The gibberellic acid-stimulated Arabidopsis (GASA) gene family is essential for plant growth and development, hormone level control, phytohormone signal transmission. Different plants have been shown to contain numerous GASA homologs. However, there no knowledge about these proteins in peanuts. In the current study, we performed a thorough bioinformatics expression analysis found 20, 22, 40 gen...

improving mechanical properties of composites based on strength-to-weight ratio has been gained much attention in various applications. having the most resistant and at the same time the lightest and the most economical structure is believed as an aim in these applications. these three factors are usually opposed to each other. so, applying optimization algorithms for improving mechanical prope...

this paper presents an efficient hybrid method, namely fuzzy particleswarm optimization (fpso) and fuzzy c-means (fcm) algorithms, to solve the fuzzyclustering problem, especially for large sizes. when the problem becomes large, thefcm algorithm may result in uneven distribution of data, making it difficult to findan optimal solution in reasonable amount of time. the pso algorithm does find ago...

Many real world problems can be modelled as an optimization problem. Evolutionary algorithms are used to solve these problems. Ant colony algorithm is a class of evolutionary algorithms that have been inspired of some specific ants looking for food in the nature. These ants leave trail pheromone on the ground to mark good ways that can be followed by other members of the group. Ant colony optim...

A novel hybrid method for tracking multiple indistinguishable maneuvering targets using a wireless sensor network is introduced in this paper. The problem of tracking the location of targets is formulated as a Maximum Likelihood Estimation. We propose a hybrid optimization method, which consists of an iterative and a heuristic search method, for finding the location of targets simultaneously. T...
