Image denoising is a critical issue in the field of digital image processing. This paper proposes a novel Salt & Pepper noise suppression by developing a Kriging Interpolation Filter (KIF) for image denoising. Gray-level images degraded with Salt & Pepper noise have been considered. A sequential search for noise detection was made using kk window size to determine nonnoisy pixels only. The non...

The paper defines and studies new semi-Riemannian generalized Fisher metrics Fisher-like metrics, associated with entropies divergences. Examples of seven such families are provided, based on exponential PDFs. particular case when the basic entropy is a ϕ-deformed one, in sense Naudts, investigated detail, emphasis variation emergent scalar curvatures. Moreover, highlights impact these geometri...

The present study was designed to investigate the immunomodulatory activity of the ethanolic extract of Tinospora cordifolia (Family: Menispermaceae)stem (climbing shrub, mango plant) at cellular level. For antioxidant study, the liver mitochondria were separated and the concentration of enzymes like lipid peroxidation (LPO), reduced glutathione (GSH), catalase (CAT) and superoxide Dismutase (S...

The requirement to improve software productivity has promoted the research on software metrics technology. Object Oriented paradigm is the technology being used to build fault free and stupendous softwares; and to make them fault free object oriented metrics are being used. These metrics are used to identify high risk components early in the design phase and hence help us to reduce the rework a...

— In-Process testing metrics has been used from some years and its usage is frequently increasing. There are different metrics for software testing i.e to measure testing progress, Mean time between arrival of error, density of errors, fixation of errors, failure rate, test execution Productivity, cost of defects, Test efficiency and efficiency checking and so on. But all these metrics are inde...

Forest structure is a key element to determine the capacity of mountain forests to protect people and their assets against natural hazards. Airborne laser scanning offers new ways for describing forest structure in 3D. This study aimed at developing a generic automated approach for assessing and quantifying forest structure using landscape metrics on height class patches of the normalized crown...

The Kernighan/Lin graph partitioning heuristic, also known as min-cut, has been enhanced over decades and successfully adopted for circuit partitioning. During last years extended versions have been developed to address functional partitioning as it is needed to solve the much investigated co-design problem of partitioning a system’s coarse-grained functions among hardware and software componen...

BACKGROUND Accurate estimation of aboveground forest biomass (AGB) and its dynamics is of paramount importance in understanding the role of forest in the carbon cycle and the effective implementation of climate change mitigation policies. LiDAR is currently the most accurate technology for AGB estimation. LiDAR metrics can be derived from the 3D point cloud (echo-based) or from the canopy heigh...
