We propose an algorithm to detect the face region using a variable ellipsoidal mask and a neural network. Since outlines of human faces are similar to ellipsoid, the ellipsoidal mask that has the fixed ratio of major and minor axis can be used to detect the candidate area. The positions of eyes and lips are extracted in this candidate area, and then the morphological analysis is applied to make features which are consist of six parameters, such as the geometrical ratio of eyes and lips. A back-propagation neural network is used as a classifier to determine the most possible face region. The experimental result is conducted to verify its efficiency compared with those of previous works.

Present study was performed to observe the surface ultrastructures of Stictadora furcatum (Trematoda: Heterophyidae). Adult worms were recovered from the cat experimentally infected with metacercariae, and were prepared for scanning electron microscopy. The body was leaf-like and ventrally concave. The oral sucker armed with prominent tegumental spines on the inner surface, and it's lips were obscure. Sensory papillae (type I) in single or grouped forms symmetrically arranged around the oral sucker. The ventrogenital opening retained protruding gonotyl spines and sperms discharged from the genital pore . The body surface was covered with scale-like multipointed tegumental spines. The density and digitated point of spines were gradually decreased toward the posterior end of the body. The digitated points of spines on the anterior portion were 9-12, on the middle were 7-8 and 5-6, and on the posterior were 2-3 and peg-like. Although the tegumental ultrastructure of S. fuscatum was generally similar to those of other heterophyid flukes , the oral sucker with tegumental spines on the inner surface and without obvious lips, and the ventrogenital opening with protruding gonotyl spines were suggested to be the characteristic features.

The purpose of this study was to determine the effectiveness of CPAP (Continuous Positive Airway Pressure) therapy on the treatment of hypernasality in patients with cleft lips and palates. 7 preschool children with severe hypernasality participated in the study. Acoustic measurements of nasality were done by using the NasalView (version 1.31). Results showed that the nasalance values were reduced linearly in both vowels according to the treatment period. The sharp treatment effect was observed at the beginning stage. The nasality values of the vowel /i/ showed a sharp decrease at the Evaluation Phase 1 and 2 and a small increase at the Phase 4 followed by a drop in the end. Further studies would be desirable for various patients with different disorder types.

이 연구는 인식의 정확성을 향상시키기 위하여 단일생체 인식 대신에 얼굴, 입술, 음성을 이용하는 다중생체 인식방법을 제안한다. 각 생체 특징은 다음과 같은 방법으로 찾는다. 얼굴 특징은 웨이블렛 다중분해와 주성분 분석방법으로 계산하였고, 입술의 경우는 입술의 경계를 구한후 최소 자승법을 이용한 방정식의 계수를 구하였으며, 음성은 멜 주파수에 의한 MFCC를 사용하였으며, 역전파 학습 알고리즘으로 분류하여 실험하였다. 실험을 통해 본 방법의 유효성을 확인하였다.

The movements of oral surrounding muscles, lips, and tongue play a very important role while masticating, swallowing, and speaking. In case of the edentulous patient wearing dentures as well, every movement of the tongue can be seen almost the same as that of the dentulous jaw. The crushed food during mastication is swallowed and sent to pharynx. At this course, the contact of the posterior portion of tongue with dentures affects the stabilization of denture. The retention and stability of the complete dentures are related with buccinator muscles of buccal parts, lips in front, and tongue of the lingual sides. Strack(1946) insisted that the arrangement of artificial teeth in the same place as that of the natural dentition is the best way to maintain the stability of denture. In this report, I would like to introduce the several advantages of a new impression method taken simultaneously, and its procedures and clinical cases.

Acromegaloid Facial Appearance syndrome is a very rare syndrome combining acromegaloid-like facial appearance, thickened lips and oral mucosa and acral enlargement. Progressive facial dysmorphism is characterized by a coarse facies, a long bulbous nose, high-arched eyebrows, and thickening of the lips, oral mucosa leading to exaggerated rugae and frenula, furrowed tongue and narrow palpebral fissures. We report a case of acromegaloid facial appearance syndrome in a 19-year-old male patient who presented with all the characteristic features of the syndrome along with previously unreported anomalies like dystrophic nails, postaxial polydactyly and incisal notching of teeth.

An electromyographic analysis of the buccinator muscle was undertaken, by use of surface electrode. Electromyograms were made from 30 subjects with normal dentition during various oral activity, The results were as follows; 1. No buccinator activity was elicited during slowly opening and closing the mouth. 2. The majority of subjects showed buccinator activity while biting hard, protracting the mandible, and retracting the mandible. 3. The buccinator muscle was found to be markedly and consistently active during swallowing, blowing, sucking and masticating. 4. The buccinator activity during pulling the lips against the teeth was of equal potential with pulling the lips laterally. 5. The buccinator muscle on the working side was more active than the buccinator muscle on the balancing side.

The authors had treated 68 case of cleft lip and cleft palate patients including 44 male patients and 24 female patients. There ware 55 cases of unilateral cleft lip patients and 13 cases of bilateral cleft lip patients, and 37 cases with together cleft lips and cleft palates among 68 cases were observed. We had accomplished that 'Plastic Cheiloplasty', surgical closures of cleft lips and cleft palates had been performed by using of Millard's, Hagedorn's, LeMesurier's and Veau's methods with Z-plasty.

The authors had treated 27 cleft lip and cleft palate patients including 16 male patients and 11 female patients. There were 17 cases of unilateral cleft lip patients, 4 cases of bilateral cleft lip patients, and 6 cases with cleft lip and cleft palate patients. We had accomplished that the surgical plastic closures of cleft lips and cleft palates had been performed by using of Millard's, Hagedorn's, Meyer's, LeMesurier's, Wunderer's, Lindemann's methods and Veau's Method with Z-plasty.
