Face recognition in real-world images mostly relies on three successive steps: face detection, alignment and identification. The second step of face alignment is crucial as the bounding boxes produced by robust face detection algorithms are still too imprecise for most face recognition techniques, i.e. they show slight variations in position, orientation and scale. We present a novel technique ...

This research aims to examine the effect of export and import on economic growth. The data used are time series consisting export, in period 2004Q1-2018Q1. test results using autoregressive distributed lag (ARDL) model indicates that short long run, there is In every 1% decline lead 1.17% increase growth, while 1.83% growth.Keywords: Export, import, ARDL modelJEL Classifications: C130, F140, F4...

Most studies that have used Kanizsa-type illusory figures to investigate perceptual completion have treated the crisp bounding illusory contours (ICs) and the enclosed region as nondissociable stimulus attributes. However, there is evidence that enclosed "salient regions" (SRs; Stanley & Rubin, 2003) are detected even in cases when bounding ICs are not perceptually completed. Here we used appar...

In this study, the causal-effect between carbon dioxide emissions and forestry production and trade was investigated in Ghana by employing a data spanning from 1961 to 2014 by using the VECM and ARDL model. Evidence of the long-run equilibrium relationship in the VECM shows that, a 1% increase in veneer sheet production reduces carbon dioxide emissions by 1.47% in the long-run. There was eviden...

Unlike FEM (Finite Element Method), which provides an accurate deformation of soft objects, FFD (Free Form Deformation) based methods have been widely used for a quick and responsive representation of deformable objects in real-time applications such as computer games, animations, or simulations. The FFD-AABB (Free Form Deformation Axis Aligned Bounding Box) algorithm was also suggested to addr...

The motivation of the study is to gauge impact financial development, FDI, Technological innovation, and good governance on environmental degradation in Arab Nation for period 1991–2019. Several techniques have implemented, including error correction-based cointegration, cross-sectional ARDL, Non-linear ARDL Heterogeneous causality test directional causality. results Slope homogeneity, CSD unit...

The are explained M2 money supply, one-month interest rates bank deposits, one-week repo rate, 10-year government bond. paper, Bitcoin's considered in TL. stationary behaviour variables investigated ADF test and...

Bu çalışmada, Türkiye için cari denge ile büyüme, para arzı ve reel döviz kuru değişkenleri arasındaki ilişki, 2003Q1-2020Q4 dönemi Gecikmesi Dağıtılmış Otoregressif Sınır Testi (ARDL) Granger Nedensellik kullanılarak analiz edilmiştir. Çalışmada bağımlı değişken olarak enerji hariç (EHCD) değişkeni kullanılmıştır. Analiz sonuçlarına göre, büyüme (BUY) (RDK) EHCD arasında %5 anlamlılık seviyesi...
