Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA New Approach in Individual Tree Counting of Nyatoh (Palaquium spp.) Using an Airborne SpectroradiometerKamaruzaman JusoffProblem statement: In Malaysia inadequate data are available to make decisions regarding the sustainable management of Nyatoh (Palaquium spp.). Factual data and estimation of Nyatoh in the lowland dipterocarp forest resources are still lacking or, if available, are not complete, reliable or up to date. The collection and compilation of information and updating of existing data in near real time … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2010 · 7,960 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSwarm Negative Selection Algorithm for Electroencephalogram Signals ClassificationNasser Omer Sahel Ba-Karait, Siti Mariyam Shamsuddin, Rubita SudirmanProblem statement: The process of epilepsy diagnosis from EEG signals by a human scorer is a very time consuming and costly task considering the large number of epileptic patients admitted to the hospitals and the large amount of data needs to be scored. Therefore, there is a strong need to automate this process. Such automated systems must rely on robust … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 5, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2009 · 7,209 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLot-Sizing Decisions under Trade Credit Depending on the Ordering Quantity in Fuzzy Annual DemandChui-Yu Chiu, Zhi-Ping Lin, Yi LinProblem statement: In reality, there are of various products such as liquids, volatile, medicines and materials, in which the rate of deterioration is very large. However, little attention has been mentioned what the effects of deterioration occur in most inventory systems. Also, the loss of the deterioration should not be neglected as an important issue. Approach: In this study, we … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2009 · 6,767 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractForecasting Gold Prices Using Multiple Linear Regression MethodZ. Ismail, A. Yahya, A. ShabriProblem statement: Forecasting is a function in management to assist decision making. It is also described as the process of estimation in unknown future situations. In a more general term it is commonly known as prediction which refers to estimation of time series or longitudinal type data. Gold is a precious yellow commodity once used as money.

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractVoltage Collapse Risk Associated to Under-Voltage Capacitive Compensation in Electric Power System OperationHeraldo Silveira Barbuy, Alexandre Rocco, Luiz Augusto Pereira Fernandes, Geraldo Caixeta GuimarãesProblem statement: In the operation of an Electric Power System (EPS), it has been usual to provide reactive power injection to avoid an under-voltage bus condition. In some situations an adequate voltage profile will not be a guarantee against Voltage Collapses (VCs) that may cause blackouts as seen in many occurrences around the world. The repeatedly injection of reactive power … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2009 · 7,258 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Novel Method for Optimal Location and Expansion of Subtransmission Substations Considering Existing Medium-Voltage Distribution FeedersM. Farrokhifar, M. Bana Sharifian, R. EsmaeilzadehThis research presents an accurate comprehensive cost function for the problem of optimal location of subtransmission substations. Technical constraints and economical parameters are investigated in the modeling. Genetic algorithm is used to optimize the cost function. Coding of decision variables is done in a way that finding the correct solutions is achieved faster.

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImportance of blood gas measurements in perinatal asphyxia and alternatives to restore the acid base balance status to improve the newborn performanceH. Orozco-Gregorio, D. Mota-Rojas, M. Alonso-Spilsbury et al.Prolonged or intermittent asphyxia in utero and during farrowing weakens piglets and renders them less capable of adaptation to extrauterine life. Piglets with lesser viability at birth have increased blood pCO2 and blood lactic acid concentrations and decreased blood pH. Moreover, the ability to thermoregulate during an acute cold stress is inversely related to umbilical blood lactate concentrations. Blood gas … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2007 · 7,636 accessesView PDFCite
