The T-calculus is a typed functional extension of the tiled signal algebra previously defined for handling, with advanced synchronization feature, audio or musical finite signals. Primarily designed for programing interactive music systems, the T-calculus can also be seen as a multi-purpose programing language proposal that addresses the difficult problem of globally asynchronous and locally sy...

Research on stock price prediction and trading model using evolutionary computation has been done in recent years. As we know, prediction in the stock market is quite difficult for a number of reasons. First, the ultimate goal of our research is not to minimize the prediction error, but to maximize the profits. Second, the weak relationships among variables tend to be nonlinear, and they may ho...

In this work, we explore and study the implication of having more than one output on a Genetic Programming (GP) graph-representation. This approach, called, Multiple Interactive Outputs in a Single Tree (MIOST) is based on two ideas: (a) Firstly, we defined an approach, called Interactivity Within an Individual (IWI), which is based on a graph-GP representation. Secondly, we add to the individu...

Ganglionopathies (GNP), also known as sensory neuronopathies, are a group of conditions characterized by primary and selective damage to the dorsal root ganglia (DRG) of the spinal cord and sensory nuclei of the brainstem1,2. The etiologies are diverse and include immune-mediated diseases, vitamin deficiencies, drug toxicity, paraneoplastic syndromes and genetic causes, but many patients are ye...

This research proposes a new reliable network design methodology that is based on a pattern mining guided genetic algorithm (GA). The proposed method can be applied for a variety of applications including telecommunication, ad hoc, and power systems. In these networks, failures in certain parts of a network make it necessary for other parts to tolerate a higher traffic load in order to maintain...

forty monoconidial isolates of magnaporthe grisea were examined, for an identification of vegetative compatibility group and a characterization of genetic diversity, using rep-pcr genomic fingerprinting. the isolates were collected from weeds digitaria sanguinalis (crabgrass), setaria italica (foxtail millet), echinochloa crus-galli (barnyard millet), and some other unknown ones during 2003 - 2...

Intrusion Detection systems are increasingly a key part of system defence. Various approaches to Intrusion Detection are currently being used but false alarm rate is higher in those approaches. Network Intrusion Detection involves differentiating the attacks like DOS, U2L, R2L and Probe from the Normal user on the internet. Due to the variety of network behaviors and the rapid development of at...

Traditionally, the sensor network design procedure was based on positioning sensors so that certain network monitoring capabilities (e.g., observability, redundancy, and error detectability) of key variables are assured at minimum sensors cost. We present a new approach that is based on maximizing economic value of information minus cost instead of the traditional approach that requires the sat...
