this paper presents a hybrid approach to developing a short-term traffic flow prediction model. in thisapproach a primary model is synthesized based on neural networks and then the model structure is optimized throughgenetic algorithm. the proposed approach is applied to a rural highway, ghazvin-rasht road in iran. the obtainedresults are acceptable and indicate that the proposed approach can i...

this study was conducted to determine regression equations for the prediction metabolizable energy value corrected for zero nitrogen retention (amen) in 12 wheat cultivars (mahdavi, chamran, sabalan, sepahan, sivand, alamoot, sholeh, neishaboor, pishtaz, bahar, shiraz and shahpasand) cultured in alborz province of iran. chromic oxide marker bioassay was used to determine wheat cultivars nitroge...

background and objectives: survival models are statistical technique to estimate or predict the overall time up to specific events. prediction is important in medical science and the accuracy of prediction is determined by a measurement, generally based on loss functions, called prediction error. the aim of this study is using parametric models to determine the factors influencing predicted sur...

Prediction of heart disease is very important because it is one of the causes of death around the world. Moreover, heart disease prediction in the early stage plays a main role in the treatment and recovery disease and reduces costs of diagnosis disease and side effects it. Machine learning algorithms are able to identify an effective pattern for diagnosis and treatment of the disease and ident...

The study of rotary steering drilling technology is currently one of the hot topics in the drilling engineering field. It requires accurate well trajectory control instructions when rotary steerable tools are applied to achieve the well trajectory control goal. A drilling trajectory prediction model will benefit this progress. According to the continuous beam theory, a mechanical model of push-...

Measuring scholarly impact has been a topic of much interest in recent years. While many use the citation count as a primary indicator of a publications impact, the quality and impact of those citations will vary. Additionally, it is often difficult to see where a paper sits among other papers in the same research area. Questions we wished to answer through this visualization were: is a publica...

the measurement of wheat crop yield in large areas is time consuming and requires high expenses. one way to save time and cost, using geostatistical methods for mapping crop yield. in this research principle component analysis were used for identifying variables that have correlation with each other, and kriging and cokriging were used to map crop yield prediction. fourty six samples were used ...

In the oil and gas industry, energy prediction can help the distributor and customer to forecast the outgoing and incoming gas through the pipeline. It will also help to eliminate any uncertainties in gas metering for billing purposes. The objective of this paper is to develop Neural Network Model for energy consumption and analyze the performance model. This paper provides a comprehensive revi...
