The Persuasive Methods of ISIS in Recruiting Individuals (Scientific Approach)
...Show More Authors

The rapid success and the field dilation of Daish organization in both Iraq and Syria make academic institutes and research centers to pay attention to its propaganda means to gain its public opinion, and to further investigation about new methods employed by this organization to disseminate its messages to the public, particularly young people in large areas of the world. This organization uses traditional propaganda techniques on psychological war and its levels, social network sites and platforms that are distributed online. This study seeks to expose more persuasive methods used by the organization to gain multiple classes of society and to disseminate its extremist ideological thoughts. It also studies the psychological operation and mental deception to achieve its goals and strengthens its presence on the occupied areas. This research also focuses on other Daish’s propaganda efforts comparable with the deceptive nature of such terrorist organizations, generally like propaganda of clash between the groups or different social classes, agitation of enthusiasm passion, the use of new electronic technologies of illustration to increase the psychological impact depending on the expertise and funds are obtained in different ways. The study found a number of conclusions, including:
The study concludes with the following results:
1- Daish organization realizes the importance and power of media to gain public opinion, supporters and sympathizers since the beginning of its appearance representative by Abu Musab al-Zarqawi
2- Daish has additional power factors after its dilation and occupied cities in Iraq and Syria as a result of the growth of its financial resources and it polarizes new technical experts.
3-The propaganda system of Daish uses various recruit techniques and psychological operations to make youth, women and children be involved to expand its supporters by which it implement special armed operations
4- Daish has used the preachers, imams of mosques, social networking sites, info graphics, and electronic forums as a means to implicate recruits and teach them ways of belonging to this organization as well as how to make explosives via the internet.
5- It owns several propaganda arms forming the skeleton of its electronic arms including productive and audio-visual centers as well as publications like Dabiq magazine, Alshamilha magazine, and Khansa magazine.
6- Daish organization depends not only on mass communication through its new and traditional means, but also uses direct means of persuasions by training preachers and some individual practices to raise enthusiasm and passion by using the normal cassette or compact disk ( CD).
7- It uses the deceptive style and bright words to create a historical depth of its formation and show an alleged link of caliphate with the Islamic caliphate in the era of the Prophet Muhammad and his Caliphs.
8- Daish relies on persuasive techniques of psychology in order to lure young people and women, to recruit its supporters.
9- Daish shows the children, who call them cubs caliphs, in its propaganda through a series of short films. These cubs› caliphs are involved in military, field, and psychological training programs.

The Characterisation of the Craniofacial Morphology of Infants Born With Zika Virus; Innovative Approach for Public Health Surveillance and Broad Clinical Applications
...Show More Authors

Background: This study was carried out in response to the Zika virus epidemic, which constituted a public health emergency, and to the 2019 WHO calling for strengthened surveillance for the early detection of related microcephaly. The main aim of the study was to phenotype the craniofacial morphology of microcephaly using a novel approach and new measurements, and relate the characteristics to brain abnormalities in Zika-infected infants in Brazil to improve clinical surveillance.

Methods: 3D images of the face and the cranial vault of 44 Zika-infected infants and matched healthy controls were captured using a 3D stereophotogrammetry system. The CT scans of the brain of t

A comparison between the hierarchical clustering methods for postgraduate students in Iraqi universities for the year 2019-2020 using the cophenetic and delta correlation coefficients
...Show More Authors

The educational sector is one of the important sectors in the world, and it is considered one of the means of community development. In addition, it is one of the means of making the country’s renaissance and devel-opment because it represents the factory of thinking minds that make change. There is no doubt that this sector is the same as any other sector. The deficit in the studied scientific planning has been prolonged, which led to its deterioration, and the problems of education remain diverse and inherited from previous time periods, where the hierarchical cluster analysis was used on postgraduate students in universities in Iraq, except for Kurdistan region, and the number of universities that were included in the study was

The Calculation and Analysis of the Total Electron Content Over Different Latitudes and Seasons Using the Numerical Trapezoidal and Simpson Methods
...Show More Authors

It has been shown in ionospheric research that calculation of the total electron content (TEC) is an important factor in global navigation system. In this study, TEC calculation was performed over Baghdad city, Iraq, using a combination of two numerical methods called composite Simpson and composite Trapezoidal methods. TEC was calculated using the line integral of the electron density derived from the International reference ionosphere IRI2012 and NeQuick2 models from 70 to 2000 km above the earth surface. The hour of the day and the day number of the year, R12, were chosen as inputs for the calculation techniques to take into account latitudinal, diurnal and seasonal variation of TEC. The results of latitudinal variation of TE

User Authentication Approach using a Combination of Unigraph and Digraph Keystroke Features
...Show More Authors

In Computer-based applications, there is a need for simple, low-cost devices for user authentication. Biometric authentication methods namely keystroke dynamics are being increasingly used to strengthen the commonly knowledge based method (example a password) effectively and cheaply for many types of applications. Due to the semi-independent nature of the typing behavior it is difficult to masquerade, making it useful as a biometric. In this paper, C4.5 approach is used to classify user as authenticated user or impostor by combining unigraph features (namely Dwell time (DT) and flight time (FT)) and digraph features (namely Up-Up Time (UUT) and Down-Down Time (DDT)). The results show that DT enhances the performance of digraph features by i

Optimizing performance of water-cooled photovoltaic-thermal modules: A 3D numerical approach
...Show More Authors

To evaluate and improve the efficiency of photovoltaic solar modules connected with linear pipes for water supply, a three-dimensional numerical simulation is created and simulated via commercial software (Ansys-Fluent). The optimization utilizes the principles of the 1st and 2nd laws of thermodynamics by employing the Response Surface Method (RSM). Various design parameters, including the coolant inlet velocity, tube diameter, panel dimensions, and solar radiation intensity, are systematically varied to investigate their impacts on energetic and exergitic efficiencies and destroyed exergy. The relationship between the design parameters and the system responses is validated through the development of a predictive model. Both single and mult

Traffic Classification of IoT Devices by Utilizing Spike Neural Network Learning Approach
...Show More Authors

Whenever, the Internet of Things (IoT) applications and devices increased, the capability of the its access frequently stressed. That can lead a significant bottleneck problem for network performance in different layers of an end point to end point (P2P) communication route. So, an appropriate characteristic (i.e., classification) of the time changing traffic prediction has been used to solve this issue. Nevertheless, stills remain at great an open defy. Due to of the most of the presenting solutions depend on machine learning (ML) methods, that though give high calculation cost, where they are not taking into account the fine-accurately flow classification of the IoT devices is needed. Therefore, this paper presents a new model bas
