        The main purpose in various methods of image registration is to find the transformation parameters for accurate mapping an image onto another image coordinates. In medical sciences creating a precise mapping between medical images data is very important in application such as diagnosis and treatment. Accordingly, several approaches have been proposed for image registration. The compression of results and performance between different image registration algorithms was the main motivation for this research to design and implement a new hybrid algorithm so that provide high accuracy in multimodal image registration. Automating the image registration process by using machine learning approach is the innovation of this method compared to previous ones. To this end, the proposed method which is named multi resolution learning is composed of multi resolution decomposition and a hierarchical neural network which it learn the transformation parameters by using global properties of the image and uses learned transformation parameter for image registration. The proposed method is implemented and tested on the medical images of Vanderbilt university database. Experiment result show acceptable accuracy for the proposed method compared with other methods.

        Because of importance of quickly city evacuation during natural or unnatural happenings, it’s essential to apply an optimized control policy to prevent congestion and stop of vehicles. Existing works for traffic management in critical conditions have paid little attention to artificial intelligence approaches. Therefore, the main goal of authors in this research is offering an optimized and intelligent control policy for city evacuation traffic. This policy uses fuzzy inference system for decision making of each agent and probabilistic automata for optimizing performance of agents as for their preferences during time. To check degree of success of offered control policy, Agent Base Simulation in RStudio and Netlogo environments have been implemented using RNetlogo and frbs packages in R language. Simulation results show traffic load distribution, using maximum capacity of roads and congestion prevention by suggested policy. With regard to communication technologies such as GPS, smart phones, automatic tax payment systems in roads and … that have been developed in recent years, it is also possible to implement suggested critical traffic control policy in real world.

        In this paper a new learning automata-based algorithm is proposed for learning of parameters of a Bayesian network. For this purpose, a new team of learning automata which is called eDLA is used. In this paper the structure of Bayesian network is assumed to be fixed. New arriving sample plays role of the random environment and the accuracy of the current parameters generates the random environment reinforcement signal. Linear algorithm is used to update the action selection probability of the automata. Another key issue in Bayesian networks is parameter learning under circumstances that new samples are incomplete. It is shown that new proposed method can be used in this situation. The experiments show that the accuracy of the proposed automata based algorithm is the same as the traditional enumerative methods such as EM. In addition to the online learning characteristics, the proposed algorithm is in accordance with the conditions in which the data are incomplete and due to the use of learning automaton, has a little computational overhead.

        The use of metaheuristic algorithms is a good choice for solving optimization problems. In this paper, a novel feature selection algorithm based on Ant Colony Optimization (ACO), called Advanced Binary ACO (ABACO), is presented. This algorithm is an advanced version of binary ant colony optimization, which attempts to solve the problems of ACO and BACO algorithms by combination of these two. The performance of proposed algorithm is compared to the performance of Binary Genetic Algorithm (BGA), Binary Particle Swarm Optimization (BPSO), and some prominent ACO-based algorithms on the task of feature selection on 12 well-known UCI datasets. Simulation results verify that the algorithm provides a suitable feature subset with good classification accuracy using a smaller feature set than competing feature selection methods.

        According to the entry of new networks such as LTE and WiMAX that is based OFDM in country, the need to research and evaluate the performance of these networks is inevitable. In this paper we investigated the performance of different frequency allocation schemes in an LTE network. We first introduced the frequency allocation schemes include Reuse-1, Reuse-3, partial frequency reuse, sectoring, cell division region and soft frequency reuse, and then by creating a phase difference between two signals in a MISO channel in standard LTE, and combine it with some of these schemes such as sectorization and cell division region with the sectoring interference will significantly decreased in such networks. The simulation results show that the phase differences between the signals(which it’s called the one pre-order scheme) in MISO channel, due to the rotation of the antenna radiation pattern depending on the position of mobile users, and also the soft frequency reuse scheme for the full allocation of OFDM carriers to each cell and sending with less power for users of the cell center, leads to the substantial gain in the total network capacity, under the different traffics.

        Fingerprint as a biometric has the most applications in verification and identification systems, because of its specific properties. In identification systems, input image is compared with all of images stored in the database. In huge databases, the comparison will take large amounts of time; Consider FBI databases, for instance. Image classification is one of the approved methods to increase the identification speed. Only one class is assigned to each fingerprint in tradition absolute classification. Various reasons like noise or lack of all the singularity points in captured region, cause the problem in determination of an absolute class for all the images. In this article, a new method based on probabilistic classification is presented. In the proposed approach, a set of classes are considered for each input image with a specific probability. These classes are searched in order of their probabilities priority in matching stage. Experiments on well-known FVC2002 database, exhibit the effect of probable classification clearly. Using only the second and third classes assigned by the proposed method, the identification system achieves about 18% increase in accuracy and 2-3 times speedup in compared to the traditional methods.

One of the issues that is very important in wireless sensor networks is Discussion reducing energy consumption and increasing network lifetime. Topology control is one of the methods to reduce energy consumption and increase the lifetime of the network. Since different methods of topology control, to reduce energy consumption and enhance the network lifetime is proposed that including them is the clustering and one of the most famous clustering methods is LEACH. In this paper, we try to present a new clustering method that is superior compared to leach and other improved methods after the LEACH. we use in our clustering method from two-level fuzzy logic that be causing reduce energy consumption and increase the network lifetime compared to other methods and to prove the superiority of our method compared with other methods, we present a comparison using MATLAB software.

        Sensors in WSN work with batteries that have limited energy capacity. Therefore, reduction in power consumption is a very important issue. In this paper, we present a new routing algorithm to reduce power consumption in wireless sensor networks. This algorithm deploys Learning automata in each node to find a suitable path for routing data packets. In order to aim this goal the algorithm uses penalty based approach in learning automata and considers energy level of nodes and latency of packet delivery as well. Performance of our new developed algorithm has been compared with LABER and BEAR protocols in OMNET++ simulator. Simulation results show that, in a network with static nodes, energy consumption and control packets reduce significantly and network lifetime increases in comparison with two other protocols.
