rivers and runoff have always been of interest to human beings. in order to make use of the proper water resources, human societies, industrial and agricultural centers, etc. have usually been established near rivers. as the time goes on, these societies developed, and therefore water resources were extracted more and more. consequently, conditions of water quality of the rivers experienced rap...

Introduction: Nowadays, assisted reproductive technologies are widely used to treat infertility in couples. Studies indicate that the rate of premature birth after using Assisted Reproductive Technologies has been increased as compared to normal pregnancies. The purpose of our study was predicting premature birth in pregnant women via Assisted Reproductive Technologies using artificial neural n...

The uniformity of yarn is one of the major quality parameters which significantly influences on yarn characteristics, warping, weaving, and ultimately fabric production. This parameter depends on fiber properties and spinning process directly. In this study, yarn non-uniformity in a worsted spinning system was predicted by using a hybrid technique involving Kohonen's self-organized and percep...

The lack of sediment gauging stations in the process of wind erosion, caused of estimate of sediment be process of necessary and important. Artificial neural networks can be used as an efficient and effective of tool to estimate and simulate sediments. In this paper two model multi-layer perceptron neural networks and radial neural network was used to estimate the amount of sediment in Korsya o...

Surface soil moisture is an important variable that plays a crucial role in the management of water and soil resources. Estimating this parameter is one of the important applications of remote sensing. One of the remote sensing techniques for precise estimation of this parameter is data-driven models. In this study, volumetric soil moisture content was estimated using data-driven models, suppor...

Background: Pregnancy in women with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is still introduced as a major challenge. Consulting before pregnancy in these patients is essential in order to estimating the risk of undesirable maternal and fetal outcomes by using appropriate information. The purpose of this study was to develop an artificial neural network for prediction of pregnancy outcomes including...
