Mathematical Analysis of the Problems faced by the People With Disabilities (PWDs)

TL;DR

This book applies fuzzy cognitive relational maps to analyze socio-economic issues faced by people with disabilities, including rural and caretaker-related problems, providing a comprehensive mathematical framework for understanding these challenges.

Contribution

Introduction of new FCRM bimodels and SFCMs for analyzing complex socio-economic problems of PWDs, including rural and caretaker issues.

Findings

Identified key socio-economic challenges faced by PWDs.

Demonstrated the effectiveness of fuzzy cognitive models in problem analysis.

Provided data-driven suggestions for policy and support improvements.

Abstract

This book has eight chapters. Chapter one just gives references to the materials used in this book. Analysis of the collected date is carried out in chapter two. Chapter three introduces a New Fuzzy Cognitive Relational Maps (FCRMs)bimodel to study the socio-economic problems of PWDs. Economic problems faced by PWDs is analysed in chapter four using Special Fuzzy Cognitive Maps (SFCMs) model introduced by the authors. Chapter five carries out the study of interrelated problems faced by the PWDs and the caretakers. In chapter six we use the new FCRM bimodel to analyse the problems faced by the rural PWDs. This data was collected from charity homes run by NGOs and others in and near Chennai is carried out in chapter seven. Conclusions based on this study are given the end of this chapter. The final chapter gives the suggestions and conclusions from our study in chapter two to six and also from the interviews and discussions with them.
