Landscape, EIA and decision-making. A case study of the Vistula Spit Canal, Poland
PublicationAlthough landscapes are often considered public goods, they frequently receive inadequate attention in Environmental Impact Assessments (EIAs), particularly in Poland. This neglect often leads to visible degradation during investment processes. This article examines the case of the Vistula Spit Canal, currently the largest engineering project under construction in Poland. We analysed whether the conclusions drawn in the EIA report,...

Construction of a picewise-linear classifier by applaing discriminant analysis to decision tree induction
PublicationArtykuł prezentuje metodę konstrukcji drzew decyzyjnych. W odróżnieniu od większości popularnych algorytmów, które wybierają pojedyncze cechy do budowy reguł decyzyjnych w węzłach drzewa, ta metoda łączy wszystkie cechy. Używa ona wieloklasowego kryterium Fishera do wydzielenia nowych cech, które są liniowa kombinacją cech pierwotnych. Takie drzewa mogą aproksymować złożone regiony decyzyjne używając mniejszej liczby węzłów w porównaniu...

Data and knowledge supporting decision-making for the urban Food-Water-Energy nexus
PublicationCities are hubs of innovation and wealth creation, and magnets for an increasing urban population. Cities also face unprecedented challenges in terms of food, water and energy scarcity, and governance and management. Urban environmental issues are no longer problems for experts to address but have become issues of public debate, in which knowledge from multiple sectors is needed to support inclusive governance approaches. Consequently,...

Multi-Criteria Knowledge-Based Recommender System for Decision Support in Complex Business Processes
PublicationIn this paper, we present a concept of a multi-criteria knowledge-based Recommender System (RS) designed to provide decision support in complex business process (BP) scenarios. The developed approach is based on the knowledge aspects of Stylistic Patterns, Business Sentiment and Decision-Making Logic extracted from the BP unstructured texts. This knowledge serves as an input for a multi-criteria RS algorithm. The output is prediction...

The forecasts-based instrument rule and decision making. How closely interlinked? The case of Sweden
PublicationResearch background: The Central Bank of Sweden declared in years 1999–2006 the implementation of the Svensson’s concept of inflation forecast targeting (IFT). It means that the repo rate decision-making process depends on the inflation forecasts. The concept evolved from the strict IFT with the decision-making algorithm called ‘the rule of thumb’ to the flexible IFT. Purpose of the article: The aim of...

Application of multicriteria decision analysis to assess the greenness of molecularly imprinted polymers synthesis components
PublicationThe study applies multicriteria decision analysis (MCDA) to rank the components of molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) synthesis according to their greenness. The components are taken from papers that are describing synthesis of MIPs for persistent organic pollutants (POPs) sorbents. Functional monomers (n = 14), target/surrogate molecules (n = 10), porogens (n = 8), cross-linking agents (n = 8) and initiators (n = 4) are described...

Navigational decision support system during approach manoeuvre in emergency STS transfer operation
PublicationThe paper is concerned with the problem of safe trajectory planning for approaching during emergency STS (Ship to Ship) transfer operation with oil spill. The safe trajectory means that the way points does not cross in the area of the environment with the static and dynamic obstacles and at the same time satisfies ship's stopping and speed deceleration performance. The evolutionary path planning algorithm is used to determine trajectory...

Designing Aggregate KPIs as a Method of Implementing Decision-Making Processes in the Management of Smart Cities
PublicationThe aim of the paper is to present a concept of measuring the performance of city management processes by use of a concept of aggregate KPIs. In the management of organizations and, as a consequence of the use of a common design framework also in the management of cities, silo KPIs are commonly used to show the statuses of the processes of organizations/cities. Thus the question arises as to what extent aggregate KPIs, as proposed...
