Abstract This paper presents a robust approach using artificial neural networks in the form of a Self Organizing Map (SOM) as a semi-automatic method for analysis and identification of morphometric features in two completely different environments, the Man and Biosphere Reserve “Eastern Carpathians” (Central Europe) in a complex mountainous humid area and Yardangs in Lut Desert, Iran, a hyper...

At the time of surgical repair, a lung biopsy was performed on patients with congenital heart defects who either had pulmonary hypertension or in whom it would be likely to develop if the lesion were not corrected. Pulmonary vascular changes, assessed morphometrically and also according to the classification of Heath and Edwards (Circulation 18: 533, 1958), were correlated with the postoperativ...

 Traditional morphometric measurements and meristic counts were used to investigate the hypothesis of population fragmentation of Mash mahi, Aspius aspius taeniatus (Eichwald, 1831) among two fishing areas in southern Caspian Sea basin(Tonekabon:32 specimens  and Sari:34 specimens ). Univariate analysis of variance showed significant differences between the means of the two groups for 12 out of...

In this study, by examining the character of the morphometric and meristic in which Cyprinion macrostomus samples obtained from different locality in Tigris, morphometric character which are transformed subject to discriminant analysis and depending on grouping model to number of discriminant functions and according to importance of these totally variance, morphogical variance among populations...

In this work, landslide assessment of the Doboj City area was modeled by combining machine learning and heuristic tools. The part used to map Morphometric factor. i.e. probability landslides based on relation between magnitude events morphometric parameters: elevation, distance streams, slope, profile curvature, aspect. Random Forest Support Vector Machines algorithms were implemented in protoc...

Objective- Postoperative pain management in patients that undergone arthroscopy is one of the most important procedures for their rehabilitation. Analgesic injection intra-articularly can facilitate pain control in such patients. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of ketamine on articular cartilage in rat model. Design- Experimental study. Animals- Twenty Wistar Rats Procedure...

one section of the tarbur formation (462 m thickness) located about 5 km southwest of semirom was studied. it consists of carbonate and terrigenous rocks and contains abundant large benthic foraminifera assigned to the late maastrichtian. in the upper maastrichtian, loftusia is very abundant in carbonate sequence of the middle east tethyan realm. loftusia is an important genus for palaeontologi...

during an 11 days mission in february 2000 the shuttle radar topography mission (srtm) collected data over 80% of the earth's land surface, for all areas between 60 degrees n and 56 degrees s latitude. since srtm data became available, many studies utilized them for application in topography and morphometric landscape analysis. exploiting srtm data for recognition and extraction of topographic ...
