Support vector machine (SVM) is a popular classification technique which classifies data using a max-margin separator hyperplane. The normal vector and bias of the mentioned hyperplane is determined by solving a quadratic model implies that SVM training confronts by an optimization problem. Among of the extensions of SVM, cost-sensitive scheme refers to a model with multiple costs which conside...

background and objectives: survival models are statistical technique to estimate or predict the overall time up to specific events. prediction is important in medical science and the accuracy of prediction is determined by a measurement, generally based on loss functions, called prediction error. the aim of this study is using parametric models to determine the factors influencing predicted sur...

This paper introduces an analytical method for approximating the performability of a firm realtime system modeled by a multi-server queue. The service discipline in the queue is earliestdeadline- first (EDF), which is an optimal scheduling algorithm. Real-time jobs with exponentially distributed relative deadlines arrive according to a Poisson process. All jobs have deadlines until the end of s...

In this article, perfectly matched layer (PML) for the boundary treatment and an efficient compact two dimensional finite-difference frequency-domain (2-D FDFD) method were combined to model photonic crystal fibers (PCF). For photonic crystal fibers, if we assume that the propagation constant along the propagation direction is fixed, three-dimensional hybrid guided modes can be calculated by us...

Flood phenomenon is one of the catastrophic natural disasters which usually cause injuries and economic losses more than any weather phenomenon. Therefore evaluating flood economic losses is extremely important and it should be consider in socioeconomic development, spatial planning policies and flood control plans. Contrary to importance of this issue, available evaluating methods of flood eco...

carcass yield is important economical parameters for producers and contributors of meat science. in the present study, carcass yield and also the weight losses resulted post mortem until consumption were investigated. the mean values of cold carcass and hot carcass weight were 15.63 and 15.33, the mean value of cooling loss was 1.87% and average value of hot and cold efficiency were 41.44% and ...
