up to three decades ago, economic statistics could systematically meet the statistical needs and economic views quantitative analyses requirements (known as growth – centered views) in the framework of national accounts and input-output tables. however, owing to the insensitivity of these views to simultaneous survey of socio-economic issues, no attention has been paid to systematizing social s...

This study was conducted to investigate the effect of meaning-focused versus form-focused input-oriented and output-oriented task-based instruction on elementary level Iranian EFL Learners’ vocabulary comprehension and recall. For this purpose, a sample of 120 male students from a private school in Tehran was selected through convenience sampling and based on availability. The participants were...

In supervised machine learning, variable ranking aims at sorting the input variables according to their relevance w.r.t. an output variable. In this paper, we propose a new relevance criterion for variable ranking in a regression problem with a large number of variables. This criterion comes from a discretization of both input and output variables, derived as an extension of a Bayesian non para...

This paper presents the analysin ,design and implementation of a high voltage ratio topology of DC-DC converter. The DC-DC converter has high voltage ratio with reduced input current, output voltage and output current ripple, and also reduces the voltage and current rating of power electronics components and compared with conventional boost converter. The voltage stress on the switches are  red...

the planning of water resources is based on the volume of water extracted from the aquifer and accurate estimate of this volume considerably helps to development. in this study, the bayesian networks model using continues and clustering structures was used to simulate the groundwater level of birjand aquifer. bayesian networks was calibrated with five input variables of aquifer recharge, water ...
