This document discusses direction-oriented interpolation (DOI) and its application to deinterlacing. It first reviews various deinterlacing methods like line doubling and edge-based line averaging. It then introduces DOI, which finds interpolation directions using block matching and uses direction vectors to interpolate missing pixels. Experimental results on test images show that DOI achieves PSNR values comparable or higher than other methods like line averaging and edge-based line averaging. Zoomed images also subjectively demonstrate the sharpness of DOI.
This document summarizes a research report on important contributors to implementing total quality management (TQM) in service-oriented organizations like banks in Pakistan. It finds that using both "soft" TQM elements like leadership and people management as well as "hard" TQM elements like process management leads to improved organizational performance. Specifically, the research shows that the relationship between soft TQM elements and performance is strengthened when hard TQM elements are also used. The document provides context on TQM and reviews relevant literature before presenting the results of the study on Pakistani banks.
The document describes the typical layout and design elements of a digipak album cover, including placing the artist's name and image prominently, listing track information and credits, using consistent color schemes and imagery related to the artist's genre.
Un logo identifica una entidad y tiene características como simplicidad, legibilidad y equilibrio. Un isotipo usa solo una imagen sin letras, mientras que un logotipo usa solo letras sin imagen. Un isologotipo combina ambos mediante la fusión de una imagen y texto en un solo elemento.
This company manufactures various sports shoes and sneakers. It started in 1972 as a family business that has been passed down through generations. The company chose to build its operations in China because it has the largest population, allowing for more workers to be paid lower wages, which increases the company's profits. China also has access to many raw materials and the company hopes to benefit China by providing more jobs.

This document summarizes a research study on the relationship between employee engagement, employee performance, and core self-evaluation in the health sector of Punjab, Pakistan. The study found:
1) Core self-evaluation fully mediated the relationship between employee engagement and task performance, as well as the relationship between employee engagement and organizational citizenship behavior directed at individuals.
2) Core self-evaluation partially mediated the relationship between employee engagement and organizational citizenship behavior directed at the organization.
3) Structural equation modeling indicated a good fit between the proposed mediation models and the data. Regression and mediation tests supported all hypotheses, showing core self-evaluation's mediating role in improving employee performance through engagement.
This document summarizes a research study that examined the relationship between perceived supervisor support, perceived organizational support, and workplace deviance among front-line bank employees in Pakistan. The study found that perceived organizational support partially mediates the impact of supervisor support on workplace deviance. Specifically, employees who feel more supported by their supervisors also feel more supported by their organization, leading to less deviant behaviors. This relationship provides insights for policies aimed at reducing counterproductive employee behaviors in Pakistani banks. However, the results are limited to the context of Pakistan.
This document summarizes a research study on important factors for implementing total quality management (TQM) in the Pakistani petrochemical sector. The study found that leadership, vision and plan statements, employee participation, and education/training are important constructs for TQM implementation. However, the study found that TQM culture is not well understood or adopted in Pakistani petrochemical companies due to a failure to adopt the TQM philosophy and processes. The research aims to help petrochemical executives better implement TQM practices to increase productivity and profits.
