Computer vision is a significant field of application of mathematical models developed to monitor 3D anatomical locations of the human body, particularly in robotics, surveillance, and medicine. In this paper, we present a new model that applies the Kalman filter (KF) to track 3D anatomical features in real time with increased precision. The approa...

The application of sand as shell materials in zoned earth dams is common due to its availability and economic factors. Nevertheless, it is necessary to analyze the performance of such materials under the simultaneous effect of seepage and earthquake loads, especially when the core of the structure is formed from low permeable materials. The present...

Storage systems must be verifiably secure, and access control must be fine grained and transparent, and must provide audit trails for modern cyber-physical and cloud ecosystems. While blockchain ensures immutability and traceability of data, it does not have the ability to make real-time authorization  decisions, identify abnormal behavior, or...

The classification of ASD from neuroimaging and behavioral information has not been easy owing to factors such as high dimensionality, non-linearity, and overfitting, among others. In this research, propose an innovative framework based on QBMs for feature selection and efficient representation for ASD classification. QBMs have been used to leverag...

The study seeks to identify the joint effect of financial, operating, and governance features on the cash levels of retail firms listed in Vietnam. Instead of viewing the cash policy as a one-time decision that determines the cash balance, we model the cash level as a dynamic process where the current level is a function of past periods' cash level...
