Interactive online module covering the main fundamental aspects of the subject was developed and made available to students prior to the class. Students who accessed the online module found to be more active in classroom response … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 13, Issue 3 · 25 Aug 2017 · 7,877 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTowards a Higher Learning Motivation among Malaysian Undergraduate Students - A Case Study of Motivation Change in Malaysian Undergraduate Students after the Global Study Program (GSP) in JapanLim Way Soong, Leow Meng Chew, Lim Chot Hun et al.This research paper outlines the Malaysian and Japanese undergraduate students' learning motivation, before and after joining a Global Study Program (GSP) held in Chiba University, Japan from 14 March-28 March 2016. A total of 15 Malaysian undergraduate students from Multimedia University, consisting of 2nd year to 4th year students, joined the GSP together with 15 Japanese 1st year to 4th … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 8 · 19 Aug 2017 · 8,101 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Overview of Concentrating Photovoltaic Thermal (CPVT) CollectorsReza Danesh Azarian, Erdem Cuce, Pinar Mert CuceConcentrating Photovoltaic Thermal Collectors (CPVT) are in the centre of interest among solar collectors. CPVT collectors’ features such as high efficiency and multi-output stimulate researchers and industry partners to focus on this technology. Innovative design is the key point in achieving an efficient collector. In this study, a comprehensive research is conducted on the state-of-the-art developments in CPVT collectors covering … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 7 Jul 2017 · 8,316 accessesView PDFCite
Literature ReviewOpen accessIn the abstractCombinatorial Interaction Testing of Software Product Lines: A Mapping StudyMohd Zanes Sahid, Abu Bakar Md Sultan, Abdul Azim Abdul Ghani, Salmi BaharomSoftware Product Line (SPL) is a software engineering paradigm that is inspired by the concept of reusability of common features, formulated for different software product. Complete testing on entire SPL is known to be unfeasible, due to the very large number of possible products to be produced, configured using a subset or all possible features in the SPL. This paper … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 12, Issue 8 · 20 Oct 2016 · 8,480 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractClassification of Breast Tumor in Mammogram Images Using Unsupervised Feature LearningAidarus M. Ibrahim, Baharum Baharudin, Abas Md Said, P. N. HashimahIn this study, we propose a learning-based approach using feature learning to minimize the manual effort required to extract features. Firstly, we extracted features from equally spaced sub-patches covering the input Region of Interest (ROI). The dimensionality of the extracted features is reduced using max-pooling. Furthermore, spherical k-means clustering coupled with max pooling (k-means-max pooling) is compared with well-known feature … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 5 · 13 May 2016 · 7,497 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComparison of Stochastic and Deterministic Methods for Mapping Environmental Noise from Opencast QuarriesDario Lippiello, Guido Alfaro Degan, Mario PinzariAn accurate mapping of the acoustic spatial variability generated by quarrying plants constitutes an important step in the assessment of the environmental compatibility of the extraction site with the surrounding area. This paper refers to the results of a study comparing performances obtained by stochastic and deterministic methods to determine the acoustic climate of the areas surrounding opencast quarries. To … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 2 · 28 Mar 2016 · 7,394 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRealizing the Impact of Cognitive Dissonance in Predicting Consumer BehaviourAkhilesh Chandra Pandey, Mohit JamwalConsumer psychology has always been the centre of concern for the marketers from the old time and understanding the underlying aspects leads to effective decision making. The present study elicits the concept of post purchase cognitive dissonance in the consumers and embraces its implications in studying the consumer behaviour. A survey was conducted and well framed questionnaire was constructed covering … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 1 · 1 Nov 2015 · 9,134 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMulti-Timescale Microscopic Theory for Radiation Degradation of Electronic and Optoelectronic DevicesDanhong Huang, Fei Gao, D.A. Cardimona et al.A multi-timescale hybrid model is proposed to study microscopically the degraded performance of electronic devices, covering three individual stages of radiation effects studies, including ultra-fast displacement cascade, intermediate defect stabilization and cluster formation, as well as slow defect reaction and migration. Realistic interatomic potentials are employed in molecular-dynamics calculations for the first two stages up to 100 ns as well … …Space Science International, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 15 Jun 2015 · 10,235 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGenetic Algorithm for Variable and Samples Selection in Multivariate Calibration ProblemsKelton de Souza Santiago, Anderson Silva Soares, Telma Woerle de Lima et al.One of the main problems of quantitative analytical chemistry is to estimate the concentration of one or more species from the values of certain physicochemical properties of the system of interest. For this it is necessary to construct a calibration model, i.e., to determine the relationship between measured properties and concentrations. The multivariate calibration is one of the most successful … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 8 Jun 2015 · 7,381 accessesView PDFCite
