Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleThe Grammaticalization of the Spanish Complement-taking Verb without a ComplementizerJiyoung YoonThis study examines authentic data samples taken from the Corpus de Referencia del Español Actual (CREA) in order to uncover any semantic trends that can be commonly observed in verbs taking a sentential complement without the complementizer que in Spanish. In doing so, special attention is given to the grammaticalization process that can account for epistemic fragments in which the … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 3 · 12 Sep 2015 · 8,770 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleQuarter-Sweep Projected Modified Gauss-Seidel Algorithm Applied to Linear Complementarity ProblemW. S. Koh, J. Sulaiman, R. MailProblem statement: Modified Gauss-Seidel (MGS) was developed in order to improve the convergence rate of classical iterative method in solving linear system. In solving linear system iteratively, it takes longer time when many computational points involved. It is known that by applying quarter-sweep iteration scheme, it can decrease the computational operations without altering the accuracy. In this study, we investigated … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2010 · 7,399 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleLocal Features Supported by the Complement Feature for Image SegmentationSalah AmeerAn Eigen formulation is proposed for image thresholding/segmentation. A vector composed of local features, normalized intensity of each pixel and that of the neighboring pixels, is used to represent each pixel. A “complement” component is appended to this vector to produce a “unit” vector. The auto-correlation matrix is computed for each pixel in the image using this unit vector. The … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 3 · 7 Jul 2020 · 6,602 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleImage Thresholding Using the Complement FeatureSalah AmeerA new feature (the complement feature) is proposed in an Eigen formulations for performing global image thresholding. The goal is to find an intensity or gray-level value below which is the background while above it is the foreground (object). Each pixel in the image is represented by a (2D) unit vector where the x-component is the normalized (to [0,1] or … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 2 · 8 Jun 2020 · 6,505 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleComplement Genes in the Asterids Comparisons with the Echinids (Echinoderma)Michel LeclercThe axial organ of the sea star Asterias rubens (Asterid) is a primitive immune organ. The B-like cells, when stimulated by various antigens, produce antibody substances correlating with ig kappa genes. On the other hand, component complement genes were found. For each component, one or several contigs were analysed. It is said that Asterias forbesi, another sea-star, in earlier results, … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 26 Feb 2013 · 7,472 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleA Novel High Stop Band All Complementary MOSFET Switched-Capacitor FilterMoussa Abdallah, Ismail NabhanProblem statement: Filters are widely used in various applications including communications, electronics and biomedical engineering. The performance and size of the filter is of interest especially in chip implementation. A switched-capacitor low-pass filter was designed and simulated using a 0.18 μm 1P6M CMOS technology. Approach: This circuit design offered obvious advantages in increasing the stopband attenuation, reducing passband ripple and … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2009 · 7,863 accessesView PDFCite
