The primary objective in the sorting approach is to assign a set of alternatives into predefined classes. This type of problem is often encountered in many real world decision problems. During the last two decades several new approaches have been proposed to overcome the shortcomings of traditional statistical and econometric techniques. This paper focuses on the multicriteria decision aid (MCDA) approach; it briefly reviews the main MCDA sorting techniques, and presents the multigroup hierarchical discrimination method. This new MCDA sorting technique is applied to the portfolio selection problem. A comparison with discriminant analysis is also performed. Furthermore, the efficiency of the proposal approach can be easily improved for solving large-scale problems in a multiprocessing environment.

Nickel based superalloys, such as Waspaloy , are extensively used for applications under heavy environmental conditions due to their superior thermo-mechanical properties. However, manufacturing processes of these materials are challenging since they involve issues related to their poor workability. Thus, huge research work for optimizing the processing parameters is still required. This problem becomes even more pronounced when finishing processes, such as roller burnishing, are considered. In fact, it is crucial to use parameters able to increase the productivity and to improve the quality of the manufactured parts, consequently a huge number of preliminary experimental tests have to be carried out. Hence, numerical simulation can be a valid support for obtaining information about the metallurgical phenomena that affect the materials while large strains occur. However, commercial software are not still able to appropriately predict such modifications. Thus, the main objective of the present work is to study a roller burnishing on Waspaloy in terms of processing parameters and surface integrity by experimental and numerical analysis, in terms of forces, temperatures, roughness, microstructural modification and microhardness. Thus, the customized simulation demonstrated to provide useful information able to drastically reduce the number of needed tests leading also to a deeper knowledge of the microscopic phenomena involved in the process.

The escalating concern over worldwide security and criminal activities has led to the emergence and significance of closed-circuit television video surveillance systems as an essential tool for diverse security purposes. These systems are extensively implemented and serve a crucial function in the surveillance and upkeep of security. The predominant purpose of video surveillance systems is to gather data primarily for evidentiary purposes subsequent to the occurrence of a criminal incident. The demand for video surveillance systems capable of autonomously monitoring and promptly identifying criminals or intruders in real-time is steadily increasing. Nevertheless, the existing facial recognition methods pose difficulties in reliably identifying individuals who are in motion within a video frame. Moreover, conventional approaches necessitate a substantial quantity of photographs in order to achieve precise recognition following the acquisition of an individual’s facial pattern. In order to tackle these concerns, we developed the implementation of input optimisation algorithms alongside a novel framework for real-time face recognition in the context of video surveillance. The input optimization algorithms, integrated with adaptive thresholding techniques, effectively reduce the need for manual outlier removal by actively identifying outliers for each specific case. The application of this optimisation strategy has demonstrated a substantial enhancement in both the efficiency and precision of our system in comparison to alternative baseline methodologies. Through the use of a reduced set of input image, our system is capable of attaining a heightened degree of improvements. Specifically, employing tracking and temporal voting techniques enables our system to accomplish a real-time face recognition accuracy of 90.91%. The findings of this study suggest that our approach has the potential to be a valuable tool in various applications that necessitate rapid and precise fac

Inconel 718 nickel-based super alloy is widely used in aerospace, nuclear and marine industries due to its important thermo-mechanical properties and excellent corrosion resistance. However, the possibility to produce parts with a superior surface quality (e.g. enhanced surface integrity) still represents a challenge for manufacturing industry since the standard processing parameters are not suitable when difficult-to-cut materials are involved. Thus, predictive models represent a useful tool to simulate the material behavior during machining. Physics based computational analysis is an excellent technique to analyze the micro-scale phenomena (e.g. dynamic recrystallization, density of dislocation changes) taking place during the plastic deformation processes. Thus, it represents an important tool to optimize the cutting process achieving the desired characteristics of the machined surface. This work presents a physics based model developed to assess the micro-mechanical behavior of Inconel 718 super alloy subject to severe machining operations. Results show the good capability of the model to properly deal with the main physical phenomena taking place during the process and to correctly predict the main surface modifications which affect the final product performance.
