BACKGROUND End Stage Renal Failure (ESRD) is the last stage of the chronic renal failure in which kidneys become completely fail to function. AIM The basic aim of this study was to discover the important risk factors of ESRD and to construct a model for prediction of the ESRD patients in various hospitals of Peshawar, Pakistan. MATERIAL AND METHODS The data were collected from the patients ...

Background: Models of codon evolution have proven useful for investigating the strength and direction of natural selection. In some cases, a priori biological knowledge has been used successfully to model heterogeneous evolutionary dynamics among codon sites. These are called fixed-effect models, and they require that all codon sites are assigned to one of several partitions which are permitted...

‎In this paper‎, ‎we use a complete pivoting strategy to compute the IUL preconditioner obtained as the by-product of the Backward Factored APproximate INVerse process‎. ‎This pivoting is based on the complete pivoting strategy of the Backward IJK version of Gaussian Elimination process‎. ‎There is a parameter $alpha$ to control the complete pivoting process‎. ‎We have studied the effect of dif...

Selecting appropriate features has become a key task when dealing with high-dimensional data. We present a new algorithm designed to find an optimal solution for classification tasks. Our approach combines forward selection, backward elimination and exhaustive search. We demonstrate its capabilities and limits using artificial and real world data sets. Regarding artificial data sets interleavin...
