background : studies have shown that noise pollution has harmful effects on human health. the sound of traffic is the main source of noise pollution in cities. the purpose of this study was to determine noise pollution using a geographical information system (gis) in the main streets of kashan, iran. methods: in this study, 180 noise samples were collected from 20 regions of the main streets in...

The first section gives the measure of uncertainty given by Shannon (1948) and the generalizations thereof by Schvitzenberger (1954), Kullback (1959), Renyi (1961,1965), Kapur (1967, 1968), and Rathie (1970). It gives some postulates characterizing Shannon's entropy, Renyi's entropy of order a and our entropy of order a and type P. It also gives some properties of this most general type of entr...

conclusions according to the average of wqi index, quality of water was good in station number one, medium in station number two, and bad in the rest of stations. according to the wilcox index, qualities of water in third station were medium and in the rest were good. results by using wqi, the best water quality was reported in station number one with the scalar quantity of 71.11 (water with be...

The Index Coding problem has attracted a considerable amount of attention in the recent years. The problem is motivated by several applications in wireless networking and distributed computing. An instance of the index coding problem includes a sender that holds an input x = (x1, x2, . . . , xn) ∈ {0, 1} and communicates with n receivers R1, . . . , Rn using wireless broadcast channel. Each rec...
