Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSpeaker Identification: A Hybrid Approach Using Neural Networks and Wavelet TransformMuzhir Shaban Al-Ani, Thabit Sultan Mohammed, Karim M. AljeboryIn speaker identification systems, a database is constructed from the speech samples of known speakers. The approach implemented in this paper is hybrid, where the wavelet transform and neural networks are used together to form a system with improved performance. Features are extracted by applying a discrete wavelet transform (DWT), while a neural network (NN) is used for formulating the … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 3, Issue 5 · 31 May 2007 · 7,075 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCASRA+: A Colloquial Arabic Speech Recognition ApplicationRamzi A. Haraty, Omar El ArissThe research proposed here was for an Arabic speech recognition application, concentrating on the Lebanese dialect. The system starts by sampling the speech, which was the process of transforming the sound from analog to digital and then extracts the features by using the Mel-Frequency Cepstral Coefficients (MFCC). The extracted features are then compared with the system's stored model; in this … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 30 Apr 2007 · 7,523 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractToll-Like Receptor (TLR) 2 and TLR4 Gene Expression in Canine HeartA. Linde, F. Blecha, T. MelgarejoToll-like receptors (TLRs) are archetypal pattern recognition receptors of immediate importance for an efficacious innate immune response. TLRs exhibit marked differential tissue activity and their levels within a discrete cell type can be highly dynamic. Of 13 known mammalian paralogues, three TLRs have been identified in the dog. Although cardiac TLR expression has been reported in other species, this study … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2007 · 6,924 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCharacterization and Geotechnical Properties of Penang Residual Soils with Emphasis on LandslidesFauziah Ahmad, Ahmad Shukri Yahaya, Mohd Ahmadullah FarooqiThe predominantly hilly terrain of Penang Island combined with average maximum daily temperatures ranging between 27-35°C and peak rainfall as high as 647 cm makes the overall area potentially susceptible to landslips. Over the recent past construction industry has shown a rapid growth mainly due to increase in the inflow of international tourists and other economic reasons. Eventually, the magnitude … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2006 · 8,236 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMolecular Characterization of Soybean Mosaic Virus NIa Protein and its Processing Event in Bacterial ExpressionBong K. Choi, Jae S. Park, Hye J. Ahn et al.Soybean mosaic virus (SMV)-CN18 is an Rsv resistance-breaking (RB) isolate to overcome soybean resistance genes Rsv1, Rsv3 and Rsv4. The aim of this study was to characterize nuclear inclusion protein a (NIa protein) of RB isolate at the molecular level and demonstrate its processing into genome-linked protein (VPg) and NIa-Pro domains in Esherichia coli containing a bacterial expression pET vector … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2006 · 6,906 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMolecular Characterization of Black Bengal and Jamuna Pari Goat Breeds By RAPD MarkersM.A. Rahman, S.M.M. Rahman, M.A. Jalil et al.This experiment was conducted in the Genetics, Breeding and Reproductive Biotechnology Laboratory under Goat and Sheep Production Research Division, Bangladesh Livestock Research Institute (BLRI), Saver, Dhaka, Bangladesh. DNA was extracted from 14 goat breeds and the extracted DNA was observed by gel electrophoresis. Eight goat specific primers were synthesized by ASM-800 DNA synthesizer and screened in the study and all … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 31 Dec 2006 · 9,588 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA framework to Deal with Missing Data in Data SetsLuai A. Shalabi, Mohannad Najjar, Ahmad A. KayedMost information systems usually have some missing values due to unavailable data. Missing values minimizing the quality of classification rules generated by a data mining system. Missing vales also affecting the quantity of classification rules achieved by the data mining system. Missing values could influence the coverage percentage and number of reducts generated. Missing values lead to the difficulty of … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 2, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2006 · 7,140 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Integrated Approach to Digital Objects Storage and RetrievalKhalil Shihab, Haider Ramadhan, Nida Al-ChalabiImage retrieval systems are becoming increasingly important in areas of research and commercial use. The storage of digital objects in the traditional databases is considered inadequate because of the extensive precise data required for successful retrieval. In addition, the retrieval process has been implemented using content-based image retrieval (CBIR) that relies on retrieving stored images from a collection by comparing … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 2, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2006 · 6,497 accessesView PDFCite
