Book excerpt: Picture Fuzzy Logic and Its Applications in Decision Making Problems provides methodological frameworks and the latest empirical research findings in the field of picture fuzzy operators, and their applications in scientific research and real-world engineering problems. Although fuzzy logic can be applied in a number of different areas, many researchers and developers are not yet familiar with how picture fuzzy operators can be applied to a variety of advanced decision-making problems. Picture fuzzy set is a more powerful tool than fuzzy set or intuitionistic fuzzy set to tackle uncertainty in a variety real-world modeling applications. Picture fuzzy set is actually the generalization of intuitionistic fuzzy set, and intuitionistic fuzzy set is the generalization of fuzzy set. In this book, the picture fuzzy sets are investigated, and different types of operators are defined to solve a number of important decision making and optimization problems. The hybrid operator on picture fuzzy set based on the combination of picture fuzzy weighted averaging operators and picture fuzzy weighted geometric operators is developed and named Hybrid Picture Fuzzy Weighted Averaging Geometric (H-PFWAG) operator. Another operator is developed for interval-valued picture fuzzy environment, which is named Hybrid Interval-Valued Picture Fuzzy Weighted Averaging Geometric (H-IVPFWAG) operator. These two operators are then demonstrated as solutions to Multiple-Attribute Decision-Making (MADM) problems. The picture fuzzy soft weighted aggregation operators (averaging and geometric) are defined, and these are applied to develop a multi-criteria group decision making system. The Dombi operator in the picture fuzzy environment is then defined and applied to solve MADM problems. Based on the Dombi operator, several other operators are defined. These are the picture fuzzy Dombi aggregation operators, including picture fuzzy Dombi weighted averaging operator, picture fuzzy Dombi order weighted averaging operator, picture fuzzy Dombi hybrid averaging operator, picture fuzzy Dombi weighted geometric operator, picture fuzzy Dombi order weighted geometric operator, and picture fuzzy Dombi hybrid geometric operator. Each of these operators are used to solve MADM problems. An extension picture fuzzy set known as m-polar picture fuzzy set is proposed and investigated along with many properties of m-polar picture fuzzy Dombi weighted averaging and geometric operators; each of these operators are applied to MADM problems. Another extension of the picture fuzzy set is the interval-valued picture fuzzy uncertain linguistic environment. In this set, interval-valued picture fuzzy uncertain linguistic weighted averaging and geometric operators are developed, and interval-valued picture fuzzy uncertain linguistic Dombi weighted aggregation operators are utilized in the MADM process. In the complex picture fuzzy environment, the authors demonstrate some complex picture fuzzy weighted aggregation operators to be used in solving MADM problems. Another approach called MABAC with picture fuzzy numbers is studied and developed as a multi-attribute group decision making model. Furthermore, the picture fuzzy linear programming problem (PFLPP) is initiated, in which the parameters are picture fuzzy numbers (PFNs). The picture fuzzy optimization method is applied for solving the PFLPP. This concept is used to solve the picture fuzzy multi-objective programming problem (PFMOLPP) under the picture fuzzy environment. Provides in-depth explanations of picture fuzzy logic and its application to computational modeling problems Helps readers understand the difference between various fuzzy logic methods Provides concepts used to develop and solve problems within the picture fuzzy environment

Book excerpt: "A Rule Is To Break says: Go ahead and throw your best self a party! So glad it exists."—Kristin Hersh, Throwing Muses "After encountering the lively little anarchist in John and Jana's delightful A Rule is To Break, I will always remember the playful little devil with a mind of her own. A children's book on anarchy seems somehow just right: an instinctive, intuitive sense of fairness, community, and interdependence sits naturally enough with a desire for participatory democracy, self-determination, and peace and global justice."—Bill Ayers, author of To Teach: The Journey in Comics and Fugitive Days Simply celebrating childhood: the joy, the wonder of discovery, the spontaneity, and strong emotions. . . . Wild Child is free to do as she pleases. A Rule Is To Break: A Child's Guide to Anarchy follows Wild Child as she learns about just being herself and how that translates into kid autonomy. It presents the ideas of challenging societal expectations and tradition and expressing yourself freely in kid-terms that are both funny and thought provoking—it even functions as a guidebook for adults to understand what it is to be a critically thinking, creative individual. Wild Child is the role model for disobedience that is sometimes civil. John Seven and Jana Christy's previous collaboration The Ocean Story won Creative Child magazine's 2011 Creative Child Award Seal of Excellence and was shortlisted for the 2012 Green Earth Book Award.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book introduces the geometry of 3-D vision, that is, the reconstruction of 3-D models of objects from a collection of 2-D images. It details the classic theory of two view geometry and shows that a more proper tool for studying the geometry of multiple views is the so-called rank consideration of the multiple view matrix. It also develops practical reconstruction algorithms and discusses possible extensions of the theory.

Download or read book The Goddess as Role Model written by Heidi R.M. Pauwels and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2008-10-09 with total page 577 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book seeks to understand the major mythological role models that mark the moral landscape navigated by young Hindu women. Traditionally, the goddess Sita, faithful consort of the god Rama, is regarded as the most important positive role model for women. The case of Radha, who is mostly portrayed as a clandestine lover of the god Krishna, seems to challenge some of the norms the example of Sita has set. That these role models are just as relevant today as they have been in the past is witnessed by the popularity of the televised versions of their stories, and the many allusions to them in popular culture.Taking the case of Sita as main point of reference, but comparing throughout with Radha, Pauwels studies the messages sent to Hindu women at different points in time. She compares how these role models are portrayed in the most authoritative versions of the story. She traces the ancient, Sanskrit sources, the medieval vernacular retellings of the stories and the contemporary TV versions as well.This comparative analysis identifies some surprising conclusions about the messages sent to Indian women today, which belie the expectations one might have of the portrayals in the latest, more liberal versions. The newer messages turn out to be more conservative in many subtle ways. Significantly, it does not remain limited to the religious domain. By analyzing several popular recent and classical hit movies that use Sita and Radha tropes, Pauwels shows how these moral messages spill into the domain of popular culture for commercial consumption.

Download or read book Industrial Engineering in Apparel Manufacturing written by Dr. Prabir Jana, Dr. Manoj Tiwari and published by Apparel Resources Pvt. Ltd.. This book was released on 2020-03-11 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While there is pressure (from buyers), inclination (within self to do better) and a heightened aspiration among apparel manufacturers to use Industrial Engineering (IE) like other more industrialized sectors, there is no specific book as such dealing with IE in relation to apparel manufacturing. The existing books that are already written on IE possess academic rigour and generic functions applicable across industries, thus making it difficult for the practitioners to refer and clear discrete doubts related to apparel manufacturing. Undoubtedly, work study is the centrepiece of Industrial Engineering; however apart from work study, industrial engineers in apparel industry are also supposed to perform various other functions like preparing operation breakdown and operation flow chart, selecting machine type and attachment and workaids, planning machine layout for maximizing unidirectional material movement, optimising inventory and storage space and maintaining workplace health and safety. These are some of the areas that often lack significant attention. This practitioner’s handbook is an amalgamation of theory and practices, including steps of implementation and common mistakes. A balanced approached is taken to make it equally meaningful and useful for the academics as well as the industry. A unique section titled “industry practices” is incorporated at the end of each chapter which shares the typical practices, constraints and benefits accrued by the industry, which will give meaningful insight to the readers and help them relate theory with actual practice.
