People represent one of the most significant resources of an organization, and therefore, personnel selection is one of the problems that organizations have increasingly been facing. The criteria that influence the final decision are usually opposing, so the application of multiple-criteria decision-making methods (MCDM) represents a suitable way for the facilitation of the given process. Additionally, the decision environment is characterized by the vagueness and uncertainty and, because of that, it is very hard to express the criteria over the exact crisp numbers. To acknowledge the unpredictability and obscurity of the available information important for the selection of the optimal candidate, a hybrid grey MCDM model for personnel selection is proposed in this paper. As an extension of the PIPRECIA method, the novel Grey Pivot Pairwise Relative Criteria Importance Assessment—the PIPRECIA-G method—is proposed and used for the determination of criteria importance. The PIPRECIA-G method preserved the good features of the PIPRECIA, but its superiority is reflected in its ability to deal with input data that are vague and grey. For the final ranking of the considered alternative candidates, the OCRA-G method is used. Basing the decision process and candidate selection on the two grey extended MCDM methods contributes to the increase of the reliability and confidence in the performed selection.

The article presents the application of the PIvot Pairwise RElative Criteria Importance Assessment (PIRECIA) method for ranking alternatives. The PIPRECIA method is primarily intended for determining the significance (weight) of criteria, but it can also be used for completely solving decision-making problems. So far, this method has not been used for completely solving multiple criteria decision-making problems, which is why this article presents the application of the PIPRECIA method for the evaluation and ranking alternatives. The process of evaluating alternatives using the PIPRECIA method is shown on an example of evaluating the websites of some hotels located in Southern and Eastern Serbia.

The weights of evaluation criteria could have a significant impact on the results obtained by using multiple criteria decision-making methods, which is why a number of methods have been proposed for determining them. In this article, the use of a newly proposed method for determining criteria weights, the PIvot Pairwise RElative Criteria Importance Assessment (PIPRECIA) method, is presented in the case of determining weights of criteria for assessing the quality of e-learning materials. The main goal is to define which criteria are the most important and have the crucial influence on the quality of e-learning material, as well as to demonstrate the applicability of the proposed method and the simplicity of its application.

Abstract The coefficient of Manning's roughness (n) has been generally implemented in the determination of depth and discharge in open channels and canals. This study unravels the novel idea and potential of Random Forest (RF), M5P, and Random Tree (RT) approaches to evaluate and predict the coefficient of Manning's roughness for hydraulic designing. To achieve this purpose, 42 observations are collected for high-gradient streams in Colorado, USA. All the observations are from boulder-bed, cobble and high gradient (S > 0.002 m/m) streams for within bank flows. In order to ascertain the best model, the above-mentioned approaches are evaluated and compared using performance evaluation indices such as mean absolute error (MAE), coefficient of correlation (CC), and root mean square error (RMSE). Outcomes of performance evaluation indices revealed that the proposed pruned M5P approach outperformed other applied models for predicting the coefficient of Manning's roughness for hydraulic designing with CC = 0.7858, 0.7910, RMSE = 0.0195, 0.0195, and MAE = 0.0157, 0.0165 for model development and validation period, correspondingly. Furthermore, Taylor diagram and Box plot also suggest that M5P based approach works better than RF and RT based approaches for predicting the coefficient of Manning's roughness for high-gradient streams using the given data set.

The article is devoted to the analysis of improving budget process trends. The author offers the concept of "financial technologism". Its usage should promote an essential improvement of the budget process. The given concept is based on the fact that the regulation of budget procedure is the process of determination of "rules of the game", and the order of interaction of different institutions within the framework of the budget process, and the trends and volumes of expenses are the strategy of institutions. The procedure within the budget process plays a principal role as compared with the trends and volumes of public expenditures.

A novel method was developed for the determination of linting propensity of paper based on printing with an IGT printability tester and image analysis of the printed strips. On average, the total fraction of the surface removed as lint during printing is 0.01%-0.1%. This value is lower than those reported in most laboratory printing tests, and more representative of commercial offset printing applications. Newsprint paper produced on a roll/blade former machine was evaluated for linting propensity using the novel method and also printed on a commercial coldset offset press. Laboratory and commercial printing results matched well, showing that linting was higher for the bottom side of paper than for the top side, and that linting could be reduced on both sides by application of a dry-strength additive. In a second case study, varying wet-end conditions were used on a hybrid former machine to produce four paper reels, with the goal of matching the low linting propensity of the paper produced on a machine with gap former configuration. We found that the retention program, by improving fiber fines retention, substantially reduced the linting propensity of the paper produced on the hybrid former machine. The papers were also printed on a commercial coldset offset press. An excellent correlation was found between the total lint area removed from the bottom side of the paper samples during laboratory printing and lint collected on halftone areas of the first upper printing unit after 45000 copies. Finally, the method was applied to determine the linting propensity of highly filled supercalendered paper produced on a hybrid former machine. In this case, the linting propensity of the bottom side of paper correlated with its ash content.

The selection and determination of appropriate learning strategies can improve the results to be obtained from the application of classroom learning models. This writing aims to discipline students to develop individual abilities of students to be more active in the learning process and improve the quality of learning. The learning process in Indonesia in general only uses conventional learning models that make students passive and undeveloped. In order for the quality of learning to increase, the Team Assisted Individualization learning model is combined with the task learning and forced strategies. The Team Assisted Individualization cooperative learning model is one of the cooperative learning models that combines learning individually and in groups. Meanwhile, task and forced learning strategies are strategies that focus on giving assignments that require students to complete them on time so that the learning process can run effectively. Students are required to do assignments according to the given deadline. This makes students become familiar with the tasks given by the teacher. Combining or modifying the learning model of the assisted individualization team with forced and forced learning strategies is expected to be able to make students more active, disciplined, independent, creative in learning and responsible for the tasks assigned. Therefore this method of incorporation is very necessary in the learning process and can be applied to improve the quality of learning in schools.

Formulae have been obtained that are necessary to calculate cumulative deformation in the process of straitened extrusion in the central area closed to the working end of the counterpunch. The general method of plastic flow proposed by A. L. Vorontsov was used. The obtained formulae allow one to determine the deformed state of a billet in any point of the given area. The formulae should be used to take into account the strengthening of the extruded material.

The environment in which the decision-making process takes place is often characterized by uncertainty and vagueness and, because of that, sometimes it is very hard to express the criteria weights with crisp numbers. Therefore, the application of the Grey System Theory, i.e., grey numbers, in this case, is very convenient when it comes to determination of the criteria weights with partially known information. Besides, the criteria weights have a significant role in the multiple criteria decision-making process. Many ordinary multiple criteria decision-making methods are adapted for using grey numbers, and this is the case in this article as well. A new grey extension of the certain multiple criteria decision-making methods for the determination of the criteria weights is proposed. Therefore, the article aims to propose a new extension of the Step-wise Weight Assessment Ratio Analysis (SWARA) and PIvot Pairwise Relative Criteria Importance Assessment (PIPRECIA) methods adapted for group decision-making. In the proposed approach, attitudes of decision-makers are transformed into grey group attitudes, which allows taking advantage of the benefit that grey numbers provide over crisp numbers. The main advantage of the proposed approach in relation to the use of crisp numbers is the ability to conduct different analyses, i.e., considering different scenarios, such as pessimistic, optimistic, and so on. By varying the value of the whitening coefficient, different weights of the criteria can be obtained, and it should be emphasized that this approach gives the same weights as in the case of crisp numbers when the whitening coefficient has a value of 0.5. In addition, in this approach, the grey number was formed based on the median value of collected responses because it better maintains the deviation from the normal distribution of the collected responses. The application of the proposed approach was considered through two numerical illustrations, based on which appropriate conclusions were drawn.
