Wavelength selection is one of the key steps in quantitative spectral analysis, which reduces computation time while also improving prediction accuracy model. In this paper, we propose a wavelength algorithm based on ant colony optimization (ACO), absolute value regression coefficient multiple linear (MLR) model used as basis for evaluating importance wavelengths, and after full MLR modeling in...

Predicting the mass of solid waste generation plays an important role in integrated solid waste management plans. In this study, the performance of two predictive models, Artificial Neural Network (ANN) and Multiple Linear Regression (MLR) was verified to predict mean Seasonal Municipal Solid Waste Generation (SMSWG) rate. The accuracy of the proposed models is illustrated through a case study ...

in this work the electrooxidation half-wave potentials of some benzoxazines were predicted from their structural molecular descriptors by using quantitative structure-property relationship (qsar) approaches. the dataset consist the half-wave potential of 40 benzoxazine derivatives which were obtained by dc-polarography. descriptors which were selected by stepwise multiple selection procedure ar...

a robust and reliable quantitative structure-property relationship (qspr) study was established to forecast the melting points (mps)  of a diverse and long set including 250 drug-like compounds. based on the calculated descriptors by dragon software package, to detect homogeneities and to split the whole dataset into training and test sets, a principal component analysis (pca) approach was used...

Energy efficiency in buildings requires having good prediction of the variables that define the power consumption in the building. Temperature is the most relevant of these variables because it affects the operation of the cooling systems in summer and the heating systems in winter, while being also the main variable that defines comfort. This paper presents the application of classical methods...

Accurate monitoring and forecasting of drought are crucial. They play a vital role in the optimal functioning irrigation systems, risk management, readiness, alleviation. In this work, Artificial Intelligence (AI) models, comprising Multi-layer Perceptron Neural Network (MLPNN) Co-Active Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System (CANFIS), regression, model including Multiple Linear Regression (MLR), were in...

The 17β-HSD3 enzyme plays a key role in treatment of prostate cancer and small inhibitorscan be used to efficiently target it. In the present study, the multiple linear regression (MLR),and support vector machine (SVM) methods were used to interpret the chemical structuralfunctionality against the inhibition activity of some 17β-HSD3inhibitors. Chemical structuralinformation were described thro...

Predicting the stream flow is one of the most important steps in the water resources management. Artificial neural network (ANN) has been suggested and applied for this purpose by many of researchers. In such studies for verification and comparison of ANN results usually the popular methods such as multivariate linear regression (MLR) is used. Unfortunately, the presented methodology in some re...

This study investigated the effects of soil particle size on the reflectance spectra of sandy soils using ultraviolet, visible, and near-infrared spectroscopy in sensing phosphorus (P) concentration. Pure sandy soil was graded into three particle sizes. Sieve sizes were 125, 250, and 600 m for fine, medium, and coarse, respectively. Phosphorus application rates for the soil samples were 0.0, 12...

UNLABELLED The search for the association between complex diseases and single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) or haplotypes has recently received great attention. For these studies, it is essential to use a small subset of informative SNPs accurately representing the rest of the SNPs. Informative SNP selection can achieve (1) considerable budget savings by genotyping only a limited number of SN...
