organizational performance is a complex issue given that performance is a multifaceted phenomenon whose components may have distinct managerial priorities and may even be mutually inconsistent. recently, the balanced scorecard approach (bsc), as an effective multi-criteria evaluation concept received much attention in organizational performance measurement. although the bsc conceptual framework...

This paper presents an innovative approach to the structure determination problem in fuzzy modeling. By using the well-known CART (classiication and regression tree) algorithm as a quick preprocess, the proposed method can roughly estimate the structure (numbers of membership functions and number of fuzzy rules, etc.) of a fuzzy inference system; then the parameter identiication is carried out ...

In this paper, a fuzzy web information retrieval system is developed. The system uses many of the tools and methods involved in fuzzy logic and fuzzy set theory, along with standard algorithms involving information retrieval on the web. The results of the ranking algorithm use the fuzzy relational BK-products, fuzzy thesauri, and fuzzy closure properties for purposes of retrieving relevant docu...

Projects are essential for organizations to transform strategies into results, but uncertain events can impose risks achieve a certain objective. Risk management aims support an organization in deciding how deal with risks, prioritizing them through the application of Matrices (RMs). RMs or Probability and Impact is used decision-making, helping classify prioritize decide which will be ad-dress...

This paper presents an implementation algorithm for Intelligent Changeover Fuzzy Logic Switching System (ICOFLS) for domestic load management. The algorithm achieves high quality regulation through utilization of fuzzy logic controller in self-managing the three entities viz: Phase lines, Generator system and Inverter system. The MATLAB Simulink fuzzy logic blockset was used in this research fo...

Original scientific paper This paper proposes a Neuro-fuzzy system for quantitative assessment of the effects of intelligent transportation systems and technologies on road fatalities. The basic idea in developing Neuro-fuzzy system is the fact that intelligent transportation systems and technologies activate some safety mechanisms and in turn the activation of safety mechanisms will have a pos...

Recently, the balanced scorecard approach (BSC), as an effective multi-criteria evaluation concept received much attention in organizational performance measurement. Although the BSC conceptual framework...

A concept called the decomposition of multivariable control rules is presented. Fuzzy control is the application of the compositional rule of inference and it is shown how the inference of the rule base with complex rules can be reduced to the inference of a number of rule bases with simple rules. A fuzzy logic based controller is applied to a simple magnetic suspension system. The controller h...

This paper proposes a novel approach for the classification of phonocardiograms based on statistical properties of the PCG signal energy envelograms using fuzzy inference system. Fuzzification of features is done to remove absolute boundaries and assign a degree of association to every segment of the signal with the corresponding heart sound. Since heart sound signals are highly nonstationary, ...
