Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSupport Vector Machine-Based Human Behavior Classification in Crowd through Projection and Star SkeletonizationB. Yogameena, E. Komagal, M. Archana, S. Raju AbhaikumarProblem statement: Detection of individual’s abnormal human behaviors in the crowd has become a critical problem because in the event of terror strikes. This study presented a real-time video surveillance system which classifies normal and abnormal behaviors in crowds. The aim of this research was to provide a system which can aid in monitoring crowded urban environments. Approach: The proposed … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2010 · 7,563 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHomogeneous Bubbles during Jet Impingement QuenchingM. A. Islam, S. F. AhmedProblem statement: Jet impingement quenching has a very effective and large cooling potential and is a very effective means of cooling for many applications. It gives rise to heterogeneous and/or homogeneous nucleation of bubbles, which is yet to be explored. Approach: Analytically investigate the phenomenon that happened during a brief contact of a water jet impinging on a hot surface. … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2010 · 7,171 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractApplication of CART Algorithm in Blood Donors ClassificationT. Santhanam, Shyam SundaramProblem statement: This study used data mining modeling techniques to examine the blood donor classification. The availability of blood in blood banks is a critical and important aspect in a healthcare system. Blood banks (in the developing countries context) are typically based on a healthy person voluntarily donating blood and is used for transfusions or made into medications. The ability … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 5 · 31 May 2010 · 8,628 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractModified Center Interpolation Net for Classification of Composite Structures Tested Using Low Frequency Electronic TappingMahmoud Z. IskandaraniProblem statement: Most exhaustive NDT techniques require large capital equipment, are difficult to apply to complex geometric structures and, above all, are time-consuming to use and some take a considerable time to complete. As a solution to the problems associated with NDT applications, there is a need to establish an intelligent analysis system that supports a portable testing environment, which … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2010 · 7,110 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractReview of Photochemical Smog Pollution in Jakarta Metropolitan, IndonesiaDollaris R. Suhadi, M. Awang, M. N. Hassan et al.An analysis of photochemical smog pollution in Jakarta was attempted using data from the existing air quality monitoring stations. Ground-level ozone potential is high in Jakarta due to the high traffic emissions of ozone precursors and the favorable surface meteorological conditions. Despite the frequent missing data during the 1996-1999 monitoring, which resulted in lower ozone values, ozone episodes were significantly … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2005 · 7,252 accessesView PDFCite
