Cell division is one of the most fundamental processes of life where the mother cell completely reorganizes its shape to support the partitioning of genetic information and the formation of two identical daughter cells. During this morphological transformation a large number of essential proteins have to carry out their function at specific times and subcellular locations to complete the division...
In this paper, we draw attention to the emerging field of smart material interfaces. These novel composites that in some cases are already celebrated as the answer for the 21stcentury's technological needs, are generally referred to as materials that are capable of sensing the environment and actively responding to environmental changes by changing their physical properties. Smart materials have physical...
Multi-modal imaging system has emerged as a potential diagnostic tool to address multi-centered information (anatomic, metabolic, etc.) of the disease of interest which is, till now, quite impossible by any one modality alone. Combined positron emission tomography (PET) and X-ray computed tomography (CT) (PET/CT) or single-photon emission CT (SPECT) and X-ray CT (SPECT/CT) as multimodal imaging tools...
Human related analysis has been an active research field for its wide applications. With the advancement in sensing system and computing technologies, many methods have been explored for human motion analysis in the wild, especially human action, facial and gaze analysis. Although the majority of this research has been conducted on 2D images, there are significantly increasing demands for static and...
As is aware, cancer is a deadly disease and its early diagnosis and appropriate treatment is required to be undertaken on priority basis in an effective manner. There are some conventional techniques being used in the hospitals presently but these techniques are having their limitations and hence new low cost approaches are needed which are given here. Main emphasis is placed on the nano-technology...
Positron emission tomography (PET) plays important roles in cancer diagnosis, neuroimaging and molecular imaging research; but potential points remain for which big improvements could be made, including spatial resolution, sensitivity and manufacturing costs. Therefore, research on next generation PET technologies remains a hot topic worldwide. Depth-of-interaction (DOI) measurement in the radiation...
Stem cells are cells that exist in all organisms that have the ability to divide and give rise to more stem cells, or switch to become more specialized cells in human. Because of their self-renewal capacity and pluripotency, stem cells become driving force in functional tissue engineering and regenerative medicine. However, the number of stem cells can be isolated from the source are really limited...
Medical imaging technology has revolved tremendously to provide excellent imaging techniques to assist the medical practitioners in their diagnosis. However, too many medical images also put a lot of burden to them especially to the radiologists. Therefore, the needs arise to aid the radiologists have resulted in many research are currently ongoing in development of computer aided diagnostics by making...
Breast cancer, which develops from breast tissue, is one of the crucial health issues in the world today. Breast cancer is one of the most widespread cancers in women globally, accounting for 25% of all cases. The most common symptoms of this cancer is noticing a lump that is different from typical breast tissue, and in more than 80% cases, women can feel such lumps by themselves. The world health...
The talk has two parts. In the first part, the concept of granulation and granular computing is explained. The role of rough sets in uncertainty handling and granular computing is highlighted. Relevance of its integration with fuzzy sets to result in a stronger paradigm for uncertainty handling is stated, followed by the definitions of generalized rough sets and rough-fuzzy entropy in this context.
Presents the introductory welcome message from the conference proceedings. May include the conference officers' congratulations to all involved with the conference event and publication of the proceedings record.
This paper presents a gas sensor based on octagonal geometric structured hollow core photonic crystal Fiber. We have studied the optical properties of the proposed PCF numerically by full vector finite element method (FEM) using COMSOL Multiphysics. The octagonal lattice of the hollow core PCF has been optimized to obtain better relative sensitivity and low confinement loss. We have acquired the maximum...
Recently the development of brain-computer interface applications has drawn the attention of researchers as it can assist physically challenged people to communicate with their brain electroencephalogram signal. In this paper, a Brain-Computer Interface (BCI) is designed using EEG signals to differentiate between two mental arithmetic tasks performed by the same subject. The presented BCI approach...
A great revolution in health science could be done if the disease could be diagnosis at very early stage. The conventional chemically manipulated biological analysis of group cells is not able to illustrate the fundamental properties of a cell such as cell proliferations, cell growths, cell damage and electro-mechanical properties. In this paper, we are representing a method to measure the mass of...
Handwritten character recognition is an active area of research with applications in numerous fields. Past and recent works in this field have concentrated on various languages. Arabic is one language where the scope of research is still widespread, with it being one of the most popular languages in the world and being syntactically different from other major languages. Das et al. [1] has pioneered...
A novel procedure to detect Interstitial Lung Disease (ILD) with High Resolution Computed Tomography (HRCT) images is proposed. Seven texture measures from a selected slice of HRCT lung image of fifteen ILD cases, fifteen non-ILD cases and fifteen healthy individuals were obtained and their pairwise correlation calculated. Two groups of texture measure obtained from standard clustering procedure were...
Event-driven based traffic consideration in Wireless Sensor network (WSN) is a new area of research in the field of WSN. A few media access control (MAC) protocol has been proposed to handle the variety of both light and heavy traffic load situation such as RC-MAC which allows switching of modes to handle different traffic loads. In RC-MAC, nodes consume extra energy to stay awake like Receiver Initiated...
