A method is presented for automated segmentation of vessels in two-dimensional color images of the retina. This method can be used in computer analyses of retinal images, e.g., in automated screening ...

The performance of copper indium gallium diselenide (CIGS) thin film solar cell has been numerically simulated with different buffer and absorber layers thickness. The cell structure based on CIGS ...

Photovoltaic (PV) energy has grown at an average annual rate of 60% in the last five years, surpassing one third of the cumulative wind energy installed capacity, and is quickly becoming an important ...

Object 3D reconstruction from a single-view image is an ill-posed problem. Inferring the self-occluded part of an object makes 3D reconstruction a challenging and ambiguous task. In this paper, we ...

In this article, we propose a hybrid computing model, UAV-Edge-Cloud, bringing edge/cloud computing and UAV swarm together to achieve high quality of service (QoS) guarantees. First, we design this ...

This article introduces a novel one-dimensional sine chaotic system (1DSCS) with large parameter interval. The evaluation of 1DSCS indicates that the system has good chaotic characteristics and large ...

This work is concerned with the prescribed performance tracking control for a family of nonlinear nontriangular structure systems under uncertain initial conditions and partial measurable states. By ...

The increasing prevalence of chronic non-communicable diseases makes it a priority to develop tools for enhancing their management. On this matter, Artificial Intelligence algorithms have proven to be ...

A variety of different scripts are used in writing languages throughout the world. In a multiscript, multilingual environment, it is essential to know the script used in writing a document before an ...

This standard specifies interchange and arithmetic formats and methods for binary and decimal floating-point arithmetic in computer programming environments. This standard specifies exception ...

With the continuous expansion of data availability in many large-scale, complex, and networked systems, such as surveillance, security, Internet, and finance, it becomes critical to advance the ...

Intelligent reflecting surface (IRS) is an enabling technology to engineer the radio signal propagation in wireless networks. By smartly tuning the signal reflection via a large number of low-cost ...
