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

Vocabulary is an important component of language proficiency that provides the root for the ability of the learners is speaking, listening, reading and writing. the importance of vocabulary is esential for language learners. however, the teaching of vocubalury is often neglected in the teaching and learning of English language and it was often give

In this paper, we propose a multiple-transcoding tree (MTt) based on video streaming to deliver smooth and continuous flow of audio visual information to multiple-users with a different quality requirement. MTt, exploit the user terminal devices to transcode videos and forward to other devices. In MTt, each user determines a video quality requireme
