Implementation of flexible DEA structure in the management of business processes by Šegrt Slobodan, Tomić Radoljub, Anđelković Maja

“…DEA is a non-parametric technique based on linear programming for measuring the efficiency of decision-making units (DMU) with heterogeneous inputs/outputs. Generally speaking, DEA has a possible large number of inputs and outputs, and the essential problem is that it is often not clear which inputs and which outputs should be chosen when applied to a real problem, that is, when evaluating the efficiency of the system. …”

Face recognition using decision fusion of multiple sparse representation-based classifiers by Biao TANG, Wei JIN, Randi FU, Fei GONG

“…A new approach to face recognition combining decision fusion and multiple sparse representation-based classifiers was proposed to improve the robustness of the traditional methods.Different types of facial features were extracted,followed by training multiple sparse representation sub-classifiers,and then decision fusion was used to obtain the recognition result of the system.The significant advantage of the proposed scheme lines in that the final recognition results were not driven by averaging outputs of multiple sub-classifiers,but driven by combining multiple outputs via weighted fusion method.In particular,the fusion weights were adaptively determined by an iterative pro-cedure according to the different classification performance of each sub-classifier.Extensive experiments on Yale B,JAFFE and AR face databases demonstrate that the proposed approach is much more effective than state-of-the-art methods in dealing with lighting changes,expression changes and face occlusion and multi factor mixed interference.…”
