A New Fuzzy Inference Technique for Singleton Type-2 Fuzzy Logic Systems

International Journal of Advanced Robotic Systems, 2012
A new fuzzy inference technique is presented to replace the conventional fuzzy inference process of type-2 fuzzy logic systems. Because conventional type-2 fuzzy logic systems demand a large amount of memory, they cannot be used by most embedded systems,

School readiness and the good level of development: Policy constructions in English early childhood education

British Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper critically analyses how school readiness has been historically and discursively constructed in Early Childhood Education (ECE) policy in England over the past four decades. Using Bacchi's ‘What's the Problem Represented to be?’ framework and Foucauldian concepts of governmentality, the paper explores how school readiness has shifted

Between soft power and suspicion: Chinese international students as diasporic actors in U.S.‐China geopolitical tensions

British Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract This study examines the under‐theorized political role and identity of Chinese international students, who emerge as significant actors caught between U.S. soft power ambitions and rising geopolitical suspicion. Amid escalating U.S.‐China tensions, these students are forced to confront environments shaped by competing geopolitical discourses ...

Addressing Small Data Challenges in Biopharmaceutical Development and Manufacturing: A Mini Review of Multi‐Fidelity Techniques

Biotechnology and Bioengineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The growing demand for biopharmaceutical products reflects their effectiveness in medical treatments. However, developing new biopharmaceuticals remains a major bottleneck, often taking up to a decade before market approval. Machine learning (ML) models have the potential to accelerate this process, but their success depends on access to large

Advancing Sustainable Development in Manufacturing: A Strategic Framework for Overcoming Green–Lean Implementation Barriers

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Manufacturing's transition to sustainable development depends on integrating green with lean under credible environmental policy and stakeholder engagement. Although benefits are well established, the literature underspecifies implementation barriers and their prioritisation. This study identifies, structures, and prioritises barriers to green–
