Novel Decision-Making Techniques in Tripolar Fuzzy Environment with Application: A Case Study of ERP Systems.

The intuitionistic fuzzy set (IFS) and bipolar fuzzy set (BFS) are all effective models to describe ambiguous and incomplete cognitive knowledge with membership, non-membership, negative membership, and hesitancy sections. But in daily life problems, there are some situations where we cannot apply the ordinary models of IFS and BFS, separately. Hence, there is a need to combine both the models of IFS and BFS into a single one. A tripolar fuzzy set (TFS) is a generalization of IFS and BFS. In circumstances where BFS and IFS models cannot be used individually, a tripolar fuzzy model is more dependable and efficient. Further, the IFS and BFS models are reduced to corollaries due to the proposed model of TFS. For this purpose in this article, we first consider some novel operations on tripolar fuzzy information. These operations are formulated on the basis of well-known Dombi T-norm and T-conorm, and the desirable properties are discussed. By applying the Dombi operations, arithmetic and geometric aggregation operators of TFS are proposed, and we introduce the concepts of a TF-Dombi weighted average (TFDWA) operator, a TF-Dombi ordered weighted average (TFDOWA) operator, and a TF-Dombi hybrid weighted (TFDHW) operator and explore their fundamental features including idempotency, boundedness, monotonicity, and others. In the second part, we propose TF-Dombi weighted geometric (TFDWG) operator, TF-Dombi ordered weighted geometric (TFDOWG) operator, and TF-Dombi hybrid geometric (TFDHG) operator. The features and specific cases of the mentioned operators are examined. Enterprise resource planning (ERP) is a management and integration approach that organizations employ to manage and develop many aspects of their operations. The study's primary contribution is to employ TFS to create certain decision-making strategies for the selection of optimal ERP systems. The proposed operators are then used to build several techniques for solving multiattribute decision-making (MADM) issues with TF information. Finally, an example of ERP system selection is investigated to demonstrate that the techniques suggested are trustworthy and realistic.

Gender Identification and Classification of Drosophila melanogaster Flies Using Machine Learning Techniques.

Drosophila melanogaster is an important genetic model organism used extensively in medical and biological studies. About 61% of known human genes have a recognizable match with the genetic code of Drosophila flies, and 50% of fly protein sequences have mammalian analogues. Recently, several investigations have been conducted in Drosophila to study the functions of specific genes exist in the central nervous system, heart, liver, and kidney. The outcomes of the research in Drosophila are also used as a unique tool to study human-related diseases. This article presents a novel automated system to classify the gender of Drosophila flies obtained through microscopic images (ventral view). The proposed system takes an image as input and converts it into grayscale illustration to extract the texture features from the image. Then, machine learning (ML) classifiers such as support vector machines (SVM), Naive Bayes (NB), and K-nearest neighbour (KNN) are used to classify the Drosophila as male or female. The proposed model is evaluated using the real microscopic image dataset, and the results show that the accuracy of the KNN is 90%, which is higher than the accuracy of the SVM classifier.

q-Rung Orthopair Fuzzy Rough Einstein Aggregation Information-Based EDAS Method: Applications in Robotic Agrifarming.

The main purpose of this manuscript is to present a novel idea on the q-rung orthopair fuzzy rough set (q-ROFRS) by the hybridized notion of q-ROFRSs and rough sets (RSs) and discuss its basic operations. Furthermore, by utilizing the developed concept, a list of q-ROFR Einstein weighted averaging and geometric aggregation operators are presented which are based on algebraic and Einstein norms. Similarly, some interesting characteristics of these operators are initiated. Moreover, the concept of the entropy and distance measures is presented to utilize the decision makers' unknown weights as well as attributes' weight information. The EDAS (evaluation based on distance from average solution) methodology plays a crucial role in decision-making challenges, especially when the problems of multicriteria group decision-making (MCGDM) include more competing criteria. The core of this study is to develop a decision-making algorithm based on the entropy measure, aggregation information, and EDAS methodology to handle the uncertainty in real-word decision-making problems (DMPs) under q-rung orthopair fuzzy rough information. To show the superiority and applicability of the developed technique, a numerical case study of a real-life DMP in agriculture farming is considered. Findings indicate that the suggested decision-making model is much more efficient and reliable to tackle uncertain information based on q-ROFR information.
