Convolutional neural networks show outstanding performance in many image processing problems, such as image recognition, object detection and image segmentation. Semantic segmentation is a very challenging task that requires ...

The Firefly optimization algorithm (FA) is one of the practical nature-inspired metaheuristic approaches in 2008, which simulated the behavior of fireflies in the movement toward the light sources. Recent studies on this ...

The aim of this paper is to elaborate on an attempt to classify Persian news headlines using machine learning techniques rather than human-based analysis. Three major techniques namely Naïve Bayes, Maximum Entropy and ...

In this paper, a novel filter-based approach is proposed using the PageRank algorithm to select the optimal subset of features as well as to compute their weights for web page classification. To evaluate the proposed ...
