In  this  paper a  non-linear  model  with  fractional  order  is  presented  for  analyzing  and  controlling the  spread  of  HIV virus.  Both  the  disease-free  equilibrium and the endemic equilibrium are  found  and  their  stability is  discussed. The basic reproduction number , which is a function of the constant parameters in the model, plays an essential  role in the stability of  the ...

the speech is an easily accessible signal which clearly represents the characteristics of larynx and vocal folds. therefore, application of some proper machine learning algorithms on a small part of a recorded speech signal may help in non-invasive diagnosing of vocal fold diseases. since there are some experimental evidences that suggest the existence of chaotic behavior in speech production s...

Dynamic game theory is applied to analyze the timber market in northern Iran as a duopsony. The Nash equilibrium and the dynamic properties of the system based on marginal adjustments are determined. When timber is sold, the different mills use mixed strategies to give sealed bids. It is found that the decision probability combination of the different mills follow a special form of attractor an...

Attractor networks, which map an input space to a discrete output space, are useful for pattern completion. However, designing a net to have a given set of attractors is notoriously tricky; training procedures are CPU intensive and often produce spurious afuactors and ill-conditioned attractor basins. These difficulties occur because each connection in the network participates in the encoding o...

Telecommunication network topologies are changing nowadays. The core telecommunication networks are based on fiber optics infrastructure. WDM technology is used to transmit multiple flows of traffic over a single fiber. Virtual network topology (VNT) is used to route IP traffic over WDM networks. VNT control system must be adaptive to traffic changes and dynamically reconfigure VNT. Langevin eq...

This paper presents results from lesion experiments on a modular attractor neural network model of semantic access. Real picture data forms the basis of perceptual input to the model. An ultrametric attractor space is used to represent semantic memory and is implemented using a biologically plausible variant of the Hopfield model. Lesioned performance is observed to be in agreement with neurops...
