In this study, the performance of three different self organization feature map (SOFM) network models denoted as SOFM1, SOFM2, and SOFM3 having neighborhood shapes, namely, SquareKohonenful, LineKohonenful, and DiamondKohenenful, respectively, to predict the critical factor of safety (Fs) of a widely-used artificial slope subjected to earthquake forces was investigated and compared. For this pu...

[1] Inverse weighted distance and regression nonexact techniques were evaluated for interpolating methods snow water equivalent (SWE) across the entire Colorado River Basin of the western United States. A 1-km spacing was used for the gridding of snow telemetry (SNOTEL) measurements for the years 1993, 1998, and 1999, which on average, represented higher than average, average, and lower than av...

porosity is one of the fundamental petrophysical properties that should be evaluated for hydrocarbon bearing reservoirs. it is a vital factor in precise understanding of reservoir quality in a hydrocarbon field. log data are exceedingly crucial information in petroleum industries, for many of hydrocarbon parameters are obtained by virtue of petrophysical data. there are three main petrophysical...

this paper presents a new multi-sensor data fusion method based on the combination of wavelettransform (wt) and extended kalman filter (ekf). input data are first filtered by a wavelettransform via daubechies wavelet “db4” functions and the filtered data are then fused based onvariance weights in terms of minimum mean square error. the fused data are finally treated byextended kalman filter for...
