    The Experience of Regional Transformation of Islamic Political Thought in Europe: Tariq Ramadan

    No full text
    The article is dedicated to the experience of regional transformation of Islamic political thought in Europe, based on an example of Tariq Ramadan philosophical concept. Author analyzed Ramadan's views on a role of Islam in new conditions, religious identity of believers, political and legal systems, reaction to modernization challenges of the present and ways of their overcoming. This concept can become the alternative in forming dialogue between East and West, in modernization of Islamic communities and opposition to Islamic radicalism

    Skull stripping using traditional and soft-computing approaches for magnetic resonance images : a semi-systematic meta-analysis

    No full text
    MRI scanner captures the skull along with the brain and the skull needs to be removed for enhanced reliability and validity of medical diagnostic practices. Skull Stripping from Brain MR Images is significantly a core area in medical applications. It is a complicated task to segment an image for skull stripping manually. It is not only time consuming but expensive as well. An automated skull stripping method with good efficiency and effectiveness is required. Currently, a number of skull stripping methods are used in practice. In this review paper, many soft-computing segmentation techniques have been discussed. The purpose of this research study is to review the existing literature to compare the existing traditional and modern methods used for skull stripping from Brain MR images along with their merits and demerits. The semi-systematic review of existing literature has been carried out using the meta-synthesis approach. Broadly, analyses are bifurcated into traditional and modern, i.e. soft-computing methods proposed, experimented with, or applied in practice for effective skull stripping. Popular databases with desired data of Brain MR Images have also been identified, categorized and discussed. Moreover, CPU and GPU based computer systems and their specifications used by different researchers for skull stripping have also been discussed. In the end, the research gap has been identified along with the proposed lead for future research work

    Micro load balancing with delayed queue lengths

    No full text
    DRILL is a micro load balancing algorithm designed to efficiently utilize the path redundancy in modern data centers. It uses egress port queue lengths to make fast packet routing decisions to reduce upstream congestion and queueing delays. However, high performance switches with multiple forwarding engines making routing decisions in parallel, do not have direct access to these queue lengths. We explore and evaluate different ways of obtaining this information in data center settings, specifically using incoming traffic and specially generated update packets to piggyback this information. We find that staleness of this data does not have a huge impact on flow completion times compared to DRILL (6% increase) and still achieves a considerable advantage over ECMP (28% decrease).Submission published under a 24 month embargo labeled 'U of I Access', the embargo will last until 2021-05-01The student, Fatima Tariq, accepted the attached license on 2019-04-21 at 23:01.The student, Fatima Tariq, submitted this Thesis for approval on 2019-04-21 at 23:17.This Thesis was approved for publication on 2019-04-22 at 10:41.DSpace SAF Submission Ingestion Package generated from Vireo submission #13809 on 2019-08-22 at 15:07:38Made available in DSpace on 2019-08-23T20:36:05Z (GMT).

    A Quantum based Evolutionary Algorithm for Stock Index and Bitcoin Price Forecasting

    No full text
    Quantum computing has emerged as a new dimension with various applications in different fields like robotic, cryptography, uncertainty modeling etc. On the other hand, nature inspired techniques are playing vital role in solving complex problems through evolutionary approach. While evolutionary approaches are good to solve stochastic problems in unbounded search space, predicting uncertain and ambiguous problems in real life is of immense importance. With improved forecasting accuracy many unforeseen events can be managed well. In this paper a novel algorithm for Fuzzy Time Series (FTS) prediction by using Quantum concepts is proposed in this paper. Quantum Evolutionary Algorithm (QEA) is used along with fuzzy logic for prediction of time series data. QEA is applied on interval lengths for finding out optimized lengths of intervals producing best forecasting accuracy. The algorithm is applied for forecasting Taiwan Futures Exchange (TIAFEX) index as well as for Bitcoin crypto currency time series data as a new approach. Model results were compared with many preceding algorithms

    Students are one component of education. Students have the potential to be developed to become established. While the factors that can develop students\u27 self potential are themselves and their additional factors relating to parents, environment and education. Islamic education has the task of creating students to understand the purpose of attracting and understanding their work on earth. Because the education received is not only theoretical and dogmatic, but also recognition of the conceptual. Especially things related to life ethics must be owned by these students. Can be considered about ethics that can be done easily, then comes the ethical concepts of students as outlined in the discussion or ideas about matters related to the ethics of students expressed by many Muslims, one of which is the author of the book Ta\u27lim al-Muta \u27 allim Tariq al-Ta\u27allum, Burhanuddin al-Zarnuji. This research is a qualitative descriptive study with the type of literature study, with primary data sources Ta\u27lim al-Muta\u27allim Tariq al-Ta\u27allum by al-Zarnuji, and supported by secondary data sources such as journals, magazines and data discussed about the theme written in this article. The results of this study are expected to be able to arouse Muslim awareness and adjust the appropriateness of Islamic education leaders and inspire more complex and integral research on learner ethics
