  • Since it is important to understand data acquiring characteristics through relationship between spatial types and spatial elements and apply it to spatial plans for smooth communication between designer and user of space, the conclusions gained from analysis of data acquiring characteristics of spatial elements through image evaluation by types of interior space can be summarized as in the followings: First, for the amount of acquired data by types of interior space, it shows that the acquired amount of data is to change by types and data acquiring method (phrase and image) even though the spatial elements are same. Second, for the data acquiring process of spatial types by gender, it shows that there is a big difference in acquiring of data according to the evaluation method by phrase and image. Third, for the amount of acquired data of spatial types by gender, it shows that there is a difference between male and female, which is by "classic ${\rightarrow}$ modern ${\rightarrow}$ natural" in case of male and "classic ${\rightarrow}$ natural ${\rightarrow}$ modern" in case of female. regarding both of phrase and image. Fourth, for the evaluation by gender, it shows that there is a deviation in the value of difference according to the elements by which data acquiring characteristics evaluate space. It is considered that this deviation characteristic is in need of reflection in the process of spatial evaluation. This study analyzed data acquiring characteristics of space user's spatial elements through image evaluation by types of space to understand how data acquiring would be changed of spatial elements according to type and gender. Through this study, it expects to make clear that, when a designer is planning a certain space, if the space can be a space for the user by understanding of which elements should be exposed to users by types to acquire more data.

  • 유방촬영술은 유방암의 조기진단과 기본적인 스크리닝 검사의 진단방법으로서 디지털유방영상시스템의 보급과 유방촬영에 대한 관심이 점점 증가하고 있다. 유방영상의 화질은 타깃물질과 필터의 조합에 의해 결정되며, 이러한 조합은 X선 스펙트럼도 변화되지만 화질과 환자의 피폭선량에도 큰 영향을 주기 때문에 환자의 유선밀도와 두께에 따른 적합한 조합의 선택이 필요하다. 이에 본 연구에서는 디지털유방영상시스템에서 정량적인 영상평가와 몬테카를로 시뮬레이션을 이용한 환자의 피폭선량을 저감시킬 수 있는 타깃과 필터 조합을 제시하고자 한다. 그 결과 MTF, NPS, DQE의 영상평가에서 압박 유방의 두께가 얇은 경우는 Mo/Mo또는 Mo/Rh 조합, 두꺼운 경우에는 Rh/Rh또는 W/Rh조합의 영상이 우수하게 나타났다. 또한 임상에서 얇은 두께의 유방에 잘 사용하지 않는 W/Rh조합이 공간해상력 평가 결과에서 우수한 것으로 나타났다. 그리고 선량평가에서 압박 유방두께가 얇은 경우 Mo/Mo또는 Mo/Rh조합, 압박 유방두께 6cm 이상의 경우 Rh/Rh또는 W/Rh조합에서 피폭선량이 감소하였다. 두 번째 장기선량 평가에서는 검사 유방 외에 반대 유방의 선량이 검사 유방을 기준으로 약 47~73% 정도의 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 결론적으로 다양한 유방 두께에 따른 최적의 타깃과 필터 조합을 선택하는 것이 환자 피폭선량 감소에 도움이 될 것이다.

  • The purpose of this study is to apply a deep learning model that can distinguish lung perfusion and lung ventilation images in nuclear medicine, and to evaluate the image classification ability. Image data pre-processing was performed in the following order: image matrix size adjustment, min-max normalization, image center position adjustment, train/validation/test data set classification, and data augmentation. The convolutional neural network(CNN) structures of VGG-16, ResNet-18, Inception-ResNet-v2, and SE-ResNeXt-101 were used. For classification model evaluation, performance evaluation index of classification model, class activation map(CAM), and statistical image evaluation method were applied. As for the performance evaluation index of the classification model, SE-ResNeXt-101 and Inception-ResNet-v2 showed the highest performance with the same results. As a result of CAM, cardiac and right lung regions were highly activated in lung perfusion, and upper lung and neck regions were highly activated in lung ventilation. Statistical image evaluation showed a meaningful difference between SE-ResNeXt-101 and Inception-ResNet-v2. As a result of the study, the applicability of the CNN model for lung scintigraphy classification was confirmed. In the future, it is expected that it will be used as basic data for research on new artificial intelligence models and will help stable image management in clinical practice.

Second, the image of the important lobby space was grasped in order of convenient image(M = 3.98) bright image(M = 3.87), and cozy image(M = 3.80). Third, the results on investigating semantic structure of the lobby image, emotional factor, styling factor, spatial factor, and peculiar factor are composed of important factors that decides image of lobby space. Fourth, as the result of image analysis for lobby space, the degree of satisfaction for the local cultural institution was entirely low against the importance. In particular, the image for convenience, individuality, locality and dignity was not sufficient in all the three places. Therefore, lobby design of local cultural institution shall also suggest more various lobby space image from culture oriented viewpoint.

  • 상강화기는 형광 영상장치에서 영상의 특성을 결정하는 주된 요소이다. 본 연구는 두가지의 상강화기를 임상에서 평가하기 위하여 간단하고 비파괴적이며 적당한 시간내에 행할 수 있는 계의 활동 프로그램을 제시하였다. 이 프로그램은 크게 세 부분 즉, X-선 발생장치, 영상의 질, 조준으로 되어있다. X-선의 발생장치에 대하여 관전압의 정확도와 자동노출 조절기능을 비교하였다. 영상의 질을 위해서는 저대비 및 고대비 분해능 측정, 체격자 실험 등을 수행하였으며 이 실험에서는 비디오 모니터 및 순간영상을 필름화한 정량적인 분석을 분석하였다. 조준에 대해서는 상강화기의 유용한 영역의 직경과 상의 찌그러짐을 측정하고 정량적인 분석을 하였다. 이 실험들의 과정 및 결과들이 상강화기의 인수검사 및 계의 활동지수를 평가하는데 이용되기를 바란다.

  • This study investigates the effects of the purpose of fishery firms' social contributions on consumers' purchase intention as a mediator or their fishery firms' brand evaluation. We surveyed 300 consumers in order to empirically test the suggested relationship. The purpose of fishery firms' social contributions was divided into social contribution activities and public interest marketing strategies. Fishery firms' brand evaluation was divided into three aspects including brand awareness, brand image, and brand loyalty. The results showed that the purpose of fishery firms' social contributions significantly affect consumers' purchase intention, brand loyalty as well as brand image except brand awareness. Fishery firms' brand evaluation significantly affect consumers' purchase intention. This study suggests that social contribution activities and public interest marketing strategies are essential for the positive brand evaluation of fishery firms.

  • The present work proposes a new image analysis method for the evaluation of the multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWNT) distribution in a cement matrix. In this method, white cement was used instead of ordinary Portland cement with MWNT in an effort to differentiate MWNT from the cement matrix. In addition, MWNT-embedded cement composites were fabricated under different flows of fresh composite mixtures, incorporating a constant MWNT content (0.6 wt%) to verify correlation between the MWNT distribution and flow. The image analysis demonstrated that the MWNT distribution was significantly enhanced in the composites fabricated under a low flow condition, and DC conductivity results revealed the dramatic increase in the conductivity of the composites fabricated under the same condition, which supported the image analysis results. The composites were also prepared under the low flow condition (114 mm < flow < 126 mm), incorporating various MWNT contents. The image analysis of the composites revealed an increase in the planar occupation ratio of MWNT, and DC conductivity results exhibited dramatic increase in the conductivity (percolation phenomena) as the MWNT content increased. The image analysis and DC conductivity results indicated that fabrication of the composites under the low flow condition was an effective way to enhance the MWNT distribution.

  • We evaluated the performance of an improved hybrid median filter (IHMF) applied to X-ray computed tomography (CT) images obtained using a high-resolution photon-counting cadmium zinc telluride (CZT) detector. To study how the proposed approach improves the image quality, we measured the noise levels and the overall CT-image quality. We established a CZT imaging system with a detector length of 5.12 cm and thickness of 0.3 cm and acquired phantom images. To evaluate the efficacy of the proposed filter, we first modeled two conventional median filters. Subsequently, we were able to achieve a normalized noise power spectrum result of ~10-8 mm2, and furthermore, the proposed method improved the contrast-to-noise ratio by a factor of ~1.51 and the coefficient of variation by 1.55 relative to the counterpart values of the no-filter image. In addition, the IHMF exhibited the best performance among the three filters considered as regards the peak signal-to-noise ratio and no-reference-based image-quality evaluation parameters. Thus, our results demonstrate that the IHMF approach provides a superior image performance over conventional median filtering methods when applied to actual CZT X-ray CT images.
