An extension of fuzzy TOPSIS for a group decision making with an application to tehran stock exchange

In financial markets, investors attempt to maximize their profits within a constructed portfolio with the aim of optimizing the tradeoffs between risk and return across the many stocks. This requires proper handling of conflicting factors, which can benefit from the domain of multiple criteria decision making (MCDM). However, the indexes and factors representing the stock performance are often imprecise or vague and this should be represented by linguistic terms characterized by fuzzy numbers. The aim of this research is to first develop three group MCDM methods, then use them for selecting undervalued stocks by dint of financial ratios and subjective judgments of experts. This study proposes three versions of fuzzy TOPSIS (Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution): conventional TOPSIS (C-TOPSIS), adjusted TOPSIS (A-TOPSIS) and modified TOPSIS (M-TOPSIS) where a new fuzzy distance measure, derived from the confidence level of the experts and fuzzy performance ratings have been included in the proposed methods. The practical aspects of the proposed methods are demonstrated through a case study in the Tehran stock exchange (TSE), which is timely given the need for investors to select undervalued stocks in untapped markets in the anticipation of easing economic sanctions from a change in recent government leadership.     

GPM Data Application in Analysis of Vertical Structure of Typhoon ‘Mujigae’ Precipitation

The Global Precipitation Measurement(GPM)mission is designed to provide the next generation of global satellite precipitation products.The GPM Microwave Imager (GMI) carried on the Core Observatory adds high\|frequency channels which can detect light rain and snow.The Dual\|Frequency Precipitation Radar (DPR) combining the data of Ku\|band and Ka\|band helps to obtain more information of cloud and precipitation particles.To detect the cloud and precipitation structure in the typhoon,lots of information from both bands such as precipitation distribution,vertical structure,rain top height and structure of stratus cloud and convective cloud of typhoon ‘Mujigae’ occurring in early October 2015 are analyzed,using 1C\|GMI and 2A\|DPR products of GPM.The results show that the Ku\|band of DPR is better at detecting precipitation and bright band.However,Ka\|band has better effects on detecting small particles of the cloud top.The near\|surface precipitation rate centers upon values below 20mm/hr and partly focuses on 20\|60mm/h.The maximum value of near\|surface precipitation rate is 88.68mm/hr.The rain top height centers on values between 5km and 10km,and the maximum value exceeds 15km.The proportion of stratus cloud precipitation in the typhoon reaches 63.4%,but its average rainfall rate per unit area is lower than convective cloud precipitation by 37%.The detecting results of DPR and ground\|based SA\|band radar are very close which proves the reliability of DPR data.     

基于周期性截断灰色系统的电力负荷预测

电力负荷预测是电力系统调度和电力生产计划制定的重要依据;电力负荷时间序列有着明显的周期性特征;传统的电力负荷预测主要侧重于预测方法的研究,而忽略了电力负荷数据周期性特性的分析,影响了预测的准确性;针对电力负荷时间序列的周期性特征,提出了一种基于周期性截断的灰色系统模型来进行电力负荷预测;该模型利用周期性截断来反映负荷数据的周期性特征,提高了预测的精度;仿真采用EUNITE Network的公开负荷数据进行算法性能的测试,并与一些主流的电力负荷预测算法:BP神经网络、极限学习机、自回归模型以及传统的灰色系统模型做比较;仿真结果表明,周期性截断的灰色系统负荷预测的归一化均方误差和绝对平均误差是最小的;周期性截断的灰色系统为电力系统负荷预测提供了一种新的有效方法。

AMSR-E卫星反演土壤湿度与ECWMF,NECP再分析土壤湿度比较分析

土壤湿度是气象学、气候学研究领域的重要环境因子和过程参数。AMSR-E可提供全球范围的较长时序的卫星反演土壤湿度产品,将ECWMF和NECP再分析资料与AMSR-E土壤湿度产品进行时空比较,在评价三者一致性的同时对AMSR-E土壤湿度进行检验,并进一步使用站点观测资料(土壤湿度、降水量)对中国区域的AMSR-E、ECWMF以及NECP土壤湿度进行检验。结果表明：全球及中国区域AMSR-E、ECWMF与NECP土壤湿度空间分布特征一致性较好,但与ECWMF、NCEP相比AMSR-E土壤湿度在数值上明显偏小,尤其当AMSR-E土壤湿度数值较小时,与另两者的差距较大;三者土壤湿度均与降水量有较好的对应关系,比较而言,ECWMF和NECP土壤湿度与降水量的对应关系更好;与站点土壤湿度相比,ECWMF和NECP土壤湿度偏大,AMSR-E土壤湿度偏小,全国范围内2009年159个站点统计结果显示:ECWMF、NECP与站点的均方根误差(0.107、0.124)小于AMSR-E的均方根误差(0.127)。
