Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is one of the most common behavioral disorders in young children because its underlying mechanism is still not completely under-stood. The use of fMRI data in ADHD research is utilized to reflect the neural mechanism and functional integration of the brain. Alteration in the functional connectivity of the brain is expected to provide useful information for classifying or predicting brain disorders. In this study, a deep neural network (DNN) approach was applied to classify ADHD using functional connectivity-based fMRI data. The functional connectivity coefficient was extracted between regions determined by independent component analysis (ICA) and used to feed the DNN for classification. The DNN model demonstrated an accuracy of 95% with the preprocessed fMRI data from Nilearn, which is a Python module for neuroimaging data.","PeriodicalId":354250,"journal":{"name":"Int. J.

The role of the human operator in controlling a complex automation is crucial for avoiding failures, reducing risk, and preventing unpredictable situations. Measuring the level of trust of human operators is vital in predicting their acceptance and reliance on automation. In this study, an electroencephalogram (EEG) is used to identify specific brainwaves under trusted and mistrusted cases of automation. A power spectrum analysis was used for a brainwave analysis. The results indicate that the power of the alpha and beta waves is stronger for a trusted situation, whereas the power of gamma waves was stronger for a mistrusted situation. When the level of human trust in automation increases, the use of automatic control increases. Therefore, the findings of this research will contribute to utilizing a neurological technology to measure the level of trust of the human operator, which can affect the decision-making and the overall performance of automation used in industries.","PeriodicalId":354250,"journal":{"name":"Int.

The proposed models are tested on a designed dataset of 119 speakers uttering Kurdish digits (0–9). The results show that both speaker-dependent (average accuracy of 98.5%) and speaker-independent (average accuracy of 97.3%) models achieve convincing results. The analysis of the results shows that 9 of the speakers have a bias characteristic, and their results are outliers compared to the other 110 speakers.","PeriodicalId":354250,"journal":{"name":"Int.

As in the case of fuzzy sets, in fuzzy soft set theory, it is possible to use several theoretical constructions requiring the existence of a powerset theory and monads.

A significant disadvantage of this approach is the neglect of the mutual influence of microclimate parameters on each other. To improve the accuracy of determining microclimate comfort, it is necessary to use a complex predicted mean vote (PMV) indicator. The PMV equation is complex and computationally consuming; simplified solutions can be obtained using Fanger’s diagrams, Excel calculation programs, and specialized computer applications. With the development of technology, intelligent microclimate systems are gaining popularity. In this article, for selecting one of the most effective intelligent technologies, models have been developed for assessing the PMV indicator using the frameworks of fuzzy logic and neural networks. The data obtained using the calculation program of the researchers of the Federal State Unitary Enterprise Research Institute (Russia) were used as input parameters for the models’ development. The program’s performance was validated against the PMV parameter values in the ISO 7730:2005 standard, and a good agreement was found. The PMV index values produced by the considered models were compared to the values calculated using the program, to determine the operability and efficiency of the developed models. Our analysis suggests that neural networks perform better on the assessment of thermal comfort, compared with fuzzy systems.","PeriodicalId":354250,"journal":{"name":"Int. J. Fuzzy Log. Intell.

This projection helps to significantly improve the signal-to-noise ratio in comparison to other conventional methods such as direct fast Fourier transform and complex signal decomposition. Thus, an accurate measurement of heart rate can be obtained. The proposed approach can help improve about 10 dB of heartbeat signal.","PeriodicalId":354250,"journal":{"name":"Int. J. Fuzzy Log.

As a result, network capital expenditure (CAPEX) investment, quality of experience, and customer experience are under enormous pressure. In a competitive mobile market, strategic pricing may play an essential role in managing this pressure only if appropriate tools are available for the service providers. In this paper, a fuzzy knowledge-based expert pricing system was developed with a focus on solving network traffic, price war, and business revenue challenges in a competitive mobile market. Its core lay in its ability to recommend digital- and data services-related price points within a competitive and price war mobile environment. The proposed pricing system was experimentally evaluated through a pilot conducted on a few segments of a mobile service provider’s customer base in an emerging market and later scaled up to a broader base. Upon implementation, data services revenue increased, and overall gross margin increased with a reduction in data traffic, resulting in better throughput and network quality and, consequently, better customer experience with improved net promoter score.","PeriodicalId":354250,"journal":{"name":"Int.
