Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImproved Statistical Speech Segmentation Using Connectionist ApproachM. S. Salam, Dzulkifli Mohamad, S. H. SallehProblem statement: Speech segmentation is an important part for speech recognition, synthesizing and coding. Statistical based approach detects segmentation points via computing spectral distortion of the signal without prior knowledge of the acoustic information proved to be able to give good match, less omission but lot of insertion. These insertion points dropped segmentation accuracy. Approach: This study proposed a fusion … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2009 · 7,680 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvolution of a Graduate Environmental Science ProgramWill Focht, Talya HendersonProblem statement: Environmental science programs vary widely in their curricula and pedagogical approaches. In part, this is due to the lack of a unified agreement on field identity. However, program differences are also the product of variable program histories. Approach: This essay described the founding and subsequent history of the Environmental Science Graduate Program at Oklahoma State University, its oldest … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 30 Apr 2009 · 7,010 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBiocontrol of Botrytis allii Munn the Causal Agent of Neck Rot, the Post Harvest Disease in Onion, by use of a New Iranian Isolate of StreptomycesM. Jorjandi, G.H. Shahidi Bonjar, A. Baghizadeh et al.Problem statement: Soil actinomycetes particularly Streptomyces spp. have showed antagonistic activity against wide range of plant pathogens. In the recent decades they have attracted high interests as biocontrol agents. Onion neck rot or gray mold caused by Botrytis allii have imposed economic post harvest damages to onion bulbs and decreased its storage durability and market value. Approach: To investigate for … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2009 · 9,935 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInduced Resistance in Mycorrhizal Tomato is correlated to Concentration of Jasmonic AcidRupam KapoorThe study shows that Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi (AMF) are capable of imparting disease tolerance in tomato plants pre-infected with Fusarium Oxysporum f. sp. Lycopersici (FOL). Inoculation of tomato seedlings with Glomus Macrocarpum (GM) or Glomus Fasciculatum (GF), 20 days after infection with FOL reduced pathogen spread and disease severity by 75 and 78 %, respectively. The mycorrhizal plants showed increased … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2008 · 14,214 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBack Propagation Neural Network Arabic Characters Classification Module Utilizing Microsoft WordA. A. HamzaProblem statement: Arabic character recognition has been one of the last major languages to receive attention. This may be attributed to the inherent complexity of both printed and handwritten Arabic characters. The objectives of this study were to: (i) summarize the main characteristics of Arabic language writing style. (ii) suggest a neural network recognition circuit. Approach: A Neural network with … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 4, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2008 · 7,831 accessesView PDFCite

Abdulrahman, J.C. Akan, S.T. GarbaAn analysis of intestine, liver, stomach and gill tissue concentrations of heavy metals (Cu, Co, Pb, Cr, Mn, Fe, Ni, Cd and Zn) in three commercially important fish species (Tilapia gallier, Crarias lazera and Osteoglossidae. caught within Alau Dam between the periods of January to August, 2007. These heavy metals were determined using Perkin-Elmer AAnalyst 300 Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy (AAS). … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Aug 2008 · 7,485 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMicrobial Biodiversity Screening for Metal Accumulators from Mineral Ore Rich Site in Andhra Pradesh, IndiaAditya Kumar Sarkar, Susmita Roy, Ananya Pal et al.Problem statement: Since the site selected for screening was a source of magnetite, the objective of this study was to isolate some groups of magnetotactic bacteria and microbes with potential of metal accumulation. Approach: The culture based approach was used for the study. Pure isolates obtained were characterized on the basis of morphology, biochemical tests, physiology as well as at … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2008 · 7,546 accessesView PDFCite
