This paper proposes a new forecasting model for investigating relationship between the price of crude oil, as an important energy source and GDP of the US, as the largest oil consumer, and the UK, as the oil producer. GMDH neural network and MLFF neural network approaches, which are both non-linear models, are employed to forecast GDP responses to the oil price changes. The resul...

In wide area measurement systems, PMUs are the main component measuring real time synchronized data from different buses. Installation of PMUs at all buses is a primary way to provide full observability of the power network. However, it is not practical in real networks due to the relatively expensive cost of PMUs and other technical limitations. Optimal PMU Placement (OPP) is an optimization p...

In the linear system Ax = b the points x are sometimes constrained to lie in a given subspace S of column space of A. Drazin inverse for any singular or nonsingular matrix, exist and is unique. In this paper, the singular consistent or inconsistent constrained linear systems are introduced and the effect of Drazin inverse in solving such systems is investigated. Constrained linear system arise ...

A comparative workflow, including linear and non-linear QSAR models, was carried out to evaluate the predictive accuracy of models and predict the inhibition activity of a series of aryl-substituted isobenzofuran-1(3H)-ones. The data set consisted of 34 compounds was classified into the training and test sets, randomly. Molecular descriptors were selected using the genetic algorithm (GA) as a f...

the jamor purpose of the present research is to predict the total stock market index of tehran stock exchange, using a combined method of wavelet transforms, fuzzy genetics, and neural network in order to predict the active participations of finance market as well as macro decision makers.to do so, first the prediction was made by neural network, then a series of price index was decomposed by w...

In this paper, a neural network model reference adaptive system speed observer is designed, which can be used in speed control of linear induction motors (LIMs). Dynamical equations of LIM have been considered accurate. In other words, the end effect and the electrical losses of the motor have been included in the motor equivalent circuit. Then equations of the reference model and adaptive mode...

This paper designs a reliability distribution network with limited capacity under partial and complete facility disruptions. To increase the reliability of the distribution network, a new mixed integer linear programing model is developed by considering multiple mitigation strategies including diversification, fortification, and transshipment. The distribution network constitutes of reliable di...
