according to world health organization, breast cancer is one of the most deadly cancers occurred in women. therefore accurate diagnosis and prediction is important to decrease the high death rate. the aim of this paper is twofold. first, improving breast cancer detection accuracy using modified fuzzy logic (mfl) then improving the performance of mfl algorithm using gpu platform. the experimenta...

abstract. in recent years several studies have shown that  control charts with adaptive schemes or double sampling plans detect both small and moderate shifts in the process mean more quickly than the traditional shewhart  chart. in the classical double sampling  chart, the difference between two points were placed in the central region of first stage was not considered. in this study, a new co...

recently, tuning the weights of the rules in fuzzy rule-base classification systems is researched in order to improve the accuracy of classification. in this paper, a margin-based optimization model, inspired by support vector machine classifiers, is proposed to compute these fuzzy rule weights. this approach not only  considers both accuracy and generalization criteria in a single objective fu...

in today's globalization, an effective integration of production and distribution plans into a unified framework is crucial for attaining competitive advantage. this paper addresses an integrated multi-product and multi-time period production/distribution planning problem for a two-echelon supply chain subject to the real-world variables and constraints. it is assumed that all transportations a...

being one of the major research fields in the robotics discipline, the robot motion planning problem deals with finding an obstacle-free start-to-goal path for a robot navigating among workspace obstacles. such a problem is also encountered in path planning of intelligent vehicles and automatic guided vehicles (agvs). traditional (exact) algorithms have failed to solve the problem effectively s...

fuzzy linear programming models and methods has been one ofthe most and well studied topics inside the broad area of soft computing. itsapplications as well as practical realizations can be found in all the real worldareas. in this paper a basic introduction to the main models and methods infuzzy mathematical programming, with special emphasis on those developedby the authors, is presented. as ...
