E-learning has recently become of great importance, especially after the emergence of the Corona pandemic, but e-learning has many disadvantages. In order to preserve education, some universities have resorted to using blended learning. Currently, the Ministry of Higher Education and Scientific Research in Iraq has adopted e-learning in universities and schools, especially in scientific disciplines that need laboratories and a spatial presence. In this work, we collected a dataset based on 27 features and presented a model utilizing a support vector machine with regression that was enhanced with the KNN method, which identifies factors that have a substantial influence on the model for the type of education, whether blended or traditiona
... Show MoreStemming is a pre-processing step in Text mining applications as well as it is very important in most of the Information Retrieval systems. The goal of stemming is to reduce different grammatical forms of a word and sometimes derivationally related forms of a word to a common base (root or stem) form like reducing noun, adjective, verb, adverb etc. to its base form. The stem needs not to be identical to the morphological root of the word; it is usually sufficient that related words map to the same stem, even if this stem is not in itself a valid root. As in other languages; there is a need for an effective stemming algorithm for the indexing and retrieval of Arabic documents while the Arabic stemming algorithms are not widely available.
... Show MoreEstablishing coverage of the target sensing field and extending the network’s lifetime, together known as Coverage-lifetime is the key issue in wireless sensor networks (WSNs). Recent studies realize the important role of nature-inspired algorithms in handling coverage-lifetime problem with different optimization aspects. One of the main formulations is to define coverage-lifetime problem as a disjoint set covers problem. In this paper, we propose an evolutionary algorithm for solving coverage-lifetime problem as a disjoint set covers function. The main interest in this paper is to reflect both models of sensing: Boolean and probabilistic. Moreover, a heuristic operator is proposed as a local refinement operator to improve the quality
... Show MoreGroundwater recharge estimation is essential for management of groundwater systems. As groundwater is a vital source of water for domestic and agricultural activities in the study area (Karbala - Najaf plateau), where the Dibdibba aquifer represents the primary and essential aquifer, evaluation of groundwater recharge is critical in the study area. A wide range of methodologies exists for estimating recharge. The water-table fluctuation method strategy might be the most generally utilized system for estimating recharge; it requires learning of changes in water levels over time and specific yield. Advantages of this approach include its simplicity and an insensitivity to the mechanism by which water moves through the unsatu

Ground Penetration Radar (GPR) survey was performed to distinguish between two zero-spaced iron pipes in radargram. The field work was carried out by constructing artificial rectangular models with dimensions of length, width, and depth equal to 10.0, 1.0, 0.65 meter respectively that filled with dry clastic mixture deposit, three twin sets of air filled iron pipes of 15.24 cm (6 inch) diameter were buried horizontally and vertically inside the mixture at different distances together. Visual and Numerical interpretation were chosen to get the best results. In the visual interpretation, the amplitude

taken from the north, south, east, west and center of the city of Baghdad and
measure its impact on the rate of cell division for non-smokers peoples and living in
those areas and that between the ages 25-30 year.
The uranium concentration in the samples determined by using CR-39 track
detector . As calculated for the ten samples of each site when irradiated by thermal
neutrons from the (Am - Be) source with flux (5x 103 n S-1cm-2), the concentration
values were calculated by a comparison with standard geological samples. The
results indicate that the extent of the concentration of uranium in the soil north and
east of Baghdad was 12

Dermatophyte Species Isolated from Leukemia Patients
One of the major environmental problems is the pollution of water and soilsby toxic
heavy metals.The aim of current study was estimatation the ability of Eclipta alba
plant for the removal of (Pb) from the polluted water by phytoremedation technique
and study the effect of a number of parameters(Pb concentration, contact time and
pHvalues). The plant showed higher removal efficiency (99.2%) after 7 days of
treatment at 50ppm.The best removal efficiency of Pb 98.95% at 100ppm was
occurred at pH7. The root ability to accumulate Pb was more than the shoot ability,
after 7 days treatment of water and pH=7, they were 2852.5 mg/kg, 2497.5 mg/kg
and 502.5 mg/kg in roots, stems and leaves respectively. These results showe

Investigations of calcareous nannofossils were done on the Serikagni Formation in the southern limb of the Sinjar anticline northwest of Iraq, specifics of the identification process's investigation (18 species of calcareous nannofossils belonging to 10 genera). Two biozones were proposed in this study based on their stratigraphic distribution, and they are as follows: Triquetrorhabdulus carinatus partial range Biozone CN1 and Sphenolithus belemnos Interval Biozone CN2. Correlation with other calcareous nannofossil biozones from regional schemes led to the conclusion that the Serikagni Formation's age is Early Miocene (Aquitanian)in the studied sections. It can conclude from higher speciation for calcareous nannofossils that the bloom at
... Show MoreClassification accuracy is strongly affected by the quality of the input features. In recent years, datasets have increased in size and number of features. Analysis of huge datasets can be challenging due to redundant, noisy, and irrelevant features that may
reduce the classifier's performance. Feature selection is a vital process in which the best subset of features from the original dataset is chosen. The feature selection strategy is critical for increasing classification accuracy while decreasing computational costs. This research proposed a method for classifying lip print images by exploiting meta-heuristic methods and optimization-based feature selection methods. It involves four main phases: pre-processing, feature extractio
Twenty species were isolated from wounds’ swabs. The most common bacterial species were Pseudomonas aeruginosa (8), Staphylococcus aureus (5), Escherichia coli (5) and S. epidermidis (2). These isolates underwent tests for biofilm formation and susceptibility to ten different antibiotic discs. Most isolates exhibited resistance to amikacin, aztreonam, and carbenicillin. However, they showed some sensitivity to ciprofloxacin, norfloxacin and imipenem. This study found out that all isolates were different in biofilm formation (weak, moderate, strong), except two isolates of E. coli. The determination of β-glucan effects produced by S. cerevisiae against multi-antibiotic resistant wound infection bacteria, were conducted through the Mini

Show MoreIn this paper, an approximation technique is introduced to solve the coupled linear parabolic boundary value problems with variable coefficients by using mixed of the Galerkin finite element method in space variable with implicit finite difference method in the time variable. At any discrete time this technique is transformed the coupled linear parabolic boundary value problems with variable coefficients into a linear algebraic system which is called a Galerkin a linear algebraic system, and then it is solved using the Cholesky Decomposition. Illustration examples are presented and the results are shown by figures and tables, and show the efficiency of the proposed method.
