<span>One of the main difficulties facing the certified documents documentary archiving system is checking the stamps system, but, that stamps may be contains complex background and surrounded by unwanted data. Therefore, the main objective of this paper is to isolate background and to remove noise that may be surrounded stamp. Our proposed method comprises of four phases, firstly, we apply k-means algorithm for clustering stamp image into a number of clusters and merged them using ISODATA algorithm. Secondly, we compute mean and standard deviation for each remaining cluster to isolate background cluster from stamp cluster. Thirdly, a region growing algorithm is applied to segment the image and then choosing the connected regi

       This work demonstrates the synthesis and storage of molecular-imprinted polymers (MIP) at room temperature using bulk polymerisation of Metformin (Met) characterized by high sensitivity, low cost, and high stability. To ensure an acceptable adsorption capacity, the research employed 0.8:4:20 mmol ratios of template, monomer, and cross-linking agents for the polymerization. A functional monomer, 2-acrylamido-2-methyl-1-propane sulphonic acid C₇H₁₃NO₄S, was cross-linked with N,N-methylene bisacrylamide C₇H₁₀N₂O₂ to form Met-MIP, which could be characterized using a UV-VIS spectrophotometer at 236 nm, FT-IR spectroscopy, and scanning electron

Buffering of Local anaesthesia (LA) has been suggested as a mechanism to improve injection comfort and hasten the onset of anaesthesia. Aim This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of buffered LA in the extraction of maxillary premolars and molars. Materials and Methods This randomized controlled study included 100 patients who were indicated for extraction of maxillary posterior teeth, they were randomly divided into two groups; a study group that received infiltration of buffered 2% lidocaine hydrochloride with 1:80,000 epinephrine LA, and a control group that received non-buffered 2% lidocaine hydrochloride with 1:80,000 epinephrine LA. The buffering was performed using the Onset® LA buffering system (Onpharma®). The outcome va

One of the challenging and active research topics in the recent years is Facial Expression. This paper presents the method to extract the features from the facial expressions from still images. Feature extraction is very important for classification and recognition process. This paper involve three stages which contain capture the images, pre-processing and feature extractions. This method is very efficient in feature extraction by applying haar wavelet and Karhunen-Loève Transform (KL-T). The database used in this research is from Cohen-Kanade which used six expressions of anger, sadness fear, happiness, disgust and surprise. Features that have been extracted from the image of facial expressions were used as inputs to the neural networ

Abstract:
Eclipta alba is a weed growing in damp, moist puddles distributed in the tropical and subtropical regions, so the most weight of the plant is water, which reached in to 90%. The extraction method by using different solvents (Methanol, Ethanol, Hexane and Aqueous) showed, the best yield with methanol reached to 76%, and the yield decreased with ethanol and hexane reached 55% and 53% respectively, while the minimum yield observed with aqueous hot and cold extraction reached 11% and 5% respectively. The phytochemical compound characterization showed the compounds (Coumarines , Flavones ,Volatile Oil ,Tannins , Saponines , Glycosides ,Carbohydrates ,Alkaloids , Resins) with different percentage. The thin layer chromatography det

In this study the assessment radon concentration in sludge of Oil
Fields in North Oil Company (N.O.C.) of Iraq have been studied
using CR-39 solid–state nuclear track detector technique. A total of
34 samples selected from 12 oil stations in the company have been
placed in the dosimeters. The average radon concentration was found
to be 162.29 Bq/m³ which is fortunately lower than the standard
international limit. The potential alpha energy concentration and
annual effective dose have been calculated. A proportional
relationship between the annual effective dose and radon
concentration within the studied region has been certified.

Research summary

The Quranic discourse focused on a lot of vocabularies that carry goals that help man to acquire good, according to a methodology relies on adopting lofty ideas and values. The individual towards society, and the responsibility of society towards the individual. In our present age, the Muslim individual lives in a state of confrontation with deviant ideas, which unfortunately possess the means that make their impact great on society. The study concluded that the Holy Quran contains indicators and determinants of misguided and deviant thought, Which must be avoided because of the seriousness of its effects. Religion, in its general sense, represents a culture that transcends the limits of human ins
