This paper proposes new hybrid approaches for face recognition. Gabor wavelets representation of face images is an effective approach for both facial action recognition and face identification. Perform dimensionality reduction and linear discriminate analysis on the down sampled Gabor wavelet faces can increase the discriminate ability. Nearest feature space is extended to various similarity me...

    Drug resistance enables cancer cells to break away from cytotoxic effect of anticancer drugs. Identification of resistant phenotype is very important because it can lead to effective treatment plan. There is an interest in developing classifying models of resistance phenotype based on the multivariate data. We have investigated a vibrational spectroscopic approach in order to characterize a...

the genetic diversity of 40 tobacco (nicotiana tabacum l.) cultivars was analyzed using 12 issr primers. thecultivars were evaluated for 14 traits using a simple lattice design (7×7) with two replications. of 149 amplified bands, 142 (95.3%) were polymorphic. maximum and minimum bands were generated by primers ubc825 (17 bands and 94.11% polymorphic) and ubc824 (7 bands and 100% polymorphic), r...

in this paper, we study the classical sensitivity analysis when the right - hand – side vector, and the coefficients of the objective function are allowed to vary.

We describe a straightforward, automated line tracking method to visualize linear macromolecules as they rearrange shape by brownian diffusion and under external fields such as electrophoresis. The analysis, implemented here with 30 ms time resolution, identifies contour lines from one end of the molecule to the other without attention to structure smaller than the optical resolution. There are...

PURPOSE To assess the sensitivity of linear measures of brain atrophy in the diagnosis of Alzheimer disease (AD) in the early stages. METHODS Linear measures of regional frontal (Bifrontal index, interhemispheric fissure width), medial temporal lobe (interuncal distance, minimum thickness of the medial temporal lobe), and hippocampal (hippocampal height, width of the choroid fissure, width of...

this paper proposes a suitable benchmark for inefficient commercial bank branches by using data envelopment analysis (dea). in order to render an inefficient bank branch efficient, it is necessary to decrease inputs and increase outputs. as there are priorities for decreasing some certain inputs and increasing some certain outputs over other inputs and outputs, respectively, it is necessary to ...
