Interactive evolutionary multiobjective optimization with modular physical user interface
2022
© 2022 Copyright held by the owner/author(s). Incorporating the preferences of a domain expert, a decision-maker (DM), in solving multiobjective optimization problems increased in popularity in recent years. The DM can choose to use different types of preferences depending on his/her comfort, requirements, or the problem being solved. Most papers, where preference-based and interactive algorithms have been proposed, do not pay attention to the user interfaces and input devices. If they do, they use character or graphics-based preference input methods. We propose the option of using a physical or tactile input device that gives the DM a better sense of control over providing his/her preferen…
Information as a determinant of a decision system
2018
The purpose of the article is to describe the considerations of measuring information in the aspect of making decisions. In the last two decades an "informational revolution" has been made that opens the era of computer tools supporting decision-making processes (Internet, mobile telephony). This relatively new information environment includes information, users and systems that enable information processing. In the information environment, the value and quality of information should be taken into account. An important place in the consideration of information is the measurement of information in the aspect of decision-making.
Analiza i wartościowanie informacji w procesie decyzyjnym
2016
W artykule przedstawiono problematykę oceny wartości informacji przekazywanych w postaci komunikatów. Do analizy wykorzystano jedną z metod wielokryterialnej analizy porównawczej. Przedstawiona analiza ma wymierne znaczenie w procesie decyzyjnym, przy istotnym ograniczeniu czasowym. Analiza została poparta przykładem, w którym rozważono grupę komunikatów scharakteryzowanych poprzez zbiór cech o charakterze ilościowo-jakościowym. Zaprezentowana metoda oceny informacji może znaleźć praktyczne zastosowanie w procesie decyzyjnym w ramach zarządzania kryzysowego w sytuacjach nadzwyczajnych.
On approaches for solving computationally expensive multiobjective optimization problems
2016
In this thesis, we consider solving computationally expensive multiobjective optimization problems that take into account the preferences of a decision maker (DM). The aim is to support the DM in identifying the most preferred solution for problems that have several conflicting objectives and when the evaluation of the candidate solutions is time consuming. This is conducted by replacing computationally expensive functions with computationally inexpensive functions, known as surrogates. First, based on a literature survey, we introduce two frameworks, i.e., a sequential and an adaptive framework, based on which surrogate-based methods are classified and compared. We then identify relevant cha…
Defensive behavior in healthcare: the role of organizational factors
Defensive medicine occurs when a healthcare practitioner performs treatment or procedure to avoid exposure to malpractice litigation. Being the consequences of such a behavior nefarious both in terms of patient care, healthcare operations and cost, much has been done in terms of research and practice with the aim to reduce the likelihood of its occurrence. Because defensive medicine is strictly related to the doctor perception of the risk of litigation and its legal repercussions, in the last years, jurisprudence and insurance contract studies in healthcare focused on this topic, as well as national laws have been introduced with the goal of contrasting it. This paper argues and demonstrate…

La intervención posconflicto en el Derecho internacional: una auditoría de género
2013
Que el conflicto armado tiene un impacto diferenciado de género es harto conocido. Demostrar además que la intervención posconflicto también lo tiene, constituye el objetivo de esta tesis. Por ello, partiendo de la potencialidad del gender mainstreaming o perspectiva transversal de género como herramienta fundamental para la gestión internacional de conflictos y, en línea con los postulados de la resolución 1325 del Consejo de Seguridad de Naciones Unidas sobre mujeres, paz y seguridad de 31 de octubre del año 2000, esta investigación adopta la forma de auditoría de género para trazar, mediante un análisis contextual (primera parte), jurídico (segunda parte) y clínico (tercera parte), la ev…
LAS DISTINTAS PERSPECTIVAS DE TOMA DE DECISIONES EN EL PROCESO DE FORMACIÓN DE LA ESTRATEGIA Y EL MIDDLE MANAGEMENT ROLE
2010
<p>Este trabajo tiene como objetivo analizar los temas relacionados con las distintas perspectivas de toma de decisiones en la organización: top-down, bottom-up y middle-up-down y el papel del directivo medio en ese proceso. Para ello se busca delimitar los conceptos derivados de estudios empíricos e teóricos seminales, cruzando diferentes líneas de pensamiento, pretendiendo formar un marco teórico conceptual en torno a la perspectiva integradora en el proceso de formación de la estrategia. En cuanto a la forma de desarrollo del estudio, este se caracteriza como un ensayo teórico, al revisar estos conceptos y teorías de manera que del análisis se pueda obtener una propuesta de aplicac…
Heterogeneity in Disordered Gambling: Decision-Making and Impulsivity in Gamblers Grouped by Preferred Form
2019
Background: Previous research has indicated that disordered gamblers display deficits in impulsivity and risky decision-making, compared to healthy control groups. However, disordered gamblers are not a homogenous group, and differences in performance on neurocognitive tasks may be related to the form of gambling in which an individual chooses to engage. The present study used neurocognitive tasks and questionnaire measures to ascertain group differences in gamblers grouped by preferred form of gambling. Method: Treatment-seeking pathological gamblers from the National Problem Gambling Clinic, London (n = 101), completed a neurocognitive assessment comprising the Cambridge gamble task (CGT)…
