Why Fuzzy Transform Is Efficient in Large-Scale Prediction Problems: A Theoretical Explanation by Irina Perfilieva, Vladik Kreinovich

“…This procedure is often very time-consuming, since we need to process all the details of the original data. In our previous papers, we have shown that similar quality large-scale prediction results can be obtained if, instead, we apply a much faster procedure—first average the inputs (by applying an appropriate fuzzy transform) and then use these averaged inputs to solve the corresponding (discretization of the) differential equation. …”

Design an intelligent model for suppliers productivity evaluation in sustainable supply chain by Majid Yarahmadi, Saeedeh Sakiniya

“…Finally, an intelligent DEA model for ranking the supplier companies via optimal  value is designed.Findings: This paper presents a new fuzzy DEA model based on a Genetic Algorithm for evaluating the productivity of suppliers in a sustainable supply chain.Originality/Value: In the proposed method, since the -cut obtained from the Genetic Algorithm is optimal, there is no longer a need to calculate the efficiency for different α-cuts through trial and error. …”

Slip Deficit Rate and Seismic Potential on Crustal Faults in Tibet by Yanchuan Li, Xinjian Shan, Chunyan Qu, Guohong Zhang, Xuening Wang, Haicheng Xiong

“…Our results reveal that ∼73% of strain rates are due to elastic strain accumulation on fault planes, and only a portion of the remaining strain rates may originate from unmodeled fault deformation. Quantitative calculations of seismic moment budgets on these fault segments indicate that they can produce earthquakes ranging from Mw 5.8 to 8.6, with 43 segments capable of generating earthquakes of Mw ≥ 7.5. …”
