Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNew Strategy to Optimize Lean Supply Chain Design by Meta-HeuristicThi Hong Dang Nguyen, Thien My DaoThis paper aims at presenting one novel quantitative strategy of optimizing the design of Lean supply chain using Meta-Heuristics. While classifying Lean Manufacturing tools in two categories, namely Functional and Tier Lean tools, we propose a new framework to design the Lean supply chain by implementing the former into a 5-echelon Fat supply chain. As the following step, we investigate … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 9 Mar 2017 · 7,948 accessesView PDF Cite

InvestigationOpen accessIn the abstractA Conceptualization of Distributed Computation for Machine Learning: The Voting AlgorithmTalal Talib JameelThis paper describes a voting algorithm that can be used to find the most optimal solution to clustering problems in machine learning. As part of the family of algorithms known as Condorcet methods, the voting algorithm is used to choose a particular candidate, even in the absence of a definitive majority. The algorithm proceeds in two steps: Renormalization and reconciliation. … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 2 Mar 2017 · 7,890 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Didactic Laboratory of Theory and Design of Structures for Bachelor Civil Engineering Students in CagliariMariangela Deligia, Fabrizio Pittau, Silvia Corda et al.The course of Theory and Design of Structures for the Bachelor courses of Civil Engineering in Academic Year 2016-17 at the University of Cagliari was divided in two semesters: the first one dealing with theoretical aspects, in the second one a didactic laboratory was developed with the aim of a structural design of a building. The assignment and development of … …International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 8 Mar 2018 · 7,659 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAlcohol Intubation and Synergistic Effect of Folic Acid and Egg Yolk Powder Solution on Alcohol Dehydrogenase [ADH] Class I Gene Expression and Single Nucleotide Polymorphism Frequency in Parent and Prenatal Alcohol Exposed Wistar RatsAdejoke Olukayode Obajuluwa, Oluyinka Ajibola Iyiola, Joseph Akintade Morakinyo et al.Point mutation detections in alcohol metabolizing genes could unravel molecular targets of gestational alcohol and epigenetic remodeling capacity of maternal nutrition, which underscores growth and health endpoints in Prenatal Alcohol Exposed (PAE) fetuses. gene expression was assayed using sequenced target and internal control gene primers in a two-step thermal cycling process from isolated RNA in purely bred alcohol male and … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 24, Issue 1 · 22 Nov 2023 · 4,857 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMental Health Patterns of Young Children of Unmarried Parents: A Latent Class AnalysisThuy Dang, Denisse Avila, Eunice LeeDespite a considerable number of accounts on the emotional health and development of young children in single-parent, divorced, cohabiting families, patterns of emotional well-being that exist among young children living with unmarried parents and which patterns most children of this group exhibit have remained unknown. Further, racial differences and families' social economic status have been empirically documented as influential factors … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 19, Issue 1 · 19 Jul 2023 · 6,827 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFACIAL FEATURE EXTRACTION TECHNIQUES FOR FACE RECOGNITIONRahib H. AbiyevFace recognition is one of the biometric techniques used for identification of humans. The design of the face recognition system includes two basic steps. The first step is the extraction of the image's features and the second one is the classification of patterns. Feature extracting is a very important step in face recognition. The recognition rate of the system depends … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 10, Issue 12 · 23 Dec 2014 · 10,328 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNOVEL IMAGE-DEPENDENT QUALITY ASSESSMENT MEASURESZahir M. Hussain, Asaad Noori HashimThe image is a 2D signal whose pixels are highly correlated in a 2D manner. Hence, using pixel by pixel error what we called previously Mean-Square Error, (MSE) is not an efficient way to compare two similar images (e.g., an original image and a compressed version of it). Due to this correlation, image comparison needs a correlative quality measure. It … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 10, Issue 8 · 27 Feb 2014 · 7,434 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDETECTING ABNORMAL BEHAVIOR IN SOCIAL NETWORK WEBSITES BY USING A PROCESS MINING TECHNIQUEMahdi Sahlabadi, Ravie Chandren Muniyandi, Zarina ShukurDetecting abnormal user activity in social network websites could prevent from cyber-crime occurrence. The previous research focused on data mining while this research is based on user behavior process. In this study, the first step is defining a normal user behavioral pattern and the second step is detecting abnormal behavior. These two steps are applied on a case study that … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 10, Issue 3 · 22 Nov 2013 · 7,916 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Non-Linear Absolutely-Stable Explicit Numerical Integration Algorithm for Stiff Initial-Value ProblemsEssam R. El-ZaharThe time-step in integration process has two restrictions. The first one is the time step restriction due to accuracy requirement τac and the second one is the time-step restriction due to stability requirement τst. The most of explicit methods have small stability regions and consequently small τst. It obliges us to solve stiff problems with small step size τst << … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 11 · 11 Sep 2013 · 7,559 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBiotransformation Using Recombinant Cmp Sialic Acid Synthetase and α-2, 6-Sialyltran Sferase: Enzymatic Synthesis of SialosidesUlrike Hubl, Cynthia Sun, Shuguang Zhang et al.In this research, we successfully expressed recombinant CMP-sialic Acid Synthetase (CSS) from Neisseria meningitides and 2,6-Sialyltransferase (SAT) from Photobacterium damsela in E. coli BL21(DE3) fermented at a scale of up to 8 litres using individual plasmids pIRL-1 and pIRL-4b, respectively. After cell lysis with BugBuster, enzyme levels of 2U and 22U per litre were produced for CSS and SAT, respectively. … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 25 Dec 2012 · 8,854 accessesView PDF Cite
