We present a method for interpreting seismic records with arrivals and waveforms having characteristics which could be generated by extremely inhomogeneous velocity structures, such as non-typical ...oceanic crust, decollement at subduction zones, and seamounts in oceanic regions, by comparing them with synthetic waveforms. Recent extensive refraction and wide-angle reflection surveys in oceanic regions have provided us with a huge number of high-resolution and high-quality seismic records containing characteristic arrivals and waveforms, besides first arrivals and major reflected phases such as PmP. Some characteristic waveforms, with significant later reflected phases or anomalous amplitude decay with offset distance, are difficult to interpret using only a conventional interpretation method such as the traveltime tomographic inversion method. We find the best process for investigating such characteristic phases is to use an interactive interpretation method to compare observed data with synthetic waveforms, and calculate raypaths and traveltimes. This approach enables us to construct a reasonable structural model that includes all of the major characteristics of the observed waveforms. We present results here with some actual observed examples that might be of great help in the interpretation of such problematic phases. Our approach to the analysis of waveform characteristics is endorsed as an innovative method for constructing high-resolution and high-quality crustal structure models, not only in oceanic regions, but also in the continental regions. 본 연구에서는 비정상적인 해양지각이나 섭입대의 데꼴망(decollement), 해저산 등과 같이 매우 불균질한 속도구조에서 발생할 수 있는 특성들을 가진 신호와 파형들이 포함된 탄성파 자료를 합성 탄성파 파형과의 비교를 통해 해석하는 방법을 제시하였다. 최근 대양지역에서의 광역 굴절법 탐사나 광각(wide-angle) 반사법 탐사를 통해 우리는 특징적인 신호와 파형뿐만 아니라 초동과 PmP와 같은 주요 반사파 위상들을 포함하고 있는 많은 양의 고해상, 고품질 탄성파 자료를 얻을 수 있다. 주요 후기 반사파 위상이나 거리에 따른 이상 진폭 감쇠를 포함한 몇몇 특징적인 파형들은 주시토모그래피 역산과 같은 기존의 해석법만 사용하기에는 해석에 어려움이 많다. 그러한 특징적인 위상들을 위한 최선의 해석 방법은 관측자료를 합성 탄성파 파형과 비교하면서 파선의 경로와 주시를 계산하는 것이다. 이 방법을 통해 우리는 관측된 파형들의 주된 특징들을 모두 포함한 적절한 구조 모델을 만들 수 있다. 앞서 말한 문제의 위상들을 해석하는데 있어서 많은 도움이 될 몇몇 실제 관측한 실례들을 포함한 결과들이 제시되었다. 파형 특성 분석에 있어서 우리가 접근한 방법은 대양지역뿐만 아니라 대륙지역에서도 고해상 및 고품질의 지각 구조 모델을 만드는데 있어서 혁신적인 방법임을 확신한다.
Scalar diffraction calculations such as the angular spectrum method (ASM) and Fresnel diffraction, are widely used in the research fields of optics, X-rays, electron beams, and ultrasonics. It is ...possible to accelerate the calculation using fast Fourier transform (FFT); unfortunately, acceleration of the calculation of non-uniform sampled planes is limited due to the property of the FFT that imposes uniform sampling. In addition, it gives rise to wasteful sampling data if we calculate a plane having locally low and high spatial frequencies. In this paper, we developed non-uniform sampled ASM and Fresnel diffraction to improve the problem using the non-uniform FFT.
We report a calculation reduction method for color computer-generated holograms (CGHs) using color space conversion. Color CGHs are generally calculated on RGB space. In this paper, we calculate ...color CGHs in other color spaces: for example, YCbCr color space. In YCbCr color space, a RGB image is converted to the luminance component (Y), blue-difference chroma (Cb) and red-difference chroma (Cr) components. In terms of the human eye, although the negligible difference of the luminance component is well-recognized, the difference of the other components is not. In this method, the luminance component is normal sampled and the chroma components are down-sampled. The down-sampling allows us to accelerate the calculation of the color CGHs. We compute diffraction calculations from the components, and then we convert the diffracted results in YCbCr color space to RGB color space.
Our proposed method of random phase-free holography using virtual convergence light can obtain large reconstructed images exceeding the size of the hologram, without the assistance of random phase. ...The reconstructed images have low-speckle noise in the amplitude and phase-only holograms (kinoforms); however, in low-resolution holograms, we obtain a degraded image quality compared to the original image. We propose an iterative random phase-free method with virtual convergence light to address this problem.
We demonstrate a gigapixel inline digital holographic microscopy using a consumer scanner. The consumer scanner can maximally scan an A4 size image (297mm x 210mm) with 4800 dpi (= 5.29 um), ...theoretically achieving a resolution of 56,144 x 39,698 = 2.22 gigapixels. The system using a consumer scanner has a simple structure, compared with synthetic aperture digital holography using a camera mounted on a two-dimensional moving stage. In this demonstration, we captured an inline hologram with 23,602 x 18,023 pixels (= 0.43 gigapixels). In addition, to accelerate the reconstruction time of the gigapixel hologram and decrease the amount of memory for the reconstruction, we applied the band-limited double-step Fresnel diffraction to the reconstruction.

Concurrent Endometrial Hyperplasia with Carcinoma of the Corpus Uteri. ...Tohoku J. exp. Med., 1985, 145 (1), 15-22-Using 117 uteri which were extirpated in cases of carcinoma of the corpus uteri, a study was made to investigate the relationship between the site of the cancer and the site of associated endometrial hyperplasia. It was found that 75% of the cases had carcinomas of the upper portion of the uterus primarily of the uterine fundus. About 50% of the cancers were associated with adenomatous or atypical hyperplasia, and these two types of hyperplasia were frequently found in the fundus or upper portion of the uterus. In contrast, there was no site of particular prevalence in cases with concurrent cystic hyperplasia. About 70% of the cases had adenomatous or atypical hyperplasia on one or both of the histological blocks adjacent to the cancer.
The concentration of cytoplasmic estrogen receptors (ER) in cancer of the uterine cervix was measured in 30 cases (28 squamous cell carcinomas and 2 adenocarcinomas). The mean ER concentration in ...squamous cell carcinoma was 19.3 +/- 26.0 fmol/mg cytosol protein; for pre- and postmenopausal women 6.82 +/- 9.86 and 28.6 +/- 30.1 fmol/mg protein, respectively, were found, the latter being significantly higher. When 'ER-positive' was defined as concentrations greater than 10 fmol/mg protein, 12 of the 28 cases (43%) were found to be ER-positive. There were no significant differences between the ER concentrations of clinical stage I and II squamous cell carcinomas (19.2 +/- 24.2 and 20.9 +/- 27.2 fmol/mg, respectively). ER were detectable in the cervical tissue from all of the control cases of myoma of the uterus. There were, however, no differences in the ER content between the proliferative and secretory phases, but the concentration in premenopausal women was significantly lower than that in postmenopausal women. In comparison with the controls, the mean ER level in both pre- and postmenopausal women with squamous cell carcinoma was significantly lower, due to the fact that ER were not detectable in 57% of these cases. Both cases of cervical adenocarcinoma were ER-positive.
