Abstract There are many situations in supervised learning where the acquisition of data is very expensive and sometimes determined by a user’s budget. One way to address this limitation active learning. In study, we focus on fixed budget regime propose novel algorithm for pool-based problem. The proposed method performs with pre-trained function so that maximum performance can be achieved when ...

A new nonlinear equalizer for digital transmission over a nonlinear satellite channel with a PSK modulation is presented in this paper. The nonlinear channel under consideration is assumed to have a Volterra series representation. By considering the channel equalization as a fixed point problem and taking advantage of the properties of a contraction m a p ping, we show that the transmitted data...

Global limited preemptive real-time scheduling in multiprocessor systems using Fixed Preemption Points (FPP) brings in an additional challenge with respect to the choice of the task to be preempted in order to maximize schedulability. Two principal choices with respect to the preemption approach exist 1) the scheduler waits for the lowest priority job to become preemptible, 2) the scheduler pre...

This paper revisits utilization bounds for a periodic resource under the rate monotonic (RM) scheduling algorithm. We show that the existing utilization bound, as presented in [8, 9], is optimistic. We subsequently show that by viewing the unavailability of the periodic resource as a deferrable server at highest priority, existing utilization bounds for systems with a deferrable server [3, 11] ...

The purpose of this study was to investigate the stability of the medial aspects of the rugae in patients where rapid maxillary expansion (RME) was performed in addition to fixed appliance therapy. Nineteen subjects that met the inclusion criteria for each group were randomly selected from the archive of one orthodontist office. The RME/fixed appliances group consisted of 8 males and 11 females...

Introduction: Although logbook is a useful tool in learning and assessment of the student, its use in the education of undergraduate dentistry students is not well-established. The present study was conducted to assess the effect of logbook as a study guide and an effective method for assessment of the students in the fixed prosthesis course. Methods: This quasi-experimental study was performed...

asimulation-optimization approach is proposed for replenishment planning andshelf space allocation. the customers’ demand is divided into fixed andvariable demand. each customer follows a given path while shopping in thestore. by dividing the store space into several zones and calculating therelated substantial and random utilities, an analytical equation is proposedfor the probability of zone ...
