Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMulberry Fruits Extract Mitigate Vascular DementiaPratchaya Kaewkaen, Jintanaporn Wattanathorn, Terdthai Thong-Un et al.To date, Vascular Dementia (VaD) is the second most commonly found dementia following Alzheimer�s disease. Though VaD is still increasing its importance, the therapeutic efficacy is still not in satisfaction level. Therefore, the searching for an acceptable cheap and safe neuroprotective agent is in a great demand. Based on the neuroprotective and cognitive enhancing effects in alcohol neurotoxicity of mulberry … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 11 · 1 Sep 2012 · 6,967 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Hybridization of Enhanced Artificial Bee Colony-Least Squares Support Vector Machines for Price ForecastingZuriani Mustaffa, Yuhanis YusofProblem statement: As the performance of Least Squares Support Vector Machines (LSSVM) is highly rely on its value of regularization parameter, γ and kernel parameter, σ2, man-made approach is clearly not an appropriate solution since it may lead to blindness in certain extent. In addition, this technique is time consuming and unsystematic, which consequently affect the generalization performance of LSSVM. … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 10 · 28 Aug 2012 · 6,796 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMoringa oleifera Leaves Extract Attenuates Neuropathic Pain Induced by Chronic Constriction InjuryJurairat Khongrum, Jintanaporn Wattanathorn, Supaporn Muchimapura et al.Problem statement: Neuropathic pain, a challenge of this decade, has been reported to be associated with the diversity conditions including diabetes. At present, there are no conventional analgesics that can effectively treat neuropathic pain with a satisfactory outcome. Due to the limitation of therapeutic efficacy, the searching for novel effective remedies in the management of neuropathic pain is required. Approach: … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 8 · 18 Jun 2012 · 17,239 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Alternative Graph Cut Algorithm for Morphological Edge DetectionP. RadhakrishnanProblem statement: Image analysis has some basic importance of edge detection. Characterize the object boundaries are helpful for object segmentation, registration and identification in a scene. There are many methods for edge detection, but it can be identified by two major methods, search-based and zero-crossing based. Approach: Proposed method tries to follow searching the edge points by applying graph cuts … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 7 · 29 May 2012 · 6,897 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHigh-Order Interactions in Rheumatoid Arthritis Detected by Bayesian Method using Genome-Wide Association Studies DataJing Zhang, Zheyang Wu, Chao Gao, Michael Q. ZhangProblem statement: In order to reveal the missing genetic component of Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) susceptibility, we carried out a genome-wide high-order epistatic interaction study for RA. Approach: A powerful Bayesian strategy was applied to analyze the data of Genome-Wide Association Studies (GWAS) from the Welcome Trust Case Control Consortium (WTCCC), where 319 high-order interactions were found across the whole genome … …Current Research in Medicine, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 30 Mar 2012 · 8,379 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSingle Step Optimal Block Matched Motion Estimation with Motion Vectors Having Arbitrary Pixel PrecisionsCharlotte Yuk-Fan Ho, Bingo Wing-Kuen Ling, Saverio Giovanni Blasi et al.Problem statement: This study derives the optimal motion vector with arbitrary pixel precisions in a single step. Approach: A non-linear block matched motion model was proposed. Based on the proposed non-linear block matched motion model, the optimal motion vector which minimizes the mean square error was solved analytically in a single step via a gradient approach. Results: The mean square … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 12 Jan 2012 · 8,201 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMedical Image Classification Using Genetic Optimized Elman NetworkT. Baranidharan, D. K. GhoshProblem statement: Advancements in the internet and digital images have resulted in a huge database of images. Most of the current search engines found in the web depends only on images that can be retrieved using metadata, which generates a lot of unwanted results in the results got. Content-Based Image Retrieval (CBIR) system is the utilization of computer vision techniques … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 24 Nov 2011 · 7,717 accessesView PDFCite
