A market basket survey of As, Zn and Se in rice imports in Qatar: Health implications
(
Elsevier
, 2014 , Article)
Qatar is dependent on importation of rice, its staple dish, and is therefore susceptible to compromises of food quality in the global market. This market basket study assesses potential health risks of As exposure from ...
Surface modification of low-density polyethylene with poly(2-ethyl-2- oxazoline) using a low-pressure plasma treatment
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2014 , Article)
Low-density polyethylene (LDPE) is a suitable polymer for biomedical applications due to its good physiochemical properties, but its insufficient biocompatibility is often an issue. Therefore, biocompatible substances such ...
Seismic detection of a sinkhole using spectral-based analysis
(
Society of Exploration Geophysicists
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
Seismic data recorded during a survey in the vicinity of a sinkhole revealed distinct resonances at 70 Hz. Frequency domain data inversion based on exact modeling produced effective elastic parameters for the location over ...
Viscoelastic and photo-actuation studies of composites based on polystyrene-grafted carbon nanotubes and styrene-b-isoprene-b-styrene block copolymer
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2014 , Article)
Photoactuating composites based on the linear triblock copolymer polystyrene-b-polyisoprene-b-polystyrene (SIS) were prepared by incorporation of polystyrene-modified multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT-PS). Modification ...
Retinal image enhancement using Laplacian pyramidal multi-scaling
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
Early detection of retinal diseases is important to avoid complications and permanent vision loss. In this paper retinal neovascularization and molecular degeneration has been emphasized. Neovascularization is in form of ...
Embedded wearable EEG seizure detection in ambulatory state
(
UK Simulation Society
, 2014 , Article)
This paper describes a classification method is presented using a Fuzzy System to detect the occurrences of Partial Seizures from Epilepsy data, which can be implemented in any embedded system as a wearable detection system. ...
Intelligent Fuzzy Classifier for pre-seizure detection from real epileptic data
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
In this paper, a classification method is presented using an Fuzzy Inference Engine to detect the incidences of pre-seizures in real/raw Epilepsy data. The system distinguishes between 'Normal', 'Pre-Seizure' and 'Seizure' ...
Wirelessly controlled mimicing humanoid robot
(
IEEE
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
Educational humanoid robots have started to find there place in institutions for children with special needs and Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) children therapy centers. Most of the humanoid robots are expensive, or come ...
Detection of partial seizure: An application of fuzzy rule system for wearable ambulatory systems
(
IEEE
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
Electroencephalography (EEG) plays an intelligent role, especially EEG based health diagnosis of brain disorder, as well as brain-computer interface (BCI) applications. One such research field is related to epilepsy. The ...
