Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStatic Hand Gestures: Fingertips Detection Based on Segmented ImagesAhmad Yahya Dawod, Md Jan Nordin, Junaidi AbdullahFingertips detection is important for recognition of static gesture in sign language. This paper presents a new method that is based on YCbCr colour space and skeletonization for fingertips detection towards gesture segmentation and recognition. The method begins with the conversion of an image in RGB colour space into YCbCr colour space. Then, the chrominance Cb and Cr are extracted … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 11, Issue 12 · 4 Feb 2016 · 7,032 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractChange in Temperature of Skin, Blood, Muscle and Bone Tissues Due to Mobile Phone Radiations at Frequencies 800, 900, 1800 and 2450 MHzMushtaq Ahmed Bhat, Vijay KumarThe mathematical calculation of change in temperature of skin, blood, muscle and bone tissues of human being working at the frequency of 800, 900, 1800 and 2450 MHz is done in this manuscript. The power of the antenna of mobile phone is of 2 W. The calculation is made at the various depths, by taking the different distances of human … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 21 Jun 2015 · 7,353 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractProblems of Ultra-High Energy Cosmic RaysAnna V. UrysonCosmic rays are energetic particles coming to the Earth from space. They bombard the atmosphere producing cascades of particles that spread over a large area when they reach the ground. Cosmic ray energies vary in the wide band from about 108 eV up to few 1020 eV. It is established that most particles with energies of ~ (108-109) eV come … …Space Science International, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 6 Dec 2014 · 13,854 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractON THE ABSENCE OF ANTIMATTER FROM THE UNIVERSE, DARK MATTER, THE FINE STRUCTURE PARAMETER, THE FLUCTUATIONS OF THE COSMIC MICROWAVE BACKGROUND RADIATION AND THE TEMPERATURE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE NORTHERN AND SOUTHERN HEMISPHERE OF THE UNIVERSEEmmanuil ManousosThe theory of selfvariations correlates five cosmological observations considered to be unrelated by the physical theories of the previous century. The absence of antimatter from the Universe, the Dark Matter, the slight variation of the fine structure parameter, the temperature fluctuations of the cosmic microwave background radiation and the temperature difference between the northern and southern hemisphere of the Universe … …Physics International, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 28 Nov 2014 · 8,881 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractASSESSMENT OF ORGANIC WASTE MANAGEMENT METHODS THROUGH ENERGY BALANCEAntonio Comparetti, Pierluigi Febo, Carlo Greco et al.In Italy, the Organic Fraction of Municipal Solid Waste (OFMSW) is nowadays landfilled or processed through aerobic composting. The Italian towns currently support a high cost for OFMSW disposal and cause a high environmental impact, because of long distances travelled from towns to a few available landfills and fewer treatment places, as well as the used waste management methods. An … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2014 · 7,212 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA TIME SYNCHRONIZED HYBRID VEHICULAR AD HOC NETWORK OF ROADSIDE SENSORS AND VEHICLES FOR SAFE DRIVINGDahlia Sam, V. Cyril RajVANET is a type of ad hoc network in which the moving vehicles act as nodes. There has been lot of research for using VANETs in many applications. One of the main applications is the use of VANETs to improve driving safety. In any safety related applications, the vehicular nodes have to constantly communicate with each other and the roadside … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 10, Issue 9 · 10 Apr 2014 · 8,109 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPERFORMANCE ANALYSIS OF GRAY LEVEL CO-OCCURRENCE MATRIX TEXTURE FEATURES FOR GLAUCOMA DIAGNOSISSakthivel Karthikeyan, N. RengarajanGlaucoma is a multifactorial optic neuropathy disease characterized by elevated Intra Ocular Pressure (IOP). As the visual loss caused by the disease is irreversible, early detection is essential. Fundus images are used as input and it is preprocessed using histogram equalization. First order features from histogram and second order features from Gray Level Co-occurrence Matrix (GLCM) are extracted from the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 24 Dec 2013 · 7,326 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDetermining the Impact of Darkness on Highway Traffic Shockwave PropagationParameswary Sundara, Othman Che Puan, Mohammad Rosli HaininDuring darkness visibility diminishes resulting in reduced sight distances and drivers are subjected to anxiety that may give way to anger and frustration. However, the study is concerned with traffic shockwave propagation that could be associated with darkness on highways. Based on the hypothesis that darkness may induce temporary traffic shockwave propagation in the presence of substantial traffic volume, darkness … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 9 · 24 Aug 2013 · 7,071 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHomology Modeling of Buffalo (Bubalus bubalis) Interferon-Tau ProteinIndu Joshi, Sunil Kumar, Arminder Kaur et al.Interferon-tau (IFNt) contributes towards maternal recognition of pregnancy in ruminants (like, cattle, buffalo, goat, giraffe). IFNt has been extensively studied in most of the ruminants except for buffalo Bubalus bubalis). The present study has been undertaken to predict the secondary structure of Interferon-tau in buffalo. The available amino acid sequence of bubaline IFNt (sequence database of SwissProt) was subjected to … …Current Research in Bioinformatics, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 17 Apr 2013 · 7,003 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAssessment of Genetic Diversity among Sugarcane Cultivars (Saccharum officinarum L.) using Simple Sequence Repeats MarkersAshutosh Pandey, Rupesh K. Mishra, Shashank Mishra et al.Problem statement: Increasing sugar productivity is the main concern of sugarcane (Saccharum officinarum L.) breeding programs. The complexity and size of the sugarcane genome is a major limitation in its genetic improvement. Characterization of sugarcane provides essential information of genetic diversity for breeders utilize for crop improvement. Approach and Results: The objective of this study was to evaluate the microsatellite … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 27 Jan 2012 · 7,563 accessesView PDFCite
