‎a new method for the defuzzification of fuzzy numbers is developed in this paper. it is well-known, defuzzification methods allow us to find aggregative crisp numbers or crisp set for fuzzy numbers. but different fuzzy numbers are often converted into one crisp number. in this case the loss of essential information is possible. it may result in inadequate final conclusions, for example, expert...

abstract background and purpose: since protein a is considered an important protein from medical, medicinal, genetic engineering, and biotechnology point of view, the present study attempted to investigate and determine to what extent protein a is produced through regression, in addition to the production conditions of the protein. thus, a figure was introduced as for the estimation of the amou...

Ranking fuzzy numbers plays a very important role in linguistic decision making and other fuzzy application systems. In spite of many ranking methods, no one can rank fuzzy numbers with human intuition consistently in all cases. Shortcoming are found in some of the convenient methods for ranking triangular fuzzy numbers such as the coefficient of variation (CV index), distance between fuzzy set...

in this paper, we study the existence, asymptotic behavior of the positive solutions of a fuzzy nonlinear difference equation$$ x_{n+1}=frac{ax_n+x_{n-1}}{b+x_{n-1}}, n=0,1,cdots,$$ where $(x_n)$ is a sequence of positive fuzzy number, $a, b$ are positive fuzzy numbers and the initial conditions $x_{-1}, x_0$ are positive fuzzy numbers.

In this paper, firstly, we gain some basic properties and characterization theorems of the differential and local sub-differential of the fuzzy mapping, obtain an important result that the local sub-differential of fuzzy mapping is an empty set or a convex set. Secondly, we generalize the concept of local differentiability of fuzzy mapping, and obtain some basic properties about the concept. At...

In the fuzzy arithmetic, the definitions of addition and multiplication of fuzzy numbers are based on Zadeh’s extension principle. From theoretical and practical points of view, this multiplication of fuzzy numbers owns several unnatural properties. Recently, to avoid this shortcoming, a new multiplicative operation of product type is introduced, the so-called cross-product of fuzzy numbers. Th...

Based on credibilistic value-at-risk (CVaR) of regularfuzzy variable, we introduce a new CVaR reduction method fortype-2 fuzzy variables. The reduced fuzzy variables arecharacterized by parametric possibility distributions. We establishsome useful analytical expressions for mean values and secondorder moments of common reduced fuzzy variables. The convex properties of second order moments with ...
