Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSchoenberg Logarithmic Image Similarity in Prewitt-Gabor-Zernike DomainAhmed Jebur Ali, Zahir M. Hussain, Mohammed Sahib Mechee, Zainab Ali KhalafThis paper represents a new approach for face recognition that incorporates Prewitt edge detection, Gabor filter and Zernike moments to transform the image into a unified domain. On this joint domain, five distance metrics are constructed using Schoenberg transform for the purpose of defining efficient similarity measures for holistic face recognition. The proposed Schoenberg similarity applies Schoenberg transform to the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 9 · 28 Sep 2017 · 7,931 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAccess to and Uptake of Contraception by Women with DisabilitiesNatal Ayiga, Stella KigoziContraception has been identified as an imperative for achieving the Sustainable Development Goals. In poor countries, the need for contraception is highest among the most vulnerable population groups. One such group is women with disabilities. The objectives of this study were to examine uptake of and identify the predictors of use of contraception by women in Uganda with disabilities. The … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 4 · 22 Nov 2016 · 8,001 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEDGE PRESERVED IMAGE COMPRESSION USING EXTENDED SHEARLET TRANSFORMS. Thayammal, D. SelvathiThe motivation of the proposed compression method is to reduce the bit rate for image transmission or memory requirement for image storage while maintaining image quality. The edges are one of the prominent features in an image and they are essential for maintaining image quality. JPEG compression standards like JPEG98 and JPEG2000 produce visual artifacts in reconstructed image at low … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 15 Sep 2014 · 7,041 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCharacterization and Geotechnical Properties of Penang Residual Soils with Emphasis on LandslidesFauziah Ahmad, Ahmad Shukri Yahaya, Mohd Ahmadullah FarooqiThe predominantly hilly terrain of Penang Island combined with average maximum daily temperatures ranging between 27-35°C and peak rainfall as high as 647 cm makes the overall area potentially susceptible to landslips. Over the recent past construction industry has shown a rapid growth mainly due to increase in the inflow of international tourists and other economic reasons. Eventually, the magnitude … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2006 · 8,230 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAssociation of Landscape Metrics to Surface Water Biology in the Savannah River BasinMaliha S. Nash, Deborah J. Chaloud, Susan E. FransonSurface water quality for the Savannah River basin was assessed using water biology and landscape metrics. Two multivariate analyses, partial least square and canonical correlation, were used to describe how the structural variation in landscape metrics may affect surface water biology and to define the key landscape variable(s) that contribute the most to variation in surface water quality. The results … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2005 · 6,292 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMarket and Economic Regulation Periodicity: A Feature that Allows Prevention and RegulationLaure JehlenProblem statement: This study addressed the essential questions of non linear financial flows forecasting and prevention regarding the means of periodicity. Approach: We implemented some new computational tools to weigh up the presence of periodicity in 10 years financial price time series. The data consists of NYSE-Euronext listed corporations’ closing prices and East-Asian, North-American and European markets indexes closing prices. … …American Journal of Economics and Business Administration, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 28 Nov 2010 · 7,806 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEfficient Physical Organization of R-Trees Using Node ClusteringF. Sagayaraj Francis, P. ThambiduraiR-Tree is a multidimensional indexing structure that forms basis for all the multidimensional indexing structures based on data partitioning. A number of attempts have been made in the past to improve the performance of R-Tree by manipulating the tree parameters and the data parameters. But hardly any attempt had been made to use external parameters such as disk parameters to … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 3, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2007 · 6,627 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordComposition Dependent Structural and Thermal Properties of SM2O3 Doped Zinc Fluoroborate GlassesSudha D. Kamath, Akshatha Wagh, M.P. AjithkumarGlasses based on Sm3+ doped zinc fluoroborate have been synthesized and characterized. Formation of glass has been investigated in the 30 ZnF2-20 TeO2-(50-x) B2O3-x Sm2O3 matrix. Fast quenching is required to prevent melt crystallization and adequate heat treatment to diminish thermal stress, which results in an efficient amorphous material. The Differential Scanning Calorimeter (DSC), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), Energy Dispersive … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 15 Jul 2014 · 7,244 accessesView PDFCite
