Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHybrid Hot Strip Rolling Force Prediction using a Bayesian Trained Artificial Neural Network and Analytical ModelsAbdelkrim Moussaoui, Yacine Selaimia, Hadj A. AbbassiThe authors discuss the combination of an Artificial Neural Network (ANN) with analytical models to improve the performance of the prediction model of finishing rolling force in hot strip rolling mill process. The suggested model was implemented using Bayesian Evidence based training algorithm. It was found that the Bayesian Evidence based approach provided a superior and smoother fit to the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2006 · 7,135 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractKinetics of Chromium Sorption on Biomass Fungi from Aqueous SolutionLouhab Krim, Sahmoune Nacer, Goma BilangoThe kinetics of chromium ions sorption from aqueous solution on fungi biomass have been investigated in a batch system. The experimental data were analysed based on an intraparticle diffusion equation and a pseudo-second-order mechanism, in order to predict the constant rate of sorption and the equilibrium capacity with the effect of initial chromium ions concentration, temperature and initial solution pH. … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2006 · 7,418 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAgricultural Waste Management Extension Education (AWMEE) The Ultimate Need for Intellectual ProductivityIraj Malek MohammadiExtension education is significant range of fields like Agriculture, Natural Resources, Environmental and Bio Diversity Conservation, Rural Development, Home Management Skill Development, Disaster Management, Waste Management, Value Adding Management. Among them, waste management extension is highly significant because of the millions of tons of annual waste in vegetal, animal, environmental and natural resources products as well as millions of hectors … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2006 · 7,402 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA New Look to Adaptive Temporal Radial Basis Function Applied in Speech RecognitionMesbahi Larbi, Benyettou AbdelkaderThis study presents new contribution towards the Adaptive Temporal Radial Basis Function (ATRBF) applied to Continuous speech recognition, in particular the recognition of phonemes like Timit Corpus. ATRBF combines features from Time Delay Neural Network (TDNN) and the advantages of Radial Basis Function (RBF). The capacity to detect the acoustic features and their independent temporal report of the temporal localisation … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Dec 2005 · 7,684 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIn vitro Effects of Beet Root Juice on Stimulated and Unstimulated Peripheral Blood Mononuclear CellsChristiana Winkler, Barbara Wirleitner, Katharina Schroecksnadel et al.Intake of fruits and vegetables rich in antioxidants is suggested to reduce the incidence of cancer and coronary heart disease in humans. Exceptional antioxidant activity of beet root extracts has been reported. Likewise in animal models, e.g., extracts of red beetroot Beta vulgaris var. rubra revealed significant tumor inhibitory effects. Red beetroot concentrate is universally permitted as a food ingredient. … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2005 · 9,522 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractApplication of Harmony Search to Vehicle RoutingZong Woo Geem, Kang Seok Lee, Yongjin ParkA phenomenon-inspired meta-heuristic algorithm, harmony search, imitating music improvisation process, is introduced and applied to vehicle routing problem, then compared with one of the popular evolutionary algorithms, genetic algorithm. The harmony search algorithm conceptualized a group of musicians together trying to search for better state of harmony. This algorithm was applied to a test traffic network composed of one bus … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2005 · 12,460 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPattern Classification: An Improvement Using Combination of VQ and PCA Based TechniquesAlok Sharma, Kuldip K. Paliwal, Godfrey C. OnwuboluThis study firstly presents a survey on basic classifiers namely Minimum Distance Classifier (MDC), Vector Quantization (VQ), Principal Component Analysis (PCA), Nearest Neighbor (NN) and K-Nearest Neighbor (KNN). Then Vector Quantized Principal Component Analysis (VQPCA) which is generally used for representation purposes is considered for performing classification tasks. Some classifiers achieve high classification accuracy but their data storage requirement and … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2005 · 6,498 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Variable Neighborhood Search Algorithm for Assigning Cells to Switches in Wireless NetworksMatthieu Andr, Gilles Pesant, Samuel PierreThe problem of assigning cells to switches in wireless networks consists of minimizing the total operating cost, that is, the cost of linking cells to switches and the cost of handover from one cell to another, by taking into account factors such as network topology, switch capacity and traffic load in the entire network. Such a problem is well known … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2005 · 6,748 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBotulinum Toxin as a Novel Addition to Anti-Arthritis ArmamentariumHamid Namazi, Zahra MajdOsteoarthritis is the most common joint disease and is among the most frequent health problems for middle aged and older people. There is strong evidence that proinflammatory cytokines contribute to cartilage degradation in osteoarthritis. Interleukin-1 is the prototypical proinflammatory cytokine implicated in the pathogenesis of cartilage matrix degeneration. Results from studies in animal models provide stronger evidence implicating a role … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2005 · 6,775 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRemoval of Mercury from chlor-alkali Industry Wastewater using Acetobacter xylinum CelluloseA. Rezaee, J. Derayat, S. B. Mortazavi et al.In this study, the removal of mercury ions by cellulose of Acetobacter xylinum was investigated in the synthetic and chlor-alkali wastewater. Biofilms of Acetobacter xylinum were grown in laboratory column bioreactors. The biofilms were continuously treated with sterile synthetic model wastewater or nonsterile, neutralized chloralkali wastewater.The extent of adsorption was studied as function of pH, adsorbent dose and contact time. … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2005 · 8,283 accessesView PDFCite
