In this paper, utilization of clustering algorithms for data fusion in decision level is proposed. The results of automatic isolated word recognition, which are derived from speech spectrograph and Linear Predictive Coding (LPC) analysis, are combined with each other by using fuzzy clustering algorithms, especially fuzzy k-means and fuzzy vector quantization. Experimental results show that the ...

Three strains of facultatively anaerobic thermotolerant and moderately halophilic bacteria were isolated from two Jordanian hot spring locations. The novel Bacillus strains were short rods, Gram-positive, motile and spore formers. The strains were capable of anaerobic (but not aerobic) growth at 63C, moderately halophilic, able to grow at NaCl concentration range of 12 15 % and at temperatures ...

در شهرهایی همچون اصفهان مناره نقش تأثیرگذاری حیطۀ فضای شهری بافت‌های تاریخی دارند؛ این بناها عملکردهای متفاوتی را پوشش می‌داده‌اند و دارای ویژگی‌های معماری، سازه‌ای، تزیینات گوناگون اجزای تشکیل‌دهندۀ خود بودند هستند. باور بنیادین محققان پژوهش حاضر آن است که فرم نهایی مناره‌های شهر به شکل مستقیم از نوع چینش آجرها، توانمندی استادکاران سنتی، پلان، تأثیر می‌پذیرد. با معرفی بررسی نمونه‌هایی موجود اص...

Face recognition is important in human identification. The biological recognition technique acts as a good method and broad applications in security areas. This work presents a method to improve the face recognition accuracy using a combination of Principal Component Analysis (PCA), and Wavelet Transform. Wavelet Transform is used to decompose the input image with different levels and rearrange...
