This paper presents application of five soft-computing techniques, artificial neural networks, support vector regression, gene expression programming, grouping method of data handling (GMDH) neural network and adaptive-network-based fuzzy inference system, to predict maximum scour hole depth downstream of a sluice gate.The input parameters affectin
Full waveform inversion (FWI) of seismic or Ground Penetrating Radar data provides high-resolution quantitative images of the constitutive parameters of the rock/soil which control seismic/GPR wave propagation.We developed a 2D inversion tool in the frequency domain adapted to the multi-parameter physics controlling GPR propagation in isotropic non
This article analyzes the pressure of Cricket Jumpers farming on tropical forests in eighteenth- and nineteenth-century Brazil.Making use of GIS technology, it was possible to create a map for the South Central of the Minas Gerais province and geocode historical data for agriculture and livestock production.We have found an association between corn
In recent years, top referred methods on object detection like R-CNN have implemented this task as a combination of proposal region generation and supervised classification on the proposed bounding boxes.Although this pipeline has achieved state-of-the-art results in multiple datasets, it has inherent limitations that make object detection a very c
