Intertemporal Choice of Fuzzy Soft Sets
This paper first merges two noteworthy aspects of choice. On the one hand, soft sets and fuzzy soft sets are popular models that have been largely applied to decision making problems, such as real estate valuation, medical diagnosis (glaucoma, prostate cancer, etc.), data mining, or international trade. They provide crisp or fuzzy parameterized descriptions of the universe of alternatives. On the other hand, in many decisions, costs and benefits occur at different points in time. This brings about intertemporal choices, which may involve an indefinitely large number of periods. However, the literature does not provide a model, let alone a solution, to the intertemporal problem when the alternatives are described by (fuzzy) parameterizations. In this paper, we propose a novel soft set inspired model that applies to the intertemporal framework, hence it fills an important gap in the development of fuzzy soft set theory. An algorithm allows the selection of the optimal option in intertemporal choice problems with an infinite time horizon. We illustrate its application with a numerical example involving alternative portfolios of projects that a public administration may undertake. This allows us to establish a pioneering intertemporal model of choice in the framework of extended fuzzy set theorie
Fuzzy Parameterized Complex Multi-Fuzzy Soft Expert Set in Prediction of Coronary Artery Disease
In this work, state the risk and treatment of coronary artery disease our aim. The weighted fuzzy parameterized complex multi-fuzzy soft expert set plays the main roads to arrive a maple treatment. We take a reality values of the a asymptotes systolic blood pressure, lowdensity lipoprotein cholesterol, maximum heart rate, blood sugar, old peak and age of nine patients and transform by FORTRAN program to weighted fuzzy parameterized complex multifuzzy soft expert set. By Kong algorithm state the positive and negative decision, from these decisions state the degree of risk and treatments. Our decision helps the hospital doctor to state the treatments drug therapy or intervention
The induced 2-tuple linguistic generalized OWA operator and its application in linguistic decision making
We present the induced 2-tuple linguistic generalized ordered weighted averaging (2-TILGOWA) operator. This new aggregation operator extends previous approaches by using generalized means, order-inducing variables in the reordering of the arguments and linguistic information represented with the 2-tuple linguistic approach. Its main advantage is that it includes a wide range of linguistic aggregation operators. Thus, its analyses can be seen from different perspectives and we obtain a much more complete picture of the situation considered and are able to select the alternative that best fits with with our interests or beliefs. We further generalize the operator by using quasi-arithmetic means, and obtain the Quasi-2-TILOWA operator. We conclude this paper by analysing the applicability of this new approach in a decision-making problem concerning product management.linguistic decision making, linguistic generalized mean, 2-tuple linguistic owa operator, 2-tuple linguistic aggregation operator
Using fuzzy numbers and OWA operators in the weighted average and its application in decision making
Se presenta un nuevo mĂ©todo para tratar situaciones de incertidumbre en los que se utiliza el operador OWAWA (media ponderada – media ponderada ordenada). A este operador se le denomina operador OWAWA borroso (FOWAWA). Su principal ventaja se encuentra en la posibilidad de representar la informaciĂłn incierta del problema mediante el uso de nĂşmeros borrosos los cuales permiten una mejor representaciĂłn de la informaciĂłn ya que consideran el mĂnimo y el máximo resultado posible y la posibilidad de ocurrencia de los valores internos. Se estudian diferentes propiedades y casos particulares de este nuevo modelo. TambiĂ©n se analiza la aplicabilidad de este operador y se desarrolla un ejemplo numĂ©rico sobre toma de decisiones en la selecciĂłn de polĂticas fiscalesWe present a new approach for dealing with an uncertain environment when using the ordered weighted averaging – weighted averaging (OWAWA) operator. We call it the fuzzy OWAWA (FOWAWA) operator. The main advantage of this new aggregation operator is that it is able to represent the uncertain information with fuzzy numbers. Thus, we are able to give more complete information because we can consider the maximum and the minimum of the problem and the internal information between these two results. We study different properties and different particular cases of this approach. We also analyze the applicability of the new model and we develop a numerical example in a decision making problem about selection of fiscal policies
Partitioning Relational Matrices of Similarities or Dissimilarities using the Value of Information
In this paper, we provide an approach to clustering relational matrices whose
entries correspond to either similarities or dissimilarities between objects.
Our approach is based on the value of information, a parameterized,
information-theoretic criterion that measures the change in costs associated
with changes in information. Optimizing the value of information yields a
deterministic annealing style of clustering with many benefits. For instance,
investigators avoid needing to a priori specify the number of clusters, as the
partitions naturally undergo phase changes, during the annealing process,
whereby the number of clusters changes in a data-driven fashion. The
global-best partition can also often be identified.Comment: Submitted to the IEEE International Conference on Acoustics, Speech,
