For crop production it is desirable for the mapping between genotype and phenotype to be consistent, such that an optimized genotype produces uniform sets of individual plants. Uniformity is strongly selected in breeding programs, usually automatically, as harvest equipment eliminates severely non-uniform individuals. Uniformity is genetically controlled, is known to be increased by interplant ...

In cite{Kats84}, Katsaras introduced a method for constructing a Hu-tton $[0,1]$-quasi-uniformity from a crisp uniformity. In this paper we present other different methods for making this based mainly in the concept of a fuzzy uniform structure. Furthermore, we prove that some of these methods preserve the completeness property of the quasi-uniformity.  Moreover, we also show that Katsaras' con...

In the first part, we introduce randomized algorithms as a new notion of efficient algorithms for decision problems. We classify randomized algorithms according to their error probabilities, and define appropriate complexity classes. (RP, coRP, ZPP, BPP, PP). We discuss which classes are realistic proposals for design of probabilistic algorithms. We cover the implementation of randomized algori...

1. Uniformity and correlation 1 1.

Introduction. The purpose of this report is to draw attention to some nontrivial connections between the ("continuous") theory of irregularities of distribution and discrete mathematics. The object of the theory of irregularities of distribution is to measure the uniformity (or nonuniformity) of sequences and point sets. For instance: how uniformly can an arbitrary set of N points in the unit c...

The accurate production of a rainfall environment similar to natural rainfall by a rainfall simulator (RS) is a crucial and challenging task in rainfall instrument testing or calibration. Although the spatial uniformity of rainfall accumulation is a key parameter of an RS, the spatial uniformity comparison between simulated rainfall and natural rainfall, and the spatial uniformity improvements ...

system evaluations were performed on 48 center pivots in different parts of saudi arabia. these systems, located on different farms in four different regions of the country, namely: riyadh, jouf, qassim and eastern regions, were evaluated to study the effect of lateral configuration on water application uniformity as regards the original vs. modified laterals. lateral configuration modification...
