The paper discusses the development of emotion recognition system which can be applied to a wider range of human population. This is achieved by measuring the unique electromagnetic (EM) signal generated upon invoking certain emotions. A set of audio-visual stimulants is designed to invoke the desired emotions under study that are happy, sad and ne

According to the Holy Quran, the evolution of life is the result of divine will and divine guidance. One of the key elements of natural selection is that offspring sometimes vary from their parents. For instance, a yellow buttery may have a black offspring. This kind of variation and mutation, though rare, tends to occur in all species. Over a long

This paper discusses a study on detecting affective states of human subjects from their body’s electromagnetic (EM) wave. In particular, the affective states under investigation are happy, nervous, and sad which play important roles in Human-Robot Interaction (HRI)applications. A structured experimental setup was designed to invoke the desired af

This paper elaborates the basic structure of a machine learning system in classifying affective state. There are several techniques in classifying the states depending on the type of input-output dataset. A proper selection of techniques is crucial in determining the success rate of the system prediction. The paper proposes a machine learning techn

We describe the structure of quadratic operators of a two-sex population that differs from the model studied by Lyubich and give an example of nonergodic quadratic operator for a two-sex population.Ukrainian Mathematical Journal, Vol. 65, No. 8, January, 2014 (Ukrainian Original Vol. 65, No. 8, August, 2013) NONERGODIC QUADRATIC OPERATORS FOR A TWO

Recombinant plasmid containing segment A open reading frame 2 (ORF2) gene of infectious bursal disease virus (IBDV) of a very virulent subtype from local outbreak (strain 3529/92) was constructed. The gene encoding the IBDV structural polyprotein (N-VP2-VP3-VP4-C) was inserted into an expression vector, pPICZ prior to its transformation into Pichia

The study attempts to highlight the position of Imam Malik bin Anas on deviant sects which emerged and developed during his time. It discusses the views of Imam Malik on other Muslim sects like Shi'its and its school of thoughts, Qadarites, where he authored a specific book and a chapter in his "Muwatta" in response to their central tea

The features of outdoor environment in urban spaces and morphology affect the quality of life (QoL) of urban inhabitants and visitors. The purpose of this study is to develop an extensive hypothesis on the parametric valuation related to the modification of the urban environment and inhabitant’s QoL by systematic literature review, field observat

In a mass production environment where resources such machines are shared, a balanced and scheduled production flow line can play a pivotal role through the enhancement of line efficiency by minimizing production time. Balancing of production flow line is a classical OR problem which has been addressed extensively during the last few decades. But o

Symmetric Tori connected Torus Network (STTN)is a 2D-torus network of multiple basic modules, where each basic module is a 2D-torus network that are hierarchically interconnected for higher-level networks. The static network performance for STTN has already been studied earlier and shown to be good than that of other networks considering very large
