Selective adsorption of carbon dioxide, methane and nitrogen using resorcinol-formaldehyde-xerogel activated carbon by Awadallah, Ahmed

“…Adsorption/desorption isotherms of CO2, CH4, and N2 gases onto RF-ACX adsorbent were measured gravimetrically by a magnetic suspension microbalance at five different temperatures (20, 30, 40, 50 and 60 °C) in the pressure range of 0–1 MPa. All adsorption/desorption isotherms were found to be favorable and well correlated with dual site Langmuir’s model. …”

A kernelized sparsity-based approach for best spectral bands selection for face recognition by Bouchech, H.J.

“…We formulate best spectral bands selection as a pursuit optimization problem wherein the vector of weights determining the importance of each visible spectral band is supposed to be sparse, and hence can be determined by minimizing its L1-norm. Several fusing approaches are then applied on selected best spectral bands using multi-scale and multi-orientation Gabor wavelets. …”
