This investigation establishes an analytical hierarchy framework to help banks choose merger strategies based on six main criteria. The consistent fuzzy preference relation is used to improve decision making consistency and effectiveness. The analytical results demonstrate that risk management and financial composition of banks are the major considerations for banks in strategy selection. Furthermore,...
Blind source separation (BSS) is a technique used to recover a set of source signals without prior information on the transformation matrix or the probability distributions of the source signals. In previous works on BSS, the choice of the learning rate would result in a competition between stability and speed of convergence. In this paper, a particle swarm optimization (PSO)-based learning rate adjustment...
Because of decision makers having limited attention spans and information processing capabilities, as well as some decision alternatives being incomparable, decision makers may develop incomplete preference relations in which some elements cannot be provided. The method proposed by Herrera et al. devises a consistent preference relation that is restricted by the set of n-1 values {p12, p 23, ...,...
