Different techniques are used to model the relationship between temperatures, dew point and relative humidity. Gene expression programming is capable of modelling complex realities with great accuracy, allowing at the same time, the extraction of knowledge from the evolved models compared to other learning algorithms. We aim to use Gene Expression Programming for modelling of dew point. General...

Background: Although advances in cancer therapy continue to develop, the overall survival rate is poor for some cancer cases. The search for a new adjuvant strategy is the focus of cancer treatment. There is some evidence suggesting a change in the mechanism of cell function by a change in the content of deuterium in the medium. So, the aim of this study was to investigate the ...

Soil moisture is an important yet unobserved reservoir of the hydrologic cycle linked to the spatial and temporal variability of precipitation [1]. The brightness temperature of the land surface at microwave wavelengths is sensitive to soil moisture. Terrestrial brightness temperature also depends on the temperature of the soil and vegetation canopy as well as other canopy and soil properties [...

Stroke welcomes Letters to the Editor and will publish them, if suitable, as space permits. They should not exceed 1000 words (excluding references) and may be subject to editing or abridgment. Please submit letters in duplicate, typed double-spaced. Include a fax number for the corresponding author. To the Editor. Like Lejeune and associates, 1 we have found an association between low environm...

We present a dew point temperature sensor with the thermal detection of condensed water on a thin membrane, fabricated by silicon micromachining. The membrane (600 × 600 ×∼1 μm3) is part of a silicon chip and contains a heating element as well as a thermopile for temperature measurement. By dynamically heating the membrane and simultaneously analyzing the transient increase of its temperature i...

Spatial climate datasets of 1981-2010 long-term mean monthly average dew point and minimum and maximum vapor pressure deficit were developed for the conterminous United States at 30-arcsec (~800m) resolution. Interpolation of long-term averages (twelve monthly values per variable) was performed using PRISM (Parameter-elevation Relationships on Independent Slopes Model). Surface stations availab...

In order to realize the forecasting of the UHV DC insulator's pollution conditions, we introduced a PSOBP algorithm. A BP neural network (BPNN) with leakage current, temperature, relative humidity and dew point as input neurons, and ESDD as output neuron was built to forecast the ESDD. The PSO was used to optimize the the BPNN, which had great improved the convergence rate of the BP neural netw...
