in recent years, due to absence of integrated watershed management in most regions, natural resources have witnessed numerous damages with severe floods as one of its consequences which further leads to economic, social and environmental damages. presently, there is no optimal utilization of land in most watersheds hence no optimal model matching with facilities and objectives is used in the wa...

in this paper, landscape allocation using genetic algorithm (laga), a spatial multi-objective land use optimization software is introduced. the software helps in searching for optimal land use when multiple objectives such as suitability, area, cohesion and edge density indices are simultaneously involved. laga is a flexible and easy to use genetic algorithm-based software for optimizing the sp...

land-use planning is a science that determines the type optimum of land-use through studying the ecological characteristics of the land as well as its socio-economic structure. the primary objective of this study is to evaluate the land-use and natural resources for future sustainable land planning using gis. in this study, the makhdoom’s systematic method was used to analyze the ecological and...

abstract- agricultural extension agents should provide dry land producers with appropriate education to make them more interested in learning about water use optimization. therefore, it is recommended to accompany education with art. in this regard, a study, using the randomized experimental research design, was carried out among dry land grape producers in herayjan village, southwest iran, usi...

In this paper, we propose a novel method for efficiently calculating the eigenvectors of uniformly rotated images of a set of templates. As we show, the images can be optimally approximated by a linear series of eigenvectors which can be calculated without actually decomposing the sample covariance matrix.

in this study, under the constraint of resource-saving and environment-friendliness objective, based on multi-agent genetic algorithm, multi-objective spatial optimization (moso) model for land use allocation was developed from the view of simulating the biological autonomous adaptability to environment and the competitive-cooperative relationship. the model was applied to solve the practical m...

In this paper, a guideline is provided for design and optimization of the shape of active transport molecular communication channels. In particular rectangular channels are considered and it is shown that for channels employing a single microtubule as the carrier of the information particles, the smaller the perimeter of the channel, the higher the channel capacity. Furthermore, it is shown tha...
