Academic literature on the topic 'Hypothetical-deductive Methodology'

The quality of images obtained from video surveillance systems is a decisive aspect when performing investigations at the Forensic Science. Features such as scars, tattoos, and skin marks are great examples of details that allow to consolidate an investigation at certain scenarios in which there is the necessity to identify individuals captured in a video or image footage. However, the low quality of images could affect the results of the investigations. In this sense, this work proposes the study of a computational model to address the problem of increasing the resolution of Low-Resolution (LR) images, also known as the problem of super-resolution of images. The main idea is to train a Generative Adversarial Network (GAN) so that it can be able to enhance low-quality images. The hypothesis is that a variant model of a GAN, named Super-Resolution Generative Adversarial Network (SRGAN), is capable to produce High-Resolution (HR) images from LR ones. The proposed methodology is based on experimental research with the aid of the hypothetical deductive method, where two well-recognised state of art methods were used, which proposes the use of convolutional neural networks and deep learning. For the model validation, were conducted four different experiments: two to avail the capacity of the GAN to produce images with enhanced resolution and two other experiments to evaluate the quality of the results produced by the SRGAN. The quantitative results of our experiments are promising, with performances that are similar to those obtained by state-of-the-art approaches. Moreover, the qualitative results based on performing a visual analysis of the images produced by our approach suggest a interesting performance in terms of visual quality.

El presente articulo parte de la definición del concepto de espacio verde, exponiendo la situación actual en la que se encuentran, y cual es su papel en la trama urbana, así como la normatividad que define el desarrollo de las mismas, con el propósito de determinar su incidencia como indicador de calidad de vida urbana.
 Se presenta una metodología en desarrollo, basada fundamentalmente en una revisión bibliográfica sobre temas relevantes acerca del espacio verde, de carácter público durante los últimos años a nivel nacional e internacional, así como la manifestación del marco teórico conceptual que hace potencial su estudio en un proceso formal hipotético-deductivo con el grado de abstracción pura-aplicada y generalización de acción, en naturaleza de datos cuantitativos orientados a la toma de decisiones.
 En conclusión, los espacios verdes públicos son áreas pensadas para la sociedad que habita las ciudades y por tal motivo se les debe dar la importancia que requieren, tanto en su proyección, conservación y desarrollo, puesto que estos espacios son lugares de recreo y esparcimiento que presentan un beneficio ecológico a los habitantes urbanos, proyectando inclusive un deleite paisajístico para quien los vive. This article begins with the definition of green space, giving the current situation in which they are, and what is its role in the urban as well as the norms that define the development of the same, with the purpose of determining its incidence as an indicator of quality of urban life.
 It present a developing methodology, based mainly on a literature review on relevant issues concerning the public green space , in recent years both nationally and internationally, as well as the manifestation of conceptual theoretical framework that makes their study potential in a process hypothetical-deductive formal degree-applied pure abstraction and generalization of action, nature of quantitative data-oriented decision making.
 In conclusion, public green spaces are areas designed to society that lives in cities and for that reason should be given the importance that require, in its projection, conservation and development, as these spaces are places of recreation and relaxation that environmental purposes to benefit urban dwellers, including projecting a scenic delight for those who live them.
