We study the phase diagram for Potts model on a Cayley tree with competing nearest-neighbor interactions J1, prolonged next-nearest-neighbor interactions Jp and one-level next-nearest-neighbor interactions Jo. Vannimenus proved that the phase diagram of Ising model with Jo=0 contains a modulated phase, as found for similar models on periodic lattic

Shape matching is one of the more significant research topics in the fields of Computer Vision, Pattern Recognition and Machine Learning. Successful shape matching algorithms/ methods has a high potential for a wide variety of practical applications. In this paper, we present our effort on using linear projection methods for static hand sign recogn

Skin colour modelling has been a popular research topic over the years due its possible practical applications. Varying skin tones makes modelling of skin colour as one of the most complex and challenging task. Accuracy and performance of skin detection and tracking highly depends on the skin model in use and the tracking method. In order to perfor

This paper focuses on developing an effective methodology to determine the performance of uncoated WC-Co inserts in predicting minimum surface roughness in end milling of titanium alloys Ti-6Al-4V under dry conditions. Central composite design of response surface methodology is employed to create an efficient analytical model for surface roughness

Quadratic stochastic operators frequently arise in many models of mathematical genetics, namely theory of heredity. In this paper we study the linearization of quadratic stochastic operators, state some properties of the its Jacobian and consider some application of quadratic stochastic operators in medicine.Proceedingso,.n.o.nlntemationalConferenc

Although the number of provisions pertaining to Islam in the Federal Constitution of Malaysia is small, the substance of the religion practically permeates various aspects of governance in Malaysia. This seems to be quite natural given that Islam stands at the very heart of Malay civilisation and culture. Apart from this, the Malays form the majori

This paper deals with different approaches to development. It stresses that development is a broad concept which covers all aspects of human life and society. It rejects the interpretation of the concept in terms of economic and political development only. Thus, the most suitable term to highlight the sense and traits of development is ‘social tr
