Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDigital High-Pass Filters with Milder High-Pass Effect on Digital ImagesIssa A. Al-ShakhrahImage filtering consists of modifying the original image by logically "reimaging" it with a mathematical imaging device in which spatial response can be controlled by the user. Image filtering is performed by a mathematical operation called convolution, which is simply the successive replacement of each point in the original image by a new value produced by a weighted combination of … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 11 Jun 2015 · 7,956 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUsing Hyper Clustering Algorithms in Mobile Network PlanningLamiaa Fattouh Ibrahim, Hesham A. SalmanProblem statement: As a large amount of data stored in spatial databases, people may like to find groups of data which share similar features. Thus cluster analysis becomes an important area of research in data mining. Applications of clustering analysis have been utilized in many fields, such as when we search to construct a cluster served by base station in … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 10 · 30 Aug 2011 · 7,508 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOptimizing Title and Meta Tags Based on Distribution of Keywords; Lexical and Semantic ApproachesMohammad Farahmand, Abu Bakar M.D. Sultan, Masrah Azrifah Azmi Murad, Fatimah SidiProblem statement: To increase traffic on websites, Search Engine Optimization (SEO) has provided many costly and time-consuming options. One problem is the inadequate distribution of keywords especially those keywords that users use the title tag and Meta tags. Approach: This study described work on an initial model for handling some of the SEO factors to increase the distribution of keywords. … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 9 · 23 Jul 2011 · 7,902 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMinimum and Complete Fluidization Velocity for Sand-Palm Shell Mixtures, Part I: Fluidization Behavior and Characteristic VelocitiesV. S. Chok, A. Gorin, H. B. ChuaProblem statement: Palm shell on its original state cannot be fluidized solely. However, mixing palm shell with a second fluidizable material can facilitate proper fluidization. Approach: The minimum and complete fluidization velocity (Umf and Ucf) for sand/palm shell binary mixtures had been studied in a partitioned reactor known as Compartmented Fluidized Bed Gasifier (CFBG). The pilot scale reactor ID is … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2010 · 7,221 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractResponses of Grain Yield and Nutrient Accumulation to Water and Foliar Fertilizer Management in Upland and Wetland Rice VarietiesNatdanai Juntakad, Sittichai Lordkaew, Sansanee Jamjod, Chanakan Prom-u-thaiThis study evaluated the effects of water and fertilizer managements on grain yield and nutrient accumulation in upland and wetland rice varieties. The two rice varieties representing upland (KH CMU) and wetland (CNT1) ecotypes were grown in different water conditions and fertilizer managements. The interaction between variety and water condition had significantly affected on grain yield and straw dry weight. … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 18, Issue 3 · 28 May 2018 · 8,358 accessesView PDF Cite

This research provided a hot mixture design method modifying with Crump Rubber Scrap Tire (CR) in order to develop and determining the optimum additive for hot mix asphalt design. All tests conducted to the raw material including specific gravity, compact test and … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 2 · 13 Feb 2017 · 7,367 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Stochastic Knapsack Problem with Continuous Random CapacitySuwitchporn Witchakul, Prapaisri Sudas Na Ayudhaya, Peerayuth CharnsethikulProblem Statement: The problem of allocating a set of items in order to maximize the toal linear profit under uncertain capacity referred as a stochastic knapsack problem with continuous random capacity was studied theoretically and computationally. Approach: Two optimization based heuristic algorithms were proposed and developed for solving the problem and both efficiency and effectiveness are compared with the general … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2008 · 6,951 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUsing Regression to Establish Weights for a Set of Composite Equations through a Numerical Analysis Approach: A Case of Admission Criteria to a CollegeRamzi Naim Nasser, Viviane NaimyProblem statement: Mathematically little is known of college admission criteria as in school grade point average, admission test scores or rank in class and weighting of the criteria into a composite equation. Approach: This study presented a method to obtain weights on “composite admission” equation. The method uses an iterative procedure to build a prediction equation for an optimal weighted … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2010 · 7,185 accessesView PDF Cite
