A novel type-2 decision mechanism for dynamic parameter adaptation: theory and application in mathematical and structural problems

Metaheuristic algorithms are stochastic-based search techniques widely used for solving different types of optimization problems. These methods mostly adjust their search behavior using pre-defined search pattern(s) regardless of the current problem specifications. Therefore, integrating them with logical auxiliary modules can significantly enhance their search efficiency by enabling them to dynamically adapt their search behavior. The present study introduces a novel decision-making approach that employs interval type-2 fuzzy logic to balance the search behavior during optimization process. The proposed approach, designed as a stand-alone module with the flexibility to be integrated into various algorithms, is incorporated into the Interactive Search Algorithm. The developed reinforced technique is named Type-2 Fuzzy Interactive Search Algorithm. Performance of the proposed method is tested on different unconstrained mathematical functions and constrained structural and mechanical optimization problems. The attained results are compared with standard ISA method and seven other metaheuristic techniques through a suite of numerical and statistical evaluations. Drawing from the obtained results, the integration of the type-2 fuzzy decision module significantly enhances the algorithm's search capability. This improvement is evident in terms of stability, accuracy, and computational cost. It is worth noting that the employed comparative performance index for the proposed method indicates improvements of 3.38, 13.09, 16.61, and 27.23 percent compared to the best solution found by the selected methods for engineering problems.

Is medical perspective on clinical governance practices associated with clinical units' performance and mortality? A cross-sectional study through a record-linkage procedure.

Objective:Assessment of the knowledge and application as well as perceived utility by doctors of clinical governance tools in order to explore their impact on clinical units’ performance measured through mortality rates and efficiency indicators.Methods:This research is a cross-sectional study with a deterministic record-linkage procedure. The sample includes n = 1250 doctors (n = 249 chiefs of clinical units; n = 1001 physicians) working in six public hospitals located in the Emilia-Romagna Region in Italy. Survey instruments include a checklist and a research-made questionnaire which were used for data collection about doctors’ knowledge and application as well as perceived utility of clinical governance tools. The analysis was based on clinical units’ performance indicators which include patients’ mortality, extra-region active mobility rate, average hospital stay, bed occupancy, rotation and turnover rates, and the comparative performance index as efficiency indicators.Results:The clinical governance tools are known and applied differently in all the considered clinical units. Significant differences emerged between roles and organizational levels at which the medical leadership is carried out. The levels of knowledge and application of clinical governance practices are correlated with the clinical units’ efficiency indicators (bed occupancy rate, bed turnover interval, and extra-region mobility). These multiple linear regression analyses highlighted that the clinical governance knowledge and application is correlated with clinical units’ mortality rates (odds ratio, −8.677; 95% confidence interval, −16.654, −0.700).Conclusion:The knowledge and application, as well as perceived utility by medical professionals of clinical governance tools, are associated with the mortality rates of their units and with some efficiency indicators. However, the medical frontline staff seems to not consider homogeneously useful the clinical governance tools application on its own clinical practice.

Cotton Lint Export Trade in the Midst of Distortion: What are the Competitiveness Statuses of Major Players in the Industry? Case of 12 Selected Countries

The world’s cotton production and export industry has for some time now witnessed protests from various producers and exporters on distortionary measures (notably subsidies) instilled by some major players (including the United States, India and China) and the downward pressure such measures induce on world cotton prices. To complement research efforts made and findings so far following such protests, we sourced assessment of the competitiveness statuses of twelve major players in the industry amidst such distortions. In so doing, we made use of the logarithmic form of the comparative export performance index (ln (CEP)), basing our decisions on newly introduced thresholds founded on seven-year-mean performance indices. In addition, we used mean deviation for the last four of the seven years covered to identify recessions and improvements in export performancefor the respective countries. The results show that, although such distortionary measures (specifically production and export subsidies) are instilled with a purpose of protecting respective local industries, they sometimes turn
