Demographic, Clinical, and Allergic Characteristics of Children with Eosinophilic Esophagitis in Isfahan, Iran.

Iranian journal of allergy, asthma, and immunology
Eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) is a chronic immune-mediated disease isolated to the esophagus Food allergy is thought to play an important role in the pathophysiology of EOE. The aim of this study is to evaluate demographic features and sensitivity o...

Modeling daily suspended sediment load using improved support vector machine model and genetic algorithm.

Environmental science and pollution research international
Prediction of sediment volume and sediment load is always one of the important issues for decision-makers of watershed basins. The present study investigated the daily suspended sediment load in a watershed basin using the improved support vector mac...

Machine learning approaches in GIS-based ecological modeling of the sand fly Phlebotomus papatasi, a vector of zoonotic cutaneous leishmaniasis in Golestan province, Iran.

Acta tropica
The distribution and abundance of Phlebotomus papatasi, the primary vector of zoonotic cutaneous leishmaniasis in most semi-/arid countries, is a major public health challenge. This study compares several approaches to model the spatial distribution ...

Development of GP and GEP models to estimate an environmental issue induced by blasting operation.

Environmental monitoring and assessment
Air overpressure (AOp) is one of the most adverse effects induced by blasting in the surface mines and civil projects. So, proper evaluation and estimation of the AOp is important for minimizing the environmental problems resulting from blasting. The...

An intelligent algorithm for identification of optimum mix of demographic features for trust in medical centers in Iran.

Artificial intelligence in medicine
Healthcare quality is affected by various factors including trust. Patients' trust to healthcare providers is one of the most important factors for treatment outcomes. The presented study identifies optimum mixture of patient demographic features wit...

Application of Bayesian networks in a hierarchical structure for environmental risk assessment: a case study of the Gabric Dam, Iran.

Environmental monitoring and assessment
Environmental risk assessment (ERA) is a commonly used, effective tool applied to reduce adverse effects of environmental risk factors. In this study, ERA was investigated using the Bayesian network (BN) model based on a hierarchical structure of var...

Novel forecasting approaches using combination of machine learning and statistical models for flood susceptibility mapping.

Journal of environmental management
In this research, eight individual machine learning and statistical models are implemented and compared, and based on their results, seven ensemble models for flood susceptibility assessment are introduced. The individual models included artificial n...

Mapping of the corals around Hendorabi Island (Persian Gulf), using WorldView-2 standard imagery coupled with field observations.

Marine pollution bulletin
High spatial resolution WorldView-2 (WV2) satellite imagery coupled with field observations have been utilized for mapping the coral reefs around Hendorabi Island in the northern Persian Gulf. In doing so, three standard multispectral bands (red, gre...

Comparing Three Data Mining Algorithms for Identifying the Associated Risk Factors of Type 2 Diabetes.

Iranian biomedical journal
BACKGROUND: Increasing the prevalence of type 2 diabetes has given rise to a global health burden and a concern among health service providers and health administrators. The current study aimed at developing and comparing some statistical models to i...
