Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of visual and auditory feedback combined with theraband exercise in rounded shoulder posture. Methods: There were 43 adults with rounded shoulder posture who had a distance of 2.5 cm or more from the posterolateral of the acromion to the table in the supine position that participated. The participants were randomly divided into four groups: those with visual feedback from the lateral view (visual feedback; VFB, n = 11) provided, those with auditory feedback of praise (auditory feedback; AFB, n = 10) provided, those with visual feedback and auditory feedback (visual auditory feedback; VAFB, n = 11) provided, and those without any feedback (control group; CON, n = 11). Theraband exercise with or without feedback was carried out three times per week for three weeks. To confirm the effect of theraband exercise with visual feedback and auditory feedback on pain, range of motion (ROM), posture, and psychological variables were measured before and after exercise in participants with rounded shoulder posture. Results: The VAFB group showed significant differences in pain, ROM, posture, and psychological variables when compared before and after treatment. However, the differences among the VAFB, VFB, AFB, and CON groups were significant in the ROM of abduction, the New York Posture Rating, and the scapular index. Conclusion: In conclusion, theraband exercise combined with visual feedback from the lateral view and auditory feedback by praise improved rounded shoulder posture. Moreover, auditory feedback was more significant statistically than visual feedback.

This paper concerns a least square method for pattern optimization of a thinned sensor array in which the squared error between a desired pattern and a synthesized one is minimized. A weighting function is applied in the function with respect to the array visual range for a symmetric and asymmetric configuration for sensor spacing. An exponential weighting function is proposed to control the sidelobes efficiently around the mainbeam and to generate a uniform sidelobe. The resulting pattern may be employed to eliminate incoming interferences distributed uniformly around the array visual range.

In this paper, we propose a new view synthesis technique for coding of multi-view color and depth data in arbitrary camera arrangements. We treat each camera position as a 3-D point in world coordinates and build clusters of those vertices. Color and depth data within a cluster are gathered into one camera position using a hierarchical representation based on the concept of layered depth image (LDI). Since one camera can cover only a limited viewing range, we set multiple reference cameras so that multiple LDIs are generated to cover the whole viewing range. Therefore, we can enhance the visual quality of the reconstructed views from multiple LDIs comparing with that from a single LDI. From experimental results, the proposed scheme shows better coding performance under arbitrary camera configurations in terms of PSNR and subjective visual quality.

Objectives : The purpose of this report is to prove the effect of The Daoyin exercise program combined with Korean medicine treatment on supraspinatus tendon tear. Methods : Two patients, diagnosed with Supraspinatus tendon tear by shoulder MRI, were treated with The Daoyin exercise program and Korean medicine treatment. VAS(Visual analog scale), ROM(Range of motion) and Physical examination were used to evaluate patients. Results of application : The Daoyin exercise program combined with Korean medicine treatment reduced shoulder pain and improved shoulder ROM of the two patients significantly. Conclusions : The Daoyin exercise program combined with Korean medicine treatment is proved to be effective treatment for reducing pain and improving shoulder ROM of supraspinatus tendon tear patients.

This study aims to analyze stone's surface roughness measurement accuracy of a high resolution DCS 420 digital camera by digital close-range photogrammetric technique. For this purpose, the surface roughness measurement system was constructed by means of microsoft visual basic 6.0 in windows. As the analysis results of measurement accuracy of digital camera using this system, the roughness error of the normal distance between the best fitting reference surface obtained by least square method and sample points in the ideal plane or surface did not exceed $\pm$0.1 mm

This article will compare the following visual categories: visual angle, distinguishable details, sensitivity, and dynamic range. These categories are often considered within the subject of the maximum deviation from the camera eye, an issue which has generated much controversy. Other characteristics such as depth of field, three-dimensional vision, white balance and color, are not considered in this article.

The surface color of several varieties of apples were expressed quantitatively in xyz chromaticity coordinates. The spectral reflectance of 'Fuji' apples were measured in 400-820 nm range by using a spectrophotometer. Based on the spectrophotometer data and the result of visual sensory test, linear regression models were developed to select wavelengths effective for sorting apples. The models utilized reflectance at single wavelength, and the difference and ratio of the reflectance at two distinct wavelengths. The model which best fitted the visual sensory test data was one utilizing the ratio of the reflectance at 618 nm and 514nm. The correlation coefficient for this model was 0.967. Several other models were also described.

HDR (high dynamic range) tone mapping algorithms are used in image processing that reduces the dynamic range of an image to be displayed on LDR (low dynamic range) devices properly. The retinex is one of the tone mapping algorithms to provide dynamic range compression, color constancy, and color rendition. It has been developed through multi-scale methods and luminance-based methods. Retinex algorithms still have drawbacks such as the emphasized noise and desaturation. In this paper, we propose a multi scale tone mapping algorithm for enhancement of contrast, saturation, and noise of HDR rendered images based on visual brightness functions. In the proposed algorithm, HSV color space has been used for preserving the hue and saturation of images. And the algorithm includes the estimation of minimum and maximum luminance level and a visual gamma function for the variation of viewing conditions. And subjective and objective evaluations show that proposed algorithm is better than existing algorithms. The proposed algorithm is expected to image quality enhancement in some fields that require a improvement of the dynamic range due to the changes in the viewing condition.

Solar power facilities to reduce carbon emissions are continuously being installed in forests, farmland, city, and on water. However, research on visual preferences and the psychological impact on observers after installing solar power facilities is insufficient. Therefore, in this study, shooting was conducted according to the viewing distance of the near, middle, and distant views of Hapcheon Dam, Korea's largest floating photovoltaic power plant. The acquired images were edited using Photoshop to compare the presence or absence of floating photovoltaic power generation facilities. In addition, psychological changes and visual preferences were analyzed through an EEG test and questionnaire among 50 participants. The results are summarized, as follows. First, the installation of water photovoltaic power generation facilities has a passive impact on the subjects' psychological changes and visual preference. Second, the psychological changes due to the installation of water photovoltaic power generation facilities were judged to affect almost all research subjects, regardless of nationality, gender, or universisty major. Third, the visual preference for installing the water photovoltaic power generation facility is low, which can be interpreted as the water photovoltaic power generation facility negatively affecting the "friendliness" and "naturalness" of the landscape. In addition, this change in visual preference was found to differ depending on the gender and universiity major of the subjects. Fourth, the psychological change and visual preference of the floating photovoltaic power generation facility according to the viewing distance, found that the close range had a higher effect than the middle and distant ranges.
