Abstract Harris hawks optimization (HHO) is a population-based metaheuristic algorithm, inspired by the hunting strategy and cooperative behavior of hawks. In this study, HHO hybridized with 10 different chaotic maps to adjust its critical parameters. Hybridization performed using four methods. First, 15 test functions unimodal multimodal features are used for analysis determine most successful...

the current study was conducted in order to examine the effectiveness of shelf procedure in symptomatic adult patients due to hip dysplasia. this study is retrospective and was performed on patients who had undergone surgery by one orthopaedic surgical team during the past 20 years. twenty-three men and twenty-three women were enrolled in the study with a mean age of 29.3 years at the time of o...

: Many image features are proved to be good candidates for recognition. Among them are edges, lines, corners, junctions or interest points in general. Importance of corner detection in digital images is increasing with increasing work in computer vision in imagery. One of the most promising techniques is the one based on Harris corner detection method. This work describes different approaches t...

Session I 9:30 – 10:45 AM Andrew Miles: Roanoke College Department of Philosophy Good, Evil and Well-being: Sam Harris’ Scientific Approach to Ethics One of the most controversial debates in ethics is how to define Good and Evil. Do “good” actions necessarily adhere to commandments set by a God? Or are there many different, equally valid definitions based on cultural norms? Neuroscientist and a...

Corner detection is a fundamental step in image processing, and it takes an important role in target tracking, image stitching and three-dimension reconstruction. Harris algorithm is widely used in corner detection for simple calculation and its detection result is not affected by image rotation and light intensity changes. Harris algorithm uses integral differential mask to extract the image g...

A φ-irreducible and aperiodic Markov chain with stationary probability distribution will converge to its stationary distribution from almost all starting points. The property of Harris recurrence allows us to replace “almost all” by “all,” which is potentially important when running Markov chain Monte Carlo algorithms. Full-dimensional Metropolis–Hastings algorithms are known to be Harris recur...

In 1841, T. W. Harris published "A Report on the Insects of Massachusetts, Injurious to Vegetation," a seminal work in North American Entomology and one of the first New World publications to describe Lepidoptera species. Although appearing in several subsequent editions, the eight family-group names proposed by Harris were largely overlooked. In summarizing Harris' family-group names, we show ...
