In this paper, we introduce a more general approach to the fuzzification of fuzzy concavity. More specifically, degree L , M -fuzzy concavity is introduced and characterized as generalization id="M2"> -concave structure id="M3"> conca...

A Gamma distributed response is subjected to regression penalized likelihood estimations of Least Absolute Shrinkage and Selection Operator (LASSO) Minimax Concave Penalty via Generalized Linear Models (GLMs). The related disturbance controls the influence skewness spread in corrected path solutions coefficients.

This paper deals with maximization of set f'unctions delined as minimum values of monotone linkage functions. In previous research, it has been shown that such a set function can be maximized by a greedy type algorithm over a family of all subsets of a finite set. ln this paper, we extend this finding to meet-semilattices. We show that the class of functions defined as minimum values of monoton...

A linear time dependent singularly perturbed convection-diffusion problem is examined. The convective coefficient contains an interior layer (with a hyperbolic tangent profile), which in turn induces an interior layer in the solution. A numerical method consisting of a monotone finite difference operator and a piecewise-uniform Shishkin mesh is constructed and analysed. Neglecting logarithmic f...

In this paper, we introduce a new class of sets, namely semi*δ-open sets, using δ-open sets and the generalized closure operator. We find characterizations of semi*δ-open sets. We also define the semi*δ-interior of a subset. Further, we study some fundamental properties of semi*δ-open sets and semi*δ-interior.

A fault ring is a connection of only nonfaulty adjacent nodes and links such that the interior of the ring contains only faulty components. This paper proposes two wormhole routing algorithms that deal with more relaxed shapes of fault rings than previously known algorithms [1, 2, 3] in the mesh networks. As a result, the number of components to be made disabled would be reduced considerably in...

Two agents bargain over the allocation of a bundle of divisible commodities. After strategically reporting utility functions to a neutral arbitrator, the outcome is decided by using a bargaining solution concept chosen from a family that includes the Nash and the Raiffa-Kalai-Smorodinsky solutions. When reports are restricted to be continuous, strictly increasing and concave, it has been shown ...

In this paper, we introduce the notions of L-fuzzy quasi-uniformities and Lfuzzy interior operators in complete residuated lattices. We investigate the L-fuzzy quasiuniformities induced by L-fuzzy interior operators. We study the relationships between Lfuzzy interior operators and L-fuzzy quasi-uniformities. We give their examples. AMS Subject Classification: 03E72, 06A15, 06F07, 54F05

One of the earliest and most well known problems in computational geometry is the socalled art gallery problem. The goal is to compute the minimum possible number guards placed on the vertices of a simple polygon in such a way that they cover the interior of the polygon. In this paper we consider the problem of guarding an art gallery which is modeled as a polygon with curvilinear walls. Our ma...
