In this paper, Face recognition is done using two feature extraction techniques PCA (Principal Component Analysis) and MPCA (Modular Principal Component Analysis). PCA is a linear projection method in which dimensionality reduction is applied to the original image space. MPCA is an improved version of PCA in which each image (Face image) is divided into number of sub-block image and then PCA is applied for each sub-block image. The experimental result shows the accuracy of PCA and MPCA for different database images.

Besides this, software companies are moving quickly to cut costs and streamline their application development process. Migration is not only the code conversion but it also involves analysis, estimates the code and followed by testing. The application migration involved in both the business and technology drivers it will provide different direction for migration from existing to the target. Microsoft Company recently stopped to support for VB6, many software companies are primarily working with VB environment, and the difficulty of achieving their application are overstated. This paper presents the issues that the programmer / user face, to migrate his / her code from VB6 to VB.NET.

Cancer detection is one of the hot research topics in the bioinformatics age. Data mining techniques, such as pattern association, classification and clustering is applied over gene expression data for detection of cancer. Accuracy is the vital thing to be considered during estimation over colon data. Association works on the basis of correlation, classification helps in categorizing and locate accurately, and clustering is the unsupervised learning ability that is able to discover hidden patterns of dataset. The objective of our work is to make comparative study about various clustering algorithms like simple K-means, global K-means, K-means++ and C5 over cancer dataset is made. Clustering algorithms are compared based on accuracy.

Literature reveals many supervised algorithms wherein the primary input is the number of segments to which the image is to be segmented. Currently researchers are focusing on un-supervised segmentation algorithms. The main advantage of the proposed method is that no a priori information is required to segment the given color image and hence considered as an unsupervised approach. The proposed method is found to be reliable and works satisfactorily on different kinds of color images. Subjective comparison and objective evaluation shows the efficacy of the proposed method over other existing methods.

This Web data is massive, dynamic in nature and is complex in nature. Extraction of potential Value from web is carried out through Data mining, but traditional data mining has a bottleneck in storage and computing when the data is too complex. Due to increasing number of providers a new technology-Cloud Computing is used which offers various web services which help to overcome this bottleneck. Meanwhile user's behavior and demands are changing sharply, in order to maintain a balance and maximize the revenue there is a desperate need for new principle. Now a day's most of the service providers are using a static method which neglects if there is a dynamic in the user behaviors. To solve the above problem we use cloud computing technology wherein we design a massive web log data which can be analyzed on a platform bases on cloud-Hadoop Framework. Along with it in order to improve the efficiency of the existing mining methods a parallel algorithm for web log mining is needed. The proposed algorithm can be used to parallel systems wherein the data is usually stored on cloud and also helps to identify the users using methods of cloud computing and Map Reduce techniques

It assigns a code for each pixel in the image, and the resultant LDP-encoded image is divided into regions for which each a histogram is generated. The histogram bins of all the regions are concatenated to form the final descriptor. In contrast to LDP, a dimensionality reduced local directional pattern (DR-LDP) is proposed in this paper. The proposed descriptor computes single code for each block by X-ORing the LDP codes obtained in a single block. During the process, restructuring of the patterns is done by slightly modifying the LDP coding pattern constraints. The significance of DR-LDP is the compact code generation for efficient face recognition. The experiments were carried out on standard databases like FERET, extended YALE-B database and ORL. The resultant DR-LDP descriptor provided better recognition rates, outperforming the existing local descriptor-based methods and proving its efficacy. The compact code can be further extended to provide biometric security.
