Space Target Classification Improvement by Generating Micro-Doppler Signatures Considering Incident Angle.

Classifying space targets from debris is critical for radar resource management as well as rapid response during the mid-course phase of space target flight. Due to advances in deep learning techniques, various approaches have been studied to classify space targets by using micro-Doppler signatures. Previous studies have only used micro-Doppler signatures such as spectrogram and cadence velocity diagram (CVD), but in this paper, we propose a method to generate micro-Doppler signatures taking into account the relative incident angle that a radar can obtain during the target tracking process.

Classification of Space Objects by Using Deep Learning with Micro-Doppler Signature Images.

Radar target classification is an important task in the missile defense system. State-of-the-art studies using micro-doppler frequency have been conducted to classify the space object targets. However, existing studies rely highly on feature extraction methods.

A Prosthetic Socket with Active Volume Compensation for Amputated Lower Limb.

Typically, the actual volume of the residual limb changes over time. This causes the prosthesis to not fit, and then pain and skin disease. In this study, a prosthetic socket was developed to compensate for the volume change of the residual limb.

Pharmacological Properties of a Traditional Korean Formula Bojungchiseup-tang on 3T3-L1 Preadipocytes and High-Fat Diet-Induced Obesity Mouse Model.

The global obesity epidemic has nearly doubled since 1980, and this increasing prevalence is threatening public health. It has been reported that natural products could contain potential functional ingredients that may assist in preventing obesity. Bojungchiseub-tang (BJT), mentioned in the as an herbal medication for the treatment of edema, a symptom of obesity, consists of eleven medicinal herbs.

The Antiobesity Effects of Buginawa in 3T3-L1 Preadipocytes and in a Mouse Model of High-Fat Diet-Induced Obesity.

There has been a remarkable interest in finding lipid inhibitors from natural products to replace synthetic compounds, and a variety of oriental medicinal herbs are reported to have biological activity with regard to lipid inhibition. Buginawa (Bugi) is a novel combined formula that contains twelve medicinal herbs with potential for weight loss induction. We hypothesized that Bugi may have antiobesity effects in 3T3-L1 preadipocytes and in a high-fat diet- (HFD-) induced mouse model.

Development of ECG Monitoring System and Implantable Device with Wireless Charging.

We developed an implantable electrocardiogram (ECG) monitoring system and demonstrated its performance through an in vivo test. In the system, the implantable device senses not only the ECG signal of the animal but also the voltage level of the secondary cell and temperature inside the implantable device, and users can check the transmitted information through a PC program or a mobile application. The adoption of wireless charging technology eliminates the use of a lead wire and repetitive surgery to replace the implantable device.

Clinical and radiological evaluation after arthroscopic rotator cuff repair using suture bridge technique.

Background: We retrospectively assessed the clinical outcomes and investigated risk factors influencing retear after arthroscopic suture bridge repair technique for rotator cuff tear through clinical assessment and magnetic resonance arthrography (MRA).

Methods: Between January 2008 and April 2011, sixty-two cases of full-thickness rotator cuff tear were treated with arthroscopic suture bridge repair technique and follow-up MRA were performed. The mean age was 56.

Volar long locking compression plate fixation for distal radius fractures with metaphyseal and diaphyseal extension.

Comminuted distal radial fractures with metaphyseal and diaphyseal extension are uncommon and remain a challenge to treat. The purpose of this study was to assess the radiographic and functional outcomes of treatment with the volar long locking compression plate (LCP) system for distal radius fractures with metaphyseal and diaphyseal extension. This retrospective study was performed on 22 consecutive patients who were treated with open reduction and internal fixation with the application of a 2.
