Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSchoenberg Logarithmic Image Similarity in Prewitt-Gabor-Zernike DomainAhmed Jebur Ali, Zahir M. Hussain, Mohammed Sahib Mechee, Zainab Ali KhalafThis paper represents a new approach for face recognition that incorporates Prewitt edge detection, Gabor filter and Zernike moments to transform the image into a unified domain. On this joint domain, five distance metrics are constructed using Schoenberg transform for the purpose of defining efficient similarity measures for holistic face recognition. The proposed Schoenberg similarity applies Schoenberg transform to the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 9 · 28 Sep 2017 · 7,936 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMachine Learning Techniques for Software Bug Prediction: A Systematic ReviewSyahana Nur’Ain Saharudin, Koh Tieng Wei, Kew Si NaThe goal of software bug prediction is to identify the software modules that will have the likelihood to get bugs by using some fundamental project resources before the real testing starts. Due to high cost in correcting the detected bugs, it is advisable to start predicting bugs at the early stage of development instead of at the testing phase. There … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 16, Issue 11 · 14 Nov 2020 · 9,386 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Insight into the Simplified RP Transmission Network, Concise Baseline and SIR Models for Simulating the Transmissibility of the Novel Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) OutbreakEva Gupta, Nand Jee KanuThe World Health Organization has reported about a Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome, Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV2) (a virus of Wuhan, China pneumonia).
