FAO Blaney-Criddle has been generally an accepted method for estimating reference crop evapotranspiration. In this regard, it is inevitable to estimate the b-factor provided by Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) of United Nations Irrigation Drainage Paper number 24. study, five soft computing methods, namely random forest (RF), M5 model tree (M5), support vector regression with polynomial ...

We consider the low-energy limit of the two-dimensional theory on k M2-branes suspended between a straight M5-brane and a curved M5-brane. We argue that it is described by an N=(2, 2) supersymmetric gauge theory with no matter fields but with a non-trivial twisted superpotential, and also by an N=(2, 2) supersymmetric Landau-Ginzburg model, such that the (twisted) superpotentials are determined...

In view of pollution prediction modeling, the study adopts homogenous (random forest, bagging, and additive regression) and heterogeneous (voting) ensemble classifiers to predict the atmospheric concentration of Sulphur dioxide. For model validation, results were compared against widely known single base classifiers such as support vector machine, multilayer perceptron, linear regression and re...

We consider the low-energy limit of the two-dimensional theory on multiple M2-branes suspended between a flat M5-brane and a curved M5brane. We argue that it is described by an N=(2, 2) supersymmetric LandauGinzburg model with the superpotential determined by the shape of the curved M5-branes, which flows in the low-energy limit to a Kazama-Suzuki coset model. We provide evidence by studying gr...

When using machine learning to predict a class with continuous numeric value, there are several issues. Only few machine-learning approaches capable of doing so, but it remains one the most difficult jobs do. In this paper, we show how use M5 Model Tree, an approach that can handle data. This method is stepwise procedure employs linear functions at leaf nodes any created decision tree inducer (...

Partial 1-trees are undirected graphs of treewidth at most one. Similarly, partial 1-DAGs are directed graphs of KellyWidth at most two. It is well-known that an undirected graph is a partial 1-tree if and only if it has no K3 minor. In this paper, we generalize this characterization to partial 1-DAGs. We show that partial 1-DAGs are characterized by three forbidden directed minors, K3, N4 and M5.

It has been shown that osteopontin (OPN) plays a pivotal role in the pathogenesis of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). However, the molecular mechanism of OPN action is yet to be elucidated. Splenic monocytes obtained from arthritic mice exhibited a significant capacity for cell migration toward thrombin-cleaved OPN but not toward full-length OPN. Migratory monocytes expressed alpha9 and alpha4 integr...

In the Berkooz-Douglas matrix model of M theory in the presence of longitudinal M5-brane, we investigate the effective dynamics of the system by considering the longitudinal M5-brane as the background and the spherical M5-brane related with the other space dimensions as the probe brane. Due to there exists the background field strength provided by the source of the longitudinal M5-brane, an ope...

In this paper, we analyse the main factors explaining profitability (ROA) of Microfinance Institutions (MFIs) in Peru from 2011 to 2107. We apply three wrapper techniques asample 168 Peruvians MFIs and 69 attributes obtained MIX Market database. After running algorithms M5?, knearest neighbours (KNN) Random Forest, find that M5? algorithm provides best fit for predicting ROA. Particularly, key ...

To improve butanol selectivity, Clostridium acetobutylicum M5(pIMP1E1AB) was constructed by adhE1-ctfAB complementation of C. acetobutylicum M5, a derivative strain of C. acetobutylicum ATCC 824, which does not produce solvents due to the lack of megaplasmid pSOL1. The gene products of adhE1-ctfAB catalyze the formation of acetoacetate and ethanol/butanol with acid re-assimilation in solventoge...
