feature extraction is a main step in all perceptual image hashing schemes in which robust features will led to better results in perceptual robustness. simplicity, discriminative power, computational efficiency and robustness to illumination changes are counted as distinguished properties of local binary pattern features. in this paper, we investigate the use of local binary patterns for percep...

Two studies to find out Malaysian students’ preferences towards learning using mobile space are conducted. This first study is a survey gathered from 591 secondary school students, age 13 to 17 years old. The main objective of the survey is to acquire relevant data to support a mobile gamebased learning (mGBL) development. The outcome of this survey indicates that almost 60% of the students pre...

The trend of social networking has put in evidence the needs of user in collaborating and sharing information. Most of the business models for those SN are very challenging and may be hardly scalable. Moreover, users prefer to keep under control their content and to have at home personalized views of their preferred services. Thus local community services and content management systems may be o...

The purpose of this study was to identify and evaluate prosocial content of a local children’s television series News Six produced by WBGU-TV, Bowling Green, Ohio. A stratified random sample of 114 programs (228 news stories) broadcast between 1972-2002 was coded for story setting, theme, prosocial messages, and primary message attributes. Results of a nonfrequency content analysis indicate tha...

A new image indexing and retrieval algorithm known as local derivative pattern (LDP_16_2) is proposed in this work. LDP_16_2 histograms are used as features of each image in the data base. LDP_16_2 encodes the higher order derivative information which contains more detailed discriminative features. This property made it a powerful tool for feature extraction of images in the data base. Improved...

It's not common for those involved in the practical and creative world of film and television production to become involved in the arcane world of economic theory. Partly this is because of the dense jargon involved, and partly because the relevance is rarely apparent. Earlier this year, a remarkable document was published attacking SPADA's proposed quota model and hiding behind a torrent of ec...

Digital images make up a large component in the multimedia information. Hence Image authentication has attained a great importance and lead to the development of several image authentication algorithms. This paper proposes a block based watermarking scheme for image authentication based on the edge information extracted from each block. A signature is calculated from each edge block of the imag...

The LFPs is a broadband signal that captures variations of neural population activity over a wide range of time scales. The range of time scales available in LFPs is particularly interesting from the neural coding point of view because it opens up the possibility to investigate whether there are privileged time scales for information processing, a question that has been hotly debated over the l...

In this paper, we investigate the rate at which information is transferred from the scene to the digital processed image in imaging systems using nonlinear Local Normalization. While a formula for the Rate of Information has been used in many studies of linear systems with Gaussian (Normal) signals,1–6 a formula applicable to nonlinear/non-Gaussian systems has not been available until now. We d...
