Recently a new method for obtaining restriction maps was developed by David Schwartz at NYU. Using this method restriction maps are created from uorescent images of individual molecules obtained using a microscope. For every individual observed molecule, image processing methods are used to generate a list of the approximate locations of the sites where the molecule is cut by the restriction en...

The purpose of this paper is to advocate and encourage the application of fuzzy-neuro algorithms in the risk assessment of Distributed Real-Time (DRT) systems, where object-oriented and formal techniques by means of UML-SDL models are used as knowledge (data) providers to the fuzzy-neuro analyser. The paper includes an introductory description of DRT systems and the presentation of the UML and ...

We introduce an effective and simple noise-robust feature processing technique which achieves very good results on the Aurora noisy-digits database. This technique does not require knowledge of the noise type and level. Also, it does not require any increase in modeling parameters. It performs well both on matched and mis-matched training and testing environments. In comparison to the Aurora ba...

Work-related musculoskeletal disorders (WMSDs) are debilitating for workers and costly for employers. Existing exposure assessment tools were modified for rapid job physical exposure and company organizational exposure assessment. These were augmented with injured worker interviews to "put the meet on the bones" in characterizing risk. These risk assessments are conducted in all industry sectors.

Traditional medicines are effective but the standardization of Ayurvedic formulations is essential in order to assess the quality of drugs, based on the concentration of their active principles. Department of AYUSH has given preliminary guidelines for standardizing these conventional formulations, for uniformity of batches in production of Ayurvedic formulation and it is necessary to develop me...
