in this study, an optimization model is proposed to design a global supply chain (gsc) for a medical device manufacturer under disruption in the presence of pre-existing competitors and price inelasticity of demand. therefore, static competition between the distributors’ facilities to more efficiently gain a further share in market of economic cooperation organization trade agreement (ecota) is...

Although traditional signal-based structural health monitoring algorithms have been successfully employed for small structures, their application for large and complex bridges has been challenging due to non-stationary signal characteristics with a high level of noise. In this paper, a promising damage detection algorithm is proposed by incorporation of adaptive signal processing and Artificial...

reducing the number of colors in an image while preserving its quality, is of importance in many applications such as image analysis and compression. it also decreases memory and transmission bandwidth requirements. moreover, classification of image colors is applicable in image segmentation and object detection and separation, as well as producing pseudo-color images. in this paper, the kohene...

In recent years, active filters have been considered and developed for elimation of harmonics in power networks. Comparing with passive, they are smaller and have better compensating characteristics and resistance to line distortions. In this paper, a novel idea based on adaptive filter theory in presented to develop an active filter to eliminate the distortions of an arbitrary signal. Using th...

the uv-spectrophotometric method of analysis was proposed for simultaneous determination of fluoxetine (flx) and sertraline (srt). considering the strong spectral overlap between uv-vis spectra of these compounds, a previous separation should be carried out in order to determine them by conventional spectrophotometric techniques. here, full-spectrum multivariate calibrations adaptive neuro-fuzz...
