A computational method to analyze the similarity of biological sequences under uncertainty

from linguistics to literature: a linguistic approach to the study of linguistic deviations in the turkish divan of shahriar

chapter i provides an overview of structural linguistics and touches upon the saussurean dichotomies with the final goal of exploring their relevance to the stylistic studies of literature. to provide evidence for the singificance of the study, chapter ii deals with the controversial issue of linguistics and literature, and presents opposing views which, at the same time, have been central to t...

A Computational Method for Sensitivity Analysis under Uncertainty

Sensitivity analysis (SA) is an important part in engineering design under the uncertainty to provide valuable information about the probabilistic characteristics of a response. In this paper, the variance-based methods and the cumulative distribution function (CDF)-based sensitivity coefficients were used in sensitivity analysis. The combination of sparse grid stochastic collocation (SC) and t...

A hybrid group decision making method to analyze the development of third generation biodiesel in Iran

Increasing energy use in the world, limited fossil fuel reserves and environmental issues leads researchers to study about renewable energy resources like biofuels. Biodiesel is a kind of biofuel that can be derived from biomasses like microalgae. These biomasses grow in the southern areas of Iran. So, suitable strategies should be determined to develop biodiesel production from these biomasses...

A Systematic Method to Analyze Transport Networks: Considering Traffic Shifts

Current network modeling practices usually assess the network performance at specified time interval, i.e. every 5 or 10 years time horizon. Furthermore, they are usually based on partially predictable data, which are being generated through various stochastic procedures. In this research, a new quantitative based methodology which combines combinatorial optimization modeling and transportation...

a synchronic and diachronic approach to the change route of address terms in the two recent centuries of persian language

terms of address as an important linguistics items provide valuable information about the interlocutors, their relationship and their circumstances. this study was done to investigate the change route of persian address terms in the two recent centuries including three historical periods of qajar, pahlavi and after the islamic revolution. data were extracted from a corpus consisting 24 novels w...
