The application of machine learning to the modelling of percutaneous absorption: An overview and guide
(2015-03-18)Machine learning (ML) methods have been applied to the analysis of a range of biological systems. This paper reviews the application of these methods to the problem domain of skin permeability and addresses critically some ... -
An Application Of Machine Learning With Boruta Feature Selection To Improve NO2 Pollution Prediction
(Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife, 2021-07-08)Projecting and monitoring NO2 pollutants' concentration is perhaps an efficient and effective technique to lower people's exposure, reducing the negative impact caused by this harmful atmospheric substance. Many studies ... -
Application of Magnetic Field Treatment to Enhance the Durability of Metallic Alloys under Cyclic Loads
(2022-06-23)This research studies the effect of alternating magnetic field treatment on fatigue and wear properties of EN8 steel, 70/30 brass alloy, nickel-aluminium bronze, and aluminium alloy 2014-T6. Cavitation erosion, fatigue and ... -
The application of Monte Carlo methods to the synthesis of spectral line profiles from accretion disc winds
(1995)A Monte Carlo line profile synthesis method is presented which allows the radiative transfer of resonantly scattered lines through a stellar wind to be solved exactly. The resulting code is designed to be used primarily ... -
Application of Multilayer Extreme Learning Machine for Efficient Building Energy Prediction
(2022-12)Building energy efficiency is vital, due to the substantial amount of energy consumed in buildings and the associated adverse effects. A high-accuracy energy prediction model is considered as one of the most effective ways ... -
The application of neural networks to anodic stripping voltammetry to improve trace metal analysis
(University of Hertfordshire, 1995)This thesis describes a novel application of an artificial neural network and links together the two diverse disciplines of electroanalytical chemistry and information sciences. The artificial neural network is used to ... -
Application of neural networks to the inverse light scattering problem for spheres
(1998)A new approach suitable for solving inverse problems in multi-angle light scattering is presented. The method takes advantage of multidimensional function approximation capability of radial basis function (RBF) neural ... -
The Application of non-linear methods to quantify changes to movement dynamics during running: A scoping review
(2023-06-17)The aim of this scoping review was to evaluate research approaches that quantify changes to non-linear movement dynamics during running in response to fatigue, different speeds, and fitness levels. PubMed and Scopus were ... -
The application of psychodynamic ideas to professional dance training
(2001)Concern about the welfare of professional dance students is growing as it becomes clearer that the training is not producing emotionally healthy and mature young people. Psychodynamic ideas and concepts offer a means of ... -
Application of real-time and multiplex polymerase chain reaction assays to study leaf blotch epidemics in barley
(2007-03)Leaf blotch, caused by Rhynchosporium secalis, was studied in a range of winter barley cultivars using a combination of traditional plant pathological techniques and newly developed multiplex and real-time polymerase chain ... -
Application of Riccati-Bessel functions in light scattering
(University of Hertfordshire, 2008)Riccati-Bessel functions, written as combinations of amplitude and phase functions, have been used to re-express Mie theory. This leads to a simple physical explanation of the scattered phase angle as the sum of a phase ... -
The Application of Ridgelines in Extended Radio Source Cross-Identification
(2021-10-22)Extended radio sources are an important minority population in modern deep radio surveys, because they enable detailed investigation of the physics governing radio-emitting regions such as active galaxies and their ... -
Application of Risk Management Metrics for ochratoxin-A control in the coffee chain
(2023-12-31)Coffee is one of the most consumed beverages worldwide. Like other agricultural products, coffee is susceptible of colonization by mycotoxin-producing fungi and therefore, the presence of mycotoxins. These chemical hazards ... -
