background : the study examined the implementation of artificial neural network (ann) for the prediction of ammonia nitrogen removal from landfill leachate by ultrasonic process. methods : a three-layer backpropagation neural network was optimized to predict ammonia nitrogen removal from landfill leachate by ultrasonic process. considering the smallest mean square error (mse), the configuration...

In this paper, we present a multi-formalism modeling framework (abbreviated by MFMF) for modeling and simulation. The proposed framework is defined based on the concepts of meta-models and uses object-orientation to overcome the complexities and to enhance the extensibility. The framework can be used as a basis for modeling by various formalisms and to support model composition in a unified man...

In this study a hierarchical hub location problem with two layers is considered. The first layer includes small hubs and the second one includes a star-shaped network central hub. The considered case is a cargo delivery network where there is hierarchy between hubs. All the hubs and links are capacitated and there are three kinds of commodities for each of which there is a special kind of vehic...

This paper proposes an intelligent approach for dynamic identification of the vehicles. The proposed approach is based on the data-driven identification and uses a high-performance local model network (LMN) for estimation of the vehicle’s longitudinal velocity, lateral acceleration and yaw rate. The proposed LMN requires no pre-defined standard vehicle model and uses measurement data to identif...

forecasting of temperature is a very important in meteorology. air temperature prediction is of a concern in environment, industry and agriculture. temperature with precipitation are important factors in meteorology and are used in classification of climate. in this paper we want to predict average monthly temperature for chosen station of isfahan province. an artificial neural network is a pow...

Cells are regulated by networks of controllers having many targets, and targets affected by many controllers, in a "many-to-many" control structure. Here we study several of these bipartite (two-layer) networks. We analyze both naturally occurring biological networks (composed of transcription factors controlling genes, microRNAs controlling mRNA transcripts, and protein kinases controlling pro...
