Roy Assaf Trio, jazz (Estados Unidos)
No full textPara Roy Assaf Trio, el repertorio a interpretar en cada concierto es solo una guía, un bosquejo sobre el que empiezan a crear improvisaciones libres, que evolucionan en canciones en el momento en el que se enfrentan a su audiencia. Nunca planean completamente sus presentaciones; éstas siempre son diferentes y novedosas. Tampoco se imponen limitaciones, pueden navegar cerca o lejos de la forma y en ocasiones utilizar solo parte de una composición, lo que posibilita la transformación de cada pieza en un estilo diferente. Los tres músicos presentan su nuevo ‘estilo’ colectivamente. A pesar de llamarse ‘Roy Assaf Trio’, Roy, Raviv y Ronen lideran el grupo conjuntamente e introducen una perspectiva que nunca antes se había visto en un trío de piano. Todo esto y más se crea de manera orgánica en cada concierto en vivo. Mediante una muestra de su proceso, le explican su concepto al público e invitan a los oyentes a hacer un viaje que nunca olvidarán

The Waqf and its Provisions
No full textThis research serves as a part and introduction to a master\u27s thesis in private law at King Abdulaziz University, focusing on the subject of "Waqf" (endowment). The researcher, “Majed bin Abdul Rahman Al-Bahar”, conducted this study under the guidance of Associate Professor of Civil Law, “Dr. Faisal bin Sutouf Al-Assaf”, at King Abdulaziz University in Jeddah. “Waqf" is one of the voluntary contracts that individuals conclude, driven by a desire for reward from Allah Almighty. It is a charitable act aimed at dedicating something beneficial to individuals or entities in need of support and assistance. Due to the importance of "Waqf" in society, this research addresses the answer to the issue of: "What are the legal rulings (ahkam) governing Waqf?" This inquiry encompasses various aspects falling under this overarching issue. The researcher has adopted a descriptive-analytical methodology to answer these questions. This was achieved through the description and analysis of legal articles related to Waqf as stipulated by the Saudi legislations, including the General Authority for Endowments law, the Civil Transactions law, and other relevant regulations. The researcher has arrived at several key findings, with some of the most notable being that Waqf is subject to specific conditions and elements that must be satisfied for its validity. Furthermore, the study highlights that Waqf is characterized by flexibility and inclusiveness, designed to address diverse human needs
Automatic White Blood Cell Differential Classification
No full textA Master of Science thesis in Mechatronics Submitted to the School of Engineering by Juma A. Bin Darwish Al-Muhairy, "Automatic White Blood Cell Differential Classification," June 2005. Thesis Advisor Dr. Yousef Al- Assaf. Available are Both Soft and Hard Copies of the Thesis.The characteristics (quantity, shape and color) of the white blood cell (WBC) can give vital information about a patient's health. Hematologists, with the aid of microscopes, use their experience to classify WBCs and make appropriate reporting and recommendations to physicians. Automating the segmentation and classification of WBC could provide a useful tool in medical diagnoses. In this work, computer-based segmentation and classification of the four main classes of WBC (Neutrophils, Eosinophils, Lymphocytes, and Monocytes) were completed. Soft computing algorithms including neural network (NN) and polynomial classifiers (PC) were used for WBC classification, while watershed and thresholding based on size, shape, color and texture characteristics were used to segment WBC from Red Blood Cells RBC, platelets, cell fragments and stains. Furthermore, characteristics of the WBC were utilized in association with the intelligent systems to classify these WBC's to different classes. The number and distribution of different classes of WBC has medical indications (e.g. high Neutrophils count may possibly imply cancer, whereas high Lymphocytes count could lead to AIDS). To classify WBC morphological based features, Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT) based features and Discrete Wavelets Transform (DWT) based features were used as input feature vectors to the Neural Networks NN and Polynomial Classifiers PC. Various iv feature extraction modalities and classifiers were tested on blood data obtained from patients at Twam Hospital in UAE. Combining color morphological and DWT features in association with the PC second order classifier achieved a Classification Accuracy (CA) of 99.3%. Other advantages of using PC was that it needed less computational requirements and classification was independent on various user-set parameters as it was the case of NN. In addition, PC proven to be more reliable and consistent in terms of results compared to NN.College of EngineeringMultidisciplinary ProgramsMaster of Science in Mechatronics Engineering (MSMTR
