the objective of this study was to classify the shoosh aquifer to several zones with different water quality in khuzestan province, iran. in this regard, the performance of classification methods (discriminant function and cluster analysis) for the classification of groundwater based on the level of pollution with an emphasis on the problem of over-fitting in training data were considered. an o...

The Modified Quadratic Discriminant Function was first proposed by Kimura et al to improve the performance of Quadratic Discriminant Function, which can be seen as a dot-product method by eigen-decompostion of the covariance matrix of each class. Therefore, it is possible to expand MQDF to high dimension space by kernel trick. This paper presents a new kernel-based method to pattern recognition...

In this paper, a modified Fisher linear discriminant analysis (FLDA) is proposed and aims to not only overcome the rank limitation of FLDA, that is, at most only finding a discriminant vector for 2-class problem based on Fisher discriminant criterion, but also relax singularity of the within-class scatter matrix and finally improves classification performance of FLDA. Experiments on nine public...

In parallel to the increase in the number of credit card transactions, the financial losses due to fraud have also increased. Thus, the popularity of credit card fraud detection has been increased both for academicians and banks. Many supervised learning methods were introduced in credit card fraud literature some of which bears quite complex algorithms. As compared to complex algorithms which ...

understanding the performance and role of each formation in a petroleum play is crucial for the efficient and precise exploration and exploitation of trapped hydrocarbons in a sedimentary basin. the lorestan basin is one of the most important hydrocarbon basins of iran, and it includes various oil-prone potential source rocks and reservoir rocks. previous geochemical studies of the basin were n...
