internet applications spreading and its high usage popularity result insignificant increasing of cyber-attacks. consequently, network security has becomea matter of importance and several methods have been developed for these attacks.for this purpose, intrusion detection systems (ids) are being used to monitor theattacks occurred on computer networks. data mining techniques, machinelearning, ne...

background : breast cancer survival has been analyzed by many standard data mining algorithms. a group of these algorithms belonged to the decision tree category. ability of the decision tree algorithms in terms of visualizing and formulating of hidden patterns among study variables were main reasons to apply an algorithm from the decision tree category in the current study that has not studied...

We used the two available calculation algorithms of the Varian Eclipse 7.3 three-dimensional (3D) treatment planning system (TPS), the anisotropic analytic algorithm (AAA) and pencil-beam convolution (PBC), to compare measured and calculated two-dimensional enhanced dynamic wedge (2D EDW) dose distributions, plus implementation of the dynamic wedge into the TPS. Measurements were carried out fo...

High atomic number and density of dental implants leads to major problems at providing an accurate dose distribution in radiotherapy and contouring tumors and organs caused by the artifact in head and neck tumors. The limits and deficiencies of the algorithms using in the treatment planning systems can lead to large errors in dose calculation, and this may adversely affect the patient's treatme...
