This paper analyzes the effect of histogram equalization on the wavelet based compression techniques. Image compression is reducing the size of an image using one of the encoding techniques. Encoding helps in saving disk space by representing the same data in lesser number of bytes. Histogram is a graphical representation of intensity distribution of an image. It expresses the number of pixel v...

In this paper, we present the application of the neural network for the identification of Reusable Software modules in Oriented Software System. Metrics are used for the structural analysis of the different procedures. The values of Metrics will become the input dataset for the neural network systems and Fuzzy Systems. Training Algorithm based on Neural Network and fuzzy clustering are experime...

Several ANN models were developed to prediction of monthly precipitation data in Mashhad synoptic station. From the total 636 monthly precipitation data (from 1958 to 2008), 580 data has been used for training networks and the rest selected randomly has been used for validation of the models. To extract the precipitation dynamic of this station by ANN, a new approach of three-layer feed-forward...

Fuzzy Counter Propagation Neural Network (FCPN) controller design is developed, for a class of nonlinear dynamical systems. In this process, the weight connecting between the instar and outstar, that is, input-hidden and hidden-output layer, respectively, is adjusted by using Fuzzy Competitive Learning (FCL). FCL paradigm adopts the principle of learning, which is used to calculate Best Matched...

In this work, we present a comparison between two techniques of image compression. In the first case, the image is divided in blocks which are collected according to zig-zag scan. In the second one, we apply the Fast Cosine Transform to the image, and then the transformed image is divided in blocks which are collected according to zig-zag scan too. Later, in both cases, the Karhunen-Loève trans...

Rainfall is considered as one of the major components of the hydrological process; it takes significant part in evaluating drought and flooding events. Therefore, it is important to have an accurate model for rainfall prediction. Recently, several data-driven modeling approaches have been investigated to perform such forecasting tasks as multilayer perceptron neural networks (MLP-NN). In fact, ...

In medical image processing, noise removal is the challenging task. Removal of noise using the existing methods like Median Filter (MF), Center Weighted Median Filter (CWMF), Rank Condition Rank Selection Filter (RCRSF) and SMF Selective Median Filter (SMF) provides satisfactory results. In this paper, we have made improvements in SMF by providing the adaptive thresholding concept and called as...

This paper deals with the application of a novel neural network technique, support vector machine (SVM), in !nancial time series forecasting. The objective of this paper is to examine the feasibility of SVM in !nancial time series forecasting by comparing it with a multi-layer back-propagation (BP) neural network. Five real futures contracts that are collated from the Chicago Mercantile Market ...

Developing reliable estimates of streamflow prediction are crucial for water resources management and flood forecasting purposes. The objectives of this study are to investigate the potential of support vector machines (SVM) model for streamflow forecasting at ungaged sites, and to compare its performance with other statistical method of multiple linear regression (MLR). Three quantitative stan...
