Veterinary Medicine Engineering Do cephalopods change colour when under distress? How to measure heart rate simultaneously on the three hearts of a oyster? This manuscript introduces and discusses the challenges veterinarians face daily when assessing and treating animals and the opportunities to overcome these challenges utilizing engineering tools. Modern veterinary allied to sustainable engineering will […]

Eggs Detection Using Otsu Thresholding Method Egg selection process can be performed by either natural or artificial way. The latter can be done by using image processing. It is segmenting the image of an egg to obtain objects contained in the image. This study is designed to identify fertile and infertile egg by using Otsu

Finding Matrimonial Circuits in some AmerindianKinship Networks We consider the problem of deciding the existenceof matrimonial circuits, and finding implexa in kinship networks.These networks can be modeled by acyclic digraphs. A mat-rimonial circuit can be seen as vertex-disjoint directed pathsfrom special starting to special ending vertices of these acyclicdigraphs. An implex is the set of

Deep CNNs With Spatially Weighted Pooling for Fine-Grained Car Recognition Fine-grained car recognition aims to recognize thecategory information of a car, such as car make, car model,or even the year of manufacture. A number of recent studieshave shown that a deep convolutional neural network (DCNN)trained on a large-scale data set can achieve impressive resultsat a

A model to promote citizen driven government in a Smart City Probably the most valuable resource of a city is its residents. Even so, in some cases, smart city initiatives are launched without the citizens’ evaluation of the improvements made to their city. We propose a model to enhance citizen participation in order to support

AUTOMATED BLOOD BANK SYSTEM USING RASPBERRY PI —“Raspberry pi based blood bank system” proposed to bring blood donors to the one place. The aim of this system is to fulfill every blood request by using android application and raspberry pi. In the proposed system, data about the donors will be collected by using android application

NFC-based Smart Notification System for Hospital Discharge Process and Bed Management An efficient discharge workflow with objective to minimize the turnaround time upon discharge of a patient in a typical hospital environment is proposed. The implemented workflow, which relies on a near-field-communication (NFC)-based patient discharge event, triggers a sequence of notifications and actions both by
