This paper develops a model for tightness time, linkage learning time for a single building block, in the linkage learning genetic algorithm (LLGA). First, the existing models for both linkage learning mechanisms, linkage skew and linkage shift, are extended and investigated. Then, the tightness time model is derived and proposed based on the extended linkage learning mechanism models. Experime...

the incidence of pre-lingual hearing loss (hl) is about 1 in 1000 neonates. more than 60% of cases are inherited. non-syndromic hl (nshl) is extremely heterogeneous: more than 130 loci have been identified so far. the most common form of nshl is the autosomal recessive form (arnshl). in this study, a cohort of 36 big arnshl pedigrees with 4 or more patients from 7 provinces of iran was investig...

This paper describes the findings from evaluating the performance of agglomerative hierarchical cluster methods for determining seasonal factor groups. Seasonal factor groups are usually determined by traditional cluster analysis based on various similarity measures. Agglomerative hierarchical methods merge telemetry traffic monitoring sites (TTMSs) into groups according to their similarities. ...

An Ackerman steering linkage for short wheelbase, four-wheel vehicles has been developed. The linkage coordinates the steering angle of each wheel through a range of 180 degrees with minimal misalignment between wheels. Control of steering angles is accomplished using a single linear actuator. Control complexity is lower compared to four-wheel systems using individually controlled steering actu...

Linkage analysis in two consanguineous pedigrees of Pakistani and English origin and one further Indian family in which affected subjects have Sjögren-Larsson syndrome (SLS) showed linkage to chromosome 17. Linkage of SLS to D17S783 and D17S805 has been reported in Swedish pedigrees, but since those data were generated from a single ethnic group originating from a common ancestor, there remaine...

We propose an algorithm for solving global optimization problems with objective functions of n-real variables and bounded constraints. This method basically uses sample lattice points and uses topographical information on objective function and a multilevel single linkage technique for avoiding repeated convergence to the same local minima. We show that the algorithm can calculate neighboring p...
