This paper presents a comparative study between three versions of adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) algorithms and a pseudo-forward equation (PFE) to characterize the North Sea reservoir (F3 block) based on seismic data. According to the statistical studies, four attributes (energy, envelope, spectral decomposition and similarity) are known to be useful as fundamental attributes in ...

question about the possibility of knowledge about the true nature of divine essence and attributes has always been one of the most important issues in the history of human thought. in various statements of imam ‘alī (a.s.)’s sayings, it is asserted that knowledge about the true nature of divine essence and attribute is not possible for man by any of recognition tools. although this type of know...

application of automatic systems, including discharge measurement technology is one of the effective methods for improving delivery management, water use efficiency, flexibility, and performance of irrigation networks. several aspects such as hydraulic, technical, physical, environmental, economic, social, and managerial, have significant impact on these systems selection. due to diversity of t...

Traditionally, marketers have focused on functional and meaningful product differentiation and have shown that such differentiation is important because consumers engage in a deliberate reasoning process (Chernev, 2001; Shafir et al., 1993; Simonson, 1989). However, nowadays products in many categories are functionally highly similar, and it is difficult for consumers to differentiate products ...

The movement to eliminate lead (Pb), especially active in Japan and the European Union, has resulted in an increasing use of pure tin (Sn) coatings on leads and other external and internal surfaces of capacitors, resistors, and other passive components. This paper discusses the issues of tin whisker growth with respect to passive components. It also presents both a critical analysis of existing...

In this chapter, we present a weakly-supervised approach that discovers the spatial extent of relative attributes, given only pairs of ordered images. In contrast to traditional approaches that use global appearance features or rely on keypoint detectors, our goal is to automatically discover the image regions that are relevant to the attribute, even when the attribute’s appearance changes dras...

In the literature, several different definitions of trust and models have been presented to aid researchers as they apply the concepts of trust within their systems. The multiplicity of trust definitions creates a high level of ambiguity. This paper takes a step away from models of trust and attempts to define and categorize several attributes, methods of discovery, and methods of evaluation th...

current research was aimed to study the effect of soil different treatments on seed germination and seedling survival of pinus brutia ten. seedling in nursery of koloudeh, located in amol city. seeds in plastic pots were sown at four different soil treatments including: (a) nursery soil (control), (b) control soil: cattle manure (5:1), (c) control soil: decomposited litter (5:1), (d) control so...

of the original article: Psychophysical scaling models of the form R = f(I), with R the response and I some intensity of an attribute, all assume that people judge the amounts of an attribute. With simple biases excepted, most also assume that judgments are independent of space, time, and features of the situation other than the one being judged. Many data support these ideas: Magnitude estimat...
