Introduction: Gail model is one of the most important models for the evaluation of breast cancer risk between US white females. According to genetic diversity, there is a possibility of affecting the efficiency of the Gail model in risk assessment of breast cancer among Iranian populations. In this study, the Gail model efficiency in specifying the risk of breast cancer in Iranian population wa...

This paper describes a hybrid stock trading system based on Genetic Network Programming (GNP) and Mean Conditional Value-at-Risk Model (GNP–CVaR). The proposed method, combining the advantages of evolutionary algorithms and statistical model, has provided useful tools to construct portfolios and generate effective stock trading strategies for investors with different risk-attitudes. Simulation ...

wofost is a crop growth simulation model which can simulate crop growth and yield components of annual crops dynamically in the various stages of growth period. some parts of the model outputs (crop yield and crop water requirements) can be used in irrigation planning and management of water resources. in this study, a field research was carried out in a randomized complete block design with th...

this research aims at presenting a consolidated model of data envelopment analysis (dea) technique and value engineering to select the best manufacturing methods for gate valve covers and ranking the methods using topsis.to do so, efficiency evaluation indices were selected based on the value engineering approach and different manufacturing methods were evaluated using dea technique.finally, ef...

To optimize contributions of uncertain input variables on the statistical parameter of given model, e.g., reliability, global reliability sensitivity analysis (GRSA) provides an appropriate tool to quantify the effects. However, it may be difficult to calculate global reliability sensitivity indices compared with the traditional global sensitivity indices of model output, because statistical pa...

breeding based on selection indices is an effective method for improving complex traits such as yield. to assess the efficiency of different selection methods, 50 genotypes of tall fescue (festuca arundinace) were evaluated under two moisture conditions including full irrigation (normal environment) and deficit irrigation (stress environment). the experiment was conducted according to a randomi...
