A Hybrid Method Using Kinect Depth and Color Data Stream for Hand Blobs Segmentation New
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

The recently developed depth sensors such as Kinect have provided new potential for human-computer interaction (HCI) and hand gesture are one of main parts in recent researches. Hand segmentation procedure is performed to acquire hand gesture from a captured image. In this paper, a method is produced to segment hand blobs using both depth and color

Modelling and Simulation Analysis of Rolling Motion of Spherical Robot New
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

This paper presents the findings of modelling, control and analysis of the spherical rolling robot based on pendulum driven within the simulation environment. The spherical robot is modelled using Lagrange function based on the equation of rolling motion. PD-type Fuzzy logic controller (FLC) was designed to control the position of the spherical rob

Rectal Neuroendocrine Tumor: a Case Series New
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

The gastrointestinal (GI) tract contains no fewer than 13 different types of neuroendocrine cells.( 1)Although the GI tract have the largest amount of neuroendocrine cell, the occurrence of GI NETs are rare and only constitute less than 2 % of all GI malignancies. Rectal NETs are the second most common GI NETs after small bowel. Most of the cases d

Themes of Classicality in the Malay Architectural Form: Principles from an Aristocratic Realm = Tema Keklasikan Dalam Bentuk Seni Bina Melayu: Prinsip Daripada Golongan Bangsawan New
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

The term “classical” in past South East Asian and Malay writings, architectural discourse, cultural studies and urbanism has earlier related to a notion of ‘purity’ of form related to and the traditional vocabulary and forms arising mainly from timber constructions and, compositions. This article challenges these current definition by linki

Medical Apology at a Crossroad: a Need for the Enactment of Apology Legislations New
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Apologising has always been viewed as an important social conduct that allows for closure in disputes. The aftermath of disputes and conflicts are usually fuelled with feelings of anger, injustice, mistrust and a tendency to sue. Apologies can be made through statements of regret and empathy, acceptance of responsibility as well as proper explanati

The Hybrid Aesthetics of the Malay Vernacular: Reinventing Classifications Through the Classicality of South East Asia’s Palatial Forms New
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

The paper attempts to re-enact the framework of the ‘vernacular’ of Malay architecture while extending the classifications of its vernacular to include a Classical style ; defined as monumental vernacular expressions representing gradual stylistic changes and ‘hybrid’ constructions throughout the early modernisation period of Malay history

Reframing a 'theory of Origin' of Malay Architecture: a Basis from the Public Realm New
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

The origins of Malay architecture is typically linked to its vernacular past and vocabulary, primarily expressed in its residential timber traditions and arising from its detailed timber artisanship and constructions. Its constructional ingenuities had evolved a rich diverse language and grammar with its own localised aesthetics. Localized skills o

From Centre to Centrifugal Dispersion of the Maritime ‘melayu’ Culture: Modelling the Regional Reverberations of the Medieval Melaka Empire New
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

This paper attempts to reconstruct the famed city of Melaka at its height in the 15th and 16th centuries, to its subsequent dispersion in the 17th to 19th centuries. Melaka’s cultural-political influences and impact as a center of the common Melayu based culture and civilisation can be gauged fromits original center in Melaka city as its initial

Effects of Drying Methods on the Characteristics of Rambutan (Nephelium Lappaceum L.) Seed Fat: an Optimisation Approach New
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

The pre-treatment of oilseeds prior to extraction process may affect oil yield and quality. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of two drying methods on rambutan seed fat (RSF) yield and their oxidative stability, physicochemical properties, and crystal morphology. Response surface methodology (RSM) was used in the optimisation and

Modulations of Identities: a Regional Facade Design Resource from the Aristocratic Vernacular New
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

The paper discusses and describes a range of templates, models and variations of tropicalised modulation of facades and recesses from in the local vernacular which convey an aesthetic sense of the region, to counter the homogeneity of modern facades. These range of identified Malay-Nusantara are abstracted from elevations of mansions and palaces wh
