Multiple Proposals for Continuous Arabic Sign Language Recognition
(Springer, 2019)
The deaf community relies on sign language as the primary means of communication. For the millions of people around the world who suffer from hearing loss, interaction with hearing people is quite difficult. The main ...
User-independent recognition of Arabic sign language for facilitating communication with the deaf community
(Elsevier, 2011)
This paper presents a solution for user-independent recognition of isolated Arabic Sign language gestures. The video based gestures are preprocessed to segment out the hands of the signer based on color segmentation of the ...
Preliminary Results of Combining Low Frequency Low Intensity Ultrasound and Liposomal Drug Delivery to Treat Tumors in Rats
(American Scientific Publishers, 2011)
Ultrasound is a convenient trigger for site-specific drug delivery in cancer therapy. Nanosized liposomes formulated from soy phosphatidyl choline, cholesterol, 1,2-distearoyl-sn-glycero- 3-phosphoethanolamine-N-[carboxy ...
Incorporating Computer-Aided Software in the Undergraduate Chemical Engineering Core Courses
(Chemical Engineering Education, 2014)
Introductions of computer-aided software and simulators are implemented during the sophomore-year of the chemical engineering (ChE) curriculum at the American University of Sharjah (AUS). Our faculty concurs that software ...
Investigating the acoustic release of doxorubicin from targeted micelles
(Elsevier, 2013)
The main problem associated with the administration of anti-cancer medication is that the drug is delivered throughout the body causing undesirable side effects. Therefore, it is important to synthesize drug carriers capable ...
Review on Triggered Liposomal Drug Delivery with a Focus on Ultrasound
(Bentham Science Publishers, 2015)
Chemotherapy is widely used for cancer treatment; however, it causes unwanted side effects in patients. To avoid these adverse effects, nanocarriers have been developed, which can be loaded with the chemotherapeutic agents, ...
Immunoliposomes: Synthesis, Structure, and Their Potential as Drug Delivery Carriers
(Bentham Science, 2020)
Immunoliposomes have emerged as attractive drug targeting vehicles for cancer treatment. This review presents the recent advances in the design of immunoliposomes encapsulating a variety of chemotherapeutic agents. We ...
Selective removal of dual dyes from aqueous solutions using Metal Organic Framework (MIL-53(Al))
(Elsevier, 2020)
The adsorption process of the cationic dye Malachite Green (MG) and the anionic dye Methyl Orange (MO) onto a MOF, namely, MIL-53(Al) was studied under several experimental parameters. Batch experiments were performed to ...
Comparing microbubble cavitation at 500 kHz and 70 kHz related to micellar drug delivery using ultrasound
(Elsevier, 2013)
We have previously reported that ultrasonic drug release at 70 kHz was found to correlate with the presence of subharmonic emissions. No evidence of drug release or of the subharmonic emissions were detected in experiments ...
Motion-Based Gait Recognition for Recognizing People in Traditional Gulf Clothing
(IEEE, 2019)
Gait recognition is gaining popularity as it can recognize people in a non-intrusive and a non-contact manner. However, gait recognition is known for its susceptibility to clothing conditions. In this paper, we propose a ...
