in the real world, risk and uncertainty are two natural properties in the implementation of mega projects. most projects fail to achieve the pre-determined objectives due to uncertainty. a linear integer programming optimization model was used in this work to solve a problem in order to choose the most appropriate risk responses for the project risks. a mathematical model, in which work structu...

In this paper, target differentiation based on pattern of data which are obtained by a set of two ultrasonic sensors is considered. A neural network based target classifier is applied to these data to categorize the data of each sensor. Then the results are fused together by Dempster–Shafer theory (DST) and Dezert–Smarandache theory (DSmT) to make final decision. The Generalized Aggregated Unce...

Type-2 fuzzy set theory is one of the most powerful tools for dealing with the uncertainty and imperfection in dynamic and complex environments. The applications of type-2 fuzzy sets and soft computing methods are rapidly emerging in the ecological fields such as air pollution and weather prediction. The air pollution problem is a major public health problem in many cities of the world. Predict...

A risk analyst assesses potential financial losses based on multiple sources of information. Often, the assessment does not only depend specification loss random variable, but also various economic scenarios. Motivated by this observation, we design a unified axiomatic framework for evaluation principles which quantifies jointly variable and set plausible probabilities. We call such an principl...
