MODELING AND IMPLEMENTATION OF Z-NUMBER
… developed in past decades and formalizes them. Z-number is an emerging paradigm that has been utilized in computing with words among other constructs. The concept of Z-number is intended to provide a basis for computation with numbers that deals with reliability and likelihood. Z-numbers are …

Integration of Bayesian Decision Theory and Computing with Words: A Novel Approach to Decision Support Using Z-numbers
… stated in natural language. The concept of a Z-number [69] has been recently introduced to represent propositions and their reliability in natural language. This work proposes a methodology that integrates Z-numbers and Bayesian decision theory to provide decision support when precise …

Advancing the treatment of relativistic theory within the OLCAO package and with application to solar photovoltaic technologies
… solar cell materials often contain high Z-number atoms which require relativistic treatment. Here, we show the development and implementation of scalar relativistic theory within the density functional theory (DFT) based Orthogonalized Linear Combination of Atomic Orbitals (OLCAO) method …
