Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFramework for Managing the Very Large Scale Integration Design ProcessSabah Al-Fedaghi, Eman Al-DwaisanProblem statement: The VLSI design cycle was described in terms of successive states and substages; it starts with system specification and ends with packaging. At the next descriptive level, currently known methodologies (e.g., flowchart based, object-oriented based) lack a global conceptual representation suitable for managing the VLSI design process. Technical details were intermixed with tool-dependent and implementation issues such as … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 13 Dec 2011 · 7,497 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSegmentation Methods of Echocardiography Images for Left Ventricle Boundary DetectionSamaneh Mazaheri, Rahmita Wirza, Puteri Suhaiza Sulaiman et al.Due to acoustic interferences and artifacts which are inherent in echocardiography images, automatic segmentation of anatomical structures in cardiac ultrasound images is a real challenge. This paper surveys state-of-the-art researches on echocardiography data segmentation methods, concentrating on methods techniques developed for clinical data. We present a classification of methodologies for echocardiography image segmentation. By choosing ten recent papers which have … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 11, Issue 9 · 6 Dec 2015 · 7,062 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 · 7,046 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractINDEPENDENT COMPONENT ANALYSIS AND DISCRETE WAVELET TRANSFORM FOR ARTIFACT REMOVAL IN BIOMEDICAL SIGNAL PROCESSINGSalvatore Calcagno, Fabio La Foresta, Mario VersaciRecent works have shown that artifact removal in biomedical signals can be performed by using Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT) or Independent Component Analysis (ICA). It results often very difficult to remove some artifacts because they could be superimposed on the recordings and they could corrupt the signals in the frequency domain. The two conditions could compromise the performance of both … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 27 Nov 2013 · 7,856 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractACCURATE AND FAST PUPIL LOCALIZATION USING CONTRAST STRETCHING, SEED FILLING AND CIRCULAR GEOMETRICAL CONSTRAINTSIman A. Saad, Loay E. George, Ahmad A. TayyarIris segmentation is the most contested issue in the iris recognition system, since noise and poor image quality can significantly affect accuracy of iris localization stage. Therefore, very careful attention has to be paid for the segmentation process if only an accurate result is expected. This study presents a new method for precise pupil detection capable of handling the unconstrained … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 10, Issue 2 · 16 Nov 2013 · 7,247 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAntioxidant Potential in Lipophilic and Hydrophilic Extracts from Medicinal Herbs (Salvia officinalis and Echinacea angustifolia). A Comparison Between Assays Based on Electron Paramagnetic Resonance and SpectrophotometryFlavia Navari-Izzo, Riccardo Izzo, Mike F. Quartacci et al.Recently, detection of antioxidant activity of plant extracts has caught the attention of researchers. Determination of antioxidant activity is usually performed using stable free radicals. A number of assays is available for screening the antioxidant activity of food constituents, but few of these methods are applicable to lipophilic substances. EPR is the analytical technique that directly measures free radicals making … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 6 Nov 2012 · 9,013 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNovel Fuzzy Technique for Cancer Detection in Noisy Breast Ultrasound ImagesN. Alamelumangai, J. DeviShreeProblem statement: Detecting tumor areas in breast Ultrasound (US) images is a challenging task. The occurrence of benign areas in breast may result in false identification of malignant areas which may have serious outcome. Approach: The CAD system could act as a major function in the early detection of breast cancer and could decrease the death rate among women with … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 5 · 12 Mar 2012 · 6,963 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImage Compression using Space Adaptive Lifting SchemeRamu Satyabama, AnnaduraiProblem statement: Digital images play an important role both in daily life applications as well as in areas of research and technology. Due to the increasing traffic caused by multimedia information and digitized form of representation of images; image compression has become a necessity. Approach: Wavelet transform has demonstrated excellent image compression performance. New algorithms based on Lifting style implementation … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 11 · 29 Aug 2011 · 7,147 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIterative Process to Improve Simple Adaptive Subdivision Surfaces Method for Triangular MeshesNoor Asma Husain, Mohd Shafry Mohd Rahim, Abdullah BadeProblem statement: Subdivision surfaces were applied to the entire meshes in order to produce smooth surfaces refinement from coarse mesh. Several schemes had been introduced in this area to provide a set of rules to converge smooth surfaces. However, to compute and render all the vertices are really inconvenient in terms of memory consumption and runtime during the subdivision process. … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 7 · 30 Jun 2011 · 6,929 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComputer Aided Diagnosis System for Stone Detection and Early Detection of Kidney StonesMs. P.R. Tamilselvi, Dr. P. ThangarajProblem statement: Most of the previous study in diagnosis of kidney stone identifies a mere presence or absence of the stones in the kidney. However proposal in our study even present an early detection of kidney stones which helps to change the diet conditions and prevent the formation of stones. Approach: The study presented a scheme for ultrasound kidney image … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 25 Feb 2011 · 8,855 accessesView PDFCite
