Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEfficient Pre-processing of USF and MIAS Mammogram ImagesAyman A. AbuBaker, R. S. Qahwaji, Musbah J. Aqel et al.High quality mammogram images are high resolution and large size images. Processing these images require high computational capabilities. The transmission of these images over the net is sometimes critical especially if the diagnosis of remote radiologists is required. In this paper, a pre-processing technique for reducing the size and enhancing the quality of USF and MIAS mammogram images is introduced. … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2007 · 7,167 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Near Real-time Early Warning System on Erosion HazardsFaisal H. Ali, Tew K. HuiWith many incidences of landslides, mudslides and erosion occurrences lately, especially in the highlands in Malaysia, properties were damaged and lives were lost. Seeing the need of resolving and minimizing such untoward incidences, a study has been embarked on developing a near real-time early warning system on erosion hazards so as to provide an early warning to the public, whenever … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2006 · 6,706 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPerformance Enhancement on Voice using VAD Algorithm and Cepstral AnalysisT. Ravichandran, K. D. SamyThe Transport of Voice Over Network has been existing for a long time. Due to the bad quality of speech and absence of useful service, it has not yet been widely spread. The benefits of reduced cost and bandwidth savings of carrying voice over data network is associated with Quality of Service (QoS). Many different techniques and protocols are used … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 2, Issue 11 · 30 Nov 2006 · 6,584 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAdaptive Hybrid Mobile Agent Protocol for Wireless Multihop Internet AccessA. Velmurugan, R. RajaramInternet-based Mobile Ad Hoc Networking (MANET) is an emerging technology that supports self-organizing mobile networking infrastructures. This is expected to be of great use in commercial applications for the next generation Internet users. A number of technical challenges are faced today due to the heterogeneous, dynamic nature of this hybrid MANET. A new hybrid routing scheme AODV_ALMA is proposed, which … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 2, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2006 · 6,119 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHydroxyapatite-induced Phagocytic Activity by Murine Macrophages in vitroV.K. Gopinath, M. Musa, A.R. Samsudin et al.The aim of the present study was to assess phagocytic activities of murine macrophages (RAW264.7 cell line) to hydroxyapatite (HA) particles. Transmission electron microscope (TEM) was used to assess localization of HA particles in the cells at 7, 15, 30 and 60 min. The HA particles and latex beads, as a control, were also incubated with the cells pretreated with … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2006 · 6,370 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInterventions and Patterns of Risk in Adolescent HIV/AIDS PreventionRobert M. Malow, Rhonda Rosenberg, Geri Donenberg, Jessy G. DévieuxMid-way through the third decade of experience in preventing HIV/AIDS among adolescents, behavioral interventions and outcomes for high risk subgroups have generated evidence extremely instructive for navigating future priorities in reducing transmission risk behavior. Youth who abuse alcohol or drugs, who are detained or incarcerated, or have mental health co-morbidity such as externalizing disorders, represent the most significant challenge to … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2006 · 7,281 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractApplication of T-Code, Turbo Codes and Pseudo-Random Sequence for SteganographyAnil Kumar, Navin RajpalIn this study, we propose new technique that will address the problem of robustness and data safety in steganography. The steganography consists of techniques to allow the communication between two persons, hiding not only the contents but also the very existence of the communication in the eyes of any observer. T-Codes used with Turbo Codes generates cryptic and error-coded data … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2006 · 7,079 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBalancing Treatment and Prevention: The Case of HIV/AIDSJoseph Y.T. MugishaA mathematical model is formulated to study the effect of treatment of HIV/AIDS patients on the spread of the epidemic in a two-age group’s population. The model assumes the sexual transmission mode. A proportion δ, of the adult HIV/AIDS infects is assumed to be receiving treatment. The analysis of the model shows that treatment that is not accompanied by a … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2005 · 7,031 accessesView PDFCite
