The wavelet transform is an efficient technique for multi-resolution analysis of non-stationary and fast transient signals. For this reason, wavelet transform has been widely applied in signal analysis through processing, encoding, denoising and encrypting. The objective of this paper is to represent the development process of VHSIC (Very High Spee

Polymorphisms within the beta2-adrenergic receptor (ADRB2) gene have been repeatedly linked to hypertension. Among the ADRB2 polymorphisms detected, Arg16Gly and Gln27Glu codons are considered the two most important variations. The amino acid substitution at these codons may lead to abnormal regulation of ADRB2 activity. The aim of the present stud

An impulse radio ultra wideband (IR-UWB) pulse generator works between 5.5-10.5 GHz for narrowband interference mitigation is proposed. With an average power of -85 dBm/MHz from 0-5 GHz, high interference avoidance has been achieved for a wide range of narrowband systems including Global Positioning System (GPS), Worldwide Interoperability for Micr

The “Waqaf” is religio-economic term used in Islamic jurisprudence for donations made by individuals based on religious motives to serve the public. It usually made not in cash money but as concrete things, such as building schools or hospitals for use of public. The distinguishing feature of this private contribution in the community developme

Abstract: This study analyzes a range of phenomena relating to the alphabets Noon (ن) and Meem (م) in the Holy Quran by using sound evaluation, and examining the related variables that affect the sound in the recitation of the Quran. This study has been adopted on the basis of sound data that was characterized by inclusiveness and diversity, brin

Low loss long haul Optical Fiber Communication System (OFCS) is the key challenge in today’s research. Multi-stage Erbium-Doped Fiber Amplifier (EDFA) provides high gain, low noise figure and long distance transmission. Development of multi-stage EDFAs has become one of main research areas in recent times. In this study, a three-stage Quadruple P

The research highlight the interactive relationship between speech and Symantec according to the output of computational linguistics, trying to monitor the relations of statistical research between context of phonology and meaningful result of that speech

We propose a new algorithm based on machine learning techniques for automatic intruder detection in visual surveillance networks. The proposed algorithm is theoretically founded on the concept of Minimum Volume Sets. Through application to image sequences from two different scenarios and comparison with existing algorithms, we show that it is possi

Malware analysis process is being categorized into static analysis and dynamic analysis. Both static and dynamic analysis have their own strengths and weaknesses. In this paper, we present a tool written in Python programming language called as pi-ngaji, which could assist the work of malware analyst to get the static features of malware. pi-ngaji
