In this paper, first, an initial feature vector for vocal fold pathology diagnosis is proposed. Then, for optimizing the initial feature vector, a genetic algorithm is proposed. Some experiments are carried out for evaluating and comparing the classification accuracies which are obtained by the use of the different classifiers (ensemble of decision tree, discriminant analysis and K-nearest neig...

Accurate protein function prediction is an important subject in bioinformatics, especially wheresequentially and structurally similar proteins have different functions. Malate dehydrogenaseand L-lactate dehydrogenase are two evolutionary related enzymes, which exist in a widevariety of organisms. These enzymes are sequentially and structurally similar and sharecommon active site residues, spati...

Background: Today, with the advancement of technology in various fields, the importance of recording data in the field of health is increasing so much that for many diseases around the world, including kidney disease, registration systems have been set up. This is happening in our country and in the future, the number of these systems will increase. The medical data set contains valuable inform...

background: toxoplasma gondii is an obligate intracellular parasite and its sexual and asexual cycles, respectively take place in the intestinal epithelial cell of definitive host and tissue of intermediate hosts. congenital toxoplasmosis is more impor tant when the mother acquired the infection during pregnancy period for the first time. serological tests are the only meth ods for diagnosis of...

This report presents some results and findings of our work on very-lowbit-rate video compression systems using vector quantization (VQ). We have identified multiscale segmentation and variable-rate coding as two important concepts whose effective use can lead to superior compression performance. Two VQ algorithms that attempt to use these two aspects are presented: one based on residual vector ...

Classical LBP such as complexity and high dimensions of feature vectors that make it necessary to apply dimension reduction processes. In this paper, we introduce an improved LBP algorithm to solve these problems that utilizes Fast PCA algorithm for reduction of vector dimensions of extracted features. In other words, proffer method (Fast PCA+LBP) is an improved LBP algorithm that is extracted ...

an internal ballistics model has been developed for performance prediction of a solid propellant rocket motor. inthis model a 1-d unsteady euler equation with source terms is considered. the flow is assumed as a non-reacting mixture of perfect gases with space and time varying thermo physical properties. the governing equations in the combustion chamber are solved numerically by using the stege...

to prospect mineral deposits at regional scale, recognition and classification of hydrothermal alteration zones using remote sensing data is a popular strategy. due to the large number of spectral bands, classification of the hyperspectral data may be negatively affected by the hughes phenomenon. a practical way to handle the hughes problem is preparing a lot of training samples until the size ...

Vector wavelet transforms for vector-valued fields can be implemented directly from multiwavelets; however, existing multiwavelets offer surprisingly poor performance for transforms in vector-valued signalprocessing applications. In this paper, the reason for this performance failure is identified, and a remedy is proposed. A multiwavelet design criterion, omnidirectional balancing, is introduc...
