There is a significant need to extract and recognise the semantically-important text contained in images on Web pages. This paper proposes a new approach to text extraction from this special class of images. The method attempts to emulate closer than before the way humans perceive colour differences in order to differentiate between text and background regions. Pixels of similar colour (as huma...

We address the problem of automatically reconstructing m-manifolds of unknown topology from unorganized points in metric p-spaces obtained from a noisy measurement process. The point set is first approximated by a collection of oriented primitive fuzzy sets over a range of resolutions. Hierarchical multiresolution representation is then computed based on the relation of relative containment def...

as there is a rapid growth both in the number of power consumers and also the limitations energy resources, it is clearly accepted that the old version of power grid must change into smart grid from head to toe. one of the most important advantages of smart grid which makes it much more exclusive rather than other typical systems is the two-way connectivity between the utility and the costumers...

Background: Early diagnosis of patients in the early stages of Alzheimer's, known as mild cognitive impairment, is of great importance in the treatment of this disease. If a patient can be diagnosed at this stage, it is possible to treat or delay Alzheimer's disease. Resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) is very common in the process of diagnosing Alzheimer's disease. In th...

let $g=(v,e)$ be a connected graph. the eccentric connectivity index of $g$, $xi^{c}(g)$, is defined as $xi^{c}(g)=sum_{vin v(g)}deg(v)ec(v)$, where $deg(v)$ is the degree of a vertex $v$ and $ec(v)$ is its eccentricity. the eccentric distance sum of $g$ is defined as $xi^{d}(g)=sum_{vin v(g)}ec(v)d(v)$, where $d(v)=sum_{uin v(g)}d_{g}(u,v)$ and $d_{g}(u,v)$ is the distance between $u$ and $v$ ...

In the above article [1] , to track loss of consciousness (LOC) induced by general anesthesia (GA), we first developed multi-channel cross fuzzy entropy method construct time- varying networks, whose temporal fluctuations were then explored and quantitatively evaluat...

if we think of the graph as modeling a network, the vulnerability measure the resistance of the network to disruption of operation after the failure of certain stations or communication links. many graph theoretical parameters have been used to describe the vulnerability of communication networks, including connectivity, integrity, toughness, binding number and tenacity.in this paper we discuss...

Finding the precise and accurate location of devices on road networks is challenging in remote areas with poor internet connectivity Global Positioning System coverage. Navigation applications that completely depend reference spatial data for identification mapping do not perform well case frequent disconnection. These sources have many associated challenges like large size, errors data, restri...

E-learning has transformed the healthcare education system by providing professionals with training and development opportunities, regardless of their location. However, in remote or rural areas face challenges such as limited access to educational resources, lack reliable internet connectivity, geographical isolation, availability specialized programs instructors. These hinder e-learning oppor...
