Nowadays, shovels play an important role in production of open pit mines and their failures result in significant production loss and considerable increase in maintenance costs. Therefore, reliability and risk analysis can help to improve production, productivity and reduce production costs. In this study, reliability of electric cable shovel of Chadormalu iron ore mine in Iran was investigated...

Deep Neural Networks (DNN) have become very popular for acoustic modeling due to the improvements found over traditional Gaussian Mixture Models (GMM). However, not many works have addressed the robustness of these systems under noisy conditions. Recently, the machine learning community has proposed new methods to improve the accuracy of DNNs by using techniques such as dropout and maxout. In t...

Dynamic Memory Networks (DMNs) have shown recent success in question answering. They have achieved state-of-the-art results of the Facebook bAbI dataset and performed well on sentiment analysis and visual question answering [1] [6]. In this project, we implement our own DMN in tensorflow and verify its performance quantitatively and qualitatively. We achieve very similar results to those achiev...

The two major brain networks, i.e., the default mode network (DMN) and the task positive network, typically reveal negative and variable connectivity in resting-state. In the present study, we examined whether the connectivity between the DMN and different components of the task positive network were modulated by other brain regions by using physiophysiological interaction (PPI) on resting-stat...

the term “system” is defined as «elements standing interaction». this implies that a change in any given element should bring about changes in other elements of the system and thus may be used to identify the boundaries of a system. a system can be a machine, a man, or a community. each of these may be part of a greater system (super system) or include several smaller systems (subsystems). syst...
