The slack-based measure (SBM) DEA model is a non-radial used to calculate the relative efficiency, input, and output targets of different decision-making units (DMUs) based on their best peers or efficient frontier. conventional SBM crisp inputs outputs. But, it can be observed in real-life problems that sometimes available data linguistic forms such as “few”, “many”, “small”, missing data. tec...

precipitation is one of important parameters of climatology and atmospheric science that have more importance in human life. recently, extensive flood and drought entered many damage to most parts of the world. precipitation forecasting and alerts management role is responsible for these problems. today, artificial neural networks are one of developed method that applied for estimate and predic...

Standard axioms of free disposability, convexity and constant returns to scale employed in Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) implicitly assume continuous, real-valued inputs and outputs. However, the implicit assumption of continuous data will never hold with exact precision in real world data. To address the discrete nature of data explicitly, various formulations of Integer DEA (IDEA) have been...

Time series forecasting is an important tool, which is used to support the areas of planning for both individual and organizational decisions. This problem consists of forecasting future data based on past and/or present data. This paper deals with the problem of time series forecasting from a given set of input/output data. We present a hybrid approach for time series forecasting using Radial ...

This paper describes an optimized training approach of radial basis function (RBF) classification by reducing a proposed classification-oriented error function. The training approach consists of two distinguished properties. First, radial basis functions, feature weights, and output weights can be updated iteratively; Second, it intrinsically distinguishes different learning contribution from t...

Hemi-spatial neglect can manifest in both the horizontal and radial spatial plane. However, debate exists over how closely the two forms of neglect relate. Here we compared the ability of a neglect patient to bisect stimuli in horizontal versus radial orientation. When oriented horizontally, single lines were mis-bisected to the right, yet when surrounded by visual distracters, the lines were m...

The importance of a country’s international trade is relevant for a multitude of questions in the economic research, since international dependences influence most economical variables of a country. Usually, the concept of openness degree of an economy is used to represent this international interlocking of trade, where previous studies applied mainly output-oriented operationalizations of the ...

introduction low dose rate brachytherapy sources have been widely used for interstitial implants in tumor sites, particularly in prostate. dosimetric characteristics of a new irseed 125i brachytherapy source have been determined using the lif thermoluminescent dosimeter (tld) chips. materials and methods dose rate constant, radial dose function, and anisotropy function around the irseed 125i so...

today, banks, as intermediaries, seek to attract and allocate resources to obtain greater benefit. therefore, the bank assessment is considered as an important subject in the banking industry. data envelopment analysis is an effective technique in evaluating the efficiency of decision-making units. there are factors among banking indices (such as receivables from resource allocation) that are i...

in this paper, using the value efficiency in dea pattern by taking decisive obtain. generally, non-radial model of ve and use proper weight to reduce input and output gain are the appropriate pattern. this paper introduces a multi-objective linear programming problem and efficiency determines the value of inefficient units. use interactive methods to solve molp proposed and applied. in conclusi...
