The most important aspects of image processing are image enhancement. The visual form of an image can be enhanced by using image enhancement techniques for better human interpretation. In this research paper we discuss an   outline and analysis of commonly used image enhancement techniques using finger vein image or personal authentication. Also, experiments are carried out to compare performance of various types of filters for removal of noise from the noisy images through evaluation performance parameter such as mean square error (MSE), peak signal to noise ratio (PSNR) values and structural similarity (SSIM). It was found that application of max filter technique ensures an improved quality of the finger vein image. The mean filter is most advanced in de-noising the images. Mean filter is most efficient in eliminating the salt and pepper noise. From the experiments performed on finger vein image using SDUMLA-HMT database, it is proven that Weiner filters are outstanding for elimination of Gaussian Speckle and Poisson noises and thus, Weiner filter is found to be most appropriate and well-suited for eliminating nearly all types of noise.

Achieving e-commerce success is influenced by a variety of interrelated activities. Identifying, analyzing and prioritizing these activities enable decision-makers firstly to evaluate the current success state of Electronic Commerce (EC) businesses more accurately and then to develop an efficient improvement plan to allocate limited resources to achieve a higher level of success. In this research, a Fuzzy Cognitive Maps- analytical hierarchy process (FCM-AHP) approach is used to address this issue by (1) determining interrelationships between influential activities, (2) determining how much these activities influence each other and the overall success, and (3) prioritizing activities to develop a sound improvement plan. In this approach, the FCM technique is used to indicate all possible causal interrelationships between activities and consider all feedback loops between them. Then, the AHP technique is used to determine the contribution weights of activities to the overall success. The obtained management matrices that make it possible to categorize influential activities and the results of improvement scenarios help the decision-makers to develop the most efficient improvement plan and gain the maximum benefit from the allocation of limited resources. An empirical study is implemented to serve as an example to indicate how the approach works.

This paper presents an approach that uses both genetic algorithm (GA) and fuzzy inference system (FIS), for feature selection for descriptor in a quantitative structure activity relationships (QSAR) classification and prediction problem. Unlike the traditional techniques that employed GA, the FIS is used to evaluate an individual population in the GA process. So, the fitness function is introduced and defined by the error rate of the GA and FIS combination. The proposed approach has been implemented and tested using a data set with experimental value anti-human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) molecules. The statistical parameters q2 (leave many out) is equal 0.59 and r (coefficient of correlation) is equal 0.98. These results reveal the capacity for achieving subset of descriptors, with high predictive capacity as well as the effectiveness and robustness of the proposed approach.

Due to the rapid changes and developments caused by technology in the digital age and the growing importance of achieving sustainability for the survival of businesses, the need to create the capabilities needed to innovate in the business model of organizations has become inevitable. This research is trying to provide a model for business model innovation with the aim of sustainability by considering the external factor of digitalization (digital transformation) and the internal factor of dynamic capabilities. The method of this research is mixed so that in the first stage the qualitative method of Meta-Synthesis is used and in the second stage the quantitative method of Interpretive Structural Modeling (ISM) is used. In this research, based on the systematic review of previous researches in scientific databases, 402 related articles were identified and then 46 final articles were selected during the screening process. Based on the thematic analysis, a total of 4 main categories and 14 factors were extracted. In the second stage of the research, an interpretive structural model (ISM) is developed to show the inter‐relationship of different factors and their levels of importance in the food industry.   The 8-level hierarchy model of factors influencing the sustainable business model innovation in the digital age with a dynamic capabilities approach was proposed. Results show that a new component called network value has been added to the traditional business model components. Furthermore, the MICMAC approach has been used to categorise factors according to their driving power and dependence. finally, digital technologies and Sensing were found to be the factors with the highest independence and the highest driving power, and “Economic Sustainability” was identified as the factor with the highest dependence and the least driving power

In attempts to examine the mapped spaces of a literary narrative, various quantitative approaches have been deployed to extract data from texts to graphs, maps, and trees. Though the existing methods offer invaluable insights, they undertake a rather different project than that of literary scholars who seek to examine privileged or unprivileged representations of certain spaces. This study aims to propose a computerized method to examine how matters of space and spatiality are addressed in literary writings. As the primary source of data, the study will focus on Viet Thanh Nguyen’s The Sympathizer (2015), which explores the lives of Vietnamese diaspora in two geographical locations, Vietnam, and America. To examine the portrayed spatial relations, that is which country is privileged over the other, and to find out the underlying opinion about the two places, this study performs topic modelling with Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) and Latent Semantic Analysis (LSA) by using TextBlob. In addition, Python is used as the analytical tool for this project as it supports two LDA algorithms: Gensim and Mallet. To overcome the limitation that the performance of the model relies on the available libraries in Python, the study employs machine learning approach. Even though the results indicated that both geographical spaces are portrayed slightly positively, America achieves a higher polarity score than Vietnam and hence seems to be the favored space in the novel. This study can assist literary scholars in analyzing spatial relations more accurately in large volumes of works.
