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 · 6,658 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOptimization of Capacitated Vehicle Routing Problem by Nested Particle Swarm OptimizationKaruppusamy Kanthavel, Paruchuri PrasadProblem statement: Vehicle routing problem determines the optimum route for each vehicle as a sequence of visiting cities. The problem has been defined as NP-hard and exact solution is relatively difficult to achieve for real time large scale models. Though several attempts to solve the problem were made in the literature, new approaches may be tried to solve the problem … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2011 · 7,978 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHigher Education for Sustainable Development: Students' Perspectives on an Innovative Approach to Educational ChangeMatthias Barth, Jana-M. TimmProblem statement: With Higher Education for Sustainable Development (HESD) being an innovative approach to educational change, its principal objective is students’ development of transformation competencies. However, HESD evaluations hardly consider students’ perspectives. This study presents a study that examined undergraduate students’ view on the HESD approach at the Leuphana University of Lüneburg (Germany) and aims at shedding light on their … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 18 Dec 2010 · 11,283 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractConstructing Fuzzy Time Series Model Based on Fuzzy Clustering for a ForecastingAshraf K. Abd Elaal, Hesham A. Hefny, Ashraf H. Abd ElwahabProblem statement: In this study researchers introduced a fuzzy time series model depending on fuzzy clustering to solve the problem in which the membership values are assumed as Song and Chissom model and to increase the performance of fuzzy time series model. Approach: Proposed model employed seven main procedures in time-invariant fuzzy time-series and time-variant fuzzy time series models. In … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2010 · 9,748 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA New Separable Logarithmic Algorithm for Non-Linear OptimizationAbbas Y. Al-Bayati, Hawraz N. JabbarProblem statement: The idea of this study stemmed from the fact that most of the currently used optimization algorithms use a local quadratic representation of the objective function. It also arisen from the fact that the objective function may not be represented adequately by quadratic functions and the global minimizer may be obtained for objective functions. So, in this study, … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 5 · 31 May 2010 · 6,872 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAssessment of Pollution Hazards of Shallow Well Water in Abeokuta and Environs, Southwest, NigeriaE. O. Orebiyi, J. A. Awomeso, O. A. Idowu et al.Problem statement: Pollution of well water, either from point or non-point sources, has become a thing of health concern both in urban and rural areas. Approach: This study aim at assessing the pollution hazards of groundwater resource by sampling some shallow wells from urban and peri-urban area of Abeokuta. Collected samples were analyzed for water quality parameters using standard procedures. … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 28 Feb 2010 · 8,918 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCamel's Milk Protects Against Cadmium Chloride-Induced Hypocromic Microcytic Anemia and Oxidative Stress in Red Blood Cells of White Albino RatsMohammad DallakProblem statement: Cadmium is a heavy metal of wide occupational and environmental contamination. In recent years, however, Cadmium has been implicated in the pathogenesis of several clinical disorders. One of the most frequently described problems in aluminum toxicity is anemia. Therefore, the present study was carried out to determine the effectiveness of Camel's milk in alleviating the toxicity of Aluminum … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2009 · 8,683 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCamel's Milk Protects Against Aluminum Chloride-Induced Normocytic Normocromic Anemia, Lipid Peroxidation and Oxidative Stress in Erythrocytes of White Albino RatsFahaid Al-HashemProblem statement: Aluminum (Al) is an indifferent element from a toxicological point of view. In recent years, however, Al has been implicated in the pathogenesis of several clinical disorders. One of the most frequently described problem in aluminum toxicity is anemia. The present study was carried out to determine the effectiveness of Camel’s milk in alleviating the toxicity of aluminum … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2009 · 8,021 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Improved Genetic Algorithm Based on Adaptive Repair Operator for Solving the Knapsack ProblemSunanda Gupta, M. L. GargProblem statement: Knapsack problem is a typical NP complete problem. During last few decades, Knapsack problem has been studied through different approaches, according to the theoretical development of combinatorial optimization. Approach: In this study, modified evolutionary algorithm was presented for 0/1 knapsack problem. Results: A new objective_func_evaluation operator was proposed which employed adaptive repair function named as repair and elitism … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 5, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2009 · 7,713 accessesView PDFCite
