Analytic inversion for a general case of certain classes of matrices

The explicit inverse and determinant of a class of matrices are presented. The class under consideration is defined by 4n ? 2 parameters, analytic expressions of which form the elements of the upper Hessenberg type inverse. These analytic expressions enable recursion formulae to be obtained, which reduce the arithmetic operations to O(n ²). The Hadamard product of two specific structures' matrices provides the class presented, special cases of which are already known classes of test matrices.     

Developing a computer vision method based on AHP and feature ranking for ores type detection

Detection of size, shape and color of minerals are important for obtaining information about minerals. The output of mines is ores which vary in colors and shapes. The multiplicity of ores, large scale features and the importance of speeding up the mineral type detection process for intelligent systems, leads us to rely more on expert's advice and rank the selected available features for type detection, according to their importance. In this paper, to separate different ores and gangue minerals, image processing and computer vision techniques with combination of multi criteria decision making (MCDM) approach are applied. Our method proposes a novel way which combines the image processing techniques and artificial neural networks, with analytic hierarchy process (AHP) approaches to detect different types of ores. By help of experts in feature ranking, the image processing techniques proved to be more effective and prompt. The final results show that the proposed method is more successful in type detection of minerals than the other image processing techniques for ores type detection. Our method is also applicable for real-time systems to estimate minerals at on-line ore sorting and classification stages.     

A new multi-objective optimization method for master production scheduling problems using simulated annealing

Tactic planning or master production scheduling focuses on time and spatial decomposition of the aggregate planning targets and forecasts, as well as, forecast and provision of needed resources. This process becomes extremely hard and time consuming with the increase of number of products, resources and periods considered. In face of such obstacles, this work shows a study of an Artificial Intelligence technique called Simulated Annealing applied to the optimization of production planning problem, more specifically, Master Production Scheduling. This work reviews some of the fundamental theory of simulated annealing, the methodology for master production scheduling calculation, the applicability of simulating annealing to planning problems, most important results and suggestions for further studies.

The analytic network process for managing inter-enterprise collaboration: A case study in a collaborative enterprise network

In the last years, collaboration among enterprises has gained attention in the business environment as a means to remain competitive. Enterprises that are collaborating look for improving their performance but, in real assessments, they often do not establish efficient frameworks to structure and manage the enterprise association/inter-enterprise performance. In addition, there are many factors that act as barriers to effective collaboration and have to be also properly managed as they impact on the inter-enterprise performance. This paper provides a methodology based on the analytic network process (ANP) to identify and measure, under an integrated approach, both factors and inter-enterprise performance considering their reciprocal impact. With this innovative approach, enterprises will obtain significant information for the decision-making process regarding which are the factors and inter-enterprise performance elements that generate a higher impact and therefore have a high priority within the specific collaborative relationship. Thus, enterprises can focus their efforts on improving those most important factors and performance elements, and consequently, enhancing their competitiveness.     

Application of fuzzy-analytic hierarchy process algorithm and fuzzy load profile for load shedding in power systems

In an electrical competitive market, load shedding decision support systems are needed to find the ways to process load shedding to satisfy both economic and technical conditions. This paper proposed the Fuzzy Analytic Hierarchy Process algorithm (Fuzzy-AHP) and fuzzy logic for load profile approach to determine the weight of the load nodes of the system and select the control strategy when the system operates at various load levels. Weights of the load nodes were calculated by triangular fuzzy numbers in the pair comparison. These results combined with the fuzzy logic for load profile to draw out the suitable control strategies for various load levels in case of emergency. The effectiveness of the algorithm was demonstrated through the experiment of load shedding of IEEE 37 bus compared with traditional AHP algorithm.     

Enhancement on sensitivity analysis of priority in analytic hierarchy process

The sensitivity analysis of priority in AHP was initiated by Masuda (1990). Although the Masuda sensitivity coefficient is by far one of the best, this note will point out some of its disadvantages and suggest an alternative sensitivity coefficient. The same example used in Masuda (1990) is discussed here for comparison and this shows clearly that our new coefficients reveal the sensitivity of an AHP more accurately than Masuda's coefficients.
