Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDesign of Tree Structure in Context Clustering Process of Hidden Markov Model-Based Thai Speech SynthesisSuphattharachai ChomphanProblem statement: In HMM-based Thai speech synthesis, the tone degradation due to the imbalance of training data of all tones. Some distortion of syllable duration is obviously noticeable when the system is trained with a small amount of data. These problems cause the decrement in naturalness and intelligibility of the synthesized speech. Approach: This study proposes an approach to improve … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 14 Jan 2012 · 6,961 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Emerging Consumer Culture in Bangladesh: Everyday Life and Festivals in Rural AreasMd. Motaher HossainProblem statement: Bangladesh, often better known to the outside world as a country of natural calamities, is a poor and low-income country. Bangladesh’s main challenge is to reduce poverty through increasing equitable income. Although Bangladesh has faced many problems since its independence in 1971, its gross domestic product has been growing steadily and the country has achieved much success in … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2010 · 9,213 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStochastic Optimization for Portfolio Selection Problem with Mean Absolute Negative Deviation MeasureAnton Abdulbasah Kamil, Adli Mustafa, Khlipah IbrahimProblem statement: The most important character within optimization problem is the uncertainty of the future returns. Approach: To handle such problems, we utilized probabilistic methods alongside with optimization techniques. We developed single stage and two stage stochastic programming with recourse. The models were developed for risk adverse investors and the objective of the stochastic programming models is to minimize the … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2009 · 6,950 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSimulated Annealing with Deterministic DecisionsTaisir EldosProblem statement: Simulated Annealing (SA) algorithms have been used in solving a wide range of discrete optimization problems for many years, with well know drawbacks like the computational time and difficulties related to the parameters settings. One of the other issues that open the door for research is the acceptance decision that provides for hill climbing; the standard SA algorithms … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 5, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2009 · 7,126 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Typical Case Study: Solid Waste Management in Petroleum RefineriesJadea S. Alshammari, Fatma K. Gad, Ahmed A.M. Elgibaly, Abdul Rehman KhanThe current environmental concerns have forced developed and developing countries to reduce air, water and land pollution for sustainable growth. Solid refinery waste is cocktail of hydrocarbons, water, heavy metal and fine solids and is substantial in quantity. The principal processes of waste management focus mainly on waste source reduction, reusing, recycling, composting, incineration with or without energy recovery, fuel … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Aug 2008 · 9,773 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGeneralized Shortest Path Problem in Uncertain Environment Based on PSOHayder A. Mukhef, Ekhlas M. Farhan, Mohammed R. JassimGeneralized network problems describe situations in which flow can be generated or consumed through arcs. This research considers generalized shortest path problem in stochastic environment in which the changing rate of flow is random. To satisfy the demands of decision makers, three types of models have been formulated to solve the generalized shortest path problem under different decision criteria. The … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2008 · 6,756 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBDD Path Length Minimization Based on Initial Variable OrderingP. W.C. Prasad, M. Raseen, A. Assi, S. M.N.A. SenanayakeA large variety of problems in digital system design, combinational optimization and verification can be formulated in terms of operations performed on Boolean functions. The time complexity of Binary Decision Diagram (BDD) representing a Boolean function is directly related to the path length of that BDD. In this paper we present a method to generate a BDD with minimum path … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2005 · 6,506 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOOST: An Object Oriented Tool for Satellite Orbit DesignA. A. Salem, M. Zaki, A. A. WahdanIn this study the problems of satellite orbit design and simulation are tackled and an object oriented satellite tool OOST is developed. The tool with its three main modules enables the user to plan and design different satellite missions. It performs all orbital calculations needed, simulates the target orbit and performs analysis on the current active satellite(s). The simulation module … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2005 · 7,213 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComparative Performance of Supervised Learning Algorithms for Flood Prediction in Kemaman, TerengganuNur Najihah Shaaban, Norlida Hassan, Aida Mustapha, Salama A. MostafaFlood is one of the most destructive phenomena all over the world. Because the flooding uncertainties and the urgency to prepare for disaster management, three specific technique approaches are compared in this study to predict the flood occurrence based on historical rainfall data. The study involved the rainfall data in Kemaman, Terengganu between 2017 and 2018 extracted from the official … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 17, Issue 5 · 7 May 2021 · 6,892 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Impact of Air Pollution on Human Health: Focusing on the Rudnyi Altay Industrial AreaVitaliy G. Salnikov, Marat A. KaratayevProblem statement: Air pollution in Kazakhstan is significant environmental problem. The air pollution level of cities and industrial centers remains rather high. The highest level of air pollution is registered in Ridder, Ust-Kamenogorsk, Almaty, Zyryanovsk, Aktau, Atyrau, Shymkent, Taraz, Petropavlovsk and Temirtau. The enterprises of the Rudnyi Altay, Pavlodar Oblast and enterprises of oil and gas complex in West-Kazakhstan, Atyrau … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 21 Jul 2011 · 10,451 accessesView PDFCite
