Purpose: To verify the BRW coordinates of target located within the limit of XKnife hardware, and to verify the successful transfer of image data, rod detection, anatomical structure when CT images are transferred into a XKnife computer. Materials and Methods: Target coordinates of 13 patients were calculated by SCS1 computer through the rod image on the console screen and film. BRW coordinates of target and landmark calculated by SCS1 computer were compared to those acquired by XKnife localizer. Results : Vertical components of BRW coordinates of target for 13 patients are larger than -50 mm, and then the vertical components of BRW coordinates of target are localized within the limit of XKnife hardware. Average differences between XKnife and SCS1 for BRW coordinates of target and landmark were within 1 mm for AP and LAT components, 0.5 mm for VERT component. Conclusion : It was verified that the SCS1 computer is adequate tool to calculate BRW coordinates of target quickly. And by the comparison between SCS1 computer and XKnife localizer, it was verified that the image transfer into the XKnife computer was performed successfully.

선진각국에서 고령화 문제를 해결하기 위하여 고령친화 산업과 관련된 많은 연구들이 진행되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 노인 요양 또는 복지 시설 내 노인들의 거주 환경 변화 및 거주자의 활동 양상을 측정하는 유비쿼터스 노인케어 시스템 knu-SCS(KangNam Ubiquitous Senior Care System)에 대하여 연구하였다. knu-SCS 시스템은 조도, 습도, 온도 센서, 카메라 등으로 구성되며, 각종 센서들이 감지한 데이터를 저장, 가공, 분석하여 데이터베이스에 저장을 하고 저장된 데이터들을 사용자들에게 시각적으로 제시하기 위하여 센서 웹을 구현하였다. 센서 웹에서 제공하는 데이터들은 일상적인 노인 행동 및 생활환경을 인지할 수 있는 자료가 되므로, 이를 기초로 노인들이 겪을 수 있는 건강상 문제, 갑작스런 생활의 변화감지, 일상생활의 불편함을 해소하는 등 노인케어에 효과적으로 활용될 수 있다.

In this paper, we propose MSAG-SCS-MMA-I adaptive blind equalization with double step size with very small residual ISI and MSE at steady-state while significantly improving the convergence speed of the traditional SCS-MMA-I algorithm in 256-QAM system. And we evaluate the equalization performance for this algorithm. Different step sizes according to the absolute value of decision-directed error instead of a fixed step-size are applied to the tap update equation of MSAG-SCS-MMA-I, which is controlled by binary flags of '1' or '0' obtained from SCS-MMA-I and decision-directed algorithms. This makes for excellent equalization performance. As a result of computer simulation, we confirmed that the proposed algorithm has more better performance than the MMA, SCS-MMA-I, and MSAG-SCS-MMA-I algorithms in terms of the performance index such as residual ISI, MSE, and MD.

Sebaceous carcinoma (SC) is a rare malignant tumor, with an estimated incidence of approximately 1 to 2 per 1,000,000 per year. Approximately 75% of SCs are reported to occur in eyelids. Most of these tumors are diagnosed at age 40 or over and exhibit a wide variety of patterns in addition to the general appearance previously reported. SC is difficult to diagnose clinically, but can be diagnosed by accompanying biopsy. In cases of SC, additional examinations, such as endoscopy and computed tomography, may be necessary because of its association with Muir-Torre Syndrome. We present the case of a 22-year-old Asian man who complained of a rapidly growing chin tumor. The tumor was treated by surgical resection and adjuvant radiation therapy.

The enormous prevalence of transferring official confidential digital documents via the Internet shows the urgent need to deliver confidential messages to the recipient without letting any unauthorized person to know contents of the secret messages or detect there existence . Several Steganography techniques such as the least significant Bit (LSB), Secure Cover Selection (SCS), Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT) and Palette Based (PB) were applied to prevent any intruder from analyzing and getting the secret transferred message. The utilized steganography methods should defiance the challenges of Steganalysis techniques in term of analysis and detection. This paper presents a novel and robust framework for color image steganography that combines Linear Congruential Generator (LCG), simulated annealing (SA), Cesar cryptography and LSB substitution method in one system in order to reduce the objection of Steganalysis and deliver data securely to their destination. SA with the support of LCG finds out the optimal minimum sniffing path inside a cover color image (RGB) then the confidential message will be encrypt and embedded within the RGB image path as a host medium by using Cesar and LSB procedures. Embedding and extraction processes of secret message require a common knowledge between sender and receiver; that knowledge are represented by SA initialization parameters, LCG seed, Cesar key agreement and secret message length. Steganalysis intruder will not understand or detect the secret message inside the host image without the correct knowledge about the manipulation process. The constructed system satisfies the main requirements of image steganography in term of robustness against confidential message extraction, high quality visual appearance, little mean square error (MSE) and high peak signal noise ratio (PSNR).

Interdisciplinary approach has been recognized as one of key strategies to address various and complex research problems in modern science. The purpose of this study is to investigate the interdisciplinary characteristics and structure of the field of big data. Among the 1,083 journals related to the field of big data, multiple Subject Categories (SC) from the Web of Science were assigned to 420 journals (38.8%) and 239 journals (22.1%) were assigned with the SCs from different fields. These results show that the field of big data indicates the characteristics of interdisciplinarity. In addition, through bibliographic coupling network analysis of top 56 journals, 10 clusters in the network were recognized. Among the 10 clusters, 7 clusters were from computer science field focusing on technical aspects such as storing, processing and analyzing the data. The results of cluster analysis also identified multiple research works of analyzing and utilizing big data in various fields such as science & technology, engineering, communication, law, geography, bio-engineering and etc. Finally, with measuring three types of centrality (betweenness centrality, nearest centrality, triangle betweenness centrality) of journals, computer science journals appeared to have strong impact and subjective relations to other fields in the network.
