The potential use of rudders as anti-roll devices has long been recognized. However, the possible interference of this secondary function of the rudder with its primary role as the steering mechanism has prevented, for many years, the development of practical rudder roll stabilizers. The practical feasibility of rudder roll stabilization has, however, in recent years been demonstrated by two systems designed and developed for operational evaluation aboard two different U.S. C oast G uard Cutters, i.e., Jarvis and Mellon of the 3,000-ton, 378-foot HAMILTON Class. The authors describe the major components of the rudder roll stabilization (RRS) system, along with the design goals and methodology as applied to these first two prototypes. In addition, a brief history of the hardware development is provided in order to show some of the lessons learned. The near flawless performance of the prototypes over the past four years of operational use in the North Pacific is documented. Results from various sea trials and reports of the ship operators are cited and discussed. The paper concludes with a discussion of the costs and benefits of roll stabilization achieved using both a modern anti-roll fin system, as well as two different performance level RRS systems. The benefits of roll stabilization are demonstrated by the relative expansion in the operational envelopes of the USS OLIVER HAZARD PERRY (FFG-7) Class. The varying levels of roll stabilization suggest that the merits of fins and RRS systems are strongly dependent on mission requirements and the environment. The demonstrated performance of the reliable RRS system offers the naval ship acquisition manager a good economical stabilization system.

Low-resource languages are challenging to process intelligent decision systems due to limited data and resources. As an effective way of processing low-resource languages in intelligent decision systems, fuzzy linguistic approaches excel in transforming original uncertain linguistic information into highly structured data and learning valid decision rules between complex data structures. However, existing fuzzy linguistic methods may not fully capture realistic features of multi-attribute group decision-making (MAGDM), such as incomplete and hesitant linguistic expressions, stable information fusion, and bounded rationality of decision-makers (DMs). Therefore, it is necessary to develop a collaborative fuzzy language learning system based on bounded rationality, low-resource and robust decision-making. Specifically, we present a new multi-granularity (MG) group decision-making (GDM) scheme by using MULTIMOORA (Multi-Objective Optimization by Ratio Analysis plus the full MULTIplicative form) and PT (Prospect Theory) for incomplete hesitant fuzzy linguistic information systems (I-HFL-ISs), where MG GDM aims to discover knowledge from complex MAGDM problems with MG features. To achieve the above goal, we first introduce the concept of MG-I-HFL-ISs to represent incomplete, hesitant and imprecise linguistic evaluation information offered by multiple decision-makers (DMs). Then, we apply a valid transformation scheme to convert MG-I-HFL-ISs into MG-HFL-ISs, and use the MG probability rough set (PRS) to develop a series of MG-HFL-PRSs with the support of MULTIMOORA. Afterwards, an HFL MG GDM method is designed by integrating MULTIMOORA and PT for solving MAGDM problems with MG-I-HFL-ISs. The proposed method can effectively synthesize low-resource languages and mine useful decision-making knowledge. At last, a drug selection case and a simulated case are performed for showing the rationality of the designed HFL MG GDM scheme.

The rise of the digital economy and e-commerce has fostered a movement towards efficient low-resource medical information processing, a trend that holds great importance in the healthcare sector. Diabetes, being a widespread chronic condition, has witnessed the introduction of glucometers, which offer patients a convenient method of monitoring their blood sugar levels. However, it is worth noting that a considerable proportion of online comments may be subject to emotional bias or contain inaccurate information. Furthermore, the performance of glucometers can be influenced by several attributes, including price, accuracy and portability, thereby potentially complicating the decision-making process for consumers. Semantic analysis can be employed to acquire valuable information, aiding consumers in reasonably choosing the suitable glucometer. This paper utilizes the benefits of granular computing, an emerging computing paradigm, to effectively handle incomplete and uncertain medical information. It employs generalized fuzzy sets, rough sets and three-way decisions (TWD) techniques to boost the accuracy and reliability of medical information fusion. Subsequently, the MABAC (Multi-Attribute Border Approximation Area Comparison) method is utilized to evaluate the reviews of every glucometer, calculate their aggregated scores, and rank and compare them. Ultimately, in light of consumers’ needs and trade-offs, the glucometer with the highest score can be selected. The proposed approach comprehensively considers the weight and priority of multiple attributes, reduces information overload and mitigates selection difficulties, thereby enhancing the accuracy and reliability of low-resource medical information processing.

This volume contains the papers selected for presentation at the 14th international Symposium on Methodologies for Intelligent Systems, ISMIS 2003, held in Maebashi City, Japan, 28–31 October, 2003. The symposium was organized by the Maebashi Institute of Technology in co-operation with the Japanese Society for Artificial Intelligence. It was sponsored by the Maebashi Institute of Technology, Maebashi Convention Bureau, Maebashi City Government, Gunma Prefecture Government, US AFOSR/AOARD, the Web Intelligence Consortium (Japan), Gunma Information Service Industry Association, and Ryomo Systems Co., Ltd. ISMIS is a conference series that was started in 1986 in Knoxville, Tennessee. Since then it has been held in Charlotte (North Carolina), Knoxville (Tennessee), Turin (Italy), Trondheim (Norway), Warsaw (Poland), Zakopane (Poland), and Lyon (France). The program committee selected the following major areas for ISMIS 2003: active media human-computer interaction, autonomic and evolutionary computation, intelligent agent technology, intelligent information retrieval, intelligent information systems, knowledge representation and integration, knowledge discovery and data mining, logic for artificial intelligence, soft computing, and Web intelligence.
