Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleCo-infestation of Honey Bee Colonies with Tropilaelaps mercedesae and Varroa destructor in the Republic of KazakhstanUlzhan Nuraliyeva, Gaukhar Moldakhmetova, Oleg Krupskiy et al.Beekeeping is a well-developed industry in the Republic of Kazakhstan; however, significant winter colony losses necessitate the annual import of thousands of honey bee package colonies from neighboring southern countries. The recent detection of the invasive mite Tropilaelaps mercedesae in several of these source countries poses a serious biosecurity threat to Kazakhstani apiculture. This study aimed to identify potentially infested … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 21, Issue 1 · 11 Apr 2026 · 1,850 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleAutomated vs. Manual Counting of Bacterial Colonies Using Hough Circle Transform: A Comparative Study for E. coli, S.aureus, and P.aeruginosaAreesha Rehman, Zikria Saleem, Jarrar Amjad et al.Bacterial colony enumeration is an essential stage in microbiological research, allowing susceptibility to antibiotics assessment, monitoring of the environment, and clinical diagnostics. This research compares automated bacterial colony counting using the Hough Circle Transform to traditional manual counting methods. Objectives include evaluating counting accuracy and efficiency. This study adopted the image processing approach to colonies of E. coli, S. aureus, … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 21, Issue 10 · 7 Dec 2025 · 2,387 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleHybrid Ant Colony Optimization and Genetic Algorithm for Rule InductionHayder Naser Khraibet AL-Behadili, Ku Ruhana Ku-Mahamud, Rafid SagbanIn this study, a hybrid rule-based classifier namely, ant colony optimization/genetic algorithm ACO/GA is introduced to improve the classification accuracy of Ant-Miner classifier by using GA. The Ant-Miner classifier is efficient, useful and commonly used for solving rule-based classification problems in data mining. Ant-Miner, which is an ACO variant, suffers from local optimization problem which affects its performance. In our … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 16, Issue 7 · 24 Jul 2020 · 7,899 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEnergy-Efficient Ant Colony-Based k-Hop Clustering and Transmission Range Assignment Protocol for Connectivity Construction in Dense Wireless Sensor NetworksGokou Hervé Fabrice Diédié, Boko Aka, Michel BabriConnectivity construction is the main phase of a communication-oriented topology control process. It consists of improving the current network physical topology while preserving important properties such as connectivity and symmetry. In this paper, we address the problem of combining two of the techniques commonly used for this purpose in networks composed of a large number of energy constrained wireless sensor-nodes … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 14, Issue 3 · 19 Mar 2018 · 7,792 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleAntimicrobial Dressing for Diabetic Foot Ulcer Colonized with MRSAParthasarathy Ravichandran, Sai Prasad ChittiWound healing in patients with diabetic foot ulcer differs among people. The wound healing process was influenced by factors like nature of the wound, tissue and an immunity of a person. Any measure taken to control bacterial colonies in wound plays a significant role in wound healing. However, recent emergence of Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus Aureus (MRSA) associated with chronic wounds created … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 4 · 17 Nov 2015 · 7,560 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleHYPOLITHIC CYANOBACTERIA COLONIZATION OF QUARTZ AT SOUTH DESERTRoda F. Al-ThaniHypolithic microbial communities (found underneath rocks) were encountered in the southern desert of Qatar where quartz rocks are ubiquitous and are a substrate for hypoliths. These hypoliths thrive where extreme temperature, moisture stress and high light intensity limit the occurrence of higher plants and animal life. A small-scale ecological survey indicated that 80% of the quartz rocks in the area … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 11 Feb 2014 · 7,302 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleArtificial Bee Colony Algorithm Integrated with Fuzzy C-mean Operator for Data ClusteringM. Krishnamoorthi, A. M. NatarajanClustering task aims at the unsupervised classification of patterns in different groups. To enhance the quality of results, the emerging swarm-based algorithms now-a-days become an alternative to the conventional clustering methods. In this study, an optimization method based on the swarm intelligence algorithm is proposed for the purpose of clustering. The significance of the proposed algorithm is that it uses … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 6 May 2013 · 6,299 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleSystem Evolving using Ant Colony Optimization AlgorithmNada M.A. AL-SalamiProblem statement: The goal of automatic programming system is to create, in an automated way, a computer program that enables a computer to solve a problem. It is difficult to build an automatic programming system: They require carefully designed specification languages and an intimate knowledge base. Determine the relevance of mathematical system theory to the problems of automatic programming and … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 5, Issue 5 · 30 May 2009 · 7,516 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleResearch Note: Predicting MRSA Colonization of the Hospitalized Patient on AdmissionRocco J. Perla, Gail E. Cormier, Eric L. Knutson et al.The primary aim of this brief and exploratory study was to examine the ability of two Infection Control Practitioners in a medium size community hospital to effectively predict the MRSA colonization status of patients on admission compared to a standard MRSA screen in real time using only their clinical judgment and review of selected hospital documents. Sensitivity and specificity results … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2007 · 7,316 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleMultipatch-GLCM for Texture Feature Extraction on Classification of the Colon Histopathology Images using Deep Neural Network with GPU AccelerationToto Haryanto, Adib Pratama, Heru Suhartanto et al.Cancer is one of the leading causes of death in the world. It is the main reason why research in this field becomes challenging. Not only for the pathologist but also from the view of a computer scientist. Hematoxylin and Eosin (H&E) images are the most common modalities used by the pathologist for cancer detection.
