forest types mapping, is one of the most necessary elements in the forest management and silviculture treatments. traditional methods such as field surveys are almost time-consuming and cost-intensive. improvements in remote sensing data sources and classification –estimation methods are preparing new opportunities for obtaining more accurate forest biophysical attributes maps. this research co...

finding frequent patterns plays a key role in exploring association patterns, correlation, and many other interesting relationships that are applicable in tdb. several association rule mining algorithms such as apriori, fp-growth, and eclat have been proposed in the literature. fp-growth algorithm construct a tree structure from transaction database and recursively traverse this tree to extract...

background: rna molecules play many important regulatory, catalytic and structuralroles in the cell, and rna secondary structure prediction with pseudoknots is one themost important problems in biology. an rna pseudoknot is an element of the rna secondary structure in which bases of a single-stranded loop pair with complementary basesoutside the loop. modeling these nested structures (pseudokno...

In this paper, we consider the step fixed-charge transportation problem (FCTP) in which a step fixed cost, sometimes called a setup cost, is incurred if another related variable assumes a nonzero value. In order to solve the problem, two metaheuristic, a spanning tree-based genetic algorithm (GA) and a spanning tree-based memetic algorithm (MA), are developed for this NP-hard problem. For compa...
