Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordAn Evaluation of Thermal Imaging Based Respiration Rate Monitoring in ChildrenFarah AL-Khalidi, Reza Saatchi, Heather Elphick, Derek BurkeProblem statement: An important indicator of an individual’s health is respiration rate. It is the average number of times air is inhaled and exhaled per minute. Existing respiration monitoring methods require an instrument to be attached to the patient’s body during the recording. This is a discomfort to the patient and the instrument can be dislodged from its position. Approach: … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Jul 2012 · 10,531 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordEffective Utilization of Multicore Processor for Unified Threat Management FunctionsSudhakar Gummadi, Radhakrishnan ShanmugasundaramProblem statement: Multicore and multithreaded CPUs have become the new approach for increase in the performance of the processor based systems. Numerous applications benefit from use of multiple cores. Unified threat management is one such application that has multiple functions to be implemented at high speeds. Increasing performance of the system by knowing the nature of the functionality and effective … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 29 Oct 2011 · 8,148 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordSpeech Enhancement Algorithm Using Sub band Two Step Decision Directed Approach with Adaptive Weighting factor and Noise Masking ThresholdDeepa Dhanaskodi, Shanmugam ArumugamProblem statement: Speech Enhancement plays an important role in any of the speech processing systems like speech recognition, mobile communication, hearing aid. Approach: In this work, human perceptual auditory masking effect is incorporated into the single channel speech enhancement algorithm. The algorithm is based on a criterion by which the audible noise may be masked rather than being attenuated and … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 6 · 14 Jun 2011 · 7,126 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordGray-Level Co-occurrence Matrix Bone Fracture DetectionHum Yan Chai, Lai Khin Wee, Tan Tian Swee et al.Problem statement: Currently doctors in orthopedic wards inspect the bone x-ray images according to their experience and knowledge in bone fracture analysis. Manual examination of x-rays has multitude drawbacks. The process is time-consuming and subjective. Approach: Since detection of fractures is an important orthopedics and radiologic problem and therefore a Computer Aided Detection(CAD) system should be developed to improve the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2011 · 8,968 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordIntegrity Classification Algorithm of Images obtained from Impact Damaged Composite StructuresMahmoud Z. IskandaraniProblem statement: Many NDT systems used for damage detection in composites are difficult to apply to complex geometric structures, also, they are time-consuming. As a solution to the problems associated with NDT applications, an intelligent analysis system that supports a portable testing environment, which allowed various types of inputs and provided sufficient data regarding level of damage in a tested … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2010 · 6,970 accessesView PDF Cite

IskandaraniProblem statement: From the early days of, researchers have developed electronic models of neurons designed to emulate neural behavior with electrical signals that mimic in some ways the measured potentials of biological neurons. Researchers interested in fabricating artificial neurons have long sought a simple and techniques to produce devices that efficiently store synaptic weights, which is behind holding a particular … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2009 · 7,085 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordVisualization of Available Power Transfer Capability in a Transmission System Using Morphological TechniquesS. U. Prabha, B. S. Dayasagar, C. VenkataseshaiahA morphological decimation technique has been proposed and implemented to analyze the available power transfer capability in a transmission power network. The method creates a graphical image of the power network with thickness of the lines proportional to their respective rated megavolt ampere (MVA) capacity. Based on ac load flow solution, another image was created to represent the power flow … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2009 · 7,102 accessesView PDF Cite
