In this paper, utilization of clustering algorithms for data fusion in decision level is proposed. The results of automatic isolated word recognition, which are derived from speech spectrograph and Linear Predictive Coding (LPC) analysis, are combined with each other by using fuzzy clustering algorithms, especially fuzzy k-means and fuzzy vector quantization. Experimental results show that the ...

Three strains of facultatively anaerobic thermotolerant and moderately halophilic bacteria were isolated from two Jordanian hot spring locations. The novel Bacillus strains were short rods, Gram-positive, motile and spore formers. The strains were capable of anaerobic (but not aerobic) growth at 63C, moderately halophilic, able to grow at NaCl concentration range of 12 15 % and at temperatures ...

يقدّم البحث قــراءة مـعرفـيّة لأحـد أهـم الأسـاطـير اليونانيّة وهي أسطورة أورفيوس، وطريقة توظيفها داخل البناء الشعريّ للقصيدة العربيّة. لقد تنوّع توظيف هذه الأسطورة بين الشعراء، لكن يمكن أن يعدّ بدر شاكر السياب من الشعراء الذين قدّموا أورفيوس في صورتها الروحانية الدينيّة، وليس تكوينها الأسطوريّ الحكائي، كانت قصيدة "دار جدّي" للسياب منجزًا معرفيًا لتوظيف خلال خطابها الروحانيّ. سيعرض اندماج بناء القصيدة وفق مع...

Face recognition is important in human identification. The biological recognition technique acts as a good method and broad applications in security areas. This work presents a method to improve the face recognition accuracy using a combination of Principal Component Analysis (PCA), and Wavelet Transform. Wavelet Transform is used to decompose the input image with different levels and rearrange...
