Literature ReviewOpen accessIn the abstractInternal Migration and Poverty Reduction: Rethinking the Debate on the North-South Movement in GhanaRichard Serbeh, Prince Osei-Wusu Adjei, Thomas YeboahIn the past few years the nexus that link internal migration and poverty reduction has been a subject of interest among researchers and policy makers. Internal movements constitute a major coping mechanism in poverty stricken areas although the evidence supporting this claim is equivocal. This paper critically examines the extent to which internal migration could acts as an important route … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 1 · 16 Nov 2015 · 7,943 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDEVELOPMENT OF A BACTERIAL CULTURE SYSTEM USING A PAPER PLATFORM TO ACCOMMODATE MEDIA AND AN INK-JET PRINTING TO DISPENSE BACTERIATithimanan Srimongkon, Takuya Ishida, Kiyohiko Igarashi, Toshiharu EnomaeGenerally, bacterial culture is performed manually and is subject to error. Here, we created a novel, well-ordered and reliable system for dispensing bacteria microscopically by using paper and an ink-jet printer for controlled patterning. For paper to accommodate a culture medium, hydrophobic/hydrophilic patterns were incorporated onto the paper by immersing paper in a toluene solution of polystyrene and drying for … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 26 Apr 2014 · 7,939 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 abstractImproving the Performance of Multivariate Bernoulli Model based Documents Clustering Algorithms using Transformation TechniquesPerumal Pitchandi, Nedunchezhian RajuProblem statement: Document clustering is the most important areas of data mining since they are very much and currently the subject of significant global research since such areas strengthen the enterprises of web intelligence, web mining, web search engine design and so forth. Generative models based on the multivariate Bernoulli and multinomial distributions have been widely used for text classification. … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 5 · 7 May 2011 · 7,281 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIntelligent Sensor for Image Control Point of Eigenfaces for Face RecognitionMohamed Lamine Toure, Zou BeijiProblem statement: The sensor for image control point in Face Recognition (FR) is one of the most active research areas in computer vision and pattern recognition. Its practical application includes forensic identification, access control and human computer interface. The task of a FR system is to compare an input face image against a database containing a set of face samples … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 5 · 31 May 2010 · 6,974 accessesView PDFCite
