a profile hidden markov model (phmm) is widely used in assigning protein sequences to protein families. in this model, the hidden states only depend on the previous hidden state and observations are independent given hidden states. in other words, in the phmm, only the information of the left side of a hidden state is considered. however, it makes sense that considering the information of the b...

in this paper, an efficient fault-tolerant routing algorithm for mobile ad-hoc networks (manets) is presented. the proposed algorithm increases the network fault-tolerance using natural redundancy of ad-hoc networks. this algorithm is carried out in two stages; 1) the selection of backup nodes 2) the selection of backup route(s). in the first stage, the proposed algorithm chooses nodes with the...

A well-known clustering algorithm is K-means. This algorithm, besides advantages such as high speed and ease of employment, suffers from the problem of local optima. In order to overcome this problem, a lot of studies have been done in clustering. This paper presents a hybrid Extended Cuckoo Optimization Algorithm (ECOA) and K-means (K), which is called ECOA-K. The COA algorithm has advantages ...

classical lbp such as complexity and high dimensions of feature vectors that make it necessary to apply dimension reduction processes. in this paper, we introduce an improved lbp algorithm to solve these problems that utilizes fast pca algorithm for reduction of vector dimensions of extracted features. in other words, proffer method (fast pca+lbp) is an improved lbp algorithm that is extracted ...

neural network is one of the most widely used algorithms in the field of machine learning, on the other hand, neural network training is a complicated and important process. supervised learning needs to be organized to reach the goal as soon as possible. a supervised learning algorithm analyzes the training data and produces an inferred function, which can be used for mapping new examples.  hen...

this paper presents a new audio encryption algorithm based on permutation and residue number system. in the current approach, signal samples are combined with residue number system through permutation; therefore, a specific noise is generated. then, the audio signal is combined with the noise, generated by the algorithm, to produce a silence signal. for this purpose, the algorithm uses a predef...

in this research, an integrated inventory problem is formulated for a single-vendor multiple-retailer supply chain that works according to the vendor managed inventory policy. the model is derived based on the economic order quantity in which shortages with penalty costs at the retailers` level is permitted. as predicting customer demand is the most important problem in inventory systems and th...

nowadays, due to inherent complexity of real optimization problems, it has always been a challenging issue to develop a solution algorithm to these problems. single row facility layout problem (srflp) is a np-hard problem of arranging a number of rectangular facilities with varying length on one side of a straight line with aim of minimizing the weighted sum of the distance between all facility...
