Problem statement: Deaf and dumb needs assistance from a technical box that takes movements of lips to identify the words. This technical article provided appropriate model implementation of flexible lip model for better visual lip reading system. Approach: From the frame sequence of words, Active Shape Model (ASM) based lip model provided local tracking and extraction of geometric lip-feature....

In order to estimate and evaluate the blackout consequence in distribution network, a comprehensive evaluation index system including seven indexes was built, in which the blackouts loss for both users and power companies are fully considered. A comprehensive evaluation model based on AHP and improved grey clustering decision model was provided to evaluate the blackout consequence of different ...

The Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) proposed by T. L. Saaty has been widely used in decision making. Inner dependence method AHP is used for cases in which criteria or alternatives are not independent enough and using the original AHP or inner dependence AHP may cause results to lose reliability because the comparison matrix is not necessarily sufficiently consistent. In such cases, fuzzy repr...

Anosognosia for hemiplegia (AHP) is relatively common among patients who suffer from a stroke. It is characterized as a denial of bodily paralysis and the complexity of studying it is evident. Anosognosia is a neuropsychological deficit of self-awareness and most frequently associated with both cortical and subcortical lesions distributed within the right hemisphere, resulting in a left hemiple...

Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) is major method for decision making, and inner dependence AHP is used for cases in which criteria or/and alternatives are not independent enough. Using the original AHP or inner dependence AHP may cause results that cannot have enough reliability because of the inconsistency of the comparison matrix. In such cases, fuzzy representation for weighting criteria or/...

This paper proposes a decision support model to determine the contribution of urban region in the National Target Total Fertility Rate using analytical hierarchical Process (AHP). The proposed model supports in regional sustainability developing regarding family planning programs by determining and reducing the contribution of each governorate in Urban region of TFR and its fertility rate takin...

The selection of multi-functional teams is a key issue in problem solving. Currently there are no papers in the literature that discuss analytical approaches to forming teams. Furthermore, no comprehensive model exists to prioritize team membership based on customer requirements or product characteristics. To deal with the underlying complexities of the team selection process, a methodology for...
