Modeling of Human Upper Body for Sign Language Recognition New
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Sign Language Recognition systems require not only the hand motion trajectory to be classified but also facial features, Human Upper Body (HUB) and hand position with respect to other HUB parts. Head, face, forehead, shoulders and chest are very crucial parts that can carry a lot of positioning information of hand gestures in gesture classification

Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Vision-based hand posture detection and tracking is an important issue for Human to Computer Interaction applications. The performance of recognition system fIrst depends on the process of getting effIcient features to represent pattern characteristics [1]. There is no algorithm which shows how to select the representation or choose the features [2

Review on Hand Gesture Recognition New

Axisymmetric Vibration Analysis of Isotropic Circular Plate with Attached Annular Piezoceramic Plate New
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

An axisymmetric vibration analysis of an isotropic circular plate with a piezoceramic annular plate attached to it is presented. The annular plate is attached at the circular plate edge so that the radius of the circular plate is the inner radius of the annular plate. The piezoceramic annular plate is used as the radial in-plane load source. A free

Equilibrium Linguistic Computation Method for Fuzzy Group Decision Making New
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

This paper proposes an equilibrium computation method using linguistic variables based on the conflicting bifuzzy sets. The linguistic terms were defined and associated with the triangular fuzzy number as well as the labeling system in the early stages. Then, the negation operator was introduced and the bifuzzy approaches were employed to derive th
