as an assessment method of the water resources, water poverty index (wpi) has become an available tool in water resources management. in particular, agricultural water poverty index (awpi) is an assessment tool for agricultural water in rural areas. during the past decades, mahidasht basin in kermanshah province has been declared by water policy makers as “forbidden” basin in terms of water exp...

This paper presents a new method for comparing computational properties of λ-terms typeable with intersection types with respect to terms typeable with Curry types. In particular, strong normalization and λ-definability are investigated. A translation is introduced from intersection typing derivations to Curry typeable terms; the main feature of the proposed technique is that the translation is...

We study the evolution of the spectral index and the normalization (flux) of the non-thermal component of the electron spectra observed by RHESSI during 24 solar hard X-ray flares. The quantitative evolution is confronted with the predictions of simple electron acceleration models featuring the soft-hard-soft behaviour. The comparison is general in scope and can be applied to different accelera...

It is attractive to formulate problems in computer vision and related fields in term of probabilistic estimation where the probability models are defined over graphs, such as grammars. The graphical structures, and the state variables defined over them, give a rich knowledge representation which can describe the complex structures of objects and images. The probability distributions defined ove...

A spoof detection algorithm supports the speaker verification system to examine false claims by an imposter through careful analysis of input test speech. The scores are employed categorize genuine and spoofed samples effectively. Under mismatch conditions, acceptance ratio increases can be reduced appropriate score normalization techniques. In this article, we using normalized Discounted Cumul...

We study the radiative decay of Υ into a scalar glueball Υ → γGs using QCD factorization. We find that for this process the non-perturbative effects can be factorized into a matrix element well defined in non-relativistic QCD (NRQCD) and the gluon distribution amplitude. The same NRQCD matrix element appears also in leptonic decay of Υ and therefore can be determined from data. In the asymptoti...

One often wants to estimate statistical models where the probability density function is known only up to a multiplicative normalization constant. Typically, one then has to resort to Markov Chain Monte Carlo methods, or approximations of the normalization constant. Here, we propose that such models can be estimated by minimizing the expected squared distance between the gradient of the log-den...
