Ranking fuzzy numbers using preference ratio: A utility function approach [PDF]

open access: yesDecision Science Letters, 2013
Ranking fuzzy numbers is one of the most important phases in any decision making process in fuzzy environments. In most cases, we deal with fuzzy numbers in the field of evaluating alternatives with fuzzy information or linguistic variables.

Ranking Functions

open access: yes, 2009
Ranking functions have been introduced under the name of ordinal conditional functions in Spohn (1988; 1990). They are representations of epistemic states and their dynamics. The most comprehensive and up to date presentation is Spohn (manuscript).

Class IIa HDACs forced degradation allows resensitization of oxaliplatin‐resistant FBXW7‐mutated colorectal cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
HDAC4 is degraded by the E3 ligase FBXW7. In colorectal cancer, FBXW7 mutations prevent HDAC4 degradation, leading to oxaliplatin resistance. Forced degradation of HDAC4 using a PROTAC compound restores drug sensitivity by resetting the super‐enhancer landscape, reprogramming the epigenetic state of FBXW7‐mutated cells to resemble oxaliplatin ...

A Theory for Ranking Distribution Functions [PDF]

open access: yesSSRN Electronic Journal, 2013
When is one distribution (of income, consumption, or some other economic variable) more equal or better than another? This question has proven difficult to answer in situations where distribution functions intersect and no unambiguous ranking can be attained without introducing weaker criteria than second-degree stochastic dominance.

In vitro models of cancer‐associated fibroblast heterogeneity uncover subtype‐specific effects of CRISPR perturbations

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Development of therapies targeting cancer‐associated fibroblasts (CAFs) necessitates preclinical model systems that faithfully represent CAF–tumor biology. We established an in vitro coculture system of patient‐derived pancreatic CAFs and tumor cell lines and demonstrated its recapitulation of primary CAF–tumor biology with single‐cell transcriptomics ...

Rank and dimension functions

open access: yesThe Electronic Journal of Linear Algebra, 2015
In this paper, we invoke theory of generalized inverses and minus partial order on regular matrices over a commutative ring to define rank–function for regular matrices and dimension–function for finitely generated projective modules which are direct summands of a free module.

Cis‐regulatory and long noncoding RNA alterations in breast cancer – current insights, biomarker utility, and the critical need for functional validation

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
The noncoding region of the genome plays a key role in regulating gene expression, and mutations within these regions are capable of altering it. Researchers have identified multiple functional noncoding mutations associated with increased cancer risk in the genome of breast cancer patients.

New Ranking Functions for Interval-Valued Intuitionistic Fuzzy Sets and Their Application to Multi-Criteria Decision-Making Problem

open access: yesCybernetics and Information Technologies, 2021
Many authors agree that the Interval-Valued Intuitionistic Fuzzy Set (IVIFS) theory generates as realistic as possible evaluation of real-life problems. One of the real-life problems where IVIFSs are often preferred is the Multi-Criteria Decision-Making (

Rank functions on rings

open access: yesJournal of Algebra, 1990
A (projective) rank function on a ring R is a homomorphism of pre-ordered groups, \(\rho\) : \(K_ 0(R)\to {\mathbb{R}}\), the additive group of real numbers, such that \(\rho ([R])=1\). Such a rank function exists if and only if the ring has UGN \((=\) unbounded generating number), that is, for every natural number n there is a finitely generated R ...

Ranking Functions for Linear-Constraint Loops [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the ACM, 2014
In this article, we study the complexity of the problems: given a loop, described by linear constraints over a finite set of variables, is there a linear or lexicographical-linear ranking function for this loop? While existence of such functions implies termination, these problems are not equivalent to termination.
