The recent government tendering process being conducted in an electronic way is becoming an inevitable affair for numerous governmental agencies to further exploit the superiorities of conventional tendering. Thus, developing an effective web-based bid evaluation methodology so as to realize an efficient and effective government E-tendering (GeT) system is imperative. This paper firstly investi...

In recent years, the growing interest in the Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) has resulted in variety of peerreviewed publications. Significant results in this area have enabled many civilian and industry applications. As more and more vehicles are equipped with multiple network interfaces, how to efficient utilize the coexistence of Radio Access Technologies (RAT) such as WiFi, UMTS an...

Glucocorticoid-remediable aldosteronism (GRA) is a hereditary form of primary hyperaldosteronism that presents with hypokalemia and hypertension from childhood onward. GRA is characterized by the ectopic production of aldosterone in the cortisol-producing zona fasciculata under the regulation of adrenocorticotrophic hormone. Despite the early age of onset, no previous reports of pregnancy and G...

The aim of this paper is to propose a new multi-sensor target recognition method for solving the problem which the discriminated object has multiple characteristics indexes. The method combines the concept of gray relational analysis (GRA) method and cumulative prospect theory. This method, the characteristic vector matrix was firstly transformed to standardize membership degree decision making...

The aim of this paper to review the Taguchi based Grey relational analysis is used to find the best process parameters and improved quality results. The GRA was proposed to optimize the multi response problem by making use of the grey relational coefficient and grey relational grade. GRA is attempted to integrate multiple responses, it is feasible to combine GRA with Taguchi method to provide a...

Chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting is a serious adverse side-effect of anthracycline-based chemotherapy regimens, in patients with breast cancer. A combination of three drugs, 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT3) receptor antagonist, aprepitant and dexamethasone, is recommended for antiemetic therapy. Palonosetron (PALO), a novel 5-HT3 receptor antagonist has been identified to be effective agains...

An improved Grey Relational Analysis (GRA) is used to quantitatively investigate the impact of Jiangxi Province regional economy on local logistics demand. The grey characteristics of data from regional economy and logistics is studied, which shows GRA is applicable; then a multi-sequence GRA is proposed, which generates total 4 groups of grey relational sequence from three indices of industria...

The aim of this paper is to investigate the multiple attribute decision making problems with intuitionistic fuzzy information, in which the information about attribute weights is incompletely known, and the attribute values take the form of intuitionistic fuzzy numbers. In order to get the weight vector of the attribute, we establish an optimization model based on the basic ideal of traditional...

Grey relational analysis (GRA) is a vital instrument suitable for optimal selection which can be used for modelling, forecasting and decision making. Grey theory gives reliable solution of systems in which the model is poor with little or incomplete information. This paper aims to use GRA for solving Multi Criteria Robot Selection Problems (MCRSPs). In this paper, GRA steps are implemented usin...
