Data confidence 70 medium

How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

We give a new application of both notions of a soft set and of a fuzzy soft set to the effective management of stock-out situation. We construct a model to track the remaining raw materials in stock at the end of the first week (or first month) by using soft sets theory. Then we introduce an algorithm for factors influencing stock management using the notion of a fuzzy soft set. If we use these soft set and fuzzy soft set models at the same time, we can more accurately track the stock-out situations of raw materials.
