Smoking is one of the major activities that can become highly addictive and can cause major health-related risks. It is one of the major causes of death worldwide. There are various issues revolving around smoking and its complications. To assess the impact of smoking, its complications, and the process of achieving smoking cessation, an online survey was conducted. In this study, the results of the...
Mass spectrometry technique is gradually gaining momentum among the recent techniques deployed by several analytical research labs which intends to study biological or chemical properties of complex structures such as protein sequences. Literature reveals that reasoning voluminous mass spectrometry data via sophisticated computational techniques inspired by observing natural processes adapted by biological...
Serial episode is a type of temporal frequent pattern in time series. Many different algorithms have been proposed to discover different types of episodes for different applications. In this paper we propose an algorithm for discovering frequent episodes from processed rain fall data. The algorithm is based on three main steps. (1) The rainfall data is first represented in symbolic representation...
Attribute reduction is one of the main issues in the theoretical research of rough set theory which is known as a NP-hard optimization problem. The objective is to find the minimal number of attributes from a large dataset. Hence it is difficult to solve to optimality. This paper proposes a composite neighbourhood structure approach to solve the attribute reduction problem that consists of two versions...
Iris recognition is one of the most reliable and accurate biometric technologies. Iris localization is crucial for the performance of an iris recognition system, it includes finding the iris boundaries (inner and outer) and the eyelids (lower and upper). In this paper, we propose an efficient iris localization method based on the angular integral projection function (AIPF) to detect the iris boundaries...
