estimation of the conceptual costs in construction projects can be regarded as an important issue in feasibility studies. this estimation has a major impact on the success of construction projects. indeed, this estimation supports the required information that can be employed in cost management and budgeting of these projects. the purpose of this paper is to introduce an intelligent model to im...

to prospect mineral deposits at regional scale, recognition and classification of hydrothermal alteration zones using remote sensing data is a popular strategy. due to the large number of spectral bands, classification of the hyperspectral data may be negatively affected by the hughes phenomenon. a practical way to handle the hughes problem is preparing a lot of training samples until the size ...

Considering the importance of validation of customers in the cross-dock and since this is one of the problems of implementing cross-dock system in Iran, this study attempted to extract customer validation criteria. The purpose of the research is to eliminate the distrust of distributors in receiving the funds of the sent items and the statistical sample of this research is the experts of the sy...

since the change of land use accrued in the iran, especially in northern iran, this research aims tocompare the spatial variability of soil properties in three adjacent land uses including cultivated by wheat lands, grazing lands and forest lands covered by juniperus sp,  fagus orientalis, quercus castanifolia, and acer velotinum species in kiasar region, mazandaran province, northern iran. som...

an alumina supported co/ni catalyst was prepared by sol-gel procedure to study the catalytic behavior during fischer-tropsch synthesis in a fixed-bed reactor. the effect of co conversion (10-50%) on hydrocarbon product distribution (ch4, c5+ and c2-c4 olefin selectivities) was studied. selectivity for ch4 decreased, while those of c5+ and olefin selectivities increased with increasing co conver...

speech emotion recognition (ser) is a new and challenging research area with a wide range of applications in man-machine interactions. the aim of a ser system is to recognize human emotion by analyzing the acoustics of speech sound. in this study, we propose spectral pattern features (sps) and harmonic energy features (hes) for emotion recognition. these features extracted from the spectrogram ...

Reliable estimation of the porous membranes neck-pore size distribution (NPSD) is the key element in the design and operation of all membrane separation processes. In this paper, a new approach is presented for reliable of NPSD of porous membranes using wet flow-state bubble point test data. For this purpose, a robust method based on the linear regularization theory is developed to extract NPSD...
