abstract the climate change was known to force local hydrology, through changes in the pattern of precipitation, temperature and the other hydrological variables. in this research, the impact of global warming on maximum and minimum temperature, precipitation and evapotranspiration (wheat, corn, tomato and sugar beet) of kashafrood basin under two climate change scenarios (a2 and b2), and the o...

abstract development and evaluation of mitigation strategies are very crucial to manage climate change risk. research objectives of this study were (1) to quantify the response of maize grain yield to potential impacts of climate change and (2) to investigate the effectiveness of changing sowing date of maize as a mitigation option for khorasan province which is located in northeast of iran. tw...

In this paper we analyse the existing approaches to image retrieval and we propose a General Image Retrieval (GIR) model. The model establishes a taxonomy based on the systematisation on the existing approaches. In it the queries for image retrieval can be specified visually and interactively. The query mechanism is based on the calculation of similarities between the image query representation...

We propose a flexible regression model to study the association between a functional response and multiple functional covariates that are observed on the same domain. Specifically, we relate the mean of current response to current values of the covariates by sum of smooth unknown bi-variate functions, where each of the functions depends on the current value of the covariate and the time point i...

General Gaming is a field of research on systems that can manage various game descriptions and play them effectively. These systems, unlike specialized ones, must deal with various kinds of games and cannot rely on any kind of game algorithms designed upstream, such as DEEPER BLUE ones. This field is currently mainly restricted to complete-information board games. Given the lack of more various...

The general linear model (glm) provides a general framework for a large set of models whose common goal is to explain or predict a quantitative dependent variable by a set of independent variables which can be categorical of quantitative. The glm encompasses techniques such as Student’s t test, simple and multiple linear regression, analysis of variance, and covariance analysis. The glm is adeq...

The general consideration in Spatial General Epidemic Model is controlling the propagation of the disease starting from an infected individual. By a suitable control process, this epidemic can be rooted out. Here, we suggest the control process using the percolation probability to be attached with the formation of edges having the suitable probabilities, giving the random graphs which will expl...
