in order to determine optimum landuses (in accordance with natural capability) and improve the current land management, landuse planning process was applied by using gis. within the framework of system analysis approach basic ecological and socio-economic , data were mapped. the mapped data were digitized and imported to idrisi and arc/info to build a database ,along with other descriptive data...

Weak lensing maps contain information beyond two-point statistics on small scales. Much recent work has tried to extract this information through a range of different observables or via nonlinear transformations of the lensing field. Here we train and apply a 2D convolutional neural network to simulated noiseless lensing maps covering 96 different cosmological models over a range of {Ωm, σ8}. U...

High-resolution TEM is well-suited to characterizing nanocrystals, where lattice fringes serve as a source of structural information [1, 2]. For example, 3D lattice parameters can be measured from 2D lattice fringe images taken at as few as two different specimen orientations [3-6]. Recent work has shown that lattice fringe-visibility maps, a thin-specimen extension of bend-contour and channeli...

The knowledge of the surface topography has a major importance in the field of Earth sciences. It is essential in any discipline concerned with process modeling like hydrology, climatology, geomorphology and ecology. The present study utilized Environmental Systems Research Institute’s (ESRI) ArcGIS 9.3 (with the spatial analyst extension) software, remote sensing data ( DEM and Digital Aerial ...

To overcome harmonic structure distortions of complex tones in the low frequency range due to the frequency to electrode mapping function used in Nucleus cochlear implants, two modified frequency maps based on a semitone frequency scale (Smt-MF and Smt-LF) were implemented and evaluated. The semitone maps were compared against standard mapping in three psychoacoustic experiments with the three ...
