Study the content of images is considered an important topic in which reasonable and accurate analysis of images are generated. Recently image analysis becomes a vital field because of huge number of images transferred via transmission media in our daily life. These crowded media with images lead to highlight in research area of image analysis.…

Rotary cutting of electrical steel laminations is a novel, promising alternative in the processing of electrical steel strip with enormous economical and technical potentials. This paper is an extension of work originally presented on the 6th International Electric Drives Production Conference (E|DPC) in Nuremberg, Germany 2016. The scope of this paper includes a theoretical description…

There is a growing interest in using radio frequency in imaging for problem solving in situational awareness, surveillance, search and rescue operations, and screening for security. This has been fetched from recent development in addition to innovative technologies in microwave radar imaging applications. Despite the fact that no new phenomenology is exposed in this field,…

A company’s ability to find the most profitable technology is based on a precise forecast of achievement potential. Technology Management (TM) uses forecasting models to analyse future potentials, e.g. the Gartner Hype Cycle, Arthur D. Little’s technology lifecycle or McKinsey’s S-curve model. All these methods are useful for qualitative analysis in the planning of strategic…

In this paper considered the movement of multi-agent system that consists of several UAVs that carry out monitoring ground surface. The multi-agent system includes a lead agent and several agents-members of the group. The motion of this system occurs along a trajectory, which is determined by the initial conditions, its mathematical model and obstacles on…

In this paper, a spatial modulation (SM) which provides no synchronization between the transmitting antennas and avoids inter-channel interference (ICI) at the receiver input while maintaining high spectral efficiency is applied to filtered-orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (F-OFDM) transmission. The SM technique maps a block of information bits into two information carrying units, namely, a symbol…

The discussed system in this paper uses the Kinect’s 3D input (acquired through IR projector and Camera) to detect gestures and then based on these gestures perform certain tasks, and display certain results on an output screen. The programming language used here is the Processing open source software and a database was implemented to manage…

This paper proposes a method for estimating the spectral reflectance of Neugebauer primaries or eight basic colors when the spectral reflectance data of several colors are given. The proposed method is based on Neugebauer model, which expresses an arbitrary color as a weighted average of Neugebauer primaries, and its sparse version called sparse Neugebauer model.…

Data visualization is an effective tool for communicating the results of opinion surveys, epidemiological studies, statistics on consumer habits, etc. The graphical representation of data usually assists human information processing by reducing demands on attention, working memory, and long-term memory. It allows, among other things, a faster reading of the information (by acting on the…

The increase of textual information published in Arabic language on the internet, public libraries and administrations requires implementing effective techniques for the extraction of relevant information contained in large corpus of texts. The purpose of indexing is to create a document representation that easily find and identify the relevant information in a set of documents.…

In the recent years LepidaSpa created Sensornet platform for the control of the Emilia-Romagna territory managing heterogeneous environmental sensor networks distributed all over the region. LepidaSpa decided to integrate into Sensornet a brand-new family of sensors measuring indoor environmental parameters inside public buildings, in order to monitor energy consumption on one hand and workers’ wellbeing…

High frequency planar transformer is a new type of transformer that operates at high frequency. Its significance is proved through its miniaturised features, high power density and other performances. The design of planar transformer needs to consider several fundamental factors, including core material, dimension of layers and winding pattern. As the volume decreases, extra attentions…

Platelet transfusions are vital for the prevention of fatal hemorrhage. Therefore, a stable inventory of platelets is required for an efficient and effective delivery of services in all the hospitals and medical centers. However, over the past decades, the requirement for platelets seems to be continuously increasing, while the number of potential donors is decreasing.…

This paper presents a developed low cost system for human gait analysis. Two web cameras placed in opposite sides of a treadmill are used to acquire images of a person walking at different speeds on a treadmill, carrying a set of passive marks located at strategic places of its body. The treadmill also has passive…

The host immune system is a key player in anticancer therapy response and resistance. Although the impact of host immune response in the ‘war against cancer’ has been studied and it has been the basis for immunotherapy, understanding of its role in attenuating the action of conventional anticancer therapies is an area that has not…

Using smart parking systems has become very important, and particularly so for metropolitan areas, because of the benefits for drivers in many aspects, such as time, frustration, stress, and anger, in addition to the increased consumption of fuel while searching for a vacant parking space. This paper proposes a review of recent advances in sensing…

This paper discusses a step climbing strategy using a wheelchair and a teleoperated care robot that avoids collisions between the wheelchair’s front wheels and the step wall. In our method, the two vehicles are connected and use the velocity difference between them to climb steps. Since the wheelchair’s front wheels, or another part of the…

Reliable, available and accurate localization of people and vehicles is one crucial requirement for intelligent transportation systems (ITSs). This has led to a variety of technical approaches in recent years. Towards an exact positioning via Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSSs) the visibility of satellites is an important factor. In this paper, we review the literature…

In order to increase the diagnosis accuracy of schizophrenia (SCZ) disease, it is essential to comprehensively employ complementary information from multiple types of data. It is well known that a network is a general method for analyzing relationships between patients, with its nodes representing patients and its edges showing relationships between them. In this study,…

In the first journal, I made this attempt to analyze things that affect the achievement of students in each school of course vary. Because students are one of the goals of achieving the goals of successful educational organizations. The mental influence of students’ emotions and behaviors themselves in relation to learning performance. Fuzzy logic can…

Cryptography is still developing today. Classical cryptography is still in great demand for research and development. Some of them are Vigenere Cipher and One Time Pad (OTP) Algorithm. Vigenere Cipher is known as the alphabet table used to encrypt messages. While OTP is often used because it is still difficult to solve. Currently there are…

Classical cryptography is a way of disguising the news done by the people when there was no computer. The goal is to protect information by way of encoding. This paper describes a modification of classical algorithms to make cryptanalis difficult to steal undisclosed messages. There are three types of classical algorithms that are combined affine…

Vigenere Cipher is one of the classic cryptographic algorithms and included into symmetric key cryptography algorithm, where to encryption and decryption process use the same key. Vigenere Cipher has the disadvantage that if key length is not equal to the length of the plaintext, then the key will be repeated until equal to the plaintext…

Jaw cyst is one of the most common pathology observed in the field of dentistry. Early detection of the cystic lesion will help the surgeons to take appropriate therapeutic measures after a thorough diagnostic procedure. One of the challenging task for surgeons is to differentiate the cysts from the other pathologies. The appearance of these…
