An extensive literature review shows that Information Systems (IS) are changed and eventually replaced by substitutes under the influence of productivity, popularity, and specialisation of IS along with associated available ...

In recent years, machine learning techniques have been widely applied for credit rating. To make a rational comparison of performance of different learning-based credit rating models, we focused on those models that are ...

In this chapter, the recent results for the analysis of local fractional calculus are considered for the first time. The local fractional derivative (LFD) and the local fractional integral (LFI) in the fractional (real and ...

Being the most complex physical system in the universe, life, at all scales requires the understanding of the massive complexity including its origin, structure, dynamic, adaptation and organization. Both the number of ...

In this chapter we present a framework and a calculus on fractals. The sug-gested equation has been solved and applied in physics and dynamics.

Modern science having embarked on the thorough and accurate interpretation of natural and physical phenomena has proven to provide successful models for the analysis of complex systems and harnessing of control over the ...

This chapter deals with some existence and uniqueness results for a class of coupled systems for nonlinear k-generalized -Hilfer fractional differential equations with boundary and terminal conditions. Our results are ...

Cyber attacks launched by individuals and/or supported by nation states have increased due to the prevalence of information technologies at critical infrastructure of the states. In this chapter, such attacks and consecutive ...

Fractional differences for image enhancement are revisited and the general methodology is illustrated in this chapter. Several fractional differences are theoretically analyzed and numerically compared. The weight coefficients ...

The porous medium which groundwater flows in is heterogeneous at all scales. This complicates the simulation of groundwater flow. Fractional derivatives, because of their non-locality property, can reduce the scale effects ...
