In this paper, we investigate the multiple attribute decision making (MADM) problem based on the arithmetic and geometric aggregation operators with hesitant fuzzy linguistic information. Then, motivated by the idea of traditional arithmetic operation, we have developed some aggregation operators for aggregating hesitant fuzzy linguistic information: hesitant fuzzy linguistic weighted average (...

background: protein aggregation is one of the important, common and troubling problems in biotechnology, pharmaceutical industries and amyloid-related disorders. methods: in the present study, the inhibitory effects of some carbohydrates (alginate, β-cyclodextrin and trehalose) on the formation of nano-globular aggregates from normal (hsa) and glycated (ghsa) human serum albumin were studied; w...

Abstract-VoIP services are getting more and more popular day by day. In order to meet the users demand for such services irrespective of users location requires wide area wireless coverage .To this extent, wireless mesh networks have been considered as practical and inexpensive solution .In order to improve the performance of VoIP services, techniques like packet aggregation are done . This pap...

In the study, we propose the Associated Probability Intuitionistic Fuzzy Weighted Averaging (As-P-IFWA) and the Associated Probability Intuitionistic Fuzzy Weighted Geometric (As-P-IFWG) aggregation operators with associated probabilities of a fuzzy measure presenting an uncertainty. Decision makers' evaluations are given as intuitionistic fuzzy values and are used as the arguments of the aggre...

We investigate biases in farm-level yield risk analysis caused by data aggregation from the farm-level to regional and national levels using the example of Swiss wheat and barley yields. The estimated yield variability decreases significantly with increasing level of aggregation, with crop yield variability at the farm-level being up to 2.38 times higher than indicated from national data. Our r...

OBJECTIVE To specify the problem of patient-level temporal aggregation from clinical text and introduce several probabilistic methods for addressing that problem. The patient-level perspective differs from the prevailing natural language processing (NLP) practice of evaluating at the term, event, sentence, document, or visit level. METHODS We utilized an existing pediatric asthma cohort with ...

Platelets clump together by two different processes: agglutination and aggregation. Agglutination is a passive process, independent of the metabolic status of the platelets. It is a physical phenomenon of binding of a protein or glycoprotein, which has two or more binding domains. In contrast, platelet aggregation is a metabolically active, transmembrane process that requires “live” platelets. ...

protein aggregation is thought to be the pathological driving force responsible for neurodegenerative disorders such as alzheimer’s, parkinson’s, huntington’s, frontotemporal dementia, dementia with lewy bodies and prion diseases, however, it is not yet clear whether, or to what extent, the misfolded proteins are the cause of the diseases rather than the consequences. the aggregated proteins th...

A probabilistic model was developed to assess the impact of two independent dichotomous familial risk factors on familial aggregation of a disorder in pairs of relatives where one member was ascertained as a proband or index subject (i.e., a case or control). Under this model, one risk factor is of primary interest (i.e., a susceptibility gene), while the effect of the other is to be controlled...
