Extracting Descriptive Frames from Informational Videos

     Informational videos are becoming increasingly important among all video types. The users spend so much time browsing the informative videos, even if they are not interested in all their topics. Thence, a new method for extracting descriptive frames is presented in this paper that allows users to navigate directly to the topics of their interest in the video. The proposed method consists of three main phases: video preprocessing, video segmentation, and the video separation phase. Firstly, frames are extracted from the videos, resized, and converted to grayscale. Then, the frames are divided into blocks, and the kurtosis moment is calculated for each block. The videos are segmented based on an examination of the differences between the features of the kurtosis moment. Lastly, the informative frames are grouped into a separate video after they are distinguished from the uninformative ones using the clustering technique. The results demonstrated the functional effectiveness of the proposed method. According to the accuracy and F1-Score measures, it has a performance of up to 100%. Moreover, the video is significantly summarized by reducing the duration to less than 1% of its original time.

Extractive Multi-Document Text Summarization Using Multi-Objective Evolutionary Algorithm Based Model

Automatic document summarization technology is evolving and may offer a solution to the problem of information overload. Multi-document summarization is an optimization problem demanding optimizing more than one objective function concurrently. The proposed work considers a balance of two significant objectives: content coverage and diversity while generating a summary from a collection of text documents. Despite the large efforts introduced from several researchers for designing and evaluating performance of many text summarization techniques, their formulations lack the introduction of any model that can give an explicit representation of – coverage and diversity – the two contradictory semantics of any summary. The design of gener

Building a Statistical Model to Detect Foreground Objects and using it in Video Steganography

Video steganography has become a popular option for protecting secret data from hacking attempts and common attacks on the internet. However, when the whole video frame(s) are used to embed secret data, this may lead to visual distortion. This work is an attempt to hide sensitive secret image inside the moving objects in a video based on separating the object from the background of the frame, selecting and arranging them according to object's size for embedding secret image. The XOR technique is used with reverse bits between the secret image bits and the detected moving object bits for embedding. The proposed method provides more security and imperceptibility as the moving objects are used for embedding, so it is difficult to notice the

Serviceability Performance of Externally Prestressed Steel-Concrete Composite Girders

The behavior of externally prestressed composite beams under short term loading has been studied. A computer program developed originally by Oukaili to evaluate curvature is modified to evaluate the deflection of prestressed composite beam under flexural load. The analysis model based on the deformation compatibility of entire structure that allows to determine the full history of strain and stress distribution along cross section depth, deflection and stress increment in the external tendons .
The evaluation of curvatures for the composite beam involves iterations for computing the strains vectors at each node at any loading stage. The stress increment determined using equations depended on the member deflection at points of connecti

On the Growth of Solutions of Second Order Linear Complex Differential Equations whose Coefficients Satisfy Certain Conditions

In this paper, we study the growth of solutions of the second order linear complex differential equations  insuring that any nontrivial solutions are of infinite order. It is assumed that the coefficients satisfy the extremal condition for Yang’s inequality and the extremal condition for Denjoy’s conjecture. The other condition is that one of the coefficients itself is a solution of the differential equation .

Oscillations of Third Order Half Linear Neutral Differential Equations

In this paper the oscillation criterion was investigated for all solutions of the third-order half linear neutral differential equations. Some necessary and sufficient conditions are established for every solution of (a(t)[(x(t)±p(t)x(?(t) ) )^'' ]^? )^'+q(t) x^? (?(t) )=0, t?t_0, to be oscillatory. Examples are given to illustrate our main results.

Classification and Measurement of Land Cover of Wildfires in Australia Using Remote Sensing

     Remote sensing techniques used in many studies for classfying and measuring of wildfires. Satellite Landsat8(OLI) imagery is used in the presented work. The satellite is considered as a near-polar orbit, with a high multispectral resolution for covering Wollemi National Park in Australia. The work aims to study and measure wildfire natural resources prior to and throughout fire breakout which occurred in Wollemi National Park in Australia for a year (October, 2019), as well as analyzing the harm resulting from such wildfires and their effects on earth and environment through recognizing satellite images for studied region prior to and throughout wildfires. A discussion of methods for computing the affecred area i

On Estimation of P(Y_1<X<Y_2 ) in Cased Inverse Kumaraswamy Distribution

This paper deals with the estimation of the stress strength reliability for a component which has a strength that is independent on opposite lower and upper bound stresses, when the stresses and strength follow Inverse Kumaraswamy Distribution. D estimation approaches were applied, namely the maximum likelihood, moment, and shrinkage methods. Monte Carlo simulation experiments were performed to compare the estimation methods based on the mean squared error criteria.

Some Methods to Estimate the Parameters of Generalized Exponential Rayleigh Model by Simulation

This paper shews how to estimate the parameter of generalized exponential Rayleigh (GER) distribution by three estimation methods. The first one is maximum likelihood estimator method the second one is moment employing estimation method (MEM), the third one is rank set sampling estimator method (RSSEM)The simulation technique is used for all these estimation methods to find the parameters for generalized exponential Rayleigh distribution. Finally using the mean squares error criterion to compare between these estimation methods to find which of these methods are best to the others

Oscillation and Asymptotic Behavior of a Three-Dimensional Half-Linear System of Third-Order of Neutral Type

     In this paper, the oscillatory properties and asymptotic behaviour of a third-order three-dimensional neutral system are discussed.  Some sufficient conditions are obtained to ensure that all bounded positive solutions of the system are oscillatory or non-oscillatory.  On the other hand, the non-oscillatory solutions either converge or diverge when  goes to infinity. A special technique is adopted to include all possible cases. The obtained results include illustrative examples.
