Modern studies in the field of environment science and engineering show that deterministic models struggle to capture the relationship between the concentration of atmospheric pollutants and their emission sources. The recent advances in statistical modeling based on machine learning approaches have emerged as solution to tackle these issues. It is a fact that, input variable type largely affec...

In this paper we propose and examine a Vector Supported Convex Hull method for feature subset selection. Within feature subspaces, the method checks locations of vectors belonging to one class with respect to the convex hull of vectors belonging to the other class. Based on such analysis a coefficient is proposed for evaluation of subspace discrimination ability. The method allows for finding s...

In this paper, using a personal computer (PC), the practical implementation of scalar and vector control methods on a three–phase rotor surface- type permanent magnet synchronous machine drive is discussed. Based on the machine dynamic equations and the above control strategies, two block diagrams are presented first for closed-loop speed controlling of the machine drive/system. Then, the desig...

according to recent developments of predicting methodsin financial markets, and since the stock price is one of the mostimportant factors for investment decision-making, and its predictioncan play an important role in this field, the aim of this study is toprovide a model to predict the stock price movement with highaccuracy. accordingly, a hybrid model for predicting the stock pricemovement us...

Variable Metric Methods are "Newton-Raphson-like" algorithms for unconstrained minimization in which the inverse Hessian is replaced by an approximation, inferred from previous gradients and updated at each iteration, During the past decade various approaches have been used to derive general classes of such algorithms having the common properties of being Conjugate Directions methods and having...

Constitutive modeling of clay is an important research in geotechnical engineering. It is difficult to use precise mathematical expressions to approximate stress-strain relationship of clay. Artificial neural network (ANN) and support vector machine (SVM) have been successfully used in constitutive modeling of clay. However, generalization ability of ANN has some limitations, and application of...

based on the problems caused by today conventional vehicles, much attention has been put on the fuel cell vehicles researches. however, using a fuel cell system is not adequate alone in transportation applications, because the load power profile includes transient that is not compatible with the fuel cell dynamic. to resolve this problem, hybridization of the fuel cell and energy storage device...
