the aim of this paper is to introduce and study a new concept ofstrong double $(a)_ {delta}$-convergent sequence offuzzy numbers with respect to an orlicz function and also someproperties of the resulting sequence spaces of fuzzy   numbers areexamined. in addition, we define the double$(a,delta)$-statistical convergence of fuzzy  numbers andestablish some connections between the spaces of stron...

residue number system (rns) is a non-weighted number system for integer number arithmetic, which is based on the residues of a number to a certain set of numbers called module set. the main characteristics and advantage of residue number system is reducing carry propagation in calculations. the elimination of carry propagation leads to the possibility of maximizing parallel processing and reduc...

In this study, we consider two different inequivalent formulations of the logistic difference equation $x_{n+1}= beta x_n(1- x_n), n=0,1,..., $ where $x_n$ is a sequence of fuzzy numbers and $beta$ is a positive fuzzy number. The major contribution of this paper is to study the existence, uniqueness and global behavior of the solutions for two corresponding equations, using the concept of Huku...

This paper presents an area-based approach to ranking fuzzy numbers in fuzzy decision making. To ensure that all the information that a fuzzy number has is adequately considered, the concepts of the absolute area and the degree of deviation of a fuzzy number are integrated into the process of comparing and ranking fuzzy numbers. To help the decision maker better address the risk inherent in the...

The study of parasite body size is an important approach to understand the different patterns of helminth community structure, once it is usually analysed using only numerical descriptors which do not capture size heterogeneity among parasite species. In the present study, we compared the pattern in the helminth community of three sympatric wild rodent species Akodon cursor, A. montensis and Ol...

The comparison of parasite numbers or intensities between different samples of hosts is a common and important question in most parasitological studies. The main question is whether the values in one sample tend to be higher (or lower) than the values of the other sample. We argue that it is more appropriate to test a null hypothesis about the probability that an individual host from one sample...
