This research features a new method for skin color segmentation using a 2D plane in the RGB color space. The RGB color values of the input color image do not need to be converted into HSI or YIQ color coordinates that have popularly been used for color segmentation. We have observed an important fact that skin colors in the RGB color space are approximately distributed in a linear fashion. Base...

This paper provides a comprehensive description of the current literature on data fusion, with an emphasis Information Quality (IQ) and performance evaluation. review highlights recent studies that reveal existing gaps, need to find synergy between fusion IQ, several research issues, challenges pitfalls in this field. First, main models, frameworks, architectures, algorithms, solutions, problem...

2-Amino-3-methylimidazo[4,5-f]quinoline (IQ) metabolism was evaluated in mouse to better understand its tumorigenicity. Urinary metabolites from mice orally administered 40 mg/kg [(14)C]IQ were compared with those from similarly treated rats. The recovery of radioactivity was significantly greater in mouse urine. The relative proportion of metabolites was significantly different, and a new rode...

A meta-analysis of research on the relationship between inspection time (IT) and intelligence (IQ) was performed to: (1) determine whether a nonzero relationship between IT and IQ exists, (2) estimate the size of this relationship if it exists, and (3) test whether IT is ontogenetically related to g. Separate meta-analyses were initially conducted for results of studies using measures of genera...

Direct estimates of IQ heritability based on a single family relationship such as adopted-apart relatives are often 50% greater than indirect estimates that rely on differences in correlations such as the classical twin method or nonadoptive-adoptive comparisons. Factors such as nonadditive genetic variance, assortative mating, selective placement, measurement error, age differences, and genoty...
