Dot pattern analysis and matching is necessary for many of the image analysis and pattern recognition problems. This paper uses local binary pattern for extracting the Dot pattern image features which is first pre-processed (Re-constructed, Rotated, Enhanced). It states that only the more discriminated features can be retained by discarding the less discriminated features using Genetic Algorith...

Research in Industrial/Organizational (I/O) psychology has generally focused on objective measures of employment discrimination and has virtually neglected individuals’ subjective perceptions as to whether a selection or promotion process is discriminatory or not. This paper presents two theoretical models as organizing frameworks to explain candidates’ likelihood of perceiving that discriminat...

a new guideline for proper allocation of multipoles in the multiple multipole method (mmp) is proposed. in an ‘a posteriori’ approach, subspace fitting (ssf) is used to find the best location of multipole expansions for the two dimensional dielectric scattering problem. it is shown that the best location of multipole expansions (regarding their global approximating power) coincides with the med...

background: it has been suggested that nutrition might play a role in the etiology of multiple sclerosis (ms). however, dietary patterns associated with ms risk are unknown. this study was conducted to compare the dietary patterns of patients with ms and healthy controls to find the relationship between dietary patterns and ms. methods: usual dietary intake of 75 women with relapsing/remitting ...

Conventional methods for fecal source tracking typically use single biomarkers to systematically identify or exclude sources. High-throughput DNA sequence analysis can potentially identify all sources of microbial contaminants in a single test by measuring the total diversity of fecal microbial communities. In this study, we used phylogenetic microarray analysis to determine the comprehensive s...
