Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRe-quantization Codebook Using FingerprintZ. F. Muhsen, M. A. Dababna, A. A. NsourRe-quantization is a key technology for reducing the bit rate of compressed data. The reduction of the bit rate and in certain cases may result in signal quality degradation. Techniques need to be deployed to enhance the signal quality based on optimization techniques. The proposed scheme constructed an optimal re-quantization codebook in an iterative manner for a given original quantization … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 4, Issue 11 · 30 Nov 2008 · 6,905 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Improved Handwritten Tamil Character Recognition System using Octal GraphR. J. Kannan, R. PrabhakarProblem Statement: Handwriting recognition has attracted voluminous research in recent times. The segmentation and recognition of the characters from handwritten scripts incorporates considerable overhead. Almost all the existing handwritten character recognition techniques use neural network approach, which requires lot of preprocessing and hence accomplishing these problems using neural network is a tedious task. Approach: In this study we propose a … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 4, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2008 · 7,405 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractClosed Die Forging Geometrical Parameters Optimization for Al-MMCM. Jolgaf, S.B. Sulaiman, M.K.A Ariffin, A.A. FaiezaDemand for lighter and stiffer products has been increasing in the last few years especially in automobile manufacturing. The closed die forging process of Metal Matrix Material (MMC) is presented as possible solution, since it produces parts with good mechanical properties and lighter weight. A computational modeling of closed die forging process using finite element method and optimization techniques makes … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2008 · 8,477 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Exact Algorithm for the Unbounded Knapsack Problem with Minimizing Maximum Processing TimeChanin Srisuwannapa, Peerayuth CharnsethikulWe address a variant of the unbounded knapsack problem (UKP) into which the processing time of each item is also put and considered, referred as MMPTUKP. The MMPTUKP is a decision problem of allocating amount of n items, such that the maximum processing time of the selected items is minimized and the total profit is gained as at least as … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2007 · 7,595 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFlow of Dividends under a Constant Force of InterestJuma Kasozi, Jostein PaulsenThis study addresses the issue of maximization of dividends of an insurer whose portfolio is exposed to insurance risk. The insurance risk arises from the classical surplus process commonly known as the Cramér-Lundberg model in the insurance literature. To enhance his financial base, the insurer invests in a risk free asset whose price dynamics are governed by a constant force … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2005 · 7,386 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Quality of Homeland Security and Health Care Systems: The Texas Rangers InitiativeEldo E. Frezza, Maurizio Chiriva-InternatiHealthcare facilities are an essential component of an emergency response system in case of nuclear, biological or chemical attack, but at the present time, are poorly prepared for an incident. Key elements of the healthcare facility response plan include prompt recognition of the incident, staff and facility protection, patient decontamination and triage, medical therapy, and coordination with external emergency response … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2005 · 7,216 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Secure Database Encryption SchemeZongkai Yang, Samba Sesay, Jingwen Chen, Du XuThe need to protect database, would be an every growing one especially so in this age of e-commerce. Many conventional database security systems are bugged with holes that can be used by attackers to penetrate the database. No matter what degree of security is put in place, sensitive data in database are still vulnerable to attack. To avoid the risk … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2004 · 7,348 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUsing the Cuckoo Search for Generating New Particles in Particle Swarm Optimization AlgorithmFariaa Abdalmajeed Hameed, Harith Raad Hasan, Ahmed Abdullah Ahmed, Gulala Ali Hama AminThis study is focused on as Cuckoo Search (CS), one of the current meta-heuristic optimization algorithm. The CS algorithm is useful in generating and searching for the most optimum particles of important meta-heuristic optimization algorithm, known as the Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO), to enhance its performance. This optimization is confirmed through a benchmark online optimization and actual problems. The PSO … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 16, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2020 · 7,441 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRemoval of Coliform Content in Sewage Treatment Plant Using a Sand Filtration System with Potassium Permanganate PowderSona Pazdar, Saeid Eslamian, Seyedeh Zahra Hosseini-Teshnizi et al.Reuse of refined sewage with two goals of providing more water and protecting the environment from pollution is one of the solutions to water supply problems and one of the potential sources for irrigation in agriculture. The aim of this study is to evaluate the possibility of effluent disinfection using a sand filtration system to reduce microbial contamination with potassium … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 2 · 27 Jun 2019 · 7,583 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSome Proposed Solutions to Achieve Nuclear FusionRelly Victoria Virgil Petrescu, Aversa Raffaella, Samuel Kozaitis et al.Despite research carried out around the world since the 1950s, no industrial application of fusion to energy production has yet succeeded, apart from nuclear weapons with the H-bomb, since this application does not aims at containing and controlling the reaction produced. There are, however, some other less mediated uses, such as neutron generators. The fusion of light nuclei releases enormous … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 3 · 20 Jul 2017 · 8,836 accessesView PDFCite
