  • Recently, digital crime is becoming more intelligent, and efficient digital forensic techniques are required to collect evidence for this. In the case of important files related to crime, a specific person may intentionally delete the file. In such a situation, data recovery is a very important procedure that can prove criminal charges. Although there are various methods to recover deleted files, we focuses on the recovery technique using HxD editor. When recovering a deleted file using the HxD editor, check the file structure and access the file data area through calculation. However, there is a possibility that errors such as arithmetic errors may occur when a file approach through calculation is used. Therefore, in this paper, we propose an algorithm that automatically calculates the header and footer of a file after checking the file signature in the root directory for efficient file recovery. If the algorithm proposed in this paper is used, it is expected that the error rate of arithmetic errors in the file recovery process can be reduced.

  • Patients undergoing treatment for breast cancer who undergo an axillary dissection and require adjuvant therapies such as radiation and chemotherapy are at high risk of developing lymphedema of the associated extremity. Historically, patients with lymphedema were treated with ablative procedures aimed simply to remove excess fluid and adiposity; however, the field of lymphatic surgery employing super-microsurgery techniques has witnessed tremendous advances in a relatively short period of time. Advancements in surgical instruments, microscope magnification and optics, imaging technology, and surgeon experience have ushered in a new era of hope to treat patients suffering from breast cancer-related lymphedema (BCRL). Here we aim to present the available options for patients suffering from BCRL, and the pinnacle in reconstruction and restoration for these patients.

  • Despite the lack of evidence-based standard guidelines to select the best surgical treatment option for end-stage ankle osteoarthritis, the rate of total ankle arthroplasty (TAA) is increasing rapidly relative to ankle arthrodesis (AA) with the development of implant designs and surgical techniques. Physicians and patients would benefit from a more comprehensive understanding of the differences in postoperative pain relief, functional improvement, the rates of complication or reoperation, and restoration of gait ability and sports activity. This paper overviews the current consensus on indications and contraindications for TAA and provides a literature review on a comparison of the clinical and functional results between TAA and AA.

  • The purpose of this research was to investigate water spaces such as marshes and watercourses, especially focusing on methods to establish eco-ponds. Many aqua-ecosystems have been filled up or destroyed in the process of rapid industrialization and urbanization in the cities. This inquiry was done by comparing, studying and analyzing existing ponds and studying documents on the introduction and methods of making eco-ponds. Existing ponds were put into three categories as the either eco-pond, man-made/natural ponds, or man-made ponds. Three instances were selected for each category, totaling nine. Data on the size and shape, depth, waterproofing techniques, water supply, plants and planting plan, and the maintenance of the ponds was collected and compared. The following are conclusions based on comparing, studying and analyzing these existing ponds, and studying documents on the introduction and methods of making eco-ponds. ${\cdot}$ It is noteworthy that different environments and depths must be provided because these are main variants contributing to attracting plants in the ponds. ${\cdot}$ In these places plants emerged, such as, floating-leaved plants, free-floating planktonic plants, submerged plant etc, in the different water level zones, once these various conditions were provided. ${\cdot}$ Various spaces can be used for shelter, places for relaxation and habitation. ${\cdot}$ After establishing a pond, routine maintenance is necessary for preventing eutrophication. However the minimal possible management should be done to maintain a natural status.

  • The Baekdudaegan Mountain Range is a backbone of the Korean Peninsula which carries special spiritual and sentimental signatures for Koreans as well as significant ecological values for diverse organisms. However, in spite of importance of this region, the forests of Baekdudaegan have been damaged in a variety of human activities by being used as highland vegetable grower, lumber region, grass land, and bare land, and are still undergoing destruction. The existing researches had determined the details of the damage through on-site and recent observations. Such methods cannot provide quantitative and integrated analysis therefore could not be utilized as objective data for the ecological conservation of Baekdudaegan forests. The goal of this study is to quantitatively analyze the forest damage in the Baekdudaegan preservation region through land cover categorization and change detection techniques by using satellite images, which are 1980s, and 1990s Landsat TM, and 2000s Landsat ETM+. The analysis was executed by detecting land cover changed areas from forest to others and analyzing changed areas' spatial patterns. Through the change detection analysis based on land cover classification, we found out that the deforested areas were approximately three times larger after the 1990s than from the 1980s to the 1990s. These areas were related to various topographical and spatial elements, altitude, slope, the distance form road, and water system, etc. This study has the significance as quantitative and integrated analysis about the Baekdudaegan preservation region since 1980s. These results could actually be utilized as basic data for forest conservation policies and the management of the Baekdudaegan preservation region.

  • Now, a management plan is being prepared to conserve the landscape and eco-system of Hallasan National Park. A major concern of park managers and residents is the visual impact that activities have of the Mt. Hala landscape. One of the most important aspects of making management decisions is assessing the visual impact of proposed actions accurately enough to judge whether or not those actions are acceptable. Park managers and residents need methods they can use to assess the visual impact of various management actions. The impact of proposed management activities was portrayed by CCG Photomontage techniques and viewers rated sets of color photomontages on a 7 point SD scale. The findings were as follows : the CCG Photomontage is quite practical, vegetation restoration is necessary, and the proposed management actions are feasible. The visual simulation technique and assessment method in this research helps residents visualize and respond to management activities, making residents' participation in the planning process more effective.

  • Nowadays, with advanced 3D printing techniques, the custom-made implant can be manufactured for the patient. Especially in skull reconstruction, it is difficult to design the implant due to complicated geometry. In large defect, an autograft is inappropriate to cover the defect due to donor morbidity. We present the process of manufacturing the 3D custom-made implant for skull reconstruction. There was one patient with skull defect repaired using custom-made 3D titanium implant in the plastic and reconstructive surgery department. The patient had defect of the left parieto-temporal area after craniectomy due to traumatic subdural hematoma. Custom-made 3D titanium implants were manufactured by Medyssey Co., Ltd. using 3D CT data, Mimics software and an EBM (Electron Beam Melting) machine. The engineer and surgeon reviewed several different designs and simulated a mock surgery on 3D skull model. During the operation, the custom-made implant was fit to the defect properly without dead space. The operative site healed without any specific complications. In skull reconstruction, autograft has been the treatment of choice. However, it is not always available and depends on the size of defect and donor morbidity. As 3D printing technique has been advanced, it is useful to manufacture custom-made implant for skull reconstruction.

  • In this paper, we propose a method for restoring damaged audio files using deep neural network. It is different from the conventional file carving based restoration. The purpose of our method is to infer lost information which can not be restored by existing techniques such as the file carving. We have devised methods that can automate the tasks which are essential for the restoring but are inappropriate for humans. As a result of this study it has been shown that it is possible to restore the damaged files, which the conventional file carving method could not, by using tasks such as speech or nonspeech decision and speech encoder recognizer using a deep neural network.

  • This study constructed a high-resolution bioclimatic classification map of South Korea which classifies land into homogeneous zones by similar environment properties using advanced statistical techniques compared to existing ecological area classification studies. The climate data provided by WorldClim(1960-1990) were used to generate 27 bioclimatic variables affecting biological habitats, and key environmental variables were derived from Correlation Analysis and Principal Component Analysis. Clustering Analysis was performed using the ISODATA method to construct a 30'(~1km) resolution bioclimatic classification map. South Korea was divided into 21 regions and the results of classification were verified by correlation analysis with the Gross Primary Production(GPP), Actual Vegetation map made by the Ministry of Environment. Each zones' were described and named by its environmental characteristics and major vegetation distribution. This study could provide useful spatial frameworks to support ecosystem research, monitoring and policy decisions.
