The attributes of talent are exceptional memory, rapid processing speed, and high motivation, an affinity for learning, creativity and optimal cognition. There is some proof suggests that certain aspects of talent are re...

The study was conducted to estimate the genetic and phenotypic correlations among body measurements, body weight, kidding interval, kidding rate and milk yield in the different breeds of goat. Data was collected on 95 goats of three breeds (Jamunapari, Black Bengal and their crosses (Jamunapari×Black Bengal) through direct observation. The average body weight of Jamunapari goat was 34.75 ± 3.33...

the objective of the current study was to estimate the genetic parameters for body weight traits at different ages in iran-black sheep. data collected during a 24-year period (1984-2008) on body weight were used to model the growth trajectory and estimate genetic parameters. studied traits were birth weight (bw), weaning weight at 3 months of age (ww), 6 months weight (6mw), 9 months weight (9m...

Abstract For the feature-based detector of small targets in sea clutter, on one hand, three-dimensional convex hull-based deviates from distribution clutter vectors feature space and only combines information low-dimen-sional features. On other redundancy correla-tion between high-dimensional features a...
