Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIntroducing Radio-Opaque Radio-Lucent Graduated Root Canal Length Indicating Cones (GRCLIC) in EndodonticsMohammad Rashid Shahidi BonjarRadio Opaque-Radiolucent Graduated Root-Canal Length Indicating Cone (GRCLIC) is a new innovative device being introduced for the first time in endodontics literature. GRCLIC can present more accurate measurement of the root canal length in conventional radiographs in endodontic and root canal treatment. Like many other dental and medical specialties, endodontics has evolved and changed over the years. The changes that … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2007 · 7,098 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Adjustable Sample Size Estimation Model for Usability AssessmentHaidar S. Jabbar, T.V. Gopal, Sattar J. AboudUsability assessment plays a fundamental role in discovering usability problems and the determination of the level of usability for a given software product. One crucial aspect in every usability assessment is the estimation of the sample size desired for a software product. Once we start estimating the sample size needed for a usability assessment, a baffling question comes in mind: … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2007 · 6,967 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHigh-precision Detection of Facial Landmarks to Estimate Head Motions Based on Vision ModelsXiaohong W. Gao, Sergey Anishenko, Dmitry Shaposhnikov et al.A new approach of determination of head movement is presented from the pictures recorded via digital cameras monitoring the scanning processing of PET. Two human vision models of CIECAMs and BMV are applied to segment the face region via skin colour and to detect local facial landmarks respectively. The developed algorithms are evaluated on the pictures (n=12) monitoring a subject’s … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 3, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2007 · 6,820 accessesView PDFCite
