A combination of geographic information system (GIS) and spatial multicriteria decision making (MCDA) in mine water inrush risk evaluation is widely used, but the randomness process index weight determination risk-coping attitude makers are not considered process. Therefore, this paper proposes a probability-based roof method (GIS-MCDA) by combining Monte Carlo analytic hierarchy (MAHP) ordered...

Group decision-making problems are situations where a number of experts work in a decision process to obtain a final value that is representative of the global opinion. One of the main problems in this context is to design aggregation operators that take into account the individual opinions of the decision makers. One of the most important operators used for synthesizing the individual opinions...

No study has so far evaluated the impact of coffee drinking on ocular wavefront aberration (OWA) measurements. This study presents novel findings regarding the OWA of the eye following coffee intake. We aimed to evaluate the acute changes in pupil size and OWA of the eye after single administration of coffee. A total of 30 otherwise healthy participants were included in this prospective study. ...

This paper concerns with rank-dependent poverty measures and shows that an ordered weighted averaging, hereafter OWA, operator is underlying in the definition of these indices. The dual decomposition of an OWA operator into the self-dual core and the anti-self-dual remainder allows us to propose a decomposition for all the rank-dependent poverty measures in terms of incidence, intensity and ine...

It has a wide attention about the methods for determining OWA operator weights. At the beginning of this dissertation, we provide a briefly overview of the main approaches for obtaining the OWA weights with a predefined degree of orness. Along this line, we nextmake an important generalization of these approaches as a special case of the well-known andmore general problem of calculation of the ...

The conventional method of aggregating the satisfaction of transport projects with respect to multiple attributes is commonly some variant of Simple Additive Weighting (SAW), which involves the sum of products of standardized outcomes of projects with respect to attributes and attribute importance weights. It is suggested that alternative forms of aggregation might be more useful, in particular...

We obtain a sharp constant of the sufficient condition for p-valently starlikeness, which had been studied by Nunokawa (1991), Obradovíc and Owa (1989), and Li (1993). 2000 Mathematics Subject Classification. Primary 30C45.

In this paper, we focus on the aggregation problem for (trust, distrust) couples in trust networks. In particular, we study approaches based on classical and induced ordered weighted averaging (OWA) operators.

Decision-making methods are widely used in renewable energy source (RES) investment. In practical applications, various conditions need to be considered during the decision-making process, such as uncertainty and reliability of information, dependence among criteria, different risk preferences decision makers. However, there is currently a lack effective consideration all these conditions. this...
