Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPerformance Comparison of Different Image Sizes for Recognizing Unconstrained Handwritten Tamil Characters using SVMN. Shanthi, K. DuraiswamyThis study describes a system for recognizing offline handwritten Tamil characters using Support Vector Machine (SVM). Data samples are collected from different writers on A4 sized documents. They are scanned using a flat bed scanner at a resolution of 300 dpi and stored as grey scale images. Various preprocessing operations are performed on the digitized image to enhance the quality … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 3, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2007 · 7,008 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGroundwater Nitrate Contamination Risk Assessment: A Comparison of Parametric Systems and Simulation ModellingDario Sacco, Marco Offi, Marina De Maio, Carlo GrignaniGroundwater nitrate contamination is a source of rising concern that has been faced through the introduction of several regulations in different countries. However the methodologies used in the definition of Nitrate Vulnerable Zones are not included in the regulations. The aim of this work was to compare different methodologies, used to asses groundwater nitrate contamination risks, based on parametric systems … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2007 · 7,122 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Spatial-Temporal Variability of Nitrates in a Section of the Cuneo Plain (North West Italy)Massimo Vincenzo Civita, Adriano Fiorucci, Bartolomeo VignaThe study of an aquifer system is very important, but also very complicated because of the high temporal and spatial variabilities of a system and because of the phenomena that are at play within the system. It is from these problems that the necessity arises of finding methods that are able to extend point knowledge to an entire area, while … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2007 · 6,729 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Analysis of Quality of Work Life (QWL) and Career- Related VariablesArafat Al-Dhaqm, LooSee Beh, Jegak Uli, Khairuddin IdrisThe aim of this study was to determine the level and relationship between qualities of work life (QWL) with career-related variables. The sample consists of 475 executives from the electrical and electronics industry in the free trade zones in Malaysia for both the multinational corporations (MNCs) and the small-medium industries (SMIs). The selection of respondents using stratified random sampling technique … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2006 · 9,270 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractQuality Of Work Life: Implications Of Career DimensionsRaduan C. Rose, LooSee Beh, Jegak Uli, Khairuddin IdrisLiterature on QWL is limited and several studies commonly correlates with job satisfaction but no study on QWL has associated with career related factors. This empirical study was done to predict QWL in relation to career-related dimensions. The sample consists of 475 managers from the free trade zones in Malaysia for both the multinational corporations (MNCs) and the small-medium industries … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2006 · 14,024 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Hybrid Fuzzy Neural Networks for the Detection of Tumors in Medical ImagesN. Benamrane, A. Freville, R. NekkacheIn this study, we propose an approach to detect suspect zones or tumors in medical images. The idea is to define with precision the existence of different kinds of lesions using a hybrid system, which combines Fuzzy Neural Networks and Expert System. After applying a method of image segmentation to extract regions (by region growing algorithm or by mathematical morphology … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2005 · 6,873 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRAM 1.0 Software for Gaussian-Plume Multiple Source Air Quality SimulationLiren Yu, Paulo I.F. de AlmeidaThis study presents a developed software in environmental engineering, namely RAM 1.0 (RAM: Regulatory Air Model), adopted completely Graphical User Interface (GUI) technique, for operating in various Windows-based microcomputers. RAM 1.0 software consists of the improved RAM Model and RAM Algorithm as well as developed RAM 1.0 Graphical User Interface, respectively. RAM Model takes into account different ambient characteristics, meteorological … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2005 · 7,458 accessesView PDFCite
