Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractApplication of a Multi Stage Method to Assess the Landscape Alteration Induced by Quarrying Sites: A Comparative AnalysisDario Lippiello, Guido Alfaro Degan, Marco De Agostini, Mario PinzariThe aim of this study is to provide a design tool to forecast the effects that extraction methods and reclamation plans will generate on the land surrounding quarry sites. The method is based on a graphical approach and it consists of three consecutive phases. The first phase focuses on the quarry plant and aims to quantify the extent of the … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 5 · 2 Sep 2016 · 6,967 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractBig Data and Parkinson’s Disease - from Understanding of Disease to Personalised MedicineYen F. Tai, Nicola PaveseThe advancement of information technology in recent years has generated a huge amount of datasets in all areas of scientific research. This has led to new opportunities to harness the 'Big Data' to improve our understanding of diseases - from investigating disease mechanisms to monitoring treatment responses. The Big Data approach is a data-driven and often hypothesis-free, way of studying … …Neuroscience International, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 27 Jul 2016 · 7,761 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractProtecting crop species from biotic and abiotic constraints in the era of Global Change: are we ready for this challenge?Marco Landi, Giovanni BenelliReliable and affordable supply of food is of crucial importance to the progress and stability of human societies. During the last century, we have assisted to an extraordinary increase of crop yields, especially for the most widespread and consumed crop species, such as rice, wheat, corn and soybean. The Broadbalk experiment, one of the oldest continuous agronomic experiments in the … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 4 Jun 2016 · 8,402 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImpact of the Edges of a Backside Diffusive Reflector on the External Quantum Efficiency of Luminescent Solar Concentrators: Experimental and Computational ApproachMauro Pravettoni, Cristina S. Polo Lòpez, Robert P. KennyLuminescent Solar Concentrators (LSCs) have been proposed in the 1970s as cheap planar concentrators for residential applications and nowadays represent a novel idea with excellent perspectives for building integration photovoltaics. The interest in LSCs has increased in the last years, due to improved stability of luminescent dyes, the introduction of quantum dots and nanorods and the overall reported increase in … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 18 Jan 2016 · 8,368 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractImpact of Quantitative Pharmacology on Drug DevelopmentAna Ruiz-Garcia, Kourosh ParivarThesuccess of drug development rests over two well defined pillars, a goodunderstanding of the drug’s clinical pharmacology and the appropriate targetpopulation for whom the clinical use is intended. The label for human prescription drugsrequires a good understanding of the pharmacological effects (pharmacodynamicsor PD) and the mechanism of action of the drug as well as detailed informationof the drug’s Pharmacokinetics (PK): … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 24 Apr 2015 · 7,164 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractExact Permutation Algorithm for Paired Observations: A General and Efficient VersionDavid T. MorseFor the better part of a century, methods have been illustrated for the enumeration of all possible permutations of cases from which an exact characterization of the likelihood of obtaining results as or more extreme as that observed may be determined without having to rely on parametric assumptions or schemes that may be only asymptotically correct. The challenge is the … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 10, Issue 4 · 5 Jan 2015 · 6,677 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractINDEPENDENT COMPONENT ANALYSIS AND DISCRETE WAVELET TRANSFORM FOR ARTIFACT REMOVAL IN BIOMEDICAL SIGNAL PROCESSINGSalvatore Calcagno, Fabio La Foresta, Mario VersaciRecent works have shown that artifact removal in biomedical signals can be performed by using Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT) or Independent Component Analysis (ICA). It results often very difficult to remove some artifacts because they could be superimposed on the recordings and they could corrupt the signals in the frequency domain. The two conditions could compromise the performance of both … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 27 Nov 2013 · 7,856 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Hybrid Method for Automatic Speech Recognition Performance Improvement in Real World Noisy EnvironmentUrmila Shrawankar, Vilas ThakareIt is a well known fact that, speech recognition systems perform well when the system is used in conditions similar to the one used to train the acoustic models. However, mismatches degrade the performance. In adverse environment, it is very difficult to predict the category of noise in advance in case of real world environmental noise and difficult to achieve … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 27 Feb 2013 · 7,758 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOn the Successive Overrelaxation MethodI. K. YoussefProblem statement: A new variant of the Successive Overrelaxation (SOR) method for solving linear algebraic systems, the KSOR method was introduced. The treatment depends on the assumption that the current component can be used simultaneously in the evaluation in addition to the use the most recent calculated components as in the SOR method. Approach: Using the hidden explicit characterization of … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 22 Feb 2012 · 12,809 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Review of Covering Arrays and Their Application to Software TestingBestoun S. Ahmed, Kamal Z. ZamliProblem statement: As a complex logic system, software may suffer from different source of faults. Those faults can be avoided by applying different testing processes. It appears recently that the interaction among the system factors represents a common source of faults. Software function properly, all input factors and their interactions of the software need to be tested i.e., exhaustive testing. … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 9 · 23 Jul 2011 · 8,713 accessesView PDFCite
