. In this paper, we study the problem of relay selection for a wireless cooperative network in context of IEEE 802.16j emerging standard. We propose Best relay selection method, which selects outage optimal relay station for each subchannel. We provide analytical...

on noncooperative

and cooperative utility functions. In non-cooperative

approach, utility function of each user is defined based on the

performance of the user without considering the impact of the

user’s action on the others. However...

this assumption does not hold in real world's

problems. In this paper we propose a hierarchical framework to model dependency between annotators. This cooperation of experts make the predicted model robust to deviation from ground-truth. Parameters...

بحران آب در سیاست بین‎الملل به عنوان پدیده ای چند وجهی و پیچیده در نظر گرفته شده است. حوادثی مانند توسعه صنعتی، رشد جمعیت، تغییرات اقلیمی، گرمایش جهانی و ... باعث شده‎اند آب و منابع آن، بیش از همیشه مورد توجه و تمرکز مباحث ...

The Middle East is the scene of intense regional and trans-regional competitions. The present study aims at investigating the possible scenarios regarding the future of Iran-Iraq relations. The most possible scenarios include cooperation...

spectrum since the coverage area of primary users is limited. In this paper, we suggest a diffusion adaptive learning algorithm

based on correntropy cooperation policy, which firstly categorizes received data of secondary users into several groups...
