Identification of flow pattern during the simultaneous flow of two immiscible liquids requires knowledge of the flow rate of each fluid as well as knowledge of other physical parameters like conduit inclination, pipe material, pipe diameter, viscosity of the oil, wetting characteristics of the pipe, design of the entry mixer, and fluid-fluid interfacial tension. This article presents an artificial neural

Emotion recognition is one of the important highlights of human emotional intelligence and has long been studied to be incorporated with machine intelligence argued to make machines even more intelligent. This paper aims to contribute to this field of study by enabling machines to recognize emotion from facial electromyogram (EMG) signals. This includes a compilation of the groups attempt to recognize basic facial expressions namely happy, angry, and sad through the use of EMG signals from facial muscles. The group extracted features from the three EMG signals from the face of two human subjects, a male and a female, and analyzed these features to serve as feature templates. Using a minimum-distance classifier, recognition rates exceeded the target accuracy - 85 percent - reaching 94.44 percent for both the male and female subjects.

We report our recent work on the recognition of scene text captured by mobile cameras, which we have named Kannada Pado. The text region is currently manually cropped using a user-friendly interface, which permits repeated croppings from the captured image in a hierarchical fashion. The scene text segment is then binarized using the algorithm, midline analysis, and propagation for segmentation. The segmented binary text image is recognized using Lipi Gnani Kannada OCR. The recognized text can be transcribed in Roman, Devanagari, and other principal Indian scripts. Such tools will be of immense use in metropolitan cities such as Bengaluru for business visitors and tourists to be able to read important textual information using their mobile itself. The entire implementation is of low computational complexity and hence, runs fully on the mobile itself, without any backend computation. Currently, text recognition accuracy is the bottleneck, which, when improved, will make the app immediately usable by people. Then, it will be made available to the public from Google Playstore.

Study of the relationship between mutagenicity and molecular structure for a data set of nitrogenous cyclic compounds is reported. A computerized SAR system (ADAPT) was utilized to classify a data set of 114 nitrogenous cyclic compounds with 19 molecular descriptors. All of the descriptors represented at least 10% of the compounds in the data sets. The average correct predictability of the data base was calculated to be 89% after evaluating 100 training/prediction subsets. The actual predictive ability of the discriminants generated by the ADAPT system was demonstrated by predicting the mutagenicity of structurally similar compounds not in the data set. Weight vectors generated in the pattern recognition programs were used to predict the bacterial mutagenicity of 10 compounds which were not included in the data set. All of the compounds were predicted correctly which was actually better than the 89% calculated by the system. This displayed the ability of the system of classify compo...

Understanding text captured in real-world scenes is a challenging problem in the field of visual pattern recognition and continues to generate a significant interest in the OCR (Optical Character Recognition) community. This paper proposes a novel method to recognize scene texts avoiding the conventional character segmentation step. The idea is to scan the text image with multi-scale windows and apply a robust recognition model, relying on a neural classification approach, to every window in order to recognize valid characters and identify non valid ones. Recognition results are represented as a graph model in order to determine the best sequence of characters. Some linguistic knowledge is also incorporated to remove errors due to recognition confusions. The designed method is evaluated on the ICDAR 2003 database of scene text images and outperforms state-of-the-art approaches.

Each complex network (or class of networks) presents specific topological features which characterize its connectivity and highly influence the dynamics of processes executed on the network. The analysis, discrimination, and synthesis of complex networks therefore rely on the use of measurements capable of expressing the most relevant topological features. This article presents a survey of such measurements. It includes general considerations about complex network characterization, a brief review of the principal models, and the ...

Abstract: This paper proves that non-convex quadratically constrained quadratic programs have an exact semidefinite relaxation when their underlying graph is acyclic, provided the constraint set satisfies a certain technical condition. When the condition is not satisfied, we propose a heuristic to obtain a feasible point starting from a solution of the relaxed problem. These methods are then demonstrated to provide exact solutions to a richer class of optimal power flow problems than previously solved.

Face Recognition has been identified as one of the attracting research areas and it has drawn the attention of many researchers due to its varying applications such as security systems, medical systems, entertainment, etc. Face recognition is the preferred mode of identification by humans: it is natural, robust and non-intrusive. A wide variety of systems requires reliable personal recognition schemes to either confirm or determine the identity of an individual requesting their services. The purpose of such schemes is to ensure that the rendered services are accessed only by a legitimate user and no one else. Examples of such applications include secure access to buildings, computer systems, laptops, cellular phones, and ATMs. In the absence of robust personal recognition schemes, these systems are vulnerable to the wiles of an impostor. In this paper we have developed and illustrated a recognition system for human faces using a novel Kohonen self-organizing map (SOM) or Self-Organi...

One of the most famous cultural heritages in Indonesia is batik. Batik is a specially made drawing cloth by writing Malam (wax) on the cloth, then processed in a certain way. The diversity of motifs both in Indonesia and the allied countries raises new research topics in the field of information technology, both for conservation, storage, publication and the creation of new batik motifs. In computer science research area, studies about Batik pattern have been done by researchers and some algorithms have been successfully applied in Batik pattern recognition. This study was focused on Batik motif recognition using texture fusion feature which is Gabor, Log-Gabor, and GLCM; and using PCA feature reduction to improve the classification accuracy and reduce the computational time. To improve the accuracy, we proposed a Deep Neural Network model to recognise batik pattern and used batch normalisation as a regularises to generalise the model and to reduce time complexity. From the experiments, the feature extraction, selection, and reduction gave better accuracy than the raw dataset. The feature selection and reduction also reduce time complexity. The DNN+BN significantly improve the accuracy of the classification model from 65.36% to 83.15%. BN as a regularization has successfully made the model more general, hence improve the accuracy of the model. The parameters tuning also improved accuracy from 83.15% to 85.57%.

Drug-drug interactions (DDIs) are responsible for many serious adverse events; their detection is crucial for patient safety but also very challenging. In recent years, several drugs have been withdrawn from the market due to interaction related Adverse Events (AEs). Currently, the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and pharmaceutical companies are showing great interest in the development of improved tools for identifying DDIs.

We describe a predictive model, applicable on a large scale to predict novel DDIs based on similarity of drug interaction candidates to drugs involved in established DDIs. The underlying assumption is that if drug A and drug B interact to produce a specific biological effect, then drugs similar to drug A (or drug B) are likely to interact with drug B (or drug A) to produce the same effect. We constructed a 352 drug DDI network from a 2011 snapshot of a widely-used drug safety database, which contains 3 700 established DDIs, and used it to develop the proposed model for predicting future DDIs. The target similarity for all selected pairs of drugs in DrugBank was computed to identify DDI candidates. The proposed model mainly follows two distinct approaches: the first one is ‘Which forces the preservation of existing (known) DDIs’ and the other one is ‘without forced to preserve existing DDIs.’ Predictions were made under each of these approaches using three different techniques: target similarity score, side effect similarity (P-score) and resulting score.

The methodology was evaluated using Drugbank 2014 snapshot as a gold standard for the same set of drugs. The proposed model generates novel DDIs with an average accuracy of 95% for force to preserve existing (known) DDIs. Average accuracy for without forced to preserve existing DDIs is 92%. These two approaches also give average AUC (Area Under the Curve) of 0.9834 and 0.8651 respectively.

The results presented in this study demonstrate the usefulness of the proposed network based drug-drug interaction methodology as a promising approach. The method described in this article is very simple, efficient, and biologically sound.

Keywords— Drug-drug Interactions, Adverse Events, Target similarity score, P-score.

Scene text recognition brings various new challenges occurs in recent years. Detecting and recognizing text in scenes entails some of the equivalent problems as document processing, but there are also numerous novel problems to face for recognizing text in natural scene images. Recent research in these regions has exposed several promise but present is motionless much effort to be entire in these regions. Most existing techniques have focused on detecting horizontal or near-horizontal texts. In this paper, we propose a new scheme which detects texts of arbitrary directions in natural scene images. Our algorithm is equipped with two sets of characteristics specially designed for capturing both the natural characteristics of texts using MSER regions using Otsu method. To better estimate our algorithm and compare it with other existing algorithms, we are using existing MSRA Dataset, ICDAR Dataset, and our new dataset, which includes various texts in various real-world situations. Experiments results on these standard datasets and the proposed dataset shows that our algorithm compares positively with the modern algorithms when using horizontal texts and accomplishes significantly improved performance on texts of random orientations in composite natural scenes images.

The recognition of symbols in graphic documents is an intensive research activity in the community of pattern recognition and document analysis. A key issue in the interpretation of maps, engineering drawings, diagrams, etc. is the recognition of domain dependent symbols according to a symbol database. In this work we first review the most outstanding symbol recognition methods from two different points of view: application domains and pattern recognition methods. In the second part of the paper, open and unaddressed problems involved in symbol recognition are described, analyzing their current state of art and discussing future research challenges. Thus, issues such as symbol representation, matching, segmentation, learning, scalability of recognition methods and performance evaluation are addressed in this work. Finally, we discuss the perspectives of symbol recognition concerning to new paradigms such as user interfaces in handheld computers or document database and WWW indexing by graphical content.

In this paper, we present a high compression and collision resistant algorithm for images either suitable to extract an indexing pattern of the image and to detect deformations applied to original image. Some transforms are extracting characteristics invariant against geometrical deformations (rotation and scalling). Among them, the Radon transform, largely used in magnetic resonance imaging, is also robust against image processing basic attacks (like compression, filtering, blurring, etc...) and strong attacks (Stirmark). This transformation allows to caracterize easily features of geometrical transforms. It permits also an easy extraction of an indexing vector of the image.

The selection of the optimal feature subset and the classification has become an important issue in the field of iris recognition. In this paper we propose several methods for iris feature subset selection and vector creation. The deterministic feature sequence is extracted from the iris image by using the contourlet transform technique. Contourlet transform captures the intrinsic geometrical structures of
