Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBack Propagation Neural Network Arabic Characters Classification Module Utilizing Microsoft WordA. A. HamzaProblem statement: Arabic character recognition has been one of the last major languages to receive attention. This may be attributed to the inherent complexity of both printed and handwritten Arabic characters. The objectives of this study were to: (i) summarize the main characteristics of Arabic language writing style. (ii) suggest a neural network recognition circuit. Approach: A Neural network with … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 4, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2008 · 7,831 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Investigation of Valve Lift Effect on Air Flow and Coefficient of Discharge of Four Stroke Engines Based on ExperimentAbdul Rahim Ismail, Rosli Abu Bakar, SeminThe coefficient of discharge (CD) is defined as the ratio of actual discharge to ideal discharge. In an engine environment, ideal discharge considers an ideal gas and the process to be free from friction, surface tension, etc. Coefficients of discharge are widely used to monitor the flow efficiency through various engine components and are quite useful in improving the performance … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2008 · 7,431 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHormetic Triggers for Intervention in Aging, Disease and TraumaJoan Smith SonnebornHormesis refers to the ability of a chemical or physical agent to condition the physiological state of an organism to tolerate stress with low doses of otherwise harmful agents. Evolutionary evidence shows that the survival and longevity of species hinge on their optimal ability to resist stress challenge. Hormesis is a potent strategy to stimulate latent repair processes to tolerate … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2008 · 7,895 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAFLPs in Warmblood Sporting Horses: Genetic Correlation with Height at the WithersV. Sanchez, C. Lemus, A. Inchaustegui et al.The Mexican army produces Warmblood horses for jumping proposes. However, breeding is based on phenotype and stallions are selected stepwise until the end of growth, representing a high care and maintenance cost. In this work using 64 selective primer combinations and AFLP technology we identified specific molecular markers related with height at the withers measurements of Warmblood horses. AFLPs generated … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2007 · 6,753 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLQ-Moments: Application to the Log-Normal distributionAni Shabri, Abdul A. JemainMudolkar and Hutson (1998) extended L-moments to new moment like entitles called LQmoments (LQMOM). The LQMOM are constructed by using functional defining the quick estimators, where the parameters of quick estimator take the values p = 0, α = 1 for the median, p = 1/4, α = 1/4 for the trimean and p = 0.3, α = 1/3 for … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2006 · 6,998 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractControl of Phenolic Compound Secretion and Effect of Growth Regulators for Organ Formation from Musa spp. cv. Kanthali Floral Bud ExplantsSoubir Titov, Salil Kumar Bhowmik, Ajoy Mandal et al.The study was undertaken to examine banana cv. Kanthali floral bud apex as an alternative source material for in vitro propagation because huge number of explants die due to microbial contamination in case of shoot tip explants. Contamination free cultures were established by treating the floral bud explants with 0.1% HgCl2 for 6 min. This study found that inflorescence tissues … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2006 · 7,742 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMesoscopic Damage Based Model for Plane Concrete under Static and Dynamic LoadingsM. Labibzadeh, S. A. SadrnejadThe constitutive equations for the mechanical behavior of concrete capable of seeing damage effects or crack growth procedure under loading/unloading/reloading was developed upon microplane framework. The proposed damage formulation has been built on the basis of five fundamental types of stress/strain combinations, which essentially may occur on any of microplanes. Model verification under different loading/unloading/reloading stress/strain paths has been examined. … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2006 · 8,044 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBDD Path Length Minimization Based on Initial Variable OrderingP. W.C. Prasad, M. Raseen, A. Assi, S. M.N.A. SenanayakeA large variety of problems in digital system design, combinational optimization and verification can be formulated in terms of operations performed on Boolean functions. The time complexity of Binary Decision Diagram (BDD) representing a Boolean function is directly related to the path length of that BDD. In this paper we present a method to generate a BDD with minimum path … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2005 · 6,504 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDesign of a LOW Cost IC TesterLiakot Ali, Roslina Sidek, Ishak Aris et al.Low cost Integrated Circuit (IC) testing is now a burning issue in semiconductor technology. Conventional IC tester, Automatic Test Equipment (ATE), cannot cope with the today’s continuously increasing complexities in IC technology. Deterministic algorithm, which is an idea of 1960’s, is adopted in the ATE. Recently pseudo-random testing approach of IC testing has been emerged as an economically viable alternative … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2005 · 7,063 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAssociation of Landscape Metrics to Surface Water Biology in the Savannah River BasinMaliha S. Nash, Deborah J. Chaloud, Susan E. FransonSurface water quality for the Savannah River basin was assessed using water biology and landscape metrics. Two multivariate analyses, partial least square and canonical correlation, were used to describe how the structural variation in landscape metrics may affect surface water biology and to define the key landscape variable(s) that contribute the most to variation in surface water quality. The results … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2005 · 6,292 accessesView PDFCite
