Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Computer Simulation Model for Automated Quantification of Luteinizing Hormone SecretionAyman Al-Nsour, Hamza A. Ali, Buthynna Al-Dulaimi, Wisam H. Al-SewadiProblem statement: An automated software package is developed for quantifying Luteinizing Hormone (LH) release from pituitary gonadotropes in response to short pulses of Gonadotropin-Releasing Hormone (GnRH). Approach: These computer programs were designed to accommodate the release mechanism that consists of three stages, namely; (1) Production of different concentrations of effectors (such as receptor-hormone binds, G protein interactions, inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate IP3), … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 5, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2009 · 6,938 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHarmonics Phase Shifter for a Three-Phase System with Voltage Control by Integral-Cycle Triggering Mode of ThyristorsI. Badran, A.L. Mahmood, M.T. LazimIn integral-cycle triggering mode of voltage control, subharmonic as well as higher order harmonic components are generated in the load voltage waveforms of a three-phase system. These harmonic components are found to be unbalanced in phase displacement. The correction of the unbalanced phase displacement angles of a particular subharmonic or higher order harmonic for this type of triggering is investigated … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 11 · 30 Nov 2008 · 7,110 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Hidden Layer Neurons on the Classification of Optical Character Recognition Typed Arabic NumeralsNidal F. Shilbayeh, Mahmoud Z. IskandaraniProblem statement: The effect of varying the number of nodes in the hidden layer and number of iterations are important factors in the recognition rate. In this paper, a novel and effective criterion based on Cross Pruning (CP) algorithm is proposed to optimize number of hidden neurons and number of iterations in Multi Layer Perceptron (MLP) neural based recognition system. … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 4, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2008 · 7,556 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOut of Focus Blur Estimation Using Genetic AlgorithmMohsen E. MoghaddamIn this study, we have presented a method to estimate out of focus blur that works in noisy images precisely. The presented method has been designed based on two rough estimates of blur function parameters and then the real parameter has been calculated using a genetic algorithm. The structure of out of focus function was analyzed in frequency domain to … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2008 · 6,918 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFabrication and Testing of a Medical Surgical Instrument Capable of Detecting Simulated Embedded LumpsJavad Dargahi, Siamak Najarian, Reza Ramezanifard, Farhad Tabatabai GhomsheA novel endoscopic grasper is being fabricated and tested. This grasper can be used in detecting lumps or tumors in biological tissues. The detailed fabrication process of the tactile sensor has been discussed. Custom-made sensors were integrated with the jaws of the endoscopic grasper and objects with known tactile features were tested by the designed grasper. Different experiments were performed … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2007 · 6,999 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDevelopment of Cell-Responsive Nanophase Hydroxyapatite for Tissue EngineeringR. Murugan, S. RamakrishnaScaffold plays a critical role in engineering bone tissues by providing necessary structural support for the cells to accommodate and guiding their growth in the three dimensional (3D) space. Therefore, designing scaffold that mimic composition and structural aspects of the bone is of great importance to promote cell adhesion, cell-matrix interactions, osteointegration, tissue formation and continued function. Nanophase hydroxyapatite (HA) … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2007 · 7,163 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMFTPM: Maximum Frequent Traversal Pattern Mining with Bidirectional ConstraintsJiadong Ren, Xiaojian Zhang, Huili PengAn important application of sequential mining technique is maximal frequent traversal pattern mining, since users' traversal pattern and motivation are latent in session sequence at some time segment. In this paper, a Frequent Traversal Pattern Tree structure with dwell time (FTP-Tree) is designed to store, compress the session database, and simplify the configuration of dwell time thresholds during mining. A … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 2, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2006 · 6,530 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA New Compressing Ultrasonic Data Algorithm Based on WaveletsMounir Hergli, Jamel Baili, Faouzi Bouslama, Kamel BesbesIn this paper, we propose a novel and effective algorithm for compressing large volumes of data recorded in underwater applications, using a laboratory designed experimental setup. This data represents samples of ultrasonic signals acquired at different geometric positions of a water tank. The proposed algorithm was based on Wavelets and consists of two processing phases including a prefiltering stage using … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2005 · 7,000 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractModeling Traffic Flow and Management at Un-signalized, Signalized and Roundabout Road IntersectionsR. Kakooza, L.S. Luboobi, J.Y.T. MugishaTraffic congestion continues to hinder economic and social development and also has a negative impact on the environment. A simple mathematical model is used to analyze the different types of road intersections in terms of their Performance in relation to managing traffic congestion and to establish the condition for stability of the road intersections after sufficiently longer periods of time … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2005 · 6,611 accessesView PDFCite
