A review of multi-criteria decision-making methods for building assessment, selection, and retrofit

Journal of Civil Engineering and Management
Multiple criteria decision-making (MCDM) has experienced significant growth in recent years, owing to its capacity to integrate even contradictory criteria.

Multi-criteria as decisions

IOP Conference Series: Materials Science and Engineering, 2020
Abstract Multi-criteria derived from features have become character objects. When measurements are made of them by weighting methods, each criterion is a decision. Thus, criteria as object behavior may be static or dynamic. As a decision, multi-criteria require analysis and modeling to become an optimal decision.

Mixed Time-Delayed Nonlinear Multi-agent Dynamic Systems for Asymptotic Stability and Non-fragile Synchronization Criteria

, 2021
In this manuscript, we are concerned with mixed (discrete and distributed) time-delayed both stability and non-fragile synchronization of nonlinear multi-agent systems (MASs).

Patient therapy outcome modeling in cancer organoids is improved by cancer‐associated fibroblasts and organoid assembly convolution

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Patient‐derived organoids (PDOs) from pancreatic, colorectal, and gastric cancers were used to evaluate standard and experimental therapies. Incorporating cancer‐associated fibroblasts (CAFs) into organoid cultures improved patient therapy outcome prediction.

Chameleon sequences reveal structural effects in proteins representing micelle‐like distribution of hydrophobicity

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Amino acids sequence of two different proteins with the same sequence (chameleon sequence—black boxes) represent in 3D structure of the proteins different secondary structures: HHHH—helical and BBB—Beta‐structural. The chains folded in water environment adopt different III‐order structures in which the chameleon fragments appear to adopt similar status

Blood‐based proteomic profiling reveals context‐dependent changes in BCL2‐associated signaling during taxane therapy in breast cancer patients

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Chemotherapy side effects significantly impact cancer survivors' quality of life. Using protein levels in blood samples from breast cancer patients before and after 12 weeks of taxane treatment, we detected treatment‐dependent changes in calcium signaling and aging pathways associated with cancer recurrence.

Ergonomic Chair Design by Fusing Qualitative and Quantitative Criteria using Interactive Genetic Algorithms [PDF]

, 2008
This paper emphasizes the necessity of formally bringing qualitative and quantitative criteria of ergonomic design together, and provides a novel complementary design framework with this aim. Within this framework, different design criteria are viewed
