Abstract:
Multiple criteria decision analysis (MCDA) techniques are developed to address challenging classification problems arising in engineering management and elsewhere. MCDA consists of a set of principles and tools to assist a decision maker (DM) to solve a decision problem with a finite set of alternatives compared according to two or more criteria, which are usually conflicting. The three types of classification problems to which original research contributions are made are <ol> <li>Screening: Reduce a large set of alternatives to a smaller set that most likely contains the best choice.

L’aide multicritère à la décision (AMCD) vise à faciliter et améliorer la qualité du processus de prise de décision. Les méthodes d’AMCD permettent de traiter les problèmes de choix, rangement et classification. Ces méthodes impliquent généralement la construction d’un modèle. Déterminer les valeurs des paramètres de ces modèles n’est pas aisé. Les méthodes d’apprentissage indirectes permettent de simplifier cette tâche en apprenant les paramètres du modèle de décision à partir de jugements émis par un décideur tels que “l’alternative a est préférée à l’alternative b” ou “l’alternative a doit

Abstract:
The proposal and the axiomatization of new fuzzy integrals has a central role in modern Multiple Criteria Decision Analysis. In this thesis we propose some generalizations of well known fuzzy integrals (Choquet, Shilkret and Sugeno). We propose and characterize bipolar fuzzy integrals, which are generalization of the most famous fuzzy integrals to the case of bipolar scale, i.e. those symmetric scale where it is possible for each value to find the opposite. We also deal with the generalization of the concept of universal integral (recently proposed to generalize several fuzzy integrals) to

The effects of uncertainties on the simulation component and the decision component of the USDA-ARS Water Quality Decision Support System (WQDSS) are studied. For the simulation component, a generalized second order covariance propagation equation for multiple response models is developed to account for model nonlinearities and complexities. The equation permits the calculation of the covariance matrix of several model responses as a function of their first and second order sensitivities to variations in model parameters and the cross moments of the parameter vector.

Abstract:
<p>Background and Motivation</p><p>Unlike what is common in Europe and the rest of the world, Norway has traditionally met most of its stationary energy demand (including heating) with electricity, because of abundant access to hydropower. However, after the deregulation of the Norwegian electricity market in the 1990s, the increase in the electricity generation capacity has been less than the load demand increase. This is due to the relatively low electricity prices during the period, together with the fact that Norway’s energy companies no longer have any obligations to meet the load growth.

Abstract:
<p>Effects of functioning transportation infrastructure are receiving more and more environmental and social concern nowadays. Nevertheless, preliminary corridor plans are usually developed on the basis of technical and economic criteria exclusively. By the time of environmental impact assessment (EIA), which succeeds, relocation is practically impossible and only preventative measures can be applied.</p><p>This paper proposes a GIS-based method of delimiting motorway corridor and integrating social, environmental and economic factors into the early stages of planning.

Abstract:
Background: Rates of accidental overdose mortality from substance use disorder (SUD) have risen dramatically in the United States since 1990. Between 1999 and 2004 alone rates increased 62% nationwide, with rural overdose mortality increasing at a rate 3 times that seen in urban populations. Cultural differences between rural and urban populations (e.g., educational attainment, unemployment rates, social characteristics, etc.) affect the nature of SUD, leading to disparate risk of overdose across these communities. Methods: Multiple-groups latent class analysis with covariates was applied to d

Abstract:
Pastaraisiais metais Lietuvoje nekilnojamojo turto rinka sparčiai auga. Toks spartus šalies nekilnojamojo turto rinkos augimas yra įtakojamas keleto pagrindinių veiksnių: gyventojams atsivėrė plačios skolinimosi galimybės, gerėjanti ekonominė situacija suteikia žmonėms didesnių vilčių ir lūkesčių, pagal apsirūpinimą būstu Lietuva vis dar atsilieka nuo Europos Sąjungos rodiklių beveik dvigubai, paklausai gerokai viršijant pasiūlą atsiveria geros sąlygos statybininkams bei jų produkciją pardavinėjančioms nekilnojamojo turto agentūroms, besiplečianti nekilnojamojo turto rinka traukte traukia inve

Abstract:
Photovoltaic (PV) solar electricity generation has the potential to reduce the demand for more traditional fossil and nuclear power generation. Community PV solar installations allow energy users to share the electricity generated by these plants. Optimal siting of community solar installations will allow for maximum electricity generation while avoiding environmental conflicts, as well as, minimizing construction costs. This study identifies opportunities for community solar plants in Maricopa and Pinal Counties, Arizona, of ¼-acre in size. Input parameters fall into economic, physical, and e
