Ranking fuzzy numbers plays a very important role in the decision process, data analysis, and applications. The last few decades have seen a large number of methods investigated for ranking fuzzy numbers. The most commonly used approach for ranking fuzzy numbers is ranking indices based on the centroids of fuzzy numbers. However, there are some weaknesses associated with these indices. This pap...

Over the last decade, step-indices have been widely used for the construction of operationally-based logical relations in the presence of various kinds of recursion. We first give an argument that step-indices, or something like them, seem to be required for defining realizability relations between high-level source languages and low-level targets, in the case that the low-level allows egregiou...

I n order to examine quantitatively the evidence for an index cycle, 21 years of daily 700-mb. zonal index data for the western longitudes of the Northern Hemisphere were subjected to cross-spectral analyses. The annual variation of the mean and standard deviation of the three zonal indices (polar, temperate, and subtropical) was removed by a standardizing procedure utilizing time-smoothed annu...

Producing indices composed of multiple input variables has been embedded in some data processing and analytical methods. We aim to test the feasibility of creating data-driven indices by aggregating input variables according to principal component analysis (PCA) loadings. To validate the significance of both the theory-based and data-driven indices, we propose principles to review innovative in...

Abstract Graph theory has applications in various fields due to offering important tools such as topological indices. Among the indices, Randić index is simple and of great importance. The a graph

The proposed study employs a long short-term memory (LSTM) neural network (NN) to forecast monthly rainfall in the Barak river basin northeastern region of India for prediction horizon up 4 months advance. Out nine significant climate variables, sea surface temperature (SST), level pressure (SLP), Nino 3.4 index, Indian summer monsoon (ISMR) anomalies and dipole mode index (DMI) were identified...

Introduction and Aim: Malaria is endemic in many parts of India. Glucose 6 phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency known to protect against malaria. G6PD deficient individuals afflicted with malaria when treated primaquine, the first line oxidant drug malaria, encounter adverse fatal complications due acute precipitation hemolytic anemia. There a need assess RBC indices its implications defic...

We study connections between the Boyd indices in Orlicz spaces and the growth conditions frequently met in various applications, for instance, in the regularity theory of variational integrals with non-standard growth. We develop a truncation method for computation of the indices and we also give characterizations of them in terms of the growth exponents and of the Jensen means. Applications co...
