beside developing strategies, success of organizations depends on alignment of strategies. one of the important functional areas in which companies develop strategies is operation. alignment of operation strategies is called horizontal alignment. the aim of this article is to present a model for alignment of operation strategies. to this end, an original algorithm has been presented by which ho...

this paper presents a data envelopment analysis (dea) model combined with bootstrapping to assess performance of one of the data mining algorithms. we applied a two-step process for performance productivity analysis of insurance branches within a case study. first, using a dea model, the study analyzes the productivity of eighteen decision-making units (dmus). using a malmquist index, dea deter...

Nowadays high fuzzy utility based pattern mining is an emerging topic in data mining. It refers to discover all patterns having a high utility meeting a user-specified minimum high utility threshold. It comprises extracting patterns which are highly accessed in mobile web service sequences. Different from the traditional fuzzy approach, high fuzzy utility mining considers not only counts of mob...

Deriving insights from high-dimensional data is one of the core problems in data mining. The difficulty mainly stems from the fact that there are exponentially many variable combinations to potentially consider, and there are infinitely many if we consider weighted combinations, even for linear combinations. Hence, an obvious question is whether we can automate the search for interesting patter...

the success or failure of an organization has a direct relationship with how its human resources are employed and retained. it is the case that organizations keep large amounts of information and data on entrance evaluations and processes. this information, however, is often left unutilized. data mining is considered a solution for analyzing these data. this paper is investigating educated and ...

The concept of intelligently controlling the search process of gravitational search algorithm (GSA) is introduced to develop a novel data mining technique. The proposed method is called fuzzy GSA miner (FGSA-miner). At first a fuzzy controller is designed for adaptively controlling the gravitational coefficient and the number of effective objects, as two important parameters which play major ro...
