Objective: to compare the measurement area of venous ulcers using AutoCAD(r) and Image Tool software. Method: this was an assessment of reproducibility tests conducted in a angiology clinic of a university hospital. Data were collected from 21 patients with venous ulcers, in the period from March to July of 2015, using a collection form and photograph of wounds. Five nurses (evaluators) of th...

Knowledge discovery, that is, to analyze a given massive data set and derive or discover some knowledge from it, has been becoming a quite important subject in several fields including computer science. Good softwares have been demanded for various knowledge discovery tasks. For such softwares, we often need to develop efficient algorithms for handling huge data sets. Random sampling is one of ...

With high resolution satellite images, object-based image analysis has dwarfed the impact of pixel-based analysis methods. Segmentation plays a pivotal role in the performance of object-oriented methods like change detection, feature extraction. We have conducted a study to compare some of the segmentation softwares of different categories. Softwares were tested on low resolution (10 m) multisp...

FlipFlop implements a fast method for de novo transcript discovery and abundance estimation from RNA-Seq data. It differs from Cufflinks by simultaneously performing the transcript and quantitation tasks using a penalized maximum likelihood approach, which leads to improved precision/recall. Other softwares taking this approach have an exponential complexity in the number of exons in the gene. ...

One of the methods for analyzing systems is simulation. Network simulation is a technique that models the behavior of the network by performing transaction calculations between different network entities and using mathematical formulas and taking observations from network products. A network simulator is a piece of software or hardware that predicts the behavior of a computer network without a ...
