"An Enhanced Method for MCDM Based on Improved Fuzzy Decision Map",
Proceedings of the 6th International Conference on Management of Emergent Digital EcoSystems, New York, pp. 56-61, 2014.
AbstractFuzzy Decision Map (FDM) method was proposed in 2006 to solve multicriteria decision making problems (MCDM) having dependence and feedback among criteria. FDM provides a simpler approach to solve such problems compared with the method of Analytical Network Process (ANP) developed in 1996. ANP is a general form of the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP). On the other hand, FDM is only employed to derive evaluation criteria. It can't be used for ranking alternatives as usually required in many real world MCDM problems. The aim of this work is to enhance the FDM structure to be able to make a proper decision for complex decision making problem by selecting best alternative. The enhanced FDM method should take into consideration the alternative level. A case study was carried out to demonstrate the proposed model.

"Enhancements to knowledge discovery framework of SOPHIA textual case-based reasoning",
Egyptian Informatics Journal, vol. 15, pp. 211-220, 2014.
AbstractMany approaches were presented recently for developing Textual Case-Based
Reasoning (TCBR) applications. One of the successful approaches is SOPHisticated
Information Analysis (SOPHIA), which is distinguished by its ability to work without prior
knowledge engineering, without domain dependency and without language dependency.
SOPHIA is based on the distributional document clustering approach, which facilitates an
advanced and rich knowledge discovery framework for case-based retrieval.
