Researchers have studied open innovation by focusing primarily on big organizations. With digitization, the adoption of open innovation has become widespread, as there is broader access to cheaper and better information ...

Food waste is one of the challenging issues humans are facing. A third of the food produced in the world is wasted at various points along the food supply chain. Food waste can be reduced by developing technology that can ...

Liver and liver tumor segmentation from 3D volumetric images has been an active research area in the medical image processing domain for the last few decades. The existence of other organs such as the heart, spleen, stomach, ...

Nanofluids have recently triggered a substantial scientific interest as cooling media. However, their stability is challenging for successful engagement in industrial applications. Different factors, including temperature, ...

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 ...

This paper presents an adaptive method for interference suppression in the Wigner-Ville distribution. The structure of the artifacts in the Wigner-Ville distribution has been analyzed to optimally mask the signal Wigner-Ville ...

This paper demonstrates the application of fuzzy systems and Z-transform for electric load modeling in the presence and/or absence of harmonics. The problem is formulated as one of linear optimization, where the objective ...

Monitoring fetal wellbeing is a compelling problem in modern obstetrics. Clinicians have become increasingly aware of the link between fetal activity (movement), well-being, and later developmental outcome. We have recently ...

Newborn EEG is a complex multiple channel signal that displays nonstationary and nonlinear characteristics. Recent studies have focussed on characterizing the manifestation of seizure on the EEG for the purpose of automated ...

Computation of a time-frequency distribution (TFD) requires a discrete version of the continuous distribution. This discrete TFD (DTFD) should be free from aliasing and conserve all the important mathematical properties ...
