Citation has always been a crucial part of research when it comes to accreditation for intellectual property. The maintenance of these references has mostly been the sole responsibility of the author to collect, maintain and format. There are tools to assist in this regard, both commercial and open source with varying degrees of support for user specific needs, yet it became apparent that a gap...

A collective choice problem essentially a bargaining problem without disagreement outcome is studied. An exteneded solution, which determines simultaneously a solution and a reference point, is characterized through a system of axioms. It is proved that the unique extended solution meeting Pareto-optimality, independence of irrelevant alternatives, symmetry, and scale invariance axioms maximize...

For many environmental indicators, the sustainable status can change because of changes in either monitored state or policy goal. Fisheries provide an intensively setting to investigate relative impacts such change. Key fisheries sustainability indicators comprise ratio between fishing pressure biomass and their respective reference levels. We developed a retrospective database population statu...

this paper presents fuzzy and conventional performance of model reference adaptive control(mrac) to control a dc drive. the aims of this work are achieving better match of motor speed with reference speed, decrease of noises under load changes and disturbances, and increase of system stability. the operation of nonadaptive control and the model reference of fuzzy and conventional adaptive contr...

in this paper, by means of fuzzy approaches, an accurate method is introduced for edging of color photographs. the difference between our method with other similar methods is the use of a morphological operation to think or thick the obtained edges. in this proposed method, a 3×3 window is dragged on the photo. for each block, 12 point sets will be defined, each including two non-overlapping po...
