Improving performance of deblocking techniques using image fusion
(2012 , Conference Paper)
Block based transform coding is the most popular technique for image and video compression. However, images compressed using block based algorithms exhibit blocking which is one of the most annoying artifacts in compressed ...
An integrated sustainable quality management framework for quality-related research
(
IEOM Society
, 2021 , Conference Paper)
The existence of synergies between several quality management systems and sustainability has spurred great interest in better understanding the sustainable quality management (SQM) concept over the past decade. This paper ...
Non-invasivemonitoring of fetal movements using time-frequency features of accelerometry
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
This paper presents a time-frequency approach for fetal movement monitoring which is based on the instantaneous amplitude (IA) and instantaneous frequency (IF) of signals collected using 3axial accelerometers placed over ...
Generalised phase synchrony within multivariate signals: An emerging concept in time-frequency analysis
(2012 , Conference Paper)
This paper introduces the notion of the instantaneous frequency (IF) based generalized phase synchrony in time-frequency analysis based on the concept of cointegration. This phase synchrony is then quantified by investigating ...
Optimizing university campus shuttle bus congestion focusing on system effectiveness and reliability: A combined modeling based-routing approach
(
IEOM Society
, 2021 , Conference Paper)
Increased vehicular queuing inside universities has amounted to pressing concerns for staff and students, distorting their time schedules to reach classes and office buildings on time. This paper attempts to alter the ...
Signal content estimation based on the short-term time-frequency Rényi entropy of the S-method time-frequency distribution
(2012 , Conference Paper)
A key characteristic of a nonstationary signal, when analyzed in the time-frequency domain, is the signal complexity, quantified as the number of components in the signal. This paper describes a method for the estimation ...
Qatari Media Roles in Maximizing the Qatari Soft Power and Overcoming the Glocal Social Challenges of Hosting World Cup 2022
(
Hamad bin Khalifa University Press (HBKU Press)
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
From the moment in 2010 when the World Cup was awarded to the tiny oil-rich nation with little soccer history, the event had been shrouded in controversy. Allegations of corruption abounded and investigations commissioned. ...
Asymptotic behaviour of contraction non-autonomous semi-flows in a Banach space: Application to first-order hyperbolic PDEs
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
The asymptotic behaviour is studied for a class of non-autonomous infinite-dimensional non-linear dissipative systems. This is achieved by using the concept of contraction semi-flow, which is a generalization of contraction ...
Reduced graphene oxide impregnated gelma hydrogel promotes angiogenic activity in chick embryo model
(
Society for Biomaterials
, 2019 , Conference Paper)
Statement of Purpose: Non-healing or slow healing of chronic wounds is among the serious complications of diabetes. Decrease in blood supply along with oxygen, nutrients and growth factors leads to reduced proliferation ...
Advanced wastewater treatment using microalgae: Effect of temperature on removal of nutrients and organic carbon
(
Institute of Physics Publishing
, 2017 , Conference Paper)
This study evaluated the use of mixed indigenous microalgae (MIMA) as a treatment process for wastewaters and CO2 capturing technology at different temperatures. The study follows the growth rate of MIMA, CO2 Capturing ...
