Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStatistical Pattern Recognition for Thresholding between Human Skin and Background in Color ImagesRafael Divino Ferreira Feitosa, Vinícius Araújo Santos, Leandro Luís Galdino de Oliveira et al.Many research works based on the tone of human skin have been developed to locate and track the human body for the purpose of recognition in color images. With respect to other techniques, some advantages of face detection based on skin color are the smaller processing time, invariant angles of rotation and the performance in semi-occluded faces. In this study … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 13, Issue 2 · 10 Apr 2017 · 7,927 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPressure Ulcer Prevention: Optimizing a Temporally Redistributing Support InterfaceJoshua M. Peterson, Colleen P. Healey, G. Jacobus Visser et al.One of the most common complications from long-term wheelchair use or bed rest is pressure ulcers. Pressure ulcers have significant morbidity and are associated with high mortality. Prolonged sitting can cause high pressures in the skin and subcutaneous tissue which can lead to local ischemia and breakdown of skin. Rapid relief of pressure prevents ulcer formation. One prevention strategy is … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 22 Dec 2016 · 7,906 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImproved Dynamic Threshold Method for Skin Colour Detection Using Multi-Colour SpaceMohd Zamri Osman, Mohd Aizaini Maarof, Mohd Foad RohaniThis paper presents a skin colour detection based on an improved dynamic threshold method to reduce false skin detection. Current fixed threshold skin detection fails in certain situations such as misclassification between non skin-like with similar skin-like colour. Any true skin may falsely be detected as non-skin. Research work introduces high-level skin detection strategy based on online sampling where offline … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 2 · 19 Dec 2015 · 7,943 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAlbusite: A Novel Synthetic Gel for Promotion of Skin Wound Healing in RatsShahram Jahanabadi, Mohammad Yasin Karami, Shahram Paydar et al.The current study was performed to evaluate the effect of Albusite gel on the healing process of excisional wounds in diabetic and control rats. Fifty-two Sprague Dawley male rats were used to evaluate the effects of Albusite Gel (synthetic gel) on the healing of full-thickness skin wounds. The control group (n = 2 6) and study group (n = 26) … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 3 · 26 Jun 2015 · 7,043 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractASYNCHRONOUS TIME ENCODER BASED QUASI-STATIC MODELLING FOR HUMAN AREA NETWORK IN VANETR. Vimal Karthick, G. S. Raj, R. Srinivasan et al.Power constraints play a key role in designing Human Area Networks (HANs) for bio authentication vehicle based on driver's identity. To alleviate the power constraints, we advocate a design that uses an asynchronous time encoding mechanisms for representing bio authentication information and the skin surface as the communication channel. Time encoding does not require a clock while allows perfect signal … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 10, Issue 11 · 20 Dec 2014 · 8,067 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOBJECTIONABLE IMAGE DETECTION IN CLOUD COMPUTING PARADIGM-A REVIEWRashed Mustafa, Dingju ZhuObscenity detection from images and videos are now crucial due to social and ethical reasons. It has been two decades the research on this field started. Most of the works are based on skin color detection, which are not suitable for finding obscenity. The reason for this is that, there are many skins like objects such as beach photos, human … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 9, Issue 12 · 25 Nov 2013 · 6,976 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDietary Beta-1,3/1,6-Glucans Reduce Clinical Signs of Canine AtopyA. C. Beynen, D. H.J. Saris, P. M. Paap et al.Problem statement: There was evidence that beta-1,3/1,6-glucans modulate inflammatory activity. In an open, non-controlled trial, purified beta-1,3/1,6-glucans were found to improve the clinical signs of dogs with undefined chronic skin disorders. Given the design of that study, further work was required on the efficacy of beta-1,3/1,6-glucans in the treatment of canine atopy. Approach: The influence of a purified preparation of … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 9 Jan 2012 · 9,984 accessesView PDFCite
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 · 7,143 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPotent Antielastase and Antityrosinase Activities of Astilbe chinensisSeung-Hun Lee, Sandesh Sancheti, Shruti Sancheti, Sung-Yum SeoProblem statement: In the current scenario, photo-aging is a major problem causing skin wrinkling and hyperpigmentation. Therefore, elastase and tyrosinase inhibitors play an important role in the treatment of skin aging and thus, gaining a special attention in cosmetic industries. Approach: In the screening of Korean medicinal plants to search the potent elastase and tyrosinase inhibitors, the extract of the … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2009 · 7,782 accessesView PDFCite
Case ReportOpen accessIn the abstractA Case of Leptospira Ards- “Obsession with COVID-19 Leading to Delayed Diagnosis of Common DiseasePrakash Tendulkar, Divanshee Sharma, Mukesh Bairwa, Ravi KantLeptospirosis is a bacterial infection caused by spirochaete. It’s a gram-negative bacterium. It spreads Through animal urine or soil or water contaminated with Animal urine (Rat), when coming into contact with mouth, nose, eyes or breach in the skin.
