hepatitis c virus (hcv) is a major global health problem and one of the most common causes of chronic liver diseases. the current study was carried out to investigate the ability of high resolution melting (hrm) method in hcv genotyping. 40 hcv-positive sera with unknown and 12 sera with known hcv genotypes were collected from different clinical laboratories in tehran as well as rasht in north ...

we compare performance of adaptive schemes which are based on radial-basis functions and kalman filters for fast extraction of auditory evoked potentials. moreover, we propose a new method based on evoked potential modeling in the kalman filter framework, which can improve the accuracy compared to the existing methods. simulation results show that adaptive schemes and the kalman method are not ...

The susceptibility to Terbacil of six randomly selected strawberry cultivars (‘Aromas’, ‘Chambly’, ‘Harmonie’, ‘Kent’, ‘La Clé des Champs’ and ‘Seascape’) was analysed using chlorophyll florescence (CF) in comparison with visual observation, in an attempt to develop a method for use in a breeding programme to select herbicide-resistant strawberry lines. Terbacil was applied at one of five rates...

In this paper, we present a novel algorithm for VANET using cloud computing. We accomplish processing, routing and traffic control in a centralized and parallel way by adding one or more server to the network. Each car or node is considered a Client, in such a manner that routing, traffic control, getting information from client and data processing and storing are performed by one or more serve...

In this paper, system planning network is formulated with mixed-integer programming. Two meta-heuristic procedures are considered for this problem. The cost function of this problem consists of the capital investment cost in discrete form, the cost of transmission losses and the power generation costs. The DC load flow equations for the network are embedded in the constraints of the mathematica...

Several 2-ketomethylquinolines were synthesized by heating, 2-methyl quinoline with acyl chloride in the presence of AlCl3 Contrary to reported procedures, this method was accomplished at a short time obtaining good results.

This paper proposes a new method for rejecting the Continuous Wave Interferences (CWI) in the Global Positioning System (GPS) receivers. The proposed filter is made by cascading an adaptive Finite Impulse Response (FIR) filter and a Wavelet Packet Transform (WPT) based filter. Although adaptive FIR filters are easy to implement and have a linear phase, they create self-noise in the rejection of...

The development of numerical techniques now permits us to analyze complex structures such as dielectric resonator filters and planar passive elements for coplanar monolithic microwave integrated circuits. In this paper, we describe a novel method for designing dielectric resonator filters. Then a Chebychev band pass filter is designed by coaxially placing high-Q TM01Q dielectric resonators ...

In this study, we propose a three-stage weighted sum method for identifying the group ranks of alternatives. In the first stage, a rank matrix, similar to the cross-efficiency matrix, is obtained by computing the individual rank position of each alternative based on importance weights. In the second stage, a secondary goal is defined to limit the vector of weights since the vector of weights ob...

Hepatitis C virus (HCV) is a major global health problem and one of the most common causes of chronic liver diseases. The current study was carried out to investigate the ability of High Resolution Melting (HRM) method in HCV genotyping. 40 HCV-Positive sera with unknown and 12 sera with known HCV genotypes were collected from different clinical laboratories in Tehran as well as Rasht in north ...
