We explore how belief aggregation in the fuzzy framework can be molded into an optimization problem which helps avoid paradoxical outcomes without the fear of indecision. We further illustrate that depending on the choice of t -norm and fuzzy implication, we can find aggregation functions that produce collectively rational outcome without compromising on systematicity.

Malate Synthase, Small-Angle X-Ray Scattering, X-Ray Induced Aggregation, Computer Simula­ tions, Models for the Aggregation Process Malate synthase undergoes an X-ray induced aggregation which can be monitored in situ by small-angle X-ray scattering; the analysis of scattering curves, taken at subsequent stages of aggregation, has led to the establishment of a tentative model for an aggregatio...

This work presents a systematic study of asphaltene pre-aggregation phenomena in the absence and presence ionic liquids (ILs) from family 1-alkyl-3-methylimidazolium by molecular dynamics simulations. The effects alkyl chain length cation (studying ILs with chains between C4 C10) dimension anion (testing chloride bromide) on aggregation behavior asphaltenes have been studied. To correlate resul...

We propose a novel CNN architecture called ACTNET for robust instance image retrieval from large-scale datasets. Our key innovation is learnable activation layer designed to improve the signal-to-noise ratio of deep convolutional feature maps. Further, we introduce controlled multi-stream aggregation, where complementary features different layers are optimally transformed and balanced using our...
