ROSMAN: ROugh Set approach for clustering Supplier base MANagement
نویسندگان
چکیده
Supply chain and industrial cluster are the results of competition economy. Clustering analysis enable more efficient supply chain management practices. In this paper, we focus our discussion on the rough set theory for clustering supplier chain management. We propose ROSMAN (ROugh Set approach for clustering Supplier chain MANagement), an alternative algorithm for clustering supplier base management based on rough set theory taking into account maximal attributes dependencies in an information system. Experimental result on a supplier data set shows that ROSMAN technique is better with the baseline supplier base management clustering algorithm with respect to computational complexity and clusters purity.

A Clustering Algorithm for Supplier Base Management
Supplier base management is an important strategy for managing today’s global, customer driven supply chains. Successful supplier base management can effectively handle supply side exceptions, which may have significant business implications. The goal of this research is to present a clustering algorithm, named Max-Max-Roughness (MMR) to cluster suppliers into manageable smaller groups with sim...
متن کاملRough Set Approach for Categorical Data Clustering
A few techniques of rough categorical data clustering exist to group objects having similar characteristics. However, the performance of the techniques is an issue due to low accuracy, high computational complexity and clusters purity. This work proposes a new technique called Maximum Dependency Attributes (MDA) to improve the previous techniques due to these issues. The proposed technique is b...

متن کاملReduction and Optimization of Supplier Risk Indicators Based on Rough Set
The determination of supplier risk indicators is complex. Using vast data from SAP system of the enterprise, risk warning indicators can be reduced and optimized by the method of rough set. First of all, extract historical data from SAP system, and determine the discrete rules as excellent, good, moderate, and poor for each risk indicators to construct knowledge set which can be used for rough ...
