Consciousness - a whirl in the neural flow of Information

چکیده
“Man is only a reed, the most feeble thing in nature, but he is a thinking reed. The entire universe need not arm itself to crush him. A vapor, a drop of water suffices to kill him. But, if the universe were to crush him, man would still be more noble than that which killed him, because he knows that he dies and the advantage which the universe has over him, the universe knows nothing of this.” Blaise Pascal, Pensees (“Thoughts”), 1660

Gas Flow Metering Using the PSO Optimized Interval Type- 2 Fuzzy Neural Network
Orifice flow meter is one of the most common devices in industry which is used for measuring the gas flow. This system includes an orifice plate, temperature and pressure transmitters, and a flow computer. The flow computer is used for collecting information related to temperature, pressure, and their differences under various conditions. Also the flow computer can calculate the flow rate of ga...
متن کاملExploring Impacts of Consciousness-raising in a Genre-based Pedagogy
This study reports on the findings of a genre teaching course for developing academic writing of a class of EFL students in Iran. The information report genre was taught in a cyclical way of teaching and learning, which was started from ‘setting the context’ and ‘deconstruction’ of prototype information report genre, and continued with ‘joint construction’, ‘independent construction’, and final...
متن کامل"Technical Report" Performance Comparison of IHACRES Model and Artificial Neural Network to Predict the Flow of Sivand River
The accurate determination of river flow in watersheds without sufficient data is one of the major challenges in hydrology. In this regard, given the diversity of existing hydrological models, selection of an appropriate model requires evaluation of the performance of the hydrological models in each region. The objective of this study was to compare the performance of artificial neural network ...
متن کاملIdentifying Flow Units Using an Artificial Neural Network Approach Optimized by the Imperialist Competitive Algorithm
The spatial distribution of petrophysical properties within the reservoirs is one of the most important factors in reservoir characterization. Flow units are the continuous body over a specific reservoir volume within which the geological and petrophysical properties are the same. Accordingly, an accurate prediction of flow units is a major task to achieve a reliable petrophysical description o...
متن کاملEvaluation of the Neuro-Fuzzy and Hybrid Wavelet-Neural Models Efficiency in River Flow Forecasting (Case Study: Mohmmad Abad Watershed)
One of the most important issues in watersheds management is rainfall-runoff hydrological process forecasting. Using new models in this field can contribute to proper management and planning. In addition, river flow forecasting, especially in flood conditions, will allow authorities to reduce the risk of flood damage. Considering the importance of river flow forecasting in water resources ma...
