In these days an image retrieval system has become a challenging task. Many systems based on the text based retrieval but the need of image based retrieval system that takes an image as the input query and retrieves images based on image content is more complicated task. Content Based Image Retrieval is an approach for retrieving semanticallyrelevant images from an image database based on autom...

This contribution provides the first comprehensive overview of extant iconography Jan van Leeuwen († 1378), ‘Good Cook’ at hermitage and later priory Groenendaal in Sonian Forest outside Brussels. On basis a detailed analysis 8 pictorial representations Jan, this article argues that canons instigated Jan’s veneration almost immediately after his death selected three central foci for veneration:...

Marine propulsors are identified as the main contributor to a vessel’s underwater radiated noise result of tonal propeller and broadband emissions caused by its induced cavitation. To reduce signature, spectral limits set for propulsion industry, which can be experimentally obtained complete vessel at full-scale; however, prediction capability sound sources is still rudimentary best. adhere reg...

We describe a Monte Carlo method to approximate the maximum likelihood estimate (MLE), when there are missing data and the observed data likelihood is not available in closed form. This method uses simulated missing data that are independent and identically distributed and independent of the observed data. Our Monte Carlo approximation to the MLE is a consistent and asymptotically normal estima...

Al-Hussaini and Ateya [3−4] obtained the maximum likelihood and Bayes estimates of the parameters, reliability function (rf) and hazard rate function (hrf) of a mixture of two components of truncated type I generalized logistic distribution, TTIGL(β, γ, α), with location parameter β, scale parameter γ and shape parameter α, when the location parameters are equal to zero, when the scale paramete...

estimating maternal mortality level is constantly challenging researchers and planners both in rich and poor countries. in developing countries, particularly in burkina faso where the registration system is not working properly, censuses and surveys are the main providers of maternal mortality estimates. however, censuses provide more reliable data about maternal mortality especially at sub-nat...
