we can reach by dna microarray gene expression to such wealth of information with thousands of variables (genes). analysis of this information can show genetic reasons of disease and tumor differences. in this study we try to reduce high-dimensional data by statistical method to select valuable genes with high impact as biomarkers and then classify ovarian tumor based on gene expression data of...

in this paper, the optimal location and characteristics of tadas dampers in moment resisting steel structures, considering the application of minimum number of tadas dampers in a building as an objective function and the restriction for destruction of main members is studied. genetic algorithm in first generation randomly produces different chromosomes representing unique tadas dampers distribu...

OBJECTIVE Reduced mental health (MH) is prevalent in rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Although longitudinal studies are limited, there is evidence that depression is associated with worse disease outcomes. We evaluated reciprocal relationships between MH, RA severity, and genetic risks for depression for 2 years in a well-characterized cohort of RA patients. METHODS We evaluated 520 early RA patien...

A mobile ad-hoc network (MANET), a set of wirelessly connected sensor nodes, is a dynamic system that executes hop-by-hop routing independently with no external help of any infrastructure. Proper selection of cluster heads can increase the life time of the Ad-hoc network by decreasing the energy consumption. Although different methods have been successfully proposed by researchers to tackle...

In recent years some multi-mode pushover procedures taking into account higher mode effects, have been proposed. The responses of considered modes are combined by the quadratic combination rules, while using the elastic modal combination rules in the inelastic phases is not valid. Here, an optimum weighted mode combination method for nonlinear static analysis is presented. Genetic algorithm is ...

the genetic diversity of 89 flue-cured tobacco varieties was examined using 12 issr primers. these cultivarswere evaluated at the guilan tobacco research center, rasht, iran, using a 7×7 simple lattice design with two replications, and 12 morphological traits. the total number of pcr amplified products was 143 bands ranging from 450 to 3000 bp, of which 108 bands (74.28%) were polymorphic. prim...
