a new cost function based on stochastic fuzzy discrimination information measure is introduced in this paper. focusing on their significant parts, this cost function is used to find the optimal value of threshold for denoising image. it is, in fact, an extension of fuzzy entropy cost function by the present author. multivariable normal distribution is used for creating focus on significant part...

objective: to investigate the correlation between lower and higher order sensory functions and manual dexterity as well as to identify the sensory measures that could predict manual dexterity in patients with idiopathic parkinson’s disease (pd). materials and methods: in this cross-sectional study, 55 patients with idiopathic pd by mean age of 59.85 ± 11.89 years, and mean hoehn and yahr stage ...

abstractthe liquid crystal director distribution is determined for a confined chiral nematic slab. the molecular director distribution of the field-controlled chiral nematic slab is directly calculated. the director profiles for the tilt and the twist angles, under different applied fields, are calculated in the slab with weak boundary conditions. then, the dependence of the threshold field on ...

In this paper, the single machine replacement problem is being modeled into the frameworks of stochastic dynamic programming and control threshold policy, where some properties of the optimal values of the control thresholds are derived. Using these properties and by minimizing a cost function, the optimal values of two control thresholds for the time between productions of two successive nonco...
