محمد فاروق نعمانی

محمد فاروق نعمانی
افسوس ہے کہ ۲۶ و ۲۷؍ اپریل کی درمیانی شب میں جناب محمد فاروق نعمانی نے الٰہ آباد میں داعی اجل کو لبیک کہا، وہ مولانا شبلی کے برادر زادہ اور مولوی محمد اسحق صاحب وکیل ہائی کورٹ کے صاحبزادے تھے، جو اعظم گڑھ میں مولانا کے علمی و تعلیمی اور خاندانی جائداد اور زمینداری کے کاموں میں ان کے خاص دست و بازو تھے، ان کے انتقال پر مولانا نے ایسا پُر درد مرثیہ لکھا جو اردو کی عزائیہ شاعری میں بے مثال ہے، فاروق صاحب اس وقت کم سن تھے، اس کی طرف مولانا نے اس شعر میں اشارہ کیا ہے۔ ؂
لاڈلے ہیں کہ کسی اور کے بس کے بھی نہیں
اس کے بچے ابھی سات آٹھ برس کے بھی نہیں
فاروق صاحب شبلی کالج کے پرجوش اور سرگرم ممبر تھے، دارالمصنفین سے بھی ان کو گہرا اور جذباتی تعلق تھا، یہاں کی دعوتوں اور مجلسوں میں شریک رہتے، صوم و صلوٰۃ کے پابند تھے، لاگ لپیٹ ان کو نہیں آتا تھا۔ اﷲ تعالیٰ مغفرت فرمائے اور پس ماندگان کو صبر جمیل عطا کرے، آمین۔ (ضیاء الدین اصلاحی۔ مئی ۱۹۹۷ء)

 

Citizen’s Trust in Political Leadership and Parliament of Pakistan: A ComparativeStudy of Punjab and Sindh

Present study compares the level of public trust in political leadership and the parliament in two provinces of Pakistan: Punjab and Sindh. By applying ordinal logistic regression models, study finds that respondents from Punjab had significantly more trust in their leader and parliament of the country as compared to the participants from Sindh. The variable, government performance, was observed to be the major predictor of public trust in political leadership and parliament between Punjab and Sindh. Additionally, people’s interest in political affairs and conflict resolving behavior of leadership were two other variables which significantly predict public level of trust. The study suggests that respondents who were more interested in the political affairs revealed a high degree of trust in leadership and parliament. Conversely, participants who suffered from the lack of leadership interest in conflict resolving behavior showed low level of trust in both leadership and parliament in both provinces. It is concluded that public trust and distrust are significantly associated with the socio-economic development of the country. Present study may help to understand the factors that may cause public distrust in leadership and parliament of the country. ______

Variational Models for Segmentation of Texture Images

This dissertation is a contribution to computer vision and its analysis. The main work of this dissertation is to develop segmentation models for texture images. Texture segmentation aims at segmenting an image composed of textures, into distinct homogeneous regions with dissimilar texture features. For this purpose, some new variational texture image segmentation models are proposed. In these models, L0 norm smoothing and region based active contour approaches are utilized. Due to the smoothing and edge preserving properties of L0 gradient norm, the first proposed model utilizes L0 gradient norm for smoothing texture and minor details in the image and Mumford Shah data fidelity for segmentation. To get a texture free image, the model is minimized through alternating minimization algorithm and for segmentation, the model is minimized through Euler Lagrange’s equation. For efficient solution, the additive operator splitting method is applied to numerically solve the partial differential equations. As the L1 norm is more robust than L2 norm, therefore, in the next model, instead of the L2 norm, L1 norm is utilized in the data term and L0 gradient norm as a regularization for smoothing texture. For segmentation piecewise Mumford-Shah data term in level set formulation is used. Both the above models depend on the selection of initial contour and also producing staircasing problem. To resolve these issues, a convex variational model is proposed which is the unified form of L0 norm smoothing and convex minimization model. This model is independent of initial contour and overcome the problem of staircasing effect efficiently. Nevertheless, the model still producing problems when segmenting some hard textured images or when the image boundary is unclear and diffused. To overcome these problems, a joint smoothing and segmentation model by using piecewise smooth approximations is proposed. In this model, first, in the fidelity term instead of constant intensity means we approximated the image with piecewise smooth functions. Second, a signed pressure force function is utilized to stop the contours at minor or blurred boundaries and to speed up the process of contour movement. Third, L0 gradient norm is employed to smooth the textured image. In this dissertation, our second goal is to develop a texture image selective segmentation model. As in some cases it is very important to segment a region/part of interest from the whole image. Therefore to achieve this, some geometrical constraint are incorporated in the model. Furthermore, to fulfil our final goal, a multi-phase segmentation model via level set and L0 norm smoothing for texture images is proposed. This model may segment texture, noisy and inhomogeneous images more efficiently as compare to other state of the art models.
