In this paper, we present a new method for ranking generalized trapezoidal fuzzy numbers (GTrFNs) based on Ochiai index and Hurwicz criterion. The proposed ranking method considers all types of decision makers’ perspective such as optimistic, neutral and pessimistic which is crucial in solving decision-making problems. The proposed method can discriminate the ranking result of GTrFNs having the...

Title: T/L-type calcium channel blocker reduces composite ranking for relative risk according to new KDIGO guidelines in patients with chronic kidney disease

OBJECTIVE : To determine whether individuals with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) differ from cognitively normal (NC) elders on a risk assessment task and whether participants and their study partners evaluate risk and benefit similarly. DESIGN : Cross-sectional. SETTING : University medical setting. PARTICIPANTS : Seventy-nine participants (NC, n = 40; MCI, n = 39), age 60-90 years (73 ±...

assessment of risks is a key task in the project management. in this process, risk breakdown structure (rbs) approach can be utilized to identify project relevant risks. in the previous classical method, only limited number of attributes is considered in the evaluation that can cause unreliable results. in this paper, an attempt has been made to introduce and involve a relatively comprehensive ...

Probabilistic retrieval models usually rank documents based on a scalar quantity. However, such models lack any estimate for the uncertainty associated with a document’s rank. Further, such models seldom have an explicit utility (or cost) that is optimized when ranking documents. To address these issues, we take a Bayesian perspective that explicitly considers the uncertainty associated with th...

The results of the learning to rank challenge showed that the quality of the predictions from the top competitors are very close from each other. This raises a question: is learning to rank a solved problem? On the on hand, it is likely that only small incremental progress can be made in the “core” and traditional problematics of learning to rank. The challenge was set in this standard learning...

Many e-commerce transactions via e-payment systems is carried out. The aim of this study is that the theory of structures, an empirical analysis about the importance and ranking key factors that may be on customer satisfaction in electronic payment systems affect the Iranian banks.9 specific topics of the factors in e-payment systems, customer satisfaction and affect are more key, were selected...

In the past few years, there has been much work on incorporating fairness requirements into algorithmic rankers, with contributions coming from data management, algorithms, information retrieval, and recommender systems communities. this survey, we give a systematic overview of work, offering broad perspective that connects formalizations approaches across sub-fields. An important contribution ...

Strong efforts are made to improve preparedness for the prevention and counteraction of possible deliberate release of highly pathogenic biological agents at national and international level. An objective risk assessment for highly pathogenic biological agents is urgently needed for the purpose of prioritizing measures, evaluating the vulnerabilities and supporting rapid decisions on a scientif...
