Global sensitivity analysis is an important tool for uncertainty analysis of systems with uncertain model parameters. A general framework for the determination of sensitivity measures for fuzzy uncertainty analysis is presented. The derivation is founded on the high-dimensional model representation, which provides a common basis with Sobol indices, illustrating the similarities and di erences o...

A fuzzy queuing coherent hierarchical location-allocation model is developed for congested systems. The parameters of the model are approximately evaluated and stated as fuzzy-numbers. The coverage of demand nodes is also considered in an approximate manner and is stated by the degree of membership. Using the queuing theory and fuzzy conditions, a coherent hierarchical model is developed for th...

The subject of this paper is the control of autonomous vehicles. A hierarchical approach is studied in the context of fuzzy systems and a programming language for the mid to low level control of autonomous vehicles is described. The language, called FDTL (Fuzzy Decision Tree Language), is based on a computational model that combines fuzzy rule based control with the hierarchical nature of decis...

In this work the importance of fuzzy based clustering methods is highlighted and their applications in the field of chemoinformatics, and issues involved are reviewed. The various methods and approaches of fuzzy clustering are outlined. The issue of number of valid clusters in a dataset is also discussed. The hyper dimensional chemical datasets are traditionally been treated only with the help ...

conflagration of forests and rangelands is one of the most frequent events in iran. it is regarded as one of the most important parts of land degradation that occurred due to range destruction and desertification. this study was conducted in boroujerd, lorestan province in west of iran in 2013 to determine the fire risk model. the data prepared for the study area involved the vegetation types, ...

An intelligent cardiovascular disease (CVD) diagnosis system using hemodynamic parameters (HDPs) derived from sphygmogram (SPG) signal is presented to support the emerging patient-centric healthcare models. To replicate clinical approach of diagnosis through a staged decision process, the Bayesian inference nets (BIN) are adapted. New approaches to construct a hierarchical multistage BIN using ...

inthis article we offer a method of ranking contractors by using dea based onanalysis deficit and ahp. the process of hierarchical analysis (ahp) byproviding scales from paired comparison matrix, performs the contractor’sprioritizing choice. but ahp has some problems and to solve those problems,jahanshahloo and his colleagues presented a new model which uses dea andstandard deviation. in this a...

As customers are the main asset of any organization, customer churn management is becoming a major task for organizations to retain their valuable customers. In the previous studies, the applicability and efficiency of hierarchical data mining techniques for churn prediction by combining two or more techniques have been proved to provide better performances than many single techniques over a nu...
