Exploring communities and outliers in Social Network is based on considering of some nodes have overlapped neighbor node within the same group as well as some nodes have no any link to the other node or have no any overlapped value. The existing approaches are based on the overlapping community detection method were only defined…

In the present article, we develop multilayer perceptron model for identification of some possible genes mediating different leukemia. The procedure involves grouping of gene based correlation coefficient and finally select of some possible genes. The procedure has been successfully applied three human leukemia gene expression data sets. The superiority of the procedure has been demonstrated…

Chosen-ciphertext attacks (CCA) are typical threat on public-key encryption schemes. We show direct chosen-ciphertext security modification in the case of attribute-based encryption (ABE), where an ABE scheme secure against chosen-plaintext attacks (CPA) is converted into an ABE scheme secure against CCA by individual techniques. Our modification works in the setting that the Diffie-Hellman tuple to…

The current advances in proteomic and transcriptomic technologies produced huge amounts of high-throughput data that spans multiple biological processes and characteristics in different organisms. One of the important directions in today’s bioinformatics research is to discover patterns of genes that have interesting properties. These groups of genes can be referred to as functional modules. Detecting…

New multimedia applications such as mobile video, high-quality Internet video or digital television requires high-performance encoding of video signals to meet technical constraints such as runtime, bandwidth or latency. Video coding standard h.265 HEVC (High Efficiency Video Coding) was developed by JCT-VC to replace the MPEG-2, MPEG-4 and h.264 codecs and to respond to these…

Aging is a natural process that progressively introduces limitations in a person’s life, which can have dramatic effects on the person’s lifestyle and wellbeing and in most cases is related to the strength of the person’s social bonds with the family and friends group. Therefore, it is important to maintain these bonds in the various…

Education is the raising of the thinking process and developing the mind in a broader perspective. However, education that is comprehensive and appropriate to the individual according to its potential, ability and skill is too hardest to describe. Thus, matching and referral institutions, including education model that suits the person’s behavior has been receiving attention.…

Abstract— The process of mapping large numbers of markers is computationally complex, as the increase of numbers of markers results in an exponential increase in the mapping runtime. Also, having unreliable markers in the dataset adds more complexity to the mapping process. In this research, we have addressed these two issues and proposed our solution.…
