The use of the intelligent reflecting surface (IRS) is being considered for wireless communications in high-frequency band. For prediction IRS reflection patterns, a method that accounts receiver movement by treating partially observed channel estimates as time series from current to certain period past has been studied. However, does not take into account speed receiver, which degrades perform...

Major dependency on fossil energy resources and emission of greenhouse gases are common problems that have a very harmful impact human communities. Thus, the use renewable resources, such as wind power, has become strong alternative to solve this problem. Nevertheless, because intermittence unpredictability energy, an accurate speed forecasting is challenging research subject. This paper addres...

This is a synopsis of the presentation that I gave at the MIT LIDS Paths Ahead symposium in November 2009.

traffic prediction systems can play an essential role in intelligent transportation systems (its). prediction and patterns comprehensibility of traffic characteristic parameters such as average speed, flow, and travel time could be beneficiary both in advanced traveler information systems (atis) and in its traffic control systems. however, due to their complex nonlinear patterns, these systems ...

Central issues concerning protein structure prediction have been highlighted by the recently published summary of the fourth community-wide protein structure prediction experiment (CASP4). Although sequence/structure alignment remains the bottleneck in comparative modeling, there has been substantial progress in fully automated remote homolog detection and in de novo structure prediction. Signi...
