classification of heart arrhythmia is an important step in developing devices for monitoring the health of individuals. this paper proposes a three module system for classification of electrocardiogram (ecg) beats. these modules are: denoising module, feature extraction module and a classification module. in the first module the stationary wavelet transform (swf) is used for noise reduction of ...

allocation and removing of excess water from the irrigation and drainage network is one of the most important activities in the management of these networks. side weir is one of the most common structures for this purpose. study on the flow hydraulic characteristics of this structure included two parts, defining the water surface profiles and estimating the discharge coefficient. to estimate th...

A major emphasis in geomorphology over the past several decades has been on the development of quantitative physiographic methods to describe the evolution and behavior of surface drainage networks. The quantitative analysis of morphometric parameters is found to be of immense utility in river basin evaluation. The influence of drainage morphometry is very significant in understanding the landf...

The amount and spatial distribution of deep drainage (downward movement of water across the bottom of the root zone) and groundwater recharge affect the quantity and quality of increasingly limited groundwater in arid and semiarid regions. We synthesize research from the fields of ecology and hydrology to address the issue of deep drainage in arid and semiarid regions. We start with a recently ...

Unlike the simplification of independent line features, the generalization of terrain contour is to handle the “line group”, which describes the geomorphologic characteristics, such as the terrain valley and ridge. In decision level, the real operation object in terrain generalization is not line segment itself but the drainage network contained in the contour representation. This paper present...

A thin coal seam mined as a protective coal seam above a gas outburst coal seam plays a central role in decreasing the degree of stress placed on a protected seam, thus increasing gas permeability levels and desorption capacities to dramatically eliminate gas outburst risk for the protected seam. However, when multiple layers of coal seams are present, stress-relieved gas from adjacent coal sea...
