In this work we deal with actions of vector groupoid which is a new concept in the literature‎. ‎After we give the definition of the action of a vector groupoid on a vector space‎, ‎we obtain some results related to actions of vector groupoids‎. ‎We also apply some characterizations of the category and groupoid theory to vector groupoids‎. ‎As the second part of the work‎, ‎we define the notion...

a‎s we know, developing mathematical models and numerical procedures that would appropriately treat and solve systems of linear equations where some of the system's parameters are proposed as fuzzy numbers is very important in fuzzy set theory. for this reason, many researchers have used various numerical methods to solve fuzzy linear systems. in this paper, we define the concepts of midpoint a...

this paper is concerned with the development of a novel classifier for automatic mass detection of mammograms, based on contourlet feature extraction in conjunction with statistical and fuzzy classifiers. in this method, mammograms are segmented into regions of interest (roi) in order to extract features including geometrical and contourlet coefficients. the extracted features benefit from...

Despite the higher capital costs of tunnels and supplementary cost maintenance, fewer deterioration models have been built compared with other highway components. Most these were limited to structural defects, not operational conditions. Moreover, there are inherent subjectivity inaccuracy developed models, which may affect maintenance process. The aim this research proposed contribution invest...

background in spite of dozens of clinical trials to establish effective therapeutic and/or preventive vaccine to resolve hcv infection, no real vaccine has been proved to date. genetic vaccines based on replication-defective adenoviruses have proved to elicit strong and long lasting t-cell responses against a number of viral antigens and are even currently being used for vaccine trials in human...

abstract background and purpose:vector-borne diseases such as malaria and leishmaniasis are still a public health problem in iran. one of the effective ways to prevent of these diseases is to improve the vector control program. we carried out this study for assessment managers of school knowledge, attitude and practice regarding vector control programs. materials and methods:a cross-sectional s...

Operator fatigue and time-of-day induced variations in cognitive effectiveness can lead to lapses in attention, slowed reactions, and impaired reasoning and decision-making that has been shown to contribute to accidents, incidents and errors in a host of industrial and military settings. During the past three years, the US Air Force has sponsored the development of a model of human fatigue and ...

leishmaniasis has long been known as a significant public health challenge in many parts of iran. phlebotomus pa­patasi and p. sergent i are the vectors of zoonotic cutaneous leishmaniasis and anthroponotic cutaneous leish­maniasis respectively, and 5 species of sand flies including p. kandelakii , p. neglectus , p. perfiliewi , p. keshishiani and p. alexandri are considered as probable vectors...
