Software size is a significant input for software cost estimation, and the implementation of estimation dramatically affects results efficiency estimation. Traditionally, implemented by strictly trained experts more labor-intensive large projects, which relatively expensive inefficient. Function Point Analysis widely used method supported several international standards. We propose structured a...

Abstract This paper describes an experiment that attempts to compare a range of existing collocation extraction techniques as well as the implementation of a new technique based on tests for lexical substitutability. After a description of the experiment details, the techniques are discussed with particular emphasis on any adaptations that are required in order to evaluate it in the way propose...

Background:Extraction of drugs is one of the biggest concerns and the most important part of preparation and determination in forensic medicine. The lack of an easy, efficient and fast extraction method is the most important and most difficult problem despite the development of forensic centers and their being equipped with new diagnostic devices. In the present study, a comparison was conducte...

modified bubble column extraction with ultrasonic bath (bce-ub) method was used to extract atropine from the stem and leaves of atropa belladonna. optimum condition were obtained with kamada solvent which was chloroform-methanol-ammonia 15:15:1(v/v/v) as extraction solvent, the particle size of  less than  350 µm, an extraction time of 23.95 min, a liquor to material ratio of 15.08 ml/g and  an...

The extraction of intact RNA from oocyte is quite challenging and time-consuming. A standard protocol using commercial RNA extraction kit, yields a low quantity of RNA in oocytes. In the past, several attempts in getting RNA for gene expression study ended up with a few different modified methods. Extraction of high-quality RNA from oocyte is important before further downstream analyses such as...

a comparative study of ultrasound-assisted extraction (uae) and hydro-distillation was performed for fast extraction of estragole from tarragon (artemisia dracunculus l.) dried leaves. several influential parameters of the uae procedure in the extraction of estragole (type of solvent, extraction cycles, solvent to material ratio, irradiation time and particle size) were investigated and optimiz...

introduction: dna extraction methods are very important for genetics research and diagnostic tests. in these methods are also important for detecting genetic diseases or in cancers for investigating genetic changes during cancer progression or treatment. therefore, selection of the best method for dna extraction from different samples such as bone marrow (bm) or peripheral blood (pb) and their ...

we compare performance of adaptive schemes which are based on radial-basis functions and kalman filters for fast extraction of auditory evoked potentials. moreover, we propose a new method based on evoked potential modeling in the kalman filter framework, which can improve the accuracy compared to the existing methods. simulation results show that adaptive schemes and the kalman method are not ...
