A generalized relative quality (RQ) assessment scheme is proposed here based on the Bayesian inference theory, which is reasonable to make use of full reference (FR) algorithms when the evaluation of the quality of homogeneous medical images is required. Each FR algorithm is taken as a kernel to represent the level of quality. Although, various kernels generate different order of magnitude, a n...

We develop a new decision making approach for dealing with uncertain information and apply it in tourism management. We use a new aggregation operator that uses the uncertain weighted average (UWA) and the uncertain induced ordered weighted averaging (UIOWA) operator in the same formulation. We call it the uncertain induced ordered weighted averaging – weighted averaging (UIOWAWA) operator. We ...

Xu and Da [Z.S. Xu, Q.L. Da, The uncertain OWA operator, International Journal of Intelligent Systems, 17 (2002) 569–575] introduced the uncertain ordered weighted averaging (UOWA) operator to aggregate the input arguments taking the form of intervals rather than exact numbers. In this paper, we develop some dependent uncertain ordered weighted aggregation operators, including dependent uncerta...

Objetivo: Expor em detalhes o processamento da imagem ponderada em suscetibilidade magnética (susceptibility weighted imaging – SWI), destacando o efeito da escolha do tempo de eco e da máscara sensível à diferenciação de calcificação e hemossiderina simul-

background and objectives: it has been shown that a bout of jumping exercise with weighted vests increases the subsequent countermovement jump height. however, it is not clear whether the improvement in jump height is due to the enhancement of joint power or due to other mechanisms such as neural adaptations. methods: to investigate this dichotomy, we tested the acute neuromechanical changes fo...
