abstract long-term historical weather data are needed to conduct crop simulation analysis. simulated climatic data may be used when long series of historic data are not available or convenient or when future data are needed. the aim of this study was to generate daily weather values for maximum and minimum air temperatures. a number of weather generators are compared here. data from ten station...

ABSTRACT Background: for treatment verification in radiation therapy. Several physical characteristics of ScanningLiquid filled Ionization Chamber EPID (SLIC-EPID) including: extra build-up layer,reproducibility and uniformity, and noise level were investigated.Electronic Portal Imaging Devices (EPIDs) have found an outstanding positionMaterials and Methods: equilibrium, 1-30 mm white water mat...

We study the entropy rate of a hidden Markov process, defined by observing the output of a symmetric channel whose input is a first order Markov process. Although this definition is very simple, obtaining the exact amount of entropy rate in calculation is an open problem. We introduce some probability matrices based on Markov chain's and channel's parameters. Then, we try to obtain an estimate ...
