Chenopodium album seedling emergence studies were conducted at nine European and two North American locations comparing local populations with a common population from Denmark (DEN-COM). Mortality risk. Weedy plant life history conforms to the time of mortality risk from either the environment (e.g. frozen soil in the winter) or cropping systems practices (e.g. herbicide use). C. album life his...

As all other human activities, horticulture is accountable for its impact on the resources available, now and in the future, to our societies. The problem is of particular importance in production systems that are often intensive and require high amounts of inputs. To fit with the increasing number of regulations and contracts growers have to respect, tools must be created to evaluate existing ...

Feature extraction is an important step of pattern recognition. This study uses profile based feature extraction and uses Simple Profile (with cropping and without cropping image samples), Contour based feature extraction for recognizing handwritten numerals. The features are computed by using 48 X 48 as a feature length classifier used Back propagation neural network for the classification.. T...

ABSTRACT Eight different 3-year cropping systems, consisting of soybean-canola, soybean-barley, sweet corn-canola, sweet corn-soybean, green bean-sweet corn, canola-sweet corn, barley-clover, and continuous potato (non-rotation control) followed by potato as the third crop in all systems, were established in replicated field plots with two rotation entry points in Presque Isle, ME, in 1998. Cro...

Segmented watermarking is an approach to multiple watermarking that can be used to acknowledge the contribution of multiple authors or to embed a fingerprint code-word, but is susceptible to cropping attacks that discard portions of the watermarked media. Careful selection of the watermark embedding pattern can increase the resilence of a segmented watermark in the presence of cropping attacks....

The aim of our robust technique using watermarking is to reconstruct watermark from geometric attacks. Various geometric transformations, such as rotation, scaling, cropping, shear, translation, resize, scattering, bending, and so on, provides the displacement of some of its picture elements. The existing watermarking algorithms countermeasures the attacks related to pixel positions. In our pap...

This paper describes a high capacity blind video watermarking system invariant to geometrical attacks such as shift, rotation, scaling and cropping. A spatial domain reference watermark is used to obtain invariance to geometric attacks by employing image registration techniques to determine and invert the attacks. A second, high capacity watermark, which carries the data payload, is embedded in...
