Nowadays, living in information era has forced us to face with a great deal of problems of which the input data is received like a nonstop endless stream. Intrusion detection in networks or filtering spam emails out of legal ones are instances of such problems. In such areas, traditional classification algorithms show function improperly, thus it is necessary to make use of novel algorithms that can tackle these problems. Among classification algorithms, decision trees have significant advantages such as being independent of any parameter and acting robust against outliers or unrelated attributes. Moreover, results of a decision tree are quite easy to interpret and extract rules from.... 

Hexavalent chromium ion (Cr+6) is a very toxic type of heavy metal in industrial effluents which is not biodegradable and accumulates in the human body that can cause genetic mutations and cancer. The aim of this project is to investigate the effect of wavelength and intensity of appropriate light on the reaction rate of photocatalytic reduction of Cr+6 ion to less toxic materials. In this project, we first designed and constructed a photocatalytic reactor to investigate the effect of wavelength and intensity of incident light on the reaction rate. The home-made photocatalytic reactor consisted of 120 LEDs in 12 different wavelengths, which has ability to control the intensity and... 

Magnesia-Doloma refractories has advantages such as stability in alkaline environments, clean steel production, resistance to acid slag, good cement kiln coating flexibility, low production cost. It also has some weaknesses such as low resistance to thermal shock and quick hydration. In the present study using Birjand Mines Magnesite powders and Dolomites from Zefreh, Esfahan, Magnesia-Doloma clinkers were pressed under the pressure 90 MP and prepared at 1650⁰C in furnace under air atmosphere. The effect of adding 0, 2, 4, 6, and 8% of the Microparticles and Nanoparticles of α-Alumina on microstructure, physical properties, hydration resistance and Thermal shock resistance was studied. Phase... 

Causality and locality are two of the fundamental problems in physics and physicists have different interpretations of them. In new physics theories like Quantum mechanics and Quantum field theory, the main point of discussion is that whether these two theories are local and causal or not? In first chapter, we introduce the principle of causality. The second and third chapters cover causality in Quantum mechanics and Quantum field theory.The last chapter is about locality  

In this M.Sc. thesis the behavior patterns of the cavity quantum electrodynamics of complex systems are analyzed, such systems are quantum optic multi-partite systems and consist of an arbitrary number of quantum dots in interaction with arbitrary number of cavity modes.
First, the coefficients matrix of the ket sate of the system was measured, in order to achieve it; the general time-dependent state of the most general possible system was specified. Its related Hamiltonian was written, and finally the Schrodinger equation was measured in different coupling regimes. It was done in Schrodinger picture without any approximation.Second, the presence probabilities of the quantum dots of any... 

There is a growing demand for efficient treatment plans which can deal with high loading of organic pollutant, considering the population growth in communities. Our country is going toward industrialization; hence, it requires more effective and efficient treatment plans as well as innovative ones. Moving Bed Biological Reactors are accounted amongst appropriate methods in removing various pollutant which has been used in recent decades. In regard to increasing demand for new treatment plans, one of the options can be upgrading of existing activated sludge systems. Two bioreactors with 10 liter volume each in parallel lines were used in this work. One of them was a regular MBBR as a blank... 

Parkinson's disease is a degenerative disorder of the central nervous system. The motor symptoms of Parkinson's disease result from the death of dopamine-generating cells in the substantia nigra. The cause of this cell death is unknown. Early in the course of the disease, the most obvious symptoms are movement-related. Some of the symptoms are: shaking, rigidity, slowness of movement and difficulty with walking and gait. Modern treatments are effective at managing the early motor symptoms of the disease, mainly through the use of levodopa and dopamine agonists. As the disease progresses these drugs eventually become ineffective and produce a complication called dyskinesia, marked by...
