Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIncreasing the Reliability of Fuzzy Inference System-Based Skin DetectorAlaa Y. Taqa, Hamid A. JalabProblem statement: Skin detection is a common primitive for many human-related image processing applications, such as video surveillance, naked image filters and face detection. Skin color is considered as a useful and discriminating spatial feature for many applications, but it is not robust enough to deal with complex image environments. Skin tones range from dark (some Africans) to light white … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2010 · 7,138 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInvariant Image Watermarking Using Accurate Zernike MomentsIsmail A. Ismail, Mohamed A. Shouman, Khalid M. Hosny, Hayam M. Abdel SalamProblem statement: Digital image watermarking is the most popular method for image authentication, copyright protection and content description. Zernike moments are the most widely used moments in image processing and pattern recognition. The magnitudes of Zernike moments are rotation invariant so they can be used just as a watermark signal or be further modified to carry embedded data. The computed … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 31 Jul 2010 · 8,009 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRobust Template Matching Using Orthogonal Legendre Moment InvariantsKhalid M. HosnyProblem statement: Template matching is a famous methodology that has a wide range of applications in image and signal processing. For a template and input image, template matching methodology finds the partial input image that is most closely matches the template image in terms of specific criterion such as the Euclidean distance or cross-correlation. Approach: In this study, a fast … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 10 · 30 Jul 2010 · 7,617 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLinear Genetic Programming for Prediction of Nickel Recovery from Spent Nickel CatalystMona E. Ossman, Walaa Sheta, Y. EltaweelProblem statement: In this study Linear Genetic Programming (LGP) and statistical regression are used in predicting Current Efficiency (CE) of Electro deposition cell used for recovery of nickel from spent nickel catalyst. Approach: The Nickel electro deposition from spent catalyst leachate solutions was studied to determine the effect of the operative conditions such as nickel concentration, temperature, current density and … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 8,345 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSoft Computing in Optimizing Assembly Lines BalancingMuhammad Zaini Matondang, Muhammad Ikhwan JambakAs part of manufacturing systems, the assembly line has become one of the most valuable researches to accomplish the real world problems related to them. Many efforts have been made to seek the best techniques in optimizing assembly lines. Problem statement: Since it was published by Salveson in 1955, some methods and techniques have been developed based on mathematical modeling. … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2010 · 7,469 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEnergy Efficient Hidden Markov Model Based Target Tracking Mechanism in Wireless Sensor NetworksB. Amutha, M. PonnavaikkoProblem statement: Target tracking is a challenging application in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) because it is computation-intensive and requires real-time location processing. This study proposes a practical target tracking system based on the Hidden Markov Model in a distributed signal processing framework. In this framework, wireless sensor nodes perform target detection and tracking, whereas target localization requires the collaborative signal … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 5, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2009 · 7,174 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Novel Morphological Method for Detection and Recognition of Vehicle License PlatesS.H. Mohades Kasaei, S.M. Mohades Kasaei, S. A. MonadjemiProblem statement: License plate detection and recognition is an image-processing technique used to identify a vehicle by its license plate. This notable technology has got multiple applications in various traffic and security cases. To name but a few, toll roads, border control, security and car tracking are same of its applications. The main stage is the isolation of the license … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2009 · 7,653 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSeparable Watermarking Technique Using the Biological Color ModelDavid Nino, Moussa Abdallah, Bassam HammoProblem statement: The issue of having robust and fragile watermarking is still main focus for various researchers worldwide. Performance of a watermarking technique depends on how complex as well as how feasible to implement. These issues are tested using various kinds of attacks including geometry and transformation. Watermarking techniques in color images are more challenging than gray images in terms … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 5, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2009 · 6,611 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHow to Guide and Assess Risk Reduction using Risk Characterization IndicatorsPeter Borgen Sørensen, Rainer Brüggemann, Marianne Thomsen et al.Problem statement: The risk level predictions in risk assessment often suffer from uncertainties and may, thus, overlook some adverse effects. This problem can be reduced by using risk reduction strategies that continuously guide activities toward lowest possible risk. Approach: This study suggested a method to guide and assess such risk reduction strategies using multi-indicator risk characterization. It was a challenge … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2009 · 7,035 accessesView PDFCite
