Weighted mean: A possible method to express overall Dhatu Sarata

Several questions are being raised regarding the accuracy of the methods of diagnosis and reporting of various clinical parameters according to Ayurveda in recent times. Uniformity in reporting, issues related to inter-rater variability, uniformity in applying statistical tests, reliability, consistency, and validation of various tools, - are some of the major concerns that are being voiced.

A Multi-Objective Particle Swarm Optimization Algorithm for a Possibilistic Open Shop Problem to Minimize Weighted Mean Tardiness and Weighted Mean Completion Times

We consider an open shop scheduling problem. At first, a bi-objective possibilistic mixed-integer programming formulation is developed. The inherent uncertainty in processing times and due dates as fuzzy parameters, machine-dependent setup times and removal times are the special features of this model. The considered bi-objectives are to minimize the weighted mean tardiness and weighted mean co...

A weighted metric method to optimize multi-response robust problems

In a robust parameter design (RPD) problem, the experimenter is interested to determine the values of con-trol factors such that responses will be robust or insensitive to variability of the noise factors. Response sur-face methodology (RSM) is one of the effective methods that can be employed for this purpose. Since quality of products or processes is usually evaluated through several quality ...

Some weighted operator geometric mean inequalities

In this paper, using the extended Holder- -McCarthy inequality, several inequalities involving the α-weighted geometric mean (0<α<1) of two positive operators are established. In particular, it is proved that if A,B,X,Y∈B(H) such that A and B are two positive invertible operators, then for all r ≥1, ‖X^* (A⋕_α B)Y‖^r≤‖〖(X〗^* AX)^r ‖^((1-α)/2) ‖〖(Y〗^* AY)^r ‖^((1-α)/2) ‖〖(X〗^* BX)^r ‖^(α/2) ‖〖(Y...
