A hybrid approach using entropy and TOPSIS to select key drivers for a successful and sustainable lean construction implementation
( Public Library of Science , 2020 , Article)Successful implementation of the lean concept as a sustainable approach in the construction industry requires the identification of critical drivers in lean construction. Despite this significance, the number of in-depth ... -
A reservoir bubble point pressure prediction model using the Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS) technique with trend analysis
( Public Library of Science , 2022 , Article)The bubble point pressure (Pb) could be obtained from pressure-volume-temperature (PVT) measurements; nonetheless, these measurements have drawbacks such as time, cost, and difficulties associated with conducting experiments ... -
A robust fuzzy logic-based model for predicting the critical total drawdown in sand production in oil and gas wells
( Public Library of Science , 2021 , Article)Sand management is essential for enhancing the production in oil and gas reservoirs. The critical total drawdown (CTD) is used as a reliable indicator of the onset of sand production; hence, its accurate prediction is very ... -
Automatic detection of diseased tomato plants using thermal and stereo visible light images
( Public Library of Science , 2015 , Article)Accurate and timely detection of plant diseases can help mitigate the worldwide losses experienced by the horticulture and agriculture industries each year. Thermal imaging provides a fast and non-destructive way of scanning ... -
Automatic detection of regions in spinach canopies responding to soil moisture deficit using combined visible and thermal imagery
( Public Library of Science , 2014 , Article)Thermal imaging has been used in the past for remote detection of regions of canopy showing symptoms of stress, including water deficit stress. Stress indices derived from thermal images have been used as an indicator of ... -
Bayesian Hierarchical Clustering for Studying Cancer Gene Expression Data with Unknown Statistics
( Public Library of Science , 2013 , Article)Clustering analysis is an important tool in studying gene expression data. The Bayesian hierarchical clustering (BHC) algorithm can automatically infer the number of clusters and uses Bayesian model selection to improve ... -
Employment of single-diode model to elucidate the variations in photovoltaic parameters under different electrical and thermal conditions
( Public Library of Science , 2017 , Article)In this research work, numerical simulations are performed to correlate the photovoltaic parameters with various internal and external factors influencing the performance of solar cells. Single-diode modeling approach is ... -
Functional connectivity alterations in epilepsy from resting-state functional MRI
( Public Library of Science , 2015 , Article)The study of functional brain connectivity alterations induced by neurological disorders and their analysis from resting state functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (rfMRI) is generally considered to be a challenging task. ... -
