In recent years, evidential reasoning (ER) has provided an effective means to deal with uncertain information depicted by probabilistic linguistic terms sets (PLTSs) during fusion. However, it is worth noting that due to the differences in decision makers’ preferences and understanding of linguistic terms, there is a significant difference between the level of ER and the term in PLTSs, which hinders further development of ER in PLTSs. To fill this gap, this study modifies the existing ER algorithm with linguistic correlation and introduces it to multiple attribute group decision-making (MAGDM) problems within PLTSs. First, the correlations between different linguistic terms are defined based on the expressive preferences of decision-makers. Second, the correlation between different linguistic terms is integrated into the original ER to reduce the contradiction caused by expressive preferences. Moreover, linguistic correlation is also involved in the calculation of reliability to adjust the distance measure, which can reduce the unreliability caused by the preferences expressed by decision-makers. Then, nonlinear programming models are conducted to drive expert reliability. Thereafter, the modified ER algorithm is employed to integrate expert opinions into a comprehensive evaluation of alternatives. Finally, an illustrative example of an industry evaluation problem is conducted to verify the robustness and validity of the proposed method.

Since traffic congestion during peak hours has become the norm in daily life, research on short-term traffic flow forecasting has attracted widespread attention that can alleviate urban traffic congestion. However, the existing research ignores the uncertainty of short-term traffic flow forecasting, which will affect the accuracy and robustness of traffic flow forecasting models. Therefore, this paper proposes a short-term traffic flow forecasting algorithm combining the cloud model and the fuzzy inference system in an uncertain environment, which uses the idea of the cloud model to process the traffic flow data and describe its randomness and fuzziness at the same time. First, the fuzzy c-means algorithm is selected to carry out cluster analysis on the original traffic flow data, and the number and parameter values of the initial membership function of the system are obtained. Based on the cloud reasoning algorithm and the cloud rule generator, an improved fuzzy reasoning system is proposed for short-term traffic flow predictions. The reasoning system cannot only capture the uncertainty of traffic flow data, but it also can describe temporal dependencies well. Finally, experimental results indicate that the proposed model has a better prediction accuracy and better stability, which reduces 0.6106 in RMSE, reduces 0.281 in MAE, and reduces 0.0022 in MRE compared with the suboptimal comparative methods.

In practical linguistic multi-criteria group decision-making (MCGDM) problems, words may indicate different meanings for various decision makers (DMs), and a high level of group consensus indicates that most of the group members are satisfied with the final solution. This study aims at developing a novel framework that considers the personalized individual semantics (PISs) and group consensus of DMs to tackle linguistic single-valued neutrosophic MCGDM problems. First, a novel discrimination measure for linguistic single-valued neutrosophic numbers (LSVNNs) is proposed, based on which a discrimination-based optimization model is built to assign personalized numerical scales (PNSs). Second, an extended consensus-based optimization model is constructed to identify the weights of DMs considering the group consensus. Then, the overall evaluations of all the alternatives are obtained based on the LSVNN aggregation operator to identify the ranking of alternatives. Finally, the results of the illustrative example, sensitivity and comparative analysis are presented to verify the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed method.
... To represent the linguistic decision information accurately, Zhang et al. [18] proposed the linguistic distribution assessment (LDA) method, in which symbolic proportions are assigned to the linguistic terms in a linguistic term set. The LDA method is a generalization of the two-tuple linguistic method and probabilistic linguistic term sets, and defined as a set of binary relationships between linguistic variables and their symbolic probabilities [19,20]. Compared with other linguistic computing methods, the LDA method can efficiently represent uncertain information and reflect the real experience of decision makers [21,22]. ...

... This setting is appropriate for certain use cases, but often, the cognitive demands in document processing emerge with longer text. In applied settings, the aim is to ease timeconsuming tasks, e.g., in health care to reduce documentation time (Hou et al. 2024), and in legal and administrative sectors to categorize documents and extract relevant information (Valvoda and Cotterell 2024). So far, the applicability of feature attribution methods and their evaluation has not been sufficiently studied for long documents. ...

... This method helps in the development of automated systems for processing fiction texts. Shulzhuk (2019) and Wang et al. (2023) indicate the importance of the study of small genres in the study of literary features. The approach covered in this study complements this by showing the applications of the frame theory to the analysis of larger fiction texts and the discovery of deep linguistic connections within them. ...

... The continuous increase in the number of motor vehicles has brought many problems to society, such as traffic congestion, a waste of resources, economic losses, excessive commuting times, and frequent traffic accidents. In addition, the pollution caused by the large number of cars may threaten human health [1]. Since traffic flow can reflect the number of vehicles that pass a point in a certain period of time [2], accurate traffic flow forecasting is of great significance to management departments and individuals, which can optimize the design and operation of transportation systems to proposed a method to predict the spatio-temporal characteristics of short-term traffic flow by combing the k-nearest neighbor algorithm and bidirectional long-short-term memory network model. ...

... Fuzzy neural networks can be classified into type-1 and type-2 FNNs based on the type of fuzzy sets they utilize. While type-1 FNNs offer a more compact model structure and lower training costs, their performance is less effective compared to type-2 FNNs when dealing with complex uncertainty problems due to the crisp membership grades [6][7][8][9]. The introduction of the interval type-2 FNN [10] sparked a surge in applications of this type [11][12][13]. ...
