Conventional data envelopment analysis (DEA) for measuring the relative efficiency of a set of decisionmaking units (DMUs) requires the observations to have precise values. When observations are imprecise and represented by interval values, the efficiencies are also expected to reflect interval values. Several methods exist to calculate the interval overall and technical efficiencies, but such ...

in this paper,  we introduce  the notion of $m$-fuzzifying interval spaces, and discuss the relationship between $m$-fuzzifying interval spaces and $m$-fuzzifying convex structures.it is proved that  the category  {bf mycsa2}  can be embedded in  the category  {bf  myis}  as a reflective subcategory, where  {bf mycsa2} and   {bf  myis} denote  the category of $m$-fuzzifying convex structures of...

Previous investigations on the subjective scale of numerical representations assumed that the scale type can be inferred directly from stimulus-response mapping. This is not a valid assumption, as mapping from the subjective scale into behavior may be nonlinear and/or distorted by response bias. Here we present a method for differentiating between logarithmic and linear hypotheses robust to the...

This paper quantitatively evaluates the mutually compensatory property in audio–video transmission over the Internet by the psychometric method. In our previous study, we used MOS (Mean Opinion Score) as the user–level QoS parameter; however, MOS is an ordinal scale, and therefore, its value does not necessarily represent exact difference between the observer’s sensory magnitude. In order to so...

background: prolongation of qt interval is one of the most important abnormalities in cardiovascular system of cirrhotic patients. the aim of this survey was determination of propranolol effect on frequency adjusted qt interval (qtc). materials and methods: thirty six cirrhotic patients (m/f=20/16, mean age:56 â± 3.8 years) and 40 healthy age and sex matched controls (m/f=25/15, mean age: 58 â±...

ramadan fasting is one of the most important religious duties of muslims, that its effect on the heart has not been determined yet. our objective was to evaluate the effect of ramadan fasting on ventricular repolarization as assessed by qt interval, corrected qt interval, qt dispersion or corrected qt dispersion. sixthy healthy subjects aged 20 to 35 years were dispersion included in this study...

We derive some estimators of the scale parameter Rayleigh distribution under unified hybrid censoring scheme. also reliability function and entropy distribution. First, we obtain maximum likelihood estimator parameter. Second, Bayes using mean posterior Lastly, mode interval estimation (confidence interval, credible HPD interval) for compare proposed in sense squared error through Monte Carlo s...
