It is not only a significant work in supply chain management but also a complex decision making problem which includes both qualitative and quantitative factors. Research results indicate that the supplier selection process appears to satisfy different evaluation criteria and business model in deciding the success of the supply chain. Supplier selection problem related to organization strategy and it needs more critical analysis. This paper proposes a novel approach that combines expert domain knowledge with Apriori algorithm of data mining to discover the pattern of supplier under the methodology of Domain-Driven Data Mining (D3M). Apriori algorithm of data mining with the help of Intuitionistic Fuzzy Set Theory (IFST) is employed during the process of mining. The overall patterns obtained help in deciding the final selection of suppliers. Finally, AHP is used to efficiently tackle both quantitative and qualitative decision factors involved in ranking of suppliers with the help of pattern achieved. An example searching for pattern of supplier is used to demonstrate the effective implementation procedure of proposed method. The proposed method can provide the guidelines for the decision makers to effectively select their suppliers in the current competitive business scenario.","PeriodicalId":117895,"journal":{"name":"2009 IEEE International Conference on Fuzzy Systems","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-10-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127952110","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Backoff schemes are those that provide the backoff interval from which the random delay is drawn. In this paper, we propose a new scheme which calculates the backoff interval dynamically according to the network conditions. The network conditions are measured locally by each node, which supports the distributed nature of the vehicular networks. The measures are used by a fuzzy inference system to calculate the backoff interval. We compare the proposed scheme with other known schemes: the binary exponential backoff (BEB), the sensing backoff algorithm (SBA) and an optimal scheme which requires the knowledge of the number of nodes in the network (Genie). The evaluation measures are the throughput and fairness. Results show an improvement of the fuzzy-based schemes compared to the BEB and SBA, especially for large number of nodes in the network.","PeriodicalId":117895,"journal":{"name":"2009 IEEE International Conference on Fuzzy Systems","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-10-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125339761","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We called this a “preference shift” in this paper. However, conventional recommendation methods suppose that user profiles are static, and therefore these methods cannot follow the preference shift. Here, a novel product recommendation method is proposed, which responds to the preference shift. With use of this recommendation method, the users remain at the site longer than before. This paper discusses the detection method for finding the preference shift timing using time-series clustering. In the proposed method, the products preferred by a user are clustered and the preference shift timing is detected as the change in the clustering results.","PeriodicalId":117895,"journal":{"name":"2009 IEEE International Conference on Fuzzy Systems","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-10-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131492212","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This research area is often referred to as multiobjective genetic fuzzy systems where EMO algorithms are used to search for a number of non-dominated fuzzy rule-based systems with respect to their accuracy and interpretability. The main advantage of the use of EMO algorithms for fuzzy system design over single-objective optimizers is that multiple alternative fuzzy rule-based systems with different accuracy-interpretability tradeoffs are obtained by their single run. The decision maker can choose a single fuzzy rule-based system according to their preference. There still exist several important issues to be discussed in this research area such as the definition of interpretability, the formulation of interpretability measures, the visualization of tradeoff relations, and the interpretability of the explanation of fuzzy reasoning results. In this paper, we discuss the ability of EMO algorithms as multiobjective optimizers to search for Pareto optimal or near Pareto optimal fuzzy rule-based systems. More specifically, we examine whether EMO algorithms can find non-dominated fuzzy rule-based systems that approximate the entire Pareto fronts of multiobjective fuzzy system design problems.","PeriodicalId":117895,"journal":{"name":"2009 IEEE International Conference on Fuzzy Systems","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-10-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133797751","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
