Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleCow Efficiency, Relative-Birth Weight and Subsequent Pre-Weaning Growth Performance of Nguni CattleTakalani Judas Mpofu, Khathutshelo Agree Nephawe, Muzi Mandla Ginindza et al.The objective of this study was to evaluate factors influencing Cow Efficiency (CE), Relative-Birth Weight (R-BW), and subsequent pre-weaning growth performance of Nguni cattle in Limpopo Province, South Africa. Factors that were considered were dammed weight at calving, agro-ecological zone, the season of birth, sex of calves, parity, and dam age. Data from Nguni cows and their calves (n = … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 17, Issue 2 · 23 May 2022 · 7,141 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsThe Use of E100 to Fuel a Used 4-Stroke MotorcycleT. SuthisripokProblem statement: Though ethanol and gasohol are proved to be used as alternative fuels in vehicles, 4-stoke motorcycles used nationwide mainly consumed gasoline 91/95. Approach: The motorcycle tested, the used Honda Wave125 model, was properly tuned at the rich relative air-fuel ratio (λ) 0.85, which theoretically gave the maximum power output. For the use of E100, the engine required richer … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 5 · 23 Feb 2012 · 9,474 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsAn Extended Semi-Parametric Accelerated Failure Time Cure Model for Partial Cure Information KnownYu Wu, Yong Lin, Shou-En Lu et al.Cure model is a useful model for analyzing failure time data when there is evidence of long-term survivors. In traditional cure models, it is assumed that the cured or uncured status in the censored set cannot be distinguished. However, in many occasions, data of some diagnostic procedures, with some sensitivity and specificity, may have provided partial information about the cured … …Current Research in Biostatistics, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 11 Dec 2018 · 7,618 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsInfluence of Citric Acid and Microbial Phytase on Growth Performance and Carcass Characteristics of Broiler ChickensRouhollah Nourmohammadi, Seyed Mohammad Hosseini, Homayoun FarhangfarProblem statement: The aim of this study was to investigated the effects of adding citric acid and microbial phytase supplementation (Natuphos®) on growth performance and carcass characteristics of broiler chickens fed corn soybean meal base diets. Approach: The experiment included nine treatments with 10 birds in each replicate using a 3×3 factorial design for two main factors of citric acid … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2010 · 8,297 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsA New Approach Using Data Envelopment Analysis for Ranking Classification AlgorithmsA. Bazleh, P. Gholami, F. SoleymaniProblem statement: A variety of methods and algorithms for classification problems have been developed recently. But the main question is that how to select an appropriate and effective classification algorithm. This has always been an important and difficult issue. Approach: Since the classification algorithm selection task needs to examine more than one criterion such as accuracy and computational time, it … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 15 Sep 2011 · 7,443 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of Maize Potato Intercropping and Different Fertilization Methods on Rhizosphere Soil Microorganisms and Yield of PotatoHuanjin Ma, Shengguang Xu et al.A field experiment with three replicates was conducted to explore the effects of maize-potato intercropping and different nitrogen application strategies on rhizosphere soil microorganisms and potato yield. Microbial community analysis was based on relative abundance. Maize-potato intercropping improves land use efficiency, yet how differentiated nitrogen management regulates rhizosphere microecology and potato productivity in this system remains unclear. Clarifying nitrogen-mediated shifts … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 22, Issue 3 · 14 Sep 2026 · 790 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Novel Blockchain-Based System for Developing a Virtual JudgeHayder Abdulsattar Nahi, Noor Hasssan Fadhil, Moatasem Mohammed Saeed, Rusul Abdulkarrem SalmanThe designed judicial system is frequently unavailable to people, it is needed in a long time to process and is expensive. Blockchain technology proposes a potential explanation for these cases by facilitating the construction of a virtual judge that can automate considerable dispute resolution processes. This study suggests utilizing blockchain technology with Network Function Virtualization (NFV) to create a virtual … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 21, Issue 2 · 18 Jan 2025 · 5,874 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Empirical Study of Robust Modified Recursive Fits of Moving Average ModelsMohamed Ali Ismail, Hend A. Auda, Joe W. McKean, Mahmoud Mohamed SadekThe time-series Moving Average (MA) model is a nonlinear model; see, for example. For traditional Least Squares (LS) fits, there are several algorithms to use for computing its fit. Since the model is nonlinear, Fuller discusses a Newton-type step algorithm. proposed a recursive algorithm based on a sequence of three linear LS regressions. In this study, we robustify Koreisha and … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 18, Issue 1 · 28 Jul 2022 · 5,859 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Efficient Cluster Head Selection in IoV-Enabled VANETs Using a Federated Diffusion Convolutional Recurrent Neural Networks FrameworkP Subhash, Madana Srinivas, A. Ranjith et al.The IoV enables the formation of VANETs that require a strong selection of CHs for effective communication within high-velocity changing traffic scenarios. Existing approaches often face issues related to scalability, privacy, and adaptability. To meet the aforementioned urgent needs, we design a decentralized scheme for intelligent CH selection based on Federated Learning with Diffusion Convolutional Recurrent Neural Networks (DCRNNs).
