Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractObject Detection using Geometric Invariant MomentMohamed Rizon, Haniza Yazid, Puteh Saad et al.Geometric moment invariant produces a set of feature vectors that are invariant under shifting, scaling and rotation. The technique is widely used to extract the global features for pattern recognition due to its discrimination power and robustness. In this paper, moment invariant is used to identify the object from the captured image using the first invariant (Ø1). The recognition rate … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 6 · 30 Oct 2006 · 6,663 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstract2D Object Description with Discrete SegmentsNbhan D. Salih, David C.L. Ngo, Hakim Mellah2D object shape description has gained considerable attention in field of content-based image retrieval (CBIR) and in various applications that concerned with the shapes of objects. Object shape descriptors in the literature are commonly classified into two forms: contour-based and region-based. In this paper we present our contour-based shape representation and description, where the object shape is represented and describe … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 2, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2006 · 6,540 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAlterations of HDL Subclasses in Different Lipid Levels of Men and WomenYuye Yang, Luchuan Yang, Mingde Fu et al.With the increase of plasma TG level, both in men and women, apoA-I concentrations of preβ1-HDL and HDL3a were significantly higher while HDL2a and HDL2b were significantly lower. Similarly, with the increase of plasma LDL-C level, apoA-Iconcentrations of preβ1-HDL, HDL3c(in men) and HDL3b were significantly higher while apoA-Iconcentrations of HDL2b were significantly lower. And with the decrease of plasma HDL-C, … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2005 · 9,075 accessesView PDFCite
