Low power CMOS iImage sensor for face recognition

Imaging system is suitable for different purposes, depending upon their final application. Digital cameras, camcorders, webcams, security cameras or infrared (IR) cameras are well-known imaging systems. For complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) image sensors, its performance is more promising compared to charged coupled device (CCD) due to its low power consumption, low cost, and on chip functionality and compatibility with standard CMOS technology [1]. In face recognition mode, three dimensional cameras replaced two-dimensional images to measure the object size, distance and shape with time-of-flight (TOF) cameras. Depth information can be extracted to be compared with database [2]. Therefore, CMOS image sensor with its architecture on pixel array, signal processors, row and column selector and timing control [3] will be the main key

Morpho-Physiological Studies On The Digestive Tract Of The Mousedeer (Tragulus Javanicus)

Although the mousedeer ( Tragulus javanicus) is considered a ruminant , its stomach comprises of three compartments only namely, rumen , reticulum and abomasum . Few published work on the digestive system of this animal are in isolated areas . As it is becoming more important as a laboratory ruminant model , the present study will provide additional and more comprehensive in formation on the animal , particularly on the morpho -physiology of its digestive tract . This study assists in the comparison of mousedeer with other ruminants and attempts to classify it in the most appropriate category of ruminants. Morphological study and distribution of lingual papillae showed that the mousedeer has a tongue similar to that of a pig which is a non - ruminant.However , it is still considered a ruminant because it has a compound stomach where the omasum is under developed

Evidence-Based Programs & Measures Of Mental Health Literacy among Adolescents: A Narrative Research Review

Evidence-Based Programs & Measures Of Mental Health Literacy among Adolescents: A Narrative Research Review Roxana Naemi, Dept. of Psychology, Sabrina Hawa, & Chloe Walker, Dept. of Psychology Graduate Student, with Dr. Chelsea D. Williams, Dept. of Psychology This current narrative research review aims to provide a review of measures that assess the principles of mental health literacy among adolescents. Mental health literacy can be defined as the degree to which an individual processes and understands mental health information and is able to seek further treatment (Olsson & Kennedy, 2010) and varies based upon age (Farrera et al., 2008), sex differences and relationships with peers (Burns& Rupee 2006), and attitudes towards mental health (Olsson & Kennedy, 2010). Using PsycINFO to find research to date, findings of the review indicated that for evidence-based programs using mental health literacy, adolescents had a better understanding of mental health literacy post-program, whereas when they were first interviewed through surveys and questionnaires. Additionally, the review indicated that more studies assessing psychometrics of existing measures used to assess mental health literacy among adolescents are warranted. Discussion will center on programs and methodological approaches used to examine mental health literacy among adolescents and the need for implementing more programs promoting mental health literacy within schools.https://scholarscompass.vcu.edu/uresposters/1312/thumbnail.jp
