히스토그램은 여러 가지 응용적인 측면에서 매우 유용한 방법이며, 단순한 계산법과 편리성이 강조되면서, 오늘날 디지털 이미지 프로세싱에서는 기본적인 방법이 되었다. 하지만 히스토그램을 사용하는 방법의 근본적인 한계점은 영상에서 픽셀의 공간적인 위치 정보를 없애 버린다는 것이다. 본 논문은 공간적인 위치정보를 포함한 히스토그램(공간 히스토그램)을 제시하여 영상을 재해석한다. 또한 그 결과를 이용하여 레벨 순서별 Recursive 메디안 필터를 구현 하였다. 제안한 Recursive 메디안 필터는 기존의 Recursive 메디안 필터와 비교 했을 때, 에지 보존 측면에서 상당 부분 개선된 결과를 보였다.

This paper is concerned with development of an efficient Ρ-median approach applicable to large cell formation(CF) problems. A two-phase methodology that seeks to minimize the number of exceptional elements is proposed. In phase I, two efficient Ρ-median formulations which contain fewer binary variables than existing Ρ-median formulations are constructed. These make it possible to implement large CF problem within reasonable computer runtime with commercially available linear integer programming codes. Given the initial cell configuration found with the new p-median formulations, in phase II bottleneck machines and parts are reassigned to reduce the number of exceptional elements. This procedure has the flexibility to provide the cell designer with alternative solutions. Test results on large CF problems show a substantial efficiency of the new Ρ-median formulations.

This study reviews several well-known control charts for the location parameter with a discussion of the relationship between the maintenance of the control chart and a series of hypotheses testing. As a by-product, we then propose a new median control chart with the sign test statistic. We also modify the nonparametric control charts to easily understand the relation. Then we illustrate the construction of several median control charts with the industrial data and compare the efficiency among several control charts. Finally, we discuss some interesting features for the median control charts as concluding remarks.

Fatigue is the decline in force produced as a result of prolonged muscle activity. Localized muscle fatigue can be identified by a shift toward low in the frequency components of the EMG signal, typically represented by a fall in the median frequency. Previous studies show that a shortened muscle develops a higher fatigue than elongated muscles. The purpose of this study was to investigate the time-related change of median frequency and torque during maximal isometric back extension exercises at different exercise angles ($0^{\circ}$, $12^{\circ}$, $36^{\circ}$, $72^{\circ}$). Twenty healthy subjects (mean age = $24.35{\pm}2.70$) were evaluated in this study. Median frequency was extracted from the EMG signals by fast Fourier transform (FFT). Initial median frequency and the slope of median frequency change over time were computed from linear regression analysis. Pearson's product moment correlation was used to quantify the relationship between slope of median frequency and torque. The results were as follows: 1) Significant differences in y-intercepts of torque regression equation with respect to exercise angle were shown. However, there were no differences in the slopes of the median frequency and torque, and y intercept of the median frequency among exercise angles. 2) There was no significant correlation between slope of median frequency and torque. 3) But there was moderate correlation between median frequency and torque at each exercise angle. In conclusion, the exercise angle during maximal isometric back extension exercise is not a direct effect on slope of median frequency and torque. But results showed that median frequency and torque shift were highly correlated in all subjects.

The purpose of this study was to analyze the changes in muscle fatigue by using electromyography (EMG) measurements of the median frequency of shoulder muscles of patients who underwent rotator cuff repair, and to provide basic data for efficient exercise methods during rehabilitation after the repair. In the study, 24 male and 8 female patients who underwent rotator cuff repair performed continuous passive shoulder joint motion for 3 weeks and the median frequency of their shoulder muscles before and after the repair were compared using measurements by EMG. The infraspinatus, supraspinatus, and serratus anterior muscles showed significant differences in the changes in the median frequency before and after the repair. Significant differences were also found in the median frequency of the three muscles both before and after the repair. Additionally, the middle deltoid muscle had a lower median frequency than the supraspinatus muscle before the repair and the infraspinatus muscle had a lower median frequency than the middle deltoid muscle after the repair. It is expected that these results will serve as important data in developing rehabilitation exercise programs for the infraspinatus, supraspinatus, and serratus anterior muscles by compensating the middle deltoid muscle with the lowest muscle fatigue after the rotator cuff repair erase.

In this paper, we studied on the hardware implementation of a 3${\times}$3 window weighted median filter using bit-level sorting algorithm. The weighted median filter is a generalization of the median filter that is able to preserve :,harp changes in signal and is very effective in removing impulse noise. It has been successfully applied in various areas such as digital signal and video/image processing. The weighted median filters are, for the most part, based on word-level sorting methods, which have more hardware and time complexity, However, the proposed bit-serial sorting algorithm uses weighted adder tree to overcome those disadvantages. It also offers a simple pipelined filter architecture that is highly regular with repeated modules and is very suitable for weighted median filtering. The algorithm was implemented by VHDL and graphical environment in MAX＋PlusII of ALTERA. The simulation results indicate that the proposed design method is more efficient than the traditional ones.

영상처리는 디지털 시대를 맞이하여 영상복원 기술의 수요가 급증함에 따라 여러 분야에서 대중화되고 있다. 그러나 영상 데이터를 획득, 전송, 처리하는 과정에서 salt and pepper 잡음에 의해 영상이 훼손된다. 기존의 영상을 복원하는 대표적인 방법들은 SMF(standard median filter), CWMF(center weighted median filter), SWMF(switching weighted median filter) 등이 있으며, 이러한 필터들은 잡음 제거 및 에지 보존 특성이 다소 미흡하다. 따라서 제안한 알고리즘은 훼손된 영상을 복원하기 위해 변형된 메디안 필터를 제안하였다.

Background Median cleft lip is a rare anomaly consisting of a midline vertical cleft through the upper lip. It can also involve the premaxillary bone, the nasal septum, and the central nervous system. In our current report, we present the clinical features of 6 patients with a median cleft lip and their surgical management according to the accompanying anomalies. Methods From December 2010 to January 2014, 6 patients with a median cleft lip were reviewed. Five of these cases underwent surgical correction; alveolar bone grafting was performed in a patient with a median alveolar cleft. The surgical technique included inverted-U excision of the upper lip and repair of the orbicularis oris muscle. The mean follow-up period was 20.4 months (range, 7.4-44.0 months). Results The study patients presented various anomalous features. Five patients received surgical correction, 4 with repair of the median cleft lip, and one with iliac bone grafting for median alveolar cleft. A patient with basal sphenoethmoidal meningocele was managed with transoral endoscopic surgery for repair of the meningocele. Successful surgical repair was achieved in all cases with no postoperative complications. Conclusions Relatively mild forms of median cleft lip can be corrected with inverted-U excision with good aesthetic outcomes. In addition, there is a broad spectrum of clinical features and various anomalies, such as nasal deformity, alveolar cleft, and short upper frenulum, which require close evaluation. The timing of the operation should be decided considering the presence of other anomalies that can threaten patient survival.

중앙선 침범 관련 사고는 다른 사고에 비해 사고빈도는 낮지만 치명적인 사고로 이어질 가능성이 높기 때문에 이에 대한 적절한 사고감소대책이 필요하다. 중앙선 침범을 방지하는 대표적인 도로안전시설물이라 할 수 있는 중앙분리대는 도로의 안전 확보에 중요한 역할을 하며, 실제 그 효과에 대한 구체적인 분석을 통하여 향후 중앙분리대의 적극적인 활용을 도모하는 것을 연구의 목적으로 하고 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 중앙분리대의 형식, 성능 등에 대한 검토에 앞서 기본적으로 중앙분리대의 설치와 교통사고와의 관계를 분석해 보았다. 즉, 중앙분리대의 사고감소효과를 파악하기 위해 우리나라 4차로 이상의 일반국도를 대상으로 중앙분리대 설치 여부에 따른 사고자료를 비교하였다. 보다 체계적이고 효과적인 분석을 위해 총 사고뿐만 아니라 유형별·사고강도별·시간대별 사고를 비교하였으며, 다양한 효과척도(사고율. 사고점유율. EPDO)를 이용하여 사고빈도뿐만 아니라 사고강도까지 비교하였다. 지점별·구간별 사고분석 및 중앙분리대 신설지점에 대한 효과분석 결과 중앙분리대의 설치는 사고빈도와 함께 사고강도를 낮춤으로써 확실한 사고감소효과를 가져왔으며, 특히 정면충돌사고, 사망사고, 야간사고에 대한 사고감소효과가 크게 나타났다. 따라서 정면충돌사고. 사망사고, 야간사고가 빈번히 발생하는 도로구간(특히 단일로나 접속로의 경우)에 대한 중앙분리대의 설치는 교통사고 감소를 위한 중요한 대책이 될 수 있다. 이러한 연구를 통해 중앙분리대 설치에 따른 사고감소효과를 명확히 밝힘으로써 중앙분리대 설치의 당위성을 제공할 수 있을 뿐 만 아니라 향후 보다 효과적이고 합리적인 중앙분리대 설치구간 선정에 도움을 줄 것으로 사료된다.

Generally, the contribution of curbs and median strip is not considered carefully in analysing and designing the girder bridges. There being curbs, the load given on interior girder relatively reduced and on exterior girder increased. Curbs and median strip reduce the load distribution factor by distributing the load given on girder fairly, In this paper, the Influence of curbs and median strip in wheel distribution through parameter study and lateral distribution test of PSC girder bridge was investigated. Finite-element analysis was performed with parameterizing the flexural rigidity of the girder, span length, girder spacing, median strip, curbs. The influence of curbs and median strip would increase with lowering rigidity of girder. In addition, curbs lower the load distribution factor of exterior and interior girders.
