چکیده
BACKGROUND Since the industrial revolution, the rate of industrialization and urbanization has increased dramatically. Regarding this issue, specific regions mostly located in developing countries have been confronted with serious problems, particularly environmental problems among which air pollution is of high importance. METHODS Eleven parameters, including CO, SO2, PM10, PM2.5, O3, NO2, benzene, toluene, ethyl-benzene, xylene, and 1,3-butadiene, have been accounted over a period of two years (2011-2012) from five monitoring stations located at Tehran, Iran, were assessed by using fuzzy inference system and fuzzy c-mean clustering. RESULTS These tools showed that the quality of criteria pollutants between the year 2011 and 2012 did not as much effect the public health as the other pollutants did. CONCLUSION Using the air EPA AQI, the quality of air, and also the managerial plans required to improve the quality can be misled.

Comparison Between Unsupervised and Supervise Fuzzy Clustering Method in Interactive Mode to Obtain the Best Result for Extract Subtle Patterns from Seismic Facies Maps
Pattern recognition on seismic data is a useful technique for generating seismic facies maps that capture changes in the geological depositional setting. Seismic facies analysis can be performed using the supervised and unsupervised pattern recognition methods. Each of these methods has its own advantages and disadvantages. In this paper, we compared and evaluated the capability of two unsuperv...

Slope stability analysis is an enduring research topic in the engineering and academic sectors. Accurate prediction of the factor of safety (FOS) of slopes, their stability, and their performance is not an easy task. In this work, the adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) was utilized to build an estimation model for the prediction of FOS. Three ANFIS models were implemented including g...
متن کاملOptimization and design of Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System using Particle Swarm Optimization and Fuzzy C-Means Clustering to predict the scour after bucket spillway
Additionally, if the materials at downstream of bucket spillway are erodible, the ogee spillway is likely to overturn by the time. Therefore, the prediction of the scour after bucket spillway is pretty important. In this study, the scour depths at downstream of bucket spillway are modeled using a new meta-heuristic model. This model is developed by combination of the Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Infere...
