Investigation of drought event has a great importance in the natural resources and water resources management and planning. In this research, the effect of the climate change on drought characteristics in Khoy station was investigated using the HadCM3 model under B2 scenario. The statistical downscaling was executed using SDSM 4.2.9 and observed daily precipitation, observed predictors and...

Next-generation sequencing (NGS) technologies have revolutionized phylogenomics by decreasing the cost and time required to generate sequence data from multiple markers or whole genomes. Further, fragmented DNA of biological specimens collected decades ago can be sequenced with NGS, reducing need for collecting fresh specimens. Sequence capture, also known as anchored hybrid enrichment, is a me...

australian rainfall is related with numerous key climate predictors namely el-nino southern oscillation (enso), indian ocean dipole (iod) and southern annular mode (sam). some studies have tried to discover the effects of these climate predictors on rainfall variability of different parts of australia, particularly western australia, queensland and victoria. nonetheless, clear association betwe...

This paper studies theoretically and empirically a method of turning machinelearning algorithms into probabilistic predictors that automatically enjoys a property of validity (perfect calibration) and is computationally efficient. The price to pay for perfect calibration is that these probabilistic predictors produce imprecise (in practice, almost precise for large data sets) probabilities. Whe...

Many modern 3D range sensors, such as a Velodyne or Kinect, generate on the order of one million data points per second. For purposes of real-time semantic scene understanding, care must be made for efficient algorithms that not only run adequately fast, but also make the best use of the large amounts of data available. In this paper, we propose a novel point cloud classification scheme that 1)...

ontology is the main infrastructure of the semantic web which provides facilities for integration, searching and sharing of information on the web. development of ontologies as the basis of semantic web and their heterogeneities have led to the existence of ontology matching. by emerging large-scale ontologies in real domain, the ontology matching systems faced with some problem like memory con...

investigation of drought event has a great importance in the natural resources management and planning water resources management. in this research, the effect of the climate change on drought characteristics in northwest of iran was investigated using the hadcm3 model under a2 scenario. the statistical downscaling was executed using sdsm 4.2.9 and observed daily precipitation, observed predict...
