The determination of ordered weighted averaging (OWA) operator weights is a very important issue of applying the OWA operator for decision making. One of the first approaches, suggested by O’Hagan, determines a special class of OWA operators having maximal entropy of the OWA weights for a given level of orness; algorithmically it is based on the solution of a constrained optimization problem. I...

The class of motion estimation algorithms known as backward methods have the advantage of dense motion eld sampling, and in coding applications the decoder needs no motion information from the coder. In this paper, we rst present an overview of operator based motion compensators with interpolative and non-interpolative kernels. We then proceed with two new results. The rst ooers a new perspecti...

Stochastic Search and Surveillance Strategies for Mixed Human-Robot Teams Vaibhav Srivastava Mixed human-robot teams are becoming increasingly important in complex and information rich systems. The purpose of the mixed teams is to exploit the human cognitive abilities in complex missions. It has been evident that the information overload in these complex missions has a detrimental effect on the...

Traditional genetic algorithm trapped into the local minimum easily. Therefore, based on a simple genetic algorithm and combine the base ideology of orthogonal design method then applied it to the population initialization, using the intergenerational elite mechanism, as well as the introduction of adaptive local search operator to prevent trapped into the local minimum and improve the converge...

this paper presents characterizations of m-fuzzifying matroids bymeans of two kinds of fuzzy operators, called m-fuzzifying derived operatorsand m-fuzzifying difference derived operators.

we characterize compact composition operators on real banach spaces of complex-valued bounded lipschitz functions on metric spaces, not necessarily compact, with lipschitz involutions and determine their spectra.

most of the erythrocyte related diseases are detectable by hematology images analysis. at the first step of this analysis, segmentation and detection of blood cells are inevitable. in this study, a novel method using a line operator and watershed algorithm is rendered for erythrocyte detection and segmentation in blood smear images, as well as reducing over-segmentation in watershed algorithm t...

We consider the problem of link capacity dimensioning and routing optimization in networks that support elastic flows and maintain proportional fairness among these flows. We assume that each demand between the origin-destination (O-D) pairs is associated with a minimum and a maximum bandwidth requirement and that a certain allocated bandwidth to a user demand (which must be between this minimu...

‎in this short note‎, ‎we present some inequalities for relative operator entropy which are generalizations of some results obtained by zou [operator inequalities associated with tsallis relative operator entropy‎, ‎{em math‎. ‎inequal‎. ‎appl.}‎ ‎{18} (2015)‎, ‎no‎. ‎2‎, ‎401--406]‎. ‎meanwhile‎, ‎we also show some new lower and upper bounds for relative operator entropy and tsallis relative o...

Trapezoidal intuitionistic fuzzy numbers (TrIFNs) express abundant and flexible information in a suitable manner and  are very useful to depict the decision information in the procedure of decision making. In this paper, some new aggregation operators, such as, trapezoidal intuitionistic fuzzy weighted power harmonic mean (TrIFWPHM) operator, trapezoidal intuitionistic fuzzy ordered weighted po...
