Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Incidence of Fibromyoma and Polycystic Ovary Syndrome in Women in Trinidad (2000-2003)E. O. Uche-Nwachi, A. Odekunle, M. Welch et al.Problem statement: Before this study was done there were no reports of similar studies in Trinidad whereas similar study had been reported from other parts of the World including the Caribbean sub-region. The present study was thus designed to investigate the incidence and demographics of leiomyomata and polycystic ovary syndrome in women in two health institutions in Trinidad during the … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2009 · 7,550 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMolecular Evidence for the Association of a Strain of Uganda Variant of East African Cassava Mosaic Virus to Symptom Severity in Cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) Fields in TogoK. D. Adjata, E. Muller, M. Peterschmitt et al.Problem statement: This study was carried out to demonstrate that the severity of Cassava Mosaic Disease (CMD) in Togo, is not only influenced by synergism between cassava Begomoviruses in presence, but essentially by recombination between the different Begomoviruses infecting cassava. Approach: Foliar samples presenting typical biological features of Begomoviruses infection were collected from cassava and wild infected plants from different … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2009 · 7,423 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Effect of Bone Properties due to Skeletal Diseases on Stability of Cementless Hip StemsMohammed Rafiq Abdul Kadir, Nazri KamsahProblem statement: There are two types of implant fixation in hip joint replacement-cemented and cementless. The cemented types are, in general, more popular due to concerns of possible inability of cementless implants achieving maximum primary stability for bone integration. The concern is more significant in cases where there are major losses of cancellous bone stock and thinning of the trabeculae … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2009 · 7,171 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFixed Representative Colors Feature Extraction Algorithm for Moving Picture Experts Group-7 Dominant Color DescriptorAhmed Ibrahim, Ala'a Al-Zou'bi, Raed Sahawneh, Maria MakhadmehProblem statement: MPEG-7 has defined a set of color descriptors for the multimedia contents; one of these descriptors is the Dominant Color Descriptor (DCD). The DCD adopted the Generalized Lloyd Algorithm (GLA) as a feature extraction technique. However, using this algorithm in image retrieval systems may produce perceptually irrelevant images in the ranked results. Approach: In this study, we proposed … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 5, Issue 11 · 30 Nov 2009 · 7,552 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFrom Feature Selection to Building of Bayesian Classifiers: A Network Intrusion Detection PerspectiveKok-Chin Khor, Choo-Yee Ting, Somnuk-Phon AmnuaisukProblem statement: Implementing a single or multiple classifiers that involve a Bayesian Network (BN) is a rising research interest in network intrusion detection domain. Approach: However, little attention has been given to evaluate the performance of BN classifiers before they could be implemented in a real system. In this research, we proposed a novel approach to select important features by … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 11 · 30 Nov 2009 · 7,076 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Genetic Algorithm for the Segmentation of Known Touching ObjectsEdgar Scavino, Dzuraidah Abdul Wahab, Hassan Basri et al.Problem statement: Segmentation is the first and fundamental step in the process of computer vision and object classification. However, complicate or similar colour pattern add complexity to the segmentation of touching objects. The objective of this study was to develop a robust technique for the automatic segmentation and classification of touching plastic bottles, whose features were previously stored in a … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 5, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2009 · 7,128 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLandscape Change and Sandy Desertification Monitoring and AssessmentEltahir Mohd Elhadi, Nagi Zomrawi, Hu GuangdaoProblem statement: The objective of this study is to develop techniques for assessing and analyzing sand desertification in the northern part of Shaanxi Province, China. Approach: In order to reveal the process of land degradation, especially the latest situation of sandy desertification, a method integrating remote sensing, Geographic Information System (GIS) and field survey was employed to build a sandy … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 5 · 31 Oct 2009 · 7,128 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEstimation of Earthquake-Induced Crest Settlements of EmbankmentsRaghvendra Singh, Debasis RoyProblem statement: Freeboard requirement, a major consideration in the design of embankment dams, is controlled to a great extent by the crest settlements during earthquakes. Approach: The parameters that influence earthquake induced crest settlement had been studied using 152 published case histories on performance of embankment dams during earthquakes. Results: Based on the results a correlation had been proposed for … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2009 · 8,030 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInterface Micromotion of Cementless Hip Stems in Simulated Hip ArthroplastyMohammed Rafiq Abdul Kadir, Nazri KamsahProblem statement: The design of hip prostheses has evolved over time due to various complications found after hip replacement surgery. The currently commercially available cementless femoral stems can be categorized into one of three major types, straight cylindrical, tapered rectangular and anatomical. Each type proposes a unique concept to achieve primary stability-a major requirement for bone healing process. Virtual analyses … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2009 · 7,324 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractWavelet-Based Geometry Coding for Three Dimensional Mesh Using Space Frequency QuantizationShymaa T. El-Leithy, Walaa M. ShetaProblem statement: Recently, 3D objects have been used in several applications like internet games, virtual reality and scientific visualization. These applications require real time rendering and fast transmission of large objects through internet. However, due to limitation of bandwidth, the compression and streaming of 3D object is still an open research problem. Approach: Novel procedure for compression and coding of … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 5, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2009 · 6,605 accessesView PDFCite
