There are multiple journal rankings in measuring academic journals business research. Among them, ABS (AJG), ABDC and JCR quartiles extensively used schools across the globe. Which is better grading based upon their performance? In this study, we Principal Component Analysis (PCA) Technique for Order of Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) evaluated 103 on six indicators. Then pr...

Abstract: Aimed at the situation that the plan attribute value is a three-parameter interval grey number and that attribute weight is uncertain, a three-parameter interval grey number multi-attribute decision making method based on information entropy is proposed. In this study, we combine the three-parameter interval grey number decision-making problem with information entropy, build the dista...

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 ...

In classification problems when multiples algorithms are applied to different benchmarks a difficult issue arises, i.e., how can we rank the algorithms? In machine learning it is common run the algorithms several times and then a statistic is calculated in terms of means and standard deviations. In order to compare the performance of the algorithms, it is very common to employ statistical tests...

In the last two decades, product recovery systems have received increasing attention due to several reasons such as new governmental regulations and economic advantages. One of the most important activities of these systems is to assign returned products to suitable reverse manufacturing alternatives. Uncertainty of returned products in terms of quantity, quality, and time complicates the decis...

  Multiple criteria decision making (MCDM) problem is one of the famous different kinds of decision making problems. In more cases in real situations, determining the exact values for MCDM problems is difficult or impossible. So, the values of alternatives with respect to the criteria or / and the values of criteria weights, are considered as fuzzy values (fuzzy numbers). In such conditions, th...
