ReSySTER: A hybrid recommender system for Scrum team roles based on fuzzy and rough sets

Ricardo Colomo-Palacios, Israel González-Carrasco, José Luis López-Cuadrado, Ángel García-Crespo (2012)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

Similarity:

Agile development is a crucial issue within software engineering because one of the goals of any project leader is to increase the speed and flexibility in the development of new commercial products. In this sense, project managers must find the best resource configuration for each of the work packages necessary for the management of software development processes in order to keep the team motivated and committed to the project and to improve productivity and quality. This paper presents...

Fuzzy adaptation for information access to digital libraries.

Camino Fernández, Ignacio Aedo, Paloma Díaz, Vicente Matellán (2000)

Mathware and Soft Computing

Similarity:

Different models have been proposed to build systems that adapt to the user reducing the complexity in the information browsing process, saving user time and offering personalised interfaces. The work described in this paper named WAY-Z39.50, is an example of adaptive system specially built for accessing digital libraries. A fuzzy decision mechanism is used to implement the adaptation of both the user interface and the information searching process. This paper describes how this system...

A multi-granular linguistic model to evaluate the suitability of installing an ERP system.

Pedro José Sánchez, Luis G. Pérez, Francisco Mata, Antonio Gabriel López-Herrera (2005)

Mathware and Soft Computing

Similarity:

The use of Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) has shown clearly useful and economically profitable in most very large organizations which manage a great deal of data in their information systems. Nevertheless, the decision of installing an ERP system is not easy and it depends on the size, future profits and other features of the companies. The assessments of the parameters (features, aspects) used to evaluate the suitability of the ERP may be vague and imprecise because they are usually...

Flexible information retrieval: some research trends.

Gabriella Pasi (2002)

Mathware and Soft Computing

Similarity:

In this paper some research trends in the field of Information Retrieval are presented. The focus is on the definition of flexible systems, i.e. systems that can represent and manage the vagueness and uncertainty which is characteristic of the process of information searching and retrieval. In this paper the application of soft computing techniques is considered, in particular fuzzy set theory.

Learning imprecise semantic concepts from image databases.

Daniel Sánchez, Jesús Chamorro-Martínez (2002)

Mathware and Soft Computing

Similarity:

In this paper we introduce a model to represent high-level semantic concepts that can be perceived in images. The concepts are learned and represented by means of a set of association rules that relate the presence of perceptual features to the fulfillment of a concept for a set of images. Since both the set of images where a perceptual feature appears and the set of images fulfilling a given concept are fuzzy, we use in fact fuzzy association rules for the learning model. The concepts...

The application of generalised constraints to object-oriented database models.

Guy de Tré, Rita de Caluwe (2000)

Mathware and Soft Computing

Similarity:

A formal framework for a generalised object-oriented database model is presented, which is able to cope with fuzzy and uncertain information. This model is obtained as a generalisation of a crisp object-oriented database model, which is consistent with the ODMG de facto standard and is built upon an algebraic type system and a constraint system. Generalised constraints have been used to enforce integrity rules and to specify the formal semantics of the database model.
