Detection of atrial fibrillation in ECG hand-held devices using a random forest classifier
(
IEEE Computer Society
, 2017 , Conference Paper)
Atrial Fibrillation (AF) is characterized by chaotic electrical impulses in the atria, which leads to irregular heartbeats and can develop blood clots and stroke. Therefore, early detection of AF is crucial for increasing ...
Ground-borne vibrations due to railway traffic in urbanized areas: A numerical study about traffic in trench cross-sections
(
National Technical University of Athens
, 2017 , Conference Paper)
Modern cities require efficient mass transportation systems like subway and railway networks. Due to the lack of available space and also due to environmental concerns, it is usually preferable to use the underground space ...
Development of novel thin film composite reverse osmosis membranes for desalination
(
American Institute of Physics Inc.
, 2019 , Conference Paper)
Microporous Polyetherimide (PEI) membranes were prepared by wet phase inversion at different temperatures. The thin film composites (TFC) of polyamide on microporous PEI were prepared using meta-Phenylenediamine (MPD) and ...
Numerical conformal mapping onto the entire complex plane bounded with finite straight slit and logarithmic spiral slits
(
Institute of Physics Publishing
, 2019 , Conference Paper)
This paper presents a fast boundary integral equation method with for computing conformal mappings of multiply connected regions. We consider the canonical region consists of the entire complex plane bounded by a finite ...
HW/SW co-design based implementation of Gas discrimination
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
A gas discrimination system is mainly made of two parts, the sensing part and the processing part. As an alternative solution to pure software or hardware implementation of the processing part of a gas identification system, ...
Determination of Bromate, Perchlorate and selected ions in drinking water supplies in Qatar
(
OMICS
, 2017 , Conference Paper)
About 99% of the potable water used in Qatar is desalinated and Qataris spend approximately 15 million dollars in importing bottled water (90 million L), as the public thinks it is of better quality than the tap water. ...
Artificial Neural Network versus Linear Models Forecasting Doha Stock Market
(
Institute of Physics Publishing
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
The purpose of this study is to determine the instability of Doha stock market and develop forecasting models. Linear time series models are used and compared with a nonlinear Artificial Neural Network (ANN) namely Multilayer ...
Isolation, screening and activity of hydrocarbon-degrading bacteria from harsh soils
(
Avestia Publishing
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
The study of microbial communities in relation to their ecology, interaction, and genetics must be covered in Qatar with special soil, weather and water. Microorganisms of an environment never having been exposed to such ...
A practical approach to CO2 sequestration: Reactions with high salinity water
(
OMICS
, 2017 , Conference Paper)
Carbon dioxide is known to be a major contributor to global warming and climate change and hence has an adverse effect on environmental sustainability. CO2 is emitted by various activities associated with industrial processes ...
Behaviour of fibre reinforced concrete using steel slag coarse aggregate produced in Qatar
(
EDP Sciences
, 2017 , Conference Paper)
The state of Qatar suffers from the shortage of natural resources needed for concrete production. Therefore, it is essential to investigate the feasibility of using by-product recycled materials as aggregates to maintain ...
