Least Squares Support Vector Machine Based Classification Of Abnormalities In Brain Mr Images, S. Thamarai Selvi, D. Selvathi, R. Ramkumar, Henry Selvaraj

Electrical & Computer Engineering Faculty Research

The manual interpretation of MRI slices based on visual examination by radiologist/physician may lead to missing diagnosis when a large number of MRIs are analyzed. To avoid the human error, an automated intelligent classification system is proposed. This research paper proposes an intelligent classification technique to the problem of classifying four types of brain abnormalities viz. Metastases, Meningiomas, Gliomas, and Astrocytomas. The abnormalities are classified based on Two/Three/ Four class classification using statistical and textural features. In this work, classification techniques based on Least Squares Support Vector Machine (LS-SVM) using textural features computed from the MR images of patient are …


A Microscopic-To-Macroscopic Crowd Dynamic Model, S. Al-Nasur, Pushkin Kachroo Jan 2006

A Microscopic-To-Macroscopic Crowd Dynamic Model, S. Al-Nasur, Pushkin Kachroo

Electrical & Computer Engineering Faculty Research

This paper presents a model for a two-dimensional pedestrian movement flow. The model is derived by extending a one-dimensional vehicle traffic flow model that uses two coupled partial differential equations (PDEs) to govern vehicular motion. This model modifies the vehicular traffic model so that bidirectional flow is possible, and also the pedestrian movement can be controlled to model different behaviors. The model satisfies the conservation principle and is classified as a hyperbolic PDE system. Analysis of the model is drawn based on the theoretical aspects as well as the numerical simulation results achieved using the finite volume method. The original …


Feedback Control Design And Stability Analysis Of One Dimensional Evacuation System, S. Wadoo, Pushkin Kachroo Jan 2006

Feedback Control Design And Stability Analysis Of One Dimensional Evacuation System, S. Wadoo, Pushkin Kachroo

Electrical & Computer Engineering Faculty Research

This paper presents design of nonlinear feedback controllers for two different models representing evacuation dynamics in one dimension. The models presented here are based on the laws of conservation of mass and momentum. The first model is the classical one equation model for a traffic flow based on conservation of mass with a prescribed relationship between density and velocity. The other model is a two equation model in which the velocity is independent of the density. This model is based on conservation of mass and momentum. The equations of motion in both cases are described by nonlinear partial differential equations. …


Efficient Scheduling For Sdmg Cioq Switches, Mei Yang, S. Q. Zheng Jan 2006

Efficient Scheduling For Sdmg Cioq Switches, Mei Yang, S. Q. Zheng

Electrical & Computer Engineering Faculty Research

Combined input and output queuing (CIOQ) switches are being considered as high-performance switch architectures due to their ability to achieve 100% throughput and perfectly emulate output queuing (OQ) switch performance with a small speedup factor S. To realize a speedup factor S, a conventional CIOQ switch requires the switching fabric and memories to operate S times faster than the line rate. In this paper, we propose to use a CIOQ switch with space-division multiplexing expansion and grouped input/output ports (SDMG CIOQ switch for short) to realize speedup while only requiring the switching fabric and memories to operate at the line …
