Motion Vector Estimation Search using Hexagon-Diamond Pattern for Video Sequences, Grid Point and Block-Based

Grid and block-based motion vector estimation techniques are proposed for motion tracking in video sequences. The grid technique is referred to the hexagon-diamond pattern. While, block-based technique is referred to 16 × 16 pixels of blocks in a single frame in video sequences. The hexagon and diamond pattern is applied onto the 16 × 16 pixels blocks in a single frame for motion tracking purposes in video sequences. The hexagon grid pattern will conduct a search to capture the motion in a particular block of the hexagon region before the diamond grid pattern takes place for the fine search. The diamond grid pattern provides accuracy to obtain the best grid vector coordinate for motion tracking purposes. The hexagon-diamond grid vector coordinate can be used to determine whether the object is moving toward the horizontal or vertical plane. The information determined at grid vector coordinate can be used as a reference when referring to the previous frame in video sequence processing. The grid vector coordinate will help to determine the area of interest to be examined based on the coordinate obtained. Besides the grid vector estimation, the Point Signal Noise-to-Ratio (PSNR) is also applied to measure the quality of the video

Adverse effects derived from consumption of anabolic steroids in sport

Los esteroides anabólicos androgénicos son análogos sintéticos químicamente modificados de la testosterona. Desde su descubrimiento, a principios del siglo XX, su uso se ha extendido enormemente en el deporte profesional, y de forma más preocupante, en los adolescentes y adultos jóvenes. Ciertos valores culturales actuales marcan una línea temática que puede desembocar en el consumo de dichas sustancias. El consumo de esteroides anabólicos representa un problema de salud pública. Los efectos secundarios se han documentado extensamente, afectando a multitud de aparatos y sistemas. Dentro de los más relevantes, podemos mencionar los efectos adversos a nivel cardiovascular, psicológico, hepático, reproductivo, neuro-cognitivo, genético y musculo-esquelético. A pesar de los hallazgos evidenciados, muchos de ellos irreversibles, son necesarios nuevos estudios que otorguen mayor conocimiento en la materia

Peran Pengurus Panti Asuhan dalam Menunjang Keberlanjutan Pendidikan Anak di Panti Asuhan Nurul Hamid

The aims of this research is to investigate the role of caretakers in supporting the continuance of the children's education, the obstacles face by the caretakers in carrying out the role, and caretakers attempt in overcoming the obstacles. In this study the method used is the descriptive. With the techniques of data collection used are direct observation techniques, direct communication techniques and documentary studies techniques, while the tools of data collection are observation, interview and documentation. The analysis conducted using qualitative descriptive with 7 participants consist of 2 orphanage caretakers, 2 junior high student's orphans, 2 senior high student's orphans and 1 university student orphan. The roles of the orphanage caretakers in supporting the continuance of the children's education is as the motivator, facilitator, mentor, and a foster parent as a replacement of the families or parents of the children. The obstacles faced by the caretakers in carrying out its' role is derived from the children's own self and funding. The efforts of the caretaker used to resolve existing obstacles is by approaching the child, finding donors to help the orphanage funding and facilitate all the needs of the children in the orphanage

Pengaruh Status Sosial Ekonomi Orang Tua sebagai Buruh Sawit terhadap Pendidikan Formal Anak

The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of socio-economic status of parents who work as oil palm laborers towardsthe children's formal education. The method used in this research was descriptive statistical methods with correlation study. The results of this study showed that t-count16.93 and t-table 2,021, so t-count was greater than t-table or 16.93>2,021. Hence, Hawas accepted and Ho was rejected. It means that there was a significant difference between Socio-economic Status of Parents Who Work as Oil Palm laborersagainstthe children's Formal Education. After testing the hypothesis, obtained that the large of coefficientdetermination (Adjusted R Square) was 88%, which means that the socio-economic status of parents who work as oil palm laborers was 88% (very high) to the children's formal education. While the rest 12% were influenced by other variables that theresearchers did not investigate further

The Impact of United Kingdom and Malaysia's Inherent Health Systems on Their COVID‐19 Responses: A Comparison of Containment Strategies

In March 2020, the outbreak of COVID‐19 was officially declared a global pandemic by the World Health Organization. Given the novelty of the virus, and hence, lack of official guidance on effective containment strategies, individual countries opted for different containment approaches ranging from herd immunity to strict lockdown. The opposing strategies followed by the United Kingdom and its former colony, Malaysia, stand exemplary for this. Real‐time polymerase chain reaction was implemented for testing in both counties. Malaysia acted with strict quarantining rules and infection surveillance. The United Kingdom followed an initially lenient, herd‐immunity approach with strict lockdown only enforced weeks later. Although based on the same health‐care structure historically, Malaysia developed a more unified health system compared with the United Kingdom. We suggest that this more centralized structure could be one possible explanation for why Malaysia was able to react in a more timely and efficient manner, despite its closer geographic proximity to China. We further explore how the differences in testing and quarantining strategy, as well as political situation and societal compliance could account for the discrepancy in the United Kingdom's versus Malaysia's relative success of COVID‐19 containment
