    Diagnosis of Heart Disease Using Data Mining

    , M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology Alizadeh Sani, Roohallah (Author) ; Habibi, Jafar (Supervisor)
    Abstract
    Cardiovascular diseases are very common nowadays and are one of the main reasons of death. Being among the major types of these diseases, correct and in time diagnosis of Coronary Artery Disease (CAD) is very important. The best and most accurate CAD diagnosis method by now is recognized as Angiography, which has many side effects and is costly. Thus researchers are seeking for inexpensive, though still accurate, methods. Existing studies have used several features in collecting data from patients, while applying different data mining algorithms to increase accuracy. In this thesis, a data set is introduced which utilizes several new and effective features for CAD diagnosis, as well as a... 

    Online Voltage Stability Assessment Based on Wide Area Measurements

    , M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology Beiraghi, Mojtaba (Author) ; Ranjbar, Ali Mohammad (Supervisor) ; Mozafari, Babak (Supervisor)
    Abstract
    Online voltage stability assessment is essential for preventing the failure in power systems. Voltage instability in power systems usually occurs in consequence of contingency situations or continuous load increasing or both of them. A new method for online voltage stability assessment using the data acquired from phasor measurement units (PMUs) and offline trained decision trees is presented in this thesis. The index of voltage stability margin (VSM) is used for security assessment and considering WSCC criterion, different operation points are divided in two classes: safe and unsafe. In order to obtain the voltage stability margin and generate the database, a new method which has been named... 

    Risk-Based Seismic Design of Buildings in the Context of Cities,with Rigorous Uncertainty Modeling, and Proposing Efficient Computational Methods

    , Ph.D. Dissertation Sharif University of Technology Ghods, Babak (Author) ; Rahimzadeh Rofooei, Fayaz (Supervisor)
    Abstract
    The main goal of the current building design codes is to protect life safety, and generally, they do not directly address other societal, economic, etc., concerns regarding earthquakes. However, recent earthquakes around the world have shown that the effects of earthquakes' damages and losses can go beyond life-safety concerns. This observation has led many renowned scholars, organizations, and agencies to state the need to change the current design codes. In this regard, this thesis investigates the basis of setting the seismic design requirements and suggests a method in this respect. The study consists of two main parts. Part I (theory and design methodology) discusses some theoretical... 

    Data Mining Using Extended LASSO-based Factor Selection Algorithms

    , M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology Javadi Narab, Nahid (Author) ; Akhavan Niaki, Taghi (Supervisor)
    Abstract
    Today, with the development of financial and economic sciences and the increasing volume of financial data, it is necessary to process and analyze this field more accurately with up-to-date tools. On the other hand, by the significant growth of the use of machines and computers for analysis and forecasting purposes, their importance and application have been well defined. Therefore, this research is considered to provide a more efficient method by processing historical data and analyzing them using data mining techniques. The results of this study can be provided to experts in this field as an effective method. Therefore, in this research, a new method based on the selection of required...
