biomedical datasets usually include a large number of features relative to the number of samples. however, some data dimensions may be less relevant or even irrelevant to the output class. selection of an optimal subset of features is critical, not only to reduce the processing cost but also to improve the classification results. to this end, this paper presents a hybrid method of filter and wr...

estimation of the metal value in the metallic deposits is one of the important factors to evaluate the deposits in exploration studies andmineral processing. therefore, one accurate estimator is essential to obtain a fine insight into the accumulation of the ore body. thereare geostatistical methods for the estimation of the concentration of iron which performance of these models is complexity ...

since it is essential to deliver smoothed sinusoidal voltage to the customers, diagnosing power quality (pq) events has played important role in power delivery and conversion. this diagnostic scheme should be accurate to classify pq events from other events in power system. also it should be fast enough to rapidly mitigate pq events. in this paper, an algorithm based on core vector machine (cvm...

acute myelogenous leukemia (aml) is a subtype of acute leukemia, which is characterized by the accumulation of myeloid blastsin the bone marrow. careful microscopic examination of stained blood smear or bone marrow aspirate is still the most significantdiagnostic methodology for initial aml screening and considered as the first step toward diagnosis. it is time-consuming and dueto the elusive n...

t his paper presents a new feature selection approach for automatically extracting   ms lesions in 3d mr images. presented method is applicable to different types of ms lesions. in this method, t1, t2 and flair images are firstly preprocessed. in the next phase, effective features to extract ms lesions are selected by using a genetic algorithm. the fitness function of the genetic algorithm is t...

random number generation is one of the human abilities. it is proven that the sequence of random numbers generated by people do not follow full randomness criteria. these numbers produced by brain activity seem to be completely non stationary. in this paper, we show that there is a distinction between the random numbers generated by different people who provides the discrimination capability, a...

In classification, semi-supervised learning occurs when a large amount of unlabeled data is available with only a small number of labeled data. In such a situation, how to enhance predictability of classification through unlabeled data is the focus. In this article, we introduce a novel large margin semi-supervised learning methodology, utilizing grouping information from unlabeled data, togeth...

This paper deals with fault tolerant multiphase electrical drives. The quality of the torque of vector-controlled Permanent Magnet (PM) Synchronous Machine supplied by a multi-leg Voltage Source Inverter (VSI) is examined in normal operation and when one or two phases are open-circuited. It is then deduced that a seven-phase machine is a good compromise allowing high torque-to-volume density an...
