In this paper a stochastic generalisation of the standard Linde-BuzoGray (LBG) approach to vector quantiser (VQ) design is presented, in which the encoder is implemented as the sampling of a vector of code indices from a probability distribution derived from the input vector, and the decoder is implemented as a superposition of reconstruction vectors, and the stochastic VQ is optimised using a ...

In the current era, most of the digital information in the form of multimedia with a giant share of videos. Videos do have audio and visual content where the visual content has number of frames put in a sequence. Most of the consecutive frames do have very little discriminative contents. In video summarization process, several frames containing similar information are needed to get processed. T...

X-ray mammography is the most common investigation technique used by radiologists in the screening, and diagnosis of breast cancer. The ability to improve diagnostic information from medical images can be enhanced by designing computer processing algorithms that is why we proposed new algorithm to detect cancer in mammogram breast cancer images. In this paper we proposed segmentation using vect...

The idea of outsourcing geospatial data creation tasks to the crowd (volunteered geographic information, VGI) has become quite popular in the field of geographic information science (GIScience). As one approach to VGI, location-based games (LBGs) have been shown to be successful in motivating non-expert users to collect and tag geospatial data. However, the central VGI problem of data quality h...

Off the US west coast, fishery development efforts have led to recent recommendation for authorization of deep-set buoy gear (DSBG) and linked (LBG), two commercial types targeting swordfish at depth during day. Because new configurations interact with bigeye thresher sharks (Alopias superciliosus), a large pelagic species that is not typically retained sale, this work has focused on documentin...

At the present time, Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) has swiftly evolved and emerged, picture data that is collected by terminal devices or IoT nodes are tied to user's private data. The use image sensors as an automation tool for IIoT increasingly becoming more common. Due fact this organisation transfers enormous number photographs at any one most significant issues it reducing total qua...

BACKGROUND Meals begin and end subjectively. We trained healthy subjects to recognize initial hunger as a preprandial target for meal consumption, and to create a "recognizing hunger" or initial hunger meal pattern. OBJECTIVE Training subjects to "recognize hunger" lowers blood glucose (BG) and improves energy balance, and lowers metabolic risks and bodyweight. A minority may have low BG and ...

Carob products are good sources of bioactive compound/dietary fiber having beneficial effects on cardiovascular and gastrointestinal diseases. Other energy like tahini also improves physicochemical properties foods. This study demonstrated the possibility for 50% replacement cocoa powder by carob flour effect Locust Bean Gum (LBG) Xanthan (XN) consumer acceptability physical carob-based snacks....

Linear ball guideways (LBGs) have several advantages for the precise positioning control of machine tools. However, ball-groove contact behaviour leads to poor dynamic compliance, which induces a significant nonlinear guideway and chatter stability. The nonlinearity complicates prediction due dependence stiffness. This approach aims offer an industrially orientated method estimation stability s...
