Stem cell competition has emerged as a mechanism for selecting fit stem cells/progenitors and controlling tumourigenesis. However, little is known about the underlying molecular mechanism. Here we identify Mlf1-adaptor molecule (Madm), a novel tumour suppressor that regulates the competition between germline stem cells (GSCs) and somatic cyst stem cells (CySCs) for niche occupancy. Madm knockdo...

Multi-attribute decision making (MADM) play an important role in many applications, due to the efficiency to handle indeterminate and inconsistent information, interval neutrosophic sets is widely used to model indeterminate information. In this paper, a new MADM method based on interval neutrosophic trapezoid linguistic weighted arithmetic averaging aggregation (INTrLWAA) operator and interval...

Abstract. This paper introduces the concept of intuitionistic fuzzy dominance matrix (IFDM) for solving multi attribute decision making (MADM) problems in intuitionistic fuzzy soft sets. during decision making problems, dominance of one expert over others play an important role to find out the optimal alternatives. We have proposed an algorithm approach to solve MADM problems using IFDM. Finall...

Multi-attribute decision making (MADM). Play an important role in many applications, due to the efficiency to handle indeterminate and inconsistent information, single valued neutrosophic sets is widely used to model indeterminate information. In this paper, a new MADM method based on neutrosophic trapezoid linguistic weighted arithmetic averaging aggregation SVNTrLWAA operator and neutrosophic...

In this paper, we investigate the multiple attribute decision making (MADM) problemsfor evaluating the archives websites’ performance with interval intuitionistic fuzzy information.Then,based on the TOPSIS method, calculation steps for solving MADM problems for evaluating thearchives websites’ performance with interval intuitionistic fuzzy information are given. The weightedHamming distances pr...

Based on the additive multi-attribute value model for multiple attribute decision making (MADM) problems, this paper investigates how the set of attribute weights (or weight-set thereafter) is determined according to preference orders of alternatives given by decision makers. The weight-set is a bounded convex polyhedron and can be written as a convex combination of the extreme points. We give ...

The purpose of this paper is to study a type-2 fuzzy multi-attribute decision making (MADM) methodology. Multi-Attributive Border Approximation area Comparison (MABAC) method is extended for MADM based on trapezoidal interval type-2 fuzzy numbers (TrIT2FNs).This method is a pragmatic and reliable tool for rational decision making due to its own characteristics. A systematic evaluation and asses...

A new evidential reasoning based approach is proposed that may be used to deal with uncertain decision knowledge in multiple-attribute decision making (MADM) problems with both quantitative and qualitative attributes. This approach is based on an evaluation analysis model and the evidence combination rule of the Dempster-Shafer theory. It is akin to a preference modeling approach, comprising an...

In this paper, we investigate the multiple attribute decision making (MADM) in uncertain linguistic setting where the information about attribute weights is incompletely known and the attribute values are uncertain linguistic variables, and the decision maker (DM) has preferences on alternatives. We establish two optimization models, which minimize deviations between the overall attribute valu...
