To what extent individual’s perception about having back covered, resulting from opinion about family’s or friends’ resources or their moral support, influences his belief about poverty as a chronic or a transient condition? Analyses-Chi2 test on bivariate crossings-have been carried out … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 4 · 8 Jan 2015 · 6,998 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleThe Determination of the Tunnel Structure Loads Through the Analysis of the Interaction between the Void and the Support Using the Convergence-Confinement MethodPierpaolo OresteThe evaluation of the load acting on a tunnel support is of fundamental importance for the correct dimensioning of the structure when analytical calculation methods are used. The load acting on the support depends on various factors and for this reason its evaluation can appear somewhat complex. One way of evaluating the load acting on a support is to use … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 11 · 7 Jan 2015 · 6,808 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleIMPROVING INDEPENDENT COMPONENT ANALYSIS USING SUPPORT VECTOR MACHINES FOR MULTIMODAL IMAGE FUSIOND. Egfin Nirmala, A. Bibin Sam Paul, V. VaidehiThe objective of this study is to combine multiple images of a scene acquired by different sensors to create a new image with all important information from the input images. Recent studies show that bases trained using Independent Component Analysis (ICA) is effective in multisensor fusion and has improved performance over traditional wavelet approaches. In the ICA based fusion, the … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 9, Issue 9 · 6 Aug 2013 · 7,272 accessesView PDFCite
