Fault diagnosis is becoming an important issue in biochemical process, and a novel online fault detection and diagnosis approach is designed by combining fuzzy c-means (FCM) and support vector machine (SVM). The samples are preprocessed via FCM algor...
BACKGROUND: Many electronic infection detection systems employ dichotomous classification methods, classifying patient data as pathological or normal with respect to one or several types of infection. An electronic monitoring and surveillance system ...
OBJECTIVE: Recently, fuzzy soft sets-based decision making has attracted more and more interest. Although plenty of works have been done, they cannot provide the uncertainty or certainty of their results. To manage uncertainty is one of the most impo...
