Identification and structural analysis of the interactional effect of the change drivers on the field of education

Due to its wide range and importance, the education system has very important and complex elements that if we neglect to monitor their future variations, it can lead to undeniable and profound damages to the results that are expected to be ...

Comparison of Neighborhood-Scale, Residential Property Flood-Loss Assessment Methodologies

Leading flood loss estimation models include Federal Emergency Management Agency’s (FEMA’s) Hazus, FEMA’s Flood Assessment Structure Tool (FAST), and (U.S.) Hydrologic Engineering Center’s Flood Impact Analysis (HEC-FIA), with each requirin...

Data-Driven Cervical Cancer Prediction Model with Outlier Detection and Over-Sampling Methods

Globally, cervical cancer remains as the foremost prevailing cancer in females. Hence, it is necessary to distinguish the importance of risk factors of cervical cancer to classify potential patients. The present work proposes a cervical can...

Automated wound care by employing a reliable U-Net architecture combined with ResNet feature encoders for monitoring chronic wounds

Quality of life is greatly affected by chronic wounds. It requires more intensive care than acute wounds. Schedule follow-up appointments with their doctor to track healing. Good wound treatment promotes healing and fewer problems. Wound ca...

Kinetics of Hydrolytic Depolymerization of Textile Waste Containing Polyester

Textile products comprise approximately 10% of the total global carbon footprint. Standard practice is to discard apparel textile waste after use, which pollutes the environment. There are professional collectors, charity organizations, and...
