Purpose: In assessing patients' neurological status following a stroke it is very important to have a valid tool for early detection of neurological deterioration. NIHSS is considered the best tool to reflect neurological status in patients with ischemic stroke. An education program on use of NIHSS was planned for nurses caring for these patients and the effects of the program were evaluated. Methods: The NIHSS education program (NEP) which includes online and video lectures, and practical education was provided to the nurses from April to July, 2010. To examine the effect of NEP, nursing records of patients with ischemic stroke who were admitted to a stroke center were analyzed. Two groups, a historical control group (n=100) and the study group (n=115) were included. Results: Nursing records for neurologic symptoms for each patient increased (41.0% versus 100.0%, p<.001), and especially, visual disturbance, facial palsy. limb paralysis and ataxia, language disturbance, dysarthria, and neglect symptoms significantly increased (all p<.001). Nurse notification to the doctor of patients with neurological changes increased (21.0% versus 39.1%, p=.004), and nurses' neurological deterioration detection rates also increased (37.5% versus 84.6%, p=.009). Conclusion: NEP improved the quality of nursing records for neurological assessment and the detection rate of neurological deterioration.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to develop an exercise program for postmastectomy patients. Method: This study was conducted from October, 2003 to June, 2004. The exercise program was developed based on literature review and needs assessment using focus group interviews. The subjects for the focus group interview consisted of 11 patients, 13 recovering patients, and 20 nurses from 3 hospitals. Development of the program was proceeded with analysusm design and development steps. Result: The results of the needs assessment using the focus group interview showed that the exercise program was imperative for postmastectomy patients. Based on the results, a home video tape containing 3 steps, was developed. Each step includes warming-up, stretching, the main exercise, and cool-down. Steps 2 and 3 include exercises with an elastic band, and an elastic ball. The program was modified after conducting a pre-test. A self-checklist including shoulder mobility, hand strength, arm volume and subjective comments on how they feel will be used before and after the exercise program. Conclusion: The exercise program will improve breast cancer patients' quality of life and their physical well-being. Further studies are recommended to test the effectiveness of the exercise program.

Siamese-based segmentation and tracking algorithms improve accuracy and stability for video object segmentation and tracking tasks simultaneously. Although effective, variability in target appearance and background clutter can still affect segmentation accuracy and further influence the performance of tracking. In this paper, we present a memory propagation-based target-aware and mask-attention decision network for robust object segmentation and tracking. Firstly, a mask propagation-based attention module (MPAM) is constructed to explore the inherent correlation among image frames, which can mine mask information of the historical frames. By retrieving a memory bank (MB) that stores features and binary masks of historical frames, target attention maps are generated to highlight the target region on backbone features, thus suppressing the adverse effects of background clutter. Secondly, an attention refinement pathway (ARP) is designed to further refine the segmentation profile in the process of mask generation. A lightweight attention mechanism is introduced to calculate the weight of low-level features, paying more attention to low-level features sensitive to edge detail so as to obtain segmentation results. Finally, a mask fusion mechanism (MFM) is proposed to enhance the accuracy of the mask. By utilizing a mask quality assessment decision network, the corresponding quality scores of the "initial mask" and the "previous mask" can be obtained adaptively, thus achieving the assignment of weights and the fusion of masks. Therefore, the final mask enjoys higher accuracy and stability. Experimental results on multiple benchmarks demonstrate that our algorithm performs outstanding performance in a variety of challenging tracking tasks.

Lately rainfall characteristics that it rains a lot in a short space of time often occurs. Because of this meteorological phenomena, the flow rate and concentration of initial rainfall for runoff and combined sewer overflows are changed. In the case of this inlet fluctuation, the flotation method at high surface loading rate is suitable for water quality management. the flotation method is able to meet the removal rate requirements of water public zone in 5 to 10 min which is irelatively short period. For assessment and diagonision of flotation method, A/S ratio is applied until now. But unfortunately, this has some limits for evaluation standard for certification and assessment of technical diagnosis and operation. This is why there is different efficiency in the bubble distribution at the same A/S ratio. The velocity and time of floating is changed by the different bubble distributions. The floating time affects the plant volume because the time factor make size dicision. Therefore the charateristics of bubble distribution and floating time at the same A/S ratio is necessary to apply to evaluation standard for certification and assessment of technical diagnosis and operation. For generalization of the method in certification and assessment, the characteristics of bubble distribution was studied. Until recently, using the optical device and shooting live video, there are some analysis technology of the floating factors. But this kind of technology is influenced by the equipment. with this level of confidence about the results, it is difficult to apply to generalize. According this reasons, this study should be applied on experiment generalization of method about measurement of relation between bubble distribution and floating time.

This paper analyzed 20 teaching practices of elementary mathematics lessons which were recognized as effective instruction by the local educational offices throughout Korea, using an analytic framework with 4 main domains (i.e., curriculum and content, teaching and learning, classroom environment and atmosphere, and assessment) and a total of 44 sub-elements. The results of this study showed that the lessons focused on the key mathematics concepts according to the national mathematics curriculum and learning objectives, managed students in terms of shared rules within each classroom, and evaluated students' understanding of the concepts at the end of the lesson. However, the lessons did not foster students' calculation skills and only partly used either technology or game. Building on the related studies, this paper included implications of implementing high-quality mathematics instruction.

In this paper, a reception rate of terrestrial digital TV broadcasting service is analyzed and a novel method which can estimate the broadcasting coverage rate more objectively and reliably than the existing method is proposed. Previous method measures the reception rate by means of electric field intensity measurement or subjective video quality assessment. Because of limited measuring points, it inherently has measurement error and cannot consider the viewer's receiving conditions in real-time. In order to consider the viewer's population and receiving environment, morphology which characterizes the viewer's receiving environment is extracted using household census data of National Statistical Office and the land cover map of Ministry of Environment. Using the extracted geographical morphology, the reception rate of terrestrial digital TV broadcasting service is calculated with Spectrum Management Intelligence System (SMIs). Proposed method can calculate the reception rate more objectively and reliably than the existing methods because it fully considers the viewer's receiving environments in real-time.
