The application of horizontal membership functions to fuzzy arithmetic operations
نویسنده
چکیده
The fuzzy numbers arise in decision making, control theory, fuzzy systems and approximate reasoning problems. The operations on them are becoming more and more popular. The aim of this paper is to present the fuzzy arithmetic operations on fuzzy numbers in a new way, using the horizontal membership functions (HMFs). The horizontal membership functions enable to introduce uncertain, interval or fuzzy variable-values together with crisp values in arithmetic operations without using Zadeh's extension principle. Thus, a relatively easy aggregation of crisp and uncertain knowledge has become possible. The numerical example of this developed method is also provided.

Prediction of Sulfate Scale Depositions in Oilfield Operations Using Arithmetic of LR Fuzzy Numbers
In this study fuzzy arithmetic is presented as a tool to tackle the prediction of the amount of barium, strontium and calcium sulfates scales in oilfield operations. Since the shape of fuzzy numbers’ membership functions is a spread representative of the whole possible values for a special model parameter, fuzzy numbers are able to consider the uncertainties in parameter determinations and thus...
متن کاملARITHMETIC-BASED FUZZY CONTROL
Fuzzy control is one of the most important parts of fuzzy theory for which several approaches exist. Mamdani uses $alpha$-cuts and builds the union of the membership functions which is called the aggregated consequence function. The resulting function is the starting point of the defuzzification process. In this article, we define a more natural way to calculate the aggregated consequence funct...
متن کاملFuzzy Number Addition with the Application of Horizontal Membership Functions
The paper presents addition of fuzzy numbers realised with the application of the multidimensional RDM arithmetic and horizontal membership functions (MFs). Fuzzy arithmetic (FA) is a very difficult task because operations should be performed here on multidimensional information granules. Instead, a lot of FA methods use α-cuts in connection with 1-dimensional classical interval arithmetic that...
متن کاملArithmetic Aggregation Operators for Interval-valued Intuitionistic Linguistic Variables and Application to Multi-attribute Group Decision Making
The intuitionistic linguistic set (ILS) is an extension of linguisitc variable. To overcome the drawback of using single real number to represent membership degree and non-membership degree for ILS, the concept of interval-valued intuitionistic linguistic set (IVILS) is introduced through representing the membership degree and non-membership degree with intervals for ILS in this paper. The oper...

Quad rotor is a renowned underactuated Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) with widespread military and civilian applications. Despite its simple structure, the vehicle suffers from inherent instability. Therefore, control designers always face formidable challenge in stabilization and control goal. In this paper fuzzy membership functions of the quad rotor’s fuzzy controllers are optimized using nat...
