Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFollowing the Heart: The History of the J-Curve in Stroke RiskShoshana Reshef, Daniel ReshefReports of a J-shaped relationship between blood pressure and ischemic stroke are rare. The purpose of this study was to trace the published history of the J-curve theory as it relates to blood pressure, ischemic heart disease and eventually ischemic stroke. The J-curve publications on the relationship between Diastolic Blood Pressure (DBP) and ischemic stroke suggest that in certain populations, … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2008 · 7,356 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordAn Adaptive Thresholding Algorithm-Based Optical Character Recognition System for Information Extraction in Complex ImagesDaniel Akinbade, Adewale Opeoluwa Ogunde, Mba Obasi Odim, Bosede Oyenike OguntundeExtracting texts from images with complex backgrounds is a major challenge today. Many existing Optical Character Recognition (OCR) systems could not handle this problem. As reported in the literature, some existing methods that can handle the problem still encounter major difficulties with extracting texts from images with sharp varying contours, touching word and skewed words from scanned documents and images … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 16, Issue 6 · 14 Jun 2020 · 8,470 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordCharacterization of Composite Structure Surface Uniformity using Interval Based Gradient Field Histogram Analysis of Thermographic Images (IGF-HA)Mahmoud Zaki IskandaraniThis paper presents a new approach to composite surface characterization using Image Histogram Analysis as a function of Gradient Field. Image sequences are weighed and combined in order to present a pattern change in the thermal response of a tested composite structure. Reaction Injection Molding samples used and subjected to thermal energy to characterize their surface uniformity and any existing … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 14, Issue 6 · 25 May 2018 · 7,971 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordAdaptive Complementary Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor Device by Externally Controlled Gate Oxide ThicknessB. Gopi, R. S.D. WahidabanuProblem statement: Since the advent of IC and VLSI technology, the demand for high-speed devices and equipment is growing very rapidly. Every individual researcher is marching towards the dream of achieving it. The role of a design engineer is becoming more challenging. As per Moore’s law, the packing density doubles every eighteen months. This is possible only by scaling down … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 1 Feb 2012 · 7,103 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordActive Fire Monitoring with Level 1.5 MSG Satellite ImagesAbdelatif Hassini, Farid Benabdelouahed, Noureddine Benabadji, Ahmed Hafid BelbachirThe first of the new generation of Meteosat satellites, known as Meteosat Second Generation (MSG-1), was launched in August 2002. As with the current Meteosat series, MSG is spin-stabilized and capable of greatly enhanced Earth observations. The satellite’s 12-channel imager, known formally as the Spinning Enhanced Visible and Infrared Imager (SEVIRI), observes the full disk of the Earth with an … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2009 · 8,130 accessesView PDF Cite
