This article suggests a new clustering forecasting system to integrate change-point detection and artificial neural networks. The basic concept of proposed model is to obtain intervals divided by change point, to identify them as change-point groups, and to involve them in the forecasting model. The proposed models consist of two stages. The first stage, the clustering neural network modeling s...

Printed Circuit Boards (PCBs) are extensively used in diverse electronic products today. The placement process tends to be a bottleneck in a PCB assembly line, and many SMT PCB assembly researches focused on improving the process perspective of the machine operations. This research proposed a BPN data mining model to analyze the effect of a head calibration process on the defects of placement o...

Four ruthenium(II) complexes, BPT, BPN, BPPT, and BPPN, have been prepared and characterized by (1)H NMR, (13)C NMR, high resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS), elemental analysis, and X-ray crystallography. All the complexes incorporate a pyridyl unit on the terpyridine-type or N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) ligand and the pyridyl unit can be protonated upon addition of 1.0 M HCl in diethyl ether....

When visual features in the periphery are close together they become difficult to recognize: something is present but it is unclear what. This is called "crowding". Here we investigated sensitivity to features in highly familiar shapes (letters) by applying spatial distortions. In Experiment 1, observers detected which of four peripherally presented (8 deg of retinal eccentricity) target letter...

This study aims to formulate the Center for Human Resource Development (PPSDM) strategy of Ministry Agrarian and Spatial Planning/National Land Agency (ATR/BPN) in developing competence HR personnel based on Corporate University strategy. uses a qualitative descriptive method with data analysis using Miles Huberman model. The results showed that implementing ATR/BPN corporate university was str...

Unlike trypsin-like serine proteases having only one conspicuous binding pocket in the active site, subtilisin BPN' has two such pockets, the S1 and S4 pockets, which accommodate the P1 and P4 residues of ligands (after Schechter and Berger notation) respectively. Using computer graphics, the geometrical nature of the two pockets was carefully examined and strategies for site-directed mutagenes...

In the process of inter-domain handover, according to the partner-based hierarchical mobile IPv6 protocol (PHMIPv6), the longer configuration time for a new care-of-address may cause an interrupt in the current wireless connections and cause higher handover latency and packet loss rate. This paper proposes an improved handover mechanism based on PHMIPv6, named B-CDHO. A fPN and bPN are defined ...

Fuzzy Counter Propagation Neural Network (FCPN) controller design is developed, for a class of nonlinear dynamical systems. In this process, the weight connecting between the instar and outstar, that is, input-hidden and hidden-output layer, respectively, is adjusted by using Fuzzy Competitive Learning (FCL). FCL paradigm adopts the principle of learning, which is used to calculate Best Matched...

The aim of this work was to determine 137Cs and 40K radioactivities in soil samples taken from the Babia Góra National Park (BPN) in south Poland. The cluster analysis (CA) and principal component analysis (PCA) were used to discuss the obtained data. 10 cm thick soil cores were collected from the BPN area. Each sample was divided into three sub-samples. The samples were dried, homogenized and ...

Atomic force microscopy (AFM) was used for visualization of a nano-oxidation technique performed on diamond-like carbon (DLC) thin film. Experiments of the nano-oxidation technique of the DLC thin film include those on nano-oxidation points and nano-oxidation lines. The feature sizes of the DLC thin film, including surface morphology, depth, and width, were explored after application of a nano-...
