Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesNOVEL IMAGE-DEPENDENT QUALITY ASSESSMENT MEASURESZahir M. Hussain, Asaad Noori HashimThe image is a 2D signal whose pixels are highly correlated in a 2D manner. Hence, using pixel by pixel error what we called previously Mean-Square Error, (MSE) is not an efficient way to compare two similar images (e.g., an original image and a compressed version of it). Due to this correlation, image comparison needs a correlative quality measure. It … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 10, Issue 8 · 27 Feb 2014 · 7,436 accessesView PDFCite

Currently, the HLIs are using paper-based process to record students’ attendance in the … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 10, Issue 6 · 30 Jan 2014 · 7,679 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesModification of Carbon Steel by Laser Surface Melting: Part II: Effect of Laser Beam Power on Microstructural Features and Surface HardnessHashem F. El-Labban, M. Abdelaziz, Essam R.I. MahmoudThe surface hardness has an important effect on the wear resistance of different materials. The present study aims to improve the surface hardness of carbon steel through the application of laser surface melting with suitable conditions. The laser beam power and travelling speed are the main factors that affect the properties of the treated zone. In this study, three different … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 30 Jan 2014 · 7,211 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesMODELING THE EFFECTIVENESS OF THE CORPORATE IDENTITY MIX IN PERCEIVED QUALITY AND CUSTOMER-RELATED BRAND EQUITY WITH INTERPRETIVE STRUCTURAL EQUATIONS AND MICMAC ANALYSISMahsa Pishdar, Mohammad Reza Seyyed Hashemi Toloun, Fereshteh Farzianpour, Morteza RezaeiaslThis study aims to identify the relation between corporate identity mix, perceived quality on customers’ behalf and customer-centric brand equity. A review of the available literature within this scope resulted in making a primary model which represents that the corporate identity mix has an effect upon the perceived quality and brand equity by some variables such as corporate image and … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 29 Jan 2014 · 7,163 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesCharacterization of Aluminum Alloy-Based Nanocomposites Produced by the Addition of AL-TI5-B1 to the Matrix MeltHashem F. El-Labban, M. Abdelaziz, Essam R.I. MahmoudThe present study is an attempt to produce aluminum matrix nanocomposites using a certain aluminum alloy (which its melt has high fluidity) as a matrix material and reinforced with hard and stable fine (nano-sized) precipitates. Therefore, Al-Ti5-B1 master alloy and Al-Si alloy of high silicon content were proposed for preparation of such nanocomposites. Three nanocomposites were prepared by adding Al-Ti5-B1 … …Current Research in Nanotechnology, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 9 Jan 2014 · 7,130 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesADDITIVE AND MULTIPLICATIVE NOISE REMOVAL BASED ON ADAPTIVE WAVELET TRANSFORMATION USING CYCLE SPINNINGAsem Khmag, Abd Rahman Ramli, Syed Abdul Rahman Al-Haddad, Shaiful Jahari Bin HashimThe need for image restoration is encountered in many practical applications. For instance, distortion due to Additive White Gaussian Noise (AWGN) or in some cases the multiplicative (speckle) one can be caused by poor quality image acquisition. Wavelet denoising attempts to remove these types of noise present in the signal while preserving the signal characteristics, regardless of its frequency content. … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 27 Dec 2013 · 7,632 accessesView PDFCite
