In this paper, a Sokol-Howell prey-predator model involving strong Allee effect is proposed and analyzed. The existence, uniqueness, and boundedness are studied. All the five possible equilibria have been are obtained and their local stability conditions are established. Using Sotomayor's theorem, the conditions of local saddle-node and transcritical and pitchfork bifurcation are derived and drawn. Numerical simulations are performed to clarify the analytical results
A modified Leslie-Gower predator-prey model with fear effect and nonlinear harvesting is developed and investigated in this study. The predator is supposed to feed on the prey using Holling type-II functional response. The goal is to see how fear of predation and presence of harvesting affect the model's dynamics. The system's positivity and boundlessness are demonstrated. All conceivable equilibria's existence and stability requirements are established. All sorts of local bifurcation occurrence conditions are presented. Extensive numerical simulations of the proposed model are shown in form of Phase portraits and direction fields. That is to guarantee the correctness of the theoretical results of the dynamic behavior of the system and to confirm the existence of various forms of bifurcations. The fear rate is observed to have a stabilizing effect up to a threshold value, after which it leads to prey extinction. The harvesting coefficients, on the other hand, serve as control parameters that, when exceeded, trigger the system to extinction.
Feature extraction is an important process for texture classification. This paper suggests two sets of features for texture analysis. In the first set of features, a set of fractal features is obtained from the eight wavelet sub-bands that are generated by applying Haar wavelet transform twice times according to dyadic architecture. The fractal features are determined using the differential box counting method. While for determining the second set of features, the cubic spline representation is applied to decompose the image signal into rough and smooth components; then applying the wavelet transform and finally compute the fractal dimension for all the sub-bands of both images. Each type of these two extracted feature sets is studied individually, and they are used together. Their overall performance is investigated. The proposed features set has been applied on two texture datasets, one consists of textures with directional properties, and the second set consists of textures samples that have directional attributes. The test results showed that the proposed methods give a high level of classification with images that have or do not have directional properties.
