natural fire inflicting irreparable damage to rangelands and forest areas is cause changes in landscape ecology. the purpose of this research is comparison of artificial neural network (ann) and line regression (lr) models to predict of forest and rangelands fires to this end, the data consist fire burned area and fire were used weather data over a period of 7 years (2006-2012(.the result indic...

In the seismic inversion model, as the neural network algorithm there are some problems, the convergence bad, accuracy is not high. This paper presents a seismic inversion based on artificial fish Swarm Optimization neural network models. First to initialize fish mapping of chaos optimization and ergodicity of artificial fish-swarm search and adaptive strategies of artificial fish-swarm algorit...

This paper deals with modeling and optimization of the roll-bonding process of Ti/Cu/Ti composite for determination of the best roll-bonding parameters leading to the maximum Ti/Cu bond strength by combination of neural network and genetic algorithm. An artificial neural network (ANN) program has been proposed to determine the effect of practical parameters, i.e., rolling temperature, reduction...

the paper deals with data envelopment analysis (dea) and artificial neural network (ann). we believe that solving for the dea efficiency measure, simultaneously with neural network model, provides a promising rich approach to optimal solution. in this paper, a new neural network model is used to estimate the inefficiency of dmus in large datasets.

ABSTRACT Optimization algorithms are normally influenced by metaheuristic approach. In recent years several hybrid methods for optimization are developed to find out a better solution. The proposed work using meta-heuristic Nature Inspired algorithm is applied with back-propagation method to train a feedforward neural network. Firefly algorithm is a nature inspired meta-heuristic algorithm, and...

one of the major problems that may occur in the differential protection systems of power transformers is mal-operation of the protection relays in sake of internal fault detection, because of similarity between this current and inrush current. this paper presents a novel approach for discriminating inrush current from internal fault in power transformers based on improved gravitational search a...

this paper presents a new model for predicting the compressive strength of steel-confined concrete on circular concrete filled steel tube (ccfst) stub columns under axial loading condition based on artificial neural networks (anns) by using a large wide of experimental investigations. the input parameters were selected based on past studies such as outer diameter of column, compressive strength...

introduction: intravenous general anesthetic agents are among the most important and widely used anesthetic drugs in the clinical practice. many pharmacological studies have shown that potentiation of gaba and glycine on their receptors is the most plausible mechanism. nevertheless, there is limited information on the effects of co-administration of two or more of these agents. however, experim...

abstract agricultural sector is the most important sectors in the country which has a large share in total employment. the increasing supply of labor because population growth and low capacity of production cause the country with high rate of unemployment. therefore, stand with this crisis is one of the most important works of government. in this study using artificial neural network, the emplo...
