Paradoxes of individual coherence (e.g., the preface paradox for individual judgment) and group coherence (e.g., the doctrinal paradox for judgment aggregation) typically presuppose that deductive consistency is a coherence requirement for both individual and group judgment. In this paper, we introduce a new coherence requirement for (individual) full belief, and we explain how this new approac...

A near-optimal midcourse trajectory shaping guidance algorithm is proposed for both air and ballistic target engagement mission attributes for generic long range interceptor missile. This guidance methodology is based on the maximum final velocity as the objective function and maximum permissible flight altitude as the in-flight state constraint as well as the head-on orientation as the termina...

Supervoxels find applications as a pre-processing step in many image processing problems due to their ability present regional representation of points by correlating them into set clusters. Besides reducing the overall computational time for subsequent algorithms, desirable properties supervoxels are adherence object boundaries and compactness. Existing supervoxel segmentation methods define s...

Composite stiffened cylindrical shells are widely used as primary elements in aerospace structures. In the recent years, there has been a growing research interest in optimum design of composite stiffened cylindrical shell structures for stability under buckling load.  This paper focuses upon the development of an efficient optimization of ring-stringer stiffened cylindrical shell. The opti...

in recent years, soft computing methods have generated a large research interest. the synthesis of the fuzzy logic and the evolutionary algorithms is one of these methods. a particular evolutionary algorithm (ea) is differential evolution (de). as for any ea, de algorithm also requires parameters tuning to achieve desirable performance. in this paper tuning the perturbation factor vector of de ...

development of monitoring systems to fault detection, in offensive and defensive systems, uav, aircraft and other complex systems technically make it possible and favorable, predictive diagnosis of faults. health management model and predict equipment failures (phm) were created in recent years by formation a strong bond of science in engineering, computer and reliability. for this reason, more...

migraine is a disabling headache disorder. that is characterized by recurrent unilateral pulsatile headaches. it is one of the most common neurological disorder in the world that nearly one billion of people are affected by migraines. the main migraine’s features are headaches. accompanying symptoms are nausea, sometimes vomiting, photophobia, neck pain and muscle tension. its attacks last seve...
