AAne moment invariants (AMIs) have been derived recently by Flusser and Suk (1992). In this paper, the AMIs are used as the features for recognition of handwritten characters independent on their size, slant and other variations. A comparison with classical moment invariants is also given.

Fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) rods are advanced composite materials with high strength, light weight, non-corrosive properties, and superior durability properties. Under severe environmental conditions, for concrete structures, the use of glass-fiber-reinforced (GFRP) is a cost-effective alternative to traditional steel reinforcement. This study compared flexural behavior an OPC slab high-volu...

Abstract We introduce a new generalized family of nonnegative continuous distributions by adding two extra parameters to lifetime distribution, called the baseline twice compounding power series distribution. The family, series-power has serial arrangement parallel structures, which extends Marshall and Olkin structure. Four special models are discussed. A mathematical treatment is provided, in...

Application of the method of moments for the parametric distribution is common in the construction of a suitable parametric distribution. However, moment method of parameter estimation does not produce good results. An alternative approach when constructing an appropriate parametric distribution for the considered data file is to use the so-called order statistics. This paper deals with the use...
