WILDFIRE CAUSE ANALYSIS: FOUR CASE-STUDIES IN SOUTHERN ITALY

Wildfire cause analysis: four case-studies in southern Italy

Forest fires in Italy are mainly caused by humans, and directly depend on social behavior, whether voluntary (arson) or involuntary (negligence).Despite the progress in knowledge made with studying the physical facets of the phenomenon, causes and motives of human-related fire remain mostly unknown.This paper proposes the implementation of the Delp

Use of Taguchi Methods in Designing an Experimental Model of Wind Turbine with Vertical Axis with Curved Sheet Blades

Increasing the Smokers efficiency of the conversion of electricity into light energy (UV LEDs) has made possible a new stage in the development of vertical axis wind turbines by compensating for the small wind energy conversion efficiency (14.81%).The work is EUCALYPTUS based on the use of Taguchi methods (TM) in increasing the efficiency of a wind

CFNAM-PG: Bridging Phonetic and Glyphic Information for Chinese Full Name and Abbreviation Matching Based on Simbert and DenseNet

Abstract Matching abbreviated names with their full names (full-abbr matching) plays a key role in data integration, address matching, information retrieval, and other fields.Traditional full-abbr matching technology often encounters issues related to near homophones and near homoglyphs.First, a near-homophone full-abbr matching model based on Simb
