In this paper we propose an efficient approach for real-time eye-gaze tracking from image sequence and magnetic sensory information. The inputs to the eye-gaze tracking system are images taken by a camera and data from a magnetic sensor. The measuring data are sufficient to describe the eye and head movement, because the camera and the receiver of a magnetic sensor are stationary with respect to the head. Experimental result shows the validity of real time application aspect of the proposed system and also shows the feasibility of the system as using a new computer interface instead of the mouse.

Background Craniosynostosis management using distraction osteogensis represent a challenge for surgeons due to the great variability of the skull deformity even within the same etiology. The ability to apply the simulation surgery for improving the preoperative planning for distraction osteogensis could improve the results.Planning and Simulation 14 patients presented with craniosynostosis had been subjected to simulation surgery prior to real surgery. 3D CT scans was obtained upon patient admission. Adjustment of all skull position to Frankfort horizontal plane was done. 3 different distraction osteogensis plans were done for each patient according to the skull morphology. For each plane, movement for each bone segment was done according to the pre-planned distraction vectors. Also the distances of distractions were pre-determined according to the cephalic index as well as brain volume. Intraoperatively, we choose the most appropriate plan for the patient by the surgeon. At the end of distraction, 3D CT scan was obtained, and was compared to the simulation plan. Also the distance and the direction of distraction was compared to that of the plan. Accordingly, the distance was almost matching that of the simulation surgery, however the vector of distraction was not matched.Conclusion Preoperative stimulation planning for craniosynostosis patient is very valuable tool in the surgical management of craniosynostosis patients.

Leukotriene B4 (LTB4) is a potent chemoattractant for leukocytes and considered to be an inflammatory mediator. Human BLT2 (hBLT2) is a low-affinity G-protein coupled receptor for LTB4 and mediates pertussis toxin-sensitive chemotactic cell movement. Here, we dissected the interaction between hBLT2 and G-protein alpha subunits using GST fusion proteins containing intracellular regions of hBLT2 and various Gα protein including Gα i1, Gα i2, Gα i3, Gα s1, Gα o1, and Gα z. Among the tested Gα subunits, Gα i3 showed the highest binding to the third intracellular loop region of hBLT2 with a dissociation constant (KD) of 5.0 × 10?6 M. These results suggest that Gα i3 has the highest affinity to hBLT2, and the third intracellular loop region of hBLT2 is the major component for the interaction with Gα i3.

The purpose of this research is to develop a virtual reality system which enables to actually experience the virtual reality through the visual sense of human. TSS was applied in tracing the movement of moving picture in this research. By applying TSS, it was possible to calculate multiple motion vectors from moving picture, and then camera's motion parameters were obtained by utilizing the relationship between the motion vectors. For the purpose of experiencing the virtual reality by synchronizing the camera's accelerated velocity and the simulator's movements, the relationship between the value of camera's accelerated velocity and the simulator's movements was analyzed and its result was applied to the neutral network training. It has been proved that the proposed virtual reality immersion system in this dissertation can dynamically control the movements of moving picture and can also operate the simulator quite similarly to the real movements of moving picture.

This paper presents the impact minimization of a biped robot by using genetic algorithm. In case we want to accomplish the designed plan under the special environments, a robot will be required to have walking capability and patterns with legs, which are in a similar manner as the gaits of insects, dogs and human beings. In order to walk more effectively, studies of mobile robot movement are needed. To generate optimal motion for a biped robot, we employ genetic algorithm. Genetic algorithm is searching for technology that can look for solution from the whole district, and it is possible to search optimal solution from a fitness function that needs not to solve differential equation. In this paper, we generate trajectories of gait and trunk motion by using genetic algorithm. Using genetic algorithm not only on gait trajectory but also on trunk motion trajectory, we can obtain the smoothly stable motion of robot that has the least impact during the walk. All of the suggested motions of biped robot are investigated by simulations and verified through the real implementation.

In this paper, we introduce fuzzy algorithm similar to human's way of thinking and designed collision detection system of vehicles. First, before the model vehicles design, we did simulation collision detection using PID and Fuzzy Controller. As a result, P.O that is Percent Overshoot when make use of PID controller happened from smallest 32% to 45%. But, In case of using fuzzy controller they produced about 10% in 7% in case use 25 rule. We designed model vehicles that introduce Auto Guided Vehicle(AGV) with confirmed result in simulation. We set Polaroid 6500 sensor on the front of model automobile because distinguish existence automobile to the head. And we composed motor drive part to run vehicles and 80C196KC processor for control movement of vehicles influenced on distance data of the front vehicles that receive from supersonic waves sensor. In case of using Fuzzy controller, last value percent error happened about maximum 15% in smallest 5%, and we confirmed that distance with front vehicles kept when state hold time is about maximum 16 seconds in smallest 10 seconds.

As increasing needs of marine transportation , world merchant fleet and ship's size were enlarged and it caused frequent disasters in human lives and natural environment. By the reason of the above, they started to establish the Vessel Traffic System (VTS) at the European coast in 1960' and most of advanced contries established and managed it to prevent the sea traffic accidents in these days. The concept of traffic control at sea can be divided into three types. First, the initial gathering of informations about ship's identity and movement etc.. Second, monitoring of the traffic flow and amendment of instructions. Third , organization and direction of ships by allocating routes and speeds. Where the goal of traffic control is safety of traffics and developing effectiveness of navigation channel, if traffic volume is less tan channel capacity then the above first or second level of control would be sufficient but if it is bigger than that , more positive policy of control should be adopted as same as third type of the above. In this paper where the strategy of VTS is focused on the control of traffic density to be spread equality, as possible , all over the navigation channels and also improvement of effectiveness , it suggests algorithm to assign the vessels to the channels with balanced traffic density , and other algorithms using D.P. to sequence the vessels assigned to one channel in optimum order which decreases the mean waiting time in sense of channel effectiveness with numerical examples.

This paper proposes a hierarchical approach to shape model ASM using wavelet transform. Local structure model fitting in the ASM plays an important role in model-based pose and shape analysis. The proposed algorithm can robustly find good solutions in complex images by using wavelet decomposition. we also proposed effective method that estimates and corrects object's movement by using Wavelet transform-based hierarchical motion estimation scheme for ASM-based, real-time video tracking. The proposed algorithm has been tested for various sequences containing human motion to demonstrate the improved performance of the proposed object tracking.
