Analog Gaussian basis circuit integrated with a non-volatile storage memory cell is described. Hardware implementations of the Gaussian basis circuit with on-chip learning is needed for real time and portable applications. Each Gaussian basis cell is symbiotically interlinked with its own longterm storage memory cell forming a highly localized architecture. Experimental results of both the Gaus...

mohammad-karim pirnia, one of the most prominent scholars of the history of iranian architecture, has recorded two major achievements: the principles of iranian architecture and the stylistics of iranian architecture. in this article we will discuss his suggested principles for iranian architecture. for this purpose, we will first show how his five principles have evolved and completed through ...

A new evidential fusion architecture is proposed to build an hybrid artificial intelligent system for people surveillance in wide open areas. Authorized people and intruders are identified and localized thanks to the joint employment of cameras and RFID tags. Complex Event Processing and Transferable Belief Model are exploited for handling noisy data and uncertainty propagation. Experimental re...

the localized nature of the communication between cells, load balancing is easier to predict and dynamically evaluate. Cost-based abduction is an important problem in reasoning in uncertainty with applications in medical diagnostics, natural language processing, belief revision, and automated planning. In this paper, we will describe a membrane architecture used to search for optimal solutions ...

We describe an ultrathin solar cell architecture that combines the benefits of both plasmonic photovoltaics and traditional antireflection coatings. Spatially resolved electron generation rates are used to determine the total integrated current improvement under AM1.5G solar illumination, which can reach a factor of 1.8. The frequency-dependent absorption is found to strongly correlate with the...

The precise face and eyes detection is crucial in many Human-Machine Interface system. The important issue is the reliable object detection method. In this paper we present the architecture of a 3-stage face and eye detection system based on the Haar Cascade Classifiers. By applying the proposed system to the set of 10000 test images the 94% of the eyes were properly detected and precisely loca...

The purpose of this research is to investigate the ability to redefine the components and indicators of popular architecture facades in contemporary architecture. The research method is content analysis and descriptive-analytic and survey with semiotic and Delphi technique. At first, popular architecture is analyzed using the descriptive and analytical method. Next, 14 components of the popular...

Localized scalp hair loss has different causes which alopecia areata, trichotillomania, tinea capitis and early lupus erythematosus are the most important ones. There are several reports of localized alopecia after tick and flea bites and bee stings, but there is only one report of ant-induced alopecia in the literature. We report herein two cases of alopecia induced by ants of genus Phei...

Abstract Climate has an important effect on operation of the traditional building architecture and its energy consumption in desert area of Iran. Absence of water and unpleasant climate of these regions compelled people to build their houses with some strategies based on effective energy expenditure. Therefore, builders try to use natural climatic strategies for confronting hard situations. Nar...
