Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Importance of Police Performance as a Determinant of Satisfaction with PoliceJames E. Larsen, John P. BlairProblem statement: Citizen satisfaction with police performance is an important concern of public managers because police performance is central to citizens and accounts for a large share of urban budgets. Also, there is substantial disagreement in the literature regarding determents of citizen satisfaction. Approach: Logistic regression was used to investigate the results of three public opinion surveys, conducted biannually, to … …American Journal of Economics and Business Administration, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2009 · 8,714 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEmbedding Malaysian House Red Ant Behavior into an Ant Colony SystemZ. A. Othman, H. M. Rais, A. R. HamdanProblem statement: Ant Colony System (ACS) is the most popular algorithm used to find a shortest path solution in Traveling Salesman Problem (TSP). Several ACS versions have been proposed which aim to achieve an optimum solution by adjusting pheromone levels. However, it still has a room on an improvement. This research aims to improve the algorithm by embedding individual Malaysian … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 4, Issue 11 · 30 Nov 2008 · 6,961 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImplementation of Species-Transport Model in Numerical Simulation to Predict the Performance of Downdraft Gasifier with Biomass BlendsMurugan P. C., G. Arun Prasad, S. Joseph SekharThe demand for energy from biomass gasification is increasing due to the depletion of fossil fuels and serious environmental issues. Due to this, usage of individual biomass in a gasifier is not sufficient to meet the demand in rural areas. However, an enormous study have been reported on the gasifier with single biomass as working fuel. In addition, only a … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 11 Sep 2019 · 7,639 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractParameter Optimization of Gradient Tree Boosting Using Dragonfly Algorithm in Crime Forecasting and AnalysisAlif Ridzuan Khairuddin, Nor Azizah Ali, Razana Alwee et al.Crime forecasting and analysis are very important in predicting future crime patterns and beneficial to the authorities in planning effective crime prevention measures. One of the challenges found in crime analysis is the crime data itself as its form, representation and distribution are varied and unpredictable. To handle such data, most researchers have been focusing on applying various Artificial Intelligence … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 15, Issue 8 · 7 Aug 2019 · 7,918 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNitrogen Narcosis in Hyperbaric Chamber NursesDenise F. Blake, Derelle A. Young, Lawrence H. BrownHyperbaric nursing has become a specialty requiring high skill and knowledge. Nitrogen narcosis is a perceived risk for all inside hyperbaric chamber nurses. The actual degree of impairment at pressure has not been quantified. Twenty eight subjects participated in the study. Sixteen hyperbaric nurse candidates and five experienced hyperbaric nurses completed Trail Making Test A (TMTA) pre and post compression … …International Journal of Research in Nursing, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 19 Jan 2015 · 7,952 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEFFECTS OF SUPPLEMENTAL LYSINE ON PERFORMANCE, ANTIBODY TITER AND RECTAL TEMPERATURE IN RESPONSE TO A MODIFIED-LIVE VIRAL VACCINE IN NEONATAL CALVESKate Sharon, Glenn Duff, Jeff Dailey et al.Infectious Bovine Rhinotracheitis (IBR), caused by bovine herpesvirus-1, contributes significantly to economic losses in the dairy and beef cattle industry. Lysine has been shown reduce virulence of herpesviruses in felids and humans. Our objective was to evaluate the effects of supplemental lysine on serum IBR antibody titer and rectal temperature in response to a modified-live Intranasal (IN) or Intramuscular (IM) … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 2 Jun 2014 · 7,606 accessesView PDFCite

Results: It was distributed to the individual’s sample which are (15) hospitals, (SPSS) software program was used in … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 25 Jan 2012 · 8,536 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFeature Subset Selection for Hot Method Prediction using Genetic Algorithm wrapped with Support Vector MachinesSandra Johnson, Valli ShanmugamProblem statement: All compilers have simple profiling-based heuristics to identify and predict program hot methods and also to make optimization decisions. The major challenge in the profile-based optimization is addressing the problem of overhead. The aim of this work is to perform feature subset selection using Genetic Algorithms (GA) to improve and refine the machine learnt static hot method predictive … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 5 · 7 May 2011 · 7,234 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Hybrid of Fuzzy and Proportional-Integral-Derivative Controller for Electro-Hydraulic Position Servo SystemPornjit Pratumsuwan, Siripun Thongchai, Surapun TansriwongProblem statement: While classical PID controllers are sensitive to variations in the system parameters, Fuzzy controllers do not need precise information about the system variables in order to be effective. However, PID controllers are better able to control and minimize the steady state error of the system. To enhance the controller performance, hybridization of these two controller structures comes to … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 31 Oct 2010 · 10,516 accessesView PDFCite
