Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Framework for Design of Intelligent Simulation EnvironmentAli Azadeh, Farid GhaderiThis study describes a framework for design and development of intelligent simulation environment. The intelligent simulation environment prescribes an integrated rule-based approach to simulate and optimize a manufacturing system. An intelligent simulation model is a computer program capable of improving its performance by referring to production constraints, system's limitations and desired targets. It is a goal oriented, flexible and integrated … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2006 · 6,706 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDesign of a Neural Networks Classifier for Face DetectionF. Smach, M. Atri, J. Mitéran, M. AbidFace detection and recognition has many applications in a variety of fields such as security system, videoconferencing and identification. Face classification is currently implemented in software. A hardware implementation allows real-time processing, but has higher cost and time to-market. The objective of this work was to implement a classifier based on neural networks MLP (Multi-layer Perception) for face detection. The … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2006 · 6,887 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractReal-Time Audio Retrieval Method and Automatic Commercial Detecting SystemGuibin Zheng, Jiqing HanThis study presents a robust audio retrieval method and discusses its control strategy. In the method, the retrieval target is divided into short segments, each segment is searched respectively and a retrieval window is used to maintain a list of segments that can be searched simultaneously. The method can quickly detect and locate known sound in real-time audio stream, multimedia … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2006 · 6,873 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNa,K-ATPase α Subunit-like Immunoreactive Proteins in Human Body FluidsJeng-Hsiung F. PengNa,K-ATPase was recently considered a target for breast cancer treatment since its potent inhibitors ouabain and related digitalis compounds that were reported circulating in body fluids before, were found to possess potent anti-breast cancer activity. Based on this finding, it is hypothesized that Na,K-ATPase derivatives could be circulating in the body and potential candidate biomarkers for early disease detection. Western … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2006 · 6,893 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Effect of an Organic Pesticide on Mortality and Learning in Africanized Honey Bees (Apis mellifera L.) in BrasilCharles I. Abramson, Jordan B. Singleton, Maritza K. Wilson et al.Seven experiments were conducted. First, the influence of the consumption of different concentrations of the organic pesticide Bioganic® on mortality was assessed at 11 different time intervals in Africanized honey bees (Apis mellifera L.) as was direct application of the pesticide to the abdomen. Results indicated that the pesticide was not lethal to bees regardless of concentration at any intervals … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2006 · 6,976 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Method for Social Scientists to Adapt Instruments From One Culture to Another: The Case of the Job Descriptive IndexRamzi NasserThis study outlined an adaptation procedure for the Job Descriptive Index Subscale of "type of work". The cross-translation or committee translation procedure asks two or more translators to translate a text from source to target language, and then an expert assesses the validity of these translations. Empirically, this method has three or more translators translate the instrument from English to … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2005 · 7,357 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRiemann Estimation for Replicated Environmental Sampling DesignsLucio Barabesi, Marzia marcheselliIn many environmental surveys the population under study is made up of biological units scattered over a planar region. A variable is considered on each unit and the target parameter generally turns out to be the population total of the variable. In order to estimate the population total, field scientists commonly replicate a suitable design on the study region. Replicated … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2005 · 6,059 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPharmacodynamic Comparison of the Carbapenems Against E. coli and Klebsiella spp. Containing Extended spectrum β-lactamasesKathryn J. Eagye, Joseph L. Kuti, David P. NicolauCarbapenems are the treatment of choice for extended-spectrum β-lactamases (ESBLs). Ertapenem is a new member of the carbapenem class, and is often grouped with imipenem and meropenem as a recommended treatment for ESBLs. However, new in vitro data question ertapenem’s inclusion as a first line treatment for these bacteria, suggesting that ertapenem has a lower likelihood of obtaining appropriate pharmacodynamic … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2005 · 6,890 accessesView PDFCite
