DIVCLUS-T is a descendant hierarchical clustering algorithm based on a monothetic bipartitional approach allowing the dendrogram of the hierarchy to be read as a decision tree. We propose in this paper a new version of this method called C-DIVCLUS-T which is able to take contiguity constraints into account. We apply C-DIVCLUS-T to hydrological areas described by agricultural and environmental v...

A semantics-based method for density-based clustering with constraints imposed by geographical background knowledge is proposed. In this paper, we apply an ontological approach to the DBSCAN (Density-Based Geospatial Clustering of Applications with Noise) algorithm in the form of knowledge representation for constraint clustering. When used in the process of clustering geographic information, s...

regarding the nature of non-linear discrete placement, and in order to determine the optimal capacity of the substation, the goal in the present study will be a number of local optimum points. in this research, the problem of optimal placement posts to reduce power losses by considering distributed generation (dg). in formulating the objective function, geographical distribution density in the ...

The study reported in this paper is based on two assumptions about the importance of the consistency of a geographical database. Firstly, consistency is an important factor concerning the quality of data. Secondly, consistency of a geographical object requires that the description of the context of the object is a part of the object definition. In object-oriented databases, it is possible to mo...

Time geography considers that the probability of moving objects distributed in an accessible transportation network is not always uniform, and therefore density function applied to quantitative time analysis needs consider actual constraints. Existing methods construct a kernel under constraints based on principle least effort each point shortest path between anchor points has same value. This,...

stress refers to the degree of force used in producing a syllable. all of the words in lexicon regardless of the apparent structure and the number of their syllables have their own stress. given that the regularities governing stress assignment in persian depend on the type of lexical category and that persian speakers have a tendency to assign stress at the end of words, the goal of the presen...
