-Inpainting is the process of reconstructing lost or deteriorated part of images based on the background information. i. e .it fills the missing or damaged region in an image utilizing spatial information of its neighboring region. Inpainting algorithm have numerous applications. It is helpfully used for restoration of old films and object removal in digital photographs. The main goal of the al...

Seed germination in Ludwigia was greatly influenced by seed age and soil type. In Ludwigia abyssinica germination was not influenced by seed age and soil texture. Freshly shed seeds and six month old seeds of Ludwigia decurrens variety B showed a very low percentage germination on all the germination media, and six month old seeds germinated significantly earlier than freshly shed seeds. Some s...

A 36 year old woman was seen in the dermatology department because of a mole on her back. On examination, she had an 8 mm uniformly pigmented lesion with regular margin and texture on her midback, which clinically was a benign naevus. The skin was also soft and hyperextensible, with a velvety appearance (fig 1). She also had extensive scars on her legs, forehead, arms, and back (fig 2), which d...

over the past years, lake water levels have decreased considerably by various factors and the subsequent emergence of salt plain has brought disastrous consequences that need an essential action. therefore, this study aimed to investigate the effects of drying up and increasing lake water salt and landsat satellite images were used during different time periods in 9 years. to identify the new a...

UNLABELLED CCK involvement in stress- and pain-responsiveness was examined by studying the behavior of infant (11-12-days-old) and adult OLETF rats that do not express CCK1 receptors. Infant odor- and texture-preferences were also assessed. We hypothesized that OLETF rats will show behavioral patterns similar to those previously observed after CCK1 antagonist administration. Rate of separation-...

Image inpainting has been widely applied to many applications, such as restoring corrupted old photos, erasing video logos, concealing errors in a digital video processing system, and so on. However, traditional geometric inpainting methods suffer low efficiency. To tackle this problem, this paper addresses an efficient transform based framework for geometric methods. Given an image, we firstly...
