This article is a conceptual exploration of Ezafe in Modern Persian. I will consider cases where Ezafe seems to be conceptually non-neutral. In certain cases of the ‘X-e Y’ construction, X and Y can change their places with a shift in meaning while they are apparently frozen in their positions in other cases of Ezafe construction. The question to address here is if the Ezafe element -e marks an...

Russian ( Acipenser gueldenstaedtii), Persian ( A. persicus) and Siberian ( A. baerii) sturgeons are closely related 'Ponto-Caspian' species. Investigation of their population structure is an important problem, the solution of which determines measures for conservation of these species. According to previous studies, 'baerii-like' mitotypes were found in the Caspian Sea among 35% of Russian stu...

This study was conducted at the Bukhara breeding centre (Ouzbekistan, Central Asia) on Persian gazelles (Gazella subgutturosa subgutturosa) and at Thumammah (Saudi Arabia) on sand gazelles (Gazella subgutturosa marica). Plasma prolactin (PRL) and progesterone were determined in groups of females. Because these females were under two different photoperiods (20 degrees N in Saudi Arabia and 40 de...

The Iranian, or Persian, calendar is solar, with the particularity that the year is defined by two successive, apparent passages of the Sun through the vernal (spring) equinox. It is based on precise astronomical observations, and moreover uses a sophisticated intercalation system, which makes it more accurate than its younger European counterpart, the Gregorian calendar. It is currently used i...

over the past few decades, scientists have paid special attention to studying novel and natural hydrocolloids due to the growing demand for ready meals, public awareness on the importance of natural fibers in daily diets, and their wide range of application, especially in foods, pharmaceuticals and herbal medicine. moreover, natural hydrocolloids are preferred to biotechnologic ones (e.g., gell...

In this paper, we address the shortage of evaluation benchmarks on Persian (Farsi) language by creating and making available a new benchmark for English to Persian Cross Lingual Word Sense Disambiguation (CL-WSD). In creating the benchmark, we follow the format of the SemEval 2013 CL-WSD task, such that the introduced tools of the task can also be applied on the benchmark. In fact, the new benc...

Optical character recognition of cursive scripts present a number of challenging problems in both segmentation and recognition processes and this attracts many researches in the field of machine learning. This paper presents a novel approach based on a combination of MLP and SVM to design a trainable OCR for Persian/Arabic cursive documents. The implementation results on a comprehensive databas...
