Application of Linear Regression Classification to Low-Dimensional Datasets
(Elsevier, 2014)The Traditional Linear Regression Classification (LRC) method fails when the number of data in thetraining set is greater than their dimensions. In this work, we proposed a new implementation of LRC toovercome this problem ... -
Application of nanofluids in thermosyphons: A review
(Elsevier, 2018)Nanofluids are widely used in recent years in order to enhance heat transfer in several mediums. Thermal perfor-mance of thermosyphons can be improved by employment of nanofluids. In this study, a comprehensive reviewis ... -
Assessment of toxic copper(II) biosorption from aqueous solution by chemically-treated tomato waste
(Elsevier, 2015)Agricultural wastes or industrial wastes can be used as biosorbent with quite little processing when theyare locally available in large quantities. A great number of studies were done to uptake copper(II) ionfrom aqueous ... -
