In this paper, a novel four-dimensional (4D) autonomous chaotic system is presented. For chaos control of the 4D system, a linear feedback controller only with one variable is designed via matching the variable coefficients of the Lyapunov function, so that the system is no longer chaotic or periodic but globally asymptotically converges to the equilibrium point at the origin. The numerical sim...

Feedforward A/F control in turbocharged gasoline engines with variable valve timing requires knowledge of exhaust manifold pressure, Pe. Physical conditions in the manifold make measurement costly, compelling manufacturers to implement some form of on-line estimation. Processor limitations and the calibration process, however, put constraints on estimator complexity. This paper assesses the fea...

Background: The purpose of the current research, , was to examine the effectiveness on the basis of positive psychology, in particular, flourishing training on the anxiety and depression among studentsof Tizhooshan schools. Method: This used the pre-test and post-test control group design to achieve the purpose of the research and to determine the effectiveness. The sample of the research cons...

As an effort to make prosody useful in spontaneous speech recognition, we adopt a quasi-continuous prosodic annotation and accordingly design a prosody-dependent acoustic model to improve ASR performances. We propose a variable-parameter Hidden Markov Models, modeling the mean vector as a function of the prosody variable through a polynomial regression model. The prosodically-adapted acoustic m...

time-delay identification is one of the most important parameters in designing controllers. in the cases where the number of inputs and outputs in a system are more than one, this identification is of great concern. in this paper, a novel autocorrelation-based scheme for the state variable time-delay identification for multi-input multi-output (mimo) system has been presented. this method is ba...

identification of a real time of a change in a process, when an out-of-control signal is present is significant. this may reduce costs of defective products as well as the time of exploring and fixing the cause of defects. another popular topic in the statistical process control (spc) is profile monitoring, where knowing the distribution of one or more quality characteristics may not be appropr...

Treatment planning for ion therapy requires precise knowledge about the biological effectiveness of particle beams, which is strongly determined by the microscopic radial energy deposition around individual ion tracks. We analyse different amorphous track structure models based on simple analytical formulae as well as on radial dose distributions derived by means of Monte Carlo simulations. Mor...

Several methods are available for the molecular typing of Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex isolates. The results of the recent research demonstrated that Mycobacterial Interspersed Repetitive Unit (MIRU)-Variable Number Tandem Repeats (VNTR) method has high discriminatory power and reproducibility, is easy to perform, and available for multi-center studies and automation. However, there is in...

The objectives of this research are to analyze determining factors fraud in local government. This study used internal control effectiveness, compliance with accounting rules, compensation compliance, and unethical behavior as an independent variable, while the dependent variable. was conducted at Bantul government (OPD). sample were 86 respondents. uses a purposive sampling method. respondent ...

abstract. this study aims to identify and prioritize the factors affect the effectiveness of human resources at islamic azad university of karaj. the research is descriptive-survey method because researchers use a questionnaire, content validity and the experts’ point of views are used to assess the validity of questionnaire and cronbach's alpha was used to assess the reliability. to measu...
