Investigation of the steps involved in the difference of susceptibility of Ephestia kuehniella and Spodoptera littoralis to the Bacillus thuringiensis Vip3Aa16 toxin
(
Elsevier
, 2011 , Article)
BUPM95 is a Bacillus thuringiensis subsp. kurstaki strain producing the Vip3Aa16 toxin with an interesting insecticidal activity against the Lepidopteran larvae Ephestia kuehniella. Study of different steps in the mode of ...
Image quality metrics based multifocus image fusion
(
IEEE
, 2011 , Conference Paper)
We describe an innovative methodology for block based multifocus
image fusion in the spatial domain. The main idea is
to use blind or no reference blur metrics for image fusion applications.
Two blur quality metrics ...
Time-frequency detection of slowly varying periodic signals with harmonics: Methods and performance evaluation
(2011 , Article)
We consider the problem of detecting an unknown signal from an unknown noise type. We restrict the signal type to a class of slowly varying periodic signals with harmonic components, a class which includes real signals ...
Efficient online WiFi delivery of layered-coding media using inter-layer network coding
(
IEEE
, 2011 , Conference Paper)
A primary challenge in multicasting video in a wireless LAN to multiple clients is to deal with the client diversity - clients may have different channel characteristics and hence receive different numbers of transmissions ...
Potato-Herb Synergies as Food Designs for Hyperglycemia and Hypertension Management
(
Wiley-Blackwell
, 2011 , Book chapter)
The incidence of diabetes mellitus and cardiovascular diseases is increasing at a rapid rate globally. Adult on-set type II diabetes, which is closely associated with obesity, is reported to be 90-95% of all diabetic cases ...
Drift optimization of high-rise buildings in earthquake zones
(
John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
, 2011 , Article)
This paper presents a Drift Design Structural Model (DDSM) for the design optimization of high-rise buildings in seismic zones. The model is formulated as a Generalized Single Degree of Freedom System subjected to equivalent ...
Round-Robin sequential forward selection algorithm for prostate cancer classification and diagnosis using multispectral imagery
(
Springer
, 2011 , Article)
This paper proposes an automatic classification system for the use in prostate cancer diagnosis. The system aims to detect and classify prostatic tissue textures captured from microscopic samples taken from needle biopsies. ...
Fault detection and isolation: Multi-vehicle unmanned systems
(
Springer New York
, 2011 , Book)
Fault Detection and Isolation: Multi-Vehicle Unmanned Systems deals with the design and development of fault detection and isolation algorithms for unmanned vehicles such as spacecraft, aerial drones and other related ...
Asymptotic formulae for eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of q-Sturm-Liouville problems
(
WILEY-VCH Verlag
, 2011 , Article)
We investigate the asymptotic behavior of the eigenvalues and the eigenfunctions of q-Sturm-Liouville eigenvalue problems. For this aim we study the asymptotic behavior of q-trigonometric functions as well as fundamental ...

(
John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
, 2011 , Article)
Diabetes is a global epidemic and the highest prevalence rates in the world are found in Gulf Corporation Council countries, including Qatar. The country's Supreme Council of Health has recognised its significant health ...
