The alpha-beta tree search algorithm can be improved through the use of minimal windows. Branches are searched with a minimal window [α,α+l] wi th the expectancy that this wi l l show the sub-tree to be inferior. If not, then that sub-tree must be re-searched. In this paper, several methods are discussed to minimize the cost of the re-search. Two new algorithms, INS and PNS, are introduced and ...

The max-k-cut problem is to partition the vertices of a weighted graph G = (V, E) into k ≥ 2 disjoint subsets such that the weight sum of the edges crossing the different subsets is maximized. The problem is referred as the max-cut problem when k = 2. In this work, we present a multiple operator heuristic (MOH) for the general max-k-cut problem. MOH employs five distinct search operators organi...

ABSTRACT We measure the evolution of rest-frame UV luminosity function (LF) and stellar mass (SMF) Lyman-α (Ly α) emitters (LAEs) from z ∼ 2 to 6 by exploring ∼4000 LAEs SC4K sample. find a correlation between Ly α (LLy (MUV), with best fit M$_{\rm UV}=-1.6_{-0.3}^{+0.2}\log _{10} (\rm L_{Ly\,\alpha }/erg\, s^{-1})+47_{-11}^{+12}$ shallower relation LLy (M⋆), $\log M_\star /{\rm M}_\odot)=0.9_{...

the effects of sodium chloride (nacl) salinity (control; canal water with 0.4 ds m-1), 2.5 dsm-1, 5.0 ds m-1, 7.5 ds m-1 and 10.0 ds m-1, respectively) developed after 6 weeks of pruning (beginning of study) on plant growth, flowering and quality of three cut rose (rosa hybrida l.) cultivars viz. ‘kardinal’, ‘angelique’ and ‘gold medal’ were studied to achieve better management, quality product...

the notion of strong arcs in a fuzzy graph was introduced bybhutani and rosenfeld in [1] and fuzzy end nodes in the subsequent paper[2] using the concept of strong arcs. in mordeson and yao [7], the notion of“degrees” for concepts fuzzified from graph theory were defined and studied.in this note, we discuss degrees for fuzzy end nodes and study further someproperties of fuzzy end nodes and fuzz...

objective(s):ethnopharmacological field surveys demonstrated that many plants, such as gentiana olivieri, helichrysum graveolens, helichrysum plicatum ssp. plicatum, juniperus oxycedrus ssp. oxycedrus, juniperus  communis var. saxatilis, viscum album (ssp. album, ssp. austriacum), are used as traditional medicine for diabetes in different regions of anatolia. the present study was designed to e...

Heterozygous haemoglobin E (Hb E) with deletional alpha (α)-thalassaemia is commonly seen in Southeast Asia including Kelantan, a Northeastern state of Malaysia. Studies Malaysia showed that Hb the commonest among Malay Penang and Senoi group Orang Asli [1-5].
 
 This study aimed to compare haematological parameters (Hb, RBC, MCV, MCH, RDW heterozygous α-thalassaemia subjects. also in...

This paper introduces the concept of low-congestion shortcuts for (near-)planar networks, and demonstrates their power by using them to obtain near-optimal distributed algorithms for problems such as Minimum Spanning Tree (MST) or Minimum Cut, in planar networks. Consider a graph G = (V,E) and a partitioning of V into subsets of nodes S1, . . . , SN , each inducing a connected subgraph G[Si]. W...
