Bike sharing systems (BSSs) offer a mobility service whereby public bikes, located at different stations across an urban area, are available for shared use. An important point is that the distribution of rides between stations is not uniformly distributed and certain stations fill up or empty over time. These empty and full stations lead to demand for bikes and return boxes that cannot be fulfi...

objective: prefabricated functional appliances have therapeutic effects similar to those of custom-made functional appliances. this study aimed to assess the dentoskeletal effects of multi p® prefabricated functional appliance on class ii div 1children in late mixed dentition. methods: this open label trial was conducted on 18 children aged 9-12 years with cl ii div 1 malocclusion due to mandib...

A three-level relief chain including a number of suppliers in fixed locations, candidate distribution centers and affected areas at certain points are considered. A mixed integer nonlinear programming model is proposed for open transportation location routing problem by considering split delivery of demand. To solve a realistic problem, foregoing parameters are considered as fuzzy in our propos...

In this paper, two compact quad-channel and six-channel diplexer are designed and fabricated using defected microstrip structure (DMS). This structure is designed for the desired frequency based on the literature reviews. The proposed configuration is composed of a conventional T-junction divider with two pairs of open bended stubs and dual/tri-band filters. In designing dual band filters, a lo...

Real-world recognition system often encounters the challenge of unseen labels. To identify such labels, multi-label zero-shot learning (ML-ZSL) focuses on transferring knowledge by a pre-trained textual label embedding (e.g., GloVe). However, methods only exploit single-modal from language model, while ignoring rich semantic information inherent in image-text pairs. Instead, recently developed ...
