چکیده

We use standard results from convex geometry to obtain representations of the prior and posterior degrees of imprecision in terms of width functions and difference bodies. These representations are used to construct algorithms for the calculation of the prior and the posterior degree of imprecision. 2006 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

روابط جدید زمان چرخه بهینه برای تقاطع‌های پیش‌زمان‌بندی شده مستقل با تغییر رابطه وبستر براساس روش HCM 2000

When the degree of saturation at intersection approaches one, Webster’s optimum cycle length equation becomes inapplicable, because the cycle length will becomes very big when the degree of saturation approaches one and will be fully unrealistic when the degree of saturation becomes greater than one. This is not a problem for HCM2000 method. But optimum cycle length calculation in this method h...

The second geometric-arithmetic index for trees and unicyclic graphs

Let $G$ be a finite and simple graph with edge set $E(G)$. The second geometric-arithmetic index is defined as $GA_2(G)=sum_{uvin E(G)}frac{2sqrt{n_un_v}}{n_u+n_v}$, where $n_u$ denotes the number of vertices in $G$ lying closer to $u$ than to $v$. In this paper we find a sharp upper bound for $GA_2(T)$, where $T$ is tree, in terms of the order and maximum degree o...

Combining Geometric and Gabor Features for Face Recognition

In automated face recognition, a human face can be described by several features, but very few of them are used in combination to improve discrimination ability. This paper demonstrates how different feature sets can be used to enhance discrimination for the purpose of face recognition. We have used geometrical features and Gabor features in combination for face recognition. The geometrical fea...

A Note on the First Geometric-Arithmetic Index of Hexagonal Systems and Phenylenes

The first geometric-arithmetic index was introduced in the chemical theory as the summation of 2 du dv /(du  dv ) overall edges of the graph, where du stand for the degree of the vertex u. In this paper we give the expressions for computing the first geometric-arithmetic index of hexagonal systems and phenylenes and present new method for describing hexagonal system by corresponding a simple g...

Analysis of Variability in the Design of Wood Products under Imprecision

The design and analysis of many products is performed with imprecisely known parameters, relationships, and environmental conditions. This is especially true for wood products which exhibit greater variability than most materials. Fuzzy set theory applied to the design and analysis of wood products is regarded as a promising approach for modeling the geometric and mechanical property variabilit...
