    Nucleus detection on pap smear images for cervical cancer diagnosis: A review analysis
    Cervical cancer is a cell disease in the cervix that develops out of control in the female body. The cervix links the vagina (birth canal) with the upper section of the uterus, which can only be found in the female body. This is the second leading cause of death among women around the world. However, cervical cancer is currently one of the most preventable cancers if early detection is identified. The effect of unidentified cancer may increase the risk of death when the cell disease spreads to other parts of the female anatomy (metastasize). The Papanicolaou test is a cervical cancer screening technique used to identify potentially precancerous and cancerous cells in women's cervix. In this paper, a few popular detection method was applying and experimented on pap smear images. A few image quality assessment (IQA) was obtained in order to determine the best of detection method. The nucleus detection will help pathologists to diagnosis in early stages of cancer. The early detection is very important stage in order to reduce the cancer incidence and mortality. The method that needs to be invented in this study is the detection method. Image detection is the process of partitioning the image into multiple regions. The detection method is object detection and recognition as well as the boundary in images. The segmented Pap Smear image is one of the detection tools with many different methods that generated different results from different issues. The solution was by analysing different existing detection methods in order to compare the dissimilar performance of existing processes. The precision of the system performance needs to be improved in order to invent a new method. As predicted from the result, the innovative construction method must be proposed and compared in order to find accurate, comprehensive measures and proper sampling procedures by the features of the selection method.

    Statistical analysis in clinical gait analysis using Kinovea between normal and simulated abnormal gaits
    Kinematic analysis of human gait is an effective strategy to detect and assess an individual's gait to diagnose and develop and guide follow-on rehabilitation protocols. So, an accurate, objective gait analysis system has potential to facilitate rehabilitation process. System using smartphone-Kinovea represent an emerging technology for physical activity assessment and that may be relevant for gait analysis. The objective of this study was to determine gait displacement, speed and joint angle by using smartphone-Kinovea software system - to compare the normal gait with four distinct simulated gait abnormalities. Also, to assess validity of the proposed system by compared with QTM as gold standard. 30 participants completed an experiment in which they completed several gait trails on single day. Gait types were analyzed using statistical analysis (two-way MANOVA). As for validation assessment was analyzed using paired t-test by comparing proposed system with QTM. Results shows that joint angles for abnormal gaits are higher mean (Standard Deviation) compared to normal gait during HS and TO. While, normal gait exhibits higher mean (Standard Deviation) for d and s during both IDS and TDS phases compared to other four abnormal gaits in both genders. Also, there are significant different (p<0.05) of gait for all gait comparisons for all parameters, except hip angle of normal-HP with p=0.495. Moreover, there is some gait was similar with other gait due to they shared underlying kinematic aspects such as BA and DP. The validation of the system gives moderate result. These support that the smartphone-Kinovea system have potential in detecting and identifying abnormal gaits, and for future implementation in diagnosis and rehabilitation.

    Effect of Arm Swing Direction on Forward and Backward Jump Performance Based on Biomechanical Analysis
    Previous studies have examined the role of arm swing for various types of jumping technique, but none have been found to study about the gender differences in term of the role of arm swing on forward and backward jump. This study aimed to compare the jumping performance between male and female for forward and backward jump. Seven male and seven female subjects performed four trials of forward and backward jump with (FJA, BJA) and without arm swing (FJ, BJ) respectively. Qualisys Track Manager System, EEGO Sports, Visual3D and MATLAB software was used to record and analyze the performance. According to the result, the triceps brachii muscle is the most active muscle compared to other muscles during jumping. The normalized vGRF showed significant correlation with jump height when jumping forward and backward (p<0.01). The arm swing enhanced the jumping performance by increasing the jump height. Males demonstrated greater vGRF and jump height than females. When jump with arm swing, the left knee flexion angle of males increased whereas females decreased. These findings concluded there is different between males and females during jumping.
