Abstract:
Abstract Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) provides important information about structural and biochemical changes in organs. MRI is also an effective imaging method for the evaluation of spinal disorders. However, many of its potential applications - particularly diffusion imaging - have not yet been thoroughly explored. The purpose of this study was to determine the MRI-detectable changes in the intervertebral disc after trauma and to test the feasibility of diffusion-weighted MR imaging of the intervertebral discs.

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic inflammatory disease of autoimmune origin affecting approximately 1% of adult population worldwide. The clinical course of RA is highly variable, ranging from self-limiting to severe disease, with considerable individual and socio-economic implications. It is now well acknowledged that early diagnosis and treatment equates to better long-term outcomes. However, despite major therapeutic advances in recent decades, the management of RA remains challenging as a significant proportion of patients presents with active disease despite maximization of therapy.

Abstract Brain disorders such as epilepsy, dementia and other mental illnesses induce increasing costs on health care systems with aging populations. The most effective treatment of these disorders would be either prevention or intervention of the disorder before irreversible damage develops. However, despite the increased interest in different brain diseases, many of them are still detected too late. One reason for this is the lack of appropriate functional imaging modality that can critically sample the targeted physiological phenomenon. Furthermore, it has been shown that one imaging modali

Automatical charging is an important function for a cleaning robot. Currently, cleaning robots on the market use the approaches of maze algorithms or wireless communication technology to achieve indoor positioning and looking position of power adaptor. In the first step, they use the way of RFID, Wi-Fi, ZigBee, or other forms of wireless to guide their cleaning robots finding the position of power adaptor, and then use an infrared techn

Abstract:
碩士<br>國立清華大學<br>電機工程學系<br>100<br>A fundamental issue for modern service robots is human–robot interaction. In order to perform such a task, these robots need to detect and track people in the surroundings. Especially, to track targets robustly is a indispensable capability of autonomous mobile robots. Thus , a robust human detection and tracking system is an important research area in robotics. In this thesis, we present a system which is able to detect and track people efficiently by integrating laser measurements and monocular camera images information on mobile platform. A laser-based leg
