  • Objective: This study was performed to examine differences in the association between straight and curved walking abilities of inpatients in the subacute phase and walking independence level. Design: Cross-sectional study. Methods: Subjects were divided into an independent group and a supervised group (n=10 each) by walking independence level within the ward decided by physical therapists. Inclusion criteria comprised the ability to ambulate independently within the ward, regardless of the use of walking aids. Straight walking abilities (walking velocity, stride length, and cadence) were evaluated using the 5-meter walk test. Curved walking abilities were evaluated using the Figure-of-8 Walk Test (F8W) and the 3-meter zigzag walk test (3ZW). Differences in associations between straight and curved walking abilities of inpatients were examined by calculating correlation coefficients between straight and curved walking abilities. Results: Age, walking velocity, stride length, F8W and 3ZW varied markedly between independent and supervised groups. In the independent group, F8W and 3ZW correlated significantly with walking velocity and cadence (p<0.05). In the supervised group, F8W correlated significantly with walking velocity and stride length (p<0.05), but 3ZW did not correlate significantly with straight walking abilities. Conclusions: The association between straight and curved walking abilities varied between inpatients who could ambulate independently and inpatients requiring supervision for ambulating. These differences may depend on skill on straight and curved walking abilities. There is a possibility that curved walking exercise is necessary for supervised group.

  • The AI speaker is a simple operation that provides users with useful functions such as music playback, online search, and so the AI speaker market is growing at a very fast pace. However, AI speakers always wait for the user's voice, which can cause serious problems such as eavesdropping and personal information exposure if exposed to security threats. Therefore, in order to provide overall improved security of all AI speakers, it is necessary to identify potential security threats and analyze them systematically. In this paper, security threat modeling is performed by selecting four products with high market share. Data Flow Diagram, STRIDE and LINDDUN Threat modeling was used to derive a systematic and objective checklist for vulnerability checks. Finally, we proposed a method to improve the security of AI speaker by comparing the vulnerability analysis results and the vulnerability of each product.

  • Recent technological advances and industry changes, the game industry is maximizing fun by supporting cross-play that can be enjoyed by different platform users in PC, Mobile and Console games. If the boundaries are lost through the cross play, unexpected security threats can occur due to new services, even if existing security is maintained above a certain level. The existing online game security researches are mostly fraud detection that can occur in PC and mobile environment, but it is also necessary to study the security of the console game as cross play becomes possible. Therefore, this paper systematically identifies the security threats that can occur when enjoying cross play against console game users using STRIDE and LINDDUN threat modeling, derives security requirements using the international common evaluation standard.

  • Background: The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of a pelvic compression belt on gait abilities and balance in subacute stroke patients. Methods: Twenty two patients with subacute were recruited and randomly assigned into two group: Two group offered conventional physical therapy and occupational therapy for five day. The group was composed of twelve patients. Participants in the experimental group were given the pelvic compression belt and conventional physical therapy, conventional occupational therapy, although conventional physical therapy and occupational therapy provided in the subjects in the control group. To assess the gait ability, the GAITRITE system was used and the Balance system SD was used to test balance. All measurements were performed before and after intervention. Results: The experimental group shows a significant improvement the cadence, velocity, step length and stride length in gait (p<.05) and show significant increase in the dynamic standing balance (p<.05). However, control group shows a significant improvement the cadence, velocity, step length and stride length in gait (p<.05), but shows no significant differences in dynamic standing balance. Furthermore, there were significant differences gait velocity, dynamic standing balance between two groups (p<.05). Conclusions: The results demonstrated that the elastic pelvic belt application is effective to improve gait velocity, dynamic balance in the subacute stroke patients. Thus, the elastic pelvic belt is seemed to be one of the potential methods to facilitate the active rehabilitation program for hemiplegia patients.

  • Objectives: This study aimed to reveal the gait characteristics of each Sasang constitution by examining the differences in gait analysis indicators using a 3-axis accelerometer. Methods: Ninety-one participants were classified through the TS-QSCD (Two-Step Questionnaire for Sasang Constitution Diagnosis) method and gait analysis was performed using a 3-Axis Accelerometer (G-WALK. BTS Bioengineering, Italy). Gait analysis in returning to the 6-meter turnaround point and 6-minute walking test were performed. The differences in the gait analysis index values were analyzed between each constitution. Results: The gait analysis of 91 subjects (37 Taeumin, 37 Soyangin, and 17 Soeumin), showed that the percent stride length/height in the Soyangin subjects was significantly higher than that of the Taeeumin and Soeuminin subjects in the spatiotemporal walking variables (p<0.05). Stride length also showed the widest tendency in the Soyangin subjects (p=0.05). In the kinesiological analysis, the range of pelvic obliquity angles in the Soeumin subjects was significantly wider than that of the Taeumin and Soyangin subjects (p<0.05). In the six-minute walking test, the Soyangin subjects walked the farthest at 309.41±35.23 m (p=0.064). Conclusions: In a comparison of the gait characteristics for each Sasang constitution using a three-dimensional accelerometer, the stride width of the Soyangin subjects was the widest compared to the Taeeumin, and Soeumin subjects, and Soyangin's walking speed showed a faster tendency than that of the Taeeumin and Soeumin subjects.

  • There has been global efforts to prevent the further spread of the COVID-19 and get society back to normal. 'Contact tracing' is a crucial way to detect the infected person. However the contact tracing makes another concern about the privacy violation of the personal data of infected people, released by governments. Therefore Google and Apple are announcing a joint effort to enable the use of Bluetooth technology to help governments and health agencies reduce the spread of the virus, with user privacy and security central to the design. However, in order to provide the improved tracing application, it is necessary to identify potential security threats and investigate vulnerabilities for systematically. In this paper, we provide security analysis of Privacy-Preserving COVID-19 Contact Tracing App with STRIDE and LINDDUN threat models. Based on the analysis, we propose to adopt a verifiable computation scheme, Zero-knowledge Succinctness Non-interactive Arguments of Knowledges (zkSNARKs) and Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) to ensure both data integrity and privacy protection in a more practical way.

  • Due to the rapid spread of the COVID-19 virus in December 2019, the working environment was rapidly converted to telecommuting. However, since the defense industry is an organization that handles technology related to the military, the network separation policy is applied, so there are many restrictions on the application of telecommuting. Telecommuting is a global change and an urgent task considering the rapidly changing environment in the future. Currently, in order for defense companies to implement telecommuting, VPN, VDI, and network interlocking systems must be applied as essential elements. Eventually, some contact points will inevitably occur, which will increase security vulnerabilities, and strong security management is important. Therefore, in this paper, attack types are selected and threats are analyzed based on the attack tactics of the MITER ATT&CK Framework, which is periodically announced by MITER in the US to systematically detect and respond to cyber attacks. Then, by applying STRIDE threat modeling, security threats are classified and specific security requirements are presented.

  • The purpose of this study was to analyze the kinematic characteristics of the finalists in the women's 100 m event to provide important information to coaches and athletes. Three different biomechanics techniques were applied for analyzing sprinter motion: LAVEG, a panning technique, and 12 video cameras for 3 dimensional analysis of the 40 m - 70 m portion of the race. Carmelita Jeter(USA) performed the maximum speed of 10.54 m/s at the distance of 58.2 m. There was a tendency to show a better performance time with a high number of steps (p=.13) and shorter stride length (p=.14) among the 8 sprints. Furthermore, the stride frequency and the performance time were negatively correlated as a higher stride frequency had a positive impact on the performance time (p=.02). Based on 3 dimensional analysis, the 4 top ranked sprinters used the different strategies to maintain a high COM (Center of Mass) velocity during the mid portion of the race (40 m - 70 m). Carmelita Jeter(USA) showed more flexed knee and hip motion at heel contact (HC) to maintain a high COM velocity while S.A. Fraser-Pryce (JAM) showed more extended knee and hip motion at HC. On the other hands, Veronica Campbell-Brown (JAM) and Kelly-Ann Baptiste (TRI) showed a tendency to have high knee lifts during the swing phase to maintain the high COM velocity during the race. These biomechanical analyses of the women's 100 m final event in the 2011 WC, Daegu, will provide important scientific information to coaches and athletes for understanding the sprinting mechanism of today's top-class sprinters.
