Review ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsGlobal Status of Herbicide Resistance Development: Challenges and Management ApproachesMeisam Zargar, Han Eerens, Elena Pakina et al.Chemicals are widely recommended for the suppression of weed in crop land. This paper attempts to a greater integration of ideas into the development of herbicide resistance. This may lead researchers to focus less on simply defining herbicide resistance and more towards comprehensive investigations of the resistance development. Weed expert in collaboration with plant biologists can work in synergy to … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 2 · 5 May 2017 · 8,466 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsAnalysis of Rule Generation Techniques using Computational MethodG. Maragatham, M. LakshmiProblem statement: Enhanced decision making seeks a right of way mainly in business sectors for mining profitable patterns in databases. To address this problem, the authors have incorporated the temporal and utility concept of mining effective rules. Though the objective of generating profitable rule set is achieved. Still in effective decision making, Optimization of the rule set is required. Therefore … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 7 · 9 May 2012 · 6,627 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsA Solution Methodology of Bi-Level Linear Programming Based on Genetic AlgorithmM. S. Osman, W.F. Abd El-Wahed, Mervat M.K. El Shafei, Hanaa B. Abd El WahabProblem statement: We deal with the bi-level linear programming problem. A bi-level programming problem is formulated for a problem in which two Decision-Makers (DMs) make decisions successively. Approach: In this research we studied and designs a Genetic Algorithm (GA) of Bi-Level Linear Programming Problems (BLPP) by constructing the fitness function of the upper-level programming problems based on the definition of … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2009 · 7,187 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsProgressive Resistance Training on Elderly HIV+ Patients: Does it Work?Paula Maria Loiola De Souza, Wilson Jacob Filho, José Maria Santarém et al.Elderly people present significant alterations on body composition and physical fitness, compromising their quality of life. Chronic diseases, including HIV/AIDS, worsen this situation by increasing aging effects on body composition and muscle strength. Resistance exercises are prescribed by major health organizations for improving fitness and promoting a shift towards a healthier and more independent aging. In addition, recovering strength and … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2008 · 6,746 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsAn Evolution Strategy for the Induction of Fuzzy Finite-state AutomataMozhiwen, WanminThis study presents an evolution strategy used to infer fuzzy finite-state automata from examples of a fuzzy language. We describe the fitness function of an generated automata with respect to a set of examples of a fuzzy language, the representation of the transition of the automata as well as the output of the states in the evolution strategy and the … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2006 · 6,699 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsA Developed Uncapacitated Scheduling Algorithm of Building Timetables for Different Exam KindsHussein Al Bazar, Hussein Abdel-JaberScheduling many exams into different timeslots and rooms while meeting all given requirements is a difficult task, which requires designing and proposing a scheduling algorithm to deal with the issue of timetabling examination. This paper proposes a scheduling algorithm for tackling such an issue. The proposed scheduling algorithm generates a satisfactory timetable of different module exams derived from different faculties … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 16, Issue 8 · 22 Aug 2020 · 6,801 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsA New Cooperative Algorithm Based on PSO and K-Means for Data ClusteringMehdi Neshat, Shima Farshchian Yazdi, Daneyal Yazdani, Mehdi SargolzaeiProblem statement: Data clustering has been applied in multiple fields such as machine learning, data mining, wireless sensor networks and pattern recognition. One of the most famous clustering approaches is K-means which effectively has been used in many clustering problems, but this algorithm has some drawbacks such as local optimal convergence and sensitivity to initial points. Approach: Particle Swarm Optimization … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 19 Nov 2011 · 7,975 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsSolving the Periodic Maintenance Scheduling Problem via Genetic Algorithm to Balance Workforce Levels and Maintenance CostMohamed Ali Abdel-Fattah MansourProblem statement: In this article we address the multi-objective Periodic Maintenance Scheduling Problem (PMSP) of scheduling a set of cyclic maintenance operations for a given set of machines through a specified planning period to minimize the total variance of workforce levels measured in man-hours and maintenance costs with equal weights. Approach: The article proposed a mixed integer non-linear math programming … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 12 Jul 2011 · 8,322 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsA Particle Swarm Optimization Based Edge Preserving Impulse Noise FilterS. Mohamed Mansoor Roomi, P.L. Muthu Karuppi, P. Rajesh, B. Guru RevathiProblem statement: Image sensors and communication channels often introduce impulse noise in image transmission. The most common filters available to remove such noise are median filter and its variants but the major drawbacks identified with them are blurring of edge detail and low noise suppression. To preserve the sharp and useful information in the image, the filtering algorithms are required … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2010 · 7,477 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsSwarm-Based Feature Selection for Handwriting IdentificationSiti Zaiton Mohd Hashim, Khaled Mohammed Bin AbdlProblem statement: Handwriting identification is the study for identifying or verifying the writer of a given handwritten document. Since the handwriting features are the cornerstone in the writers' classification process, the classifier accuracy is sensitive in terms of how the writers are scored based on the used features. Approach: In this study, we introduced swarm intelligence as a features weighting … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2010 · 7,408 accessesView PDFCite
