in this paper, a new approach is proposed in order to select an optimal membership function for inputs of wind speed prediction system. then using a fuzzy method and the stochastic characteristics of wind speed in the previous year, the wind speed modeling is performed and the wind speed for the future year will be predicted. in this proposed method, the average and the standard deviation of in...

positive political metatheory based on the naturalistic ontology concerning unity of method in science, implies reducing social and political issues to naturalistic one and study the emperical regularities in a similar methodology. therfore, behaviors political fields conciderd to be subjected to a causal order that implies explanation and prediction according to deductive structure of scientif...

introduction: stroke is recognized as the third cause of mortality after cardiovascular and cancer diseases, so that lead to death of about 5 million people, annually. there are several scales to early prediction of at risk patients and decreasing the rate of mortality by transferring them to the stroke center. in the present study, the accuracy of cincinnati pre-hospital stroke scale was asses...

in this note‎, ‎we obtain some singular values inequalities for positive semidefinite matrices by using block matrix technique‎. ‎our results are similar to some inequalities shown by bhatia and kittaneh in [linear algebra appl‎. ‎308 (2000) 203-211] and [linear algebra appl‎. ‎428 (2008) 2177-2191]‎.

this was a prospective cross-sectional study of consecutive transported patients by emergency medical service (ems) to a referral hospital. the goal of this study was the evaluation of emergency medical technician intermediate prediction about their transported patients disposition in emergency department of imam khomeini hospital. 2950 patients were transported to this hospital, questionnaires...

OBJECTIVES Clinical prediction rules have been advocated as a possible mechanism to enhance clinical judgment in diagnostic, therapeutic, and prognostic assessment. Despite renewed interest in the their use, inconsistent terminology makes them difficult to index and retrieve by computerized search systems. No validated approaches to locating clinical prediction rules appear in the literature. T...

The gross calorific value (GCV) or heating value of a sample of fuel is one of the important properties which defines the energy of the fuel. Many researchers have proposed empirical formulas for estimating GCV value of coal. There are some known methods like Bomb Calorimeter for determining the GCV in the laboratory. But these methods are cumbersome, costly and time consuming. In this paper, m...
