The hydrophysical properties of the soil play an important role in agricultural production and ecosystem services, and relate to both parental material and bioclimatic conditions and land use. Given the importance of the topic, an investigation was carried out whose objective was to know the relationship between hydrophysical properties and parenta...
Human prosperity is closely linked to the availability of raw material resources, among other things. Despite enormous technological progress, we cannot dispense with mineral extraction. Since the mining industry still represents a key sector for society, striving for keeping abreast of the best practices, technologies, and knowledge available in t...

Multi-view data, which is matched sets of measurements on the same subjects, have become increasingly common with advances in multi-omics technology. Often, it is of interest to find associations between the views that are related to the intrinsic class memberships. Existing association methods cannot directly incorporate class information, while e...

Determination of sex from mutilated body fragments can perform vital role for identification of departed soul. Forensic authority pacts with human identification from the hand measurements which is of prodigious assessment during tragedies, terror attacks and in criminality. Present study explored the analytical role of the anthropometric measureme...

Nowadays, data on the anthropometric measurements of populations is needed in many areas, especially forensic and legal. Using various methods, researchers obtain various data such as race, sex, and age, and thus provide identification of the material used. Morphological or metric methods are often used for identification. To evaluate the usefulnes...

Celosia (Celosia argentea), is an important tropical vegetable for households in sub-Saharan Africa. Despite the multifaceted usefulness, available genotypes are low-yielding, and the vegetable faces dangers of genetic erosion due to poor research attention. The magnitude and pattern of variability will guide the choice of breeding methods for impr...

The potential mechanisms that drive the behavior of subducted oceanic plates at the 660-km discontinuity are subject to debate. Here we conduct logistic regression analysis and model selection to determine the key subduction-zone parameters in natural subduction zones that discriminate the plate behavior along the discontinuity. We select the key v...
Bearing fault diagnosis has been a challenge in rotating machinery and has gained considerable attention. In order to correctly classify faults, the conventional fault diagnosis methods are mostly based on vibration signals. However, features extracted from a single view of vibration signals may leave out useful information, which can cause the inc...

This study has several purposes. First, identify indicators contributing to the performance of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) that could be affected by the COVID-19. Second, formulate the framework to measure the level of vulnerability of SMEs. Third, assign the SMEs into several clusters. Data used in this research were collected throug...

The aim of this work was to evaluate the capability of diffuse reflectance spectroscopy to distinguish malignant liver tissues from surrounding tissues and to determine whether an extended wavelength range (450-1550 nm) offers any advantages over using the conventional wavelength range. Furthermore, multivariate analysis combined with a machine lea...
