Heritabilities of 11 quasi-continuous skeletal traits were estimated in randombred house mice of three separate ages (1, 3, and 5 months). Three separate methods--regression, maximum likelihood correlation, and Falconer's Method--were used to obtain heritabilities for each of the separate age groups. Significant differences in the incidences of seven of the skeletal traits were found among ages...

Tribals constitute a major chunk of the total population of India. Out of a total 475 tribal groups in India, about 75 are primitive tribes. Kutia Kondhs of Orissa state are one of the most primitive tribal people of the country. A total of 2488 children aged 6-15 years belonging to 15 major tribes were screened for ABO and Rhesus (D) blood groups at random from various Ashram schools in eight ...

In this paper, a new method of fuzzy decision trees called soft decision trees (SDT) is presented. This method combines tree growing and pruning, to determine the structure of the soft decision tree, with re4tting and back4tting, to improve its generalization capabilities. The method is explained and motivated and its behavior is 4rst analyzed empirically on 3 large databases in terms of classi...

In this paper, we have dealt with the concept of fuzzy b-closed and fuzzy bcompact set, and we study the characterization of fuzzy b-compact set by using fuzzy filterbases. We consider some relations between the fuzzy b-compact space and fuzzy b-closed space. Finally, the concept of bounded and semi bounded operators between fuzzy normed space are studied and some immediate results are also pro...

Specific molecular recognition is assumed to require a well-defined set of contacts and devoid of conformational and interaction ambiguities. Growing experimental evidence demonstrates however, that structural multiplicity or dynamic disorder can be retained in protein complexes, termed as fuzziness. Fuzzy regions establish alternative contacts between specific partners usually via transient in...

This paper is to deal with a kind of fuzzy multi-objective linear programming (FMOLP) problem with symmetric trapezoidal fuzzy numbers. Several methods has been proposed in order to obtain fuzzy efficient solution to FMOLP problem. In this paper, we change FMOLP problem into the complete stratified fuzzy linear programming problem, then use the stratified simplex method to obtain the fuzzy opti...

We establish a generalized Hyers–Ulam–Rassias stability theorem in the fuzzy sense. In particular, we introduce the notion of fuzzy approximate Jensen mapping and prove that if a fuzzy approximate Jensen mapping is continuous at a point, then we can approximate it by an everywhere continuous Jensen mapping. As a fuzzy version of a theorem of Schwaiger, we also show that if every fuzzy approxima...

In this paper it has been studied the sequence of membership functions and of join spaces (see [7]), determined by a class of 1–hypergroups which are not complete (see [2]).

We present a logic, called fuzzy attribute logic, for reasoning about formulas describing particular attribute dependencies. The formulas are of a form A ⇒ B where A and B are collections of attributes. Our formulas can be interpreted in two ways. First, in data tables with entries containing degrees to which objects (table rows) have attributes (table columns). Second, in database tables where...
