We review the current status of different mode-identification techniques based on observed line-profile variations. Three basic methods are currently available to identify the non-radial pulsation modes. These three methods are described, together with their different variants. We further present applications to real data, focusing especially on δ Scuti stars. After having discussed all the met...

A document page may contain two or more different scripts. For Optical Character Recognition (OCR) of such a document page, it is necessary to separate different scripts before feeding them to their individual OCR system. In this paper an automatic scheme is presented to identify text lines of different Indian scripts from a document. For the separation task at first the scripts are grouped int...

Differentiating between recent LINE-1 (L1) insertion dimorphisms (LIDs) is predominantly useful for studying not only the transposition mechanism but also population genetics or evolution based on polymorphic markers where the ancestral state is known (i.e., absence of the insertion) (1–5). Previous techniques such as L1 display (1) or ATLAS (2) have identified new LIDs from distinct population...

Writer identification still remains as a challenge area in the field of off-line handwriting recognition because only an image of the handwriting is available. Consequently, some information on the dynamic of writing, which is valuable for identification of writer, is unavailable in the off-line approaches, contrary to the on-line ones where temporal and spatial information about the writing ar...

A combination of on-line HPLC-NMR and off-line chemical investigations has resulted in the identification of the previously reported polyhalogenated monoterpene plocamenone, together with the new structural analogue isoplocamenone from the crude extract of the marine alga Plocamium angustum. On-flow and stop-flow HPLC-NMR analyses (including the acquisition of WET 2D NMR spectra) rapidly assist...

An important key to reconstructing a three-dimensional object depicted by a two-dimensional line drawing projection is face identification. Identification of edge circuits in a 2D projection corresponding to actual faces of a 3D object becomes complex when the projected object is in wireframe representation. This representation is commonly encountered in drawings made during the conceptual desi...
