We introduce a markup language based upon XML for working with the predictive models produced by data mining systems. The language is called the Predictive Model Markup Language (PMML) and can be used to define predictive models and ensembles of predictive models. It provides a flexible mechanism for defining schema for predictive models and supports model selection and model averaging involvin...

In applied studies, the investigation of the relationship between a plant species and environmental variables is essential to manage ecological problems and rangeland ecosystems. This research was conducted in summer 2016. The aim of this study was to compare the predictive power of a number of Species Distribution Models (SDMs) and to evaluate the importance of a range of environmental variabl...

this paper describes 3d-qsar analysis and biological evaluation of 1,5-benzodiazepine analogues. benzodiazepine nucleus with its simple structure gives a good opportunity for further modification regarding an increase of its antimicrobial activity. we synthesized a series of benzodiazepine analogues from condensation of various chalcones and halo substituted o-phenelynene diamines. all compound...

this paper reports on the use of artificial neural networks (ann) and partial least squareregression (pls) combined with nir spectroscopy (900-1700 nm) to design calibration models for thedetermination of sugar content in sugar beet. in this study a total of 80 samples were used as the calibration set,whereas 40 samples were used for prediction. three pre-processing methods, including multiplic...

introduction: adolescents are the important portions of the iranian population. adolescents health status has a critical role in their learning ability and their performance. the present study aimed to determine the predictive factors for general health status in iranian high school students in 2014. materials and methods: in a cross-sectional study evaluated the predictive factors for general ...

Predictive modeling of habitat distribution of range plant species and identification of their potential habitats play important roles in the restoration of disturbed rangelands. This study aimed to predict the geographical distribution of Artemisia sieberi and find the influential variables in the distribution of A. sieberi in the desert rangelands of central Iran. Maps of environmental variab...
