Increasing incomes and awards of games leads to better manage games for referees to prevent decision errors. Besides investments made by authorities to better train referees, it is becoming more and more necessary to automatize the game arbitration processes. For amateur games with no referee, there is also a need for an automation system to replace the referee. One of the popular games is table tennis...
Market or customer requirements, cost, current products' specifications and the other criteria are being considered while designing an aircraft or subsystem. Safety consideration starts from beginning of the design phase and finishes at the end of the aircraft realization. After all safety assessment processes various requirements are generated and these requirements make product safer. In the aircraft...
In e-government automated decision-making increases, forming part of a trend towards "smart" and self-regulating systems. This necessitates the introduction of new relationships and practices, challenging the division of responsibilities in public administration. Using a case study approach, this paper elaborates on implications of automated decision-making for professional officers in a...
To achieve sustainable business IT alignment (BITA) requires firms to create a circular organizational structure that enhance interactions of major stakeholders. We aim to explore the issue, and in our study of SAAB, we find three viable components to design the organizational structure so it can foster the accomplishment of sustainable BITA: (1) Strong top management initiates the management boards...
This research paper presents a secondary study aimed at outline the role of artificial intelligence in the management of financial crisis in a business or organization. The research explored empirical evidence and mathematical modelling to provide reliable data that was used to achieve the objectives of the study. The cases of financial crisis in the UK, US, and Boston Chicken Inc. were used in the...
We consider an optimization problem where the decision variable is a string of bounded length. For some time there has been an interest in bounding the performance of the greedy strategy for this problem. Here, we provide weakened sufficient conditions for the greedy strategy to be bounded by a factor of (1 − (1 − 1/K)K), where K is the optimization horizon length. Specifically, we introduce the notions...
UAV has been more and more applied in the military and civil domain. It needs to have the capability to perform some autonomous tasks to ensure its mission's success under the complex electromagnetic conditions. However most of existing researches are at the laboratory level and do the special case studies. Intelligence computing technology, as a basic and universal technology, should be focused on...
The traditional decision methods are always relying on priori knowledge and expert knowledge. Aiming at these shortcomings, we propose a novel decision-making method based on weighted formal context. Firstly, we use weight to evaluate object's importance level and attribute's frequency level. Secondly, we calculate the arithmetic mean value of the object's attribute weight to express corresponding...
The paper promotes the use of ICT for an E-Participation prototype for the Local Government Unit specifically in the Barangay level. E-Participation provides officials and the community interaction to produce information concerning policies and decision making through technological tools. The study incorporates the different types of E-participation namely E-informing, E-Consulting, E-Involving, E-Collaborating...
Road accident is one of the crucial areas of research in India. A variety of research has been done on data collected through police records covering a limited portion of highways. The analysis of such data can only reveal information regarding that portion only; but accidents are scattered not only on highways but also on local roads. A different source of road accident data in India is Emergency...
Nowadays, with the expansion of virtual spaces, interactions between anonymous users have also increased. These interactions can provide new opportunities and threats for users of this virtual spaces. One way to reduce these threats in such spaces is to use feedback-based reputation systems to estimate the trustworthiness of users. However, the feedback-based reputation systems are known to be particularly...
The paper presents the method of a group decision making in a competitive environment. We deal with a group decision when the group of people with different preferences are to make one single decision. The group decision selection process is modeled with the use of multi-criteria optimization task. It is solved with the use of reference point method. This method is an interactive method in which every...
This paper presents the Candidate Moves Method for parallelization of the MiniMax search procedure. As the framework for this new method the basic MiniMax procedure is defined. The original modification of the classic MiniMax procedure is presented in detail. All of these theoretical results and novelties are successfully implemented and verified in authors' chess application Achilles, which is the...
As the availability of open-source information online increases, there are growing concerns regarding its reliability. This has led to renewed emphasis in quality-and trust-metrics research within the social computing space, to assist individuals in determining how reliable pieces of information actually might be. In this article, we take a step back to rigorously investigate the utility of trustworthiness...
The major selection of high school students is not only determined on the basis of academic ability but also supported by the interest factor. Students who study a science which suit their characteristics would feel excited when learning the sciences as well as having much influence in academic achievement positively. The purpose of this study is to optimize the process of major selection on the level...
The selection of the appropriate department in Vocational High School gives the big difference of the ability in thinking for the students. Most students tend to follow their friends in choosing the departments so that the students are possible to feel incompatible with the departments followed and then fail. A student needs to find the department that is suitable to the interest, ability and talent...
Research shows that people consistently reach more efficient solutions than those predicted by standard economic models, which assume people are selfish. Artificial intelligence, in turn, seeks to create machines that can achieve these levels of efficiency in human-machine interaction. However, as reinforced in this paper, people's decisions are systematically less efficient — i.e., less fair and...
In social networking (SNS), the user and the topic are important dimensions of social influence. This article presents a framework of decision-making on SNS topic expanding, named MSNTD [1]. MAS was used in this frame to describe SNS. For a specific topic, agents can get the best way to make the topic expand through active consultation and evaluation. Decision-making process is divided into two stages...
Before the Auction the team shave the liberty to retain some of Its previously selected players and the rest of the players can be selected via auction. Initially, all owners of the team shave the same limited amount of funds to build their team. The more the players an owner retains, the less funds the owner would have to take to the auction. Hence, the decision of retaining players has to be perfect...
The intuitionistic fuzzy aggregation operators play an important role in combining multidimensional information in decision making process under uncertainty and recently received much more attentions to practitioners. In this paper, the generalized intuitionistic fuzzy Einstein weighted averaging (GIFEWA) operator is proposed. Based on the developed operator, a procedure is given to deal with multi-criteria...
