This paper applies a new multi attribute decision-making (MADM) model to help companies for enterprise resource planning (ERP) selection problem based on Balanced Score Card method. This paper uses three-parameter interval grey numbers which is derived from Grey theory (was proposed by J. Deng). This numbers is used instead of linguistic variables. Beside, a new weighting method that outcomes f...

The grey-weighted Markov model is a prediction model integrating the advantages of grey model and Markov chain model. It can be applied to predict the highway passenger transport quantum. Compared with grey model, the grey-weighted Markov chain model improved the precise of prediction, so the combined model was more appropriate for the prediction of highway passenger transport. Based on the ori...

In recent years, the problem of selecting and evaluating the suppliers in supply chain management has aroused considerable interest in business firms. Owing to the development of information systems, reaching an appropriate decision for adopting discrete methods is a need. The researchers intend to present a new model in this paper as a contributing factor in the grey environment in which the r...

OBJECTIVE Brain regions responsible for cognitive dysfunction in MS and neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) are not known. Our aim of this study was to investigate whether cognitive function and brain volume differed between MS and NMOSD in Japanese patients. METHODS Brain MRI and neuropsychological tests including the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale-III (WAIS-III), Wechsler Memo...

Aggregation of different variables into one road safety performance index is a popular concept in evaluating and comparing the territories/entities. This paper presents development novel innovative weighting methodology using grey relational analysis. Based on proposed model, ten hierarchical indicators were selected terms two-layered model with three categories related to behaviour, system. Gr...

Concept formation is the ability to create an abstract link between dissimilar objects or thoughts and is crucial for abstract and creative thinking. This process is related to the integrity of the prefrontal cortex, given the altered performances reported in patients with frontal damage, particularly those suffering from the behavioural variant of frontotemporal dementia. However, the cognitiv...
