background and aim: with regard to the shortage of proper materials in persian for the evaluation of speech perception in children, this study aimed to develop the persian version of the bkb sentence test, and determine its content validity in normal persian speaking children aged 6-12 years. methods: this study was an applied research. the study procedure comprised sentence construction, deter...

background: the microarray technology is in needed of cost-effective, low background noise and stable substrates for successful hybridization and analysis. methods: in this research, we developed a three-dimentional stable and mechanically reliable microarray substrates by coating of two polymeric layers on standard microscope glass slides. for fabrication of these substrates, a thin film of ox...

the volterra model is widely used for nonlinearity identification in practical applications. in this paper, we employed volterra model to find the nonlinearity relation between electroencephalogram (eeg) signal and the noise that is a novel approach to estimate noise in eeg signal. we show that by employing this method. we can considerably improve the signal to noise ratio by the ratio of at le...

Objective(s): Microarrays are potential analyzing tools for genomics and proteomics researches, which is in needed of suitable substrate for coating and also hybridization of biomolecules.   Materials and Methods: In this research, a thin film of oxidized agarose was prepared on the glass slides which previously coated with poly-L-lysine (PLL). Some of the aldehyde groups of the activated aga...

in this paper, a new approach based on game theory has been proposed to multi responses problem optimization. game theory is a useful tool for decision making in the conflict of interests between intelligent players in order to select the best joint strategy for them through selecting the best joint desirability. present research uses the game theory approach via definition of each response as ...

The mixed-signal circuits with both analog and digital blocks on a single chip have wide applications in communication and RF circuits. Integrating these two blocks can cause serious problems especially in applications requiring fast digital circuits and high performance analog blocks. Fast switching in digital blocks generates a noise which can be introduced to analog circuits by the common su...

Here we consider approaches to the ranking of fuzzy numbers based upon the idea of associating with a fuzzy number a scalar value, its signal/noise ratios, where the signal and the noise are defined as the middle-point and the spread of each $gamma$-cut of a fuzzy number, respectively. We use the value of a as the weight of the signal/noise ratio of each $gamma$-cut of a fuzzy number to calcula...

the importance as well as the diculty of the problem of ranking fuzzy numbers is pointed out. here we consider approaches to the ranking of fuzzy numbers based upon the idea of associating with a fuzzy number a scalar value, its signal/noise ratios, where the signal and the noise are dened as the middle-point and the spread of each a-cut of a fuzzy number, respectively. we use the value of a ...
