There is a wide evidence that sustainable mobility is not only a technological question, automotive technology will be part of the solution as a necessary but not sufficient condition, sufficiency is emerging as a combination of a paradigm shift from car ownership to vehicle usage consequence of socio-economic changes, with the application of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) tha...

We study a new variant of the well-studied vehicle routing problem with time windows (VRPTW), called fragility-constrained VRPTW, which assumes that (1) capacity is organized in multiple identical stacks; (2) all items picked up at customer are either “fragile” or not; (3) no nonfragile can be put on top fragile item (the fragility constraint); and (4) en route load rearrangement possible. firs...

Introduction: Due to the use of ionizing radiation in the CT scan, optimal parameters should be used to reduce the risk of cancer in patients who are constantly exposed to X-rays. The aim of this study was to optimize the parameters used in CT scan of cervical vertebrae and neck soft tissue with minimal loss of image quality   Materials and Methods: In this s...

In view of the inefficiency and cheating in time attendance, a face recognition attendance management system has been developed. The is developed under Windows 10 using Java language MySql database. After user logs on to system, click punch-in button. calls camera through openCV take pictures, then matches this photo with If match successful, can punch successfully. full day's work calculated b...

A variety of modifications have been employed to learning vector quantization (LVQ) algorithms using either crisp or soft windows for selection of data. Although these schemes have been shown in practice to improve performance, a theoretical study on the influence of windows has so far been limited. Here we rigorously analyze the influence of windows in a controlled environment of gaussian mixt...
