The notion of –ideal is introduced in lattice implication algebras. Firstly, the equivalent conditions of –ideals and –ideals are given in lattice implication algebras. Then the proposition of –ideal is investigated in lattice implication algebras. Next, the relations between...

Although the individuals' transport behavioural modelling is a complex task, it can produce a notable social and economic impact. In this paper, Fuzzy Cognitive Maps are explored to represent the behaviour and operation of such complex systems. An automatic approach to extract mental representations...

In this paper, we have studied the constrained version of the fuzzy minimum spanning tree problem. Costs of all the edges are considered as fuzzy numbers. Using the measure, a generalization of credibility measure, the problem is formulated as chance-constrained programming problem and dependent-chance...

In recent years a lot of attention and efforts have been dedicated on optimizing the design and quality of coffee pods. These would be applicable on professional as well as on household machines such as Senseo or Nestle. By providing a new method to describe the mechanisms of the brewing process within...

Many previous studies have shown that class classification can be greatly improved by kernel Fisher discriminant analysis (KDA) technique. However, KDA only captures global geometrical structure and disregards local geometrical structure of the data. In this paper, we propose a new feature extraction...

In this paper we present a novel approach to produce benthic habitat maps from sea floor images in Derwent estuary. We have developed a step–by–step segmentation method to separate sea–grass, sand, and rock from the sea floor image. The sea–grass was separated first using color...

A novel dual level differential pulse code modulation (DL-DPCM) is proposed for lossless compression of medical images. The DL-DPCM consists of a linear DPCM followed by a nonlinear DPCM namely, context adaptive switching neural network predictor (CAS-NNP). The CAS-NNP adaptively switches between three...

A DE approach based on a new measure of population diversity and a novel parameter control mechanism is proposed with the aim of introducing a good behavior of the algorithm. The ratio of the new defined population diversity of different generations is equal to that of the population variance, therefore...

This paper puts forward a new method of alphanumeric character recognition based on BP neural network classification and combined features. This method firstly establishes three BP networks respectively for three categories of characters which are classified according to their Euler numbers, with the...

Hydraulic turbine runner has a complex structure, and traditional location methods can't meet its requirement. This paper describes a source location of cracks in turbine blades by combining kernel independent component analysis (KICA) with wavelet neural network (WNN). The research shows that the location...

The paper first offers a parallel between two approaches to conceptual clustering, namely formal concept analysis (augmented with the introduction of new operators) and bipartite graph analysis. It is shown that a formal concept (as defined in formal concept analysis) corresponds to the idea of a maximal...

Traditional software homology detection techniques based on text, token, abstract syntax tree in many cases get the real similarity inaccurately when they work alone. In this paper, a synthesis algorithm based on Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) is proposed, which combines text, token, syntax tree comparison...

Visual attention mechanism is one of the important techniques in computer vision field, and it can increase the effectiveness of computer image information processing. Biogeography-Based Optimization (BBO) is a bioinspired algorithm for global optimization, searching for the global optimum mainly through...

Problem domain information extraction is a critical issue in many real-world optimization problems. Increasing the repertoire of techniques available in evolutionary algorithms with this purpose is fundamental for extending the applicability of these algorithms. In this paper we introduce a unifying...

Efficient CBIR systems are based on three things, (1) how they represent the repository images in the form of signature; (2) how they measure the similarity of the database images with query image, (3) how they retrieve the semantically similar images in response of a query image. The paper is focusing...
