real-Time Human Activity Recognition Using External and Internal Spatial Features
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Human activity recognition has become very popular in the field of computer vision. In this paper, we present a simple, robust and computationally efficient algorithm, architecture and implementation to recognise and classify human activities in real-time using very few training data. We employ a spatio-temporal representation of human activities b

Towards Automatic Testing and Defect Recognition in Magnetic Particle Inspection
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

In the trend toward improvement of quality assurance, billions of parts per year are nondestructively tested for surface cracks in the automotive industry. This puts a lot of stress on both the automotive components manufacturing process and the human inspectors. In order to streamline the entire automotive components production system and to relie

A Hybrid art-Rbf Network Architecture for Viewpoint Invariant Human Activity Recognition
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

There is growing interest in the problem of human activity recognition, motivated by its countless promising applications in many domains. Despite much progress, most researchers have narrowed the problem towards fixed camera viewpoint owing to inherent difficulty to train their systems across all possible viewpoints. Fixed viewpoint systems are im

Ultrasonic Techniques for Detection of Thinning Defects in Metal Plates
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

This paper describes the use of ultrasonic nondestructive evaluation in corrosion detection of aircrafts structures. Initiating on the inside or in the interface of an aircraft’s skin, the corrosion must be tested from the outside surface. Corroded aluminum as well as corrosion simulation samples were inspected using pulse-echo technique of ultra

condition but continues to be a frequent management problem among doctors. Despite the availability of guidelines on management of SP, studies have shown that the compliance with the guidelines is low. The various treatment options available in treating this condition further confuse doctors on the right approach in managing SP. The objective of th

Development of an Adaptive Headlamp System

The highest fatal traffic accident rate occurs on curved roads at nighttime. In most cases, the late recognition of objects in the traffic zone plays a key role. These facts point to the importance of the role of automobile forward-lighting systems. In order to provide enhanced nighttime safety measures, this work aims to design and build a prototy

Rainfall Forecasting Models Using Focused time-Delay Neural Networks
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Rainfall forecasting is vital for making important decisions and performing strategic planning in agriculture-dependent countries. Despite its importance, statistical rainfall forecasting, especially for long-term, has been proven to be a great challenge due to the dynamic nature of climate phenomena and random fluctuations involved in the process.

Viewpoint Invariant Reconstruction of 3d Human Skeleton from Monocular Images
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

We present a fast, robust, fault-tolerant and nonparametric approach to reconstruct 3D human skeleton model from single images, regardless of the viewpoint of the camera relative to the observed person. The system achieves high degree of tolerance using search-based inference and probabilistic joint labeling. The system achieves 100% view invarianc

Investigating the Quality Management Initiatives in Higher Educational Institutions on Customer Satisfaction
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

With a mandate to general demand on quality education globally, educational administrators have increasingly embraced quality management as an important process through Deming theory of quality assurance for creating global staffs’ mind-sets on quality and to enhancing a profound quality achievement in Higher Education Institution (HEI). Meanwhil

Does Software Design Complexity Have Effects on Defects
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Empirical analysis is an important area in software engineering. One of the ways to ensure the quality of any software is to measure the software using statistical analysis of various metrics from empirical data. The emergence of various open source software repositories has contributed tremendously to the advancement in the empirical software engi
