Problem statement: The “Energy Policy for Europe, EPE” and three environmental directives, proposed by the European Union (EU) in 2007, are stricter than those self-restrained by the enterprises. For this reason, the enterprises have to shortly improve their products for meeting with the strict requests setup by the EU. Consequently, it becomes even more important that the manufacturers evaluat...

Abstract— Clustering is a powerful technique of data mining for extracting useful information from a set of data and classifies the data into several clusters based on similarity of the pattern. This paper presents the quality estimation for students’ projects data based on hierarchical clustering and fuzzy clustering using Min-Max method. From the experimental results it is seen the fuzzy clus...

Conventional clustering means classifying the given data objects as exclusive subsets (clusters).That means we can discriminate clearly whether an object belongs to a cluster or not. However such a partition is insufficient to represent many real situations. Therefore a fuzzy clustering method is offered to construct clusters with uncertain boundaries and allows that one object belongs to overl...

This paper develops a quality estimation method with the application of fuzzy hierarchical clustering. Quality estimation is essential to quality control and quality improvement as a precise estimation can promote a right decision-making in order to help better quality control. Normally the quality of finished products in manufacturing system can be differentiated by quality standards. In the r...

In this paper a novel method for designing hierarchical fuzzy logic Systems are investigated. A new method using genetic algorithms for design of hierarchical fuzzy logic systems are proposed. The proposed method is then applied to financial modelling and prediction. A hierarchical fuzzy logic system is developed to predict quarterly interest rates in Australia. The new method proposed determin...

Fourth party logistics (4PL) company plays the role of integrator, which provides both information technology and supply chain integration capabilities. It not only creates different values of each segment in the supply chain, but also elevates the effects in supply chain management for business. Therefore, how to select an appropriate fourth party logistics company is an important decision for...

Covid-19 has posed difficult and challenging situations to the supply chains companies are in fix how choose vendors under uncertainty complexity recent years. Therefore, this research aims incorporate structural transformation of fuzzy analytical hierarchy process (FAHP) that is most appropriate for disruption caused by like situation ensuring supplies from vendors. The conventional approaches...
