Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleHarmonic Mean Projection Shape Transform for Leaf ClassificationSophia Jamila Zahra, Riza Sulaiman, Seyed M.M. Kahaki, Anton Satria PrabuwonoShape feature extraction has emerged as an important part of computer vision and image processing applications. Identification of shape objects in huge data based on shape similarity still remains a challenging problem due to the similarity of the shapes and existing of classes with similar contour information. This paper presents to investigate the shape analysis for plant leaf classification by … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 16, Issue 9 · 13 Sep 2020 · 6,854 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleDesign and Experimental Investigation of a Novel Solar Collector with a W-Shape CoverEdoun Marcel, Djimasra Bonheur, Kuitche Alexis, Zeghmati BelkacemIn the current study, we developed and tested a new type of solar collector named W-shape solar collector. It is a solar collector with single air pass between the transparent cover and the absorber. The cover has double glass whereby the upper glass is flat and the lower glass is w-shape. The absorber is also W-shape. This combination gave rise … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 3 · 19 Sep 2019 · 7,629 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleAnalytical Study of Bending Behavior for Concrete Beams with T-Shaped Cross Section using Composite and Steel BarsSeyedeh Zahra Hosseini Ghaziyani, Seyedamin Mostafavian, Meysam Azizpour ChiraniTodays, instead of steel reinforcements, Fiber Reinforced Polymer (FRP) rebars have been using in the reinforced concrete structures. By consideration of different strain-stress behavior between steel and composite material, it is necessary to evaluate the difference of these two materials inside of RC beams. In this research, twelve reinforced concrete T-shape beams were modeled using ABAQUS finite element software. Six … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 2 Jun 2018 · 8,535 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleCyclic Instability of Shape-Memory Alloys in Seismic Isolation SystemsFilipe Amarante dos Santos, Corneliu Cismasiu, Francisco Braz FernandesShape-memory alloys are being progressively introduced as kernel components in seismic retrofitting devices for civil engineering structures. In order to control the instability associated with the first mechanical cycles, a training procedure is usually implemented, which stabilizes the superelastic behavior of the alloy. This paper addresses the characterization of the cyclic behavior of an austenitic NiTi alloy with emphasis on … …International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 7 Jan 2018 · 6,854 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleSHAPE RETRIEVAL THROUGH MAHALANOBIS DISTANCE WITH SHORTEST AUGMENTING PATH ALGORITHMS. Muruganathan, N. Devarajan, D. Chitra, T. ManigandanShape matching and object recognition plays an vital role in the computer vision. The shape matching is difficult in case of the real world images like mpeg database images since the real world images has the internal and external contours. The Mahalanobis distance based shape context approach is proposed to measure similarity between shapes and exploit it for shape retrieval. … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 10, Issue 4 · 3 Dec 2013 · 6,856 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleShape Retrieval through Angular Distance with Shortest Augmenting Path AlgorithmD. Chitra, N. Devarajan, T. ManigandanProblem statement: The shape of an object is very important in object recognition. Shape matching is a challenging problem, especially when articulation and deformation of a part occurs. These variations may be insignificant for human recognition but often cause a matching algorithm to give results that are inconsistent with our perception. Approach: We proposed a customized approach to measure similarity … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 12 · 21 Oct 2011 · 6,817 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleHandwritten Characters Extraction from Form Based on Line Shape CharacteristicsAli Qusay Al-Faris, Dzulkifli Mohamad, Umi Kalthum Ngah, Nor Ashidi Mat IsaProblem statement: Data entry form is a convenient and successful tool for information collection by filling in the sheets using pen and handwriting. One of the most important fields in these forms is the data filled boxes. Extracting the handwriting from the data entry forms is important for many purposes such as in documenting and archiving. The extraction process is … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 12 · 15 Oct 2011 · 7,934 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleThe Role of Electrical Pulse Shapes in Electrical and Optical Chromatic Dispersion CompensationMohammad Syuhaimi Ab-Rahman, Majid MoghaddasiProblem statement: The performance of the optical network is highly dependent to Chromatic Dispersion (CD). CD has been a big issue when higher bitrate or longer distance is desired. Many methods have been represented to mitigate or eliminate this phenomenon. A wide range of optical and electrical compensation has been investigated. Approach: In this study we evaluate the efficiency of … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 12 · 25 Oct 2010 · 6,584 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleRetrieval of Similar Shapes Under Affine Transform Using Affine Length ParameterizationA. Lakehal, O. El Beqqali, O. Ait ZemzamiProblem statement: In this study, a new descriptor for shape retrieval under affine transformations had been proposed; the affine length parameterization was used in this approach. Approach: The zero crossing of affine curvature was used to extract a descriptor of shapes in database. For each two successive zero crossing points we extract two parameters: the first parameter was a maximal … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 10 · 30 Aug 2010 · 7,255 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleError Free Iterative Morphological Decomposition Algorithm for Shape RepresentationV. Vijaya Kumar, A. Srikrishna, G. Hemantha KumarProblem statement: A generalized skeleton transform allows a shape to be represented as a collection of modestly overlapped octagonal shape parts. One problem with several generalized Morphological skeleton transforms is that they generate noise after decomposition. The noise rate may not be effective for ordinary images; however this effect will be more when applied on printed or handwritten characters. Approach: … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2009 · 7,517 accessesView PDFCite
