Users increasingly rely on their mobile devices to search for local entities, typically businesses, while on the go. Recent work has recognized unique ranking signals in mobile local search (e.g., distance, customer rating, and number of reviews), and has proposed various ways of leveraging these signals for ranking. However, these techniques have overlooked a major challenge that is amplified ...

Overview of Selected Segmentation Approaches Segmentation approaches can range from throwing darts at the data to human judgment and to advanced cluster modeling. We will explore four such methods: factor segmentation, k-means clustering, TwoStep cluster analysis, and latent class cluster analysis. Factor Segmentation Factor segmentation is based on factor analysis. The first step is to factor-...

‎In this paper first we define the morphism between geometric spaces in two different types‎. ‎We construct two categories of $uu$ and $l$ from geometric spaces then investigate some properties of the two categories‎, ‎for instance $uu$ is topological‎. ‎The relation between hypergroups and geometric spaces is studied‎. ‎By constructing the category $qh$ of $H_{v}$-groups we answer the question...

We study the cluster structures of one-patch colloidal particles generated by droplet evaporation using Monte Carlo simulations. The addition of anisotropic patch-patch interaction between the colloids produces different cluster configurations. We find a well-defined category of sphere packing structures that minimize the second moment of mass distribution when the attractive surface coverage o...

Categorization models based on laboratory research focus on a narrower range of explanatory constructs than appears necessary for explaining the structure of natural categories. This mismatch is caused by the reliance on classification as the basis of laboratory studies. Category representations are formed in the process of interacting with category members. Thus, laboratory studies must explor...

abstract: aim and background: the exact review of the prevalence of internalized and externalized disorders in adolescence is essential to design and prepares appropriate remedial services that aimed at reducing the negative consequences and subsequent growth of mental disorders and improving adolescent functioning. the aim of this study is investigation of prevalence of internalized and extern...

This paper proposes an energy-efficient geocast algorithm for wireless sensor networks with guaranteed delivery of packets from the sink to all nodes located in several geocast regions. Our approach is different from those existing in the literature. We first propose a hybrid clustering scheme: in the first phase we partition the network in cliques using an existing energy-efficient clustering ...
