This study was conducted to ascertain infant's sleep and feeding patterns for the purpose of building up the positive parent-child relationship and setting up a preliminary parenting education program. The subjects were 16 infants who were cared for in their houses. The data was collected using NCASA developed by Barnard et al. from October 1st to December 3lth, 1999. The analysis of data was done with SPSSWIN for descriptive statistics and t-test, ANOVA, Correlation Analysis. The result were as follows: 1. The average day sleep of the infant was 9.51 hours, night sleep was 6.27 hours, and total sleep was 15.84 hours. The longest period of day sleep was 3.02 hours, and the longest period of night sleep was 3.72 hours. The regularity of day sleep was 34.78%, night sleep was 61.72% and total was 43.76%. 2. The frequency of daytime feeding was 5.13 times, nighttime was 2.44 times and total was 7.38 times. The regularity of feeding was 52.14%. 3. In the correlation between sleep and feeding patterns, night sleep was negatively correlated with feeding method(r=-.52, P<0.05), the longest period of day sleep was negatively correlated with feeding method(r=-.73, P<0.001), feeding frequency(r=-.60, P<0.05), the regularity of feeding(r=-.70, P<0.001). The longest period of night sleep was negatively correlated with feeding frequency (r=-.53, P<0.05). Feeding method was positively correlated with feeding frequency(r=.71, P<0.001), the regularity of feeding(r=.57, P<0.05). Day sleep was positively correlated with total sleep(r=.93, P<0.001), the regularity of total sleep was positively correlated with the longest period of day sleep(r=.54, P<0.05), total sleep(r=.65, P<0.001). The regularity of feeding was positively correlated with feeding method(r=.57, P<0.05), total feeding frequency(r=.50, P<0.05), the frequency of daytime feeding(r=.61, P<0.05). Feeding method was positively correlated with total feeding frequency(r=.71, P<0.001). In conclusion, the study showed that infants slept more in the nighttime than in the daytime, but after 3 months the pattern changed and showed that nighttime sleep was increased. Also the regularity of night sleep was increased with the infant's age. Total feeding frequency was decreased with the infant's age, and the regularity of feeding was increased in infants who slept shorter periods in the daytime than in the nighttime.

This paper proposes a stereo vision-based forward obstacle detection and distance measurement method. In general, stereo vision-based obstacle detection methods in automotive applications can be classified into two categories: IPM (Inverse Perspective Mapping)-based and disparity histogram-based. The existing disparity histogram-based method was developed for stop-and-go applications. The proposed method extends the scope of the disparity histogram-based method to highway applications by 1) replacing the fixed rectangular ROI (Region Of Interest) with the traveling lane-based ROI, and 2) replacing the peak detection with a constant threshold with peak detection using the threshold-line and peakness evaluation. In order to increase the true positive rate while decreasing the false positive rate, multiple candidate peaks were generated and then verified by the edge feature correlation method. By testing the proposed method with images captured on the highway, it was shown that the proposed method was able to overcome problems in previous implementations while being applied successfully to highway collision warning/avoidance conditions, In addition, comparisons with laser radar showed that vision sensors with a wider FOV (Field Of View) provided faster responses to cutting-in vehicles. Finally, we integrated the proposed method into a longitudinal collision avoidance system. Experimental results showed that activated braking by risk assessment using the state of the ego-vehicle and measuring the distance to upcoming obstacles could successfully prevent collisions.

Several voltage instability/collapse problems that have occurred in the electric utility industry worldwide have gained the attention of engineers and researchers of electric power systems. This paper proposes an effective calculation scheme of the extreme loading point and nose curves(P-V curves) using modified Newton-Raphson(N-R) load flow method and the Continuation Method. This method provides detail and visual information of the power system voltage profile and operating margin ro operators and planners. In this paper, a modified load flow claculation method for ill-conditioned power systems is introduced for the purpose of seeking more precise load flow solutions and nose curves, and the Continuation Method is also used as a part of the solution algorithm for the calculation of extreme loading point and nose curves. The conventional polar coordinate based N-R load flow program is modified to avoid numerical difficulties caused by the singularity of the Jacobian matrix occuring in the vicinity of extreme loading point of heavily loaded systems. Application results of the proposed method to Klos-Kerner 11-bus system and modified IEE-30-bus system are presented to assure the usefulness of the approach.

최근 메인 메모리 기반에서 R-Tree의 성능을 개선하기 위해 캐시를 고려한 색인 구조들이 제안되었다. 이들 색인 구조의 일반적인 캐시 성능 개선 방법은 엔트리 크기를 줄여 펜-아웃(fanout)을 증가시키고 하나의 노드에 더 많은 엔트리를 저장함으로써 캐시 실패를 최소화하는 것이다. 그러나 이러한 방법은 갱신시 줄어든 엔트리 정보를 복원하는 추가 연산으로 갱신 성능이 떨어지고, 노드간 이동시 발생하는 캐시 실패는 여전히 성능 저하의 큰 문제가 되고 있다. 본 논문은 이러한 문제점을 개선하기 위해 메인 메모리에서 R-Tree에 선반입을 적용한 확장된 메인 메모리 기반 R-Tree 색인 기법인 PR-Tree를 제안하고 평가하였다. PR-Tree는 R-Tree의 근본적인 변형없이 노드 크기를 선반입에 최적화되도록 확장하고, 노드간 이동시 자식 노드를 선반입하여 캐시 실패를 최소화하였다. PR-Tree는 실험에서 R-Tree보다 검색 연산에서는 최대 38%의 성능 향상을 보였고, 갱신 연산에서는 최대 30%의 성능 향상을 보였고, 또한 노드 분할 연산에서는 최대 67%의 성능 향상을 보였다.

FFT(Fast Fourier Transform) 프로세서는 OFDM(Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) 시스템에서 사용된다. 근래에는 광대역과 이동성에 대한 요구가 높아짐에 따라 큰 포인트를 가지는 FFT 프로세서의 연구가 필요하다. FFT 포인트 수가 증가할수록 회전인자가 저장된 메모리가 차지하는 면적은 증가한다. 본 논문에서는 Radix-2, $2^2,\;2^3,\;2^4$ 알고리즘의 회전인자 인덱스 생성 방법을 제안한다. 제안한 회전인자 인덱스 생성기(Twiddle Factor Index Generator : TFIG)는 간단하게 카운터와 양수곱셈기로만 구성된다. 각각의 R2SDF(Radix-2 Single-Path Delay Feedback), $R2^2SDF,\;R2^3SDF,\;R2^4SDF$ 1024포인트 FFT 프로세서에 ROM 크기를 1/8N로 줄인 회전인자 계수 생성기(Twiddle Factor Coefficient Generator : TFCG)를 설계하여 제안한 알고리즘을 검증하였다. $R2^4SDF$의 TFCG 경우 면적, 전력에서 각 57.9%, 57.5%정도의 이득을 얻었다.

Erythrocyte sedimentation rate(ESR) measurements were performed in a total of 191 blood samples from patients below a hematocrit of 35% by both the Test-1(SIRE Analytical Systems, Udine, Italy) and the Westergren method, endorsed as the reference method for ESR by the International Council for Standardization in Hematology(ICSH). The corrected Westergren ESR values were also obtained applying the formula of Fabry (corrected ESR = ESR measured x 15/55-Hct). Linear regression analysis showed a close correlation (r=0.85) between the two methods both before and after ESR correction in total samples. There was no significant correlation difference between two methods in both two groups with hemoglobin $${\geq_-}9g/dl$$ and <9g/dl before and after ESR correction (r=0.873, r=0.827 respectively before correction and r=0.867, r=0.830 respectively after correction). Also, for two groups with hematocrit $${\geq_-}24%$$ and <24%, no significant difference was observed (r=0.859, r=0.792 respectively before correction and r=0.782, r=0.842 respectively after correction). However, for samples with <60mm of Westergren ESR before correction, a better correlation coefficient was obtained than samples with $${\geq_-}60mm$$(r=0.701, r=0.541 respectively). In corrected Westergren ESR, also samples that were obtained with <40mm showed better correlation than samples with $${\geq_-}40mm$$ (r=0.690, r=0.347 respectively). In conclusion, we found a good correlation between Test-1 and Westergren measurements in patients with anemia but an expert group discussion is required to solve discrepancy between two methods in blood samples with very high ESR.

An easy and reliable HPLC method was developed to determine allantoin in Dioscorea Rhizoma using cyano columns. Qualitative and quantitative analyses of allantoin were performed successfully by cyano columns (YMC-Pack CN column, Zorbax SB-CN column and Discovery$^{(R)}$ Cyano column). The intraday precision were 0.58 - 3.33% for YMC-Pack CN, 0.41 - 2.20 for Zorbax SB-CN and 0.45 - 1.93% Discovery$^{(R)}$ Cyano columns, while interday variations were 0.09 - 1.84%, 0.04 - 2.59% and 0.87 - 5.18% for YMC-Pack CN, Zorbax SB-CN and Discovery$^{(R)}$ Cyano columns. The recoveries of allantoin were in the range at 98.8 - 102.6% (RSD 1.1 - 1.6%) for YMC-Pack CN column, 99.7 - 110.5% (RSD 1.3 - 4.9%) for Zorbax SB-CN column, and 97.2 - 110.1% (RSD 1.8 - 5.7%) for Discovery$^{(R)}$ Cyano column. The contents of allantoin in four Dioscorea Rhizoma samples were determined by cyano columms and ranged at 4.1-7.1 mg/g dry weight. The present study indicated that HPLC method using cyano column for determining allantoin is a reliable method and this method can be applied to verify allantoin in Dioscorea Rhizoma.
