abstract information about the spatial patterns of soil biodiversity is limited though required, e.g. for understanding effects of biodiversity on ecosystem processes. this study was conducted to determine whether soil macrofauna biodiversity parameters display spatial patterns in the riparian forest landscape of karkhe. soil macrofauna were sampled using 200 sampling point along parallel trans...

purpose: to analyze the clinical patterns and etiologies of uveitis in isfahan. methods: the records of 2016 patients with uveitis who had been referred to the feiz tertiary eye care center, isfahan, between 1999 and 2013 were classified and analyzed with respect to demographic, clinical, anatomical, and etiological characteristics. results: at the onset of uveitis, the mean patient age was 33....

background: essential hypertension tends to a familial mode. its pattern of inheritance is heterogeneous, but the frequencies of different mode of inheritance vary in different populations. determining of the mode of inheritance in each family is the basic information that is needed for the risk estimation in those family members. determination of pattern of inheritance in families with at leas...

distribution of the genus chondrostoma in iran, which is mostly known from the caspian sea, tigris river, kor river and esfahan basins was mapped. the kura nase, chondrostoma cyri is reported from armenia, georgia and iran and it is found in the streams and rivers draining to the western coast of the caspian sea from the kuma river in the north southward to the kura and aras river basins in the...

Risk patterns are crucial in biomedical research and have served as an important factor precision health disease prevention. Despite recent development parallel high-performance computing, existing risk pattern mining methods still struggle with problems caused by large-scale datasets, such redundant candidate generation, inability to discover long significant patterns, prolonged post filtering...

The syntactic information latent in any coherent text can be exploited to overcome some inadequacies of keyword-based retrieval and make information retrieval more eeective. We have earlier quantitatively demonstrated how syntactic information is useful in ltering out irrelevant documents. We have implemented a system which exploits a rich syntactic representation of supertags in a exible manne...

Mining frequent patterns from large databases plays an essential role in many data mining tasks and has broad applications. Most of the previously proposed methods adopt apriorilike candidate-generation-and-test approaches. However, those methods may encounter serious challenges when mining datasets with prolific patterns and/or long patterns. In this work, we develop a class of novel and effic...

In this paper, we propose a new task decomposition method, Task Decomposition with Pattern Distributor (PD), for multilayered feedforward neural networks. The method uses a combination of network modules in parallel and series to generate the overall solution for a complex problem. We also introduce a method called reduced pattern training in PD networks. This method aims to improve the perform...
