classification ensemble, which uses the weighed polling of outputs, is the art of combining a set of basic classifiers for generating high-performance, robust and more stable results. this study aims to improve the results of identifying the persian handwritten letters using error correcting output coding (ecoc) ensemble method. furthermore, the feature selection is used to reduce the costs of ...

a robust and reliable quantitative structure-property relationship (qspr) study was established to forecast the melting points (mps)  of a diverse and long set including 250 drug-like compounds. based on the calculated descriptors by dragon software package, to detect homogeneities and to split the whole dataset into training and test sets, a principal component analysis (pca) approach was used...

forecasting of municipal waste generation is a critical challenge for decision making and planning,because proper planning and operation of a solid waste management system is intensively affected by municipal solid waste (msw) streams analysis and accurate predictions of solid waste quantities generated. due to dynamic and complexity of solid waste management system, models by artificial intell...

objective: international diabetes organization estimates that there are 285 million people worldwide who suffer from diabetes, and this figure is expected to increase to 450 million in next 20 years. according to statistics issued by the world health organization, diabetes is considered among ten leading causes of death in world and its prevalence in the population is growing.this paper deals w...

microarray data have an important role in identification and classification of the cancer tissues. having a few samples of microarrays in cancer researches is always one of the most concerns which lead to some problems in designing the classifiers. for this matter, preprocessing gene selection techniques should be utilized before classification to remove the noninformative genes from the microa...

background: numerous studies used microarray gene expression data to extract metastasis-driving gene signatures for the prediction of breast cancer relapse. however, the accuracy and generality of the previously introduced biomarkers are not acceptable for reliable usage in independent datasets. this inadequacy is attributed to ignoring gene interactions by simple feature selection methods, due...
