As solar energy costs continue to drop, the number of large-scale deployment projects increases, and the need for different analysis models for photovoltaic (PV) modules in both academia and industry rises. This paper ...

A robust 3-D segmentation technique incorporated with the level sets concept and based on both shape and intensity constraints is introduced. A partial differential equation (PDE) is derived to describe the evolution of ...

Background: Nowadays, the whole world is being concerned with a major health problem, which is diabetes. A very common symptom of diabetes is the diabetic foot ulcer (DFU). The early detection of such foot complications ...

The objective of this research is to create a simple computerized tool to measure the visibility of open spaces by testing different scenarios and building arrangements and comparing their visibility graphs to be created ...

Most global motion estimation (GME) methods are oriented to video coding while video object segmentation methods either assume no global motion (GM) or directly adopt a coding-oriented method to compensate for GM. This ...

The UAE per capita energy consumption is one of the highest in the world. Since the energy sector is the center of most ecological problems facing the world today, eco-efficiency and eco-innovations are at the top of the ...

Identification and treatment of chronic wounds (CWs) are considered economic and social challenges, especially with respect to bedridden and elderly persons. CWs do not follow a predictive course of healing within a ...

The objective of this work is to develop a computer-aided diagnostic system for early diagnosis of prostate cancer. The presented system integrates both clinical biomarkers (prostate-specific antigen) and extracted features ...

This paper proposes a novel framework for the classification of lung nodules using computed tomography (CT) scans. The proposed framework is based on the integrating the following features to get accurate diagnosis of ...

Vegetation is a key component of nearly all global ecosystems, having a role of regulating various biogeochemical cycles in nature, as well as maintaining the energy balance at the earth's surface and atmospheric boundary ...
