background: fetal electrocardiography is a developing field that provides valuable information on the fetal health during pregnancy. by early diagnosis and treatment of fetal heart problems, more survival chance is given to the infant. objective: here, we extract fetal ecg from maternal abdominal recordings and detect r-peaks in order to recognize fetal heart rate. on the next step, we find a b...

background: in order to check the practicality of classification of universities of medical sciences (umss) based on their infrastructures, and scientific contributions, this study explored the most appropriate indicators to measure the size and productivity of umss. methods: in the first phase, we approached a group of experts who had a deep experience in the management of umss and in the mini...

the aim of this study was to propose a method for improving the power of recognition and classification of thromboembolic syndrome based on the analysis of ‎ gene expression data using artificial neural networks. the studied method was performed on a dataset which contained data about 117 patients admitted to a hospital in durham in 2009. of all the studied patients, 66 patients were suffering ...

an ideal fusion method preserves the spectral information in fused image without spatial distortion. the pca is believed to be a well-known pan-sharpening approach and being widely used for its efficiency and high spatial resolution. however, it can distort the spectral characteristics of multispectral images. the current paper tries to present a new fusion method based on the same concept. in ...

the field study was conducted in one district of educational-experimental forest at tehran university (kheirood-kenar forest) in the north of iran. eighty-five soil profiles were dug in the site of study and several chemical and physical soil properties were considered. these factors included: soil ph, soil texture, bulk density, organic carbon, total nitrogen, extractable phosphorus and depth ...

spatial patterns are useful descriptors of the horizontal structure in a plant population and may change over time as the individual components of the population grow or die out. but, whether this is the case for desert woody annuals is largely unknown. in the present investigation, the variations in spatial patterns of tribulus terrestris during different pulse events in semi-arid area of the ...

frost is one of the atmospheric phenomena which seriously threaten crop production. it also causes numerousaccidents in mountainous roads. in this research the spatial synoptic classification ssc method was employed toclassify the type of air masses. for the classification, such meteorological data as: temperature, dew point, mean sealevel pressure, cloudiness, direction and speed of wind were ...
