    Enhancing Meteorological Drought Modeling Accuracy Using Hybrid Boost Regression Models: A Case Study from the Aegean Region Türkiye
    (Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI), 2023) Enes Gul; Efthimia Staiou; Mir Jafar Sadegh Safari; Babak Vaheddoost; Vaheddoost, Babak; Safari, Mir Jafar Sadegh; Gul, Enes; Staiou, Efthymia
    The impact of climate change has led to significant changes in hydroclimatic patterns and continuous stress on water resources through frequent wet and dry spells. Hence understanding and effectively addressing the escalating impact of climate change on hydroclimatic patterns especially in the context of meteorological drought necessitates precise modeling of these phenomena. This study focuses on assessing the accuracy of drought modeling using the well-established Standard Precipitation Index (SPI) in the Aegean region of Türkiye. The study utilizes monthly precipitation data from six stations in Cesme Kusadasi Manisa Seferihisar Selcuk and Izmir at Kucuk Menderes Basin covering the period from 1973 to 2020. The dataset is divided into three sets training (60%) validation (20%) and testing (20%) sets. The study aims to determine the SPI-3 SPI-6 and SPI-12 using a multi-station prediction technique. Three boosting regression models (BRMs) namely Extreme Gradient Boosting (XgBoost) Adaptive Boosting (AdaBoost) and Gradient Boosting (GradBoost) were employed and optimized with the help of the Weighted Mean of Vectors (INFO) technique. Model performances were then evaluated with the Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) Mean Absolute Error (MAE) Mean Absolute Percentage Error (MAPE) Coefficient of Determination (R2) and the Willmott Index (WI). Results demonstrated a distinct superiority of the XgBoost model over AdaBoost and GradBoost in terms of accuracy. During the test phase the XgBoost model achieved RMSEs of 0.496 0.429 and 0.389 for SPI-3 SPI-6 and SPI-12 respectively. The WIs were 0.899 0.901 and 0.825 for SPI-3 SPI-6 and SPI-12 respectively. These are considerably lower than the corresponding values obtained by the other models. Yet the comparative statistical analysis further underscores the effectiveness of XgBoost in modeling extended periods of drought in the Aegean region of Türkiye. © 2023 Elsevier B.V.

    (SPRINGER-VERLAG SINGAPORE PTE LTD, 2022) Buse Atakay; Ozge Onbasili; Simay Ozcet; Irem Akbulak; Hatice Birce Cevher; Humeyra Alcaz; Ismail Gordesli; Mert Paldrak; Efthimia Staiou; Ozcet, Simay; Alcaz, Humeyra; Cevher, Hatice Birce; Onbasili, Ozge; Atakay, Buse; Akbulak, Irem; Staiou, Efthimia; NM Durakbasa; MG Gencyilmaz
    Spare parts inventory management is crucial in the success of a service providing company. In this study the spare parts of a service provider in the automotive sector are classified according to their characteristics in groups and different inventory control policies are applied to the categorized groups. The Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) one of the Multi-Criteria Decision Making (MCDM) methods is used to classify the spare parts into groups. As a result of the application of AHP classes of spare parts are determined according to the VED analysis classifying the spare parts according to their criticality. Furthermore the ABC analysis performed by the company was improved by using cost and demand criteria. After performing both analysis three new classes of spare parts are determined with the combination of ABC and VED classification techniques. For each class an appropriate inventory control policy is decided according to the spare parts importance and criticality. Based on the literature review the (R S s) inventory control policy is chosen to be applied in each class taking into consideration the review period order up-to-level and reorder point of items. In the inventory control model the review period for the same class items is assumed to be constant based on the information provided by the company. For verification purposes necessary cost calculations including total ordering and holding costs are performed by means of Microsoft Excel. In order to be able to vastly observe the system behavior different cost scenarios are generated by increasing and decreasing the service level and review period of the system. Using OptQuest an optimization tool embedded into ARENA simulation software the different scenarios were analyzed and the total minimum cost is reached. For supporting the daily operations of the company a user-friendly decision support system is built where the end-user can easily add/remove spare parts to/from the system classify them and compare the results of inventory control policies with the current system. The DSS will also assist the company to manage and control their real-time inventory and perform spare parts stock level tracking and decide when to place orders.

    A Literature Review on Supplier Selection Problem and Fuzzy Logic
    (SPRINGER INTERNATIONAL PUBLISHING AG, 2022) Mert Paldrak; Gamze Erdem; Melis Tan Tacoglu; Simge Guclukol; Efthimia Staiou; Tan Tacoğlu, Melis; Paldrak, Mert; Guclukol, Simge; Staiou, Efthimia; Tacoglu, Melis Tan; Erdem, Gamze; C Kahraman; AC Tolga; SC Onar; S Cebi; B Oztaysi; IU Sari
    Given the recent increasing competition in global market supplier selection and evaluation has attracted a great deal of attention especially at academic levels. Supplier selection problem is a complex problem since there exist a great number of unpredictable and uncontrollable factors which have a huge impact on decision-making process. Due to this complexity there are several criteria that must be taken into consideration such as cost quality on-time delivery proximity of suppliers long-term relationship etc. Although some of these criteria (quantitative) can be expressed using pure numeric scales some (qualitative) are linguistic due to the human assessments which contain some degree of subjectivity. Since involvement of human assessment causes vagueness for deterministic models the authors apply fuzzy logic which enables the decision makers to be able to convert their linguistic expressions into fuzzy numbers with the help of fuzzy membership functions. Considering that fuzzy logic plays a vital role in solving multi-criteria supplier selection problem this paper aims to present a review of supplier selection problem and its relation with fuzzy logic. In this paper several studies that highlight supplier selection problem and the importance of fuzzy logic involvement in the problem have been reviewed. An analysis of multi-criteria decision-making methods for supplier selection problem is conducted.

    Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) and Goal Programming Approach for a Real-Life Supplier Selection Problem
    (Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH, 2024) Pınar Erdinç; Zeynep Buduneli; Çağla Gerşil; Ceylin Erton; Mert Paldrak; Efthimia Staiou; Erton, Ceylin; Erdinç, Pınar; Paldrak, Mert; Gerşil, Çağla; Staiou, Efthymia; Buduneli, Zeynep; N.M. Durakbasa , M.G. Gençyılmaz
    In today’s intricate and competitive business environment the selection of suppliers plays a pivotal role in determining the success and efficiency of a company’s operations. Supplier selection is a multifaceted decision-making process that involves evaluating and comparing various factors such as quality cost lead time and reliability. To address the complexities inherent in this process organizations turn to advanced decision support methodologies. This study delves into a real-life supplier selection problem and explores the application of two prominent decision-making approaches: the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) and Goal Programming. AHP provides a structured framework for systematically analysing complex decision criteria and preferences while Goal Programming facilitates the optimization of multiple conflicting objectives. The objective is the integration of AHP and Goal Programming to offer decision-makers a robust framework for analysing prioritizing and optimizing complex supplier selection problems. Effective supplier evaluation is crucial for the success of garment manufacturing facilities as it impacts the quality cost and timely delivery of raw materials and supplies required for production. AHP provides a structured approach to decision-making by breaking down complex decisions into a hierarchy of criteria and alternatives and enabling decision-makers to assign weights to each criterion based on their relative importance. Goal Programming on the other hand is a mathematical programming technique that helps decision-makers to find the best possible solution that satisfies multiple often conflicting objectives. This integration enables them to achieve a balanced and well-informed decision-making process aligned with the strategic goals and objectives of the organization. The combination of AHP and Goal Programming can provide a powerful decision-making framework for evaluating suppliers in garment manufacturing facilities. © 2024 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
