1990), is a sub-discipline of operations research. It aims to support decision making in complex problems where multiple points of view (criteria) must be taken into account before reaching a meaningful solution
The dictionary defines ‘sustainable’ as something that can be upheld or maintained within a certain period and at a certain level. When you say ‘sustainable agriculture’, it means farming as a viable enterprise that can sustain a farmer’s living, as well as adequately provide for the need...
The trained models predict ICU-PSS labels (A-E) for a patient, indicating their level of severity. A standard internal validation experiment across multiple annotated datasets involves first establishing a ground truth, most likely through taking a majority vote across all annotators for each instanc...
Given this decision is often neglected and postponed, such a CDSS may be able to promote switching when appropriate which could potentially support efforts to stop AMR, prevent HCAIs, and benefit patients. To improve the clinical applicability of our solution a number of logic-based rules could ...
There is a standard software design pattern called facade that provides a simplified interface to a piece of code. The goal of the facade pattern is to make a software library easier to use. Along the lines of the metaphor I’ve been using in this book, that interfacing to the processor ...
Under such circumstances, an f-valid solution may be sufficient, which shows a degree of result's validity in a fuzzy way. Since extended fuzzy logic was first introduced in 2009, few studies about it have been conducted. In [25], [26], Niskanen used the impossibility principle and FLe ...
What is needed is a method of meta-analysis that enables decision makers to answer the question, “How effective is this intervention in my specific context?” [3,4,5]. Subgroup analysis and meta-regression [6] are standard methods of meta-analysis that can be used to answer this question...
“Every problem has a solution. You just have to be creative enough to find it.” –Travis Kalanick Problem-solving is a skill that undoubtedly comes into play to improve creativity, execute and deliver projects delightfully. Strong problem-solving skills to improve creativity is a crucial asset...
How to determine the true concentration of the iodine titrant used for Ripper titration of wine using a standard solution of sodium thiosulfate. Titratable acidity in wine by automatic titration Organic acids can affect the flavor, color...
a combination of two methods from a widely utilized decision making theory. Specifically, the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) methodology is employed to determine the criteria weights, which influence the decision making, and the Technique for Order Performance by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS...
