Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPerformance of Multiple Linear Regression and Nonlinear Neural Networks and Fuzzy Logic Techniques in Modelling House PricesSiti Amri, Gurudeo Anand TularamHouse price prediction continues to be important for government agencies insurance companies and real estate industry. This study investigates the performance of house sales price models based on linear and non-linear approaches to study the effects of selected variables. Linear stepwise Multiple Regression (MR) and nonlinear models of Neural Network (NN) and Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy (ANFIS) are developed and compared. The … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 18 Dec 2012 · 8,434 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractForecasting of Energy Consumption and Pollutant Emission for Road Transportation Policies EvaluationPunravee Kongboontiam, Rungsun UdomsriProblem statement: The energy demand in Thailand has significantly increased over last ten years, particularly in transportation sector. Road transportation contributes the highest energy consumption, 38% of the total energy in the whole country, but it consumes 60% of the total energy usage in the northern region of Thailand. Various chemical pollutants emitted from the road transportation affecting to human … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 23 Jan 2012 · 7,722 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractApplication of Theories of Complexity and Chaos to Economic MisgovernancePartha Gangopadhyay, Nasser Elkanj, Mustafa A. RahmanProblem statement: In this study we develop a comprehensive model involving local taxes, intergovernmental transfers and bureaucratic corruption to characterize a fiscal equilibrium in order to explain the provision of local (public) expenditure in developing nations. The main goal of the research is to explain economic misgovernance as an equilibrium phenomenon, which is therefore expected to persist over time despite … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 27 Jul 2011 · 7,379 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractModeling Projects in E-Learning Course: A Case of an Information Technology ProjectMohammed Ghaouth Belkasmi, Toumi Bouchentouf, Mostafa Azizi, Abdelhamid BenazziProblem statement: Achieving projects is primordial in the process of teaching in several disciplines, particularly software engineering courses. However, proposing this learning activity in a context of e-learning is not automatically guaranteed by the current platforms, even unsupported by the existing standards for creating educational content. Approach: Through this study, starting from the model developed in the “XESOP-Jaxe” project to … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2010 · 6,965 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractExtending the Concepts of Normalization from Relational Databases to Extensible-Markup-Language Databases ModelH.J. F. El-SofanyIn this study we have studied the problem of how to extend the concepts of Functional Dependency (FD) and normalization in relational databases to include the eXtensible Markup Language (XML) model. We shown that, like relational databases, XML documents may contain redundant information and this redundancy may cause update anomalies. Furthermore, such problems are caused by certain functional dependencies among … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 4, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2008 · 6,464 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMathematical Model of the Relationship between BGP Convergence Delay and Network TopologiesYahia Hasan JazyahBGP is a distant vector inters Autonomous System (AS) routing protocol that comes up after EGP to eliminate the inefficiency of EGP with respect to flexibility and scalability and to give support of an actual routing protocol. BGP handles the scalability problem using Classless Inter-Domain Routing (CIDR) and solves the inefficiency of EGP by accumulating all the possible route information … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 1 Jan 2018 · 9,254 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInvestigation of Sandwich Panel Under High Temperature Loading Using Finite Element AnalysisSajjad Sayyar Roudsari, Armaghan Shalbaftabar, Taher M. Abu-Lebdeh et al.Structural and nonstructural members are always encountered with extreme loading conditions. In case of nonstructural members, the failure happens much sooner due to lack of load capacity. The nonstructural elements are not designed for structural loading conditions. However, they might be impacted to other loading types such as fire. In recent years, the use of 3D panel is one of … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 2 · 1 Jul 2020 · 7,683 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGeometric Optimization of Complex Heat Exchangers using Constructal TechniqueNahum Yustus GodiThe application of microchannel heat exchangers for cooling is documented in this study. Numerical optimization is carried out with the goal of minimising the peak wall temperature in the microchannel heat sink modelled with solid and half hollow square micro fins. A high-density heat flux q'' from a microelectronic device was applied at the bottom wall of the microchannel heat … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 1 · 8 Feb 2022 · 6,317 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractModern Metaheuristic with Multi-Objective Formulation for the Variable Selection ProblemLauro Cassio Martins de Paula, Anderson da Silva Soares, Telma Woerle Soares et al.The development of efficient algorithms for variable selection becomes important to deal with large and complex datasets. Most works in quantitative chemical analysis have used Genetic Algorithms (GAs) as a reference method to select variables. On the other hand, new advances in metaheuristic techniques provide novel possibilities in this task Moreover, the application of Multi-Objective Optimization (MOO) may significantly contribute … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 13, Issue 11 · 20 Nov 2017 · 7,668 accessesView PDFCite
