Enhancing face recognition using Directional Filter Banks
(
Elsevier Inc.
, 2013 , Article)
Face recognition is an increasingly important problem in biometric applications; consequently many recognition algorithms have been proposed during the last three decades. It is accepted that the use of a pre-processing ...

(
SpringerLink
, 2013 , Article)
With the increase of an ageing population and chronic diseases, society becomes more health conscious and patients become "health consumers" looking for better health management. People's perception is shifting towards ...
Capacity and delay analysis for data gathering with compressive sensing in wireless sensor networks
(2013 , Article)
Compressive sensing (CS) provides a new paradigm for efficient data gathering in wireless sensor networks (WSNs). In this paper, with the assumption that sensor data is sparse we apply the theory of CS to data gathering ...
Influence of solution chemistry on Cr(VI) reduction and complexation onto date-pits/tea-waste biomaterials
(2013 , Article)
Tea waste (TW) and Date pits (DP) were investigated for their potential to remove toxic Cr(VI) ions from aqueous solution. Investigations showed that the majority of the bound Cr(VI) ions were reduced to Cr(III) after ...
Ride-through capability of grid-connected brushless cascade DFIG wind turbines in faulty grid conditions-A comparative study
(
IEEE
, 2013 , Article)
Doubly-fed induction generator (DFIG)-based wind turbines (WTs) are reported to suffer reliability problems due to the presence of slip-rings, brushes, and the gearbox. These disadvantages encouraged several research groups ...
Optimum power transmission-based droop control design for multi-terminal HVDC of offshore wind farms
(
IEEE
, 2013 , Article)
Power generation through wind is expected to play a major role in the world's future energy portfolio. Nevertheless, wind power integration remains a challenging research area due to the special characteristics of wind ...
Highly stable nanoporous sulfur-bridged covalent organic polymers for carbon dioxide removal
(
John Wiley & Sons, Ltd
, 2013 , Article)
Carbon dioxide capture and separation requires robust solids that can stand harsh environments where a hot mixture of gases is often found. Herein, the first and comprehensive syntheses of porous sulfur-bridged covalent ...
