We introduce an objective function-based fuzzy clustering technique that incorporates linear combinations of attributes in the distance function. The main application eld of our method is image processing where a comparison pixel by pixel is usually not adequate, but the environmnet of a pixel or groups of pixels characterize important properties of an image or parts of it. In addition, our app...

Clustering helps with reengineering by gathering the software entities into meaningful and independent groups. The entities here can be any FAMIX entities, be it classes, methods, attributes etc. The affinity between two entities is calculated through the absolute difference of their properties and properties of the dependencies between the two entities; all the properties also have assigned we...

maharlou-bakhtegan catchment in the southern part of iran is faced with water scarcity.this problem is exacerbated by environmental degradation, climate change effects, mismanagementof water resources, along with a major dependence of water demand supplies on the limitedgroundwater resources. in this study, a combined approach of dpsir model along with the scenarioanalysis was employed to deriv...

In this paper, we present formalization and an implementation of a linear hashing algorithm in nested transaction environment to handle large amount of data with increased concurrency. Nested transactions allow parallel execution of transactions, and handle transaction aborts in our system. First, We formalize the nested transaction model in a linear has structure environment using wellknown I/...

This paper proposes an adaptive multipath control technique using window size controlled wide null creation technique (WNCT) for the adaptive array antenna (AAA) systems in rich scattering channel conditioned broadband wireless communication systems. In the proposed scheme, deep null creation technique (DNCT) and WNCT are employed to create antenna directivity for transmission so that unwanted ...
