introduction: kidney disease is a major public health challenge worldwide. epidemiologic data suggest a significant relationship between underlying diseases and decrease in glomerular filtration rate (gfr). clinical studies and laboratory research have shown that the mentioned parameter is effective in development and progression of the renal disease per se. in this study, we used learning-base...

Seismic hazard assessment like many other issues in seismology is a complicated problem, which is due to a variety of parameters affecting the occurrence of an earthquake. Uncertainty, which is a result of vagueness and incompleteness of the data, should be considered in a rational way. Using fuzzy method makes it possible to allow for uncertainties to be considered. Fuzzy inference system,...

grid computing is a term referring to the combination of computer resources from multiple administrative domains to reach a common computational platform. mobile computing is a generic word that introduces using of movable, handheld devices with wireless communication, for processing data. mobile computing focused on providing access to data, information, services and communications anywhere an...

in this paper, an adaptive neuro fuzzy sliding mode based genetic algorithm (anfsga) controlsystem is proposed for a ph neutralization system. in ph reactors, determination and control of ph isa common problem concerning chemical-based industrial processes due to the non-linearity observedin the titration curve. an anfsga control system is designed to overcome the complexity of precisecontrol o...

the uv-spectrophotometric method of analysis was proposed for simultaneous determination of fluoxetine (flx) and sertraline (srt). considering the strong spectral overlap between uv-vis spectra of these compounds, a previous separation should be carried out in order to determine them by conventional spectrophotometric techniques. here, full-spectrum multivariate calibrations adaptive neuro-fuzz...

prompt detection and diagnosis of faults in industrial systems areessential to minimize the production losses, increase the safety of the operatorand the equipment. several techniques are available in the literature to achievethese objectives. this paper presents fuzzy based control and fault detection for a6/4 switched reluctance motor. the fuzzy logic control performs like a classicalproporti...

One-third of the people with an age over twenty have some signs of degenerated discs. However, in most of the patients the mere presence of degenerative discs is not a problem leading to pain, neurological compression, or other symptoms. This paper presents an interval type-2 fuzzy hybrid rule-based system to diagnose the abnormal degenerated discs where pain variables are represented by interv...

the supplier selection is a multi-criteria decision making which consist both qualities and quantities metrics. a lot of investigations have been published in the supplier selection area and, most of the proposed models focused on manufacturing environments and a few papers have been allocated for service industries. proposed system utilizes new method that transfer the house of quality (hoq) a...
