Classification Models in Clinical Decision Making

Evaluation of clinical decision models of hemodialysis nurses in Urmia in 2020-2021

Background & Aims: Nurses are the largest group of health care providers and their decisions play a very important role in the clinical fate of patients. Due to the importance of nurseschr('39') decisions, this study was conducted to investigate the clinical decision-making ability of hemodialysis nurses in Urmia hospitals. Materials & Methods: The present study is a descriptive cross-sectional...

A Method for DMUs Classification in DEA

In data envelopment analysis, anyone can do classification decision units with efficiency scores. It will be interesting if a method for classification of DMUs without regarding to efficiency score is obtained. So in this paper, the classification of Decision Making Units (DMUs) is done according to the additive model without being solved for obtaining scores efficiency. This is because it ...

Economics Prioritization of the Allocation of Chahnimeh Reservoir Water Using Fuzzy Multiple-Criteria Decision-Making (FMCDM) Models

The main objective of the present study was to prioritize the allocation of water resources of Chahnimeh reservoirs from economic, social, and environmental perspectives in 2015-2016 season using fuzzy analytic hierarchy process (FAHP) and fuzzy technique for order preference by similarity of an ideal solution (FTOPSIS) as the branches of fuzzy multiple-criteria decision-making (MCDM) models. D...

Pedestrian Gap Acceptance Logit Model in Unsignalized Crosswalks Conflict Zone

Pedestrians are the most vulnerable road users. For evaluating and modifying pedestrian safety in unsignalized crosswalks,the first important issue is to identify and explore factors affecting the interaction behavior of pedestrians andvehicles in conflict areas. By analyzing those factors and determining how they affect road user's behavior, we canrepresent the plans and proc...

Data mining for decision making in engineering optimal design

Often in modeling the engineering optimization design problems, the value of objective function(s) is not clearly defined in terms of design variables. Instead it is obtained by some numerical analysis such as FE structural analysis, fluid mechanic analysis, and thermodynamic analysis, etc. Yet, the numerical analyses are considerably time consuming to obtain the final value of objective functi...
