Fuzzy Set Theory For Cumulative Trauma Prediction
نویسندگان
چکیده
A widely used fuzzy reasoning algorithm was modified and implemented via an expert system to assess the potential risk of employee repetitive strain injury in the workplace. This fuzzy relational model, known as the Priority First Cover Algorithm (PFC), was adapted to describe the relationship between 12 cumulative trauma disorders (CTDs) of the upper extremity, and 29 identified risk factors. The algorithm, which finds a suboptimal subset from a group of variables based on the criterion of priority, was adopted to enable the inference mechanism of a constructed knowledge-based system to predict CTD occurrence.

Type-2 fuzzy set theory is one of the most powerful tools for dealing with the uncertainty and imperfection in dynamic and complex environments. The applications of type-2 fuzzy sets and soft computing methods are rapidly emerging in the ecological fields such as air pollution and weather prediction. The air pollution problem is a major public health problem in many cities of the world. Predict...
متن کاملRepresentation of the utility functional by two fuzzy integrals
In the cumulative prospect theory (CPT) the preference (utility functional) is represented by the difference of two Choquet integrals. We investigate representations of the corresponding functional by two fuzzy integrals, specially the difference representations of the asymmetric Choquet integral with respect to a signed fuzzy measure with bounded chain variation. We discuss non-monotone, real ...

Bi-capacities arise as a natural generalization of capacities (or fuzzy measures) in a context of decision making where underlying scales are bipolar. They are able to capture a wide variety of decision behaviours, encompassing models such as Cumulative Prospect Theory (CPT). The aim of this paper in two parts is to present the machinery behind bicapacities, and thus remains on a rather theoret...

The classification and regression trees (CART) possess the advantage of being able to handlelarge data sets and yield readily interpretable models. In spite to these advantages, they are alsorecognized as highly unstable classifiers with respect to minor perturbations in the training data.In the other words methods present high variance. Fuzzy logic brings in an improvement in theseaspects due ...
