BACKGROUND/AIM Almond hull is produced in high amounts and mostly used as livestock feed. This study was designed to examine the impact of almond hull powder (AHP) administration on lipid profile and antioxidant activities in plasma and liver in hyperlipidemic rats. MATERIALS AND METHODS As the first step, the antioxidant capacity and radical scavenging activity of AHP were determined using c...

The purpose of this paper is to extend the theory of Hierarchies Consistency Analysis (HCA) to establish a multiple structures evaluation model for the AHP. Traditionally, the AHP process is based on a single evaluation hierarchy, according to statistics and group decision theories, a more objective evaluation will be obtained if we can compromise several estimates. We will construct several di...

Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) is major method for decision making now and decision maker’s answers are strongly related to his or her cognitive abilities. Inner dependence AHP is used for cases in which criteria or alternatives are not independent enough. In the process, calculations and compositions of weights are very important steps. Using the original AHP or inner dependence AHP may caus...

In this paper, we first review existing fuzzy extensions of the dominance-based rough set approach (DRSA), and advance theory considering additional properties. Moreover, examine application Ordered Weighted Average (OWA) operators to DRSA. OWA have shown a lot potential in handling outliers noisy data decision tables, when they are combined with indiscernibility-based (IRSA). We theoretical pr...

Social media are an essential source of meaningful data that can be used in different tasks such as sentiment analysis and emotion recognition. Mostly, these solved with deep learning methods. Due to the fuzzy nature textual data, we consider using classification methods based on rough sets.Specifically, develop approach for SemEval-2018 detection task, nearest neighbour (FRNN) classifier enhan...

Modulation of afterhyperpolarization (AHP) represents an important mechanism by which excitability of a neuron can be regulated. In the leech brain, sensitization enhances excitability of the S-cell, an interneuron thought to play an important role in this form of nonassociative learning. This increase in excitability is serotonin (5-HT) dependent, but it is not known whether changes in AHP con...

The OWA operators gained interest among researchers as they provide a continuum of aggregation operators able to cover the whole range of compensation between the minimum and the maximum. In some circumstances, it is useful to consider a wider range of values, extending below the minimum and over the maximum. ST-OWA are able to surpass the boundaries of variation of ordinary compensatory operat...

We introduce a new aggregation operator called the heavy ordered weighted averaging – weighted averaging (HOWAWA) operator. It is a new aggregation operator that uses the weighted average and the ordered weighted average in the same formulation and considering the degree of importance that each concept has in the analysis. Moreover, by using heavy aggregations, we are allowing the weighting vec...
