Nanosizing is a suitable method to enhance the dissolution rate and therefore the bioavailability of poorly soluble drugs. The success of the particle size reduction processes depends on critical factors such as the employed technology, equipment, and drug physicochemical properties. High pressure homogenization and wet bead milling are standard comminution techniques that have been already emp...

Shapes and texture image recognition usage is an essential branch of pattern recognition. It is made up of techniques that aim at extracting information from images via human knowledge and works. Local Binary Pattern (LBP) ensures encoding global and local information and scaling invariance by introducing a look-up table to reflect the uniformity structure of an object. However, edge direction ...

Innovation is important for a firm`s success and has been shown to be essentially influenced by absorptive capacity (ACAP). ACAP has been conceptualized by various dimensions that, in turn, rest on diverse antecedents. Currently, little is known about the impact of information systems (IS) on these dimensions of ACAP. Drawing on the complementarity argument that IS will only render an effect if...

In this paper we draw from the knowledge-based view of the firm and dynamic capabilities theory to examine the effects of IT competencies on the innovation outcomes in firms. We argue that IT competencies impact product innovation by enhancing component knowledge such as technological and market knowledge of the firm. We are also posit that IT competencies allow firms to develop combinative cap...

Recent years have witnessed a surge of interest in hypergraph-based transductive image classification. Hypergraph-based transductive learning models the high-order relationship of samples by using a hyperedge to link multiple samples. In order to extend the high-order relationship of samples, we incorporate linear correlation of sparse representation to hypergraph learning framework to improve ...

A novel and versatile DNA packaging approach was developed by grafting DNA-binding oligopeptides onto a polymer scaffold to combinatively self-assemble with DNA into compact nanostructures.
