Stereo cameras are the basic tools used to obtain stereoscopic image pairs, which can lead to truly great image quality. However, some inappropriate shooting conditions may cause discomfort while viewing stereo images. It is therefore considerably necessary to establish the perceptual criteria that can be used to evaluate the shooting quality of stereo cameras. This article proposes objective q...

a rahalt-chromium (Co-Cr) alloy using a centrifugal shooting type polishing machine. In tha present work, we examined the effects of the texture of polishing particle and polishing time on the surface roughness of Co-Cr alloy cast specimens. Nine differcnt textures of polishing par'ticle were investigated wiLh respect to core material and paTticle abrasiveness: three (lifferent elastic body cer...

This paper describes statistical techniques used for modelling transliteration systems between the scripts of Punjabi language. Punjabi is one of the unique languages, which are written in more than one script. In India, Punjabi is written in Gurmukhi script, while in Pakistan it is written in Shahmukhi (Perso-Arabic) script. Shahmukhi script has its origin in the ancient Phoenician script wher...

Today, handwritten script recognition is challenging part in the computer science. It is important to know a script used in writing. Script recognitions have many important applications like automatic transcription of multilingual documents, searching document image, script sorting. Proposed work emphasis on the “block level technique” where script recognition recognizes the script of the given...

This work mainly focuses on the influence from switches of shooting angles in videos during the cognitive processing in the human brain. In the experiment we used the videos with switches of shooting angles as materials and compared the ERPs elicited by the switch frames and the non-switch frames in the videos, it was found that when subjects were asked to pay attention to the video contents, t...

A novel method based on Genetic Algorithm to solve the boundary value problems (BVPs) of the Falkner–Skan equation over a semi-infinite interval has been presented. In our approach, we use the free boundary formulation to truncate the semi-infinite interval into a finite one. Then we use the shooting method based on Genetic Algorithm to transform the BVP into initial value problems (IVPs). Gene...

In this article we propose a shooting algorithm for a class of optimal control problems for which all control variables appear linearly. The shooting system has, in the general case, more equations than unknowns and the Gauss-Newton method is used to compute a zero of the shooting function. This shooting algorithm is locally quadratically convergent if the derivative of the shooting function is...

BACKGROUND Lead exposure constitutes a major public health concern globally. Relative to developed nations, lead exposure is understudied and poorly addressed in Africa, and there is a dearth of information available to inform lead poisoning prevention strategies, even in high-risk groups such as workers in shooting ranges who are potentially exposed to lead daily. METHODS Two workers at a pr...

Shooting a firearm involves a complex series of cognitive abilities. For example, locating an item or a person of interest requires visual search, and firing the weapon (or withholding a trigger squeeze) involves response execution (or inhibition). The present study used a simulated shooting environment to establish a relationship between a particular cognitive ability and a critical shooting e...
