Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNatural Reforestation Optimization (NRO): A Novel Optimization Algorithm Inspired by the Reforestation ProcessFernando L. Rodríguez-Gallegos, César A. Rodríguez-Gallegos, Andrés A. Rodríguez-Gallegos, Carlos D. Rodríguez-GallegosThis paper proposes a new meta-heuristic-based optimization algorithm for single-objective problems. The algorithm is called Natural Reforestation Optimization (NRO) and is inspired by the process in which natural reforestation takes place. The features of this algorithm (such as the distribution of the initial population, the exploration and exploitation mechanisms, the interactions between the particles, the stopping criteria, among others) are … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 16, Issue 8 · 2 Sep 2020 · 6,655 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractApplication of Preference Selection Index and TOPSIS in Product Aspect Extraction and RankingSaif Addeen Ahmad Alrababah, Nawaf Omara AlsrehinDecision-making methodologies can differentiate between several types of criterion weights. The subjective weights of decision-makers are prone to be influenced by various factors, including their level of knowledge, experience and competency. This may result in the wrong evaluation of the criteria due to the inherent ambiguity of human judgments, leading to unavoidable assessment errors. Beyond that, while assessing the decision … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 20, Issue 7 · 24 May 2024 · 4,838 accessesView PDFCite
