Speech and Language Therapy (SLT) is an area focused in the rehabilitation of people suffering from different kinds of disorders and disabilities related with language and communication. According to latest estimates of theWorld Health Organization, the most of countries do not have appropriate structures to provide healthcare and rehabilitation services these persons. On those grounds, this paper...
MultiBoost ensemble has been well acknowledged as an effective learning algorithm which able to reduce both bias and variance in error and has high generalization performance. However, to deal with the class imbalanced learning, the Multi- Boost shall be amended. In this paper, a new hybrid machine learning method called Distribution based MultiBoost (DBMB) for class imbalanced problems is proposed,...
In this paper, we addressed a problem on which depends closely the success of developing component-based applications. The problem consists in how are selected appropriate software components from several alternatives. The paper presents a solution in which we used the concept of fuzzy sets. The proposed solution consists in creating a fuzzy set of suitable components in which each component is associated...
Due to the fact that proper dietary planning will maintain the healthiness of patients, plus a food consumption control is an important clinical treatment of certain diseases of medical healthcare. This paper is aimed at proposing a practical solution to generate an automated schedule for both the In- Patient Department (IPD) and Out-Patient department (OPD) for a hospital. The challenges of this...
In this paper, we propose a computer aided diagnosis system for brain MRI. This system is based on regiongrowing segmentation and KNN classification. The co-occurrence matrix and the discrete wavelet decomposition methods are used to extract the parameters of suspect region. At the last part, we applied our system to other subject to estimate its accuracy.
Many researchers said that determining learning styles enhance the learning development and makes learning easier for students. Learning management systems (LMS) are very successful in e-learning even though it does not include learning styles. As learning styles must be taken into consideration in LMS, students’ behavior in online courses needs to be analyzed and observed. In the beginning we show...
A student information system provides a simple interface for the easy collation and maintenance of all manner of student information. The creation and management of accurate, up-to-date information regarding students’ academic careers is critical students and for the faculties and administration ofSebha University in Libya and for any other educational institution. A student information system deals...
The importance of database systems to efficiently support OLTP and OLAP mixed workloads, the so-called OLXP workloads, has been recognized recently. Some research projects and also some commercial database systems with focus on the processing of OLXP workloads have appeared in the last few years. In this paper, we present our work to extend the PostgreSQL OSS database system to efficiently handle...
Mobile Agents (MAs) are referred to as autonomous application programs with the inherent ability to move between nodes towards a goal completion. In the context of Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs), MAs may be used in the process of combining data from different sources aiming at maximizing the useful information content. MAs have been initially developed to replace the Client/Server model which exhibits...
The areas of positioning and tracking through Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) have received considerable attention recently driven by the requirement to obtain high positioning accuracy with minimum cost possible. A wide range of proposed approaches regarding the positioning area have emerged, however most of them suffer from either requiring an extra sensor, high power consumption, inaccessible indoors,...
In this paper, the simulation and manipulation of 6 DOF robot manipulator is presented using the kinematic model and an AR (Augmented reality) environment. In this context, the system is based on a multimodal user interface to overlay virtual objects onto the real world scene. The objective of this work is by providing the right information needed to perform a certain task. The determination of the...
In this paper we propose a global study of the spatial 3-RRR parallel robot Delta based on geometric parameters of robot, the graphical presentation of this famous model is in this article, and to definekinds of singularity for the direct and inverse kinematics model. Simulation of results are presented by the combination of graphical virtual environment and mechanical design tools; CAD and VRML;...
In this paper we propose a method for identifying the semantic context of segments of text within a larger document. Our method is based on an extension ofChomsky’s x-bar theory. We adapt the xbar concept of headedness to a coarser granularity of text, such as paragraphs. Using this method, which we call P-bar, we map a set of vocabulary domains to a unique semantic context.Using a rule-based errordriven...
A gas engine is an internal combustion engine which runs on a gas fuel, such as coal gas, producer gas, biogas, landfill gas or natural gas. Generally the term gas engine refers to a heavy-duty industrial engine capable of running continuously at full load for periods approaching a high fraction of 8,760 hours per year. Unlike a gasoline automobile engine, which is lightweight, high-revving and typically...
As part of Agile transformation in past few years we have seen IT organizations adopting continuous integration principles in their software delivery lifecycle, which has improved the efficiency of development teams. With the time it has been realized that this optimization as part of continuous integration - alone - is just not helping to make the entire delivery lifecycle efficient or is not driving...
