Avalanche is one of a variety of mass movements that refers to the rapid movement of masses of snow in the direction of slope gradient. Avalanche drives in addition to snow, rock and soil and plant and damage the communication lines, buildings and power lines on the way to the avalanche. In this research, domains with avalanche potential were zoned using artificial neural network model (MLP). I...

abstract: in the paper of black and scholes (1973) a closed form solution for the price of a european option is derived . as extension to the black and scholes model with constant volatility, option pricing model with time varying volatility have been suggested within the frame work of generalized autoregressive conditional heteroskedasticity (garch) . these processes can explain a number of em...
