Multi-class weather classification is a fundamental and significant technique which has many potential applications, such as video surveillance and intelligent transportation. However, it is a challenging task due to the diversity of weather and lack of discriminate feature. Most existing weather classification methods only consider two-class weather conditions such as sunny-rainy or sunny-clou...

A simple microwave-assisted (MWI) wet chemical route to synthesize pure anatase phase titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanoparticles (NPs) is reported here using titanium tetrachloride (TiCl4) as starting material. The as-prepared TiO2 NPs were characterized by electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, UV/visible absorption spectroscopy, and infrared and Raman spectroscopic techniques. Further modificatio...

AbstractPurpose – The study aims to determine the effect of Islamic financial inclusion using 3 (three) dimensions, namely accessibility, availability, and use (usage banking services) in Indonesia on concept welfare which includes 5 (five) elements: protection (hifz) religion (din), mind ('aql), soul (nafs), offspring (nasl), property (mal).Methodology - components are represented by several v...

The population genetic structure of 211 samples Loliolus (Nipponololigo) beka, which were selected from across seven geographic localities—in the Bohai Sea, Yellow Sea and East China Sea—were analyzed using mitochondrial COI 16S rRNA gene markers. Phylogenetic trees a haplotype network both showed that L. (N.) beka localities genetically distinct, forming two homogeneous lineages: Lineage A B. ...

D. Dieks has proposed a semantical rule which he claims yields a realistic interpretation of the formalism of quantum mechanics without the projection postulate. I argue that his proposal is unacceptable because it violates a natural requirement of psychophysical parallelism. His "semantical rule" is not an acceptable interpretive rule because it does not identify structures in the theory with ...

This work presents a systematic evaluation of the effectiveness an air-operated microwave imaging (MWI) system for detection arbitrarily oriented thin fractures in superficial bones, like tibia. includes proposal new compact, portable setup where single Vivaldi antenna performs semi-cylindrical scan limb. The is operated monostatic radar mode, near skin but without contact, thus ensuring hygien...

Wastewater sources contain enormous amounts of nutrients for plant growth. This study aimed to define the metal accumulation in goosefoot (Chenopodium album L.) wastewater use agricultural irrigation and evaluate risks this human health. The present research was performed field conditions Khushab, Pakistan. Cd, Cu, Cr, Fe, Zn, Ni, Mn concentrations were determined with analysis using Atomic Abs...

AIMS To evaluate occupational exposure to toxic pollutants at municipal waste incinerators (MWIs). METHODS Twenty nine male subjects working near the furnaces in two MWIs, and 17 subjects not occupationally exposed to combustion generated pollutants were studied. Individual air samples were taken throughout the shift; urine samples were collected before and after. Stationary air samples were ...
