Prioritization of public services for digitalization using fuzzy Z-AHP and fuzzy Z-WASPAS

In this paper, public services are analyzed for implementations of Industry 4.0 tools to satisfy citizen expectations. To be able to prioritize public services for digitalization, fuzzy Z-AHP and fuzzy Z-WASPAS are used in the analysis. The decision criteria are determined as reduced cost, fast response, ease of accessibility, reduced service times, increase in the available information and increased quality. After obtaining criteria weights using fuzzy Z-AHP, health care services, waste disposal department, public transportation, information services, social care services, and citizen complaints resolution centers are compared using fuzzy Z-WASPAS that is proposed for the first time in this paper. Results show that health care services have dominant importance for the digitalization among public services.WOS:000604482500002Science Citation Index ExpandedQ2Article; Early AccessUluslararası işbirliği ile yapılmayan - HAYIROcak2021YÖK - 2020-2

Evaluation of learning management systems using interval valued intuitionistic fuzzy-z numbers

The use of online education tools has increased rapidly with the transition to distance education caused by the pandemic. The obligation to carry out all activities of face-to-face education online made it very important for the tools used in distance education to meet the increasing needs. In line with these needs, radical changes have occurred in the learning management systems used in distance education. Therefore, in this study, it is aimed to determine the features that the systems used in distance education should have and to compare the existing systems according to these features. For this purpose, a novel fuzzy extension, interval valued intuitionistic fuzzy Z-numbers, is defined for modeling uncertainty, and AHP and WASPAS methods using proposed fuzzy numbers are developed to determine the importance of decision criteria and compare alternatives.WOS:0010834495000112-s2.0-85173691458Emerging Sources Citation IndexArticleUluslararası işbirliği ile yapılmayan - HAYIRKasım2023YÖK - 2022-23Eki

Fuzzy capital budgeting using fermatean fuzzy sets

Investment projects are mostly evaluated by capital budgeting techniques to measure their profitability. The parameters used in capital budgeting such as future cash flows, interest rate and useful life involves high uncertainty due to the lack of information for the future environment. Since the uncertainty involved in forecasting the parameters is mostly in high levels, fuzzy set theory could be used in the determination of capital budgeting parameters to handle uncertain information in the analyses. Fermatean fuzzy sets are one of the most recent extensions of fuzzy set theory which are capable to handle higher levels of uncertainties by assigning fuzzy parameters from a larger domain. In this paper, fuzzy capital budgeting techniques that are fuzzy net present worth, fuzzy net future worth and fuzzy net annual worth are extended using fermatean fuzzy sets. An illustration for the calculations is also presented.Scopus - Affiliation ID: 6010507

Interval valued intuitionistic fuzzy z extensions of AHP&CODAS: Comparison of energy storage alternatives

Energy storage technologies are receiving increasing attention due to the trend toward renewable energy sources. Energy storage systems are a promising technology as they provide the low carbon emissions needed in the future, contribute to renewable energy production, and offer an alternative to petroleum-derived fuels. It is not possible to say precisely how the energy will be stored, and often more than one method must be used together. In this study, battery technologies from electrochemical energy storage systems are discussed. This chapter proposes a multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) model combining fuzzy IVIF-Z-AHP and fuzzy IVIF-Z-CODAS methods to choose the optimal battery ESS. The priority weights of 4 main and 11 sub-criteria related to energy storage efficiency are determined using the IVIF-Z-AHP method. After that, 5 different batteries are evaluated using the IVIF-Z-CODAS method, and the most appropriate battery ESS is selected by doing a performance evaluation regarding the storage of energy at maximum efficiency.2-s2.0-85176240231Eki

Analysis of a new business model to fundraise non-governmental organizations using fuzzy cognitive maps

Fundraising is one of the most critical issues for non-governmental organizations (NGOs) to carry out their projects. In this paper, a search engine project which aims to find additional financial sources and increase donations for NGOs is proposed. The proposed search engine project is analyzed using fuzzy cognitive maps (FCMs) to define and manage factor influences on the success of the project. FCMs are useful tools to define long term effects of important factors for a system. First casual relations of the factors are determined and then using sigmoid function for learning algorithm, the equilibrium state for the system is obtained. It is found that the factors generating monetary values are the most important ones for the project to be successful in long term.WOS:000595520600022Scopus - Affiliation ID: 60105072Science Citation Index Expanded - Social Sciences Citation IndexQ3ArticleUluslararası işbirliği ile yapılmayan - HAYIRKasım2020YÖK - 2020-2

Extension of capital budgeting techniques using interval-valued Fermatean fuzzy sets

Capital budgeting requires dealing with high uncertainty from the unknown characteristics of cash flow, interest rate, and study period forecasts for future periods. Many fuzzy extensions of capital budgeting techniques have been proposed and used in a wide range of applications to deal with uncertainty. In this paper, a new fuzzy extension of the most used capital budgeting techniques is proposed. In this content, first interval-valued Fermatean fuzzy sets (IVFFSs) are defined, and the algebraic and aggregation operations are determined for interval-valued Fermatean fuzzy (IVFF) numbers. The formulations of IVFF net present value, IVFF equivalent uniform annual value, and IVFF benefit-cost ratio (B/C) methods are generated. To validate the proposed methods, proposed formulations are illustrated with a hypothetical example, and the results are compared with classical fuzzy capital budgeting techniques.Scopus - Affiliation ID: 60105072Aralı
