objective: in recent years different hypotheses with respect to the formation of cerebral laterality were proposed. some of the researchers claim that cerebral dominance and laterality are determined by genetic factors, just as the case with eye color and blood type. however, another group states that in addition to genetic factors, environmental factors, too, have a remarkable role in hemisphe...

quality of service (qos) is an important issue in the design and management of web service composition. qos in web services consists of various non-functional factors, such as execution cost, execution time, availability, successful execution rate, and security. in recent years, the number of available web services has proliferated, and then offered the same services increasingly. the same web ...

The concepts of robust classification and intelligently controlling the search process of genetic algorithm (GA) are introduced and integrated with a conventional genetic classifier for development of a new version of it, which is called Intelligent and Robust GA-classifier (IRGA-classifier). It can efficiently approximate the decision hyperplanes in the feature space. It is shown experime...

breeding programs strategies depends on genetical mechanism of selection traits. in the present research, generation mean analysis with joint scaling test was performed to determine the gene action. f1, f2 and f3 generations, derived from roushan and kavir cross along with their parents were sown in a partial lattice design with two replications under stress condition at the research field of s...

diallel crosses of eight genotypes of safflower were conducted and f1 and f2 generations were evaluated to estimate genetic parameters for seed-quality related traits including protein contents (%), fiber, ash and oil yeild. griffing’s methods 1 and 2 for f1 and f2 generations was used, respectively. sixty four genotypes including 8 parents and 56 f1 progenies, and half diallel crosses of f2 ge...

We investigate incomplete search algorithms in a search space constrained by a dominance criterion. We propose a new genetic algorithm for the Multiple Knapsack Problem (MKP) which searches a space of candidates which are not dominated according to a dominance criterion. We compare the new algorithm to previous heuristics for the MKP, as well as alternative algorithms, and show experimentally t...
