:YAG laser. Because the point of maximun temperature of laser-irradiated gelatin exists below the surface due to surface cooling, evaporation at the boiling temperature is made explosively from below the surface. The important parameters of this process are the conduction loss to laser power absorption (defined as the conduction-to-laser power parameter, Nk), the convection heat transfer at the surface to conduction loss (defined as Bi), dimensionless extinction coefficient (defined as Br.), and dimensionless irradiation time (defined as Fo). Dependence of Fo on Nk and Bi has been observed by experiment, and the results have been compared with the numerical results obtained by solving a 2-dimensional conduction equation. Fo and explosion depth (from the surface to the point of maximun temperature) are increased when Nk and Bi are increased.To find out the minimum laser power for explosive evaporative removal process, steady state analysis has been also made. The limit of Nk to induce evaporative removal, which is proportional to the inverse of the laser power, has been obtained. 30622 T00401030622 ^x N1 and N2 gross neural action potentials were measured from the round window of the guinea pig cochlea at the onset of the acoustic stimuli. N1-N2 audiograms were made by means of regulating stimulant intensities in order to produce constant N1-N2 potentials as criteria for different input tone pip frequencies. The lowest threshold was measured with an input tone pip I5 dB SPL in intensity and 12 KHz in frequency when the animal was in normal physiological condition. The procedure of experimental measurements is explained in detail. This experimental approach is very useful for the investigation of the Cochlear function. Both noN1inear and active functions of the Cochlea can be monitored by N1-N2 audiograms. 30623 T00401030623 ^x In electrical impedance tomography(EIT), we use boundary current and voltage measurements toprovide the information about the cross-sectional distribution of electrical impedance or resistivity. One of the major problems in EIT has been the inaccessibility of internal voltage or current data in finding the internal impedance values. We propose a new image reconstruction method using internal current density data measured by NMR. We obtained a two-dimensional current density distribution within a phantom by processing the real and imaginary MR images from a 4.77 NMR machine. We implemented a resistivity mage reconstruction algorithm using the finite element method and sensitivity matrix. We presented computer simulation results of the mage reconstruction algorithm and furture direction of the research. 30624 T00401030624 ^x A new method of digital image analysis technique for discrimination of cancer cell was presented in this paper. The object image was the Thyroid eland cells image that was diagnosed as normal and abnormal (two types of abnormal: follicular neoplastic cell, and papillary neoplastic cell), respectively. By using the proposed region segmentation algorithm, the cells were segmented into nucleus. The 16 feature parameters were used to calculate the features of each nucleus. A9 a consequence of using dominant feature parameters method proposed in this paper, discrimination rate of 91.11% was obtained for Thyroid Gland cells. 30625 T00401030625 ^x An electrical stimulator was designed to induce locomotion for paraplegic patients caused by central nervous system injury. Optimal stimulus parameters, which can minimize muscle fatigue and can achieve effective muscle contraction were determined in slow and fast muscles in Sprague-Dawley rats. Stimulus patterns of our stimulator were designed to simulate electromyographic activity monitored during locomotion of normal subjects. Muscle types of the lower extremity were classified according to their mechanical property of contraction, which are slow muscle (msoleus m.) and fast muscle (medial gastrocneminus m., rectus femoris m., vastus lateralis m.). Optimal parameters of electrical stimulation for slow muscles were 20 Hz, 0.2 ms square pulse. For fast muscle, 40 Hz, 0.3 ms square pulse was optimal to produce repeated contraction. Higher stimulus intensity was required when synergistic muscles were stimulated simultaneously than when they were stimulated individually. Electrical stimulation for each muscle was designed to generate bipedal locomotion, so that individual muscles alternate contraction and relaxation to simulate stance and swing phases. Portable electrical stimulator with 16 channels built in microprocessor was constructed and applied to paraplegic patients due to lumbar cord injury. The electrical stimulator restored partially gait function in paraplegic patients. 30626 T00401030626 ^x Two-Dimensional modelling of the Cochlear biomechanics is presented in this paper. The Laplace partial differential equation which represents the fluid mechanics of the Cochlea has been transformed into two-dimensional electrical transmission line. The procedure of this transformation is explained in detail. The comparison between one and two dimensional models is also presented. This electrical modelling of the basilar membrane (BM) is clearly useful for the next approach to the further. Development of active elements which are essential in the producing of the sharp tuning of the BM. This paper shows that two-dimension model is qualitatively better than one-dimensional model both in amplitude and phase responses of the BM displacement. The present model is only for frequency response. However because the model is electrical, the two-dimensional transmission line model can be extended to time response without any difficult. 30627 T00401030627 ^x A method has been proposed for the fully automatic detection of left ventricular endocardial boundary in 2D short axis echocardiogram using geometric model. The procedure has the following three distinct stages. First, the initial center is estimated by the initial center estimation algorithm which is applied to decimated image. Second, the center estimation algorithm is applied to original image and then best-fit elliptic model estimation is processed. Third, best-fit boundary is detected by the cost function which is based on the best-fit elliptic model. The proposed method shows effective result without manual intervention by a human operator. 30628 T00401030628 ^x The intelligent trajectory control method that controls moving direction and average velocity for a prosthetic arm is proposed by pattern recognition and force estimations using EMG signals. Also, we propose the real time trajectory planning method which generates continuous accelleration paths using 3 stage linear filters to minimize the impact to human body induced by arm motions and to reduce the muscle fatigue. We use combination of MLP and fuzzy filter for pattern recognition to estimate the direction of a muscle and Hogan's method for the force estimation. EMG signals are acquired by using a amputation simulator and 2 dimensional joystick motion. The simulation results of proposed prosthetic arm control system using the EMf signals show that the arm is effectively followed the desired trajectory depended on estimated force and direction of muscle movements. 30638 T00401030638 ^x A new neural network architecture for the recognition of patterns from images is proposed, which is partially based on the results of physiological studies. The proposed network is composed of multi-layers and the nerve cells in each layer are connected by spatial filters which approximate receptive fields in optic nerve fields. In the proposed method, patterns recognition for complicated images is carried out using global features as well as local features such as lines and end-points. A new generating method of matched filers representing global features is proposed in this network. 30659 T00401030659 ^x An implementation scheme of the magnetic nerve stimulator using a switching mode power supply is proposed. By using a switching mode power supply rather than a conventional linear power supply for charging high voltage capacitors, the weight and size of the magnetic nerve stimulator can be considerably reduced. Maximum output voltage of the developed magnetic nerve stimulator using the switching mode power supply is 3,000 volts and switching time is about 100 msec. Experimental results or human nerve stimulations using the developed stimulator are presented. 30768 T00401030768 ^x In this paper, we describe the design methodology and specifications of the developed module-based bedside monitors for patient monitoring. The bedside monitor consists of a main unit and module cases with various parameter modules. The main unit includes a 12.1" TFT color LCD, a main CPU board, and peripherals such as a module controller, Ethernet LAN card, video card, rotate/push button controller, etc. The main unit can connect at maximum three module cases each of which can accommodate up to 7 parameter modules. They include the modules for electrocardiograph, respiration, invasive blood pressure, noninvasive blood pressure, temperature, and SpO2 with Plethysmograph.

인터넷의 발달을 통해 지속적으로 인스턴트 커뮤니케이션이 발달해왔다. 인스턴트 커뮤니케이션에서 가장 대표적인 것이 메신저 애플리케이션이다. 메신저 애플리케이션에서 이모티콘은 송신자의 감정 전달을 보완하기 위해 활용됐다. 메신저 애플리케이션 송신자의 감정 전달에 약한 모습을 보이는데 그 이유는 면대면 커뮤니케이션이 아니기 때문이다. 이모티콘은 과거 화자의 기분 상태를 나타내는 기호로만 사용됐다. 그러나 현재는 이모티콘은 감정 전달 뿐만 아니라 개인의 특성과 개성을 나타내고 싶어 하는 소비자의 심리를 반영하는 형태로 발전해가고 있다. 이모티콘의 사용 환경이 개선되었고, 이모티콘 자체가 발전함으로써 이모티콘 자체에 대한 관심도는 증가하였다. 대표적인 예로 카카오톡, 라인, 애플 등에서 서비스를 진행하고 있으며, 관련 컨텐츠 상품의 매출도 지속적으로 증가할 것으로 전망하고 있다. 이모티콘 자체의 관심도 증가와 관련 사업의 성장세에도 불구하고 현재 적절한 이모티콘 추천 시스템이 부재하다. 국내 점유율 90% 이상의 메신저 애플리케이션인 카카오톡조차 단순히 인기 순이나 최근 순, 혹은 간략한 카테고리 별로 분류한 정도이다. 소비자들은 원하는 이모티콘을 찾기 위해서 스크롤을 계속해서 내려야 하는 불편함이 있으며, 본인이 원하는 감성의 이모티콘을 찾기 어렵다. 소비자들이 편의성 향상과 기업의 이모티콘 관련 사업의 판매 매출 증가를 위해 소비자가 원하는 이모티콘을 추천해줄 수 있는 이모티콘 추천 시스템이 필요하다. 적절한 이모티콘을 추천하기 위해서 소비자가 이모티콘을 보고 느낀 감성에 대해 정량화할 필요성이 있다. 정량화를 통해 소비자가 원하는 이모티콘 셋이 가진 특징과 감성에 대해 분석할 수 있으며, 분석 결과를 토대로 소비자에게 이모티콘을 추천할 수 있다. 이모티콘은 메타데이터화의 방법으로 정량화가 가능하다. 메타데이터화 방법은 빅데이터 시대에 비정형, 반정형 데이터에 대해서 의미를 추출하기 위해 데이터를 구조화 혹은 조직화하는 작업이다. 비정형 데이터인 이모티콘을 메타데이터화를 통해 구조화한다면, 쉽게 소비자가 원하는 감성 형태로 분류할 수 있을 것으로 생각한다. 정확한 감성을 추출하기 위해 감정과 관련된 선행 연구를 통해 7개의 공통 감성 형용사와 한국어에서만 나타나는 은유 혹은 표현적 특징들을 반영하기 위해 하위 세부 표현들까지 고려했다. 이모티콘의 가장 큰 특징인 캐릭터를 기반으로 "표상", "형상", "색상"의 범주에서 세부 하위 감성들을 수집했다. 정확도 높은 추천 시스템을 설계하기 위해 감성 지표만이 아니라 객관적 지표도 고려하였다. 메타데이터화 방법을 통해 이모티콘이 갖고 있는 캐릭터의 특징을 객관적 지표로 14개, 감성 지표로 활용하기 위해 감성 형용사를 36개를 추출하였다. 추출된 감성 형용사는 대비되는 형용사로 구성하여 총 18개로 줄였으며, 18개의 감성 형용사는 카카오톡의 이모티콘을 인기 순으로 임의의 40개 셋을 대상으로 측정하였다. 측정을 위해 이모티콘을 평가할 조사 대상자 온라인으로 모집하였고, 277명의 20~30대의 이모티콘을 구매한 경험이 있는 소비자를 대상으로 설문을 진행하였다. 설문응답자에게 서로 다른 5개의 이모티콘 셋을 평가하도록 하였다. 평가 결과 수집된 18개의 감정 형용사는 요인분석을 통해 감성 지표 요인으로 추출하였다. 추출된 소비자 감성 지표의 요인은 "코믹", "부드러움", "모던함", "투명함"이었다. 이모티콘의 객관적 지표와 감성 지표 요인을 활용하여 소비자 만족과의 관계를 분석하였고, 객관적 지표와 감성 지표 간의 관계도 분석하였다. 이 과정에서 객관적 지표가 소비자 태도에 바로 영향을 주는 것이 아니라 감성 지표 요인을 통해 소비자 태도에 영향을 주는 매개 효과가 있음을 확인하였다. 분석 결과는 소비자의 감성 평가 메커니즘을 밝혀냈고, 소비자의 이모티콘 감성 평가 메커니즘은 객관적 지표가 감성 지표 요인에 영향을 미치며, 감성 지표 요인은 소비자 만족에 영향을 미치는 관계였다. 따라서 감성 지표 요인의 네 가지만으로 이모티콘 추천 시스템을 설계하였고, 추천 방법은 각 감성과의 거리를 유클리디안 거리로 측정하여 거리의 차가 0에 가까울수록 비슷한 감성으로 정의하였다. 본 연구에서 제안한 이모티콘 시스템의 검증을 위해 각 감성 지표 요인과 소비자 만족의 평균을 지표 값으로 활용하여 각 이모티콘 셋의 감성 패턴을 그래프로 비교하였고, 추천된 이모티콘들과 선택된 이모티콘이 대체로 비슷한 패턴을 그리는 것을 확인하였다. 정확한 검증을 위해 사전 조사하였던 소비자를 대상으로 이모티콘 추천 시스템이 제시한 결과와 유사하게 평가하였는지 유사 순위를 세 구간으로 나누어 비교하였고, 순위별 예측 정확도는 결과 1순위 81.02%, 2순위 76.64%, 3순위 81.63%였다. 본 연구의 결과는 학문적, 실무적으로 다양한 분야에서 활용 가능한 방법론을 제시하였으며, 기존에 없던 이모티콘 추천 시스템의 설계를 통해 소비자에게는 편의와 이모티콘을 서비스하는 기업에는 매출증대의 효과를 가져올 것으로 예상한다. 그리고 본 연구를 통해 지능형 이모티콘 시스템으로 발전할 수 있는 단초를 제공했다는 점에서 의미가 있다. 본 연구에서 제안한 감성 요인들을 활용하여 감성 라이브러리로 사용함으로써, 새로운 이모티콘 출시 시 감성 평가의 지표로 활용할 수 있다. 축적된 감성 라이브러리와 기업의 판매 데이터, 매출 정보, 소비자 데이터를 결합하여 본 연구에서 제안한 추천 시스템을 복합형 추천 시스템으로 발전시켜 단순 소비자의 편의성이나 매출 증가뿐만 아니라 기업에서 전략적으로 활용 가능한 지적 자산으로 활용할 수 있을 것으로 판단한다.
