The fifteenth Text REtrieval Conference, TREC 2006, was held at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) 14 to 17 November 2006. The conference was co-sponsored by NIST and the Disruptive Technology Office (DTO). TREC 2006 had 107 participating groups from 17 different countries. Table 2 at the end of the paper lists the participating groups. TREC 2006 is the latest in a series...

in this paper, we propose a new residual analysis method using fourier series transform into fuzzy time series model for improving the forecasting performance. this hybrid model takes advantage of the high predictable power of fuzzy time series model and fourier series transform to fit the estimated residuals into frequency spectra, select the low-frequency terms, filter out high-frequency term...

this study is a step toward identifying spatial and temporal patterns of precipitation on the territory of iraq. the purpose of this analysis, the data related to the network database aphrodite a 57 -year period (2007-1951), was used. the data matrix consists of three cell location, the original data (rainfall) and the calendar matrix .surfer was drawn up. also analyzed for the first time and t...

A series of 5alpha-androst-3-enes and 3alpha,4alpha-epoxy-5alpha-androstanes were synthesized and tested for their abilities to inhibit aromatase in human placental microsomes. In these series the original C-17 carbonyl group was replaced by hydroxyl, acetyl and hydroxyimine groups. Inhibition kinetic analysis on the most potent steroid of these series revealed that it inhibits the enzyme in a ...
