Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMatching LSI for Scalable Information RetrievalRajagopal Palsonkennedy, T. V. GopalLatent Semantic Indexing (LSI) is one of the well-liked techniques in the information retrieval fields. Different from the traditional information retrieval techniques, LSI is not based on the keyword matching simply. It uses statistics and algebraic computations. Based on Singular Value Decomposition (SVD), the higher dimensional matrix is converted to a lower dimensional approximate matrix, of which the noises could … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 12 · 2 Jan 2013 · 6,671 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImmunity to Pneumococcal Vaccine in Splenectomized β-Thalassemia PatientsAbdolreza Sotoodeh Jahromi, Mohammad Reza Farjam, Alireza Makarem et al.Problem statement: Splenectomy is accompanied by a lifelong risk of overwhelming post splenectomy infection, mainly caused by encapsulated bacteria such as Streptococcus pneumoniae. The mortality rate in those infected patients remains high. Therefore the pneumococcal polysaccharide vaccine has been recommended. Approach: To obtain information on the immunity levels of pneumococcal antibody, in splenectomized β-thalassemia patients in south of Iran. Patients … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 25 May 2012 · 7,404 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImprovement of Tone Intelligibility for Average-Voice-Based Thai Speech SynthesisSuphattharachai Chomphan, Chutarat ChompunthProblem statement: Tone intelligibility in speech synthesis is an important attribute that should be taken into account. The tone correctness of the synthetic speech is degraded considerably in the average-voice-based HMM-based Thai speech synthesis. The tying mechanism in the decision tree based context clustering without appropriate criterion causes unexpected tone neutralization. Incorporation of the phrase intonation to the context clustering … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 24 Jan 2012 · 6,973 accessesView PDFCite

Approach: The sample of the study consisted of (117 male principals and 57 female principals). Results: The evaluations of principals regarding tutoring reasons were high, factors related to students came first, followed by … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 18 Jul 2011 · 7,231 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractClassifying Single Trail Electroencephalogram Using Gaussian Smoothened Fast Hartley Transform for Brain Computer Interface during Motor ImageryV. B. Deepa, P. Thangaraj, S. ChitraProblem statement: Brain-Computer Interface (BCI) is a emerging research area which translates the brain signals for any motor related actions into computer understandable signals by capturing the signal, processing the signal and classifying the motor imagery. This area of work finds various applications in neuroprosthetics. Mental activity leads to changes of electrophysiological signals like the Electroencephalogram (EEG) or Electrocorticogram (ECoG). … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 5 · 7 May 2011 · 6,661 accessesView PDFCite
