Assessing and Regenerating Proposed GIS Grid-based Geospatial Modeling Algorithms [PDF]

open access: yesThe International Journal of Informatics, Media and Communication Technology
This research is a new attempt to purify the modeling concepts from some misleading geographical published papers and unpublished M.A. theses & Ph.D. dissertations that dealt with grid-based spatial modeling irrationally.

The mixture assessment or allocation factor: conceptual background, estimation algorithms and a case study example

open access: yesEnvironmental Sciences Europe, 2023
Current approaches for the prospective regulatory assessment of chemicals do not account sufficiently for elevated mixture risks. The Mixture Assessment Factor (MAF, better labeled a Mixture Allocation Factor) has been suggested for mixtures of ...

Feature-Based and Adaptive Rule Adaptation in Dynamic Environments

open access: yesData Science and Engineering, 2020
Rule-based systems have been used increasingly to augment learning algorithms for annotating data. Rules alleviate many of the shortcomings inherent in pure algorithmic approaches, in cases algorithms are not working well or lack from enough training ...
