In this article, we use innovative full-text citation analysis along with supervised topic modeling and networkanalysis algorithms to enhance classical bibliometric analysis and publication/author/venue ranking. By utilizing citation contexts extracted from a large number of full-text publications, each citation or publication is represented by a probability distribution over a set of predefine...

In this paper we will show that Grammatical Inference is applicable to Natural Language Processing. Given the wide and complex range of structures appearing in an unrestricted Natural Language like English, full Grammatical Inference, yielding a comprehensive syntactic and semantic definition of English, is too much to hope for at present. Instead, we focus on techniques for dealing with ambigu...

In this paper, we reformulate the conventional DEA models as an imprecise problem and propose a novel method for evaluating DMUs when inputs outputs are fuzzy and/or ordinal or vary in intervals. For purpose, convert all data into interval data. order to each number data, use nearest weighted approximation of numbers by applying weighting function, one. manner, could The presented determine eff...

The research on supplier selection is abundant and the works usually only consider the critical success factors in the buyer–supplier relationship. However, the negative aspects of the buyer–supplier relationship must also be considered simultaneously. In this paper we propose a comprehensive model for ranking an arbitrary number of suppliers, selecting a number of them and allocating a quota o...

The Leiden Ranking 2011/2012 is a ranking of universities based on bibliometric indicators of publication output, citation impact, and scientific collaboration. The ranking includes 500 major universities from 41 different countries. This paper provides an extensive discussion of the Leiden Ranking 2011/2012. The ranking is compared with other global university rankings, in particular the Acade...

A new approach for ranking fuzzy numbers based on a distance measure is introduced. A new class of distance measures for interval numbers that takes into account all the points in both intervals is developed -rst, and then it is used to formulate the distance measure for fuzzy numbers. The approach is illustrated by numerical examples, showing that it overcomes several shortcomings such as the ...
