local historiography in iran, precedence of which can be traced back to the iranian pre-islamic era, saw a golden age of quantitative and qualitative growth under the qajar dynasty.hence,most of our country's cities and rigions possessed at least one local history.after examining some fifty printed works on local histories of the qajarid period, it has been studied in the article the characteri...

Effectiveness of local binary pattern (LBP) for face recognition has been proven. But the weight of weighted LBP is difficult to determine. In this paper, we proposed a biologically plausible approach to set the weight automatically. Combining LBP and visual attention, a weight map can be constructed by summing over the saliency map. The weight map outlines salient information in the image and ...

Due to redundancy in the spatiotemporal neighborhood and global dependency between video frames, recognition remains a challenge. Some prior works have been mainly driven by 3D convolutional neural networks (CNNs) or 2D CNNs with well-designed module for temporal information. However, convolution-based lack capability capture due limited receptive field. Alternatively, transformer is proposed b...

Pansharpening means fusing the low spatial resolution multispectral image (LRMSI) and panchromatic (PAN) to get high (HRMSI). Due powerful feature learning ability of deep-learning (DL), DL-based unsupervised fusion methods have been developed explosively. However, most are difficult fully explore utilize correct spectral correlation between LRMSI, HRMSI, PAN images. In addition, CNN-dominated ...

INTRODUCTION Interpersonal contacts have been identified as performing an important role in supply chain management, especially where the cultural concept of informal relationships has a major influence on both social and business norms. Perhaps the most studied type of informal relationship is guanxi, which derives from Chinese social-cultural norms and influences human behaviour in society. E...

This study examines the attentional blink (AB) under conditions where attention was directed either to the overall (global) or to the component (local) form of compound Navon letters. Forty-five adult participants were presented RSVP sequences of compound letter stimuli and were asked to identify the prescribed attentional aspect of a red target letter (T1) and to detect the presence of a secon...
