Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstract2D Object Description with Discrete SegmentsNbhan D. Salih, David C.L. Ngo, Hakim Mellah2D object shape description has gained considerable attention in field of content-based image retrieval (CBIR) and in various applications that concerned with the shapes of objects. Object shape descriptors in the literature are commonly classified into two forms: contour-based and region-based. In this paper we present our contour-based shape representation and description, where the object shape is represented and describe … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 2, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2006 · 6,540 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAsymptotic Hyperstability of Dynamic Systems with Point DelaysM. De la SenIt is proved that a linear time-invariant system with internal point delays is asymptotically hyperstable independent of the delays if an associate delay-free system is asymptotically hyperstable and the delayed dynamics are sufficiently small. …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2005 · 6,697 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOmni-Zernike Algorithm for Template Matching in Catadioptric SystemAnisse Khald, Amina Radgui, Mohammed RzizaImage descriptor have been widely applied in many computer visions and image understanding applications including pattern recognition, robotic, video surveillance, camera calibration and image retrieval, etc. Invariants features are robust when apply several transformations of photometry (illumination, blur, noise, JPEG compression) and transformations of geometry (scaling, rotation, translation and viewpoint change). In this study, we present representation and matching region … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 16, Issue 12 · 30 Dec 2020 · 6,501 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFeature Extraction and Classification of Blood Cells Using Artificial Neural NetworkMagudeeswaran Veluchamy, Karthikeyan Perumal, Thirumurugan PonuchamyProblem statement: One method of evaluating the clinical status is counting of cell types based on features that it contains. There is a need for a rapid, reproducible method, superior to human inspection and for the classification of cells. For solving these problems, quantitative digital-image analysis is applied and a novel method for classifications of affected blood cells from normal … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 5 · 18 Feb 2012 · 8,156 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLower-Dimensional Feature Sets for Template-Based Motion Recognition ApproachesMd. Atiqur Rahman Ahad, J. Tan, H. Kim, S. IshikawaProblem statement: In template-based motion recognition approaches, feature sets are computed from the template for classification. Hu invariants are widely employed for this purpose since its inception. However, development of lower-dimensional feature vector sets is required for faster computation along with robust recognition. The concept of reduced size of Hu moment is really interesting. From its inception, seven higher orders … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2010 · 7,744 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCrack Analysis of Concrete Arch Dams Using Micro-Planes Damage Based Constitutive RelationsM. Labibzadeh, S.A. SadrnejadAmong the various numerical simulating models of plane concrete, the micro-planes models have an excellent position. These models are not as complicated as microscopic models such as discrete particles models and do not have the shortcomings of macroscopic models based on the stress or strain invariants. The object of this study is the application of author's recently developed micro-planes damage … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2007 · 6,978 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFabric Behavior of Sand in Post-liquefactionSeyed Amirodin SadrnejadAn anisotropic plasticity model for post-liquefaction of the undrained behavior of sand is presented. The model incorporates the critical/steady state concept that postulates the existence of a state where sand continuously deforms at a certain constant effective stress depending two main parameters of both initial bulk parameters (void ratio or relative density) and the stress level (mean stress). The local … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2005 · 6,409 accessesView PDFCite
