This study explores a semi-supervised classification approach using random forest as a base classifier to classify the low-back disorders (LBDs) risk associated with the industrial jobs. Semi-supervised classification approach uses unlabeled data together with the small number of labelled data to create a better classifier. The results obtained by the proposed approach are compared with those o...

soil salinity has been a large problem in arid and semi arid regions. preparation of such maps is useful for natural resource managers. old methods of preparing such maps require a lot of time and cost. multi-spectral remotely sensed dates due to the broad vision and repeating of these imageries is suitable for provide saline soil maps. this investigation is conducted to provide saline soil map...

in order to capability investigation on landsat-7 satellite etm+ data in separability forest type and mapping in the zagros region, a small window digital data dating july 2001 from ghalajeh forests in the kermanshah province were analyzed. ground data were provided the cluster sampling method and with 0.36 ha. no radiometric error was found then the quality investigations. orthorectification w...

The concepts of robust classification and intelligently controlling the search process of genetic algorithm (GA) are introduced and integrated with a conventional genetic classifier for development of a new version of it, which is called Intelligent and Robust GA-classifier (IRGA-classifier). It can efficiently approximate the decision hyperplanes in the feature space. It is shown experime...

The study was conducted with the objective of mapping landscape cover of Nechsar National park in Ethiopia to produce spatially accurate and timely information on land use and changing pattern. Monitoring provides the planners and decision-makers with required information about the current state of its development and the nature of changes that have occurred. Remote sensing and Geographical Inf...

in land use planning, mapping the present land use / land cover situation is a necessary tool for determining the current condition and for identifying land use trends. in this study, in order to provide a land use/ land cover map for ilam watershed, the irs-1c image data from 25th april 2006 were used. initial qualitative evaluation on data showed no significant radiometric error. ortho-rectif...

land cover is one of basic data layers in geographic information system for physical planning and environmentalmonitoring. digital image classification is generally performed to produce land cover maps from remote sensing data,particularly for large areas. in the present study the multispectral image from irs liss-iii image along with ancillary datasuch as vegetation indices, principal componen...
