Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIdentification of Erosion Hotspot Area using GIS and MCE Technique for Koga Watershed in the Upper Blue Nile Basin, EthiopiaTewodros T. Assefa, Manoj K. Jha, Seifu A Tilahun et al.Soil erosion is a serious threat in Ethiopian highlands. Continuous land degradation resulted in loss of fertile top soil leading to low agricultural productivity. In addition, excessive soil erosion from Koga Watershed in upper catchment to an artificial reservoir (Koga Dam reservoir) is substantially reducing its service life. Community participatory based effective watershed management strategies may have tremendous potential to … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 10 Sep 2015 · 9,149 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNew Computer Aided Detection Method for the Effective Detection of Breast CancerBalasubramaniam Senthilkumar, Govindaswamy UmamaheswariAnalyzing mammogram images is the most challenging task for radiologists in detecting breast cancer. Computer Aided Detection (CAD) plays major role in detecting such disease. Preprocessing, segmentation and detection are the processes involved in CAD. In this study, we have designed a CAD by improving the processes for the effective detection for breast cancer. Selective median filter has been used … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 4 · 13 Mar 2013 · 7,177 accessesView PDFCite
