The necessity to establish novel solutions for decentralized monitoring is attracting attention in all fields of analytical chemistry, i.e., clinical, pharmaceutical, environmental, agri-food. research around the terms “point-of-need”, “point-of-care”, “lab-on-chip”, “biosensor”, “microfluidics”, etc. is/has been always aimed at possibility produce easy-to-use and fast-response devices be used ...

This work presents the results of radiation shielding calculations using modified point kernel code QAD-CGGP. The modification includes a new approach to neutron buildup factor estimations based on machine learning technique called Support vector regression (SVR). SVR models for common materials are developed and built into development consisted acquiring data be used model, optimizing paramete...

From the point of view of the feasibility of providing growth in road capacity parallel to the predicted growth in traffic as well in terms of impact on the environment and health, current trends in transportation are unsustainable. Transport problems are expected to worsen due to the fact that worldwide automobile ownership tripled between 1970 and 2000, and the movement of goods is projected ...

Engineering design is a kind of human activity that makes use of many different knowledge sources. Basically, this may be well-structured explicit, domain specific knowledge or tacit, implicit and experience-based knowledge. Both types of knowledge have their particular roles in design, and thus in knowledge-based design support systems. In this paper several issues concerning knowledge-based d...

Support vector machines are valuable for making classifications, but they lack the natural explanatory capability that many other classifiers possess. We suggest two methods for providing insight into support vector machine classifications. In the first, we report the support vectors most influential in the final classification for a particular test point. In the second, we determine which feat...

in this paper, we prove a common fixed point theorem for six mappings (two set valued and four single valued mappings) without assuming compatibility and continuity of any mapping on non complete metric spaces. to prove the theorem, we use a non compatible condition, that is, weak commutativity of type (kb). we show that completeness of the whole space is not necessary for the existence and uni...
