several practical problems of hypotheses testing can be under a general linear model analysis of variance which would be examined. in analysis of variance, when the response random variable y , has linear relationship with several random variables x, another important model as analysis of covariance can be used. in this paper, assuming that y is fuzzy and using dlr metric, a method for testing ...

During necropsy of a specimen of Lagothrix cana (É. Geoffroy, 1812) (Primates: Atelidae) from the Brazilian Amazon, pinworms were found in the large intestine. The intensity of infection was 64 parasites (17 males and 47 females) and there were no gross pathological changes related to parasitism. After morphological analysis the parasites were identified as Trypanoxyuris (Paraoxyuronema) lagoth...

Fuzzy neural networks can be trained with crisp and fuzzy data. J. Buckley and Y. Hayashi have shown that these networks are monotonic (see 2]) when extension principle based operations are used to compute the network output. In this paper we show that these networks are also overlapping. This property provides us with a means to theoretically analyse the output behaviour of fuzzy neural networ...

There is an intricate relationship between milk production, fertility and survival of cows, which is further confounded by management decisions on the farm. Holsteinization and selection for high milk production can be associated with reduction in cow fertility (Pryce et al., 1998; Silvia, 1998; Harris and Winkelman, 2000) because of its impact on physiological factors affecting reproduction su...

The application of information retrieval techniques in interactive environments requires systems capable of efficiently processing vague queries. To reach reasonable response times, new data structures and algorithms have to be developed. In this paper we describe an approach taking advantage of the conditions of interactive usage and special access paths. To have a reference we investigate tex...
