Background Recently, 3D CINE phase-contrast MRI (4D Flow) has demonstrated potential for quantitative measurement of blood flow of the cardiovascular systems in the entire thoracic trunk [1]. However, the needs of 4D flow for high resolution, large volume coverage & respiratory gating render very long scan time. This work intended to improve the data acquisition efficiency of free-breathing car...

A new method for decision making that uses the ordered weighted averaging (OWA) operator in the aggregation of the information is presented. It is used a concept that it is known in the literature as the index of maximum and minimum level (IMAM). This index is based on distance measures and other techniques that are useful for decision making. By using the OWA operator in the IMAM, we form a ne...

In this paper the substantiation of the method of full averaging for fuzzy differential inclusions is considered. These results generalize the results of [17, 20] for differential inclusions with Hukuhara derivative and of [18] for fuzzy differential equations.

Substantiation of the averaging method for differential equations with maxima is presented. Two theorems on substantiates for differential equations with maxima are established.

Cardiotocography is currently the standard surveillance tool during labour. For this reason, there are large cardiotography datasets available. Several studies gathering additional information of computerized CTG data aiming to improve surveillance during delivery and birth outcome are currently performed. Manual data collection and analysis takes a lot of human resources, is error-prone and st...

Existing intuitionistic linguistic variables can describe the linguistic information of both the truth/membership and falsity/non-membership degrees, but it cannot represent the indeterminate and inconsistent linguistic information. To deal with the issue, this paper originally proposes the concept of a linguistic neutrosophic number (LNN), which is characterized independently by the truth, ind...

In this paper, we present the induced generalized intuitionistic fuzzy ordered weighted averaging (IGIFOWA) operator. It is a new aggregation operator that generalized the IFOWA operator, including all the characteristics of both the generalized IFOWA and the induced IFOWA operators. It provides a very general formulation that includes as special cases a wide range of aggregation operators for ...
