the traditional fuzzy operators, such as t-norms, t-conorms and averaging operators have been used for soil suitability evaluation to aggregate criteria as an overall suitability index. however, such operators do not account for the degree of compensation common to human aggregation criteria, especially in the presence of conflicting criteria. fuzzy integrals are powerful and flexible aggregati...

in this paper, acceptance criteria of steel building code, comprehensive and quick evaluation procedures for x-bracing, are compared to each other parametrically and numerically. for this purpose, it is assumed first that the sample building is designed to meet steel building code and then by introducing transform parameters and using stress ratio of the designed components, acceptance of the d...

In this study, Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST), modified RECIST (mRECIST), Choi and modified Choi criteria were compared to determine which method is optimal for response evaluation in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients treated with transarterial radioembolization (TARE) with yttrium-90 microspheres. Responses were evaluated by RECIST, mRECIST, Choi and modified Choi ...

Several researchers initiated their work of models and framework development by creating evaluation criteria (also called success criteria or quality aspects). These criteria not only guided development but also were used to help evaluate their models and frameworks. This paper reviews Boehm’s evaluation criteria for assessing a cost model, Beecham’s success criteria for validating a Requiremen...

The purposes of our study were to identify a drug entry process, collect, and prioritize criteria for selecting drugs for the list of basic health insurance commitments to prepare an “evidence based reimbursement eligibility plan” in Iran.The 128 noticeable criteria were found when studying the health insurance systems of developed countries.

The advent of the internet has resulted in the exponential growth in availability of information as well as the sources from which this information can be gathered. Information has become an asset as well as a vital tool for decision making processes. In order to gain new information, a business is often required to give some information, it is already in possession of, up. This information cou...

This paper proposes an automated web site evaluation using machine learning to extract evaluation criteria from existing evaluation data. Web site evaluation is a significant task because evaluated web sites provide information useful to users in estimating sites validation and popularity. Although many practical approaches have been taken to present possible measuring sticks for web sites, the...
