22 Abstract—Project-Based Learning (PBL) has become a necessity for the Moroccan higher education reform. PBL is an approach that transforms teaching from "teachers telling" to "students doing". However, implementing PBLs brings new challenges to higher education. In this paper, we present a set of Technology-enhanced Learning environments integrating the needed aspects in a synergetic way to f...

Derived from semi-supervised learning and active learning approaches, self-learning (SL) was recently developed for the synergetic classification of hyperspectral (HS) and panchromatic (PAN) images. Combining the image segmentation and active learning techniques, SL aims at selecting and labeling the informative unlabeled samples automatically, thereby improving the classification accuracy unde...

The collaboration of the network and optical character recognition (OCR) is expected to be useful for extending the applications of OCR, and it has a potential to open up new vistas in future services using OCR. We presented the basic ideas of the synergetic OCR system in 2004, and developed a platform called WeOCR to realize the web-based OCR services. The number of accesses has been increasin...

DNA methylation and histone methylation (H3K27me3) have been reported as major barriers to induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) generation using four core transcription factors (Oct4, Sox2, Klf4, and c-Myc, termed OSKM). Here, to illustrate the possibility of deriving iPSCs via demethylation, as well as the exact effects of DNA methylation and histone modification on gene expression regulation,...

Background: In recent decades neoadjuvant therapies such as combined chemotherapy and radiotherapy have been introduced for cancer management. Compared with monotherapy modalities, neoadjuvant therapy is associated with greater effectiveness while having minor side effects. Docetaxel is a chemotherapy agent for breast cancer treatment which can blocks the cell cycle at the G2/M phase which has ...

Agricultural waste management through energy recovery is one of the critical options that could drive clean production industry and properly replace use coal in Nigeria if done sustainably. The objective this work therefore to study synergetic effect feedstock mixture torrefaction pre-treatment on some physical performance characteristics briquettes from cornhusk (CH) sawdust (SD) wastes. In wo...

Aim. This work presents the amelioration of direct power control using synergetic-super twisting algorithms for asynchronous generators integrated into dual-rotor wind turbine systems. Method. The main role is to active and reactive powers reduce harmonic distortion stator current generator variable speed traditional strategy more attractive due its high efficiency simple algorithm. Super are a...
