Freestanding eggshell membrane-based electrodes for high-performance supercapacitors and oxygen evolution reaction
(
Royal Society of Chemistry
, 2015 , Article)
A type of freestanding, light-weight eggshell membrane-based electrode is demonstrated for supercapacitors and for oxygen evolution reaction (OER) catalysis. As a widely available daily waste, eggshell membranes have unique ...
RL-Based Federated Learning Framework Over Blockchain (RL-FL-BC)
(
IEEE
, 2023 , Article)
Federated learning (FL) paradigms aim to amalgamate diverse data properties stored locally at each user, while preserving data privacy through sharing users’ learning experiences and iteratively aggregating their ...
An IoT-based framework for remote fall monitoring
(
Elsevier
, 2021 , Article)
Fall detection is a serious healthcare issue that needs to be solved. Falling without quick medical intervention would lower elderly's chances of survival, especially if living alone. Hence, the need is there for developing ...
DeepWTPCA-L1: A New Deep Face Recognition Model Based on WTPCA-L1 Norm Features
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2021 , Article)
In this paper, we propose a robust face recognition model called DeepWTPCA-L1 using WTPCA-L1 features and a CNN-LSTM architecture. First, WTPCA-L1 algorithm, composed of Three-level decomposition of discrete wavelet transform ...
Financing new entrepreneurship: Credit or microcredit?
(
Elsevier
, 2022 , Article)
Building on the theory of information asymmetry, we investigate the impact of conventional banking versus the impact of microfinance on new entrepreneurship. We use a panel dataset collected from 49 developing countries ...
Influence of anionic surface modifiers on the thermal stability and mechanical properties of layered double hydroxide/polypropylene nanocomposites
(
Royal Society of Chemistry
, 2015 , Article)
Organo-layered double hydroxide/polypropylene (LDH/PP) nanocomposites were successfully synthesized via a solution blending method. As an attempt to improve the compatibility with hydrophobic PP, the LDH surface was modified ...
3-D Stochastic Geometry-based Modeling and Performance Analysis of Efficient Security Enhancement scheme for IoT Systems
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2021 , Article)
Internet of Things (IoT) systems are becoming core building blocks for different services and applications supporting every day’s life. The heterogeneous nature of IoT devices and the complex use scenarios make it ...
Effects of pro-growth policies on employment: evidence of regional disparities
(
Routledge
, 2019 , Article)
The main objective of our research is to study the direct impact of pro-growth economic policies on employment creation globally and regionally, as evidence has countered policy-makers’ expectation that output growth leads ...
Vegetative insecticidal protein of Bacillus thuringiensis BLB459 and its efficiency against Lepidoptera
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2017 , Article)
Bacillus thuringiensis strain BLB459 supernatant showed a promising activity against Lepidopteran pests with extremely damages in the larvae midgut. Investigations of the genes that encode secreted toxin demonstrated that ...
Output Feedback Fault-Tolerant Control of Heterogeneous Multi-Agent Systems
(
Wiley-Blackwell
, 2021 , Article)
This paper investigates the design of an output feedback fault-tolerant control (FTC) scheme for heterogeneous multi-agent systems subject to loss of effectiveness and time-varying additive actuator faults as well as ...
