residential mobility is an important ecological mobility which, besides physical impacts, has contributed in shaping or reshaping of urban social milieus. the analyses of results related to a sample of 17510 households inhabiting in 40 regions of mashhad indicates that 46.9 percent of them had experienced a residential relocation during a period of ten years, the maximum of which (62.8 percent)...

Simin Behbahani is one of the contemporary ingenious and efficacious poets. In her New-Sonnets (Nou-Ghazal), the frequency and variety of allusions are too many, so that the allusion is one of the most striking features of her poetic style. Accurate understanding of semantic capacities and structural concinnities of the word, which has allusive theme, depends on being familiar with meaning and ...

In this paper we propose an approach for offline recognition of Tamil characters using their structural features. Structural features are the features that are physically a part of the structure of the character, such as straight lines, arcs, circles, intersections etc. The features used for recognition are the positions of vertical lines, horizontal lines and branching in a character. Some oth...

ABSTRAC: -This research aims at the extraction of geometric features from Urdu ligatures. Though structural features are robust, its extraction and analysis is exceptionally complex and time-consuming task. The extraction and analysis is uncomplicated in case of the geometric features. Geometric features are language, script and font independent. There are twelve significant geometric features ...

Multi-script identification helps in automatically selecting an appropriate OCR when video has several scripts; however, script identification in video frames is challenging because low resolution and complex background of video often cause disconnections or the loss of text information. This paper presents a novel idea that integrates the Gradient-Spatial-Features (GSpF) and the Gradient-Struc...

Feature Extraction plays most crucial and important role in character recognition. The selection of stable and representative set of features is the main problem in pattern recognition. Because of font characteristics and style variation of machine printed Tamil characters, feature extraction remains a problem. Feature extraction involves reducing the amount of resources required to describe a ...

This paper presents a novel approach to defining document image structural similarity for the applications of classification and retrieval. We first build a codebook of SURF descriptors extracted from a set of representative training images. We then encode each document and model the spatial relationships between them by recursively partitioning the image and computing histograms of codewords i...

Young adults have been labelled as one of the most important segments for mobile phones, however there is little empirical evidence to indicate how these young adults value the feature richness of their devices. This research presents a richer view of mobile phone user preferences and perceptions by applying methodologies from the marketing and information systems domains. Conjoint analysis pro...
