چکیده

An earlier version of this document was published as Hankin (2005). This paper introduces the BACCO package of R routines for carrying out Bayesian analysis of computer code output. The package requires three packages of related functionality: emulator and calibrator, and approximator, computerized implementations of the ideas of Oakley and O’Hagan (2002), Kennedy and O’Hagan (2001a), and Kennedy and O’Hagan (2000) respectively. The package is self-contained and fully documented R code, and includes a toy dataset that furnishes a working example of the functions. Package emulator carries out Bayesian emulation of computer code output; package calibrator allows the incorporation of observational data into model calibration using Bayesian techniques. The package is then applied to a dataset taken from climate science.

An Improved Method for Seismic Site Characterization with Emphasis on Liquefaction Phenomenon

Iran is an active seismic region. Earthquake damage is commonly controlled by three interacting factors including source and path characteristics, local geological and geotechnical conditions and type of the structures. Obviously, all of this would require analysis and presentation of a large amount of geological, seismological and geotechnical data. In this paper, nonlinear geotechnical seismi...

Modification of the Fast Global K-means Using a Fuzzy Relation with Application in Microarray Data Analysis

Recognizing genes with distinctive expression levels can help in prevention, diagnosis and treatment of the diseases at the genomic level. In this paper, fast Global k-means (fast GKM) is developed for clustering the gene expression datasets. Fast GKM is a significant improvement of the k-means clustering method. It is an incremental clustering method which starts with one cluster. Iteratively ...
