Topics related to the structure of the temporal system of Albanian language always give opportunities for new discussions to deal with certain aspects related to various forms of this system, and one of them is the aorist, as a tense containing many semantic, temporal, aspectual, stylistic values, etc. The relationships that exist between the verbal tenses in this system within the absolute time-relative time dimension, which relate to the independent or dependent use of temporal forms against one another in different discoursing contexts, make up an interpretation-based approach to interest.

Decomposition-based many-objective evolutionary algorithms (D-MaOEAs) are brilliant at keeping population diversity for predefined reference vectors or points. However, studies indicate that the performance of an D-MaOEA strongly depends on the similarity between the shape of the reference vectors (points) and that of the PF (a set of Pareto-optimal solutions symbolizing balance among objectives of many-objective optimization problems) of the many-objective problem (MaOP). Generally, MaOPs with expected PFs are not realistic. Consequently, the inevitable weak similarity results in many inactiv

In this paper, we contribute to the theoretical understanding of evolutionary algorithms for multi-objective problems.

This approach preserves convexity. The conic scalarizing function, as a part of a posteriori or a priori methods, has successfully been applied to several real-life problems.

Abstract:
Thin-walled structures, when used for high-speed railways, can effectively mitigate the irreversible destruction when a malfunction occurs. Nested thin-walled tubes, as energy-absorbing structures, possess excellent specific energy absorption (SEA) and crushing force efficiency (CFE). This paper conducts multi-objective optimization by focusing on a square corrugation nested structure with a double octagon inner wall, namely SCOD, to ameliorate the crashworthiness of the nested structure. The finite element model of the SCOD is constructed and validated by test data. A set of experimental desi

Abstract:
The objective of this work was study the soil losses or gains in a watershed in the municipal district of Cambé, Paraná using 137Cs as marker for the determination of soil redistributions. A transect sampling was used to evaluate the influence of different tillage on soil erosion. One point, located in a forest area was sampled and analyzed to determine the reference inventory of cesium-137 deposited by fallout. The average value of the reference inventory was 292 Bq m-2. The cesium-137 inventory of the transect samples varied from 80 Bq m-2 to 403 Bq m-2. The sampling points in pasture presen

Abstract:
Multi-Objective and Many-objective Optimization problems have been extensively solved through evolutionary algorithms over a few decades. Despite the fact that NSGA-II and NSGA-III are frequently employed as a reference for a comparative evaluation of new evolutionary algorithms, the latter is proprietary. In this paper, we used the basic framework of the NSGA-II, which is very similar to the NSGA-III, with significant changes in its selection operator. We took the first front generated at the non-dominating sort procedure to obtain nonnegative and nonrepeated extreme points. This opensource v

Abstract:
Multi-criteria decision-making methods based on reference points and distances from them are essential for evaluating alternatives across multiple criteria. These methods provide structured approaches to comparing and ranking alternatives relative to specified reference points. The main objective of this paper is to present the Multi-Criteria Method Integrating Distances to Ideal and Anti-ideal Points (MIDIA), which, through a weighted system, allows for the consideration of balance and asymmetry in assessing alternatives based on their distances from the ideal and anti-ideal points.

Abstract To ensure that end-users and consumers have access to comprehensive, comparable and user-friendly information regarding the Internet access service quality, it is necessary to implement and regularly renew a set of legislative regulatory acts and to provide monitoring of the quality of Internet access services regarding the current European Regulatory Framework. The actual situation regarding the quality of service monitoring solutions in different European countries depends on national regulatory initiatives and public awareness. The service monitoring solutions are implemented using

Abstract:
Background Physical activity (PA) level is associated with multiple health benefits during early childhood. However, inconsistency in the methods for quantification of PA levels among preschoolers remains a problem. Objective This study aimed to develop PA intensity cut points for wrist-worn accelerometers by using machine learning (ML) approaches to assess PA in preschoolers. Methods Wrist- and hip-derived acceleration data were collected simultaneously from 34 preschoolers on 3 consecutive preschool days. Two supervised ML models, receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) and ordinal log
