ASSESSING THE EFFICACY OF BIO-COAGULANTS IN WATER TREATMENT.
Abstract: The study was designed to investigate the efficacy of Bio-Coagulants in water treatment settling tanks using alum (the commercially available coagulant) as a control for comparison. One of the most important steps in the treatment of water is coagulation, which is utilized to react with organic materials in raw water and destabilize suspended particles. Coagulants, like alum, are frequently used because they lessen the repulsive force between particulate matter, promoting …

Detection of Stego from Motion Vector Patterns Using Steganalysis
Abstract: The ultimate goal of this paper is to detect a stego (encrypted message) in the compressed video using various steganalysis techniques. Although there are many steganalysis methods, in this paper we concern more about the detection accuracy so that no stego will be escaped. To capture all the deviations in the video we use the filters of higher orders. The temporal dependency of the motion vector planes is also considered …

Enhancement K-Mean Algorithm (EKM) for Image Processing in MATLAB
Abstract: In this paper, a new segmentation scheme for the white blood cells from microscopic images is proposed. This is based on the K-means clustering technique. The RGB test images are converted to the L*a*b color space, and then the two color machinery (a and b) are used as features to the K-means clustering algorithm. The success of image analysis depends on segmentation reliability. The accurate partition of the image into …

Face Recognition and Identification Using Computer Vision
Abstract: ABSTRACT In practice, identification of criminal in India is done through thumbprint identification. However, this type of identification has many constraints. Our face recognition poses to be able to detect face and recognize face automatically. Nowadays, face recognition systems use biometric for many security applications. This technique uses an image-based approach toward artificial intelligence by removing redundant data from face images through image compression using computer vision that compares a …
