  • Purpose : This study was to evaluate gait velocity and stance time on 5 conditions in elderly women and elderly women with LBP. The subjects were 70's generation. Methods : The subjects are 20 divided into 2 groups. They measured gait velocity, stance-time. The 5 conditions were normal gait, 10cm obstacle gait, 25cm obstacle gait, dual 10cm obstacle gait, dual 25cm obstacle gait. The experimental period was between 2008/12 and 2009/2. Statistical analysis was used Repeated measurement for difference between conditions, independent t-test for difference in two groups. Subjects were countdown from 50 during dual task gait. Results : The results were as follow: there were significantly difference 10cm obstacle velocity, dual 10cm obstacle velocity in two group. The others were not significantly differences. Velocity and stance-time were significantly difference in control group. In dual 25cm obstacle gait, velocity was difference of normal gait. Stance-time was difference in 25cm obstacle gait, and dual 25cm obstacle gait. In Experimental group, velocity and stance-time were not significantly difference. But measured value of velocity was gradually decreased and stance time was increased. Conclusion : These results indicate that elderly people with LBP women are reduced gait ability in dual task, and obstacle condition. So they need to prevent falling in dual task, and obstacle gait and to train obstacle/dual tak gait.

  • Purpose: The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of dual tasks on balance and postural control during standing in patients with cerebellar ataxia (CA). It was hypothesized that CA patients would exhibit different sway characteristics of the center of mass (COM) depending on the complexity of the secondary cognitive tasks compared with normal control subjects. Methods: A total of 8 patients with CA and age-matched healthy control subjects participated in this study. They were instructed to perform two balance tasks (non-dual and dual movement) with 3 different complexity of dual tasks. Range, variability, and velocity of COMs were measured. Results: According to the results CA patients showed deficits in balance and postural control with increased dual-task complexity during the static balance task in saggital sway movements. However, there was no significant difference in static balance in frontal sway. With higher difficulty in the cognitive task, CA patients took longer to stabilize their body center, while normal control subjects showed no change between conditions. In addition, CA patients had a greater COM resultant velocity during recovery in the dual-task condition compared with the single-task condition. These findings indicate that CA patients had defendable compensatory strategies in performing dual tasks. Conclusion: In conclusion, CA patients appeared to manage the priority to balance and postural control. Particularly in a situation with a postural threat such as when potential consequences of the loss of stability increase, they appeared to prioritize the control of balance and posture over the performance of the secondary task.

  • The construction industry remains serious accidents, injuries, and fatalities due to it's unique, dynamic, and temporary nature. On workplace sites, Safety pre-task planning is one of the efforts to minimize injuries and help construction personnel to identify potential hazards. However, the working conditions are complicated. Many activities, including tasks or job steps, are executing at the same time and place. It may lead to an increase in the risks from simultaneous tasks. This paper contributes to addressing this issue by introducing a safety risk interaction analyzing framework. To accomplish this objective, accident reports of the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) are investigated. The pairs of task incompatibility, which have time-space conflicts and lead to incidents, are found. Ontology technology is applied to build the risk database, in which the information is acquired, structuralized. The proposed system is expected to improve pre-task planning efficiency and relieve the burdens encountered by safety managers. A user scenario is also discussed to demonstrate how the ontology supports pre-task planning in practice.

  • This study investigated to the effects of a mental image drawing in RHD patients with left neglect. Three subjects participated in this study. All subjects were right handed and native speaker of korean. In task 1, the patients were presented with visual stimulus card directly above the response sheet and were asked to draw the picture. In task 2, they were presented with items auditorily and asked to draw the picture(mental image drawing). In all experimental conditions, there was no response time limit. The results showed that the subjects showed left neglect leaving some space on the left side in task 1. And the picture was drawn the left side from the right in direction. However, the neglect disappeared in task 2. And the picture was drawn the right side from the left in direction. The results of the present study suggested that a mental image drawing technique can be effective in treating individuals who exhibit left neglect. Also, the picture direction showed that the korean normality was same.

  • Coreference resolution is a task in discourse analysis that links several headwords used in any document object. We suggest pointer networks-based coreference resolution for Korean using multi-task learning (MTL) with an attention mechanism for a hierarchical structure. As Korean is a head-final language, the head can easily be found. Our model learns the distribution by referring to the same entity position and utilizes a pointer network to conduct coreference resolution depending on the input headword. As the input is a document, the input sequence is very long. Thus, the core idea is to learn the word- and sentence-level distributions in parallel with MTL, while using a shared representation to address the long sequence problem. The suggested technique is used to generate word representations for Korean based on contextual information using pre-trained language models for Korean. In the same experimental conditions, our model performed roughly 1.8% better on CoNLL F1 than previous research without hierarchical structure.

  • 후기 한국어-영어 이중언어화자의 자소-음소 변환규칙(grapheme to phoneme conversion rule, GPC 규칙)에 따른 영어 규칙성 효과(regularity effect)가 단어수준과 하위단어수준에서 나타나는지 알아보기 위해 단어명명과제, 각운판단과제, 음소제거과제를 진행하였다. 전체 단어수준(whole word level)에서의 규칙 양상을 살펴보기 위해, [1] 영어단어명명과제(English word naming task)를 사용하였고, 단어 단위보다 하위 단계에서의 규칙성 효과를 알아보기 위해 [2] 라임판단 과제(rhyme judgement task)와 음소수준(phoneme level)에서의 과제인 [3] 음소탈락과제(phoneme deletion task)를 사용하였다. 실험 참가자들은 세 종류의 과제를 모두 수행하였고, 총 43명의 후기 이중언어화자가 실험에 참가하였다. 실험결과, 세 과제 모두에서 규칙성 효과가 나타나 한국어-영어 이중언어화자가 영어(L2) 단어 처리 시 GPC 규칙을 적극적으로 활용하고 있다는 사실을 확인하였다. 사후분석으로써 세 과제 사이의 상관분석을 진행한 결과, 단어명명과제와 라임판단과제 간 상관이 가장 높게 나타났다. 비록 영어 모국어 화자의 이전 연구결과와는 달리 라임판단과제와 단어읽기과제 간 상관이 높게 나타났지만, 이는 실험 참가자의 L2 능숙도가 모국어화자만큼 높지 않았기 때문인 것으로 보인다. 본 연구는 후기 한국어-영어 이중언어화자가 영어 GPC 규칙을 사용하여 영어단어읽기 처리를 하고 있음을 확인하였다.

  • Understanding how and why people differ is a fundamental, if distant, goal of research efforts to bridge psychological and biological levels of analysis. General fluid intelligence (gF) is a major dimension of individual differences and refers to reasoning and novel problemsolving ability. A conceptual integration of evidence from cognitive (behavioral) and anatomical studies suggeststhat gF should covary with both task performance and neural activity in specific brain systems when specific cognitive demands are present, with the neural activity mediating the relation between gF and performance. Direct investigation of this possibility will be a critical step toward a mechanistic model of human intelligence. In turn, a mechanistic model might suggest ways to enhance gF through targeted behavioral or neurobiological intervent ions, We formed two different groups as subjects based on their scholarly attainments. Each group consists of 20 volunteers(aged 16-17 years, right-handed males) from the National Gifted School and a local high school respectively. To test whether individual differences in general intelligence are mediated at a neural level, we first assessed intellectual characteristics in 40 subjects using standard intelligence tests (Raven's Advanced Progressive Matrices, Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale, Torrance Tests of Creative Thinking) administered outside of the MR scanner. We then used functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRl) to measure task-related brain activity as participants performed three different kinds of computerized reasoning tasks that were intended to activate the relevant neural systems. To examine the difference of neural activity according to discrepancy in general intelligence, we compared the brain activity of both extreme groups (each, n=10) of the participants based on the standard intelligence test scores. In contrast to the common expectation, there was no significant difference of brain region involved in high-g tasks between both groups. Random effect analysis exhibited that lateral prefrontal, anterior cingulate and parietal cortex are associated with gF. Despite very different task contents in the three high-g-low-g contrasts, recruitment of multiple regions is markedly similar in each case, However, on the task with high 9F correlations, the Prodigy group, (intelligence rank: >99%) showed higher task-related neural activity in several brain regions. These results suggest that the relationship between gF and brain activity should be stronger under high-g conditions than low-g conditions.

  • 본 연구에서는 운전자의 피로에 가장 중요하게 영향을 미칠 것으로 여겨지는 수면 부족(수면 박탈)과 운전 과제의 지속 시간이 운전자의 운전 수행에 어떠한 영향을 주는지 운전 시뮬레이션을 이용하여 살펴보았다. 본 연구의 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 첫째, 차량에 대한 종적 통제 측면에서 보면 대부분의 실험 조건들에서 운전자들은 요구된 운전 속도 보다 더 빠르게 운전하는 경향을 보인 반면, 수면이 박탈된 상태로 60분 이상 운전한 조건에서의 운전자들은 다른 조건에 비해 목표 운전 속도에 밑도는 운전 속도로 운전하였을 뿐만 아니라 운전 속도의 변산성도 가장 컸다. 둘째, 차량에 대한 횡적 통제 측정치들에서 보면, 수면 박탈이나 운전 지속 시간에 의해 피로 정도가 증가할 경우 차량의 횡적 통제에 대한 운전자들의 수행은 일반적으로 저조해지는 것으로 보이지만 수면 박탈 조건에서 1시간 이상 운전한 운전자들은 중앙선으로부터 떨어져 운전함으로써 다른 조건에 비해 차선 침범 빈도가 상대적으로 더 적었던 반면 차선 안에서의 좌우 흔들림은 더 컸다. 셋째, 피로 정도에 대한 운전자의 주관적 평정 결과, 운전자들의 주관적 피로도는 정상 수면 조건보다는 수면 박탈에서, 그리고 운전 지속시간이 증가함에 따라 가산적으로 증가하였다. 본 연구 결과는 피로한 운전자들이 운전 수행의 몇몇 측면에서 운전 피로를 보상하여 운전하고자 하는 경향을 보이지만, 전반적으로는 운전 피로에 의해 운전 수행의 질이 저하된다는 것을 시사한다.

  • 스케줄링의 목적은 입력 작업(DAG)에 대한 스케줄 결과 길이를 최소화하는 것이다. 이런 스케줄링 문제는 잘 알려진 '정해진 시간 내에 해결하기 어려운 문제(NP-complete)'이며 최적의 스케줄링 결과 값을 얻기 위해서는 휴리스틱으로 해결해야 한다. 선후 관계의 제약을 갖는 노드들의 스케줄링을 효율적으로 수행하기 위해 부모 노드와 이질 프로세서에 대한 정보를 고려하는 TANH(the Task duplication based scheduling Algorithm for Network of Heterogeneous systems), GDL, BIL, TDS과 같은 많은 알고리즘이 제안되었다. 본 논문은 기존의 TANH 스케줄링에서 나타나는 여러 개의 부모 노드와 이질 프로세서에 대한 다양한 경우를 충분히 고려하지 못한 점을 보안하여 향상된 스케줄링을 수행할 수 있는 DTSC (Duplication based Task Scheduling with Communication Cost in Heterogeneous Systems)알고리즘을 제안하였다. 제안된 알고리즘의 성능은 기존 TANH, GDL 알고리즘과 비교하였으며, 스케줄링의 성능 향상을 보여 주었다.
