Suggestion of a Basis Color and Standardization for Observing a Person's Face Color of Ocular Inspection

ABSTRACT Despite the effectiveness of oriental medical practice in the diagnosis of symptoms and providing cure to it, the preferences in western medicinal values is socially prevalent. The diagnosis of a disease using western medicinal practices provides us with an objective diagnostic result, however, decisions by oriental doctors are based on their heuristic intuitions developed by practice and experience. Objective solutions for the cure of symptoms using oriental medical therapy can have a high impact on the world market. Therefore, development of diagnostic machines based on oriental therapy can enhance the Ocular Inspection which is evaluated as one of the best diagnostic treatment among Oriental Medical Science, is not researched much compared to other diagnoses. Because there is no color diagnosis rules for digital machines to analyze the actual color, looking at the persons face color is one of the most important components to diagnose the disease or illness. The thesis proposes the implementation of absolute observing a persons face color standards of the color settings for objective diagnosis. As a results, comparative digital color analysis for observing a persons face color can be the most effective rule based Color scheme system to diagnose disease. A standard solution for the researching conditions is suggested to reduce the variable which may occur depending on the differences between the researching conditions.Keywords:Ocular inspection, Oriental medicine, Color scheme, Observing a persons face color, Standardization

A Proposal on IT Based Method of Substantiation and Quantization for Pronunciation Accuracy Improvement Methods

One of the most important means in modem NQ (Network Quotient) emphasized society is the communication skill. Therefore, it is mostly necessary to accurately express his or her own idea and maximize own communication competence. For this, efforts on improving pronunciation accuracy, such as pronunciation stretching practice and vocal cords reflex point acupressure therapy, have been devoted for communication competence in daily life. However, objective and positive method to substantiate such efforts has not yet been studied to find if the methods can improve pronunciation accuracy in effect. We, therefore, propose an IT based method of substantiation and quantization for such pronunciation accuracy improvement methods. Voice analysis on voice data sample of 30 males in 20s, before and after pronunciation stretching practice and vocal cords reflex point acupressure, has been performed in this paper.

Application of Vocal Fold Vibration Analysis Parameter for Infant Congenital Heart Diseases Diagnosis

Due to poor linguistic communication skills of sucklings and infants, crying mostly is only means of communication to express their body conditions and desires. We, therefore, developed an infant auscultation system which detects which part of the body has a pathological problem, by analysing infant`s crying sound patterns. Specifically, in this paper, we accomplished an auscultation system for congenital heart diseases detection by performing pitch, intensity and spectrum analysis of the crying sounds between the normal infants group and the congenital heart diseases group. With this system, we can diagnose congenital heart diseases of infants with poor communication capacity, and, in the near future, can build a home care diagnosis system based on crying sound analysis technologies through additional experiments on medical data.
