Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Due to apparent flexibility of Intuitionistic Fuzzy Set (IFS) concepts in dealing with the imprecision or uncertainty, these are proving to be quite useful in many application areas for a more human consistent reasoning under imperfectly defined facts and imprecise knowledge. In this paper, we apply notions of entropy and intuitionistic fuzzy sets to present a new fuzzy decision-making approach called intuitionistic fuzzy entropy measure for selection and ranking the suppliers with respect to the attributes. An entropy-based model is formulated and applied to a real case study aiming to examine the rankings of suppliers. Furthermore, the weights for each alternative, with respect to the criteria, are calculated using intuitionistic fuzzy entropy measure. The supplier with the highest weight is selected as the best alternative. This proposed model helps the decision-makers in better understanding of the weight of each criterion without relying on the mere expertise.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
