Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAndroid Based Energy Aware Framework for Porting Legacy ApplicationsNaeem Zafar AzeemiTrend is growing towards using complex multimedia functions on smaller devices. In this study, we explore the effect of migrating legacy signal processing software applications algorithms from large form factor devices to the smaller one such as handheld mobile devices known as Energy Conscious Mobile Computing Systems (EConMCS). We concentrate on Source Code Volatility (SCV), including inherent algorithm complexity and … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 12 · 3 Jan 2015 · 6,288 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA REVIEW ON THE DEVELOPMENT OF INDONESIAN SIGN LANGUAGE RECOGNITION SYSTEMSutarman, Mazlina Abdul Majid, Jasni Mohamad ZainSign language is mainly employed by hearing-impaired people to communicate with each other. However, communication with normal people is a major handicap for them since normal people do not understand their sign language. Sign language recognition is needed for realizing a human oriented interactive system that can perform an interaction like normal communication. Sign language recognition basically uses two approaches: … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 9, Issue 11 · 27 Sep 2013 · 8,691 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractField Programmable Gate Arrays Based Realization of Truncated MultipliersMuhammad H. Rais, Mohammed H. Al MijalliProblem statement: Due to high cost and non reconfiguration of Application Specific Integrated Circuits (ASICs) in image processing applications, for example MPEG video compression used in CT scan frames requires real time conditions and the algorithms should be verified and optimized before implementation. Approach: Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) provides reconfiguration and implementation at the same time. Results: The implementation … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 7 · 24 Jun 2011 · 6,694 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIncreasing the Reliability of Fuzzy Inference System-Based Skin DetectorAlaa Y. Taqa, Hamid A. JalabProblem statement: Skin detection is a common primitive for many human-related image processing applications, such as video surveillance, naked image filters and face detection. Skin color is considered as a useful and discriminating spatial feature for many applications, but it is not robust enough to deal with complex image environments. Skin tones range from dark (some Africans) to light white … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2010 · 7,138 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Novel Fast Computing Method for Framelet CoefficientsHadeel N. Al-TaaiThe relatively new field of framelets shows promise in removing some of the limitations of wavelets. Several applications have benefited from the use of frames, for example, denoising and signal coding. In this research, Fast 1D-2D Framlet Transform algorithm for computing advance transforms are proposed. For a 2D framelet transformation, the algorithm is applied in x-direction first and then in … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 11 · 30 Nov 2008 · 6,675 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIR Laser Plasma Interaction with GlassRabia Qindeel, Noriah Bidin, Yaacob Mat DaudThe interaction of laser plasma with respect to glass surface is reported in this paper. A Q-switched Nd:YAG laser was used as ablation source. Glass material is utilized as target specimen. Aluminum plate is used as a rotating substrate. The dynamic expansion of the plasma was visualized by using CCD video camera and permanently recorded via image processing system. The … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2007 · 6,915 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordAutomated Camera Monitoring System for Selective Areas of InterestNael HirzallahMonitoring a number of security cameras by security guards suffers from a number of difficulties especially when the events to be watched for may take months to occur or a large number of cameras exist. Furthermore, finding and hiring people for such tasks is usually expensive. Therefore, there are immediate needs for automated surveillance systems that save money, work in … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2007 · 7,205 accessesView PDFCite
