Based on the researches on controlling urban artery traffic, a hierarchical control method for traffic signals at artery multi-crossings is proposed. This control method, which uses wireless sensor networks and fuzzy control method, has two layers of WSN. The first layer is a data collecting layer which consists of terminal nodes and sink nodes. This data collecting layer is responsible for col...

In this paper, we present a binary-linear optimization model to prevent the spread of an infectious disease in a community. The model is based on the remotion of some connections in a contact network in order to separate infected nodes from the others. By using this model we nd an exact optimal solution and determine not only the minimum number of deleted links but also their exact positions. T...

In Artificial Intelligence classification is a process of identifying classes of a different entities on the basis information provided from the dataset. Extreme Learning Machine (ELM) is one of the efficient classifiers. ELM is formed by interconnected layers. Each layer has many nodes (neurons). The input layer communicates with hidden layer with random weight and produces output layer with t...

static deformation modulus is recognized as one of the most important parameters governing the behavior of rock masses. predictive models for the mechanical properties of rock masses have been used in rock engineering because direct measurement of the properties is difficult due to time and cost constraints. in this method the deformation modulus is estimated indirectly from classification syst...

This paper presents an on-line unsupervised learning mechanism for unlabeled data that are polluted by noise. Using a similarity threshold-based and a local error-based insertion criterion, the system is able to grow incrementally and to accommodate input patterns of on-line non-stationary data distribution. A definition of a utility parameter, the error-radius, allows this system to learn the ...

—An interplay between mobile devices and static sensor nodes is envisioned in the near future. This will enable a heterogeneous design space that can offset the stringent resource and power constraints encountered in traditional static sensor networks by taking advantage of the more powerful mobile devices. We present a systematic framework for end-to-end query processing, using a two-layer arc...

phaeohyphomycosis is an amalgam of clinical diseases caused by a wide variety of dematiaceous fungi. we are reporting on a 16 year-old patient from amol with subcutaneous cervical nodes and nasopharyngeal lesions of phaeohypho mycosis that were confirmed by pathological examination, direct smear, and culture. after treatment with an oral triazole (itraconazole) for 4 months, all nodes and lesio...
