Abstract
Cryptography algorithms are a fundamental part of a cryptographic system that is designed and implemented to increase information security. They are the center of attention of experts in the information technology domains. Although the cryptography algorithms are implemented to attain the goals such as confidentially, integrity, and authenticity of designing, but other matters that must be noticed by designers include speed, resource consumption, reliability, flexibility, usage type, and so on. For the useful allocation of hardware, software, and human resources, it is important to identify the role of each of the factors influencing the design of cryptographic algorithms to invest in the...

Abstract
In this paper a new geometrical approach for separating speech signals is presented. This approach can be directly applied to separate more than two speech signals. It is based on clustering the observation points, and then fitting a line (hyper-plane) onto each cluster. The algorithm quality is shown to be improved by using DCT coefficients of speech signals, as opposed to using speech samples. © Springer-Verlag 2004

Abstract
The problem of sensor placement for passive source localization under the non-line of sight signal propagation is considered in this paper. To this end, first we derive the Cramer-Rao lower bound for the time of arrival based source localization under non-line of sight conditions. Then, the optimal arrangement of sensors to achieve this lower bound is obtained in the two important cases with all of the receivers being non line of sight ones in the first case and a combination of line of sight and non-line of sight receivers in the 2nd case. © 2018 IEEE
Using formal methods in component based software development

Abstract
Reusing the programs which have already been developed can shorten the production time and reduce costs and expenses. One of the important issues in software reuse is finding a program or a program component in a program library which has been already developed and using it in the new program. In view of precision and automation that formal methods can provide, we can use formal methods in retrieval appropriate components from the software libraries. In this paper, some of the works done in the field of retrieval of the components from the libraries by the help of formal methods have been surveyed and reviewed

Abstract
Sport video shot classification is a basic step in the sport video processing. For many purposes such as event detection and summarization, shot classification is needed for content filtering. In this paper, we present a new method for soccer video shot classification. At first, in-field and out-of-field frames are separated. In in-field frames three features based on number of connected components and shirt color percent in vertical and horizontal strips are extracted. The features are all new and showed excellent discrimination in the feature space. These features are given to SVM for classifying long, medium and close-up shots. One of the advantages of our method is that, close-ups can be...

Abstract
In the last decades, much attention has been paid to the design of multi-speaker voice conversion. In this work, a new method for voice conversion (VC) using nonlinear principal component analysis (NLPCA) is presented. The principal components are extracted and transformed by a feed-forward neural network which is trained by combination of Genetic Algorithm (GA) and Back-Propagation (BP). Common pre- and post-processing approaches are applied to increase the quality of the synthesized speech. The results indicate that the proposed method can be considered as a step towards multi-speaker Voice conversion. © 2007 IEEE
Government interventions and the size of the informal economy. The case of Iran (1971-2007)
, Article Journal of Economic Policy Reform ; Vol. 17, issue. 1 , 2014 , pp. 71-90 ; ISSN: 17487870 ; Nili, M ; Sharif University of Technology
Abstract
Literature on the informal economy can mainly be divided into two different contrasting theories. According to the dual labor market theory (DLM), which considers the informal economy as a spare sector providing jobs for formally unemployed resources, unpleasant economic situations force people to act informally. Legalists, on the other hand, blame government interventions such as minimum wages or price control policies for pushing rent-seeking firms toward the shadows. This study using an Error-correction Multi-Indicators Multi-Causes (EMIMIC) model, a systematic method consisting of structural and measurement equations, shows that these two theories are complementary rather than...

Abstract
This paper presents a new run-based algorithm for labeling connected components in a binary image. The algorithm removes assumption on all border pixels of image are background. Also it does not use merging operation for resolving label equivalences among provisional labels (sets), but it uses post processing stage. The post processing stage reduces complexity for resolving label equivalency. During the first scan, provisional labels are assigned to the connected components. After the first scan, the post processing is done to resolve label equivalency. The smallest provisional label among all provisional labels that are assigned to a connected component is considered as a representative...
A Pool-based active learning method for improving farsi-english machine translation system
, Article 2012 6th International Symposium on Telecommunications, IST 2012 ; 978-146732073-3 ; Sharif University of Technology
Abstract
In this paper we try to alleviate the problem of scares resources for developing Farsi-English Statistical Machine Translation system (SMT). It is done by applying Active Learning (AL) idea to choose more informative sentences to be translated by a human and then be added to the base-line corpus. While using the human translations is worthless in compare to the other approaches of corpus gathering (like automatic approaches), it is more costly too. So, in this way we can improve the translation system with less cost. This is done in intricate to human translator. Applying Active learning idea to a SMT system, changes it to a system which can improve its based-line corpus by asking for the...
Application of the genetic algorithm to calculate the interaction parameters for multiphase and multicomponent systems
, Article Iranian Journal of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering ; Volume 26, Issue 3 , 2007 , Pages 89-102 ; 10219986 (ISSN) ; Ovaysi, S ; Taghikhani, V ; Ghotbi, C ; Sharif University of Technology

Abstract
A method based on the Genetic Algorithm (GA) was developed to study the phase behavior of multicomponent and multiphase systems. Upon application of the GA to the thermodynamic models which are commonly used to study the VLE, VLLE and LLE phase equilibria, the physically meaningful values for the Binary Interaction Parameters (BIP) of the models were obtained. Using the method proposed in this work the activity coefficients for components at infinite dilution, obtained from the local composition based models, can be accurately predicted comparing to the experimental data available in the literature. In this work, a Global Optimization Procedure (GOP) based on the GA was developed to obtain...
Sparse ICA via cluster-wise PCA
, Article Neurocomputing ; Volume 69, Issue 13-15 , 2006 , Pages 1458-1466 ; 09252312 (ISSN) ; Jutten, C ; Mansour, A ; Sharif University of Technology

Abstract
In this paper, it is shown that independent component analysis (ICA) of sparse signals (sparse ICA) can be seen as a cluster-wise principal component analysis (PCA). Consequently, Sparse ICA may be done by a combination of a clustering algorithm and PCA. For the clustering part, we use, in this paper, an algorithm inspired from K-means. The final algorithm is easy to implement for any number of sources. Experimental results points out the good performance of the method, whose the main restriction is to request an exponential growing of the sample number as the number of sources increases. © 2006 Elsevier B.V.

Herein, an efficient and sustainable one-pot, four-component access to rhodanine-oxindole derivatives is achieved by a reaction between primary amines, carbon disulfide, ethyl chloroacetate, and cyano-substituted alkenyl oxindoles. The reaction was conducted without any harsh conditions as well as exhausting workup in polyethylene glycol (PEG) as a green solvent at room temperature and delivered rhodanine-oxindole products in high yield. This publication is the first easy protocol to be reported for the rapid construction of new rhodanine-oxindole derivatives at room temperature without harsh conditions and via multicomponent reaction. © 2021 Taylor & Francis Group, LLC
Modular verification of a component-based actor language
, Article Journal of Universal Computer Science ; Volume 11, Issue 10 , 2005 , Pages 1695-1717 ; 0958695X (ISSN) ; De Boer, F. S ; Movaghar, A ; Sharif University of Technology

Abstract
Rebeca is an actor-based language for modeling concurrent and distributed systems as a set of reactive objects which communicate via asynchronous message passing. Rebeca is extended to support synchronous communication, and at the same time components are introduced to encapsulate the tightly coupled reactive objects which may communicate by synchronous messages. This provide us a language for modeling globally asynchronous and locally synchronous systems. Components interact only by asynchronous messages. This feature and also the eventdriven nature of the computation are exploited to introduce a modular verification approach in order to overcome the state explosion problem in model...

Abstract
In this paper several applications of the Independent Component Analysis (ICA) algorithm, for the analysis of biomedical signal recordings have been investigated. One of these applications is the removal of EEG artifacts such as the EOG. It is shown that ICA may serve as a powerful tool, which could help the analysis of biomedical recordings, and give better insights about the underlying sources of some disorders. Another application of the proposed method is the detection of sleep disorders in patients suffering from sleep apnea. The ultimate goal of this approach is to develop an automatic noninvasive data acquisition system, for clinical applications
Modeling component connectors in reo by constraint automata: (Extended abstract)
, Article Proceedings of FOCLASA 2003, the Foundations of Coordination Languages and Software Architectures, a satellite event of CONCUR 2003, Marseille, 2 September 2003 through 2 September 2003 ; Volume 97 , 2004 , Pages 25-46 ; 15710661 (ISSN) ; Baier, C ; Rutten, J ; Sirjani, M ; Sharif University of Technology

Abstract
Reo is an exogenous coordination language for compositional construction of component connectors based on a calculus of channels. Building automated tools to address such concerns as equivalence or containment of the behavior of two given connectors, verification of the behavior of a connector, etc. requires an operational semantic model suitable for model checking. In this paper we introduce constraint automata and propose them as a semantic model for Reo. © 2004 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved

In this letter, we compute the variation of the mutual information, resulting from a small variation in its argument. Although the result can be applied in many problems, we consider only one example: the result is used for deriving a new method for blind source separation in linear mixtures. The experimental results emphasize the performance of the resulting algorithm
Reliability assessment of the standby system with dependent components by bivariate exponential distributions

Abstract
In the reliability analysis of systems, all system components are often assumed independent and failure of any component does not depend on any other component. One of the reasons for doing so is that considerations of calculation and elegance typically pull in simplicity. But in real-world applications, there are very complex systems with lots of subsystems and a choice of multiple components that may interact with each other. Therefore, components of the system can be affected by the occurrence of a failure in any of the components. The purpose of this paper is to give an explicit formula for the computation of the reliability of a system with two parallel active components and one spare...
Environmental impact assessment modeling in an urban man-made lake using fuzzy logic

Abstract
Environmental impact assessment essentially depends on diverse closely connected components and variables. For this purpose, identification of the whole components is fundamentally required. This study aims to investigate environmental impact assessment of an urban man-made lake in the western part of Tehran, based on recognition of affecting components and their reciprocal effects. Since the components are not constant during the time, thus throughout the environmental impact assessment modeling study, dynamism of the relation between the components should be considered. Regarding insufficiency and uncertainty of information, an analytical method, based on expert's opinion can be applied....
