Urban Growth Modeling using Integrated Cellular Automata and Gravitational Search Algorithm (Case Study: Shiraz City, Iran)
Cities are growing and encountering many changes over time due to population growth and migration. Identification and detection of these changes play important roles in urban management and sustainable development. Urban growth models are divided into two main categories: first cellular models which are further divided into experimental, dynamic, and integrated models and second vector models. ...
متن کاملمدل معادلات ساختاری و کاربرد آن در مطالعات روانشناسی: یک مطالعه مروری
Introduction: Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) is a very general statistical modeling technique, which is widely used in the behavioral sciences. It can be viewed as a combination of path analysis, regression and factor analysis. One of the prominent features of this method is the ability to compute direct, indirect and total effects, as well as latent variable modeling. Methods: This sy...
متن کاملDetermination of the genetic and non-genetic variations in growth curve of Zandi lambs by random regression models
The aim of this study was to model the variances and covariances of body weight in Zandi sheep from 60 to 365 days of age using random regression models (RRM). Legendre polynomials of different orders were used to model the direct and maternal covariances. Mean trends were also modeled through a quadratic regression on orthogonal polynomials of age. Homogeneity and heterogeneity of the residual...

Background: Road Traffic Accidents (RTA) is a major public health problem in the world. The RTAs patterns are different in various countries which require taking specific approach es and strategies. The purpose of this study was to use Growth Mixture Model (GMM) to study the pattern of RTAs death rate worldwide. Methods: In this longitudinal study, RTAs death rate data of 193 countries from 20...
متن کاملOptimal Government Spending and Taxation in Three-Sector Endogenous Growth Model-Case Iran
The recent literature on taxation and growth has stressed the optimality of a zero long-run taxation on all accumulative factors of production. For a given path of government spending, the optimal tax plan requires the government to build up a positive stock of public wealth in the short run in the long-run, government spending can be financed with the income accruing from the management of the...
