It has been discovered by computational experiments that Complex Back-Propagation (CBP) algorithm is well suited for learning complex pattern, and it has been reported that this ability can successfully be applied in image processing with complex values. In this paper, a watermarking scheme based on Complex-Valued Neural Network, CVNN trained by CB

Recent advancement in digital medium has created a need for secure transfer and transaction over the internet. The fact is that the current digital distribution and storage technologies are great threat to multimedia industries where unlimited number of perfect copies can be produce illegally. In this paper we discuss digital watermarking as a mean

The paper presents real-time affective state detection, in particular, the engagement level detection by using physiological signals under fuzzy framework. In order to develop the fuzzy model, the engagement model is developed by using data collected from controlled design experiment. In measuring the level of engagement, the physiological signals;

ω-Fatty acids of Channa micropeltes fish oil was analysed. The lipid from the fish flesh was extracted using Folch method and the fatty acid composition was analysed using GC and GC-MS.It was found that the major constituents of C. micropeltes lipid were palmitic acid (C16:0) (14.1%), docosahexaenoic acid (DHA, C22:6 ω-3) (13.9%) and arachidonic

VircoSpray is a blended cooking spray between virgin coconut oil and palm olein. It is designed to cater the needs of specific groups such as travelers and adventurers, army staff and diet conscious groups. For travelers and adventures, the VircoSpray can be used for instant cooking, frying and roasting during camping, fishing and picnicking. For a

In order to evaluate the frying performance of palm-based solid frying shortening against standard olein, the fresh potato chips were fried in both frying media using an open fryer. After frying the chips for 40 h in an open batch fryer, it was found that the frying quality of palm-based solid frying shortening was better than standard palm olein i

Study on the effect of banana flower extract on lactating rats was carried out. It was found that the amount of milk consumed by the pups increased in days of lactation, except when the dam did not feed their pups during a period of one hour milking. Besides that, the statistical data showed that there was a significant difference (p<0.5) in mi

Objective: Family Environment Scale (FES) is one of the most widely used instruments to measure many family aspects. Cross cultural adaptation of the original FES is essential prior to local utilization as different cultures percept their family environments differently. We attempted to translate the FES into the Bahasa Malaysia language for adoles

A retrospective study was conducted to investigate 183 serologically-confirmed cases of dengue fever (DF) admitted from October 2004 to March 2005 in a large hospital in Pahang. Clinical and laboratory features, progress and outcome of these patients were analysed in order to identify risk factors associated with development of dengue haemorrhagic

Problem statement: Current researches have shown that the thermoplastic-clay nanocomposites have failed to live up to the earlier predictions albeit they have found some niche area of applications. This research work therefore aimed at studying the effect of carbon nanotube as secondary filler on the mechanical properties of polypropylene-clay nano
