We provide a q-operator form solution to a generalized q-difference equation involving (r+s+2)-variables. We introduce a q-polynomials Ψ_n^((A,B)) (x,y,c|q). The generating function, two Rogers formulas, and two types of Srivastava-Agarwal generating functions for the polynomials Ψ_n^((A,B)) (x,y,c|q) are established using the q-difference equation technique.

     This article suggests designing an intelligent system to rehabilitate criminals in smart cities, which consists of two categories: the first category suggests a “smart social system," which suggests managing the behaviors (good or bad) of individuals as the root of crime committing. To manage any criminal behavior, we proposed electronic recording of the criminal behavior as the first step, then submitting the criminal with its behavior under proposed rehabilitation theories as the second step to examine the behavior enhancement. This rehabilitation system depends on the prize-and-penalty principle. The penalty in this system is a suspended sentence with community services and fines instead of prison punishment. The second pro

     Traditionally, real estate prices were determined based on demand and supply. As the real estate market was  unregulated and underdeveloped, brokers and real estate builders had an upper hand in determining the unit prices of residential houses in Abu Dhabi. A pricing gap was eventually noticed. This was a challenge. There is a delay in updating the real estate websites and portal information. Therefore, the need for accurate forecasting of prices has become urgent. With a variety of use case scenarios for machine learning concepts, this paper is dedicated to using the concepts of machine learning to predict the real estate prices of Aldar in the Abu Dhabi region, which comprises 511 residential units, 15 retail shops, and one

Cadmium sulfide quantum dots were synthesized and deposited on glass substrates by chemical bath deposition (CBD) technique using cadmium sulfate and thiourea solutions in the presence of a 4,4’-(1,2-ethanediyldinitrilo)bis-(2-pentanone) (EDDBP) tetradentate ligand as a complexing agent. The order of reagents addition was varied to deposit films that were characterized for their surface morphological, optical, structural, and solid-state properties using a scanning electron microscope (SEM), a UV-visible spectrophotometer, an X-ray diffractometer (XRD), and Brunauer-Emmet-Teller (BET) analyses. The optimal condition for film deposition using the norma

     The reliability in stress–strength model (s–s) is estimated in this article when the system has parallel and series components subject to one of the stresses and it follows generalized exponential distribution by taking via different estimation methods, namely the maximum likelihood estimation, unbiased estimation, moment estimation and shrinkage estimation. Also, the Mont Carlo method is used to compare these methods under mean squared error.

 The data fusion process includes merging two or more pieces of information obtained from different sensors. Satellite image fusion research aims to create a new image by combining two images captured by different sensors using various methodologies. In this research, image sharpening tools were used to combine a hyperspectral image with a low spatial resolution captured by a Hyperion sensor mounted on the Earth Observation 1 (EO-1) satellite with a grayscale high spatial resolution image captured by Enhanced Thematic Mapper Plus (ETM +) sensor mounted on Landsat-8 (resampling first one to ensure equal spatial resolution of both images). In addition, three techniques were adopted for implementing the Fusion mechanism: the Principal Comp

     Escherichia coli is gram negative bacteria and represents a typical resident of the digestive systems of both humans and animals. The stability and equilibrium of the luminal microbial flora are significantly influenced by E. coli. The Escherichia coli uropathogenic-specific protein (Usp) represents type of genotoxins produced by uropathogenic E. coli rather than fecal E. coli isolates. In the current study E. coli was isolated from urine and stool and usp gene was detected in it.   Sensitivity test was evaluated by using different types of antibiotics and the usp gene was detected by PCR in all bacterial isolates. Antibiotics sensitivity test showed variable degrees of sensitivity and resistance. High percentage of sensitivit

     The aim of this paper is to define new concepts, namely a homogenous system of difference equations x(n+1)=Bx(n)  where  B is a matrix of real numbers, which is called P-semi homogenous of order m if there exists a non-zero matrix A and integer number m such that the following equation holds: F (A(c)x(n))= 〖P(A(c))〗^m F(x(n)), Where F is a function,  m and  P are integer numbers and c is a real number. This definition is a generalization to the (3×3)-semi-homogeneous system of difference equations of order m. Special cases are studied of this definition and illustrative examples are given and some characterizations of this definition are also given. The necessary and sufficient conditions for a homogenous system of diff

Viral load of COVID-19 can be concluded from the cycle threshold (Ct) values measured by RT-PCR test performed on suspected samples. SARS-CoV2 viral load has not been standardized yet to reflect the outcome of COVID-19 infection. This cross-sectional study was performed to detect the frequency of SARS-CoV2 among suspected patients and the correlation of viral RNA load represented by cycle threshold (Ct) values with patients’ clinical presentation (disease severity), comorbidities and demographic data.

A total of 520 participants suspected to have SARS-CoV2 infection were enrolled. After filling a questionnaire, a nasopharyngeal swab was collected from each patient and subjected to RT-PCR with the use of specific primers. Ct valu

     In this paper, the class of meromorphic multivalent functions of the form by using fractional differ-integral operators is introduced. We get Coefficients estimates, radii of convexity and star likeness. Also closure theorems and distortion theorem for the class ,  is calculaed.

     Learning from imbalanced data has been a focus of studies for more than two decades of continuous development. Training data is considered imbalanced when the size of the positive (minority) class is neglected because of the large size of the negative (majority) class, in addition to the problem of deviating distributions of binary tasks. The appearance of big data brings new problems and challenges to the imbalance problem. Big Data announces the challenges with 5V: volume, velocity, veracity, value, and variety. This study relied on dividing the solution to the problem of data imbalance into three levels: data level, algorithm level, and hybrid approaches. First, the standard solutions for this problem that were proposed were

     A geographic information system (GIS) is a very effective management and analysis tool. Geographic locations rely on data. The use of artificial neural networks (ANNs) for the interpretation of natural resource data has been shown to be beneficial. Back-propagation neural networks are one of the most widespread and prevalent designs. The combination of geographic information systems with artificial neural networks provides a method for decreasing the cost of landscape change studies by shortening the time required to evaluate data. Numerous designs and kinds of ANNs have been created; the majority of them are PC-based service domains. Using the ArcGIS Network Analyst add-on, you can locate service regions around any network site

    In this work, the right coprime factor for balancing and truncating unstable systems is extended to parameter-varying multidimensional systems employing recent works on coprime factor model reduction of one-dimensional uncertain systems. Since the balanced truncation method cannot be applied directly to unstable systems, state feedback gains should be computed and incorporated in order to stabilize the given system and to be able to apply the balanced truncation technique via defining the so-called stable coprime factor, as coprime factorization overcomes the stability condition required for model reduction. Parameter-dependent state feedback and parameter-dependent Gramians are considered in this work yielding less conservative t

     Burn infections are a serious concern for patients with burn injuries, as they can lead to significant morbidity and mortality. The present study was designed to evaluate the chitosan activity against five pathogens collected from burn infections (Escherichia coli ZE15, Acinetobacter bummani ZA2, Klebsiella pneumonia ZK3 and Pseudomonas aeruginosa ZP17, Staphylococcus aureus ZS2). Chitosan was produced in solid-state fermentation using corn meal supplemented with 2% of shrimp shell chitin. The degree of deacetylation of chitosan was 79.5% and the FT-IR spectrum (4000 to 400) cm-1 gave IR spectra similar to that of the commercial chitosan. The produced chitosan showed a significant inhibitory ability fr

     In this research investigation, a total of eighteen diverse tetra- and penta-lateral cyclic compounds were synthesized. These included 1,3,4-thiadiazole, thiazolidin-4-one (via an alternative method), 1,2,4-triazole, carbothioamide, thiazole-4-one, azetidin-2-one, and oxazole. The synthesis procedure entailed a sequence of reactions. The thiazolidine-4-one 1 was obtained by reaction p-aminobenzoic acid with thiosemicarbazide, followed by treatment with p-tolualdehyde to produce Schiff base 2. Reaction Schiff base 2 with mercaptoacetic acid in dry benzene was carried out to produce thiazolidine-4-one 3. In another synthesis pathway, the esterification of p-nitro benzoic acid with ethanol in the presence of sulfuric acid was obtai

     Nine earthquakes inside Mesopotamia Plain from 2016 to 2018 were analyzed. Three seismic networks have been relied on to relocate these events and know their responsible fault. These networks are; Mesopotamian Seismological Center, Al-Refaei Seismic Array and Iranian Seismological Center. The results showed that the root mean square (RMS) values for all relocated events ranged between 0.002-0.997. The results of the error ellipse ranged from 0.24 - 4.17 km with longitude and 0.76 - 8.24 km with latitude. The new locations of these events are on or near the Ramadi-Musaiyib Fault. This means that the Ramadi-Musaiyib Fault, which belongs to the Najd fault system, is currently in reactivation.

     In this article, two issues related to the design of the experiment are investigated; namely the inspection times and optimal censoring. In the first issue, we study four different approaches to determine the inspection times, namely; pre-specified, equally spaced, optimally spaced, and equal probability using two optimality criteria. In the second issue, we identify the optimal censoring scheme by finding the expected numbers of removals or proportions that attain a specific optimality criterion using two optimality criteria considered. Numerical comparisons using the Monte Carlo simulations are provided of the inspection times, optimum control schemes issues for different parameters and different sample sizes. Statistical meas

While liquid limits and plasticity index are, respectively, 10–25% with an average of 17.5% and 35%–51% with an average of 43%. According to the unified soil classification system (USCS), these soils

     Many authors investigated the problem of the early visibility of the new crescent moon after the conjunction and proposed many criteria addressing this issue in the literature. This article presented a proposed criterion for early crescent moon sighting based on a deep-learned pattern recognizer artificial neural network (ANN) performance. Moon sight datasets were collected from various sources and used to learn the ANN. The new criterion relied on the crescent width and the arc of vision from the edge of the crescent bright limb. The result of that criterion was a control value indicating the moon's visibility condition, which separated the datasets into four regions: invisible, telescope only, probably visible, and certainly v

     This work includes the synthesis of new ester compounds containing two 1,3,4-oxadiazole rings, 15_a-c and 16_a-c. This was done over seven steps, starting with p-acetamido-phenol 1 and 2-mercaptobenzoimidazole 2. The structure of the products was determined using FT-IR, ¹H NMR, and mass spectroscopy. The evaluation of the antimicrobial activities of some prepared compounds was achieved against four types of bacteria (two types of gram-positive bacteria; Staphylococcus aureus and Bacillus subtilis, and two types of gram-negative bacteria, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and E. Coli), as well as against one types of

     The shear wave sonic (S-wave) log data is essential for identifying the reservoir's geomechanical properties, which is an important factor for the drilling, completion, and optimization processes, where obtaining S-wave requires capital investment and reduces the cost. In this paper, we used the multi-layer perceptron (MLPR) and the gradient boosting regression (GBR) to predict the missing S-Wave log data for the Volve Oil Field in the North Sea. Prescriptive and predictive analysis were carried out in series to achieve a high blind data accuracy rate of 0.943 and 0.982 for the multi-layer perceptron regression and the gradient boosting regression, respectively. It was observed that the gradient-boosting algorithm achieved highe

Many researchers discussed distributive modules and their properties. In this work, the distributive property will be studied over semimodules. Some of the results obtained in homomorphisms of distributive modules are generalized. Some conditions were needed like concept subtractive, i-regular, k-regular, and k-cyclic, to get good results. The relationship between the distributive semimodule over the local semiring and the hollow semimodule was obtained, and the relationship between the distributive semimodule and the homomorphisms distributed over the intersection process or the inverse image distributed over the addition.

    The field of cloud-based electronic government (CBEG) is still expanding. Some conflicting results have been published regarding the factors influencing the adoption of CBEG. The paper aims to review the literature and understand the status of CBEG and the factors behind its adoption. Specific keywords related to the topic were used to extract articles from reliable databases. An extensive review was done on a total of 41 articles published between 2016 and August 2022. The findings showed that there has been an increase in the number of articles related to CBEG, specifically in the public sector. The review also showed that the quantitative approach outperformed other approaches. The Technology Organization Environment (TOE) fram

     Fixed point theory is not only essential in mathematics but also to a vast array of applications. In this approach, we provide some fixed point theorems for fuzzy normed space. The triangle property of a fuzzy norm is introduced first. This property is used to demonstrate some fixed point solutions for self-mappings in fuzzy normed space. To demonstrate the importance of the obtained results, an application for the existence of a solution to the ordinary differential equation and the Fredholm integral equation is constructed.

     Let  be a commutative ring with 1 and  be a left unitary R-module. In this paper, we give a generalization for the notions of compressible (retractable) module. As well as, we study closed (St-closed) compressible and closed (St-closed) retractable. Furthermore, some of their advantages, properties, categorizations and instances have been given. Finally, we study the relation between them.

     In this work, aluminium-doped zinc oxide (AZO) nanostructure at 0.3 wt% and 0.5 wt% Al was synthesized using the pulse-laser ablation technique in liquid(PLAL) using pulsed Nd: YAG laser of a fundamental wavelength of (1064 nm). The process was done in the absence and presence of an external magnetic field. The deposited AZO nanostructures by drop-casting on etched-Si wafers were examined by different techniques. The XRD test illustrates enhancing the crystallinity of the prepared thin films by applying an external magnetic field. The FESEM images displayed the change of nanostructure to nano-sheets of high surface area after using a 77.2 mT permanent magnet placed behind the target during the ablation process. The gas sensor ba

     In this research, silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) were manufactured using aqueous extract of mushroom Pleurotus ostreatus. Anticancer potential of AgNPs was investigated versus human breast cancer cell line (MCF-7). Cytotoxic response was assessed by MTT assay. AgNPs showed inhibition effect at the following concentrations 12.5, 25, 50, 100 and 200 µg/ml versus MCF-7 cell line, and all treatments had a positive result. The MCF-7 cells were inhibited up to 85.14 % at the concentration 200 μg/ml of AgNPs which reduced cells viability to 14.86%, while 12.5 μg/ml of AgNPs caused 24.23% cells inhibition with reduction of cells viability to 75.77%.

     In this paper, we introduce and discuss an extended subclass〖 Ą〗_p^*(λ,α,γ) of meromorphic multivalent functions involving Ruscheweyh derivative operator. Coefficients inequality, distortion theorems, closure theorem for this subclass are obtained.

     The development of two-dimensional chromatography systems is crucial in many scientific fields as it provides improved separation efficiency and selectivity of complex mixtures. By separating compounds based on two independent properties, these systems can offer a more detailed understanding of sample composition. This increased level of detail is particularly useful in industries such as pharmaceuticals, environmental analysis, and proteomics, where complex mixtures with similar properties need to be differentiated. A new chromatography system with two dimensions was developed to separate and quantify specific flavonoids in German wine samples. The first dimension used a homemade hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatographic c

     Many questions and answers about Islamic law are scattered on the internet and have been explained repeatedly by various sites. One solution is presented by the website www.piss-ktb.com, which creates a web-based source of information in the form of Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ). However, web-based FAQs have a weakness: users still have to browse through the available questions one by one according to the questions they want to know the answers to. Browsing through thousands of FAQs is inefficient and exhausting.

Thus, a chatbot system can become a better alternative to the FAQ website. Still, chatbots are difficult to use because most of their conversations are  hard to understand. A single character error will cause
