Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractK-MEANS BASED IMAGE DENOISING USING BILATERAL FILTERING AND TOTAL VARIATIONDanu Wiroteurairuang, Sanun Srisuk, Chom Kimpan, Thanwa SripramongBilateral filter and Total variation image denoising are widely used in image denoising. In low noisy level, bilateral filtering is better than TV denoising for it reveals better SNR and sharper edges. However, in high noisy level, TV denoising outperforms bilateral filtering in terms of SNR and more details of non edges. It is very difficult to perform denoising of … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 10, Issue 12 · 30 Dec 2014 · 8,175 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMOLECULAR CHARACTERIZATION ON THE BASIS OF HA, NA AND M GENE REVEALED CHANGES IN CRITICAL AMINO ACID POSITIONS OF INFLUENZA A (H3N2) VIRUS CIRCULATING IN INDIA DURING 2011-2013Sachin Kumar, Shashi Khare, Bano Saidullah et al.Influenza a (H1N1) virus is responsible for acute respiratory infection in human, which occasionally causes epidemic and rarely a pandemic. Full length DNA sequencing of HA, NA and M gene of H3N2 virus from year 2011-2013 was performed for determination of the circulating strains in India along with monitoring status of various mutations associated with drug resistance and virulence.
