Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordHybridization of Neural Learning Algorithms Using Evolutionary and Discrete Gradient ApproachesRanadhir Ghosh, John Yearwood, Moumita Ghosh, Adil BagirovIn this study we investigated a hybrid model based on the Discrete Gradient method and an evolutionary strategy for determining the weights in a feed forward artificial neural network. Also we discuss different variants for hybrid models using the Discrete Gradient method and an evolutionary strategy for determining the weights in a feed forward artificial neural network. The Discrete Gradient … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2005 · 6,587 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordImproving the Approaches to Planning the Electricity Consumption in Budget InstitutionsNailya Malikovna Yakupova, Rezeda Muhtarovna Kundakchyan, Roza Nuriahmetovna Andreeva, Aleksey Vladimirovich AndreevThe technique of predicting the budget organizations' electrical power demands, which is currently used in Tatarstan Republic, based on the averaged norms for all educational establishments, does not reflect the impact of certain external and internal factors of environment influencing the volume of energy consumption, which results in the inefficient expenditure of the budget. This problem is especially topical for … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 12 · 26 Nov 2015 · 6,378 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordAIR POLLUTION AND CLIMATE CHANGE IN LAGOS, NIGERIA: NEEDS FOR PROACTIVE APPROACHES TO RISK MANAGEMENT AND ADAPTATIONAkinola A. Komolafe, Suleiman Abdul-Azeez Adegboyega, Adeleye Y.B. Anifowose et al.The significance of air pollution as one of the contemporary issues and accelerating factors that propel climate change in both developed and developing countries cannot be overemphasized. The problem of air pollution has seemingly become intractable with the incessant failure of both global and local environmental policies purportedly emplaced to address its devastating trend, particularly in growing megacities of the … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 4 · 12 Jul 2014 · 10,232 accessesView PDF Cite
