چکیده

We show how students’ response patterns can be quantified both globally and locally using the concept of fractal dimension. This metric allows us to identify students who respond to a series of questions and problems in a persistent or anti-persistent manner with implications for personalized just-in-time teaching and learning.

Comparison Density and Fractal Dimension of Drainage Networks in Different Scales and Precision Different (Case Study: Ilam Watersheds)

Every phenomena in the nature, despite the complexity of the subject, has certain rules and regulations. River pattern and behavior as one of the most complex natural phenomena to this is not an exception. Depending on geomorphologic, climatic, topographic and erosive conditions, the waterways exhibit different patterns and behaviors. One of the parameters which can be achieved using the comple...

بررسی شارش فراکتالی سیالات ناهمگن روی سطوح شیبدار هموار و تعیین بعد فراکتالی و دسته جهانی آنها

  Patterns formed by the flow of an inhomogeneous fluid (suspension) over a smooth inclined surface were studied. It was observed that fractal patterns formed. There exists a threshold angle for the inclination above which, global fractal patterns are formed. This angle depends on the particle size of the suspension. We observed that there are two fractal dimensions for these patterns, dependin...

The Application of fractal dimension and morphometric properties of drainage networks in the analysis of formation sensibility in arid areas (Case Study, Yazd-Ardakan Basin)

Introduction: Many natural phenomena have many variables that make it difficult to find relationships between them using common mathematical methods. This problem, along with the impossibility of measuring all elements of nature, has led to a major evolution in the way of understanding and explaining phenomena. In this way, one can use the fractal geometry with the theory that many natural phen...

Diagnosis of B-CLL Leukemia Using Fractal Dimension

Background:Leukemia is cancer of blood and bone marrow cells. In general, there are four types of leukemia: chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML), acute myeloid leukemia (AML), B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) and acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL).  Fractal geometry can be introduced as one of the effective ways to detect this type of cancer. In this study, with introduc...

An Adaptive Segmentation Method Using Fractal Dimension and Wavelet Transform

In analyzing a signal, especially a non-stationary signal, it is often necessary the desired signal to be segmented into small epochs. Segmentation can be performed by splitting the signal at time instances where signal amplitude or frequency change. In this paper, the signal is initially decomposed into signals with different frequency bands using wavelet transform. Then, fractal dimension of ...
