in order to evaluate of yield and yield components of chickpea genotypes, path analysis set to facilitate the selection of high yielding varieties in limited irrigation. research was canducted in 2010-2011 growing season at the agricultural research station, ferdowsi university of mashhad, by using seven drought tolerante genotypes (recommended from a previous research) in a randomized complete...

Yi i.i.d. ∼ pθ∗ , i = {1, . . . , n} where θ∗ ∈ Θ. We can view pθ∗ as a member of a parametric class of distributions, P = {pθ}θ∈Θ. Our goal is to use the observations {Yi} to select an appropriate distribution (e.g., model) from P. We would like the selected distribution to be close to pθ in some sense. We use the negative log-likelihood loss function, defined as l(θ, Yi) = − log pθ(Yi). The e...

one of the main problems in crop production in iran is the difference between actual yield and attainable yield which is called yield gap. thus, identifying yield constraints and yield gap are important. to do this, a study was conducted in 95 farms gorgan of in five villages, during two years 2007 and 2008. in this study, all of the information about management operations, soil and crop charac...

The breast can be diffusely affected by a variety of specifi c and unique disorders, including benign disorders that are closely related to physiologic changes and infl ammatory and infectious diseases, as well as by benign and malignant tumors. The clinical manifestations include unilateral or bilateral breast enlargement with/without a palpable masses, shrinkage and breast asymmetry. Thus, kn...

Vector quantisation, a widely used technique in low-bit rate coding of speech signals, is highly sensitive to errors in the transmitted codeword caused by noise in the transmission channel. This paper describes an e cient index assignment algorithm, based on Hall's solution to the quadratic assignment problem, used to re-order the codebook such that the e ect of transmission errors is minimised...

Previous research indicates a correlation between leaf area index (LAI) and yield of full-season soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merrill], which is a single crop planted early in the season. Leaf area index values of at least 3.5-4.0 in the reproductive stages are required for maximum potential yield. It is unknown how yields of double-crop soybean, which is planted late into harvested small grain fi...

We prove, that for each r∈N, n∈N and s∈N there are a collection {yi}i=12s of points y2s0 is constant, depending only on r. Moreover, we ...
