Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues, 

Data-driven decision making under uncertainty (D3U) practically means extracting data and information, including from Big Data, to make decisions in a wide range of areas, from emergency response to healthcare to renewable energy. D3U is driven by the worldwide advancements afforded through Industry 4.0 as well as the power of hardware handling offered through Cloud and Fog computing and the like. In times of adversity, such as the COVID-19 pandemic, crucial issues such as predictive bed allocation and predicting the spread and the stages of the pandemic have made D3U an integral part of life. Furthermore, it is also becoming an ardent necessity to deal with challenges such as uncertainty, vagueness, and hesitation in order to make rational decisions, and D3U can aid us in regard to all these issues.  

All nations are also striving to achieve eco-environmental conservation, particularly ISO 14000 and ISO 14001, with industries focusing on sustenance and green habits, calling for the furthering of research in these areas.

In this Special Issue, we welcome research papers that are both conceptual and empirical, as well as qualitative and quantitative, and that focus on novel ways of exploring private and public data in order to derive innovative insights in various domains.

Digital education is very important and valuable because it is a subpart of artificial intelligence, which is used in many real-life problems. Digital education is the modern utilization of digital techniques and tools during online purchasing, teaching, research, and learning and is often referred to as technology-enhanced learning or e-learning programs. Further, similarity measures (SM) and complex fuzzy (CF) logic are two different ideas that play a very valuable and dominant role in the environment of fuzzy decision theory. In this manuscript, we concentrate on utilizing different types of dice SM (D-SM) and generalized dice SM (GD-SM) in the environment of a CF set (CFS), called CF dice SM (CFD-SM), CF weighted dice SM (CFWD-SM), CF generalized dice SM (CFGD-SM), and CF weighted generalized dice SM (CFWGD-SM), and also derived associated outcomes. Furthermore, to evaluate or state the supremacy and effectiveness of the derived measures, we aim to evaluate the application of artificial intelligence in digital education under the consideration of derived measures for CF information and try to verify them with the help of several examples. Finally, with the help of examples, we illustrate the comparison between the presented and existing measures to show the supremacy and feasibility of the derived measures. Full article

This work makes a contribution to the theory of soft sets. It studies the concepts of soft semi-algebras and soft algebras, along with some operations. Then, it examines the relations of soft algebras set to their ordinary (crisp) counterparts. Among other things, we show that every algebra of soft sets induces a collection of ordinary algebras of sets. By using the formulas (in Theorem 7 and Corollary 1), we present a novel construction, allowing us to construct a soft algebra from a system of ordinary algebras of sets. Two examples are presented to show how these formulas can be used in practice. This approach is general enough to be applied to many other (soft) algebraic properties and shows that ordinary algebras contain instruments enabling us to construct soft algebras and to study their properties. As an application, we demonstrate how elements of the generated soft algebra can be used to describe the weather conditions of a region. Full article
