In this paper, we propose a novel face recognition system based on fusing thermal and visible descriptors.The proposed approach is divided in two steps: training and validation.In the training stage, the system obtained the optimal weights from the particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm to maximize the recognition rates obtained from different
Because of the frequent emergence of novel microbial species and Lotion the re-emergence of genetic variants of hitherto known microbes, the global healthcare system, and human health has been thrown into jeopardy.Also, certain microbes that possess the ability to develop multi-drug resistance (MDR) have limited the treatment options in cases of se
The interaction between the heart and large arteries represent a not fully understood process, which results from the integration of pressure wave generation, flow ejection, wave travel and reflection, and geometric mismatch between structures.Left ventricular (LV) mass and geometry, two independent predictors of worse cardiac outcomes, are modelle
Background: Pedophilic disorder is characterized by increased sexual interest towards children, with comparatively lesser interest towards adults.In real life, the behavior of subjects with pedophilic disorder is shaped by evaluative processes in response to sexually relevant cues.Therefore, brain activation during anticipation of sexually relevant
