The u-invariant of the function fields of p-adic curves
The u-invariant of a field is the maximum dimension of ansiotropic quadratic
forms over the field. It is an open question whether the u-invariant of
function fields of p-aidc curves is 8. In this paper, we answer this question
in the affirmative for function fields of non-dyadic p-adic curves.Comment: 20 page
A Study of Spam E-mail classification using Feature Selection package
Feature selection (FS) is the technique of selecting a subset of relevant features for building learning models. FS algorithms typically fall into two categories: feature ranking and subset selection. Feature ranking ranks the features by a metric and eliminates all features that do not achieve an adequate score. Subset selection searches the set of possible features for the optimal subset. Many FS algorithm have been proposed. This paper presents a new FS technique which is guided by Fselector Package. The package Fselector implements a novel FS algorithm which is devoted to the feature ranking and feature subset selection of high dimensional data. This package provides functions for selecting attributes from a given dataset. Attribute subset selection is the process of identifying and removing as much of the irrelevant and redundant information as possible. The R package provides a convenient interface to the algorithm. This paper investigates the effectiveness of twelve commonly used FS methods on spam data set. One of the basic popular methods involves filter which select the subset of feature as preprocessing step independent of chosen classifier, Support vector machine classifier. The algorithm is designed as a wrapper around five classification algorithms. The short description of the algorithm and performance measure of its classification is presented with the spam data set
Investigations on the Problem of Moisture Absorption13; by Kevlar Fibres
Kevlar fibres are know, to have affinity for moisture. We have investigated (i) the effect of relative humidity (RH) of ambient atmosphere and ( ii ) the effect of crystallinity of fibres on the process of moisture uptake.13; For RH values ranging fran 3 to 80% variation of moisture content of initially dry fibres with time has been measured. It is found that saturation moisture content varies with RH value. Specimens in which crystallinity has been reduced by apropriate treatmrent exhibit a marked increase in moisture content.Experiments on the effect of soaking the fibres in water at 26xB0;C and 98xB0;C have also been carried out. The site of ITOisture absorption has been studied using X-ray of dry Kevlar 49 fibres and those with clifferent levels13; of misture content. The results suggest that water molecules do not enter the unit cell
