Metal coated subwavelength laser resonators with low threshold gain (2008)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

We demonstrate that a low refractive index layer in metal coated laser resonators can significantly reduce the threshold gain. A subwavelength resonator with a sufficiently low threshold gain to lase at room temperature is presented.

We introduce a low refractive index layer between the metal and the gain medium in metal-coated laser resonators and demonstrate that it can significantly reduce the dissipation losses. Analysis of a gain medium waveguide shows that for a given waveg... Read More about Low threshold gain metal coated laser nanoresonators.

Optimizing classification techniques using genetic programming approach (2008)
Presentation / Conference
Saraee, M., & Sadjady, R. (2008, December). Optimizing classification techniques using genetic programming approach. Presented at 12th IEEE International Multitopic Conference, Conquering the Horizons of Future Technology (IEEE INMIC 2008), Karachi, Pakistan

Genetic Programming (GP) is a branch of Genetic
Algorithms (GA) that searches for the best operation or
computer program in search space of operations. At the same
time classification is a data mining technique used to build model of data classes... Read More about Optimizing classification techniques using genetic programming approach.

Applying data mining in medical data with focus on mortality related to accident in children (2008)
Presentation / Conference
Saraee, M., Ehghaghi, Z., Meamarzadeh, H., & Zibanezhad, B. (2008, December). Applying data mining in medical data with focus on mortality related to accident in children. Presented at IEEE International Multitopic Conference, Karachi, Pakistan

Trauma is the main leading cause of death in children; we need a tool to prevent and predict the outcome in these patients. Data mining is the science of extracting the useful information from a large amount of data sets or databases that leads to st...

Fuzzy block matching motion estimation for video compression (2008)
Presentation / Conference
Soroushmehr, S., Samavi, S., & Saraee, M. (2008, December). Fuzzy block matching motion estimation for video compression. Presented at 2008 IEEE 9th Malay International Conference on Communications, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia,

Motion estimation demands intense computations. To overcome this obstacle, different techniques have been devised. In this paper an efficient spatio-temporal fuzzy search algorithm is proposed to shorten the search time without the loss of accuracy....

Estimating the diet of urban birds: the problems of anthropogenic food and food digestibility (2008)
Journal Article
Ottoni, I., de Oliveria, F., & Young, R. (2009). Estimating the diet of urban birds: the problems of anthropogenic food and food digestibility. Applied Animal Behaviour Science, 117(1-2), 42-46. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.applanim.2008.11.002

A variety of methods exist for assessing the diets of wild birds, each of which has its strengths and weaknesses. The objective of this study was to compare diet data collected in parallel by behavioural observations and faecal analysis from an urban...
