An adaptive version of growing and pruning RBF neural network has been used to predict the system output and implement Linear Model-Based Predictive Controller (LMPC) and Non-linear Model-based Predictive Controller (NMPC) strategies. A radial-basis neural network with growing and pruning capabilities is introduced to carry out on-line model identification.An Unscented Kal...

two experiments were conducted to determine threonine (thr) requirements of two commercial strains, ross 308 and cobb 500, based on standardized ileal digestibility from 15 to 28d of age. basal diet consisted of wheat, triticale, and corn gluten meal was formulated according to quick chick (2006) to be adequate in all nutrients except for thr. incremental levels of supplemental thr were added t...

Developing measure performance, especially in civil activities, is mainly based on economic or social approaches, regardless of its environmental effects. This matter has caused imbalances of human life and hazardous future for him. Modern human’s awareness of the imbalances in normal performance of the nature cycle, caused by technology, has led him to create some ideas such as sustainability ...

In this paper, we prove that every metric line in the Poincare ball model of hyperbolic geometry is exactly a classical line of itself. We also proved nonexistence of periodic lines in the Poincare ball model of hyperbolic geometry.

The RMG industries play a major role in the economic development of Bangladesh. However, current business environment, like every other country all over world, this sector also faces some troubles related to resource constraints time, cost, materials, etc. So, ensure sustainability and competitiveness Bangladesh, productivity improvement becomes key factor. For reason, research aims measure imp...

In this paper I examine some of the factors influencing technology development and attempt to explain whether CLIA '88 enhances the opportunities or exacerbates the problems for U.S.-based technology development. The viewpoint I express is concentrated on the clinical chemistry segment of the diagnostics arena.

influence of maternal and sire-generation interaction effects on day-old chick' weight was investigated in two commercial broiler sire and dam lines, and in mazandaran native fowls. the data were analysed through restricted maximum likelihood (reml) procedures, using asreml software. ten different animal models were implemented and compared with likelihood ratio test. all models consisted ...

DESIGN Cost-effectiveness analysis using a decision tree model to compare programme to non-programme intensive care units. SETTING USA. POPULATION Adult patients in the intensive care unit. COSTS Economic c...

ovarian cancer is the most lethal gynecological cancer in which cisplatin-based treatment plays fundamental role as the first line chemotherapy option. however, development of platinum-resistance is a critical and poorly understood problem in ovarian cancer treatment. although in vitro generation of platinum-resistant ovarian cancer cell lines is a long established approach to uncover the molec...
