Cardiac surgery is an important medical treatment for coronary vessel patients. Different models have been introduced to determine the risk factors related to side effects of this operation. The goal of this research is to study EuroSCORE (European System for Cardiac Operative Risk Evaluation) as a useful method for predicting the risk of mortality after cardiac surgery, and to introduce a new ...

design and expansion of distribution systems seems inevitable in view of the need to satisfy the rise in energy consumption in a technical and economical way. optimal location, sizing and determining the service area of substations is one of the principle problems in expansion of distribution systems. also uncertainty is one of the important factors that increase risk of exact decision makings....

Risk analysis plays an important role in many application systems. The current researches prefer to use fuzzy set theory for risk analysis. In this paper, we present a new fuzzy risk analysis method based on generalized fuzzy numbers. Firstly, we define new arithmetic operations between generalized fuzzy numbers. Then, we propose a new method to measure the degree of similarity between generali...

in this paper, a control strategy is proposed for control of ankle movement on animals using intraspinal microstimulation (isms). the proposed method is based on fuzzy logic control. fuzzy logic control is a methodology of intelligent control that mimics human decision-making process. this type of control method can be very useful for the complex uncertain systems that their mathematical model ...

Amongst possible choices for identifying complicated processes for prediction, simulation, and approximation applications, high-order Takagi-Sugeno (TS) fuzzy models are fitting tools. Although they can construct models with rather high complexity, they are not as interpretable as first-order TS fuzzy models. In this paper, we first propose to use Deformed Linear Models (DLMs) in consequence pa...

In this paper the problem of European option valuation in a Levy process setting is analysed. In our model the underlying asset follows a geometric Levy process. The jump part of the log-price process, which is a linear combination of Poisson processes, describes upward and downward jumps in price. The proposed pricing method is based on stochastic analysis and the theory of fuzzy sets. We assu...

In this paper, we introduce a function in order to measure the distancebetween two order intervals of fuzzy numbers, and show that this function isa metric. We investigate some properties of this metric, and finally presentan application. We think that this study could provide a more generalframework for researchers studying on interval analysis, fuzzy analysis andfuzzy decision making.

In the paper after a short review of main characteristics of risk management applications, some novel fuzzy calculation based possibilities will be presented, like the hierarchical grouping of risk factors, type-2 fuzzy sets representation and decision making on distance-based operators’ platform. The examples are given from the medical diagnostic and risk factor management. Key-Words: risk man...

The objective of this paper is to compare the performance of Singular Value Decomposition (SVD) method and Radial Basis Function (RBF) Neural Network for optimization of fuzzy outputs in the epilepsy risk level classifications from EEG (Electroencephalogram) signals. The fuzzy pre classifier is used to classify the risk levels of epilepsy based on extracted parameters like energy, variance, pea...

Risk response planning is one of the main phases in the project risk management and has major impacts on the success of a large-scale project. Since projects are unique, and risks are dynamic through the life of the projects, it is necessary to formulate responses of the important risks. The conventional approaches tend to be less effective in dealing with the impreciseness of risk response p...
