Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractContent Based Medical Image Retrieval using Binary Association RulesAkila, Uma MaheswariIn this study, we propose a content-based medical image retrieval framework based on binary association rules to augment the results of medical image diagnosis, for supporting clinical decision making. Specifically, this work is employed on scanned Magnetic Resonance brain Images (MRI) and the proposed Content Based Image Retrieval (CBIR) process is for enhancing relevancy rate of retrieved images. The pertinent … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 9, Issue 6 · 30 May 2013 · 6,551 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGreenhouse Gas Mitigation Strategies for Container Shipping IndustryLin Shimin, Wong Yiik DiewWith the onset of the first ever Greenhouse Gas (GHG) regulation for ships by the International Maritime Organisation (IMO) in 2011, the container shipping industry requires the combined use of technical and operational emissions reduction measures to improve the environmental performance of its vessels. Studies show that most existing measures are cost effective with a range of emissions reduction potential. … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 14 Feb 2013 · 8,006 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Study of Seasonal Physicochemical Parameters in River UsmaA. I. Ugwu, R. J. WakawaGrowing populations may put stresses on natural waters by impairing both the quality of the water and the hydrological budget. Abuja, being relatively a new city and the new Federal Capital Territory of Nigeria, has scarce physicochemical data on its water resources that could assist in making robust decision in mitigating the impact of human societies on natural waters; which … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 5 · 20 Sep 2012 · 9,279 accessesView PDFCite
