Creep and shrinkage are such properties that will occur in concrete when they are under load and exposed to surrounding. Since this property will cause deformation which may decrease the design strength of the concrete, it is necessary to do have more knowledge on this phenomenon. So, we will study the effect of creep on 7 and 14 days of cured time of specimens which sealed or unsealed will be ...

Offline handwritten character recognition has been one of the most engrossing and challenging research areas in the field of pattern recognition in the recent years. Offline handwritten character recognition is a very problematic research area because writing styles may vary from one user to another. In this paper a proposed technique for offline handwritten Gurmukhi character recognition has b...

many researchers adopt local binary pattern for pattern analysis. however, the long histogram created by local binary pattern is not suitable for large-scale facial database. this paper presents a simple facial pattern descriptor for facial expression recognition. local pattern is computed based on local gradient flow from one side to another side through the center pixel in a 3x3 pixels region...

Holoscopic 3D imaging is a true 3D imaging system mimics fly’s eye technique to acquire a true 3D optical model of a real scene. To reconstruct the 3D image computationally, an efficient implementation of an Auto-Feature-Edge (AFE) descriptor algorithm is required that provides an individual feature detector for integration of 3D information to locate objects in the scene. The AFE descriptor pl...

This dissertation shows that existing functional tests of software features can be used by a developer unfamiliar with the software system to identify source code relevant to those features as well as understand why the source code is relevant. There have been prior techniques to locate features in source code which can be roughly broken down into techniques that use static analysis and those t...

We provide a supervised speech-independent voice recognition technique in this paper. In the feature extraction stage we propose a mel-cepstral based approach. Our feature vector classification method uses a special nonlinear metric, derived from the Hausdorff distance for sets, and a minimum mean distance classifier. Keywords—Text-independent speaker recognition, mel cepstral analysis, speech ...

irony is a technique in figurative language which is very common in the works of mahdi akhavaan saales and can be considered as a prominent feature in his style. although irony is used as a common technique by many iranian writers, many critics have not studied it fully. the author of this article studies irony in the works of mahdi akhavaan saales.

The pixels of an image are grouped into several regions for segmentation. In segmentation technique the texture feature parameter is an image analysis technique in the field of Computer vision. In the Segmentation field, there are many techniques are used to segment the images .The proposed approach is to analyze and compare the gray level texture feature techniques, number of clusters, Fuzzy C...
