Biometric applications are very sensitive to the process because of its complexity in presenting unstructured input to the processing. The existing applications of image processing are based on the implementation of different programing segments such as image acquisition, segmentation, extraction, and final output. The proposed model is designed with 2 convolution layers and 3 dense layers. We examined the module with 5 datasets including 3 benchmark datasets, namely CASIA, UBIRIS, MMU, random dataset, and the live video. We calculated the FPR, FNR, Precision, Recall, and accuracy of each dataset. The calculated accuracy of CASIA using the proposed system is 82.8%, for UBIRIS is 86%, MMU is 84%, and the random dataset is 84%. On live video with low resolution, calculated accuracy is 72.4%. The proposed system achieved better accuracy compared to existing state-of-the-art systems.
The effect of quaternary additions of 0.5% Y and 0.5 and 1.0% Th to a base alloy of Ni-10Cr-5Al on the oxidation behavior and mechanism was studied during oxidation in air over the range of 1000–1200°C. The presence of yttrium decreased the oxidation kinetics slightly, whereas the addition of thorium caused a slight increase. Oxide scale adherence was markedly improved by the addition of the quaternary elements. Although a number of oxides formed on yttrium-containing alloys, quantitative x-ray diffraction clearly showed that the rate-controlling step was the diffusion of oxygen through short-circuit paths in a thin layer of alumina that formed parabolically with time. Mixed oxides containing both aluminum and yttrium formed by the reaction of Y2O3 to form YAlOP3 initially, and Y3Al5O12 (YAG) after longer times. Although the scale adherence of the yttrium-containing alloy was considerably better than the base alloys, spalling did occur that was attributed to the formation of the voluminous YAG particles that grew in a mushroom-like manner, lifting the protective scale off the substrate locally. The YAG particles formed primarily at grain boundaries in the substrate in which the yttrium originally existed as YNi9. This intermetallic compound reacted to form Y2O3, liberating metallic nickel that subsequently reacted to form NiO or NiAl2O4 spinel or both. The Y2O3 reacted with aluminum to ultimately form the YAG mushrooms. Thorium did not form any mixed oxides; the only oxide involving thorium was ThO2, which existed as small particles at the oxide-metal interface. A highly beneficial effect of the thoria particles in reducing film spalling was observed. Scale spalling in the base alloy was attributed to void formation at the oxide-metal interface, the voids forming by condensation of excess vacancies from the Kirkendall effect associated with fast back-diffusion, of nickel into the substrate as aluminum was preferentially oxidized and diffused slowly outward. The mechanism of improved scale adherence in the quaternary alloys was the elimination of voids by annihilation of the Kirkendall vacancies at vacancy sinks introduced by the noncoherent interfaces between yttrium and thorium-containing intermetallics or oxides or both.This work is based on a portion of the dissertation of Arun Kumar in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Engineering, University of California, Los Angeles.Supported by NASA-Ames under grant No. NGR 05-007-352. 相似文献
The microalloying of tantalum with silicon has been effectively used on a commercial scale. However, data on effects of microalloying on processibility, microstructure and mechanical properties are not readily available. To develop some data, tantalum powder with various levels of silicon (0–50 ppm) was processed under identical conditions. Sheet samples were then annealed at different temperatures and evaluated via microstructural, chemical and mechanical tests. The recrystallization temperature was found to increase with silicon content, most probably as a result of the presence of an intermetallic (Ta3Si) phase. The mechanical properties of unrecrystallized tantalum are, as expected, significantly different from those of recrystallized tantalum. 相似文献
This paper presents the design, fabrication and reliability testing of a double spiral platinum-based MEMS hotplate for gas sensing applications. The structure of MEMS hotplate consists of a 0.7 µm-thick thermally grown SiO2 membrane of size 120 µm × 120 µm over which a double spiral platinum resistor is laid out. The hotplate membrane is supported by its four arms connected to the Si-substrate. The design and simulation of the hotplate structure was carried out using MEMS-CAD Tool COVENTORWARE. Based on the design, a double spiral platinum resistor of 103 Ω is fabricated on SiO2 membrane using lift-off technique. The platinum deposition is carried out using DC sputtering technique. Bulk micromachining of Si is done from front side of the structure to create the suspended SiO2 membrane. The temperature coefficient of resistance (TCR) of platinum is measured and found to be 2.19 × 10?3/ °C. The TCR value is used for temperature estimation of the hotplate. The test results show that the microhotplate consumes only 20 mW power when heated up to 500 °C. For reliability testing of fabricated structure, the hotplate is continuously operated at 300 °C for 1.8 h. Also, it can sustain at least 61 cycles pulse-mode operation at 530 °C with ultra-low resistance and temperature drifts. The structure can sustain a maximum temperature and current of 611 °C and 11.55 mA respectively without any damage. 相似文献
This paper deals with the fuzzy set-valued functions of real variables on time scale whose values are normal, convex, upper semicontinuous and compactly supported fuzzy sets in \(\mathbb {R}^{n}\). We introduce and study the fundamental properties of new class of derivative called generalized delta derivative (\(\Delta _{g}\)-derivative) and generalized delta integral (\(\Delta _{g}\)-integral) for such fuzzy functions. 相似文献
Liouville numbers were the first class of real numbers which were proven to be transcendental. It is easy to construct non-normal Liouville numbers. Kano (1993) and Bugeaud (2002) have proved, using analytic techniques, that there are normal Liouville numbers. Here, for a given base k ≥ 2, we give a new construction of a Liouville number which is normal to the base k. This construction is combinatorial, and is based on de Bruijn sequences. 相似文献
