= convex hull of {a0, . . . , an}. The points a0, . . . , an are geometrically independent if a1 − a0, . . . , an − a0 is a linearly independent set over R. Note that this is independent of the order of a0, . . . , an. In this case, we say that the simplex a0 . . . an is n -dimensional, or an n -simplex. Given a point Pn i=1 λiai belonging to an n-simplex, we say it has barycentric coordinates ...

In this paper, based on our previous research on simplex genetic algorithm, we put forward an adaptive approach for the self-adaptation of the percentage of simplex. According to the average fitness of those individuals generated by simplex operator in a certain generation, a set of rules is designed to adaptively adjust the simplex percentage within a certain range. This helps the algorithm al...

herpes simplex virus (hsv) is one of the common pathogenic viruses of humans bing. this study aimed to determin anti-herpes virus activity of mentha piperita extracts in vitro. mentha piperita extracts can inhibit hsv infection when the cells treated before viral adsorbtion. hsv-1 were also inhibited by menthol after viral adsorption. hsv-1 viral particles were directly inhibited and viral yiel...

purpose: the main purpose of this study was to evaluate the prevalence of herpes simplex virus 1 and 2 (hsv-1 and hsv-2), varicella-zoster virus and adenovirus associated with conjunctivitis in swab samples of patients who referred to eye specialist hospitals in tehran. methods: in this cross-sectional study, swab samples from patients with acute conjunctivitis during the first sixth months of ...

Patients undergoing penetrating keratoplasty for prior herpes simplex keratitis (group A) and corneal disease unrelated to herpes simplex (group B) were investigated to assess whether the cornea is a site for herpes simplex viral latency. All patients were seropositive for herpes simplex viral antibody. Virus was isolated from the tear film postoperatively in one patient and on cocultivation fr...

In recent years, persistent homology (PH) and topological data analysis (TDA) have gained increasing attention in the fields of shape recognition, image analysis, machine learning, computer vision, computational biology, brain functional networks, financial haze detection, etc. this article, we will focus on stock markets demonstrate how TDA can be useful regard. We first explain signatures tha...

The simplex algorithm computes the simplex multipliers by solving a system (or two triangular systems) at each iteration. This note offers an efficient approach to updating the simplex multipliers in conjunction with the Bartels-Golub and Forrest-Tomlin updates for LU factors of the basis. It only solves one triangular system. The approach was implemented within and tested against MINOS 5.51 on...

This paper introduces a new shortest path simplex pivot rule choosing a subset of non-basic arcs to simultaneously enter into the basis. The term multiple pivot for this operation is used. From this concept, a generic shortest path simplex algorithm with multiple pivots is described. In addition, a simplex multiple pivot rule is provided to design a shortest path simplex algorithm requiring O(n...

Simplex meshes are simply connected meshes that are topologically dual of triangulations In a pre vious work we have introduced the simplex mesh representation for performing recognition of par tially occluded smooth objects In this paper we present a physically based approach for recovering three dimensional objects based on the geometry of simplex meshes Elastic behavior is modelled by lo cal...
