Decision Making Using The Analytic Hierarchy ProcessVaibhav Gaikwad
Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) is an
effective tool for dealing with complex decision making,
and may aid the decision maker to set priorities and
make the best decision. By reducing complex decisions
to a series of pairwise comparisons, and then
synthesizing the results, the AHP helps to capture both
subjective and objective aspects of a decision. In
addition, the AHP incorporates a useful technique for
checking the consistency of the decision maker’s
evaluations, thus reducing the bias in the decision
making process. In this paper we give special emphasis
to departure from consistency and its measurement and
to the use of absolute and relative measurement,
providing examples and justification for rank
preservation and reversal in relative measurement.

Supplier ranking and selection in a bakeryIOSR Journals
Supplier evaluation and selection is a fundamental problem in supply chain management. Many
companies may not know how to evaluate proposed suppliers to integrate the different criteria upon which they
want to make their decision. A number of techniques have been employed to solve this problem but were not
able tosufficiently incorporate qualitative criteria into consideration for estimation of their alternatives.
A multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) methodology, the Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP), which takes
into consideration both quantitative and qualitative criteria, was used to evaluate three suppliers of improvers
(a major ingredient) for bread production in a bakery,UIB, in southwest Nigeria. This method uses a ranking
scale when comparing alternatives. A consistency ratio is estimated when data have been collected to check for
the consistency of judgments to ensure an accurate result is obtained with the method.
It was discovered that Supplier C adds more value to UIB because it had the highest priority weight of 0.346,
although it was keenly followed by suppliers B and C with weights 0.336 and 0.317 respectively.
Results showed that each supplier fared well under one criteria or the other and there was a generally
good performance from all suppliers.
Implementation of Decision Support System for various purposes now can facilitate policy makers to get the best alternative from a variety of predefined criteria, one of the methods used in the implementation of Decision Support System is VIKOR (Vise Kriterijumska Optimizacija I Kompromisno Resenje), VIKOR method in this research got the best results with an efficient and easily understood process computationally, it is expected that the results of this study facilitate various parties to develop a model any solutions.

IMPROVED TURNOVER PREDICTION OF SHARES USING HYBRID FEATURE SELECTIONIJDKP
Predicting the total turnover of a company in the most unstable stock market and trade conditions has
always proved to be a costly affair causing rise and fall of several trades. Data mining is a well-known
sphere of Computer Science that aims at extracting meaningful information from large databases. However,
despite the existence of many algorithms for the purpose of predicting future trends, their efficiency is
questionable as their predictions suffer from a high error rate. The objective of this paper is to investigate
and rate the performance of classifiers based on the features selected by Hybrid Feature Selection. The
authorized dataset for predicting the turnover was taken fromwww.bsc.com and included the stock market
values of various companies over the past 10 years. The algorithms were investigated using the Weka tool.
The Hybrid feature selection (HFS) algorithm, was run on this dataset to extract the important and
influential features for classification. With these extracted features, the Total Turnover of the company was
predicted using various algorithms like Random Forest, Decision Tree, SVM and Multinomial Regression.
This prediction mechanism was implemented to predict the turnover of a company on an everyday basis
and hence could help navigate through dubious stock markets trades. An accuracy rate of was achieved by
the above prediction process. Moreover, the importance of the stock market attributes through Incremental
Feature Selection (IFS) was established as well.
A Software Measurement Using Artificial Neural Network and Support Vector Mac...ijseajournal
Today, Software measurement are based on various techniques such that neural network, Genetic
algorithm, Fuzzy Logic etc. This study involves the efficiency of applying support vector machine using
Gaussian Radial Basis kernel function to software measurement problem to increase the performance and
accuracy. Support vector machines (SVM) are innovative approach to constructing learning machines that
Minimize generalization error. There is a close relationship between SVMs and the Radial Basis Function
(RBF) classifiers. Both have found numerous applications such as in optical character recognition, object
detection, face verification, text categorization, and so on. The result demonstrated that the accuracy and
generalization performance of SVM Gaussian Radial Basis kernel function is better than RBFN. We also
examine and summarize the several superior points of the SVM compared with RBFN.
Analytical Hierarchical Process has been used as a useful methodology for multi-criteria decision making environments with substantial applications in recent years. But the weakness of the traditional AHP method lies in the use of subjective judgement based assessment and standardized scale for pairwise comparison matrix creation. The paper proposes a Condorcet Voting Theory based AHP method to solve multi criteria decision making problems where Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) is combined with Condorcet theory based preferential voting technique followed by a quantitative ratio method for framing the comparison matrix instead of the standard importance scale in traditional AHP approach. The consistency ratio (CR) is calculated for both the approaches to determine and compare the consistency of both the methods. The results reveal Condorcet- AHP method to be superior generating lower consistency ratio and more accurate ranking of the criterion for solving MCDM problems.

Internet becomes the most popular surfing environment which increases the
service oriented data size. As the data size grows, finding and retrieving the most
similar data from the large volume of data would become more difficult task. This
problem is focused in the various research methods, which attempts to cluster the
large volume of data. In the existing research method Clustering-based Collaborative
Filtering approach (ClubCF) is introduced whose main goal is to cluster the similar
kind of data together, so that retrieval time cost can be reduced considerably.
However, existing research methods cannot find the similar reviews accurately which
needs to be focused more for efficient and accurate recommendation system. This is
ensured in the proposed research method by introducing the novel research technique
namely Modified Collaborative Filtering and Clustering with Regression (MoCFCR).
In this research method, initially k means algorithm is used to cluster the similar
movie reviewer together, so that recommendation process can be done in the easier
way. In order to handle the large volume of data this research work adapts the map
reduce framework which will divide the entire data into subsets which will assigned
on separate nodes with individual key values. After clustering, the clustered outcome
is merged together using inverted index procedure in which similarity between movies
would be calculated. Here collaborative filtering is applied to remove the movies that
are not relevant to input. Finally recommendations of movies are made in the accurate
way by using the logistic regression method. The overall evaluation of the proposed
research method is done in Hadoop from which it can be proved that the proposed
research technique can lead to provide better outcome than the existing research
techniques

Decision support systems, Supplier selection, Information systems, Boolean al...ijmpict
For organizations operating with number of products/services and number of suppliers, to select the right
supplier meeting all their requirements will be a challenging job. Such organizations need a good
decision support system to evaluate the suppliers effectively. Several decision support systems have been
reported to deal with complex selection process to decide the right supplier. Many mathematical models
have also been developed. This paper presents a new method, named as Bit Decision Making (BDM)
method, which treats such complex system of decision making as a collection and sequence of reasonable
number of meaningful and manageable sub-systems by identifying and processing the relevant decision
criteria in each sub-system. Help of Boolean logic and Boolean algebra is taken to assign binary digit
values to the selection criteria and generate mathematical equations that correlate the inputs to the output
at each stage of decision making. Each sub-system with its own mathematical model has been treated as a
standardized decision sub-system for that phase of making decision in evaluating suppliers. The sequence
and connectivity of the sub-systems along with their outputs finally lead to selection of the best supplier. A
real-world case of evaluation of information technology (IT) tenders has been dealt with for application of
the proposed method. The paper discusses in detail the theory, methodology, application and features of
the new method.

EVALUATE THE STRAIN ENERGY ERROR FOR THE LASER WELD BY THE H-REFINEMENT OF TH...AM Publications
Currently, the finite element method (FEM) is still one of the useful tools in numerical simulation for technical problems. With this method, a continuum model presented by a certain number of elements with a simple approximation field causes the presence of discretization error in solutions. This paper considers the butt weld by laser which subjected the tension for AISI 1018 steel highness 8 mm. The aim of the study is to use the h-refinement of the FEM in estimation the strain energy error for the laser weld mentioned. The results show that the stability of the h-refinement shown by the value of the relative error of the strain energy is quite small, specifically; FEM is less than 5.7% and extra is no more than 3.7%.

PEDESTRIAN DETECTION IN LOW RESOLUTION VIDEOS USING A MULTI-FRAME HOG-BASED D...AM Publications
Detecting pedestrians in low resolution videos is a challenging task, due to the small size of pedestrians in the images and the limited information. In practical outdoor surveillance scenarios the pedestrian size is usually small. Existing state-of-the-art pedestrian detection methods that use histogram of oriented gradient (HOG) features have poor performance in this problem domain. To compensate for the lack of information in a single frame, we propose a novel detection method that recognizes pedestrians in a short sequence of frames. Namely, we take the single-frame HOG-based detector and extend it to multiple frames. Our detector is applied to regions containing potential moving objects. In the case of video taken from a moving camera on an aerial platform, video stabilization is first performed to register the frames. A classifier is then applied to features extracted from spatio-temporal volumes surrounding the potential moving objects. On challenging stationary and aerial video datasets, our detection accuracy outperforms several state-of-the-art algorithms.
The aim of this paper is to help the blind people to identify and catch the public transport vehicles with the help of Light Fidelity technology. It is a Navigation aid. When the bus arrives at the bus stand, transmitter in the bus transmits the light signals and receiver in the stick, receives the light signals and a sound signal is generated through the speaker present in the stick. The sound message contains the bus number and the destination of the bus. In addition to this, if the person is absconded or lost, details of the location will be sent to his/her family members by pressing a button. This is made possible with the help of Global System for Mobile (GSM). Finally, presence of water can be detected along the blind person’s path, with the help of water sensors.
EFFECT OF SILICON - RUBBER (SR) SHEETS AS AN ALTERNATIVE FILTER ON HIGH AND L...AM Publications
A digital radiography delivers a radiation dose to patients; therefore it poses potential risk to the patients. One effort to reduce dose is carried out using a radiation filter, e.g. Silicone Rubber (SR) sheet. The purpose of this research was to determine the impact of the SR sheet on the high contrast objects (HCO) and the low contrast objects (LCO). The dose reduction was determined from attenuation x-rays before and after using the SR sheet. Assessment of HCO and LCO was observed from CDR TOR phantom at tube voltage of 48 kVp and tube current of 8 mAs. The physical parameter to assess image quality was the Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR) value in LCO. The maximum x-ray attenuation using the SR sheet is 48.82%. The visibility of the HCO remains the same, namely 16 objects; however the LCO slighly decreases from 14 objects to 13 objects after using the SR sheet. The SNR value decreases with an average value of 15.17%.Therefore, the SR sheet as a alternative filter has no effect on the HCO and has realtively little effect on the LCO. Thus, the SR sheet potentially is used for radiation protection in patients, especially on examinations that do not require low contrast resolution.

REPRESENTATION OF THE BLOCK DATA ENCRYPTION ALGORITHM IN AN ANALYTICAL FORM F...AM Publications
The article presents the study of cryptographic transformations of the Kuznyechik algorithm in relation to differential analysis and the translation of their representations into a more convenient form for cryptanalysis. A simplification of the type of transformations of the algorithm to algebraic the form, in which cryptanalysis software will be more effective. Since the description of the algorithm in the analytical form allows for 16 cycles of execution of the shift register with linear feedback, each of which will be carried out 16 operations of multiplication and 15 operations of addition, reduced to 16 multiplying and 15 the operations of addition. The result is an algebraic form of a linear transformation (from a shift register with linear feedback to the multiplication of the matrix in a finite field). In the future, the algebraic type of transformation can be used to effectively carry out differential cryptanalysis.
Optical character recognition (OCR) is process of classification of optical patterns contained in a digital image. The process of OCR Recognition involves several steps including pre-processing, segmentation, feature extraction, classification. Pre-processing is for done the basic operation on input image like noise reduction which remove the noisy signal from image. Segmentation stage for segment the given image into line by line and segment each character from segmented line. Future extraction calculates the characteristics of character. A Radial Basis Function Neural Network (RBFNN) is used to classification contains the database and does the comparison.
Surveillance refers to the task of observing a scene, often for lengthy periods in search of particular objects or particular behaviour. This task has many applications, foremost among them is security (monitoring for undesirable behaviour such as theft or vandalism), but increasing numbers of others in areas such as agriculture also exist. Historically, closed circuit TV (CCTV) surveillance has been mundane and labour Intensive, involving personnel scanning multiple screens, but the advent of reasonably priced fast hardware means that automatic surveillance is becoming a realistic task to attempt in real time. Several attempts at this are underway.
SIMULATION OF ATMOSPHERIC POLLUTANTS DISPERSION IN AN URBAN ENVIRONMENTAM Publications
Interest in air pollution investigation of urban environment due to existence of industrial and commercial activities along with vehicular emission and existence of buildings and streets which setup natural barrier for pollutant dispersion in the urban environment has increased. The air pollution modelling is a multidisciplinary subject when the entire cities are taken under consideration where urban planning and geometries are complex which needs a large software packages to be developed like Operational Street Pollution Model (OSPM), California Line Source model (CALINE series) etc. On overviewing various works it can be summarized that the air pollutant dispersion in urban street canyons and all linked phenomenon such as wind flow, pollutant concentrations, temperature distribution etc. generally depend on wind speed and direction, building heights and density, road width, source and intensity of air pollution, meteorological variables like temperature, humidity etc. A unique and surprising case is observed every time on numerous combinations of these factors. The main aim of this study is to simulate the atmospheric pollutant dispersion for given pollutant like carbon monoxide, sulphur dioxide and nitrogen dioxide and given atmospheric conditions like wind speed and direction. Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulation for analysing the atmospheric pollutant dispersion is done after natural airflow analysis. Volume rendering is done for variables such as phase 2 volume fraction and velocity with resolution as 250 pixels per inch and transparency as 20%. It can be observed that all the three pollutant namely nitrogen dioxide, sulphur dioxide and carbon monoxide the phase 2 volume fraction changes from 0 to 1. The wind velocity changes from 3.395×10-13 m/s to 1.692×102 m/s. The dispersion of pollutants follow the sequence Sulphur dioxide>Carbon monoxide>Nitrogen dioxide.

The filtration efficiency of keratin Chitosan nanofibers were investigated through DOP test and heavy metal removal capacity of evaluated through Atomic absorption spectroscopy. FTIR results were showed that Keratin gets compatible with Chitosan. XRD patterns revealed keratin was in crystalline nature and increase the crystalline nature of Chitosan nanofibers. FESEM images showed that uniform nanofibers generation with average fiber diameter 80nm. Nanofibers filtration efficiency against a particulate matter in air was obtained more than 99.53% and excellent property of removal of heavy metal.
ANALYSIS ON LOAD BALANCING ALGORITHMS IMPLEMENTATION ON CLOUD COMPUTING ENVIR...AM Publications
Cloud computing means storing and accessing data and programs over the Internet instead of your computer's hard drive. The cloud is just a metaphor for the Internet. The elements involved in cloud computing are clients, data center and distributed server. One of the main problems in cloud computing is load balancing. Balancing the load means to distribute the workload among several nodes evenly so that no single node will be overloaded. Load can be of any type that is it can be CPU load, memory capacity or network load. In this paper we presented an architecture of load balancing and algorithm which will further improve the load balancing problem by minimizing the response time. In this paper, we have proposed the enhanced version of existing regulated load balancing approach for cloud computing by comping the Randomization and greedy load balancing algorithm. To check the performance of proposed approach, we have used the cloud analyst simulator (Cloud Analyst). Through simulation analysis, it has been found that proposed improved version of regulated load balancing approach has shown better performance in terms of cost, response time and data processing time.

The case study discusses the potential of drone delivery and the challenges that need to be addressed before it becomes widespread.
Key takeaways:
Drone delivery is in its early stages: Amazon's trial in the UK demonstrates the potential for faster deliveries, but it's still limited by regulations and technology.
Regulations are a major hurdle: Safety concerns around drone collisions with airplanes and people have led to restrictions on flight height and location.
Other challenges exist: Who will use drone delivery the most? Is it cost-effective compared to traditional delivery trucks?
Discussion questions:
Managerial challenges: Integrating drones requires planning for new infrastructure, training staff, and navigating regulations. There are also marketing and recruitment considerations specific to this technology.
External forces vary by country: Regulations, consumer acceptance, and infrastructure all differ between countries.
Demographics matter: Younger generations might be more receptive to drone delivery, while older populations might have concerns.
Stakeholders for Amazon: Customers, regulators, aviation authorities, and competitors are all stakeholders. Regulators likely hold the greatest influence as they determine the feasibility of drone delivery.
