The paper presents the correlation and correlation coefficient of single-valued neutrosophic sets (SVNSs) based on the extension of the correlation of intuitionistic fuzzy sets and demonstrates that the cosine similarity measure is a special case of the correlation coefficient in SVNS. Then a decision-making method is proposed by the use of the weighted correlation coefficient or the weighted c...

Representation of semantic information contained in the words is needed for any Arabic Text Mining applications. More precisely, the purpose is to better take into account the semantic dependencies between words expressed by the co-occurrence frequencies of these words. There have been many proposals to compute similarities between words based on their distributions in contexts. In this paper, ...

red fleshed apples have high levels of anthocyanins in their flesh. iran enjoys a large variety of these apples due to its location in central asia. in the present study, 20 genotypes including eight iranian red fleshed and 12 commercial iranian and foreign apples were selected for the study of genetic diversity of red fleshed apples. we used a set of 11 microsatellite markers (ssrs) to determi...

This paper describes the system used by the LIPN team in the task 10, Multilingual Semantic Textual Similarity, at SemEval 2014, in both the English and Spanish sub-tasks. The system uses a support vector regression model, combining different text similarity measures as features. With respect to our 2013 participation, we included a new feature to take into account the geographical context and ...

In the current research, we aim to define a new form of the similarity coefficient to compare the resemblance grade of two Gaussian density functions. We aim to assess the method utility on a theoretical model. The density functions are stated for a biological marker “survival length”, observed in three groups of patients, suffering from a hypothetical disease. The first group consists of patie...

Thirty rice cultivars were evaluated for salinity tolerance during the seedling stage and were divided into five tolerance groups including tolerant (T), moderately tolerant (MT), moderately susceptible (MS), susceptible (S) and highly susceptible (HS) which comprised 5, 10, 9, 4 and 2 cultivars respectively. Genetic diversity of all rice cultivars was evaluated using random amplified polymorph...

This paper presents a method for automatic segmentation of the prostate from transversal T2-weighted images based on 3D Active Appearance Models (AAM). The algorithm consist of two stages. Firstly, Shape Context based non-rigid surface registration of the manual segmented images is used to obtain the point correspondence between the given training cases. Subsequently, an AAM is used to segment ...
