<Para ID="Par1">A multi-objective regional calibration technique that incorporates a sequential regionalisation procedure was introduced and evaluated based on 12 catchments in Korea. This study was focused on investigating the impacts of the predictive capacity of a rainfall-runoff model for multiple...</para>

Unbalanced data classification has been a long-standing issue in the field of medical vision science. We introduced the methods of support vector machines (SVM) with active learning (AL) to improve prediction of unbalanced classes in the medical imaging field. A standard SVM algorithm with four...

Closed-End Fund (CEF) discounts have intrigued researchers for decades. Of the many explanations offered, the behavioural framework of Lee <italic>et al</italic>. (1991), which posits noise traders subject to sentiment, is the most discussed. In this article, we contribute some novel evidence to the evaluation...

Novel composites consisting of cobalt–boron (CoB) catalyst and sodium borohydride (NaBH4) implantation in polymers (polyethylene glycol (PEG) or sodium alginate) were prepared for portable hydrogen production. The CoB catalyst was synthesized by the reduction of cobalt salt in NaBH4 solution...

This study demonstrates the use of an additive fuzzy system to control the velocity and gap of cars in a single lane two-car platoon. A throttle- only controller and a combined throttle and braker controller were tested. Simulation results show that follower cars with a combined brake/ throttle...

This article presents and estimates demand systems by explicitly incorporating intertemporal consumption behavior as summarized by the Euler equation. Demand systems are characterized by two indirect utility functions which are effectively globally regular and can better approximate nonlinear...

MnO2+δ (Manganese oxide) nanoflakes were synthesized for use as electrode material in electrochemical supercapacitors. The nanoflakes were produced via RF-magnetron sputtering with various excess oxygen contents (δ), and the electrochemical supercapacitive properties of the MnO2+δ nanoflakes...

Induction methods have recently been found to be useful in a wide variety of business related problems, including in the construction of expert systems. Decision tree induction is an important type of inductive learning method. Empirical results have shown that pruning a decision tree sometimes...
