Due to the increase in impact of different manufacturing processes on environment, green are prime focus many current pieces research. In article, a machining process for stainless steel and SS304 AISI1045 has been optimized using newly developed Fuzzy Measurement Alternatives Ranking according COmpromise Solution (F-MARCOS) method form two case studies. first study, nose radius, cutting speed,...

The paper analyses the problem of ranking accuracy in multiple criteria decision-making (MCDM) methods. The methodology for measuring the accuracy of determining the relative significance of alternatives as a function of the criteria values is developed. An algorithm of the Technique for the Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) that applies criteria values’ transformation t...

A paradigmatic problem in social choice theory deals with the aggregation of subjective preferences of individuals — represented as rankings of alternatives — into a social ranking. We are interested in settings where individuals are uncertain about their own preferences, and represent their uncertainty as distributions over rankings. Under the classic objective of minimizing the (expected) sum...

There is an urgent need to develop data integration and testing strategy frameworks allowing interpretation of results from animal alternative test batteries. To this end, we developed a Bayesian Network Integrated Testing Strategy (BN ITS) with the goal to estimate skin sensitization hazard as a test case of previously developed concepts (Jaworska et al., 2010). The BN ITS combines in silico, ...

We present a multi-objective evolutionary algorithm to exploit a medium-sized fuzzy outranking relation to derive a partial order of classes of alternatives (we call it RP-NSGA-II). To measure the performance of RP-NSGA-II, we present an empirical study over a set of simulated multi-criteria ranking problems. The result of this study shows that RP-NSGA-II can effectively exploit a medium-sized ...

In this paper, we advocate the use of setwise contests for aggregating a set input rankings into an output ranking. We propose generalization Kemeny rule where one minimizes number k-wise disagreements instead pairwise (one counts 1 disagreement each time top choice in subset alternatives cardinality at most k differs between ranking and ranking). After algorithmic study aggregation problem, in...

In this paper we propose to apply the concept of L-valued kernels (see Bisdorff & Roubens [3, 4]) to the problem of constructing a global ranking from a pairwise L-valued outranking relation defined on a set of decision alternatives as encountered in the fuzzy preference modelling context (see Roy & Bouyssou [11] for instance). Our approach is based on a repetitive selection of best and worst c...

We study the problem of ranking opportunity sets in terms of freedom of choice. The analysis is based on the notion of essential alternatives introduced in Puppe (1996). An alternative in an opportunity set is called essential if by deleting it, the reduced opportunity set offers less freedom than the original set. We provide an axiomatic characterization of the ranking according to which an op...
