Linear dimension technique is based on the verity that a specific pattern of interest could reside in a low dimensional sub manifold in original input data and at the same time varying image resolution affect the pattern / face recognition results but reaching at a specific level few features of face become so prominent that it provides best matching with template image on same resolution and in return gives best success rate.. The experiments have been carried out on ORL, Yale, FERET and EME color databases and it is established that for each database there is always an optimal image resolution exits where the recognition performance is always best. This model consists of two parts, first part is preprocessing of the image, which includes conversion of a color image to gray scale image and then sobel edge detector mask is applied to detect the outer curvature of the face. Later on Automatic Cropping Algorithm is applied to carry out automatic face normalization. In Second part, the Gaussian pyramid of varying image resolution is obtained and effects of resolution on recognition are discussed.","PeriodicalId":276741,"journal":{"name":"2005 International Conference on Information and Communication Technologies","volume":"72 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2005-08-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126631157","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Given the diversity of knowledge modalities that encompass any given topic/problem it is reasonable to demand access and use of all available knowledge, irrespective of their representation modality, to derive a knowledge-mediated solution. This calls for selecting all knowledge elements (represented in different modalities) that are relevant to the solution of the problem at hand. Thus here we pursue the specification and implementation of such a knowledge-mediated solution using a triangulation approach leading to Knowledge Morphing. In this paper we present a tacit-explicit knowledge morphing (TEKM) system in the healthcare setting that supports the extraction of tacit knowledge from past cases stored in a case-base and mapping it with corresponding explicit knowledge stored in clinical practice guidelines. Here we present the system design and intended functionality of our knowledge management framework.","PeriodicalId":276741,"journal":{"name":"2005 International Conference on Information and Communication Technologies","volume":"33 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122850379","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The industry is playing a leading role to define future trends of information technology and its dimensions. A strong interaction of academia with industry is desirable to bootstrap the research and development activity. Software components are the dominant input in the area of Information Technology. Government of Pakistan has played an important role in providing the required infrastructure for development. Academic Institutions have made a significant quantitative progress by producing a large number of IT graduates. However standardized curricula and quality of graduates needs to be ensured in order to compete with the international players and make Pakistan a strong hub of Information Technology. By following the right direction, we can become inventors of technology and not remain in the lagging mode as only the user of technology","PeriodicalId":276741,"journal":{"name":"2005 International Conference on Information and Communication Technologies","volume":"4 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132813320","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
