recommender systems (rs) provide personalized recommendation according to user need by analyzing behavior of users and gathering their information. one of the algorithms used in recommender systems is user-based collaborative filtering (cf) method. the idea is that if users have similar preferences in the past, they will probably have similar preferences in the future. the important part of col...

an experiment was conducted to determine the appropriate methionine level in broiler breeder’s diet. the treatments consisted of 6 levels of methionine (0.2, 0.25, 0.3, 0.35, 0.4 and 0.45% diets), with 4 replicates of 7 hens each for a duration of 8 weeks and for ages of 28 to 35 weeks. diets contained similar levels of protein metabolizable energy. the levels of the other amino acids were take...

Abstract Understanding geographical characteristics of distribution patterns and spatial association is essential for statistical inference such as factor exploration prediction. The similarity principle was recently developed to explain the between variables. It describes comprehensive degree approximation a structure instead explicit relationships However, there are still challenges similarit...

in this paper, we present a revised similarity measure based onchen-and-chen's similarity measure for fuzzy risk analysis. the revisedsimilarity measure uses the corrected formulae to calculate the centre ofgravity points, therefore it is more  effective than the chen-and-chen'smethod. the revised similarity measure can overcome the drawbacks of theexisting methods. we have also proposed a new ...
